First off, I want to apologize for being completely absent from not only posting videos, but also from giving any updates on my situation.
I've been keeping a low profile so the things that I've been working on come as a surprise, but mostly so I can avoid having this conversation with you all as well.
Here's the gist of what I've been keeping quiet about: I've been working on my music for a few months (since before my last update), have been slowly conceptualizing a brand for my music, and have been building a plan for my music career moving forward.
On that note, you're probably wondering what's been going on with my YouTube, and why I haven't even mentioned it yet.
That's the part that I haven't been looking forward to discussing...
To be completely honest: I don't want to do YouTube. At least not Minecraft YouTube.
I stated in a previous update that I was moving away from making *only* Minecraft content. But the truth is that I don't want to do Minecraft content at all.
I've gotten bored with the genre, and I feel like I've completely grown out of that style of content.
The overly competitive nature of it is what had alienated me away from it in the past as well. But I came back anyways, because I felt I needed to.
There wasn't any other way I saw that I could grow my audience besides making Minecraft content. I mean, I had already become accustomed to this genre, so why not continue doing what I'm already good at?
But at this point, I don't care about growing an audience. Especially by making content that I genuinely hate making.
I want to do what I want to do, and when I want to do it.
I know I can't just give up on all my fans, and I won't. But I want to put my focus into doing something that I genuinely love to do instead.
I will mainly be focusing on my music from now on, but I have a few fun ideas for games other than Minecraft that I plan to upload down the line (just maybe don't expect anything anytime soon).
It may be a while before I return again. I don't wanna get into the details, but this past week has brought some really devastating news in my personal life, and I'm gonna continue spending the next few weeks offline.
Things aren't gonna be the same from now on, but I hope that's something that we together will learn to accept.
