now that I got some downtime I can finally share the album artwork with you guys. at the beginning of this process I felt a little insecure about creative directing all this. the idea of the cover and the monster came to me on a drive from atlanta to nashville. I was listening to an early version of the album and i had this Muhammad Ali picture as a reference for the playlist. I hit @allleuu and told her my idea and how we could flip it. Once she created the monster, it was easier to see what was ahead. I can’t express how grateful I am to my friends who helped me bring this world to life. Thank you. Its now hitting me that my baby is out, but that’s the reason why we create. to share with the people, and with that means letting go. Don’t worry, we’re not done with the roll out yet. I got some surprises. It’s DON’T GROW UP TOO SOON ALL 2024!!

Going to start posting more stuff like this because I think it can be helpful and maybe tell some stories on how certain songs were made 🤷🏻‍♂️ either way back to this older clip I did a few years ago. Take care of your people.

I’m super grateful for everyone who’s been following me on this journey plus the new ones that joined. We doubled our numbers from last year and the music is doing what it’s supposed to be doing. Connecting. We in it for the long haul. For now, ima see where this next album takes me. The name, concept and story are ready. Now it’s time to create ❤️

Y’all thought the rollout was over? Thank you @allleuu @slinkjohnson @mrmachingdl @toddbeee for helping me bring these ideas to life. As I was coming up with concepts for merch I got the idea of this cereal box. Then I remembered as a kid how there was always a cocoa puffs or Cap’n Crunch commercial during our shows. I wanted that saturday morning cartoons & cereal feel , that nostalgia. Get your cereal today at the “Don’t Grow Up Too Soon” store ❤️ Link in bio
