Deebaby Interview | 'Junkie Mode,' Houston, Kevin Gates, Kodak Black, Inspirations & More!
Музыка
#OGM #Deebaby #OurGenerationMusic
Deebaby lives every day like it's his last. "Would you rather die in the city you were born in or would you rather die doing something that you love? I love what I do," he says to Hakeem Rowe, calling on people to take the leap of faith they proverbially put off. Manifestation is one thing, but for the Houston-born, Mexican emcee, you can't manifest what you don't work towards.
While his debut, 'The Black Sheep,' was created throughout his stint of sobriety -- trying to rid his body of all the "disgusting" things surrounding him at the time -- his latest 'Junkie Mode' (April 7) sees Deebaby "back in motion," knowingly for better or for worse, embracing his vices that shot his visibility through the roof. Clad with co-signs from Kodak Black and Kevin Gates, who refers to Deebaby as "the Mexican version of me," tracks like "Love Scars," "Listen To Your Heart" and the fan-favorite "Anymore" sees the Texas emcee's evolution come full circle -- filled with emotional Southern-hybrid hip-hop that reads like a love story.
With reference points from Houston's prolific Chopped N Screwed scene, hard rock and an affinity for country music, Deebaby is admittedly hard to pin down in every way. And yet, that's his allure. His sound is a perfect picture of hidden eccentricity and profound thoughts, discussing the greater meaning of life and death with Keem amid conversation of his creative process, new music with Kevin Gates and Kodak Black on the way, his roots in Houston, being a Mexican rapper and so much more in this Our Generation Music exclusive.

Now u have no cap space because u can get as high as u want. I’m slowly stopping because I’m not about to spend every dollar I make and have on percs and drank so I just deal wit the withdrawl and pain & now I’m finally shaking it.

Good that you one that. Everyone switched up except Gagy I’m the only malev in the family and they have all had negative experiences with men but Fuck Me if she hadn’t said “i never thought she was authentic,” she’s the only one that has the judge experience wisdom and love to withhold judgement and it’s my main goal to get her as much time with her great grandchild as possible.

We still love you Deebaby, we all go through it. Salute to bro for being understanding and not embarrassing him in this interview. This probably one of the most solid dudes. I be talking in circles sometimes 🤷🏼♀
Just on here to show support from NW Houston. My husband always listening to Deebaby's music. I felt what he said about his Grandma. My husband is the only person in my life that has ever compared a family member to God. He has been thru some things that has molded his outlook on life and hearing that come from someone else is crazy. Wish Deebaby the best in his life and musical career.
He nothing but real! Microdosing is always the best! 🍄 it healed me 3 yrs ago. I will be at his show this Friday in Kansas City. 🇲🇽

Stay Strong 💪 Bro it Don’t rain 🌧️ every day let go what’s got you in pain an Be Happy Bro
His music is fire
Bro cold asf istg by the end of 2023 he gon be top 3.
You can tell he is really holding back a ton of pain behind those shades. He really wants to open up but he's felt like an unimportant and that no one wants to really listen to him. He starts to get into it then instantly shuts down deflecting not going to deep into his true feelings. It's sad I know everyone has issues that they hold back deep down. Hope bro really gets closure one day and receives the acceptance and comfort that he deserves.
Hopefully Bro gets sober again. Not tryna see another rapper die way too young. DeeBaby too hard 🔥🔥🔥
I relate to junkie mode cause I’m going through the same shit 🤦🏽♂️ been 3 yrs now
