Michael Poggioli is a perfect example of why I believe the majority of the world’s greatness is still hiding beneath unturned stones. For every current artist we put on a pedestal, there is a humble genius shelling out diamonds from some nondescript home studio. Michael, as well as his brother in Skate Stance, is a 10/10 singer, 10/10 songwriter, and 10/10 producer, and still we've yet to see his name shouted across the industry grapevine. It's songs like this that remind me our current culture industry architecture is a facade, and TRD (the real deal) can be found both at the Grammy's or in the Garage.
Rehearsing
My habits
I picked them up while from a far
Pushing limits
New methods
Going too fast I crashed my car
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
Flow charting
Every issue
Trying to find the clearest path
Back at it
Alligator
Figured I’d get a little buzz
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
Let’s try it
New family
Let’s set it up see what it’s like
Just pretend
We can quit whenever
Sometimes that’s all you even need
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
Again
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
