So anytime before you try out for a show or competition, or even if it’s not show-related and you’re on the come-up of a music career, you need to have a very, very clear idea of who you are.
Or you will turn into something that you are not, and that is the truth.
I think the most important thing is you need to have a very, very clear idea of who you are as an artist before you let other people tell you who you are.
This industry will shape you and mold you, and if you’re willing to compromise yourself and let yourself change too much, then you’re not really gonna know you are anymore.
