Just to stay focused on my path and not the path that other people or media want to put me in. Just to stay focused on my vision, because I put out what I want people to know about me. Everything else is what the media puts out.
I’ve always been into dressing and being stylish because I feel like that’s where I gained a lot of my confidence and swag as a rapper, so fashion goes hand-in-hand with music to me.
Personal life doesn’t affect my creative process. It just gives me more subjects to talk about. Basically whatever you put in your music is how you want people to view you.
So for [Alexander Wang] to actually put me in a campaign, I was really honored. I’m excited to see how it comes out because I didn’t look at the photos on set; I like to just live in the moment and do what I do and let him and his people put their touch on it.
I am an artist who’s just tryin’ to do something different, and basically not caring about everybody’s opinions and wanting to follow what everybody else is doing. At the same time, I know when to be serious, but I know when to joke.
The media has a lot of power, and everything I do is what I want people to see, whether it’s putting out a new single, dropping a new album, doing a new movie or new collab with a designer – this is what I want people to see.
I guess with the generation we live in, we just want to be entertained at the end of the day. A lot of artists make themselves accessible, so they feel like every artist should be like that. Some artists shouldn’t be so accessible, to me.
I like comfortable clothes. Most men in the world wear T-shirts every day and jeans. I wanted to always put my street style to the high fashion looks and just make it comfortable and make it look stylish.
You’re not just making music for your personal use no more, just making music for your homies around you; you’re making music for people around the world. Kids in Alaska – like, you’re making music for everybody. When I make music, I just think on a larger scale.
I could be going through something in my life that I might not want to talk about in my music because my music is the way that I escape some of those things.
I’m happy that I’m learning and a lot of these fashion houses are willing to collaborate. I just want to put my swag to what they’re doing, because I like street style.
