On some of your other albums, you play the trope of the antagonist a lot. In regards to bands, The Casualties, South Central Riot Squad, and the P.I.N.S. I never really dressed super emo, I used to go to the thrift a lot. If you did what did that look like and what were/are your favorite bands? I think I have so much of that music, the “emo music,” that if those fans don’t like this they can always go back to that.īecause of your roots, I'm assuming you went through a hardcore emo phase. I think I’m ready for a new sound and don’t really give a fuck what people think.

I don’t know, I think it will have some of those emo roots but a more free sound. Well, I made this song a year ago so the whole album will be completely different but it does have some similarities. Is this the sound that we might be hearing for the whole album of DT2?
This is very different than your regular sound and kinda stray aways from your emo roots. What video game or anime would you think "Bonjour" best fits in with? It kind of feels like you are scoring the sound of a video game or anime. But, this song is traveling to a world of, like freedom. Well, I actually made this song about a year ago so it’s not my current frame of mind. Where are you traveling to with this song? Very astrological and other-worldly sounding. No but seriously, definitely has a more upbeat and whimsical feeling to it.

You’ve been dropping music at such a rapid rate ahead of the newest album. I’ve just been playing a lot of video games. The rapper stopped by our office to play dress up, and to talk about his new album and headspace. It is safe to say that, at least right now, Tracy is in a pocket of flexing and fun.

This nod to his home base can be heard woven into tracks that pay homage to true designer talk, Virginia flex-flare. In his upcoming record, Designer Talk 2, Tracy channels that insatiable hunger for pleasure and channels back to his source of confidence: his roots. Tracy’s diverse discography mirrors his mutinous lifestyle, purely driven by an appetite for freedom. To be known merely as a “SoundCloud rapper” would be an understatement. Luckily for Tracy’s peace of mind, he’s refurbishing his previous dysphoric threads and wearing a lighter and more carefree version of himself.

Perhaps that's why he's been able to carve out such a distinct lane for himself-through his perpetually "emo" style and sound, he's become a sort of poster child as trap music's #1 "sad boi."įrom then, the cosmic artist traded in his Virginia threads to move to L.A and collaborate with fellow eccentric artists like SpaceGhostpurrp and the late Lil Peep. "My dad just instilled confidence in me, so I have never been scared to try out any look," he tells us. At an early age, Lil Tracy was instilled with expressive liberty.
