"Randomly hit the cords and i thought "oh shit that's a hit."." Best interview quote I've heard so far.
Honesty is so much appealing to the ones who try to sound appealing.
Duuuude he said that when I saw this comment

If you listen to it closely you could fine the meaning fast

He is absolutely right. I went to a bar recently and I just felt like I was a kid who snuck out of the house and into a bar. A bar where there is someone taking care of you, you are nursing a drink, people are stumbling around like toddlers, there are club toys, someone in the background is having a tantrum, while the guy in the corner takes a nap, there is a woman who cleans up behind you when you use the toilet. He is absolutely right, some adults just aren’t able to grow out of certain stages.
He's so self aware it makes him so likeable.
Ryre k
self aware?
I love how he is so uncomfortable
And just smiles while talking about the darkest shit.
Ikr i kinda found it cringy but i mean its not the cringy anymore now that i know what it means
*me when mom keeps scrolling*
I like ur comment now its 666 >:)
Smiling and laughing can be a nervous thing, so he was most likely nervous
Benji’s worst fear cause hes a zooner

Dog: This is fine
Exactly!
How dare you. You made me spit out my soda from laughing.

The transition from talking to singing is like reverse puberty.

Some lines: Deep meaning
Other lines: It sounded cool
Lmao true
It be like that
As a poet, that's how it goes
Bro i just think most singers it do be like that
@snoop I actually agree with that to an extent, but sometimes there are lines to fill. Like sometimes you want to leave it up to the reader/listener to interpret it, sometimes you'll have a specific meaning in mind, but there will also be times you'll think of a line that just sounds really cool so you'll add it in.

Can we talk about how when he talks he's just got this raw tone
But when he sings its just this smooth soft voice
Everybody gangsta till someone actually sings good in a genius interview
Not everyone has such a beautiful voice.
I don't think whispering should be considered as that special

Hapisky a lot of people talked about him when he was popular and gkmc better than illmatic in my opinion
I’m not gonna lie, I watched this expecting to hear some corny shit. he spoke some the realest shit I’ve heard in some time. Keeps it real, love that
Same I was like 'oh probably another edgy song' but this was actually pretty interesting to watch
I think all he said here made sense

@@rapcity5882 👆
Rap City58 Depressed doesn’t necessarily mean having depression. Depressed is an emotion that means you’re feeling down and generally sad and in a bad mood.
I joke about depression because despite how much I dont want to admit it, I have depression

OMG THIS SONG IS KIND OF DEMONIC AND I JUST MADE THE LIKES 666
Finally someone who also hates when celebs' songs get used on tik tok
EDIT - I should make it VERY clear, I've NEVER hated tiktok as a whole. I hate the specific community that dances to songs. It is unoriginal to me and really not unique. Tiktok has some extremely good videos, and bad videos.
I would also like to point out, some artists with songs used on tiktok probably wouldnt have wanted some random teens to be the reason they got big, and segueing from that, a LOT of artists of the songs are already big. So dont use that excuse.
Edit 2 - not to mention, but really shitty things come out of tiktok, one challenge got some teens killed, another got a woman sick because she fucking licked a toilet seat. This is a bad look. And remember, some of this is coming from a cringey dance community.

he doesnt sing properly. its literally devoid of time. its like he's whispering to make up for lack of pitch control. honestly one of the grossest things ive ever heard
I've never met anyone as relatable as him.
To everything he said, I was nodding my vigorously.
When I first heard the song I was getting a "the seven deadly sins" vibe even though I didn't get them all.
Lust: " I love everything"
Gluttony: "Why won't you let me eat my weight in glee"- "Somedays I feel skinnier than all the other kids And some days I can't tell if my body belongs to me"
Wrath: "Cross out the ones who held my cries and watched me weep"
Sloth: " Just wanna be care free lately Just kicking up dirt"- "Might as well just run around the nursery and count sheep"
Envy: " I wanna taste your content"
Let me know if you can pick out a pride and greed verse because it would be cool if the song was based off this.
I like this and idky I thought this could work for greed maybe ↓↓↓
"I wanna taste consumption breathe faster to waste oxygen"
I though the same, but the line "I love everything" took my mind to Estarossa/Mael
