Please introduce yourself and tell us about your latest release:
I go by the name Old Man Brandon which was actually a joke that was made by my girlfriend. I thought it had a cool ring to it plus it sounded like a name that would help keep me humble. Most who have been following me or my music know I have Mental Illness. I have listed all the diagnoses many times before and it’s all over my music so I’ll spare you all the endless details. Supporters, family, and friends also know I used to go by a different artist name before I gave my life to God.
What is the inspiration behind your music?
I’m in such a weird place artistically right now… I guess I’m always in a weird place but- Anyway. My moods and sleep are off all the time but this year It was just, Well… I don’t know how to describe it really? I guess I just dumped it all in these projects. It really came through on this Trash Trilogy. I don’t say that in a boastful way either. There were mistakes, there was TMI, falling short, giving up, and there was just this feeling from the beginning when I was writing that none of this would matter in the end. Although I was venting and using this as therapy and my outlet, I just felt like I would be gone one day and my music wouldn’t matter anymore. Maybe that’s how the TRASH theme came into play. Even right now I feel like an idiot. I’m not the boastful rapper full of ego and pride I was years ago. I’m just a guy who had a mental breakdown and never fully recovered.
I use my music as my outlet now and a way to share my walk and faith. I just don’t have it in me to sit here and write like I’m some huge undiscovered superstar, BUT!!! That doesn’t mean I don’t think I am special or unique. Look, Having a breakdown, Not being able to remember things, even my own songs, all this mental illness crap has been a blessing! It may not seem like it to others in the world but believe me, it is. Give my albums “Beautiful Trash” and “Garbage Mansion” a try.
