Jan 9, 2016...ever feel extremely insecure about their art?
99% of the people I show my music to say they love it, but then I'm left wondering do they really or am I just being trolled most of the time online or are they just saying it because they feel obligated cause I'm doing s--- for this SXN, and are people IRL just too nice to say anything bad about it to my face?
and then i see people like Jet blow up instantly when they post things and get responses from their favorites on stuff like twitter, and TONS of views and s---, while I feel like I'm always peddling my stuff all over the place, struggling to even get a response or anything... even here, and can't seem to grow my fanbase online or find people willing to feature that are actually gonna be quality
I also instantly get torn down when people like JMG say some negative s--- to me about my music (knowing he's a fucktard of a troll that I should ignore). Idk, makes me want to stop working on anything sometimes
s--- can get depressing fam
anyways, not sure what I expect out of this thread but I just wanted to vent because it's been bothering me for the better part of two years now

I've also learned that if there's something I feel like I should/could be doing to make it better, to should just do it and stop saying I'll do it next track/project, and stop procrastinating it, because in the long run it becomes easier and second nature, and everything just sees massive improvements with more time like that put into refining everything.Ordinary Joel, Bains and Narsh like this. -

I'm a hypocrite for saying this, but don't stress too much about whats happening to the next man, and focus on getting better. Its easier said than done, I know, but its one of the most effective ways to get over that insecurity (for me, at least).
Btw, I legit did not mean to skip out on Autumn Storm. I thought it was a great project, and I sincerely regret not being able to make time for it. I apologize if that made you feel like I don't f--- with your music, cause that's absolutely not the caseOrdinary Joel, Cyreides and because the internet like this. -

if you're doing art for the soul purpose of someone else's opinion you might be doing it wrong.
Take Bishop Nehru as an example
He began posting in my home town of OFT when he was a youngin
His music was uninspiring basic boring odd future clone garbage
FF a couple years he has a collab album with DOOM
tldr: fml
