Hey do you wanna be my agent ? Right now it don't mean much but you'd be able to help me make it mean something for both our families. l have the high quality work but it takes a lot of time to do agent stuff and l'm not good at balancing it with laying down my track and making my work simultaneously. If I was focused on one job solely And my agent was doing agent stuff then it would all blow up faster and bigger and in a controlled explosion
