Do you have any advice for a novice?

My man D.C. is setting up a gig for me in Cali this summer. So, I plan to fly out there for my first show. It's a small outdoor venue. I'll just perform one song or so. So, it won't be a full set.

What's funny is this. My rap persona is like an entirely separate entity from me, Michael. It feels like in order to perform, I have to conjure up that alter-ego to bring what I bring on my tracks. It's the same way when I make a song. The rap part of me feels surreal almost.

Does anyone else feel like this?
