My goal is to get everyone to rock with me and actually listen to good music. I try to have something for every type of person to vibe to.” Star UTG offers this advice for those new to the music industry or those struggling to find their niche. “For everyone that's new to the game or kind of struggling, just stay focused and dedicated. Don't worry about people disliking your songs. As long as you like them. They could be jealous or try to take you off your game. Don't worry about them, it’s all about you”
