I Love Music. But I'm Not Gonna

I'm A Fan Of Hip-hop And I Love It, I By No Means Am An Expert On It.

I Don't Really Have Guilty Pleasures. Anything Musically That I Fully, Fully Believe, Is Good No Matter Who The Artist Is, No Matter What The Marketing Is Behind It, I Stand Pretty Firm.

When You're Younger, You Get Shoved A Lot. You Don't Really Have A Say-so.

I Love Music. But I'm Not Gonna Work Myself To Death. If There Ever Comes A Point Where I'm Not Enjoying It, Then I'm Not Gonna Do It Anymore. I've Promised Myself That. I've Written It Down On Paper And Signed A Contract.

I Always Have Looked At "indie" As A Term Of "independence." Never Associated A Sonic Gesture With That In The Same Way That Pop Music Has Always Meant "popular" To Me It Didn't Define A Sound. And I Think Now That Has Been The Context For Things. If Something Is Indie, It Almost Has This Sonic Association With It, Or Pop Has Become This Term Of Shame Almost, Like, Bubblegum Sweet Pop.
