this is probably the best advice you could ever get as a musician. don't get feedback, don't get critique - about your technique sure, but not about your art, keep your art far, far away from that. other people's perceptions of your work will poison you. create for yourself and yourself alone, and protect that jealously from being tainted by outside influences.
@@persona7-7-7 for "serious work", outside perceptions don't exist as far as you're concerned, they're irrelevant - and your mindset and approach to that art is something that's internal, vulnerable, and fragile, sometimes in the deepest way. that mindset and approach is a little world you live in when you create, for you and you alone; as soon as you start hearing opinions and perceptions, those stick to you and bend your creative process; the perceptions of others change how you perceive your own work. for some types of work this is fine, but not for the serious stuff. you have to be judicious about how you share it and how it interacts with the world out there. by the same token you should be judicious about how you consume art, media, and information, because "you are what you eat" creatively, and what you consume shapes the mental network of associations that guides your intuition, motivation, and creative process.
@@persona7-7-7 this is certainly true. I’m being a hardliner. Irl you can’t just do what I described if you want a career. But the overall idea of being judicious of what you put out there and how you engage with criticism still persists. If you watch or read interviews with musicians, many have dealt with this issue of feeling hurt by the reception of their work, or having their creative direction derailed. It’s just something to keep in mind, and you only need to take it super seriously if you’re doing the “serious” stuff. Most work isn’t the “serious” stuff.
He’s basically saying he’s not gonna have all the managers and owners tell him what music to make that fits the genre popular at the time. He’s gonna make what he feels in his heart not just writing cheesy songs that 12 year olds would love (Taylor swift). and that’s why every song he drops Is a fuckin banger
@@bruhcomeon. a diss is an insult. If something is true it ain’t really an insult is it lol. If you’re fat and I call you fat is that really an insult….
You can tell he wasn’t even saying that to diss Drake, he was just giving his honest take on it. Especially after the crowd laughs he makes a face like, whoops
Yung Lean will never be as big as Drake specifically for this reason. Continue making music that only you like, and you will never succeed. If you want to blow up, learn how to take criticism and make music that sounds good to everyone else.
i disagree. drakes fans been wanting him to evolve and explore new topics but hed rather talk about being with women 20 years younger than him and opps and basically the same things hes always talking about to feel better about himself and the fact that hes like 40

Sometimes criticisms can improve things yk
Bro was in a pic with drake and ye I'm sure they over it
he’s got a point, you can’t please everyone with your music so if you focus on others opinions you’ll potentially even please less people
Lean is actually a very smart man if you can see past the crazy shit he may say sometimes
He is extremely smart his knowledge of music is insane and that’s coming from a hip hop head
What crazy shit?
@@whatburnsneverreturns the schizo/schizoid shit he says in interviews
@@c4yn3any examples?
@@metempsychoza111 literally any interview where he even remotely talks about mental health
The best thing about this is that you can implement this kind of mindset in your own life, not just in music. Just be yourself.
terrible advice, always mask your real self and create different personalities for every person you meet, that way, they'll never hurt the real you.
bro got the whole squad laughing
He's not american
When you enjoy doing music and really good at it, it’s beyond what people like… it’s about you making good music
That's an old stuff, like almost happened 2 years ago
Still true though
Buckshot was in person to see this
fr??
@@juugin yeah, in the full interview you can see him and Oscar in the crowd, they also took photos with him
thats sick@@hdrunx4840
Drake makes music to appeal to the widest audience possible, Lean makes underground bangers for himself and those who happen to like what he’s making
He has a couple of underground bangers tbh not a whole discography of underground bangers
You havent even heard of em they so underground EZRA @@ezra1557
Yes yes of course
Ofc.
I respect artist who care about their art more then the ones just trying to go mainstream, music isn’t all about the money ppl forget that
Respect to young lean
Damn even now, looking at all the beef Drake has 😂
Every musical decision you make with others in mind basically chips away at who you really are as an artist
Not a diss, it's just facts.
He’s basically saying he’s not gonna have all the managers and owners tell him what music to make that fits the genre popular at the time. He’s gonna make what he feels in his heart not just writing cheesy songs that 12 year olds would love (Taylor swift). and that’s why every song he drops Is a fuckin banger
you agree with Lean?
Drake been stealing flows for decades its nothing new
safe
Yea damn sure as an aspiring musician.
Well yeah, it’s obvious lol
Yes
Yall reaching just cuz the current beef with Kdot and Drake. This was before the beef started and it wasn’t a diss.

