Yo almost forgot Im playing a show in @lonesomelacowboy tn! Come out and here some good ole music maneee @silverlakelounge (at Silverlake lounge) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8AQvzPApEf/?igshid=1emm1inpg6w5r

The story: Tbh I was nervous to put out this tape. Not because I didn’t like the compositions or anything but because I know my music is different. Sharing that “otherness” is scary for me at times, but it’s there I find who God has made me to be and others who feel “other” too ❤️🙏🏽 Grateful to have been used to make this and grateful to be getting better every day. CHECK OUT #Emmanuel on SoundCloud and please leave a comment on your thoughts or how you share your “otherness”. God bless, Ian https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Y9eUXg6fU/?igshid=nmt7p81a1xg2

Throwback to last week when i met the OG @elaquent at NAMM. Truly a blessing to see the man rock it and to chop it up a bit. Pray we can share the stage in Canada soon. S/o @roland_us #supercard and @nasrockswell for making it happen https://www.instagram.com/p/BtZwI1Jlrav/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q1qd1fz3bj6p

NAMM was a huge blessing and success. Thank God for this opportunity. Met so many dope musicians and got to connect with homies. ‘Twas awesome ❤️🙏🏽✊🏽😇 (at Anaheim Convention Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtKO0OUFN63/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1btyu5oat6lsk

Man forreal this year has been such a blessing. Growing in authenticity w/ Christ (out of self righteousness lol). Growing as a husband (becoming a leader and unconditional lover). As a man (taking a stand for who God has made me to be). And as an artist/ musician . . Doing shows with some of my favorite #producers and meeting my #inspirations. Put out my first #album #ForThoseILove . Put out 2 music videos. And overall just going for my goals. I pretty much hit all my goals for the year and that’s been awesome to see God’s handiwork in my life (especially musically) . Thank you all for sharing this life w/ me and supporting me in any way shape or form. I love you and let’s get it for the next year forreal. God bless. 🙏🏽❤️😊 https://www.instagram.com/p/BsFENxHlm8i/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1skhekqe2jnq3
