Ive always been a fan of K-pop because of the performance aspect, he told us.
Ill be completely honest, I am so over lazy artists and the world is full of these non-performers and its a little sickening to me as Im a huge fan of performers who can take the stage and light the stage on fire.

I think its so few and far between. People dont seem to care and that gets on my nerves.
When asked how long hed been loving the Korean music scene, he added: I first go introduced to K-Pop about nine/10 years ago when my career first started when I went over to Korea and I got experience it first hand.
And ever since in terms of fashion, in terms of performance, it was super next level. Its not nearly the lazy mentality that most artists have. And Im so glad it has a world stage now. Thats so dope.
And then the big question – is he working with any K-Pop artists? At this question he got excited but couldnt say much.
Um…I am actually in the process of doing something. I cant tell you what, he told us.

I wanted to talk about unity and togetherness, he explained of the track.
