Do You Think Em Listens To His Own Music??

[Pllumi]

Well of course. But I doubt he puts himself on in his car or ipod when walking around or running.

He listens to himself all the time, constantly playing tracks back for perfection but the fact he said that he went back and listened to SSEP and SSLP and MMLP etc. indicates to me that the last time he heard them properly was when he made them. Since he 'went back'.

I'm sure when he makes new material, even after it's perfected he gives it a few spins and entertains himself but when you create something you're there from start to finish creating it so by the time he finishes a song, he's probably already heard it 100 times.

So I doubt there's a desire to keep playing it, it feels old to him by the time it feels new to us.

Also, when it's YOU, it's often not as entertaining or good to you as it is to others. If you make a movie with actors and dialogue etc. it's an external creation so that's different. But this is all him, his voice, his thoughts, he created it and it's HIM lmao so it probably doesn't feel as exciting to hear himself as it does for us to hear him.

I know because I'm a good card magician and when I used to make videos and spend hours perfecting the performance... It'd look good to me but never amazing. Well obviously the trick itself wouldn't look as amazing because I know how I'm doing it but even the finished performance, well that probably is to do with being a perfectionist as other people would tell me it's perfect but I could still see 100 flaws. But people comment all the time still like "WOW HOLY SHIT" and I just find it odd because it doesn't induce even close to that reaction from watching myself.

So it's kind of odd. I bet he feels the same. I'm sure he's very proud of his music when he makes it but I bet when somebody is like "FUCK ME THAT'S GENIUS" he knows why they're saying that but can't fully appreciate their perspective or passion for it, because... It's him. You know.

exactly this

Could not have set it better myself.
