Now, this is what we call skill.
Describe your sound in 3 words
Poetic. Desert. Raw.
What inspired the title ‘American Spirit’ and how does it reflect the mood or theme of the track?
It’s the kind of cigs I smoke. It doesn’t feel like this daunting addiction to me. I actually feel like I have a sort of beautiful relationship with it. But it effects everyone around me especially my brother. We live together. Do everything together and he HATES IT. So I feel like “I have to quit. My ma hates it too.
What does hip hop symbolize in your opinion?
It symbolizes so much but to me personally it symbolizes unapologetic expression. My brother grew up very inspired by hiphop culture. I would always find homie on his head in his room or the garage. I’m sure he has a lot to say here. I could also write novels here and float the fuck on forever.
Your most honest and personal lyric?
I would say every lyric is personal but for this song: “If it’s wrapped in white I want all the smoke, that’s the American Spirit”
Favourite rapper, lyricist and producer?
Kendrick. Eminem. My brother. He would probably say Bon Iver or someone like that.
In which state of mind do you imagine people might listen to your music?
I imagine out of curiosity. Or fomo haha.
If the music of Pink Jagg was a film, which film would that be?
Damn. Something that has many details. That all the little details mean something or are intentional. Something poetic. On some Severance type vibe. Interstellar maybe.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
Don’t listen to them.
Thank you!
