Might have to redo it this year for the big 50โฆ.

Saw some really scary shit late last night that made me realize how fragile life can be and how quickly things can turn . Iโm grateful for my life and all the people in it.
Tell somebody you love them today.

PinkSiifu, Charlie Hunter, Kenny Banks, Marcus Ninnie, Yungmorpheus, and Liv.eโฆ.. LOVE was in the building๐คฒ๐พ๐คฒ๐พ๐คฒ๐พ
Had a dope meeting/convo with a legend yesterday that got me feeling blessed/prepared for my next phase of the glow-up. Always dope to soak up game.

If thereโs one person Iโd wanna meet just to tell them thank you for their reigning influence, itโd be this guy. From keeping the blues alive to providing a safe space and haven to be creatively free as an artist. (
@ElectricLady
).
I love you Jimi. Happy Fucking Birfday.
In midst of these apparent times of uncertainty, the silver-lining in all this is that Iโve been working on my next solo release... and I have never felt so free creatively.....
Thankful for my life. My momma. My music. My homies. My lady. My cat. My crib. My faith. My sanity (whats left of it lol). My plate (later).
Really sit back and look at what you have. Look back at the journey and all the wins and the obstacles. Look at how far youโve come ๐คฒ๐พ๐คฒ๐พ๐คฒ๐พ
