New Single "World Is Fucked” from WizTheMc

Hi! Congratulations on the release of 'World Is Fucked'! What was the inspiration behind this single?

The current state of the world really inspired me to write this song...whilst also maintaining a positive outlook on everything, no matter how bad things might seem. I think it’s important to know whats going on and not being ignorant to all the bad and evil things that are going on...tho[ugh[ after having digested some of that information you can do with it what you want and still view the world with an open heart.

What was the process like for creating 'World Is Fucked'? Did COVID- 19 affect it, and if so, how did you go tackle any issues COVID caused?

I was out of town with Jeff Hazin writing songs when we came up with that tune. Us wanting to travel, see places and make music with people in person- made us see whats not possible because of the COVID in this time and felt the need to address it in WIF.

Is there anything in specific that pushed you into pursuing music as your career?

I thought rapping was the coolest thing in my teenage years. And I still think that. So I guess after rapping consistently over a period of 2,3 years...I didn’t see myself quitting so I just never stopped.

How would you describe your creative process? Do you pull inspiration from events in your life or choose to portray a specific topic in each song?

Depending on the mood the music is giving me..I write about recent situations, older memories or even things I never felt before in an attempt to understand certain perspectives better.

Are there any artists or bands who inspire you?

Beatles, Queen, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Billy Talent.

Do you have a favorite lyric from 'World is Fucked'?

"I‘m not gon front imma tell you what it is, won‘t sell myself short cause i got lots to give"

When releasing 'World Is Fucked', did you preview the songs for anyone beforehand? What reaction do you hope to achieve from people who listen to the song for the first time.

I want them to dance and jam out to this hyper relatable song with one eye crying and one laughing. What else is there to do when you hear an upbeat song about the apocalypse?

You have an interesting dynamic of pop and hip-hop rhythms in your music, how important is it for you to create a sound distinguishable to you or would you consider yourself to have a specific sound?

For the most part i don‘t try to create a distinguishable sound. I used to imitate alot of rappers in my first years of making music. I‘d still say that no matter how hard you try sounding like anyone else...you‘ll find your own sound along the way (in the ideal situation).

You've released quite a lot of music over the past year, including your EP 'What About Now', how has the release process been for you especially with a lot of press and stuff being remote? And out of the songs you have put out so far, do you have a favorite?

Releasing music is one of my top 3 favourite things so its always exciting. Some of my older songs start to grow on me lately and every now and then i think to myself "damn you were such a young genius"...but otherwise all my favourite songs are unreleased.

Lastly, is there a genre of music you'd like to try out?

I don‘t think theres many I haven’t tried out yet. But I‘m excited sharing some of the new genres i‘ve been exploring with the new music. Thank you guys for having me and supporting my project. Means a lot. Much Love.
