Since everyone and their mother is an artist these days, it makes derivative work even more meaningless. It all just takes up retail space like boxes of cereal on a grocery store shelf. Yet, in shameless pursuit of digital clout, artists are trying their hardest to be derivative.

Artist as hero is not a helpful narrative in this era. It makes far too many new artists feel like their choice to pursue creative work is in itself worthy of acknowledgment, or even praise. It inspires artistic mimicry, self aggrandizement, and work that is painfully generic

It’s been a year since God Made Dirt dropped. My first full length album, produced entirely by @justdanonly Here’s a lil mini short we made about it.. Directed/edited by myself and @justdanonly Shot by @scrillarybanks youtu.be/dxdOQ5errx0?feature…

The Universe. Laughing at your plans, applauding your suffering.. Giving you every single thing you need.

General strike soon come

We’d love for you to come thru. Ticket link in bio 🎟️🤘🏽

Regardless of the political dynamic, anytime humans choose to gather by the masses to protest or raise awareness (without sanction from the state), out come the riot police and rubber bullets. When push comes to shove, you are property, to be quelled and controlled as needed.

The Olympics are basically the Hunger Games without the murder. Absurd, extravagant pageantry and meaningless nationalist competition while the humans of this planet live in a violent dystopia.

May 14, myself and @justdanonly bringing you God Made Dirt the live experience. Alongside @sydanieee Sounds by @jayemkayem Ticket link in bio. They’re 20 dollars, the price of a pineapple at Loblaws.

When you’re speaking about something related to Africa, and you know what country you’re talking about, please name the country. Stop just saying “Africa”

Giving your young child a smartphone is worse than handing them a pack of cigarettes

Ppl who work out without headphones in a silent gym are serial killers

We’re making young people allergic to pain. They think discomfort is an injustice.

I make art cuz I’m chasing a feeling. When I’m able to capture that feeling, other ppl tend to feel it too. It’s really that simple

The disintegration of the talent economy is part of this era. Human talent will mean less and less, and technology will fill the void. Whatever unique ability you have can be cloned by algorithms. Maybe AI generated creations are boring and robotic now, but soon they won’t be.

I don’t think living actual life will make sense to future generations. They are going to hand pick every single aspect of their individual metaverses, while their real bodies lay bed ridden in some condo the size of a closet.

“Hate” is such an overly weaponized, meaningless word. “Stop hate”? Empty, utopian rhetoric

Who is making the Speakers Corner doc?? It’s a monumentally important piece of Toronto history that may be forgotten.

“You still doing your music?”, a question that equates my life purpose to some hobby I picked up on HGTV.
