Day 6 of chapter 2 - true colours re-surfacing

What is it with the nature of restriction hammering every writer I know? All these rules and conventions that tie you down to one method and one way of doing thins? what's up with that? The world would be so much more of a colourful place if everyone was brave enough to be themselves and follow their own path in this life instead of going in the tracks that are already given to them... proud to say I'm designing my own life not living this stuff on a script written by somebody other then my very own self, simply because nobody could ever know and understand my story better then I do. So why take guidance from the outside if everything important is on the inside?

It is important that we don't sound the same as artists no matter how similar we may be. Individuality makes it easier to sift through the traffic of all the sudden media saturation without dismissing potential for rubbish. It takes a while before a person understands what staying true to themselves actually means.

Today I started writing to a Jhene Aiko instrumental doing a cover of hers for my next project. Her stranger instrumental took me back to where this thing was much more simple then it has turned out to be. There was once less noise, less chaos in the scene as my first understanding of rap as a musical extension of what poetry is. A lot has changed since that time, but reconnecting with those roots inspired much in me bringing out my wildest creative extensions since Subliminal dissapeared.

Thinking of bringing in my personal articulation of what the concept of insane artistry means to me.... Had to grow in my craft and experiment with a number of elements playing around with ideas to eventually getting to figure myself out and where I fit in the space of rhymes and sound. I have fun with what I do and I'll continue doing it coz it just feels right.... propa!!
