100-Word Bio

Eric Leo 108 is a Michigan-based hip-hop artist, author, and sociologist creating independent, idea-driven art at the intersection of music, philosophy, and economics. A graduate of Eastern Michigan University, Eric is known for his “edutainment” approach—using hip-hop as a vehicle for systems analysis, social critique, and personal discipline. With over 200 released tracks, major collaborations, and a growing catalog of books, he operates entirely outside traditional industry models. His work prioritizes ownership, consistency, and long-term cultural impact over virality, blending rigorous thinking with accessible, emotionally grounded music.

Who Is Eric Leo 108?

Eric Leo 108 is not a conventional rapper. He is a multidisciplinary creator building a self-sustaining ecosystem through music, books, and direct-to-fan platforms. His work explores power structures, inequality, belief systems, and human potential, translating complex ideas into clear, listenable narratives. All releases are independent and strategically designed to function both as standalone works and as parts of a larger philosophical framework.

The Artistry

Eric’s music is lyrical, concept-driven, and intentionally substance-first. His subject matter spans economics, politics, spirituality, love, mental health, and labor—approached through a sociological and philosophical lens. Stylistically, his technical precision draws comparisons to Eminem, while his message-forward focus aligns more closely with Immortal Technique and KRS-One.

He continues to release new music every Friday, maintaining a weekly schedule since 2023; in 2025 alone he released 74 tracks across approximately 54 drops, bringing his total output to 10 albums, 8 EPs, and over 233 published tracks.

Many books are released with free abridged PDFs and audiobooks, with optional deluxe bundles available through FIENSE.com/books.

2026 Focus: Networking, Community & Investment

In 2026, Eric’s primary focus is networking and community growth—building durable relationships with artists, educators, organizers, venues, and aligned partners while expanding his educational and creative ecosystem. A central priority is growing Helm 108, his Skool-based community, which functions as a hub for philosophy, sociology, music business education, and independent artist development.

In parallel, Eric is expanding his direct-to-fan membership program at FIENSE.com/memberships, offering supporters structured and exclusive access.

He is also actively seeking an investor for business marketing and to launch RapperHooks.com, a scalable beat-and-hook marketplace pairing original and Ryini instrumentals with Eric Leo 108 hooks. The business plan is complete, and the platform is designed to generate recurring revenue while serving independent artists.

06/05/2026 “Facts and Reasoning” is my 167th official release and 239th track published. The beat is by Ryini and was self-produced. 

This is totally not for children, some adults won’t be able to handle, let alone accept or perceive what I’m about to say here, especially American conservatives which is who I’m really referencing when I say this is totally not for children. This song is loaded but it comes down to this. Becuase of republican propaganda Americans have a larger issue with punishing gays and trans for their mere existence than focusing on their economy. To be specific, Trump and the republicans made American’s hate trans people and think they are the problem, while the real issue was the economy that Trump lied and distracted you from about how he was gonna ruin it. And look what happened. The country is now insolvent for the first time.

This is divine justice. You wanna get all riled up about oppressing gays and black people. Okay, how about you pay more to live for being an idiot. The truth is Trump is a con man that whipped the stupid people of the united states into a racist and homophobic fervor to gain power so he could leverage the economy through economic downturn to enrich himself. That is exactly what happened. And whether you choose to recognize that or not doesn’t change the validity and facts of that statement. 

I see republicans all the time saying that trans people are creeping in bathrooms. There is no credible evidence to say that this is an issue. Conservatives and MAGA will call trans people pedafiles with no evidence or credibility and take up some moral crusade against the LGBTQ community. Listen to me, as a straight white male with authority, fuck you, you’ve been propagandized and your hurting the country. You’ll say all these things about trans people with no validity but when a convicted felon sex criminal runs for office you’ll vote for and defend him. You have no moral highground, you are immoral. STFU!

The people that are so sure homesexuality is wrong and perverse couldn’t get a C on a biology test. Again, you’re an idiot. Those in power distract you from the economy, which is the real issue that affects everyone, for an infinitesimal issue that is not even a problem and is used to oppress a group of people that are just honest, hard working Americans. This is like what MAGA would say all the time “Trump could cure cancer, and you’d still hate him;” when in reality Trump ended cancer research and finding a cure and MAGA still supports him. You had to learn the hard way didn’t you America. 

