We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Ziggie Knucklez. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Ziggie below.
Ziggie , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Are you happier as a creative? Do you sometimes think about what it would be like to just have a regular job? Can you talk to us about how you think through these emotions?
I’m happy as an artist.
The process of creating can be therapeutic.
Especially music, sometimes you get lost in whatever you’re making and it’s like the rest of the world kinda disappears for a brief moment.
It’s just you and the medium.
I do work a normal job ,I work two,
6-7days per week.
So I never wonder what it’s like to have a normal job but I do wonder what’s it’s like to just create full time. Where I don’t have to call out weeks in advance to do shows or try and rush through deadlines to make time.
I enjoy my current work but I’d give the world to be in creative role 24/7.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
My name is ZiggieKnucklez,
It’s the kraken in this bit**🦑.
I’m a performer at heart,
Wether that be writing , acting , or touching a stage with my collective 66wakes and just raging too the bass of the music.
I grew up in creative spaces from going to the recording studios with my dad or even participating in spoken word competitions.
One thing I’ve realized over the years is keep going , even when you March to the beat of your own drum and others aren’t fond or don’t understand the rhythm, march harder.
Do it because it makes you feel good.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
My only goal is to grow and experience in my creative journey.
I feel as though the path of the creative changes often.
Hopefully that growth and experience allows me to connect and better communicate with others on said journey.
Can you share your view on NFTs? (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice)
I think NFTs are stupid just go buy the art, buy the print, grab the collectors edition CD. Etc … or what ever you’re investing in and boom it’s yours, you own it. I don’t understand how we split and image and then sell it once the value goes up or down…. It sounds like a stock that will always loose value. Idk
NFTs are weird lol.