Drake relates, I think he was saying he's the exception, no diss.
That's cause Drake is at the point where he can drop anything and it'll go up
how tf did bro make drake, travis, i think that kanye, and baby keem look like they were just in the background chillin
So why does every beat sound basically the same with different noises?
Lmao he speaking factsssss
He's not american
ong no kizzy
But he took a pic with him
I'd rather Leandoer be happy than me
bro my man instantly regretted it look at that boy’s face 💀💀💀
. etc- lowkey wish it was a diss cause as th crowd showd. simpl name drop was too accurate etc^
Much heavier disses than this have passed, over the last three years so many disses jave just gone sideways
it was not a diss but it was so honest and sudden than even him did not realise that Drake suck
Basically saying Drake sold his soul for the industry, colonizing new genres and artists just to stay relevant
the heart shaved into his hair is the gayest thing
i disagree. drakes fans been wanting him to evolve and explore new topics but hed rather talk about being with women 20 years younger than him and opps and basically the same things hes always talking about to feel better about himself and the fact that hes like 40

why he look like the mf from Blues Clues?😂😂
one of the best things ever created
Spoiler alert his music does suck 😬
this is old, and using it to create drama is soooo idiotic
Exactly.
I love it when he diss drake
It wasn't a red flag it was a fun fact. 😅
You are an npc if you listen to drake
Lean the goat
Yes he is
Bro legit was ahead of his time😂
Man was telling only facts🔥🙏💯
Not a diss. Just a fact.
Not a diss
Your music doesn't suck
Everyone doesn't make music for themselves
Unless they're like drake
Yung lean is more kind than Drake he wouldn't even call him names
Lean has a good point. Drake is good at guessing tho
Not a Drake fan but idk how that’s a valid diss. Drake has the most Billboard #1 singles in my modern era
That’s not a diss if anything a compliment
Why this look like it got pulled from an old desk somewhere. 😂 Some old ass 80s interview vibes. Lmao.
LUCKI once said the same thing that you make music to impress yourself not others
That part about just guessing at that point is spot on. I always end up doing that
Doesn’t seem like a diss at all.
As if I needed more reasons to love Yung Lean
and when you’re guessing you’re moving but with no direction.
I heard him off of a Huncho Jack record. That was my only exposure to him but thought it was cool to see him get recognition on TikTok
nice.
He music sucks lol
LOL i mean not really a diss if he’s right. Drake writes music for the masses, I’d say he probably agrees with that.
And he was right!
When you do it for yourself it feels good also🤜💯❤️🌌😶🌫️😌
He isnt lying bro. Nice way of saying drake is fucking garbage
Aka Uzi
Don’t think it was a diss . Drake one of the few that guesses correctly
Drake is pop..does he put out good music absolutely but he not a true artist
When You start liking carti, You should go one step deeper and listen to draingang
Yung lean is trash tho…
He is better than drake atleast
@@Mindonicon Stop capping 😂
@@jbke i actually geniunely think he is
Was that a laugh track 😂
Yea I went through this writing faze now I’ve developed hella into my own perspective and like for and about music.
Good mindset, but that’s prolly why you only have 3m monthly listeners.
he is okay with that
He has more then drayk
Yes because spotify monthly listener count is truly the end all be all when it comes to success as an artist!
Drake makes music for everyone that wasn't a fisss just a funny joke lol
So true though. You make music for yourself.
