HENRICK vs. AARON TOWNS
I know over the course of this past year the biggest question has been my name! Everyone always ask me, Aaron did you change your name, if so why? First off, let me be the first one to tell you “Henrick” has always been my name only family and friends knew this part of me. The world only knew Aaron Towns. Though, as I’m becoming more vulnerable with my music and wanting to give all my fans all of me. I wanted to let you guys in on my life. Now don’t think of it as a name where that’s the only thing you call me. No, my name is still Aaron, though i want to you think of “HENRICK” as Bruce Wayne’s “Batman”, or Clark Kent’s “Superman” . When i step on that stage you get Henrick! Also, i know everyone pronounces it wrong and that’s ok. Honestly that was the point. I wanted to make it a point to correct the ones who couldn’t pronounce the way i do. THE “H” is silent! Of course, it looks like “Hendrix” so first off you get that familiarity, which too me is a great thing. You pronounce it wrong then you get the hang of how to say it right means there’s another reason you want forget it! Then when you finally understand how to say it, it’s now stuck with you forever! I wanted it this way! Honestly, to me the people who or know, know. An the people who want to know will know as well! That’s the cool part, makes you feel as if you’re on the in. You’re apart of the club house!
