Joel quitting daily to make masterpieces like this is the best decision he did so far

[@sarahprince2412]

Agreed. He needs to remember that he doesn’t have to post everyday even though it would be nice to see just to please us. As long as he puts out great content and not just put stuff out just because then he will always have followers who will enjoy his content. Remember, quality over quantity. That’s why I love his It Kills Me song from the first video he did with Jax. Amazing song.
