Really just trying to execute for the people around me.”Įlsewhere in the interview, he spoke about how Nothing Was the Same is his favorite album of his own albums. “So sometimes you have to revisit some of the projects and realize how well they were- The reason why Nothing Was the Same is my favorite album is because of the fact that it was probably my most concise album.

We’re still in the moment, you know? I have trouble defining what a classic is anymore.
