Right.

get a serious, serious connection to your fans and be your fans' family.

Like, that is the number one thing in my career that I will always keep number one in the priority list.

And like, it's all that's, that's all that started.

And because it was me, I was like, saw myself in these kids and wanted to do everything that I, when I was 12, used to think like,

oh my God, why can't my favorite artist do this?

And why can't they make it easier for us to see this?

And so I've really strived to be that for them and be reachable and feel like they feel like we are...

And like they don't feel separated from me and like I don't want to be known by them or know them, you know, like I want them to feel like we are friends and that if I'm out in the world, you know, and like be respectful, of course.

But but but like when I'm out in the world and I make eye contact with someone.

Like this has happened before and they just like smile at me and I smile at them and they run up to me and we hug.

Like that has happened before because it's just, the connection is just there.

We don't have to say anything.

We just like, and you don't have to be afraid of me, you know?

Right.

Such a great quality.

Yes, it's it can be a lot.

I mean, also because it's like the trajectory of things has gotten so much bigger over the years that at this point, it's not only fans in the crowd.

Sometimes like it's sometimes it's a little bit like it can be a little bit dangerous.

But the thing is, like, I don't want to be out of reach, like physically and, you know, mentally.
