The means of control that record labels had vis-à-vis distribution no longer exist.

I make music. It's kind of what I've always done.

Music and weed go well together, obviously.

I have always had to write songs. As a lifestyle and as a business model, it's pretty difficult. Largely at this point I'm so deep in. I have a lot of skills in this particular world, but it just feels compulsive.

I just write songs, I make music, and I have several times over reinvented my life in order to keep making music and just make music all day. I don't know. It's just what I have to do.

If you get on the radio, people hear it, they buy the record. If you get on Spotify playlist nowadays, people hear it, they buy the record.

There's definitely something broken in the music industry clearly. Partly from downloading and partly the obstacles for discovery and listener choice and artist distribution are gone.
