Curtis Jr grew up chasing storms and snakes, but never quite felt like he belonged. The world saw him as different, and fitting in often came with a cost. Even as drinking crept into his life, music became his anchor-the one place where he could feel whole, alive, and true to himself.

In this conversation, Curtis opens up about learning to embrace the little kid he once was-the one who was made fun of for loving what he loved-and how welcoming that kid back saved him. His story is about finding identity, fighting through struggle, and letting music light the way forward.

If you've ever felt out of place, Curtis' journey will remind you: the parts of you that don't "fit in" might just be the parts that set you free.
