Since the beginning of my career people have been asking me “what’s your hair care routine?” Well today I wanna thank my younger self for having the discipline and foresight to work in silence for years with a chemist developing his own formula and hair care line. PALERMO. 2024. Link in bio to sign up so you get early access to the drop and other info 👀
We shot this in Palermo 🇮🇹 I’m just so damn proud of myself and grateful to my team for helping me bring this idea to life. This is one of the coolest things I’ve ever done 😂😂

SANTIAGO | 8/18
Artwork description :
This album represents my mental, spiritual, physical and emotional journey to my treasure (I talk more about what my treasure is on the album but it’s symbolized by the pyramid). The journey at times wasn’t and isn’t pretty. I’ve put myself through the ringer and beat myself up quite a bit along the way. The front cover depicts externally what that sort of psychological warfare looks like.
The back cover depicts the internal dynamics at play. Myself, my inner child and my shadow. It’s a battle vs myself at all times and I had to do a lot of self excavation to make this album. The vinyls and digital album are up for preorder now. The artwork was made by the GENIUS @poorteffy
I’m really excited. I’m really nervous. SANTIAGO is my journey to self love & self mastery while touching on the obstacles that have provided resistance along the way…feelings of emptiness, inadequacy, imposter syndrome, doubt, anger, shame (to name a few) and ultimately issues from my childhood that have shown up in my adult life. It’s my attempt to understand, navigate and heal. It’s the most vulnerable music I’ve ever made and I had to do a lot of excavating to make it. I hope that by listening to me face my own emotions, you all gain the courage to face your own. It was a confronting experience and I hope it resonates with people who are trying to navigate the obstacles on their own journey because as Paulo Coelho said, “one man’s journey is every man’s journey.”

Closed out the last show of the year in Saudi 🇸🇦 fun fact, Goodbye was my first song to hit 100,000 views/plays and it blew up in Saudi first which really got the ball of momentum rolling for me. That’s why I shouted yall out in so many of the OG SoundCloud songs (straight from Saudi, pull the trigger, too many, etc) . Will always love yall and I can’t wait to come back

lemme just pat myself on the back real quick.this video cost me 128k but having a vision be brought to life that lives forever is always priceless to me. music videos in todays climate have lost their “value” if you look at them strictly from a “is this gonna make me my $ back” . In fairness, that’s a valid concern especially when music pays the bills. I’m fortunate enough to be in a position tho where I can just make art for the sake of making art. Hope everyone is enjoying the video and song. Love yall

Just glad this exists. Artistic fulfillment is the most important ROI. Told Benji “yo I wanna get spartan kicked and fall inside a hourglass while singing How Long. How do we do that?” 😂😂 and he made it happen! We shot this less than a week ago lol insane turnaround time.
