The idea of protector, the album, to me, is sort of about. Caring and love. So the message is that everyone is a protector, and should strive to be, and to protect the people they care about and be protected in turn...
I think we all assembled by sheer proximity, the sheer desire to partake in a lot of substances, needing one core activity to tie us all together...
things often kinda vaguely float in my head still, so it's hard to promise anything...
BIG UP MENACE X stands for "beautifully uplifting minds unknowingly" So that is a necessary measure I tend to take every second uplifting thyself to reflect with the select few who get it
I figured it would look really cool since it was mixing something deadly as an RPG-7 with something cute like our puppies...
This was one of Lil Tjay's first performances following his recovery from being shot seven times in an attempted robbery & his live show didn't disappoint...
Ugly Mane is a catch-all for whatever creative drainage leaks out of me. I think it's a dumb name that makes most people immediately write me off and not investigate what I do purely based on the preconception of how dumb the name is. I like that...

The most common critique people will say is 'I can't meditate,' even though they are. They are so caught up in their own egoic construct they will refuse to entertain ideas that lay below the surface...
CKay's 2019 release titled, 'Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ahh)' was the first African song in history to surpass 1 billion streams on Spotify and the track garnered a billion combined views in a single day on TikTok...
I am influenced by EDM because that’s the music that got me into producing as a kid, but as a fan I don’t really listen to EDM unless it’s a bit left field or weird or something. It’s just my taste...
Live Nation told me Daniel's first three songs of the set would be performed under a massive curtain. I knew this would be interesting...
