If you are posting your music on YouTube, maybe start with a popular cover done in a unique way.

If It's your passion and you want to do it for the rest of your life, why would comments stop you from doing that?

Be different; be unique; be yourself.

Be respectful to your peers and yourself, of course. Don't be a jerk. But at the same time don't settle for anything less than yourself.

I only wish to climb even higher during the rest of my career bc with the power of Team Grimmie, I won't stop.

If you can't find what's unique, people aren't going to listen.

Confidence is not 'they will like me'. Confidence instead is 'I'll be fine if they don't'.
