I was actually whistling it when the elevator opened and I think I creeped out this lady who thought I was whistling at her

So dope the way he comes out of sillouette right on the beginning of the first chorus, then goes back into sillouette right on the beginning of the second verse

it's weird how the cmera man's shadow gets in the shot; I wonder if it's intentional

one month passes...

the EP is on spotify now

the whole thing is mildly anticlimactic because two of the songs have already been kicking around for a while, the third is dope but the fourth is forgettable. Hope there's something more in the works.

Wondering what's up with this guy now, probably free-associated to him bc of Prince's death.

three weeks pass...

Friends has ten mil plays on Spotify, guess the Bon Iver and Kanye connections help. In general the album seems to be getting more play than past ones.

May I Have This Dance gets a lot of radio play on WFUV (AAA station). Not my fav tune but glad for him to get some exposure anyway.

one year passes...

I kind of slept on Just For Us. Drags a little for me at times, but a couple of tracks are really standing out for me:

A lot of his songs feel like they really want to be hits but are produced a little too stiffly, like demos.
