And so it started with me taking a knee and my voice was still cracking.

And so then I took two knees and then my voice was still cracking.

And then so eventually my hand, my elbow, my knee, I'm all the way close to the ground and I'm just trying to...

I think get the thing out.

It's like maybe trying to ground yourself in the feeling of like what this is supposed to be and like allowing it to come out the way that it's intended to.

Oh, yeah.

I would say I'm not a technical singer.

I started out in poetry, which translated into rap, which translated into I'm the only one in the studio and I really want a singing hook, so I'm just going to sing it myself, which translated to now I'm actually in vocal lessons and trying to figure out my singing voice.

Right.

It's just learning it and then figuring out how to make it do what I'm asking it to do.

There's a lot of times where I'm like, okay, do this.

And it's like, I, you know, I'm not going to do that, you know?

So, um, like trying to get there and figuring out the right tools to allow yourself to get

to get there and I think like being grounded but also leaning on feeling has been like a big thing for me because I don't care if it's pitchy as long as the feeling is translated in the thing I'll settle with that getting closer to the floor like hell I'm an earth sign so I just gotta get grounded but um reaching up I always I do one of these if I'm doing something that fades out I'll hit one of those like it's it is like a wow there's dance to the performance

Yeah, interpretive dance to get your vocals out.

Like, that hit me somewhere.

You know what I mean?

Like, when you kind of like, ooh, okay.

You know, I love turning somebody's face up.

Like, I love turning my face up to good music, too.
