Part 1: Valee on Being Born in Chicago's Robert Taylor Homes, Once America's Largest Project
--------
Valee reflected on the various projects he’s completed and the story behind his uniquely formatted releases. He confessed that, at first, he did not view music as a career but as the only thing there was for him to do other than working with cars. The interview also touched upon his experience of initially merging his creative output with labels. Specifically, Valee shared his appreciation for GOOD Music, expressing how the arrangement gave him a unique space to contribute his "own art." The platform reportedly allowed him to avoid the potential pitfalls of a larger, potentially competitive label setting. Valee also explored some unexpected inroads to popularity, such as a viral moment when he performed on stage with his pet dog in his backpack. This momentary lapse of memory, Valee claims, only added to his legacy of carefree and 'happy accidents.'
