To be honest, music is everything to me. It’s my reason for living and the foundation of the dreams I intend to achieve. In truth, music was the only thing that pulled me back from the edge after facing severe depression and self-harm...

Honestly, when I’m dealing with some really stubborn constipation, she’s my absolute go-to laxative.

Music means everything to me. First and foremost—it’s a craft. Your average, run-of-the-mill musician just has a casual, surface-level relationship with the sound; they're just going through the motions. But a true master? An artist? They woo the music until it starts bleeding out everywhere—a liquid slurry of melodies and tones. As it travels through the air, that fluid thickens into this gelatinous mass that pierces the eardrums and merges directly with the brain, literally licking the cortex. Beyond that, I truly believe people perceive music at entirely different levels, which is why we see such endless debates over musical taste. Honestly, the easiest fix would be to sort "listeners" into distinct castes. You’d earn your way into the higher tiers by listening to thousands of new tracks and hundreds of albums—shedding old genres along the way to make room for new perspectives, complexity, melody, and pure sophistication.

It’s actually pretty nice when I’m having a drink and you come along to lift my mood... seriously.

Add some Dulcolax to the mix—then you’ve got a total Bach fugue in D minor on your hands!🙂 😂 🙂

Look, anyone can talk their own game about what music means to them, but let’s be real—the whole reason music exists carries this massive weight for humanity. Honestly, I don't think many people out there could actually survive without it—if you forced someone to live a life totally stripped of sound, they'd just be... incomplete. Like, a part of them would always be missing. For me personally, music is this ultimate sense of freedom, though I don't really look at it as some flashy spectacle or just background noise for a party. In my world, the stuff I listen to is basically the meaning of life, just translated into sound waves.
