1
This is literally like my dream.
2
I'm living the dream right now.
3
I used to watch Genius with my friends in high school, bro.
4
I just watched that one Lil' Tucker interview and got no chefs.
5
I was like, we kept watching that every day.
6
There was probably some point where I was like,
7
bro, guys, I'm going to be on Genius one day.
8
Watch this.
9
And they're like, nah.
10
But here I am, bro.
11
So Blue was inspired by the C drama I watched.
12
It's called When I Fly Towards You.
13
I watched it on Discord with this girl that I was really crushing on.
14
We watched the whole thing together.
15
Best experience bro.
16
I had so much fun.
17
It was just the sea drama and this girl and I put it together.
18
I put all my emotions into this and then Blue came out.
19
What verse
20
1 is about is love at first sight.
21
Morning eyes is like, I want to wake up with you.
22
I want to see your eyes in the morning.
23
They're like stars.
24
I could walk you by.
25
I could tell without a thought.
26
It's just like literally I can take a glance at her and I'll just be like,
27
she's the one.
28
She's my future.
29
I tried to put my true feelings,
30
my true emotions into it.
31
I tried to think of the C-drama.
32
I tried to think of some scenes that I was like, oh my god.
33
I felt like I was about to cry or something.
34
Those scenes, I just thought about what I felt when I was watching that scene.
35
I translated it.
36
Originally actually, verse 2 was the chorus.
37
I sent it to some people and they were like, it's not bad.
38
I was like, okay, you know what?
39
They're not feeling it.
40
So I just kind of pushed it down and then I just muted it,
41
left it for later.
42
And then I just kept freestyling for like,
43
literally like an hour or two, right?
44
It's just straight, just the chorus,
45
repeat the chorus, and then just keep freestyling, think of melodies.
46
And then suddenly I just started like,
47
I was like, oh my God, it's pretty good.
48
And then I recorded it.
49
I was like, it's not bad.
50
And it sent to my friends and they were like, what the fuck?
51
Like it's so good.
52
And that's what I knew.
53
I was like, ah, this is the one.
54
I'll leave my heart with your air.
55
So let me fly with you.
56
Will you be forever with me?
57
In the chorus, I mentioned like waves,
58
ocean, moonlight skies, leave my heart with your air.
59
You know, it's kind of like blue skies.
60
There's a lot of elements of blue but I didn't actually say blue.
61
And I feel like people that listen to my song,
62
they'll be like, right, that's blue.
63
That sounds like blue.
64
Verse 2 kind of sounds like a bridge actually.
65
It's like big loud chorus and suddenly just dip.
66
I feel like just if there's drums in a song,
67
it's just like there's momentum.
68
Drums, I feel like brings a lot to the song.
69
Just taking the drums out is like,
70
it has a nice effect.
71
The last line of verse 2,
72
it kind of comes from a TikTok.
73
It's just like a picture, right?
74
It was these two birds.
75
I think it was something like,
76
do you think we're best friends in other worlds or other universes too?
77
And then the other bird was like, huh, I don't know.
78
And then you scroll, right?
79
It's like a bunch of different panels of like different art styles.
80
The same two birds, same two positions.
81
It's like, do you think we're best friends in other universes?
82
Oh yeah.
83
Yeah.
84
You know?
85
And then I was like, damn, that hits bro.
86
I really like listening to like Juice WRLD, X, Loteca.
87
Yeah, I was just so inspired.
88
Like I tried to make music like them,
89
but it just didn't work.
90
I posted some songs on like SoundCloud that didn't do that good.
91
I started making beats a lot.
92
That also didn't really work.
93
But the thing is, my mind was always set on like I wanted to do music for sure.
94
I tried to like experiment with stuff,
95
you know, making different kinds of genres.
96
I started going to guitar classes and I started singing on TikTok.
97
Literally like the first video that I put up,
98
I remember I was expecting like,
99
damn, it would be crazy if I got like 500 views.
100
But it got like 30k.
101
I think I was singing like a Bebe Doobie song.
102
It got like 30k views.
103
I was like, oh my god, dude, that's crazy.
104
So I just, during my gap year,
105
I just posted one cover like every day, like every single day.
106
That's how I kind of gained like a following, I guess.
107
And then people just liked it.
108
I was like, maybe this is my direction.
109
Wait, did Lisa sit here?
110
Yeah.
111
In this chair?
112
Pretty sure.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
