It can be said that he is another artist who is talented in all areas. The famous rapper “URBOY TJ, or Tao-Jirayut Phaloprakarn,” recently opened up to tell the story of his childhood. Revealing the secrets in my heart that are introverted and have walls. Because in the past, he had experienced severe bullying. Now, at the age of 31, he still doesn’t long for love. I want to live a happy life without caring about anyone. Wear a towel skirt and go on stage because we are happy. I dream of having a solo concert for the first time in my life on Woody FM.
At this point, at the age of 31, what were you born for? Do you have an answer for today?
URBOYTJ : I was born to have fun for now. I feel like I want to be happy right now. I live my life without stress. I got to do what I liked and wanted to do. Anything that I’ve ever dreamed of doing since I was a child, when I’m 30, I have the opportunity to do it. I’m happy.
Was all of this as you thought?
URBOYTJ : Well, it’s not always what you think. But it’s close to what I want to be: writing songs, singing, and living life.
What are you happiest at the moment?
URBOYTJ : If you don’t count music, It must be friends, because when I was a kid, I didn’t have any friends. That is, other people might say that the older I get, the fewer friends I have, and society becomes narrower. But for me, it turns out that the older I get, the more we feel, the more we want to open. Want to meet new people? Want to go learn new cultures? So it became more open to my own world.
Are we able to connect with people more easily now?
URBOYTJ: Yes, if it were before, I wouldn’t talk to anyone at all, asking for answers, but now there’s starting to be contact. Starting to be asked back
What event made you start to have walls?
URBOYTJ : Actually, when I was in high school. I was always bullied in school. Because I am a person who is different from other people. I study in another province, to be honest. That is, it is a rather remote province, far from many things. Even when I ironed school shirts to go to school, they still bullied me and said, “Why are you ironing school shirts?” He hasn’t seen Reed at all. At that time, I felt why And then there were many events that happened. The people around us are like crazy people. He held a knife to his throat in school. Like, I don’t like you. You shouldn’t be here. When I was in high school 1-2, this matter was never discussed with anyone. I never told anyone.
So what made you start to withdraw?
URBOYTJ : After that, I started moving towards things that I could do on my own. That is, not having to depend on others is making music. Expressed in the song At that time, during Mathayom 2–3, it was very underground music. That’s pretty rude. What expresses feelings things that we feel?.
Can you remember any event that made a lasting impression on your mind when you were a child?
URBOYTJ : That event. is in the classroom. Sit and study together with many people. After that, an older child walked into the room, just like in the movies. Then he came and hugged his neck and held a cutter knife. And then I came and tried to play something like this. And everyone doesn’t care. Everyone turned away. Pretend you don’t see, but now it’s okay. It passed like this.
Have you told your parents?
URBOYTJ: I didn’t tell him because I didn’t want him to feel like I couldn’t live my life here. He will move me to another place. I don’t want to have any problems. I think it might last. There should be something we can do. It should be OK.
I want to ask, why do parents have to move?
URBOYTJ : Because my parents separated and divorced, and my parents are people who move a lot in their lives. My mother often goes to work abroad. Then they would often move me to live with relatives. I will change places to study often. So it makes me unable to socialize easily.
I’ve never seen Tao talk about love. What was your first love like?
URBOYTJ : When I was in elementary school, I liked a friend. It’s like a cute puppy love, around grades 3 – 4. I like someone. If I can remember their name, I really want to tell them. But I don’t remember. He is a good student. and is a person who is a good student in the classroom. He’s a charming person that everyone likes. I like him. It’s my first love in life.
And at what age did you really start having a girlfriend?
URBOYTJ : Probably around the age of graduating from university. At that time, just trying to find things. I’ve never been in love before, never had a boyfriend. Some people might have had boyfriends since high school or something like that. But really love My so-called girlfriend happened very slowly in life for me. I feel like it’s slow. So I felt like I wanted to find out what it was. what is love Trying to live life Do what normal people do. Go travel or do things. But in the end it didn’t come out very well. We parted ways.
Cut to this age and the relationship. Of course, it must not be like the old days. But how much importance did you give to it before? What does it add to your life?
URBOYTJ : I feel like it’s not very important in my life. Because I don’t yearn for it. I’m not longing for much. Because life in the present is already chaotic. There are a lot of things going on in my head. So I don’t want to find anything to make it more complicated. So I rarely talk about love or that there is love. Some people may think that having someone come into their lives may be fulfilling. Help lead each other to a better place. But for me, I think I want myself to have stability first. to bring someone to live with
Everyone probably expected that if we sat down and talked, there would be some benefit to the issue of mental health. I’d like to say that it’s a habit that we’ve accumulated for a long time. So try to find a way. Find the little joys in life and have hope that you can change?
URBOYTJ : Right now, I feel like it’s all up to me. Just our thoughts. When I was 30, it was like I could let go of things. I understand that people One is born with someone who loves him. There must be people who hate him. We can’t make the whole world love us. So when we make music or do anything, There must be a comment that says I don’t like this, I don’t like you, I hate you that kind of thing. I tend to be interested in people who are interested in me. He only loves us, and it makes life more fun. And then I felt like I wanted to live life more.
The fact that we care what other people think It is something that everyone does automatically without realizing it. And then it covers life. Especially when we have social media, just read the comments, and we will keep them.
URBOYTJ : Yes, it’s been a long time coming. At first, when I couldn’t deal with it, there were like 100 comments, 99 of them saying they were all good but 1 saying I didn’t like it. We will focus on that one and say why. And then try to find the answer. And I lived with it for weeks and months until now. I feel like, OK, I don’t care; I don’t care about this anymore. We’re more interested in the 99 things that he’s doing with us. Recently, I told you about an incident where I wore a Balenciaga towel to a concert. And of course, there must be someone commenting, What’s wrong with you? Buying a towel for $30,000 and wearing it looks like a stupid way to dress. And then I learned from this that, OK, everything happens. And I don’t care how people think. And we are happy that we did just that. I just do it because I want to. It’s really very good. In the past, we may have felt that not caring was a bad thing. It might be an idea that someone put in for us. But now that I know that it’s good, it’s really good.
After this, I want to know what your dreams are?
URBOYTJ : I would like to have a solo concert. A concert that was like our own, and people bought tickets to come see us. In the past, I didn’t dare. I felt like no one wanted to come. There must be no one watching. But once in a lifetime, it’s a life goal. By the time I’m 30, I have to do it.
