[2016] It [the music industry] encourages ... drinking and partying. You don't have to pay for alcohol ever, it's always free. You get given anything you want, really. Especially when you get to a certain level. Everything is there for taking, so why not? You're so used to being poor, scraping by, and the second you get free stuff, you take it all. The unfortunate thing is that mental illness and creativity seem to go hand in hand. So many of my musician friends have depression and anxiety - it's getting talked about more, but there's no support network.
