In the front half of 2020, Robinson released "Get Your Wish" and "Something Comforting" as the first two singles from his sophomore solo album, 2021's Nurture. He kept up his typically busy schedule for the remainder of the year, launching his own curated festival called Second Skye Music Festival in Oakland and touring both as Virtual Self and under his own name. Proving to be nearly as popular as his eponymous work, Robinson toured as Virtual Self throughout 2018, hitting major festivals like Bonnaroo and Ultra Music Festival and earning a Best Dance Recording nomination for "Ghost Voices" at the 2019 Grammy Awards. A succession of singles, including "Ghost Voices," appeared in advance of a self-titled EP, with the project's live debut occurring that December. Near the end of 2017, Robinson debuted a brand-new project called Virtual Self. You cant ask for a more true artist than that." Recently a comment on said, "Porter is an honest and brilliant artist that isn't ashamed to let you into who he is through his music. I definitely recommend going to see Porter Robinson's Worlds Tour but don't expect a rave or anything like the sort." It was, for lack of a better phrase, a spiritual experience. The music and visuals were uplifting and euphoric to the point where you couldn't help but connect with everyone around you. In the music but moreso by the visuals, it was easy to pickup on Porter's influences from JPop(Japanese Pop) and his voyages to and through Japan.

The music was great but it was all the greater because the screen on the back seemed to tell a story it was a movie that meshed perfectly with the music. It felt much less 1-dimensional than other shows/sets that I've been to where the primary focus is more on the music. This show was nothing short of revolutionary. A true masterpiece, Nurture is an eloquently produced body of work that conveys a sense of contentment and newly-found inner peace."To get past the auditory experience of the show, the visuals were INTENSE. The album has already received high praise from fans & media alike, solidifying Robinson as a dynamic artist whose work reflects the ever-evolving human behind the name.
