Yes I do know that I spelled instrumental wrong. I made this for a friend who sang YouTube covers back in high school one day that I was bored. I did not expect to farm 30 mil views from this, but hey that’s cool. I play a lot of Valorant and am in the process of teaching myself music production so stay tuned for content of that sort, much love friends! I’m mostly present on here, but give my Twitch a follow if you’d like to see me there! https://www.twitch.tv/McCraigerson
