(2/2) ... "Man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor." 
 
As an artist, my ultimate goal is to peel away the artificial layers that have accumulated over the years and rediscover my true self, while eradicating the faux self.  
 
A few months ago, I had the privilege of meeting Anne Cibron (Booba's manager for the past 21 years) who is a remarkable person. We immediately connected as we share similar backgrounds; Jurists who were not content with the legal profession, we both turned to the world of art. Anne introduced me to the concepts of the true and faux self which made me question everything and slowly but surely set me on this journey. 
 
Bonus; I’m learning Spanish rather quickly here and will soon be quadrilingual 🤓

(1/2) I am pleased to announce that I have just completed a 15-day dopamine detox, during which I had no access to my phone, my computer, the internet, and other electronic devices. Instead, I spent my time engaging in sports, reading books, meditating, and reflecting on myself and nature in the Spanish mountains. Words cannot express how beneficial this experience was for my inner peace, which I believe will have a positive impact on my music. 
 
I must admit that this was not an easy undertaking, as there were times when I felt extremely bored and doubted my decision to disconnect. Nevertheless, I believe that it is important to embrace boredom, as we live in a society that values instant gratification and often overlooks the value of stillness and reflection. This challenge also served as an opportunity for me to conquer my own inner demons, as we are often our own worst enemies (this is still an ongoing process) 
 
During this detox, I made a conscious effort to eliminate habits and substances that I deemed toxic or detrimental to my physical and mental health, such as to***co, MJ, video games, and refined sugar (still working on that last one hehe). This was not easy, but then again, what in life that's worthwhile is easy? My favorite quote is as follows …

Today, I had the pleasure of having lunch with the one and only , who is not only an amazing mentor but also a truly remarkable person. Talking about music, artistry, and creativity with someone who has achieved so much in their career left me feeling inspired and energized to pursue my passions with renewed vigor and determination 💪🏻
