The Guitar Center employee tells us, make money to make music.
Don't make music to make money.
Mm-hmm.
And it's so true.
It's like, yo, LaRussell, any artist, if you are on your shit and you own the means of your production, you got the studio already, da-da-da-da-da, yo, you just need money so that you have the monkey off your back so you can just create freely.
