MOD SUN Interview: Walk With Me | SPIN Cover Story
No doubt MOD’s lived many lives since Happy To Be Here was first published in 2015, stating that he feels fortunate to have accomplished so much of what he’d set out to do. His main goal is to keep evolving.
“I live in a 10-year cycle of art. I don't know where it came from, I don't know who said it first, but there is this idea in the art community, the painting community, that every 10 years a really, truly great artist recreates themselves. I heard that when I was 13 or 14, and I've lived by that.” From the age of 13 until his early 20s, MOD was playing drums; the next 10 years, he was rapping; and now, fully in the third phase, he’s “singing and playing drums and bringing them together.”
What about after that?
“Then I'll have another 10 years…that's maybe me and a guitar and harmonica just like Bob,” he says, of emulating Dylan. “My goal with my music is to consistently live in that 10-year cycle where it's, like, recreate yourself, be out to your audience, don't become stuck in trying to please them, you know what I'm saying? Be fearless with it.”

The following comes from a mission statement that appeared in the inaugural issue of SPIN. It means as much to this current staff as it did to the original writers and editors.
A confession: SPIN is imperfect. It’s rough-edged, restless, insatiably curious. A little aggressive, a little cocky. Youthfully uncompromising, but maturely flexible. Romantic - definitely! Irreverent - sure! Unpredictable - yes. Very alive.

Humble and real
Sunset Blvd was probably way different in the early 2000s. There used to be a really good Brazilian restaurant there. Not sure if it still is there because of the pandemic.
So much love to Mod Sun. He brightens my life with every word and it's so appreciated. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷🖤
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Mod for Pardyalone 😍🎶
You are building a Legacy 😊
🔥 💯💯
Mod should run for President
once you're the worst, the only way is up from there babbbyyyy
he hit it on the head when he said he doesnt know what to say... he can no longer talk about any real topics that humanity is struggling with. because he works for the people doing it.

I personally know that Mod Sun is an absolute humanitarian. He doesn’t work for anyone but himself. He helps this planet daily in ways you clearly don’t even know about.
Party and who ???
I wish you weren't smoking :( running and smoking do not go together!! My mom died of lung cancer from smoking!
