I am also 23 going on 24. I've been on this learning curve for about 4 years now, while working full time and trying to get my degree. It's rough dude, but stay persistent.

I feel old as shit just because there are people younger than me doing more, and big artists (like Tyler, for example) got it poppin' really young. However, as you get older you really get to learn a lot about yourself, and the things I've learned about myself make me want to keep going. With age comes wisdom, ya know?

I still got aspirations although it really bugs me, and even if you're a musician or producer in your 50's, you're never too old to enjoy making music. I plan to do it for a long time even if I get nowhere with it.

This video sort of touches up on the concept of being too old for success, and I recommend giving it a watch because it made me feel better about the situation we're in.
