    I completely agree about not performing drunk or high. As a performing artist, I tend to avoid both as well. There's just something effective about being sober and on stage. It's much easier to handle the waves of energy, at least for me.

  • @Faaade_
    @Faaade_ 7 років тому +35

    I dont think its a problem that he expects professionalism. I have friends that are musicians and its wild how bad they get treated. People dont take them seriously but they expect a pristine performance.

      orangeflip, he's not saying he was doing shows. He was uploading shit and there were very few of us listening to his shit and it was flopping then his shit started to pop

    I can't get a good read on this guy. I like some of his songs. And sometimes he seems cool, but he seems a little full of himself sometimes.
