So you might lose it for that moment, but in the bigger picture, you have to project yourself as yourself. For example, if I have to choose between doing say a run-of-the-mill song and play it safe or choose an in-your-face kind of song where I’m being crazy. I’ll choose the second option because even if I fail at least I did what is me instead of doing something which is boring.”
