We’ll liscense your song, give you 60%, we’ll advance you some dough so you got money to spend. Put all it towards promotion, when she blows up big; high five our fat asses with our 40%. Payola for thee, payola for playlists, blue check marks and follows and streams. There are folks in the business no older than me that ain’t never done nothing but email and drink. And the coke in the kitchen it ain’t Coca Cola. And they’ll swear, and declare *sniff* Payola. Payola! Payola for thee, brought to you by nepotism and veiled in authority. Payola for thee, it’s the wizard of oz and the curtains the do re mi-mi-mi *epic guitar strumming* I ain’t never been borrowed but I’ve had the flu, it was hard to monetize but I made it through. And when the ‘Rona came, and the labels went home: We went back to Starbucks, they took PPP loans. Payola for thee, payola for playlist, blue check-marks and follows and streams. Payola for thee, it’s the wizard of oz and the curtains the do-re-mi-mi-mi From the cowboy cosplay in music city to the LA cyborgs n New York pretty, Austin cities got no limits.

I think its okay to feel outdone by outwardly talented people. Sometimes our own progress can appear as less than it actually is when compared to someone who's further ahead than we are. Thankfully, life isn't a race. I think its a lot better to focus on being impressed like you mentioned. Using that as motivation to emulate not the work of others, but their abilities. Both feelings of Envy and Inspiration can lead you to self improvement, but the former is so much more unhealthy of a way to do it. The comparing of ourselves to others is already a very dangerous thing by nature. I went over a couple of your videos (and while my opinion is neither that of an expert, nor can it speak for a general audience) I personally liked your music. Specifically, I enjoyed Under from Turnover. It felt very full in a way that isn't noisy, which is rare. The whole video is very enjoyable for that matter. Take what you are now, hold it close and develop it. It is known that the most important times in the life of a flower are those complex and difficult moments that it takes to grow. And when the time is right, it is finally strong enough to bear its own bloom. (Sorry for my rant. I hope it did some good however small)

@@glitchbeard4046Your history is a bit off. Folk and country both descend from old time, but they're distinct. Modern folk music comes from the folk revival movement. Many artists were heavily influenced by some of the oldest recorded American music, e.g. Lead Belly. Old time kinda morphed into country as that mountain sound traveled westward through the south and as guitars overtook banjo as the most popular instrument in America. Hell the term folk music used to just refer to what music poor folks liked to play, didn't even mean anything specific until the folk revival movement took off. The old time/country distinction is pretty fuzzy when it comes to old old country though.

I've been playing guitar for about 43 years and I have turned many a head.-people suddenly liking me because they realize I have this one skill all that....That being said, this young man beats my ass seriously at guitar-I could play another 30 years and not have the rhythmic, "never missing a note"technique this dude has that so many do NOT have and this goddamn kid kills it 😮

His voice is somewhere between Bob Dylan and Tom Waits, very unique and awesome. Great lyrics too.

Kick ass lyrics dude. You deserve success far more than the overproduced low skill set sell outs that are big right now

KZitem algorithm becomes unhinged every once in a while, it promoted Walmart song to me and I was hooked. Keep up the good genuine art.
