00:00You're being honored as Billboard's R&B Hip-Hop Rookie of the Year.
00:03What was your reaction when you found that out?
00:05I was taken aback, as everything, you know, I'm still very present, still very honored
00:10for every small accomplishment being an accomplishment, so I'm just happy to be seen, yeah.
00:15You've worked with artists from Tyler, the Creator, to Doja Cat.
00:17What have more established artists taught you about hip-hop?
00:19They just lead by example.
00:24The love that they show me, the information that they give me, they're just showing me
00:27exactly what to do to the next person that comes up who's going to be innovative and
00:29groundbreaking, for sure.
00:32Now we are at Hip-Hop Power Players, I'm going to have to ask you, describe hip-hop in one
00:36word for me.
00:37Hip-hop in one word is cultures, community, oh you said one word, I'm sorry I can't, I
00:41would say accepting, hip-hop is accepting, and I'm thankful that they accepted me.
00:46That's beautiful man, have a great time tonight, congratulations.
