YA GOTTA BE KIDDIN’ ME!

If this happened to me a few years ago, I would have jumped out of my skin. But over time, I learned not to believe a lot of things, even if I have a ton of evidence. All I could think when I opened my email last night was…

Ya gotta be kiddin’ me?!

I doubt very strongly that 1000 people follow me. Some are most likely bots, as to be expected. But one thing’s certain: I have never ever paid for likes or follow anywhere on any social platform. You can tell the ones that do that, it’s really easy. My fan base (if I have one) has always been organic. Slow, yes. But the real deal. I’ve read the stories about bands losing their accounts because of being caught buying likes.

I can’t even recall when I signed up for Spotify. Maybe I can look to see if there’s a date that shows it. Even so, who cares? If at least half of the follows are genuine, fine with me. I earned them. Not like my music was ever meant to set the world on fire but I think I created a tiny spark here and there.

It’s funny that the bottom of the post says “people now awaiting your next release”.

Keep waiting.

I’m in no rush whatsoever to do anything.
