The debut album follows up the debut EP “7”, which was released in 2019.
He said, “With this album I've really stepped into my vulnerability, or like these things that I was insecure about people knowing about, or finding out about me. But with this, I felt very much comfortable, and I feel it's time to do this in my career, it's time to take that vision, where I'm able to show people another side to myself and what I deliver, you know?”
He continued, “This album exuberates confidence, creativity, just me completely stepping out of my comfort zone and saying whatever I want and giving my actual stories, giving my fans something to take from me. You know, 7 was cool, I love 7, it's great, but it wasn't personal enough and I feel like that's exactly what this album's gonna bring.”- source : Spotify
