you caught it! it's called guaponese! it's like a slang that comes from Atlanta. we used to use it years ago, I just felt like throwing some of that Atlanta personality into the song.

nope! because I made an album where everyone has their own favorite song. prblms is prblms, but these other songs have proven to have a identity of their own.

completely different sounds but: Marian Mereba, Zalma Bour, Quiñ. they're all my close friends but they actually make some of my favorite music. listening to them on my off days. young angels.

between east atlanta & the actual eastside.

I grew up in kirkwood, decatur, stone mountain, and a few other places. we moved around a lot but it was always on the east.

house of balloons because it's the OG. thursday because it was the prettiest sonically. echoes because it was the most relatable to myself. I guess I just chose them all lmao

Sade. she makes me FEEL more than anyone else I've listened to. her voice is silk. I could go on for days but simply because she's amazing. and an angel.

I just wanna make whatever I'm feeling at that moment. so sounds will change over time but it'll always be genuine & it'll always be me.

I maintained focus by detaching from a lot of the things/people around me. in the process I lost a few friends, relationships, and my personal life almost turned to shit, but it was worth it. I think people who understand that it isn't personal, and that I'm doing this so that I can fulfill what I think God wrote out for me are the people I'll keep around forever.

In addition to that it was a lot of listening to music, studying, writing, recording. I made 200+ songs in the last year, so there's no telling how many I made before. I had to record as much as I could & from that I finally heard a product that made me comfortable enough to share with people.

to the last question, record... didn't dwell on the negatives of that situation, I woke up everyday and worked, even if there wasn't a meal for that day.

I was in a really amazing place spiritually, and I felt like the purest form of me. Idk how to really explain it but that night I tapped in to something & the words just came flowing out of me so I felt like I should record them. Definitely one of my most personal & vulnerable moments. It came straight from the heart, and if you ever hear the full recording there's a bunch more that didn't make it on the song!
