And it's interesting that, growing up on the circuit, it posed such a challenge, not only to me deciding what my identity was amongst my peers, but then on the music side, it was like trying to explain or convince people especially in the music industry that there was a place for what I was trying to do. But at the same time, I think it has a lot to do with timing and even me, like, understanding it.” PeopleThinkingTryingUnderstandingSidesChallengesInterestingGrowing UpGrowingIdentityHugeIndustryTasteDiversityConnectionsMusicalConvinceTimingPeersParallelsMusic IndustryCircuitsMusical TasteEthnic Diversity Author:Miguel
