please let’s make politics go out of style again,
they’ve all let me down tbh,
the 2020’s era is cooked,
I miss rooting for bands and artists and cultural renegades

Me, walking to the park right now to exercise:
Young guy walks past me in a black hoodie w a girl beside him:
“Sir, can I have a dollar?”
Me: “no, I don’t have one”
Him: “f*ck you.”
Girl: [laughs]

I two ppl told me last night that I was the best dj they’ve ever heard
Looked me dead in my eyes & soul
Both were 50yrs+ men,
New Yorker NJ cats, at a wedding
I don’t want credit for this, I just want to say that those complements mean a lot to me.
They give me the stamina to keep going further and harder, because behind the scenes there is a lot of hardship and pain
when bringing my best to every dj set.
I still feel like a no name dj
I still feel undiscovered,
and a still a struggling artist / innovator
I still contemplate quitting and leaving this whole sh* behind all the time,
crushed by the pressure of what this journey has entailed
I know the greatness of these complements belong to God, Christ,
The Holy Spirit- the Greatness is all theirs.
But when I’m DJing in the small corner of a random country club
in a small pocket of the NJ/NY boarder,
in a place that a famous enormous DJ would probably barf
and then two elder men,
on their own separate occasion,
come to me to deliver this message-
thinking that these men who have heard a lifetime of DJ’s -
give me this sing of conviction, acknowledgement,
and confidence…
Makes me feel seen and vindicated to keep carrying on to continue on this journey where the odds are now more against the musician/artist than ever before that I’ve seen in my lifetime
The words to me are like signs from God to keep on.
