Matt when you said you were going in a different direction no cap I low-key couldn't see the vision BUT just because you don't understand something doesn't mean you should stop supporting someone. This is something I didn't know I needed!!!! Hearing your story and the stories of all my fav dancers is so inspiring and adds more depth and appreciation for y'alls craft.