Look I’m really not some social justice warrior; I’m just not an idiot. Fuck trans people, their not worth my time. Their only worth my time because you decided to oppress them and I don’t stand for injustice. When the truth is It is in your own self-interest to ignore the LGBTQ if you don’t agree, because their are way more prescient issues to address. But your so stupid, you’ll create a problem by oppressing them, while ignoring and distracting for the real issues that affect everyone

I honestly think Blue did this one purpose. Trump is the Obama redux, and we’re gonna get the Trump redux soon, and that’s what Blue is looking for. Economist argue that real change only comes when it affects the economy or normal people’s wallets. In this way, Blue did this on purpose to teach you a lesson America. This is the way I and Blue operate. Unlike a mother that will prevent you from doing something so you don’t get hurt, Blue and I will let you do it to teach you a lesson why you should never do that shit again. Blue will totally make you learn the hard way through pain. This is why I don’t fuck with Blue and why I think god is vengeful like you read about in the bible. I worship through action by deriving egalitarian logic and the gods want peace, love, and unity, and if you don’t give it to them they will make you suffer. This is not your warped version of Jesus that shields those in power from responsibility. The Gods I know, will make you pay for your indecency in very real ways. 

As far a the lyrics go. I say this is “facts and reasoning” as a retort to Ben Shapiro who says “facts over feelings” while leveraging his faith and not facts and disseminating his feelings that are not based in truth or pronounced without any real reasonable logic or understanding. I’m glad he’s fallen off recently and happy he is finally seen as the derisive anti-American zionist he is. This is what I mean when I say I’ll rub my shit in your face America. And this is what I mean when I say America will be mad that they didn’t know about me sooner cuz I bring real perspective, candor, understanding, and retort in the public sphere that would help the people and public. 

I actually made this song as a response Dylan Stevens. I started to follow him on instagram because he sympathises with getting aggressive toward offenders, especially ones against women. Believe it or not, I appreciate the sentiment. But he made a video about how we have to keep trans people out of women’s bathrooms. I responded to that video telling him there is no credible evidence to believe what he was saying, he should leave trans people out of the rhetoric of creepers in bathrooms, that by far and away trans people are honest good people, and that he should check himself because “we need you king.” It went viral in his comment section, and I stand by it. I don’t post anything in the comment sections that I wouldn’t defend with a written argument like I normally have on my channels. 

Christianity can’t see sex properly, and what they think is perversion is normal, and what they find normal is really perversion like condom use, teen pregnancy, pregnancy out of wedlock, and abstinence education. Christianity ruins all of that because their view on sex is perverted. I know your thinking that marriage is proof Christianity is superior but marriage pre-dates christianity and was a pagan tradition that Christianity appropriated and perverted. In all honesty, Christians should just STFU about sex because their the problem. 

As another example of this, there was recently a mass shooter that was trans and America got riled up again about how trans people are enemy. While the truth is the majority of mass shooters are straight white male conservatives. Again, STFU!

This is what Obama said in one of his speeches. The point of this is for those in power to flood the public sphere with propaganda until the people don’t know who to turn to and it erodes public trust. Well when the redux comes from all of this, the people will end up going after the children and families of those responsible, like they should. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. And when I get on the mic talking about screw their children, this is what I mean. Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean you won’t get yours. And in this case, if you kill the message, for sure it will be your children, mark my words. 

Just to put it in perspective, america is perverted when it comes to their perspective of sexuality, probably because of Christianity as discussed. In other cultures, and especially ancient times, home sexually was not oppressed. Mark Antony, the Roman emperor was famously Bi. And just so you know, Spartan men used to wear perfume and brush their hair to look beautiful and would often spend a lot of time on their appearance. There is totally poetry written by Spartan soldiers about giving falacio to their fellow soldiers.

Plato talked about soldiers homosexual tendencies in his writings. He made clear that gay men would fight harder and longer because they would rather die a million times over then watch their lover die in battle. I found this out writing a research paper in college about what caused ancient Greece to dawn upon a golden age, which I put as an appendix in my book Farming Humans which you can get at farminghumans.com. In other words, MAGA, you don’t know shit bitch, STFU and stop hurting the country.

