when i heard my tune playing i thought i'd left a tab open or something 😂 thank u so much man, i know u must get a tonne of music submissions for these. had been feelin a bit lost with stuff lately and this vid+hearin that has really helped 🙏
Yessss @benlem. Glad you saw this. Really dug the UK Hip Hop vibes on your Soundcloud, thanks for sending the music & supporting the channel in general - glad the video provided some energy your way.
Bro if you drew your pfp you’re really dope man keep being a dope creator in a generation full of consumption. That’s awesome msn I hope you keep doing what you love bro.
As an artist who is constantly deactivating my ig for weeks and reactivating when I’m “ready” to put more art back out there. I can honestly say I get roped back into the lack of feedback from users and I would be lying if I said it doesn’t make me feel like my creations aren’t good, but this was a gentle reminder that we all get in our heads/own way. JUST KEEP SWIMMING ! Love to you all
@@karacoldmusic what sucks is it’s a decent tool to put yourself out there, but sometimes it’s just work lol, so I feel you about not going back. Also I just listened to a few of your songs, they’re dope as hell! You should def stay creative whilst away from the socials
No way in hell do you get me.. . Every dam time I think I’m the ONLY human being who feels the way I feel.. I SEE other’s who relate clearly to me. I literally deleted my Instagram. I’m currently healing, and creating I’ll be back once I’m ready.
@@Girlyppop I love that for you ! You take all the time you need, ig will be there when you get back. Hell, who knows maybe you won’t go back and find a new outlet in life. I wish you the best on your healing journey! You’re not alone
I feel the same aswell. But I guess it ls cause we want others that we know to support us or at least engage with it. Alot of the time we want the approval And handclaps for our hardwork because we see others.thsts honestly 100% of wat it is.
I don't like when people -- usually future fans or future consumers -- say, "They came out of nowhere." No, there's probably a 5-10 years long process that went into that product, and just because you haven't previously heard of an artist or author or what-have-you, you owe it to the creator to do some research, and SEE what went into that phenomenon
My advice for anyone here. Create out of the joy of creating. Social media has his algorithm game on lock where it feels like you need to be online 24/7 and post 6 reels to stay relevant. Create at your own pace, some days will be better with the engagement and some days will be absolutely shit. But what I have learned is that no matter what happens. Be proud , be proud of making that piece again because you started with a blank canvas and somehow your imagination and execution worked hand in hand to create this very thing right in front of your eyes. I learned to channel back into the pure joy I get from creating art, no matter who looks at it . If you love what you are doing , dont wait for a short cut or cheat codes. Just keep on going, dont ever stop. And you will get there
But then what happens if it takes years like 10-20 years to get to where u want to be at after all the hard work u did that u enjoy doing instead doing it for the likes from others?
I "self-medicated" for more than twenty years as I (falsely) believed that I had to be high to be creative. I was terrified of getting sober, because my creativity means so much to me. I eventually knew I had to get completely sober whether my creativity was still there on the other side or not. I'm happy to say, I've been clean and sober since 1997 and am more creative than I've ever been.
@@bankrollcoreyour creativity is something we are born with/inherent to us so we are in our most creative state when truly in-tune with ourselves sober. I had same experience as above just not as long (7 years for me) but it’s actually wild how much more creative I am now sober vs being high. Night and day difference that can only be experienced when truly present with ourselves
That's such a good point about social media being your resume. Just show your work and not expect anything from anyone, post what you like because YOU like it. Great video bro!
Glad that the video hit for you, and thanks for taking the time to comment. Yeah that social media resume is a fact for creatives who are trying to get work in the same sector as their passion.
appreciate u putting this channel together, its lonely being an artist and hard to find inspirational and motivational energy without it being over-cringe with the cliche cinematic music, the way you format your videos together is very unique and im here to stay
Thanks, and I hear you massively on the cinematic music + cringe. Appreciate you taking the time to drop the support and feedback. As long as people are watching, I'll be here trying to make these as good as possible.
