i'm so excited to finally be uploading in 4K (i'm only 5 years late! lol). More importantly, i'm super excited about finally dropping some new original music (link in description) . stream it and let me know your thoughts in the comments. what art have you been overthinking?
The art of music. As far as music, I grew up in a Christian household so we would sing a lot so I started singing at 6 years old. I’ve always had a good voice but the fear of judgement or what people think really always made me overthink things which was also part of the reason why I was never in choir in middle school and high school and it’s easy for people to say “You can’t care about what people think about you” but for some people like myself, it’s easier said than done.
The overthinking part is where everyone says you have to have one thing on your page, but my mind creates sooo much variety. Why do I have to edit...ME? 🤦🏽♀️🙇🏾♀️ I'm LYRICALLY GIFTED! I can literally make a song about anything and I follow you and other poets and lyricist as motivation but get anxiety with posting mine. I had a song pop into my head from a Swoope beat, a whole year ago and still trying to get the courage to put it out 🥴😩
@Shamira Taylor this comment helps. I'll try and post it Monday and then come back here and let you know if I punked out again for the 60th Monday in a row 🥴 by overthinking of my social esthetics and limits 😏
..."creates for the sake of creating... because that's what the creative self does" Simple, but I needed to hear this. Thank you for your liberating content
I think this also helps explain why art can be so cathartic. When the rational side takes over, we often get weighed down with the future and decisions we need to make to get us to where we want to be. But when we let the creative side have a chance, we start focusing on the now and how we can simply do the best with what we a currently working on.
This comes in a time where I really needed a video like this. As a fellow musician I've had a lot of trouble coming up with new stuff, mostly because of overthinking, the good old "will people like this" instead of "do I like this". And this just gave me the little spark I needed to get back into creating. Thank you for this. Keep up the great vibes man, I hope you achieve all the success in the world.
YES to all that was said here!!! Almost a year ago I started making weekly uploads to UA-cam for the sake of working on a creative craft with consistency, and it has been transformative for my mind! Even if the eye of the intergoogles doesn’t see it yet, it feels therapeutic!
Bro, no joke, I really needed this message! I've recently started to face my irrational fears and started uploading some covers on tiktok.. It's really hard for me to finally "put myself out there" (even though people told me they liked my voice) because I still have trouble trusting myself, but this video was actually what I needed to just keep exploring this side of mine! Thank you so much, for real.
Watched this three times! And it does so much sense. For us artists and creators sometimes is really hard to be confident about what we do. Keep going, Solomon! 🇧🇷
I feel you man. Actually, this was exaclty what I needed right now. Awesome content, keep up the good work and continue putting yourself out there. You're wonderful!
I've been in a rut for the past few days. I needed this. Overthinking can definitely mute our creative voices and this inspired me to stop thinking so hard about whether other people are going to love my content and to create for myself-- the right audience will be drawn to my work -- I often battle with this and this was the perfect reminder today, thanks Jo
i realy felt what you said. i wrote a lot of songs and posted, and then deleted all 'couse i was insecure days later.i need let me beeing myself, that's the real challenge these days, 'cause everybody around you its so talented and different...
Right on tim... Thank you for sharing this.... I have been soooo caight up in a rut that i forgot what it all means... I vow to make 2022 my most creative year yet....To enjoyment ♥️🕯️💗
hey thanks for this video ❤️ really good to know that other people struggle with the same as me and lately i’m proud to say that im encouraging myself to make art that i find beautiful regardless of what other people think. stay true to urself :)
I definitely gelt this as a content creator. Often theres this little doubt in the back the grows and hinders you from making the content you already are great at. Overthinking truly is the death of joy
Aoh..okay you talking to me me... #1 why are you yelling? I hear you 🥺 #2 your music style is definitely a vibe I can enjoy hearing during my Pilates class...any time really #3 facts facts and more facts (great analogy)
I needed this, thank you! I've been overthinking about my business all year, which has stopped me from creating all together. It's time to get back to work.
Wowwwwwww…this came to me at the right time. Cutting out all the distractions and going to focus on art, music, poetry. Only if I can find a piano instructor. Good soup bro! 😆
I started following you through a friend that sent to me your Partynextdoor x Rihanna cover, man i just loved it. You're so talented, God bless you man. Sorry for my english, anyway im from Angola. And if you see this Please cover ( Redemption song - Bob Marley ) One !!!
Creative self: "This room makes me feel a sense of comfort with the plants, textures, and colors.", "Hmm, what's that paint color?", "I love how the plant pot is painted the same color as the wall, it just disappears, making the green of the plant look so vibrant" Rationale self: "Focus on the message ma'am!" 😂
So what you're saying is, more sick mashup music? Cos we need more of that! 😅🙌🏾 Also appreciating that 4k! I think you have mentioned it before but are you using a specific bloom filter?

I'm sorry this has nothing to do with the video, but can you make a tutorial on just the two of us, plsss :)))
More of these, we believe in YoU!!!
..."creates for the sake of creating... because that's what the creative self does"
Simple, but I needed to hear this. Thank you for your liberating content
The message of "just create, just let it flow, some will love it, some won't and that's okay" hits deeeep
Wow. This completely changed my perspective on things. I needed this video more than anything thank you so much for this!
