Rolling solo is the only way I've been able to make progress. Having others attached at the hip causes a lot of unneeded drama, and creates opportunities for unforced errors.

For maintenance, I much rather do away with the team handicap for most things. I know how I want it done, and where I need to put my attention when learning. I don't have to conduct meetings, and fluff someones ego. It's easy to live the way you please when there are no other bodies in the equation.

I scrapped a song early in the process of writing Vacant Care. When I say early, I'm talking the stage where I recorded example flows and random bars to gauge my own interest in making an album around a certain subject. 

I didn't write much down in this phase. It was all about the feel and atmosphere around these ideas.

This was going to be what turned out to be a sort of breadcrumb narrative hidden in a few tracks.

Having expectations will always breed contempt. No one wants to live up, and they never feel the need to abide by anything.

idc is the anthem for my life, as I've found solace in simple allowing. I allow everything around me to be whatever it is that makes them feel good. If you wish to be stationary, I'll let you have that. If you wanna advance, go for it.