I'm a teen girl in high-school rlly struggling with finding myself and what i want to do with my life. I've always told myself i dont want to end up having a job that i dont enjoy. I have self-confidence issues and i rlly want to be able to express myself freely but with the times we're in now, its becoming rlly difficult. This video gave me a great boost to continue to tap in to my creativity and my inner self
I think my favorite part of all your videos is how real they are. They aren't these perfectly color graded, lighted rooms, where things are staged. It feels like you're actually in the room with us and we're just having a conversation. Please keep the videos like this they really add to the emotion and realness of each topic. ❤
Thanks Kara - yeah this one was particularly stripped back vibe (shot in my living room lol), so it's great to see and hear that it's not effecting how people are enjoying the work (and maybe even feeling a bit more relaxed even). Glad the videos are resonating with you, and good luck with your own album writing process - I'm a sub so I follow along the work.
i feel this lack of selfishness really often. the need to satisfy others before myself. im 21 yrs old and already think im too old to dedicate myself to my art, and maybe should just finish college and build that traditional, more encouraged path (people would like me to go that route). i dont have the courage or self esteem to go connect with other artists or share my work. really been down on myself lately over this shit. i dont have any opinions or positive messages at the moment (sry) but if someone feels the same way, just know youre not alone. this shit is hard, real hard
You should probably just stop, do the traditional, as you said. It's not even a question, if you are truly dedicated. If you're not clear, don't bother.
Hey man just wanted to leave a comment to tell you how much these videos help!! I stumbled on your channel last week and I'm binging your videos, they are great! Keep it up, and please know how much impact your videos make 🙏
haven't commented before but dude i love your videos !! as a young artist there's almost nothing more i want than one of these videos when im feeling unmotivated or lost - so please never stop these uploads !
That means a huge amount, so great to hear that they are connecting with people. Thanks for taking the time to drop the comment, and yeah as long as these videos are valuable to people out there I'll be here making them.
creatives all go through the same hurdles and obstacles, yet we all think that we are alone in that journey. you putting this video together is additive and necessary.
Concerning creativity and health practive this is absolutely true: My creative journey helps me to improve my spiritual journey I practice yoga, meditation, spa, sauna, I am more sober than ever eat healthy and go to bed early in order to wake up early in the morning . A creative process also means a strong discipline. My point of view is you can be sex drugs and rocknroll in the beginin g of your journey but the deeper you go to you creative process the wealthier you must be. Once again very good work.
I appreciate you and this content you put out for the creative community brother! I constantly revisit a lot if not every single one that hits my feed when I first tap on TH-cam and look for some positive and like minded creatives looking to explore the depths of this gift we get to experience. I THANK YOU 🙏🏾
That is so great to hear. Reading support like that or just hearing that the videos are valued by people like that, gives me huge energy to make the best stuff that I can my side. Thanks for supporting the channel, and taking the time to drop the words and kindness.
Thanks - I appreciate the support and the feedback, it matters to hear that these videos are resonating with people. So thanks for taking the time to drop the words.
Thank you!!! Every time I look back at my old work I realize it wasn’t my time. I often wonder why I’m not there yet but maybe in a few years I’ll look back at my current work with the answer.
Really glad this one connected for you, and I could create that resource to support your practice in some way. Thanks for taking the time to comment - it matters my side to read the support.
Reading stuff like that makes it more than worth it. Appreciate the support and love out here. Thanks AJ, cheers for taking the time to drop the comment.
i’m glad that i found this video after deciding to take break from social media (specially ig) just so i can focus on what i love and end this creative block that i have rn
bro i just feel we underestimate being lost and it’s part of the process and i think at a certain level it’s good u know, i’ll be more worried if i just stopped questioning myself bc that’ll mean that im on autopilot or some kind of shit like that haha
yeah it's funny, I try to avoid cliché in these pieces too, but stuff like that is absolutely true. So many people out there, huge artists, are always trying to grab the excitement of that first album they made or exhibition or whatever, so I absolutely agree with what you're saying.
