“I’m just trying to get into the head of ignorance,” he says of the inspiration behind the project. “And I think it’s why I really enjoyed writing it—it reminds me of myself when I was younger, a cross between myself at 17 or 18 and my younger siblings.” "On My Life" and the reggae-influenced track "Take Care Of Me" with Tiggs Da Author.
"My own stuff is always going to sound mad musical,” he furthered. “That’s my ear. But if I make it like that, it might not reach who needs to hear it. This isn’t one that needs to hit high in the charts, but more than anything, it’s important to me how this project works.”
