![]() ![]() Plus, there are always pick-ups and drop-offs throughout the day at the capital’s five busy airports airports-London City, London Gatwick, London Heathrow, London Luton, and London Stansted-which are all served by Uber. Whether it’s a quick trip from one borough to another or a ride to one of the city’s many attractions (Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London are tourist hotspots), there’s plenty of variety when you drive on the Uber platform in London. People can listen to me on when they don’t even have to pull it up - the song just comes on.As you might’ve guessed, Uber is available throughout London and the surrounding area. Like Gucci said, you gotta have the sauce.ĭo you remember the first time you heard yourself on the radio? I’ll listen to a Gucci Mane song and then put a Calvin Harris song on. I moved everywhere, so I got something different in the mix. So when people call me an Atlanta artist, it’s like, there a lot of other rappers right now that would hate someone calling me an Atlanta artist - they grew up here. Musicians always want to be like, “This is where I’m from, this is what I rep.” But I’ve never had that, because my pops is in the military. I’m part of that young movement in the mixture of me, Lil Yachty, Playboi Carti. That’s where my music started popping off. How do you feel you fit in with the Atlanta rap scene? You’re not gonna always have the Magic City strippers and the Ferraris. I wanted to make it where everybody could do it. You probably thought I was going to be around a whole bunch of chicks. I didn’t want to do the typical - “Oh, he has an Uber, he’s in the Uber, he’s driving.” I wanted to capture normal life playing tennis and wearing a turtleneck by the lake. The video for “Uber Everywhere” is not what you would expect. I have a record with 2 Chainz, another with Ty Dolla $ign, and I’m getting ready to put the remix video out for “Uber Everywhere.” I haven’t put them up for sale, they’re just on SoundCloud. I got a few records that are already doing good. Everybody is riding Uber.ĭo you worry about becoming a one-hit wonder? Why do you feel like “Uber” has become a success?Ĭause it’s Uber. But when you got the aux chord, you got the AC on, they might have waters in the back, candy - if you get all of that? That’s a good ride. Other than that - every time I’m in an Uber, I’m always in a rush. I guess the best ones are the ones that’s free. I seen they were talking about something like a jet Uber coming soon. Today I looked at my phone and I had like a lot of free rides. No, but because I had my song, I put my promo code out and people have been using it. ![]() But I feel like after so many people ask me about Uber, eventually they’re gonna reach out to do something. ![]() Anything that makes me dance and move, I feel like it’ll make other people dance and move.ĭid Uber reach out to you after the song became a hit? It felt like just being in a good place, but it still had a dirty feel to it. It reminds me every time I hear it – I’ve never been mad playing a video game. It had a mixture of Guwop and Super Mario. I think my core fan base doesn’t listen to “Uber” no more. I was taking less Ubers before the song now I’m taking more. The song really wasn’t about Uber, but the hook of it was catchy, and I was saying Uber, and I looped it. I waited like a month and put another verse on it. One of those beats was “Uber.” It was just a verse at first and people liked it when I laid it down - this was in the kitchen/living room of my house. I downloaded some and recorded a couple of them. How did you start working on “Uber Everywhere”? When my dad was working at the Pentagon, my cousin Juan bought me and my brother Rizzy a microphone. What about rapping, when did you start that? But this year I started getting serious with it and getting my beats to artists that I really want to work with. When did you start making your own beats? Yeah and I was also getting hip to other music in the clubs - house music and all of that. You listened to a lot of American rap over there? Japan appreciates the music more, so I enjoyed that. All these nationalities in one room, but they’re all hip to the Atlanta playlist. You’ve got a mixture of everybody - people from New York, Miami, Brazil. That’s the stuff that made me - getting in trouble, going off base, going to Tokyo and partying. I feel like high school is the years you grow up, the years you find yourself. And your name comes from your time in Tokyo? ![]()
