"I had been on tour for like six months or so, and I made this record near the end of the run. I came up with an idea, to say some stuff that’ll actually make people think, so it’s a bunch of 'What if?' questions 'What if Bill Clinton never got head? Would we pay attention to real things instead?' to 'What if Pac wasn’t dead?'" That might be me on certain days, but like, I’m actually that dude throwing $5,000 in the strip club with my homies, being drunk and obliterated out of my mind and coming home at 6 a.m." I listen to Future as much as I listen to Tribe Called Quest, you know what I mean? There’s multiple sides of my personality, it’s not just all introspective and moody. This one, I made the rounds and worked with a lot of different people, but at the end of the day, if it didn’t feel genuine to me, I didn’t do it. On the last album, I did most of the record with one producer.

I had flown to Atlanta to start working on the album and I was working with Southside down there, and if you’re gonna go work with Southside, that’s the point-it’s to.

It’s about the allure of the night and the rush and the lifestyle and the drinking, the drugs, and the chaos and the craziness, and how it’s hard to find and keep love in that kind of space, in that kind of environment, in that kind of world." It reminds me of a tempo and a bounce that I grew up listening to." On 'Calm Down,' I just wanted to do something light, and talk shit and have fun. "A lot of the tones on this album are really dark and moody and introspective, with a lot of minor chords. I found out an actor was my next-door neighbor, and he and my other neighbors kept calling the cops, so that’s why I say that line in the second verse." And I kept getting the cops called on me because the neighbors didn’t like me. I was having parties, naturally-that’s what you do when you move into a house in the hills in L.A. That was one of the last songs I made on the album, and I had just moved into a big house in the hills in L.A. It’s that same kind of thing : Too $hort was one of my heroes I grew up listening to him and now I’m able to hit him up and say, 'I got this record I think you’d sound good on.' He came through and did it the next day. "I had literally done this whole record myself, but I always had Too $hort in mind for this one. "Oh, man, the album comes out December 4. So, you start to feel like you’re growing apart from people back home." To travel and to work every single day, it’s not like you wake up in the same bed and go to the same job and come home and go to sleep in the same bed every day. "I had just gotten back from Europe, and during touring and everything, it was hard to maintain personal relationships. You can call Big Sean up and be like, 'Yeah, I have this record I think you’d sound amazing on.' He cut the verse and sent it right back to me, so that was love." You get to this point where you become peers. The crazy thing about where I’m at right now in my career is that realizing that when I meet people, I can actually reach out to them. "That track is about the other side of G-Eazy the desire to have it all, to be the biggest thing in the world…. Music, the thing that I fell in love with years and years and years ago, is what is bringing me around the world and it’s the reason I’m here." But at the end of the day, it is beautiful that I get to do this. You don’t get to go home and take the uniform off-I am the uniform, and it can be kinda hard to escape sometimes. The one thing about this job is, you’re never off the clock. I’m a Gemini and there really are these multiple sides of me, so part of me is enjoying the ride, the other half has a hard time adjusting to this new lifestyle sometimes. It’s like a roller coaster that I’m on right now and no matter what anybody tells you, there’s really nothing that can prepare you for what it’s like or how crazy it gets. This last year and a half to two years of my life have been really crazy. "This is a really honest, personal record. It’s not like it was given to me or handed out." It’s like when the album comes out and it does really well, this is by virtue of putting my blood, sweat, and tears into something for over a decade. It’s not like I got lucky and took a shortcut or it just fell out of the sky.

is a reminder in general that this is 12 years of hard work, putting every dollar I had back into everything, working my ass off to be here. It’s gotta grab your attention off the bat. "I feel like it is really important when you’re putting the order all together, the first song has to be really hard, really aggressive.
