A fun fact people may or may not know, but the end of the song is both he and I harmonizing singing good night, which was definitely My Chemical Romance’s inspired as far as their outros and intros and just song arrangement is really inspiring. I feel like there was a lot of that in our song just as fans and you know, wanting to give our generation some of that same feeling that we had. And we’d be like, what a weird concept. And it’s funny cause at the beginning of the album it’s me confronting all these problems. And then at the end of the album it’s me saying, “Hey, I think I’m okay. But you never have that period on the end of it. It’s just a dot, dot, dot. Because you think you’re okay.

Saying, “I hurt myself sometimes, is that too scary for you?” it’s like breaking the bubble that is the non-reality of Los Angeles. Or Hollywood, I should say. Not really LA. I guess Hollywood more so. But yeah, it’s more so just like walking in the middle of Beverly Hills in a robe with a fucking knife and just being like, we bleed. None of you are gods.

This song was really a lot about living in Los Angeles. You know what I mean? The city of angels, which is obviously a fucking joke, you know what I mean? Like it’s the city of demons, dude. The hills have eyes like everyone talks, everyone knows everyone’s business. Everyone is interested in all these other lives, but their own. It’s really just a reflection of living in Hollywood. Like there’s so many people interested in your life and your business and just everything travels around.

I don’t think it just means what people think it means. I think a lot of people think it just immediately means it’s suicide or I think it’s really just like I can take back my life. You know? I can make my decisions. That’s one thing I would like to clear up. Everyone thinks that means suicide. This was like saying take your destiny into your own hands, Manifest what you want and make your life yours. So misconception cleared up.

You ever really like somebody and you do something and ruin it and then they just ghost you? That’s the silence right there.

I am absolutely an infamous drunk, phone caller. For sure crossing the line. Calling who I shouldn’t be calling and saying things that are completely out of pocket.

When I was recording Hotel Diablo, I couldn’t tell you 75% of the people that came through the studio’s names. That place was like open doors for the entire city of Los Angeles. It was so dark and I was just on a four-day bender and realized, “Eww, who are these people? Why am I wasting all these time with people I don’t like?” And that’s a lyric.

The guitar riffs playing and there’s all these girls making drinks and things like that. And I freestyle this line where I’m like, “Watch me. Take a good thing and fuck it all up in one night.” And I’ll never forget all the girls looked at each other like, “Ah, fucking mood.” And that was the confirmation for me that we’re running with that as the first line. Every time I sit here, that first line play for someone that hasn’t heard the song and they’re always like, “Oh. Me last night.” Or like whatever. It’s just funny.

Some people, when they wake up they need a cup of coffee. Me, when I go into the studio I need to crack an Addy and open my mind up and lose all my worries from everything going on in the real world.

The studio is supposed to be for art only. I like to get a little mad and let my pen work. That’s just the way I’ve done it since I’ve done it, but yeah covering up a low with a high.

His verse on “Trap Paris” is like the coldest Quavo verse. Because with the ad lib swag that he had on there, too, but when he bust into that like, “Bitch I made it from the trap,” the way he says it, I swear to God I do Jesus arms every time. You know what Jesus Christ arms are? He’s like floating on the water. The whole time we were writing the music video treatment, I was like “OK is there any way Quavo could just float on water while he says this line?” The director was like, “Yeah, absolutely not.” But, it just sounds like he should be floating on water when he says it.