05/29/2026 “Tell Me Why” is my 166th official release and 238th track published. The beat is by Ryini and was produced by Keyano Beats. If you want to see me continue to release and bring you this art, I need your support! “Tell Me Why” is from the America 2 album which releases September 25th, but you can get it now from my website at https://fiense.com/america. Thank you. 

Tell me why is about demanding answers from the American government and politicians why life in America is unaffordable. To be clear, it was unaffordable before Trump, but Trump made it way worse. Housing, healthcare, childcare, and education are all unaffordable in America. Like the song says, this is because of the economic doctrine and economic policy that prioritizes and gives money to the richest in society. The tax code, corporate home ownership, education as a debt sentence, the cost of childcare, privatized healthcare, no workers rights over production, not taxing unrealized gains, lobbying, and buying elections have all made the economy serve the richest while burdening the poor and middle class. We have turned commodities into asset classes that make the wealth richer while outpricing the average American to the point of societal dysfunction. The people benefiting the most from the economic doctrine are the ones that have bought the political system and are making the rules. If you demanded that they tell you why this is happening, with proof instead of propaganda, you’d see it’s the wealthy rigging the system so it’s unaffordable for the average American while the top earners balloon their fortunes at the expense of American society.

05/22/2026 “Guap” is my 166th official release and 238th track published. The beat is by Crucifix Beats and was self-produced. If you want to see me continue to release and bring you this art, I need your support! Buy me a coffee and consider a membership at fiense.com/memberships 

This is a response to the recent beef 50 Cent got into with TI, his family, Papoose and others. I am mainly focusing on the back and forth between TI, Papoose, and 50. I’m honestly not trying to pick sides but I do try to deescalate the situation. If anything I am taking TI’s side and trying to bring perspective to 50 from a neutral party. The truth is, Hip-hop doesn’t really have a voice of reason. It basically needs a ref. Someone that says, “Hey this is a valid point as an outside observer.” This is not a diss, but it is intended to give perspective. 

This took me so long to put out because I was trying to get a feature. I tried with two artists before I gave up and mixed and published it myself. Less I sit on it too long and it become irrelevant. I wish the best for TI and his family, Papoose, and 50. I honestly wish hip-hop would bring a more collaborative and brotherly spirit and focus on a larger goal we an achieve together. I like the the current collab between MGK and Wiz, for example. 

Look I don’t want a beef, especially with a black man. I’m trying to help you out hip-hop by making you focus on the truth, give perspective, and help it become more altruistic. That’s honestly my goal. There are two ways to leverage relationships in hip, competition and collaboration and I choose collaboration every time. Healthy competition is good, but negative competition is not worth my time. Just to put into perspective why I’m like this. 

People don’t think Gaia, the planet Earth brings justice and there is no cosmic justice. You know I can’t really prove if there is or not, but what I will say is that Gaia works on the cosmic timeline and her goal is mold evolution. If Earth’s existence were compressed into a single calendar year, modern humans would appear only in the final minutes before midnight on December 31. Which means 100 years would be less than a second. Gaia has told me it takes about three seconds to make her evolution “correction,” but eventually, she always gets her will.  Which means, she will come after your children.The question is do you want her to help them, or end them. According to the Williams Group About 70% of wealthy families lose their wealth by the second generation and about 90% lose it by the third generation. So this checks out as a sociologist. In this way, if you care about your children, don’t start beef with me. I’m honestly trying to make things better and I’m afraid of what Gaia will do to your family, fair warning. Please don’t bring negativity or especially violence to my doorstep or I’m afraid there will be unforeseen cosmic consequences.

05/15/2026 “AOC” is my 166th official release and 238th track published. The beat is by Ryini and was produced by Keyano Beats. If you want to see me continue to release and bring you this art, I need your support! “AOC” is from the Mister Congeniality 2 album which releases August 28th, but you can get it now from my website at https://fiense.com/mister-congeniality. Thank you. 

