The Point

Being an artist isn’t about fame, having stuff, or being celebrated. It’s about what I have to say. I’m not particularly concerned about who knows me or if I’m a great singer. Whoever knows me is supposed to know me and if I happened to sing decently, that’s a bonus. Mostly, I’ve worked hard at my craft so I can stand listening to myself.

The point for me is to be heard. My voice needs an outlet. What I have to say on the larger scale of life drives me in an almost neurotic way at times. I have to communicate in words and melodies. At times it’s in writing and at times it’s in being amplified so my voice is bigger than life. Performing on a sound system in public is vital to my nature.

There is no choice for me when it comes to being an artist. It’s what I am and what I do. Whether my genre is popular or not, whether I make money at it or not, whether I have an opinion about it or not, I have to sing and write and be heard. It’s a soul thing. It’s what I was created for. Being an artist is pretty much the only reason I see that I’m on the planet.

Blessings!
