Badchieff in an interview: “Live is always the hottest anyway”
For Badchieff, the stage is the most honest place. “Because it is the moment you can get something back.” Click numbers are “a bit cryptic”, but stage energy is noticeable. The adrenaline thickness before every appearance – essential.
“I had Donda 2 on my cell phone in mysterious way”
A dinner with A $ AP Ferg mutates into an anecdote: While Ferg talks about Kanye, Badchieff suddenly pulls Donda 2 out of his pocket – long before the release. The reaction? Incredulous amazement. You can find out more about this in the video interview.
To the festival interview:
“The red thread is and your voice”
About today or yesterday he says: “I really waited for something to arise until something was created, with a good idea that I am behind.” He doesn’t care about genre boundaries: his voice remains the connecting element in the sound cycle. Whether with Ski AGGU or Sira features, it does not create according to plan, but of course and of the situation. “It has to fit human and musically.” This openness is reflected in his music.