AOC is my favorite politician, after Bernie Sanders. AOC is refreshing and a breath of fresh air in a country who has lost it’s dignity thanks to the republicans. The reason she is my favorite is due to unapologetic defense of the American people. She takes a perspective from the American worker while actually representing them. Unlike the republicans who say they are for the American worker and enact policies that take way their rights, power, and pay, AOC is attacked by those same people for defending the people, the constitution, and justice. She tells it like it is. 

I don’t trust a lot of politicians, but I trust AOC. You can tell she loves the country, which makes her lovely, and she stands up for what is right and for the American people. She is a strong, capable, and intelligent and is exactly what this country needs. I would definitely support her for president and hope this song plays a small roll in getting her there. 

The most important part of the whole song is the first 8 bars of the second verse. Democrats want a living wage, housing, healthcare and childcare for American citizens. All the things that the lack of now make the average American’s life miserable. Meanwhile republicans are focused on mexican repatriation, taking rights away from trans people, and killing women from the lack of healthcare. This is so not the same thing. Look at how these parties have voted. I’m talking about the record. Democrats, although inclusionary to a fault, have consistently fought for equality, better living conditions, and workers rights while republicans have put on a facade for the American people while giving power to corporations. 

Republicans have consistently fought to take away rights, and give more and more power and money to the richest individuals and corporations. If your rich and republican,I get it. The suppression of workers rights makes you more money, which makes you a piece of shit, but I get it. Republicans wholistically represent the perspective and interests of the oligarchy, not the American people. This is how they have voted. Democrats take two steps forward and the republicans are always there to take us three steps back.

I’ll tell you what she won’t. This is because you’re stupid America and the statistics back that up. You suck at math, civic knowledge, scientific understanding. About 54% of Americans read below a 6th grade reading level. You’re a bunch of idiots, which is why you vote republican, and republicans know it. Republicans know your too stupid and uninformed to vote your self interests or differential the layers of absolute fuckery that they burden the American people with. 

Let me tell you what, you need AOC, because she is a rare example that a mother fucker like me will listen to. I love you but like an adolescent sibling, I can't stand you America, and I’m here to piss you off. Artists are a mirror to society and you piss me off daily America, so here’s the challenge. Fix it, or I’m gonna make you like barbarians you are! I don’t care about how love will fix it and all this shit. Fuck MAGA, I’m going to rub my shit in their face. 

Thanks to republicans policies I don’t have it in me to act with grace, the isolation they have forced me into due to their economic policy has cultivated vitriol for the ways they have made my life miserable. And if you’re too stupid to understand and accept that. I’m not gonna hold your hand and take you down that path. I’m going to berate you with reality, piss you off with cunning, fuck you with conditions, and blame you for not being smart and mature enough to see it. You should know better, but you don’t, cuz your stupid. Not everyone, just the majority.

I am not a friend of or afraid of the republicans, I am your worst fucking nightmare and I only wish to transfer the feeling of inferiority, inadequacy, and rage that you have forced down our throat. Trust me when I say, the republicans are so lucky to have AOC because the American people are not going to be so lovely or forgiving, which is the unintended consequence of republicans political fucker and economic policy. I’ll say it again, Republicans rather than just democrats, are so lucky to have AOC, but like conditions in America, go unrecognized because the country, as a whole, is too stupid to recognize value when you have it.

05/08/2026 “For the Honor” is my 165th official release and 237th track published. The beat is by Ryini and was produced by Keyano Beats. If you want to see me continue to release and bring you this art, I need your support! “For the Honor” is from the America 2 album which releases September 25th, but you can get it now from my wesite at https://fiense.com/america. Thank you. 

The overall sentiment of this track is how living in America is like going to war. “I can’t afford a house, I can’t afford healthcare” is a perspective from most. Most Americans can’t afford to live. So life feels like a battle where living life, whether going into work, or affording healthcare, or paying for wellness, or being able to do fun things, feels like a battle. 

It seems like the system has been purposely been set up for the average American to suffer. It’s doesn’t matter if you’re not happy, it matters if it makes money. A lot of business moguls see business as war, and they have brought that to the people by turning commodities into asset classes, keep minimum wage stagnant, and an unfair tax code. 

