Interviews.
Conversations with unique individuals.
Heralded as one of the most influential, important and legendary minds in hip-hop, DJ Drama has lived the life that a DJ could only dream of. Drama overran the noughties after connecting with T.I and created the first ever Gangsta Grillz mixtape, igniting a revolution that made him the most sought-after producer and DJ of the 2000s and 2010s.
Destroy Lonely doesn’t give a f*ck whether you like him or not. He doesn’t care whether you hate the music he makes and he doesn’t care if he’s not on your top five rappers of all time list. At the end of the day, all he wants is to be a vessel for his raw vulnerability. His jagged and spectral sonics feed into horror, like claws to flesh scraping through a brash lifestyle that he follows unapologetically, with the music bleeding through him into the world, seeking out those who ache in the same places who crave beauty laced with chaos.
Drawing upon the inspiraton that his city simmered in, 6LACK remains loyal to his roots by paying homage to his hometown like in his globally-loved East Atlanta Love Letter, a charming sibling to his more wistful Grammy-Award nominated debut Free 6LACK. His latest body of work, Since I Have A Lover, is his most mindfully mature piece yet, as he delves deeper into his artistic evolution, reflecting on his inner growth, his pathway, having a family of his own and how he’s much more fulfilled in a new flow of life.
