“People tend to believe that I want to make soul music, which is not entirely untrue but, really, I want to be like the black Tom Waits - I don't want to make one kind of sound.” PeopleWantBelieveKindSoulWaitingSoundBlackTomsUntrueMusic Soul Author:Willis Earl Beal
“I don't think talent has anything to do with inspiration. Inspiration creates talent. People prioritize innate talent too much. It gives them license to walk around and act like assholes. I think I straddle a line between being innately talented and having had to put in some work. You ever go to a party where there are a lot of creative people and they feel like they have license to just act any kind of way? I'm not really a moral person myself, but they just tend to never ever be sincere because they believe their art or the fact that they are artists makes them holy in some way.” PeopleThinkingGivingBelieveKindArtInspirationArtistPartyMoralCreativeTalentHolySincereCreative PeoplePrioritize Author:Willis Earl Beal
