I’m thinking about quitting music

[u/Ljfrost55]

I’m thinking about quitting music bc I’m not qualified my voice is too deep for the style I like and anytime I try to make a song that’s not a replica of an artist I like or that’s not a ballad I always just sound like some cringey 2010s nonsense I started out on bandlab and type beats with different influences than I do now my influences went from lil tecca and juice world to twenty one pilots and Olivia Rodrigo I love music so much, without music i wouldn’t be here prolly lol but I want to be that for someone else I hate just sitting from the sidelines watching people live my dream i want to be that person on stage and i want to be to someone else what twenty one pilots is to me but it’s so hard i have only one song im making im satisfied with and every time i try to record it’s always “one of those days” for my voice if I don’t make it im gonna be stuck to a 9-5 and I can’t live that way idk why im making this post i guess just to see if anyone else out there feels the same or encouragement idk but I need an answer

Basic grammar and punctuation to make this readable:

I’m thinking about quitting music bc I’m not qualified. My voice is too deep for the style I like and anytime I try to make a song that’s not a replica of an artist I like, or that’s not a ballad, I always just sound like some cringey 2010s nonsense.

I started out on BandLab and type beats with different influences than I do now. My influences went from Lil Tecca and Juice World to Twenty One Pilots and Olivia Rodrigo.

I love music so much. Without music I wouldn’t be here prolly, lol. But I want to be that for someone else. I hate just sitting from the sidelines watching people live my dream. I want to be that person on stage and I want to be to someone else what Twenty One Pilots is to me but it’s so hard.

I have only one song I'm making I'm satisfied with and every time I try to record it’s always “one of those days” for my voice. If I don’t make it I'm gonna be stuck to a 9-5 and I can’t live that way.

Idk why I'm making this post, I guess just to see if anyone else out there feels the same or encouragement, idk but I need an answer.

Hang in there, and make music for yourself.
