Interviews

MONTREALITY

i-D Mag. - Earl Sweatshirt and Sage Elsesser reflect on two decades of friendship

Sage, your parents are Chilean and Black, Thebe your parents are South African and Black. How does that feed into your music and how does it inspire it?

Thebe:
That s*** is everything boi. It’s the foundation of what you’re standing on for you to reach new dimensions and old.

Sage:
I agree. I was privileged. I was shown a lot of worldly music and literature. Mid-City Arts and Culture helped inform me to create the type of s*** I wanted to create.

How do you feel about critics using the term “abstract hip-hop” to describe your music?

Thebe:
The only box that I would subscribe to is an action. I think n****s just be rapping. To make a box too tailored is like picking apart a joke until it’s not funny. That doesn’t interest me.

How did “Some Rap Songs” affect the trajectory of your career?

Sage:
It’s a great song, “The Mint”, and it was like being introduced to the world. On a great album. On an Earl album. It was nice because he was working on it a lot at my apartment in New York. I did a few beats on there and it happened naturally.

IN

without a doubt one of the greatest lyricists of our generation.

we roam tundras

the boy been gone a few summers
too long from road running
trunk full of old hunnids
of course my old lover was scorned
we grow from it, dont
tell me they dont hunt us for sport i chose substances
no cuddles, the bases is all
covered niggas come in the door and smoke something
choke up on the slugger from home run-in's
nigga its on, chest thump his thump on the floor
we pressed
up on the boy no more bluffin
cold summers dont
tussle with strangers some of those keep
one in the chambers three spliffs had my
wing tips clipped i was stuck in a hangar
nigga
muffle my pain and muzzle my brain up
really im jus making sure my promise is kept
chuck a deuce if u kno its the end
keep the truth in my palm and my chest
see it through
keep a noose hanging off of my neck
we got the juice niggas corny as s***
we on the loose niggas know what it is
we making moves
niggas corny as s*** we got the juice niggas know what it is
yeah

'three spliffs had my
wing tips clipped i was stuck in a hangar
muffle my pain and muzzle my brain up
really im jus making sure my promise is kept
chuck a deuce if u kno its the end
keep the truth in my palm and my chest
see it through
keep a noose hanging off of my neck'

probably my favourite bars on the album
