I was just trying to figure out how to expand on that and I kinda got lost.”
He added, “It's therapeutic and it's, you know, that's how it's always been for me. But with this album, with this new Boogie album, the, the title, everything is fucking, everything's great. And it's like, you know, watching him, watching him just keep getting better and better and better is incredible too. And he's got so much of his life weaved in this album. You know what I'm saying? Like, I think that it's like, it's therapeutic.”
