Tayo and I have lots and lots of common interests when it comes to music. I love the way he talks about art and genre and performer/audience interaction and everything else. We found ourselves very in sync very quickly.

Music is my practical background, so this conversation felt like coming home in a lot of ways. Speaking to someone who not only had the mutual understanding of musicianship, but also really felt the way I do about art as a form of communication, rather than just subjective vibe based experimentalism.

Easy breezy beautiful camaraderie. Cover girl.

I appreciated yall’s conversation about the purpose of rap and also the conversation about craftsman vs artists. As a long time rap fan I’ve always appreciated but never quite understood ‘bling’ rap - much food for thought and some old albums (both pop, punk pop, and rap) to re-listen to in a new context.

I laughed out loud when CJ asked Tayo what he thought Quit was about. That was the most “teacher calls on you when your hand wasn’t raised and you weren’t paying attention” feeling; an artist just asks you, “hey, that song I wrote, what do YOU think it’s about?” To your face. While recording. Terrifying to experience, hilarious to watch. I loved this convo so much; watching the love of music and artistry bounce between Tayo and CJ was just such a joy.

COLORMIND.

wow that black guy was kinda funny

this was such a great convo! i had an insufferable phase w music in high school too where i only listened to hotep shit like black star, slum village etc etc. then i took a hard u-turn and got obsessed w one direction lmao. i’ve been thinking a lot about balancing contextualizing art to fit your own life, with experiencing it the way that is most true to the artist’s intention. after being in fandom spaces too much i focused on leaning more towards the former, but now i realize how that too can have its downsides. like i first trivialized the whole mitski sad girl thing bc i knew those jokes were just a product of ppl contextualizing her music to their own life and failed to see the harm in them cracking dumb jokes abt it. on the other hand being overly concerned with what the artist is communicating gives me war flashbacks to fandom discourse abt who’s fucking who what when lol

I really appreciate that distinction between artists who love music and the technical elements and the artists who are here to communicate something and passionate about that relationship. I have been writing songs on and off since I was five years old but I've struggled with why because I'm not technically skilled in any instrument or at singing and I only learned basic music theory from a friend in college because I begged him to help me improve my songs. I don't think I've written anything that's even remotely good, but I still have that impulse to write a song, to put a feeling into words and melodies. It's my greatest dream to partner up with someone who is technically proficient and actually put together a song that I could share with a hypothetical audience. Not to launch a career or anything. Just to be heard, ya know?
