On creative role models.

I think the most prominent trait I’ve seen in people that I look up to is constant change. They’ve always come up with new things, changed the game that they themselves play and therefore created things that the world didn’t even know thy needed.

Like Dave Chapelle, who’s done comedy for 35 years still being funny and intelligent. Still creating new things.

Like Kanye West, who’s gone against everything that everybody has ever told him. Launching clothing companies, making Hip-Hop albums with orchestras and now going what he thinks is the right way with christianity.

Like Gary Vaynerchuk always creating things in a new form, admitting that he was wrong before. Creating garage-sale series on Youtube despite being financially very stable, or turning to platforms whenever they pop up.

Like Seth Godin, who consistently has been doing his thing, letting people come to him. Knowing that people like him would do things like he’d like to do.

Like the Swedish Hip-Hop icon, Silvana Imam, creating not only music but a brand and an icon. Knowing that just music wouldn’t do it for her, that she has more to express through other arts, clothing and speaking up.

Create. Always be creating.
