Leggy - Interview

1) What got you into rapping?
I got into rapping as a little kid, i watched alot of my family members do this before i even started, and now i feel like its my turn since i learned from all of them.

2) Who are some of the people who inspired you and made you what you are today?
Of course Jay-Z was my main inspiration, but my favorite rappers include Lupe Fiasco, Young Chris, and The
Clipse.

3) What do you bring to hip-hop?
I think i bring refreshment to the rap game, something that true hip-hop fans haven't heard in a while. At the same time I also bring the definition of mainstream, so its pretty much a two-headed coin with me.

4) How do you feel about the current state of hip-hop?
I feel like hip-hop is in dying need of originality, since corporate America is so worried bout keeping things the same so they can make profit of off it. But, I also think that hip-hop is going to handle itself, because whether corporate America likes it or not hip-hop is going back to the origins, because when things get stale in hip-hop it refreshes itself by going the complete opposite direction of what its been doing.

5)What made you write the song "High School Sweetheart"?
I wrote the song "High School Sweetheart" off of true life experiences. Like me and my literally "High School Sweetheart" broke up, and I just wrote the song as I was tryna get over the breakup. So its as authentic as you can get lol.

6) If you could make a track with an rapper dead or alive who would it be?
If I could make a track with a rapper, I would have to select Lupe Fiasco. Cuz everything I hear or see from his is original, I don't know him to have ever bit off of any other rapper in any form, way, or how. And his flow and wordplays rediculous lol.

7) Any new "Projects" you are working on?
In the future, Ya'll can look forward to my debut self-titled album "LEGGY" it's really what the game's been waiting for.

8) Anything ells you wanna say? Shoutout?
