He felt the desire to experience that again.

He told fans, “When I was working on this album I had the desire to go feel that feeling again, and that’s what I’m about to do.” He invited fans to come out and show support. “Cop a CD from me or just show love. I truly appreciate all the love and the reaction to the music.” he continued. This personal touch resonates deeply with his fanbase. It adds another layer to the anticipation for The Fall-Off.
