Ski Mask the Slump God

I want to make theme-setting music, music that sets a theme without being cliche.

Timbaland is my favorite producer.

I been seeing other people work with Belaire like DJ Khaled, Rick Ross, and stuff like that. But other than that, I just wanted to work with them because they showed me mad love and were genuine when we were locking in the deal. For me, it had to make sense and be genuine, and this partnership definitely felt that way.

I'm gonna keep Very Rare as a street brand. I wanna make a new clothing brand and group. It's gonna be more... high fashion.

I have 'Very Rare' tatted on my face.

'Faucet Failure' was my favorite because I just had fun with it, and it was just 10 minutes, and I didn't overthink anything, and I wanted to just have fun with the song.

I used to really like Method Man and Redman for some reason. And Fabolous. A lot of New York rappers, too. Cam'ron. Jim Jones. Hurricane Chris.

The song that's mostly changing my career or made the biggest impact on my career would be 'Catch Me Outside.' Mainly because it hit YouTube, and that was, like, my first-ever video, so people never really seen what I looked like or knew exactly what I was about, so that was, like, the first taste of what they got.

There's really nobody who taught me how to dress.

Adapt to yourself, bro. What I wanna say is don't let nobody tell you that you should stay in your lane, bro.

At the time me and X met, we weren't homeless, but we were basically homeless.

Music changed my life in so many ways.

I know I do swag rap also, but I also take it seriously. It's like 50-50.

For me to work with someone, I have to know who I'm working with so I can learn how to deal with each other and try to help each other. At the end of the day, it really just comes down to building a genuine relationship. I think that's a very important factor in business.

I don't want to ever be categorized. I want to be able to hit every genre.

Every time before I go on stage, I'm nervous.

You have to be strong for people when you don't wanna be strong. You have to be clean-showered, clean, clean-cut for people. You have to set an example.

I've always wanted to make that change from a rapper into an artist.

I like to just make flex music. So when I do make emotional music, it's hard for me, because I feel like I'm cliche. But I guess cliche is the best thing sometimes, because it's real.

If you see somebody dressing like me, you know they're purposely trying to dress like me because I dress like nothing.

I have a song called 'Young Voorhees,' because I like to call myself the new Jason Voorhees, and it samples 'Courage the Cowardly Dog.'

I hate anything that seems like something that has been done.

There's always a ying-yang in life. With everybody. There's evil in all of us. It's just about how you balance out the evil and the good and having faith in yourself and how you carry yourself.

A lot of us have energy that we can tap into. We sell ourselves short.

One thing that I do want to say is Drake, as an artist, anybody has to respect him. He's in the game, and he's been in the game - he has longevity, even if he doesn't write or writes his music.