I can’t stress enough how your video have helped recenter me. Thank you. Currently I’m in university for software technology which is cool but everyday I wake up it feels like I’m wasting time because deep down I know art and music is my calling and I know if I give it my all I can make a name for myself but then I have expectations from my family. It’s not easy to send me to the states to study, so I’m trying to make school work, so at least they don’t feel like they wasted their money in sending me abroad. Not many people in Nigeria get the chance to leave the country and to be fully covered for college. So on one hand I know what I want to do and what I’m fucking good at on the other I don’t want to fail my family. I want to be selfish but it’s not fair because here is my family unselfishly spending money on me to get security. Dilemma. Got a year and a half left so imma thug it out
i’m in kinda the same dilemma HAHA bro we are blessed we have to acknowledge that you can pull the 2 things out it’s just going to be harder, i believe in you, even kanye years later tells that college is another weapon bro kept it up!!
honestly baby i think its okay for you to explore both!! why do you have to limit yourself by choosing if you're capable of both?? imagine being an amazing artist who is well versed in software technology. the world is yours!! especially if you're already on track in one of them.. dont pivot, embrace it all
@@amauryvergaracallejas7362exactly!! education is never a bad thing and doesn't stop your creativity!! if anything education can help unlock more of your passion along w experience
I really appreciate you making this video. You did a great job presenting this in a way that flows really naturally while packing in SO many diamonds of insight. These artists are some of of my biggest inspirations, and I'm constantly seeking out their words of encouragement haha, now I've got it all in one place. I could reference this a dozen times. Seriously so helpful. Thank you.
Ah yes, that's exactly why I wanted to collect this piece together, as a kind of reference piece to watch when people wanted that energy to go work. So glad it resonated for you like this, and thanks for taking the time to comment - it really matters to hear it my side.
the way you express your thoughts is so refreshing. i can't get into those generic montage motivational videos, but this doesn't feel wishy-washy or superficial. thx for keeping it real ✌
damn man your videos are such a good source of inspiration and motivation. You're doing a fantastic job here, I know I won't feel lost again. Thank you for that.
Appreciate you dropping that feedback. I'm going to do more of this style - kinda based it on the facetime/zoom layout. Glad you got some value from the piece, thanks for taking the time to drop into the comments.
Nice video mate. Isaac Asimov got it right - 'Education isn't something you can finish.' Your bit at the end got me thinking there. Nice to see some Loyle Carner too - South London Legend. "Yo, I was sitting in a shitty pub in Clapham. Tryna find a way to tame the fire breathing dragon" (I Wonder Why). says it all. peace out thanks mate.
Love seeing an Isaac Asimov quote in here - thanks for dropping it. Dude wrote 108 books in his lifetime, he must've known a lot about creative process. Glad the Loyle Carner bit hit for you - nice to see UK Hip Hop fans in here.
revisiting this almost half a year later, thanks Creative Minds for these gems and reminders, very helpful for my mental and creative process as an artist - with gratitude, LaynoProd 🙏🏽👨🏽🎨
Thanks for the video I’m really in that beginners phase and this video just reminded me to have patience and that I need to create for myself not just to empress someone
This is a great video montage. I'm a music artist and for the last couple months I've been struggling in ways, in which the last few weeks have gotten worse and I've realized some things. This video has had great lessons, reminders, and inspiration. Thanks for making this.
can't tell you how much this helped me and how much I needed to hear these inspiring words at this exact time. It's hard picking yourself up as an artist sometimes and I've tried a lot, but the way you made this video, the clips you chose and structured it too really really helped me. I wanna say a big thank you from Germany :) keep doing what u do, gonna reference this video to all my creative peeps.
