I Think I've Always Felt

I Think People Have Been Obsessed With The Wrong Question, Which Is How Do We Make People Pay For Music? What If We Started Asking, How Do We Let People Pay For Music?

Asking For Help With Shame Says: You Have The Power Over Me. Asking With Condescension Says: I Have The Power Over You. But Asking For Help With Gratitude Says: We Have The Power To Help Each Other.

You Know, There Are So Many Snarky Angry Critics Out There Who Are Just Sort Of Looking To Tear Down Whoever Is Getting Talked About.

I Had Very Literal Parents And I Wanted To Survive With Metaphor And Art, And There Was A Real Sense Of Shame Around It.

What I Have Found Is, So Much Of That Is Like A Chinese Finger Trap: The More You Play To The Dark, The More You Will Get Trapped In The Dark, And If You Just Play To The Light And Focus On The People That Don't Misunderstand You And Focus On The Audience That Does Celebrate You And Focus On The People Who Aren't Trying To Tear You Down, All That Other Stuff Eventually Erases Itself Because It Has Nothing To Feed On.
