I\u2019d just signed with Giant Music, and I was still figuring out who I wanted to be as an artist,\u201d he shared on Instagram. \u201cBut the process of writing this record- finding my closest collaborators, writing and rewriting over 200 songs, chasing ideas that felt more honest and real to me than ever\u2026 it pushed me to drop my guard and say what I actually mean.
