Chanel 201 Interview

1. What was your favorite track on the album?

. my favorite track on the album was definitely "i wanna end".

I loved the flows and lyrics on that song.

It was in the vault for a while and I think I did that beat justice.

A close second is either lost friends or out of pocket interlude

out of pocket had great lyrics

 

2. Do you think you upgraded lyrically or stayed the same?

I think I mostly upgraded lyrically on the album.

I think I got better at storytelling and overall rhyming in the album.

But it was supposed to be more personal lyrics on the album,

at least moreso than three-headed

But I like getting introspective almost as much as making concepts

But overall, I think there was great lyrics on the project

 

3. What's your writing process?

Well, it differs from track to track, but usually,

I find the concept or thing I want to rap about first

Then I find a good beat for it, usually just song instrumentals but not always

Then I write ideas down and make them rhyme and flow into the song

I mostly focus on verses instead of hooks in my songs

 

4. Favorite feature and why?

My favorite feature was definitely Kalligraphy's.

I think he's very lyrically talented in general and he was a go-to for getting on the album

I think he did the job well and fit the beat just as well as the lyrics did

I think Shinjuku's verse was good too, but personally, I like Kalligraphy's one just slightly better

 

5. Anything you would do different next time?

If I had more time, I would probably add more choruses and verses to the tracks. I feel like

Some of them felt too short or not fully realized.

So next project I definitely wanna make more thought out and evolved tracks

 

 

6. After this album what's your plans?

Well I don't know much. I have some collab albums in the vault that I will not be talking about right now

But for future projects, I wanna experiment more with genres and tap into different moods

I wanna push my boundaries outside of rap and test myself with every project

 

7. This is more personal but I(justice) loved "lost freinds" personally

I think it's the best On the album. Obviously I know what the inspiration was

But how do you feel about the things that are happening with Autos account now?

I think you know what I'm talking about if not I'll make a reply.

Well, first of all thank you, and second of all, lost friends was probably the second hardest track to make on the album

After the step that changed my life. I wanted to make a big tribute to not just Auto, but Twizt3d, Track King, Harry and Infinity

And all the people who helped my career. But right now, with Auto's account, I feel like they're spirits are in the right place

But the last posthumous Auto album just wasn't the same. A lot of the tracks, in my opinion, felt unfinished, with features slapped onto them

And I don't think Auto would approve of it if he was still here

Not anything against the person who's running his account, but I just don't think the best material is coming out

 

8. Finally what was your ...realization that you were an MC?

Like what did you write and as you read it you were like "I can fucking rap"

//:KO

I joined this site mostly as a joke, cuz i started freestyling in my basement after I listened to rap songs

My first songs are genuinely horrible lol but I think the first song that I really thought was good

Was probably "King Fight Pt. 2" from one of my old old mixtapes

It was a long concept song, but I think it was probably my first real best work
