PartyNextDoor

“I openly share music with Drake, especially when it's time for him to have a project.”

“Halsey's so talented and her voice is so strong and it's so addicting.”

“My mother didn't listen to my first tape, or my second one.”

“When you get into the studio, you never know who is going to fit your energy.”

“I think everyone has their roles, and in my opinion, I'm like the young hot boy of OVO: stubborn, very step-out-on-his-own and do-his-own-thing.”

“I thought, 'Write a hit, you'll be rich and happy.' Meet one of the most beautiful girls in the world, one of the most talented and I'll be happy. All of that: I'm not happy.”

“I'm going to make the music I make regardless and it's always going to be driven by rhythm and blues and hopefully it becomes popular. But I don't cater to, like, 'OK, I want to make music that's going to fit in this pop world or go on the charts, etcetera, etcetera.' Hopefully, enough people like it so it becomes popular.”

“I'll make a whole bunch of beats whenever, but unless I'm living through something or have a female in mind, or have a conversation in my phone I could scroll through, I'm not making music.”

“There's a difference wherever you go in Canada, Ontario and the GTA.”

“I'll take a shot of vodka if I want it to be raspy... I tell whoever's in the studio to get boiling hot water, like super boiling, that they're afraid to give it to me. I put it exactly on the back of my tongue to shock my body. That cleans it up.”

“I competitively want to produce just as many records for Drake as Kanye West did for Jay Z.”

“I would like to say that OVO, me being on OVO, they kinda protect me from the industry, so I'm not around it. I'm not around it unless I choose to be, or unless I ask to be.”

“I want to write just as much as Kanye may have for whomever Kanye has written for.”

“I'm a recording artist, a performing artist and a producing artist. All those things have everything to do with the outcome of my shows. I get myself studying every part of the game and not everyone has the characteristic to do that. In my mind, you need all three to become an artist.”

“I want to do as much as I can do while I'm young.”

“I would never call myself mysterious. The word I use is 'private.'”

“I could make a PartyNextDoor album that's clean, all hits. That's not what I care about doing.”

“Of course I want to be a superstar, but it doesn't happen overnight, and I see that from having a mentor.”

“I think too much, which is a blessing and a curse.”

“I'll flip samples where one's a completely dark song and the next one is a complete sexual song. People think my whole thing is a dark thing, but I don't.”
