We were doing. When I went
00:00:02.667 --> 00:00:06.103
To college, I did not go back
the second year because I
00:00:06.105 --> 00:00:07.104
The second year because I
really did not want a plan b. I
00:00:07.106 --> 00:00:07.937
Really did not want a plan b. I
said, you know what? It's going
00:00:07.939 --> 00:00:10.034
Said, you know what? It's going
to be this or I'm going to be
00:00:10.342 --> 00:00:12.576
To be this or I'm going to be
80 trying to do it. And I told
00:00:12.578 --> 00:00:15.178
80 trying to do
it. And I told my
00:00:15.847 --> 00:00:19.998
Mother that I wanted to drop
out and pursue music, and she
00:00:19.001 --> 00:00:21.318
Out and pursue music, and she
surprisingly said, sure. And I
00:00:21.032 --> 00:00:22.519
Surprisingly said, sure. And I
think the reason she said sure
00:00:22.521 --> 00:00:25.555
Think the reason she said sure
is because of what I didn't
00:00:25.557 --> 00:00:27.324
Is because of what I didn't
know, which is that my father
00:00:27.326 --> 00:00:29.827
Know, which is that my father
was a brilliant singer. He
00:00:29.829 --> 00:00:31.261
Was a brilliant singer. He
passed away when I was eight
00:00:31.263 --> 00:00:32.496
Passed away when I was eight
years old, and they said that I
00:00:32.498 --> 00:00:35.966
Years old, and they said that
I got it from him. So I said,
00:00:35.968 --> 00:00:38.997
Got it from him. So I said,
I'm going to focus my entire
00:00:38.999 --> 00:00:40.604
I'm going to focus my entire
life and whole energy into
00:00:40.606 --> 00:00:42.673
Life and whole energy into
this, and there is no other
00:00:42.675 --> 00:00:43.406
This, and there is no other
consideration. So rejection
00:00:43.408 --> 00:00:44.997
Consideration. So rejection
will just have to happen. And
00:00:44.999 --> 00:00:46.243
Will just have to
happen. And if it
00:00:48.999 --> 00:00:51.215
Happens, it will happen.
And I'll keep on going.
