NO GIVING UP.
i wrote this song as a reminder to myself.
every day it feels like the world gets worse, and it makes me want to give up. i feel this way most days - i’m pretty sure most of us do?
it doesn’t feel like its fashionable to talk about your mental health anymore though, let alone release music about it. the expectation is that you deal with it all behind closed doors, so you can put on a happy public face. i’m guilty of it, and when i released this song i felt anxious knowing that it might not match the happy-go-lucky dgaf persona that i usually project. honestly if my favourite rapper released a song like this, i don’t even know if i’d resonate with it. i’d probably think it was lame and go listen to some griselda.
but i didn’t write this song to look cool - i wrote it to reflect on myself, and to speak to anybody else who struggles to get out of bed, who struggles to eat, sleep, or just perform basic tasks. the worst person in the world with the worst agenda you can think of isn’t about to give up. so you can’t give up either. sorry. this song is just meant to be a reminder of that fact
apparently
@nzonairmusic were vibing with how me and will were feeling when we made this song, so they gave us some money to make a video for it. i let Will’s team come to the table for this one, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park.
special thanks to the crew for making this incredible music video
