judith and I joined up for this shoot a few days after my bay area return. I was exhausted, I didn't know how packed I made my schedule that week. hell, I'm barely posting this now on 7/10/25 when she and I did this shoot on 6/17/25!
I won't divulge specific details on my journey over there because I don't know which geoguessr is trying to doxx us—I will say that it was kind of a bitch for someone that takes the metro and his own two feet to shoots. was I out of breath? yes. was I profusely sweating and needing to wipe my forehead down? yes. was I slowly starting to feel the effects of UV overexposure? yes. was it worth it? yes.
in the lead up to the shoot, I was telling all my friends about this latina musician that stumbled onto my instagram algorithm whose mgmt actually fucking messaged back—like holy shit do you have any idea how often going through mgmt leads to a dead end? not 100% anymore babyyyyyyy. shoutout team judith. and of course shoutout judith herself. my friends appreciated the music of hers that I shared. I will always try to put people on.


do you know what sucks? I forgot her cat's name. that absolute sweetheart, cuddly man. that gorgeous baby boy. the furball that is whatever his name is.
what I won't forget is her room. the countless memories put up on the walls and around the place. the endless kirbys—legit, I lost track of all the kirbys in the room. I love kirby so I didn't mind. they were my main in smash bros. brawl when my high school friends would make me get the wii-mote and nunchuck while they had the gamecube controllers. but jokes on them since I could just lay back with my hands at my sides spamming down+b.

my time with judith was special. two latino artists sharing the same space for a couple hours, documenting the beauty of who were in this fucked up year. with shit hitting the fan towards our people, you cherish moments like those spent together. I don't know how things are gonna keep progressing but I've realized (a little late) that all we truly have is one another.
always gonna root for judith. in music, in life. mi gente fr.
