    I think being young definitely helped me , when you have less responsibilities and can still live off your parents you can put more time into your craft , when you have to work a job and pay bills you’re more tired , have less time to create etc , I think if you’re young definitely make the most of it and grind

    I'd say once you are a rapper's producer as the right hand, that's when you can produce the song in a more complex beat because assuming you already have the vocals, you just throw stuff on top that fits instead of not having space at the beginning. Idk, just throwing this out there in case someone is always producing crazy beats

    Saying my beats aren’t the proplem when it comes to getting songs, even when I’m getting songs, but the problem being my networking is really helpful. I always knew I wasn’t active enough on getting myself out there but hearing it from Rio is just perfect.

This video doesn't even just apply to music which is the best part, it really applies to everything regardless of what you decide to do in your life. This really helped me switch my mind up about a lot of things. Luv bro
