Why I Love Music
Music is the most important thing in my life, for multiple reasons. It’s basically been what saved me from my home life as a kid. My father’s been pretty traumatic and my mom was an alcoholic, and it caused a lot of my time growing up alone, depending on other things to escape my life. […]
Token – Eraser Shavings (2016) Review
Eraser Shavings is the last of The Token Trilogy, and was his third mixtape, originally released on his website. This is when he was trying to prove himself more than ever, writing braggy tracks, using punchlines, and sounding more intense than on any other project. He also has emotional tracks sprinkled in of course, just […]

Personal Reflection #1: Busy :(
It’s time to take a blog day and talk about myself because music time can’t be every time. Especially when you’re constantly supposed to be doing something in your life. So far for me, it’s been a juggle of work, school, relationships, chores, not having enough sleep, and having no time to do anything i […]
