Because there is something beautiful about a young artist that has their whole life to make their first album.

There's a level of like, there's a little bit naive because of that.

They're not overthinking shit.

You know, I'm part of this thing.

And like, when I make records that sound like this, it feels like me and it makes me feel some type of way.

When I hear it, that should be the visual.

And

This artist is really cool.

Maybe they'll do my cover art.

We're just making music at the end.

Yeah, exactly.

Exactly.

And I'm trying to like, I think we're both trying to like reconnect with that as much as possible.

I mean, that's the innovator's dilemma too.

Once you've reached this point and you're like, which way do I go?

Do I keep trying to like ride the wave of this thing that's kind of moved past me, but I can hang on to it?

Or do you just be steadfast in the thing that is inherently you?

And there's not really a right answer.

There's a bunch of success.

why what i was saying the other day like i don't know if we would have invested in poppy again because we just don't we do stay away from cpg that was like a 30x but again completely like you'll there is again some level of naivety that you're just like you gotta have venture favors optimism and i hope we would have identified that poppy had two incredible founders but like maybe not maybe they're just like another soda
