How have you found the last year to be? Has the Covid pandemic and much of the world being shut down affected you negatively in any way or have you found ways to keep motivated?ĭ: Covid has really given me time to reflect and look inwards at who I am and what I want to accomplish. The record wouldn’t be near what it is without those boys. Shoutout to our boy Jay Pichard for helping us write the song and a huge thanks to our producer Austin Shawn, we sent him a super rough demo and he brought the song to life and then some. Were there any other collaborators on the song – producers, writers, etc.

We didn’t want anything to get too deep or emotional, just wanted to make a feel-good jam and we definitely feel we accomplished that. We really just wanted to write a fun upbeat song that people could relate too and blast through the speakers. Is there any specific idea or message you want those who hear the track to take from it? Is there a particular story behind the new track “cold.”? Z: I have to go with Machine Gun Kelly, Joyner Lucas, Blackbear & Iann Dior. K: Fall Out Boy, Jeremy Zucker, Quinn XCII, All American Rejects and Lauv. Which bands or artists, past and present, would you say most influence each of your music?ĭ: 24kGoldn, The Kid LAROI, Surfaces, Chance the Rapper and Charlie Puth. From there, working and hanging just became a regular thing. It all just came together super naturally which is how the best songs are always made. We had met briefly a few times before then but aside from that, the night we wrote the song was really the first time we all kicked it together. Was your friendship built on creating music together or were you friends before collaborating? One minute we were talking and the next we were working on lyrics and melodies. There weren’t even set plans to write that day we just wanted to get together because we had heard of each other and loved what everyone had going on.

Was “cold.” pre-conceived or did the topic sporadically come up in a writing session? Smith to talk about their new collaboration, funnily enough titled “cold.” With March here, the first signs of spring are starting to show warmer weather included and earlier this week, PopWrapped caught up with artists danny G, Knox, and Z.
