The only one that is still fresh to me is The Art of Letting Go II, and that's probably because I finished recording it recently. It's the latest thing I've recorded. It's the first covers project where I've tried a new technique to make my vocals sound better, so there's that.

To Live & Love in LA is super old to me. It's gonna be fresh to everyone, but I've been sitting on this for about 2 years. Same with The Art of Holding On. I've sat on these for so long and I'm excited to finally share these covers with the world after a 2 year wait.

Last year, I was pretty closed off and I objected the idea of any kind of connection with anyone. This year, I'm opening myself up to any and all connections. Now that I feel like I have worked through things on a personal level, I feel prepared more than ever now.

I have no idea what the next covers project is gonna sound like, but I'm excited to explore. I'm open to anything. Last year represented me working towards letting go of a lot to move forward. So whatever is next will represent me finally moving forward.

I re-recorded one of my older covers from 2021. This time, the vocals are improved and it actually includes the production. I love this one!

I'm mature in a lot of ways, but I'm also immature in a lot of other ways.

It was originally supposed to end with me dying until I decided to change the ending. The Abyss represents my death. I Never Loved You represents the autopsy and reflecting from the afterlife. But it's too late for regret.

It features a lot of electropop, but it features R&B and pop as well. There are so many epic moments on this covers project.

To Live & Love in LA is a tale of heartbreak. Coping with it through recklessness. Drug use. Alcohol. Sex. Playing with death until it catches up with you eventually. Recording this was so hard, but I remained committed to it. 2020 me came out to record this.

I can't really speak about 2027 just yet. But it's gonna be a great time and not only am I excited, but everyone else should be as well. I'm finally working on finishing something I've been sitting on for far too long.

I've been going over some of my covers I did 5 years ago and I've been re-recording some of them in secrecy. With the production and much better vocals this time. Some are on The Art of Holding On and The Art of Letting Go II. I'm doing more for 2027 too.
January 20, 2026 at 12:33 AM
I'm working on 2027's stuff in February. Can't wait to get to it. I'm super excited about what I've got in store.

Also, just a firm reminder that no matter who you are or how close I am to you, if you say or do something that deeply affects me, you will hear from me. Privately, if I respect you enough. Publicly, if we've gone over this already and you've lost my respect.

I forgive her, but I don't forget. It molded me to rely on myself. If she texted me today, I'd rightfully tell her off. I've given her more chances than I've ever given anyone. I have my limit and I'm doing just fine in my life without her. That's just how it is.
January 19, 2026 at 10:00 PM
It forced me to find myself and find my identity. I had to find my way, so I did. After that, I wasn't the same person who'd rely on her for everything. I wasn't that same person who needed her. I had become my own person. And because of that, we'll never be friends again.
January 19, 2026 at 9:56 PM
But when I became stronger and I figured out my own identity, that's where we started having issues. We'd always end up calling it quits multiple times. It's because I know who I am and I figured that out because she abandoned our friendship.
January 19, 2026 at 9:55 PM
One thing I've realized over time is how essential my former best friend was in my life, and a lot of it had to do with the fact that I didn't know who I was yet. I didn't have my own identity, so my identity became attached to hers. And because of that, I needed her.

It's kinda weird that the first thing a lot of people do when you establish a boundary is not to apologize for crossing your boundaries or acknowledging it. It's immediately them getting upset about it or just flat-out leaving.

It might have taken me 3 consecutive years to record and finish the sequel, but I promise, it's been well worth the wait.

I chose Alice because much like The Art of Letting Go, I wanted something that provided a glimpse of hope after all the heartbreak. I wanted it to showcase resilience in overcoming these obstacles in life. That was my goal. It always rains before the rainbow.
January 19, 2026 at 5:47 PM
So I did mention that The Moment I Knew by Taylor Swift was the opening cover for The Art of Letting Go II. Well, I'm here to reveal the what will close the project. The final cover on The Art of Letting Go II is Alice by Avril Lavigne.
January 19, 2026 at 5:45 PM
And the world won't hear it until September 25th.
January 19, 2026 at 5:43 PM
I chose the original because it comes more from a place of sadness. I'm not trying to bury anyone. The person I recorded it about doesn't deserve that. I wanted something that properly express how I feel, while contributing to consistency of the project.
