Imagine you give yourself until 25, 30 to become successful. You don’t meet that and give up. Then you spend the next 65 years sulking (we are living a lot longer).
Don’t be that person. Stop putting a due date on your success

Artist royalties are crazy. Reading a 2017 article about Trinidad James getting 8% royalties from Uptown Funk (due to it interpolating lyrics from All Gold Everything) that, by the time of that article’s writing, made him $150,000.

I don’t think a bachelors or masters degree in journalism and a discovery of hip-hop three years ago dictates someone overseeing a person who’s been in hip-hop since they were born when it comes to hip-hop focused publications
