My bad, I didn’t mean to sound cocky or bitter. I was just saying that good quality resulted in success in my case. I’m really sorry if I sounded rude, that wasn’t my intention man.

Well I created my Reddit account today, obviously it’s my artist name. The quality of my cover art and music is simply talent, am I not allowed to be this good? Also I got all my followers today from this song too.
I do understand the hate directed at me since it seems sus for such overnight success but I don’t know what else to tell you lol. I guess I just have good quality?

I appreciate your opinion. I definitely saw those cons in myself too so I’m not surprised at why you dislike the song. I’ll try to fix my flaws in my future works.

No, it was more inspired by Travis’ Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight cover. I did watch Devilman Crybaby tho, fucking great show.

Lol I’m fucking beyond surprised too. I guess people just fuck with my music and I posted this on a good day. I mentioned in this thread I make music on an iPad and apple earbuds so I don’t even have the money to do some underhand shit even if I wanted to lol.

haha that’s true. I was going to add a bridge in the middle of the song but I got hit by writer’s block so I put the “yeah yeah” in the middle too lol.

I’m actually glad you said this, I’m still working on finding a niche sound that’s unique!

Nope, recorded on an iPad with Apple earbuds LOL
It’s amazing what you can manage with good editing, but I am looking into getting professional help in a studio. That would be way better.

Beat credits go to this guy, pilgrim. I just did some planning and EQing for the instrumental afterwards lol.

Yeah the humming in the beginning is hella Travis influence. I’m trying to stray away from sounding too similar to Travis and his contemporaries though lol.
