A lot of ppl crash out in the music industry cuz they prioritize acknowledgment over the art. Some of us really love this shit tho, even when nobody’s looking.

sometimes we just need time to think. part of the inspo & motivation on our next life moves are creatrd from being still. stillness creates reflection & intention.

calling ‘beatmaker’ a producer is so offensive imo

Your biggest fan is a stranger. Your biggest hater is someone you know.

I wish more artists would put as much time and thought into their music as they do into their rollouts and events.

don't forget where you come from helps you know where you're going

much respect to knxlwedge…this guy has been releasing beat tapes for years he dgaf ‘bout rappers , just working with paak. he followed his vision, he has a Grammy now

Life is too short to not live in your purpose.

John Coltrane & Miles Davis in the studio

Herbie Hancock is 85 and plays 90+ min sets w/o breaks, doesn’t hide in green rooms, chats w/ everyone, eats the same food, takes photos, and catches the same 1am bus as his band. He’s the blueprint, musically, and also in carrying your legacy w/o being an egotistical jackass.

They not gonna seize your paycheck and send you to jail if you don’t recoup the distro deal bro take the bread

j dilla speaking on music and money

the reason is jealousy & ego. it’s sad but true. imagine hating someone because they doing what you want to do, without you.

making beats, producing, making photos, videos, writing and recording songs, doing graff, i love it all l, because it’s all hip hop i love and am honored to be a part of - I’m an artist.

we all have a form of 'time' most people just aren't a priority. we gotta stay intentional with what & who we give our time to.

If you’re in the music business and you’re smart, they will HATE you for it because they know their old bag of tricks won’t work on you.

dilla is not “lo-fi.”

Don't rush your plans. It took God 7 days to create the world

I don’t think too much about it, I just get the job done.
