I started my music journey at fourteen in mid-2014 playing small coffee venues with my ukulele and guitar. In early 2017, I began to grow tired of my acoustic guitar and ukulele. I then moved on, and I started writing “I Can Actually Speak.” The album portrays a lot of things bunched into one that happened between mid-2016 and up until the end of 2017. I endured failed relationships and projects, moving out really young, and realizing how awful human beings can be. This is where the harsh beginning of “I Can Actually Speak” starts.
Listen to the album while reading the text.
In early 2017, I wanted to take a whole new approach to my sound and the way I exposed my feelings with it. I then started writing my album called “I Can Actually Speak.” When I wrote my first EP called “Censorship,” I felt and still feel I didn’t and couldn’t put out my feelings as well. I physically and mentally couldn’t, I didn’t quite understand the feelings I was having. The name of my album “I Can Actually Speak” ties all of the songs together into one saying “this what I can do now, that I couldn’t do before.” Pushing all of the anger, sadness, and frustration out. It felt so clear alongside with taking a new approach on my sound. Everything felt clear.
The beginning of where “I Can Actually Speak” started was not easy, identity issues arose. I didn’t understand a lot of the things that were happening to me, and I couldn’t control how others did things to me. Most of all, I couldn’t stop people from hurting me. I had to let go of a lot of people for the state of my mentality. In the begin, I felt like I couldn’t get the right words out while writing ICAS, but the raw emotion of anger, sadness, and frustration dealt with by me writing on a piece of paper and putting it with a beat and a melody felt right in the end. I didn’t have to make the change for those who aren’t willing to do so, and I can finally feel figured out.
