Haters & Trolls in music…

I know I get a lot of haters & trolls. I’ve been dealing with that shit for years, but, I understand that’s the name of the game when you become a musician. You have to deal with all kinds of hateful and critical people everywhere. It doesn’t matter how good your music is. It doesn’t matter how good of a person you are. Male or female. You’re gonna get haters. Haters are gonna hate, period. All bands and music artists get their share of haters (I’m sure EBJ gets a lot of them too). While this is ridiculous, and I do hate that people feel the need to be negative toward music artists who work hard to entertain people, you just have to realize that you can’t please everyone.

Haters can actually be inspiring people, honestly. Why? Because they let you know what they don’t like about you, and you can actually learn from them to improve yourself. Plus, they can help make you tougher and keep doing what you love is playing music. If you want to succeed in your dreams and goals as a music artist or if you’re in a band, you must stay above these people, and ignore them.

This is why I’m strict on moderating comments everywhere. Whether it will be in my facebook page, my blog or youtube channel. I have to moderate comments so I can eliminate negativity and drama of any kind.

Yes, I do know about other people making anonymous accounts to bully me in other places online. I do know about all the hateful youtube videos targeting me, I do know about the anonymous facebook accounts targeting me, and even twitter accounts. I also know about the anonymous blogs attacking me as well. I let that stuff go, ’cause I can’t do anything about that stuff. People can attack me else where, but not in my world. See what I’m saying?

I want to be around good people who are actually supportive and kind. There are supporters out there who have my back. I have my share of fans too. This is another reason why I’m strict on moderating so they don’t have to deal with negativity of other people too. It’s not just about me.

I’m not a selfish, ego-driven, attention whoring guy, that people mistakenly see me as. If you give me a chance, you’ll see that I can have heart and actually care about other people.
