I was just telling my boyfriend how i wished i knew the layout of this song then a couple days later you post this! Thank you so much for sharing! 🙌🏼❤️

[@Makwaje]

11:51 No one will tell you this for real!, Everyone is focusing on the production quality and forget about the goal and the feeling of the track. This is literally shocked me, now I understand why I can't stop listening to "album1". Thank you for sharing and all of your hard work

[@Inflake]

The chorus never fail to make me scream at the top of my lungs

[@ivandominguez6056]

I WAS IN THAT ROOM!!! You’re the G for releasing it!! %^^

[@Inflake]

DON’T LOOK DON’T LOOK DOWN WHEN LIFE GETS TOO LOUUUUUUUDDDDD

I love your approach to music and the weight and depth you give to each song! Thanks for sharing your process, cool to see how long it took and how much patience it took to get it to feel complete

[@galaxxynoize]

This is so inspiring

[@sungjun0710]

Preach 🙏

[@SlowMagicMusic]

❤️

[@johngrey9157]

The one thing I learned from following you since Lights was that it's the feeling that makes a song great

[@fish_birb]

11:06 Really relate to this as an artist - sometimes it's just about the _feeling_ of the art itself that concludes if your art is finished or not. Albeit of course it will never be perfect!

[@heyblondie28]

Is there anywhere we can get the full version of this??

[@Money_Facer]

For older heads, this video is so informative. Thanks, I've been wondering how you do what you do for a long time.

[@RiceyBhoy89]

San the vocals purely on their own sounded heavenly. Acoustic version? Maybe some drum and bass tied in? I’ve no idea 😂 but the vocals damnn Sannn 😍

[@jesuscasas6501]

Épico

[@_luni_2834]

full video?

[@luka5947]

The reason why there is latency in the project is because of the RX de-click. Just a heads up.

[@nelsondernaam1776]

whahah i would go crazy due to the latency and lagg with a project like this

[@jaryn683]
