DARREN CRISSGuys I’m kind of nutty, but you have to understand that that’s all just me being myself.
DARREN CRISSI just hope I can continue to do work that matters to me, I’m not interested in being any kind of superstar or anything I’m not. I’m just a dude who got lucky and an artist who cares about the work that I do.