Hey man.. This is awesome. I thoroughly enjoy your channel. The videos that you create move beyond "content". I wish there was more stuff like this. Creative Minds is fast becoming a daily staple for when I need to take a break from creating music. Or when I'm not listening to music. Thank you for the inspiration and for really putting meaningful creations out in to the world for your fellow creatives.
It's unfortunate how many artists out there who's skills and potential are suppressed, put on the back burner while they just try to survive the struggle.
This video is fantastic. I am working on two albums, one of which is releasing this year and I feel is a lot more traditional in song structure and less organic. The other album I am working on is extremely organic, every track was produced and written out of freeflowing creativity, and they all mesh aesthetically because I had a concept and didn't force anything. Ima continue on that path because of this vid.
So dope to hear the work I'm doing resonate with your creative projects like this. Thanks for sharing your story on that, and know that it matters my side to hear it - cheers for taking the time.
Idk why im never consistent. There are days when i write the best bars,melodies, new flows and i surprise myself. But then the next day im back to square one its like i just started making music. Ive been tripping over this for like a year and idk how to fix it.
Hey, thanks so much rayray - this kind of support really matters to funding my time to work on these videos. It's massively appreciated, and glad you enjoyed this piece and got something from it.

This is a great video montage. I'm a music artist and for the last couple months I've been struggling in ways, in which the last few weeks have gotten worse and I've realized some things. This video has had great lessons, reminders, and inspiration. Thanks for making this.
this was AMAZING man. I appreciated this so much.
really needed this video, thanks Creative Minds appreciate everything you guys do for the community of upcoming artists 🙏🏽
Listen to the people who you trust rather than the people you don’t or don’t know Fr
your channel is a gold mine for creatives
Great vid. Love to ALL the creators and cheers to you, brotha. Y'all got me inspired ✨️
can't tell you how much this helped me and how much I needed to hear these inspiring words at this exact time. It's hard picking yourself up as an artist sometimes and I've tried a lot, but the way you made this video, the clips you chose and structured it too really really helped me. I wanna say a big thank you from Germany :) keep doing what u do, gonna reference this video to all my creative peeps.
Love the way you broke down each artist take on how to get to the other side of art
This video made me cry at 6 AM. I needed this. Thank you. 🙏🏾

Cheers legend, i appreciate the collection of points and deeper commentary
This is such a great video! Thank you for creating it
Hey man.. This is awesome. I thoroughly enjoy your channel. The videos that you create move beyond "content". I wish there was more stuff like this. Creative Minds is fast becoming a daily staple for when I need to take a break from creating music. Or when I'm not listening to music. Thank you for the inspiration and for really putting meaningful creations out in to the world for your fellow creatives.
Great job on this video I love how you put it together
Glad it resonated with you, thanks for taking the time to comment and support, its appreciated.

Great channel friend. A genuinely helpful inspiring source for artists of any age. Thank you.

Boil down all the tips to: always be learning, keep a learners mindset.
This channel is amazing. Keep going.
It's unfortunate how many artists out there who's skills and potential are suppressed, put on the back burner while they just try to survive the struggle.
Thanks a lot for this video! It really really helped me
Thank you so much for your videos u‘re creating such an safespace with your great work
This video is fantastic. I am working on two albums, one of which is releasing this year and I feel is a lot more traditional in song structure and less organic. The other album I am working on is extremely organic, every track was produced and written out of freeflowing creativity, and they all mesh aesthetically because I had a concept and didn't force anything. Ima continue on that path because of this vid.
So dope to hear the work I'm doing resonate with your creative projects like this. Thanks for sharing your story on that, and know that it matters my side to hear it - cheers for taking the time.
Phenomenal video once again, bless you and your work

Idk why im never consistent. There are days when i write the best bars,melodies, new flows and i surprise myself. But then the next day im back to square one its like i just started making music. Ive been tripping over this for like a year and idk how to fix it.
