Reflection this year came with some hard truths….growing quickly inside a passion, even after 15 years, comes with things I wasn’t prepared for: losing so. many. friends, a smaller circle, the darkness of certain people around you, missing time at home & the deep work between performances + a corporate job.
I’ve also met passionate people around the world who inspire me a ton… lost a few tragically, a reminder of how short life is & been shown over again that not everyone’s in your corner (that one hurt). I love hard, so it hits hard.
honestly, this is just growing up in our 30s.
And life is still so beautiful. We get to travel nearly every corner of the world (except India now lmao), play great music, and make people dance. It’s a blessing to make people happy, man.
It could all end tomorrow & I’d still be grateful. I’ve lived out the dreams I had at 13 when I just wanted to be a cool rapper (the champ is here x3). That’s why I don’t take myself too seriously.
An old boss said: “you’re lucky - you get to see people on their happiest days and be a reason for that joy.” I think about that quote a lot.
People ask me for DJ advice & my answer’s always the same:
– Have fun, and don’t be afraid to show it.
– Work hard, because everyone’s gunning for your spot.
– Play what you love, and your tribe will find you.
& if you keep doing that, you’ll be ready when the right opportunities come. Ever heard that Luck is when preparation meets opportunity? I’d tattoo that if I could.
We’re still in growth mode - isn’t that crazy? Imagine where this ship will be next year + got a DJ podcast coming soon, can’t wait to share stories 😭😂
If we haven’t talked in a bit, call me this weekend.
And if I’ve been a bad friend, pls forgive me.
I’ve just been trying to make this dream become real.
Dallas, Chicago, London, NYC - we will have an AMAZING 2025 tour.
Miami, Charlotte, San Francisco, Toronto - see you in 2026 🚀
