On creating content Awez says, “When I create content, I create it with the perspective of putting myself in my audience's shoes.

I always think to myself, is this a genre or a kind of video that I would enjoy as a viewer? If it resonates with me, I make it happen for my audiences as well. I think that is the key to making good content.” When asked where he takes inspiration from for creating videos, he says, “My videos are mostly inspired from things I see happening around me every day. I believe there is a lot of inspiration we can find if we just pay attention to the everyday madness in life!”.
