AntidoteS: Can I ask you a hypermasculine question? You can also tell me to shut the f*** up. What does “Not Like Us” mean to you?
KL: (Laughing) Not like us? Not like us is the energy of who I am, the type of man I represent. Now, if you identify with the man that I represent …
S: Break the man down for me.
KL: This man has morals, he has values, he believes in something, he stands on something. He’s not pandering.
He’s a man who can recognize his mistakes and not be afraid to share the mistakes and can dig deep down into fear-based ideologies or experiences to be able to express them without feeling like he’s less of a man.
If I’m thinking of “Not Like Us,” I’m thinking of me and whoever identifies with that.
Glad this was asked hope fans recognize its not that serious

Oct 21, 2024damn, Kenny got to ask a question back at the end there and SZA's vulnerability stole the interview lol.
I wrote a song last summer that was too honest, and I couldn’t put it out. I just be telling on myself so crazy and I can’t stop. It’s like I have to tell on myself so I’m not bored. Because otherwise, I’m just like, what’s the point?
When I’m in the studio, it hurts too much sometimes. Maybe that’s why I tap in and pretend to be other people. That’s why I’m pretending to be you or pretending to be Frank Ocean or pretending to be Future, because it’s easy. It’s easier to be me through their eyes than it is to sit with some of the really harsh things that I say about myself to myself. I guess I want to say nicer things about myself. So I’m like, I guess I shouldn’t look through my eyes. I should look through somebody else’s.
But when I heard Mr. Morale, I was like, “I’m not digging deep enough in my art. I’m running from so many things.” So now I’m in my bag, I’m like, “Okay, I’m codependent. I’m a people pleaser. I’m afraid of all these things. I’m so f***ing selfish.” All these things I tell myself because I have to, to strip the ego from the bottom. I have to because I’m bored to death with this iteration of myself.
Why am I trying to not be human so bad? Because it hurts so damn bad. But that is the job. No matter how many spirits you talk to or any of that. It just doesn’t matter. You have to be here. You’re going to be in the ether eventually. It’s just not now.
