⁣When thinking whether or not to do an Earl Sweatshirt feature I had to first Lay out the backdrop of the story with the understanding of what art in its truest form is. The freedom of expression. Filled with love, the****utic, passionate, subjective, pure and without boundaries, or criticism, To me at least. Because when creating art, these things, among others depending on the person, are innately present. But that’s when speaking of art that you probably intend to stash away in a basement somewhere and never allow the world to see. Earl Sweatshirt is an interesting character because creatively he’s always been free to express himself due to having successful parents, that financially weren’t burdened enough to bound his thoughts, but just prominent enough for him to strive for more in Lieu of being a failure in their and his own eyes. This freedom of expression created an artist that’s so deeply in touch with his artistic side, and used to freedom expressing it, he can come off as extremely RANDOM when viewed in the confines of society. But when viewed as a rapper that had a Jetson like speed of ascendence, tied to a group and group mate that gained notoriety even faster, he was expected to follow right behind to possible red carpets, grammy nominations and wins, radio and t.v, successful clothing brands and fashion recognition.. Basically next up. Instead, none of those became true for Earl, yet he's still in a good place. The Most Randomly Dope Rapper! What Happened To Earl Sweatshirt?
