Was chatting with my coworker about some stuff today and he asked about my music because he wanted to hear it. Honestly I'd like to reach a point where I don't feel guilty/ashamed of my stuff. It's come up in casual conversations sometimes and people are like "hey let me hear your stuff?". And I think to myself "Eh, you don't want to hear it". Meanwhile there are people spamming their stuff left and right and it's just awful. I think it is fear again. Oddly enough random strangers on the internet I don't mind listening to it. But if I have an actual face to face interaction, I don't know I feel really weird about it. I think I downplay my music a lot just so I don't have to deal with inevitable criticism or dislike of something. But I feel like I should be more open about it and proud. Because I do put in a lot of work and it is important to me, I shouldn't worry about how it stacks up to more popular music or famous artists.
