Chill Vibes - Tumblr Posts

Sometimes we need to unplug. Step away from all of the tech and overdue tasks that are causing us anxiety so that we can look at the big picture.

From one person with too much on their plate to another. Turn it off, relax, let your creative brain 🧠 help you solve problems you are working on.

Shuffle back and forth between the two worlds of your consciousness and subconscious. This is where the toughest problems are solved and where creative breakthroughs are made.

I love ❤️ you,

Im just here for the vibes…

Believe it or not yall I used to have serious social media anxiety.

As a black male educator it was easier to just conform and keep a low profile by either leaving social media alone, or only posting sporadically the achievements of my students or my self.

While it was a part if me, it was never the real me. Certainly not the parts of me that are authentically artistic.

To get over this stigma that I had of posting I just started to record myself all the time as I attempted to create, engineer, record myself, etc.

Welp, while I have been able to overcome that obstacle by just posting consistently.

Now I want my message to be clearer. I want to reach more people with my art. I want to create art that will move people and that will be undeniable.

Simultaneously working on my music business and upping my social media game is mentally taxing for the mind.

Then there js the fact that I have to get your attention with a hook and I only got 3-seconds to do it like wtf 😳

Sometimes, ya just wann vibe ya know. I have to if I want to get into my creative flow state.

I took this pic in my phone 📱 of my studio and inverted. Idk i think they look really dope next to each other like this and offers a unique perspective on… perspective lmao.

Comment with your best studio vibes pick!

Bonus:

Heres me and my lil daughter jamming in the studio together. Lala is my world! 🌎 ❤️

I’ve been using the arpeggiator function recently on my mpc. It’s pretty dope once you set your chord progression because it opens up all melodic instruments and synths to way more possibilities!

Shhhhhh it's sleepy time. Hopefully she won't be awakened by a nightmare of the past 🙃

Sitting on the floor is an activity too

Coffe time and piano

Kind of a work in progress, and I wanna continue it so bad but I still dont have my laptop and also just wanna post it, cuz I dont hate it

My best friend came by this evening. After I cooked a snack she randomly whipped out two craft bags she'd set behind the couch. Cleaned off the table. Then proceeded to unpack box after box of beads, string, clasps, etc etc

I was feeling crappy but pushed through sitting down and getting situated with crafty stuff. I started feeling better after a while, making a lil bracelet. It's cute! The main charm, I didnt realize until after, glows in the dark. Hehe. Yesssssss.

Then I randomly had the urge to dig into my cabinet for craft twigs. Started making a lil wall-hanging. Each beaded strand representing each member of our friend group, with some neutrals in between.

Gonna be cute as heck when I'm done with it. My hips locked up from sitting so long. It'd have been worse if I hadn't pulled my super cushioned accent chair up to the table to sit in.

She just left a little while ago. I got my kiddos wound down for bed a tad early. Incense and a candle going in my room. All tucked in and cozy. I took my bracelet off but still feel the phantom sensation on my wrist.

So sleepy. So cozy. I love it when she comes over. She's such a soothing, safe bubble of a being and I'm always super relaxed and dozy during/after visits.

Auntie Reindeer, my eldest lovingly, accidentally, called her. (She's Auntie Raven) I lost my train of thought. Like. The entire train, gone xD

Rest well y'all.

Time out

It’s giving 60s if you ignore the headphones jsjdsj

Just imagine

Nobody ever tells you that emptiness weights the most.
