I'm really just happy to put this shit out. I don't know." But after it's out, I just don't give a fuck anymore. Like a couple days leading up to it, I'm nervous, like, "Yo, I don't know. If anything, I doubt myself more after the fact. I think I'm at a perfect sweet spot right now.ĭo you ever doubt yourself or your direction when making a project? If it feels like less work, then the project is coming out better. If it feels good coming out, then I really don't care about anything else, for real. Where does Fuck the World sit in your evolution as an artist?įuck the World is me finally hitting the point where I really don't give a fuck when it comes to how I approach it creatively, and how people receive it. “I listen to a lot of different types of genres, but I guess I’m R&B because I’m black, I sing, and I have a soulful voice.” But I might fuck around and make a reggae album tomorrow." I listen to a lot of different types of genres, but I guess I'm R&B because I'm black, I sing, and I have a soulful voice. "I don't wake up thinking about the genre of R&B as a whole," he explains. But he vows to show the world that his music can't be defined by a single genre. Many see Brent Faiyaz as one of the new faces of R&B. "It's all about just having fun with it." "If it feels good coming out, then I really don't care about anything else, for real," he says. The name of his sophomore project, Fuck the World, speaks to his energy. Three years later, even with increased popularity and the pressures that come along with that, he doesn't care about what people have to say about him. In some ways, not much has changed in Brent Faiyaz’s message since he released his debut solo album, Sonder Son, in 2017, and stole the show on GoldLink's hit song "Crew." He's the same Maryland native who will sing about being black in America on one verse, and a woman breaking his heart on the next.
