In a super competitive industry why keep writing & releasing music?
Some days, making music feels like shouting into an already crowded room.
In a super competitive industry, it’s easy to ask yourself, why bother?
But here’s why I keep writing and releasing music anyway. Music was never just about winning a race, It was about saying something honest when I didn’t have the words any other way.
Every song I write captures a version of me that won’t exist again. Even if only a handful of people hear it, that moment mattered.
Releasing music is also how you grow. Not just technically, but emotionally. Each track teaches you something about your voice, your instincts, your courage.
Waiting until everything is “perfect” often means never sharing anything at all. Progress lives in releasing, learning, and doing it again.
And here’s the part we forget: you don’t need everyone. You need your people. One listener who connects deeply is worth more than a thousand passive streams. Music has a strange way of finding who it’s meant for, often long after you let it go.
Most importantly, I keep going because stopping would mean silencing a part of myself. Even when the industry feels loud and overwhelming, creating is grounding. It reminds me who I am when the noise fades.
So I write. I release. I repeat. JFK put it perfectly.
“We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”
— John F. Kennedy, Rice University, 1962