The truth is life in America feels like war, where you not only have to battle yourself and your employer, which is hard enough, but the system itself. When you feel “gas lit, burnt out, and drained” remember that’s intentional by the Epsitein class to prevent you from fixing the system that is only designed to serve them and make money for the wealthiest. When American’s go into battle everyday, I mean work, lets be serious about what’s going on. Their not doing it for the money, their doing it for the honor, because the economic policy doesn’t support average Americans.

In all honesty, you should be fed up, and you should be going to war with those that did this to you and the rest of the country. The founding fathers believed in economic sabotage, that’s what the whole boston tea party was about. So when someone lights a warehouse on fire and says you could have avoided this if you just paid us a living wage. Salute soldier, at least no one got hurt. But maybe it should be their mortality that’s threaten. The truth is billionaire and republican policy is waisting the lives and genius of the American people while making their existence miserable. Remember, this is all by design to make more imaginary financial success while real wealth like water, air, the atmosphere, forests, and the ocean are in crisis. To be honest, make them pay for waisting your life, wasting your time, and burdening you with their responsibilities that their to incompetent, inferior, and maliciously neglectful to be trusted with. Do it for yourself, do it for your family, to it for your people, do it, for the honor.

05/01/2026 “Cry” is my 164th official release and 236th track published. The beat is by Ryini was self-produced. This is a dig at my cosmic luves. Dig in perspective of striking an emotional cord.

Have you ever loved someone and but decided you really don’t like them? That you still love them, but you don’t like them, and would rather have them as a friend. That’s what this song is about. Going from Eros to Philia as described in The 4 types of Greek Love on the CosmicLuve.com blog. 

With Eros the love is so passionate your feelings change with theirs. So if you don’t make them or they don’t make you smile, or cry, over the way they feel about you, and you still love them, it’s probably not Eros, but Philia. It’s just like how you know if a woman likes something and has a connection to it. If she tells you she likes it, you did okay, but if it makes her cry, she’s in love.

04/24/2026 “Jewels” is my 163rd official release and 235th track published. The beat is by A100 and was self-produced. This is a cosmic luve response. For context read “Musical Cosmic Luve” on the cosmicluve.com blog. To put it succinctly, In 2020 I published the theory of how the planet, who I call Gaia, is conscious and communicates. Then I made a log of the coincidences of how Gaia influences your mind, as published in my book Cosmic Luve and cataloged on EricLeo108.blog. Now we are in a new era where I no longer think it’s Gaia using artists as vessels but my cosmic luves are responding to my work in their content. Coming full circle, this “Jewels” track is a cosmic luve response to “In The Dark” by Selena Gomez. I do a breakdown the the lyrics and coincidences in the “Musical Cosmic Luve” post. Thank you for the love Selena. Hope to hear from you again soon!

04/17/2026 “Semper” is my 162nd official release and 234th track published. The beat is by Ryini Beats and was produced by Keyano Beats. This is part of the America 2 album which is an album series about the social and economic conditions in the United States.

With the fascist regime that is currently in the White House, Trump has no respect for the law or the constitution. He has continually broken the law and even gone against court orders. Like the true criminal fellon he is Trump is giving illegal orders to the military and continues his unprecedented disregard for the rule of law and disrespect for the constitution. 

There have already been articles of impeachment brough against his cabenet members like Pete Hegseth for war crimes. Patriots, government officals, and decorated members of the military like Mark Kelly have come out and encouraged infantry men and women to stand for the constitution and remember their oath to the people.

The purpose of this song is the same and to remind, especially military memebers, of their oath to the constitution. I hope it functions as a reminder to all of why we have, respect, and revere the military with such high reguard and standards. This song is needed more than ever and I hope it serves to all Americans vigilant against this current regime and the illegal orders they pursue.

Click here to hear on Tidal or YouTube

04/10/2026 “Amy Goodman” is my 161st official release and 233nd track published. The beat is by Ryini Beats and was produced by Keyano Beats. This is part of the Mister Congeniality 2 album which is an album series about women I find inspiring.

