Reintroductions

I used to super overthink these, so let's try something different.
If you're reading this, I'm Yawny. I write songs and do creative tings with my friends.
I named myself YawnyBlew because it meant nothing, and I wanted to take myself less seriously. My mom named me John. My friends call me Johny.
My favorite color is blue. I love Biggie as much as Bjork and Dragon Ball Z as much as RuPaul's Drag Race. I've always existed between worlds, but i like it here.
I'm working on healing some creative wounds, having more fun, and living more authentically. If you're just joining, the next era will be a bit different from the last. But it's all in the name of evolution and fun.
My proudest moments are when I am uplifting marginalized voices. We all got something to say, and the mic needs to get passed around a little more.
A couple reasons you should stick around: Midnight In Brooklyn, "EvRyDay EvRy Nite," Fkn Bad pt 1 & 2, or BlvkPhury's Lofi Tape Vol 1.
Saddle up for round whateverTF this is. We having fun this time. Love yall.
