BAM! It’s here! You might think this is just some simple song about the clothes I casually wear, but it’s actually more about who I am, what I’ve done, and how I fit in. I like to get hype, I like to get nerdy and artsy, I like to rock out and be lyrical, and I like to be comfortable in my own skin and what I’m wearing. I don’t look like your typical rapper and I think that’s okay. I really don’t give a damn if you don’t like my “jorts” or my “muscle shirt”. Haha! This video was fun to make – it started out as a simple “just rap in front of the camera” kinda promo video but I decided to make it something a little more visually unique to match the energy in the song.
Getting back into the swing of things… It’s been a crazy past few months to say the least. I had an amazing trip to New York – I had never been before so I did a lot of walking, sightseeing, and eating delicious food. It was so awesome to get away. Thanks a million to my long time/former bandmate/musical collaborator homie Ron Tarrant at SiriusXM for giving me a place to stay and hooking us up with tickets to see our canadian brethren City and Colour live!! Dallas was after my heart that night when he played “What Makes a Man?”.
I still feel like it’s not real, and it likely will never feel real, but on June 27 my dad, the legend, Richard John Roberts, passed away after a short battle with cancer and the toil it took on his body. How I will ever process this, I don’t know. It’s been weird, but also many people have stepped up to be good to me, while others have showed their true selfish colours, when I needed it most. I’m looking forward to taking my Dad on my next adventure… which is…