I have been watching Amy on Democracy Now since about 2009 when I lived in Ypsilanti and I actually got to meet her once and ask her a question. I have come to value Amy and admire her. To be completely honest Democracy Now is hard core news and it’s not that it’s depressing, but the war and peace report weighs heavy on my mind and I can only do so much, so I tune out because I become overwhelmed.

The truth is that Democracy Now is premium and thorough journalism. Democracy Now often breaks the most important stories that may not get the most attention but are vital to understanding current event. They also have segments giving context to the reports by professional academics which I appreciate and should be industry standard. Instead of pundits, Democracy now contextualizes with expert academics and activists in the field. 

I think Amy is in her former years if she hasn’t already retired. If you ever read this Amy, thank you for your contribution to journalism and your exit will be justly earned but wholly unfortunate as you will be missed and revered. I hope this song can act as a small token of gratitude to your extraordinary work, consistent diligence, and extraordinary legacy. If I have a song about you contact me about getting rights over your song to profit from for free, cheers.

04/03//2026 Jane Goodall

Click here to hear on Tidal or YouTube

04/03/2026 “Jane Goodall” is my 160th official release and 232nd track published. The beat is by Ryini Beats and was produced by Keyano Beats. This is part of the Mister Congeniality 2 album which is an album series about women I find inspiring. 

I wrote this a couple weeks before Jane passed. I always found Jane to be inspiring. As a scientist I’ve always found evolution fascinating. As a psychologist I am very interested in chimps, apes, and other hominids, especially when comparing it to human behavior. 

We have a lot to learn from these creatures as we are closely related. Humans share more than 99.98% of their DNA with chimps. We did not come from monkeys. We have the same common ancestors as monkeys. Anyone who thinks scientist think we come from monkey’s is stupid and doesn’t understand the basic fundamentals of evolution. 

Evolution shapes your life every day. Gene’s selfpreservation and drive to replicate effect every decision we take in life. Unlike Jesus, Evolution is a binding law of life that effects you everyday whether you choose to believe it or not. Jane’s work reminds me of this. 

Jane was an avid environmentalist. She understood that preserving keystone species comes with protecting the environment while understanding the true costs of biodiversity loss. Jane’s work and activism is a bastion of knowledge, science, and ecology. Our problems stem from not listening to her and taking her words as holy in a world where the only real premise for god is under your feet and in the air.

03/27/2026 Isolation

Click here to hear on Tidal or YouTube

03/27/2026 “Isolation” is my 159th official release and 231st track published. The beat is by Ryini Beats and was produced by Keyano Beats. This is part of the America 2 album which is about the current economic conditions most Americans face, that comes out later this year. 

This song is supposed to be personal as well as representative of the average American. I try to stay active with friends and Clubhouse but the truth is I feel isolated. I work on my media ecosystem business all the time. In America community costs money and it is transactional. From clubs, to sports, to organizations, if you don’t have the money to spend on that connection you are isolated. The truth is, for the most part, I do my best but I don’t have money for community involvement. Besides the library and community centers it seem like everything costs money to utilize and if you don’t have the money you don’t have access. And I am cash insolvent in my business. 

Like I mentioned, more and more the average american is isolated from community and society. The conditions of money being the crux of American society and the system not providing enough of it to properly utilize the community, many Americas are becoming isolated further. Not providing Americans with enough money to live and function in society is why individuals are not coupling. The truth is building a relationship takes money to show support and affection and if you don’t have it, you abstain from that relationship. Those that are coupled are not having kids because of the economic conditions surround affordability. But not only is this bad for relationship build but Isolation is as bad as smoking in terms of health effects, studies have found. Years of corporate capture, trickle down economics, rigging the tax code, and an unfair tax code has caused real effects on individuals health and financial well-being and therefor the economy. “Isolation” is my perspective or take on this very real and downward spiral of the individual thanks to (Repbulican led) economic policy and ideological implementation.

03/20/2026 Emma Watson

Click here to hear on Tidal or YouTube

03/06/2026 “Emma Watson” is my 158th official release and 230th track published. The beat is by Ryini Beats and was produced by Keyano Beats. This is part of the Mister Congeniality album which is about women I find inspiring, that comes out on August 28th 2026. 

