The Daily Dose: Who’s Who ?
So its no secret AT ALL, that I’m a social media junkie. I love being online, I love meeting people I don’t know and catching up with people I do know. Like, I’m ALL ABOUT IT. With that said though, I doubt I’d be online if I weren’t Tehn Diamond. I’m in a way kinda private as a person, and just don’t know what value I’d truly be adding to the internets as just ME.
But thats just how I feel.
Essentially I’m on here tryna build a brand, get my name and my music out there and all that mess. But when it really boils down to it, I’m on here selling ME. Cos’ as it turns out nobody just buys the music anymore, they buy into the person behind the music. Which in my opinion makes perfect sense.
In an age of transparency and high-speed information exchanges going on….who in the fuck has time to pause and pay attention to “the fake” ?
I for one don’t and wouldn’t expect any of you to either.
That bit of reasoning is the very reason I blog the way I do or tweet the way I do or update my facebook statuses the way I do…..its not always pleasant and beautiful….sometimes its crude and rude and ugly….then other times its inspiring and motivating….why though ?
Well, because I’m a human being. And being human, at the end of the day is a full experience…that encompasses so many different emotions on a day to day basis. In my mind, to sit there and just dish out just straight “positive vibes” for the sake of appeasing you or making you feel like “ooh Tehn is so deep and so positive” is just ridiculous and petty deception.
I’d rather just give you the real. I enjoy expressing how I ACTUALLY feel online and not something manufactured, processed or painstakingly thought out. I have my core beliefs, and those don’t change, but like anyone else I lose sight of them from time to time. Its allowed.
Don’t you understand that what makes this whole experience so awesome, is that sometimes its very very far from awesome. Its those dark moments that make the light that much brighter.
All I’m saying there’s no crime in embracing every part of ur humanity, the good, the bad & the ugly….its all beautiful really.
Peace,Love & just being who it is you is…
Tehn Diamond
