Amidst all the internal and external babble we experience daily, it's hard to find one's foundation.
I was pretty scared of the idea as a younger person of being a musician on the road. It didn't occur to me as a possibility.
David Bowie - I definitely knew some of his music as a teenager, but I didn't actually listen to his music as much until I was in my 20s.
'Have You in My Wilderness,' the title track, is about the idea of possessing a person, or saying, 'You're mine; you're in my world now.' I was drawn to that as an idea less from my own experience than from listening to music written by men that was kind of male gaze-y.

I honed my craft in the military, because it's the only thing that got me through it, to be honest. Working on music - being able to come home and work on music whenever I got off - was essential. If I didn't have that, I probably would've lost my mind.
One consistent good thing I can say about the music industry is that at least I can make music freely now, and I don't have to do it when I'm off of a nine to five shift or something.
I enjoy making music more than anything in the world. It's the only thing that it's felt the same since I was like 15.
The only real thing I took away from the military is that it just reinforced all the things I already thought about the underbelly of America, like how racist it is. So, it didn't really affect my music literally, but it affected the way I work on it.
When I take from my influences, it's rare that I do it literally.
I was born in 1989. I literally watched 'Rocko's Modern Life' on live television.
Rick Rubin is interesting. He doesn't wear shoes, I think? No wait, he wears shoes.
I love soundtracks. I used to have three iPod classics: one with regular music, one with soundtracks, and one with demos on it.
I like for things to be judged fairly.
Baltimore's just like, it's like being in prison but being on the yard the whole day.
I'm an artist but I'm also a real person. I have bills like everyone else.
I see lots of people online making fun of me cause at my shows there's a bunch of white people.
Whoever likes my music, I'm gonna reciprocate that same love back to them. I'm not trying to alienate anybody.