Ths song is inspired and a tribute to Emma Watson. I don’t really talk about it but love is why I do hip-hop. Whether it is the love of the game, the love of the craft, or to find love. Considering I don’t make enough money from my music to support myself, although I do make some, the purpose and modus operendi of my music is love. My love for the art form, community, and people are all that keeps me going. 

In the same respect, and to be specific, Emma Watson and my love for her has been a driving force to fuel the sentiment, content, and productivity. There are others, but when I first started my music journey as myself the narrative with women was flaunting hoes and calling women bitches. Although I feel it is less prevelant now than it was, I wanted to provide a different narrative. I wanted to pick one woman and basically marry her. She would be the purpose and focal point of my music and I would elevate her above the others and make her queen. The woman I chose was Emma Watson.

I can’t tell you how good of a decision it was. She remains both a prominent figure on the minds of the international community, she remains well loved, and she’s remained single; or at least keeps her sexual exploits out of the public eye. Again, because I do my music for the love, she has remained the most influential, motivating, and driving force for perpetuating my music. Check out the “Emma Watson Inspired Music” playlist on my YouTube channel.

Like a parent teasing thier children about their crush, Gaia used to rentlentlessly basically tease me about Emma giving both internal encouragement and external environemntal semantics. I have talked about the coincidences on this blog. I recently started a new blog for cosmic luve at cosmicluve.com and there is a blog post about Emma

I don’t talk about this because I don’t wanna put pressure on Emma, but I think she should know. Although I try to remain skeptical and default to it being a schizophrenic delusion, I think Gaia is real and I have a relationship with the planet. I have tried to show this the best I can about this in my 108 and Cosmic Luve books and the cosmic luve log on this blog to catalog the external semantic communication. The fact is even I’m not convinced, although I think there needs to be serious scientific inquiry as to what is causing this phenomenon. 

Whatever it is. Between the music I have created and the very real weight of the human perspective and attention, I don’t know if she’ll ever live it down. One day, even if it is in the afterlife, I will be a cultural symbol, and she’ll have to deal with the fact I made my love for her so intricate, deep, and pervasive. Branding is all about pairing and I paired with her whether she likes it or not. And that’s the thing. I want her to like it. It is genuine love and affection I have for her. I may have her pigeonhole from perspective, but she has me pigeonholded out of love. All I want is what’s best for her, even if that isn’t with me. She didn’t ask for this.

With that said, I just want to submit to her, no response is a response. Let me just say to Emma. I don’t even need to tell you why I like you, it’s written in the music. But to add, I can honestly say you bring he best outta me. There is no man that will treat you better and love you more than I do. I have invested in you and it’s one of the best investments I’ve ever maid. I would be so lucky and honored to have my love for you reciprocated. 

Although her love is desired, I have been saying goodbye. I have no idea why she’s not married yet, but of course, I would say that with my perspective on her. I can’t imagine shes alone and she probably is romantically involved with some other hot stud. As a sociologist I understand that attration is geographic and propinquity creates opportunity. I also understand that although money can not buy you love, it does facilitate it. The real problem is I live in poverty and she lives across a whole ocean. 

My goal has always been to meet her but I’ve never been able to afford to facilitate the propinquity. I can’t afford to travel, and I’m an industry outsider. So because I can’t be that man for her, and I can’t see her staying single, I want her to be happy even if it’s not with me, so I’ll probably let her go soon. Don’t get me wrong, as long as she’s single, I’m probably gonna keep trying, but if she settles down, it won’t be the same. With pretty much all my cosmic luves I stop talking about them once they get married. Jennifer Lawrence was a AFC Home era cosmic luve and no one probably even knows she was a cosmic luve because I never talk about her. Taylor Swift is like the only exception, and that’s because she’s musical cosmic luve, it’s always been tied with emma, it changed to friendship, and she’s in my business.

It’s just not fair to Emma, again, she didn’t ask for this, and I don’t want to be selfish, so I’m letting her go, which is what I told Gaia. If Emma does want to meet me under her own will I will definitely make it worth her while. I’m just hoping to make a friend, anything else is just a bonus. I wish you the best sweetie, I want whats best for you, thank you for being my bae, and a beacon for inspiration. I hope my love brings you joy. Until we meet. Yours.
