“Do you like A$AP Rocky? I’ve been a big Rocky fan ever since the release of his Youtube video, ‘Peso’. Before that, I really didn’t understand any of his work. Too chopped, too screwed. It was on ‘Peso’ where A$AP Rocky’s presence became more apparent. I think ‘Bass’ is his undisputed masterpiece. It’s an epic meditation on swagger.

Little bit of Wisdom from Jackmaster… making me feel OK about doing the same:

And I think maybe I’d like a wee bit of that sort of thing. I know the only way I can get there is if I make some tunes. And then I think, this is not the right reason to make music. You shouldn’t make music because you want to be famous or because you want to make more money or get more gigs—you do it to express yourself. If you’re not doing it to express yourself, then what comes out is not going to be honest. It’s going to be bullshit. I think eventually one day I’ll make a record, but it’ll be because I need to do it as an outlet.

As soon as I find it, I want to abandon it.
