American rapper G-Eazy was left awestruck by India as he visited the country recently for a performance in Bengaluru, New Delhi, and Mumbai.
In an interview, he said, “I was so excited not only to perform but also to explore the country for the first time. It’s a place I’ve wanted to travel to my whole life and I’m just grateful I get to finally go - it’s an added bonus that I got to perform there and do what I love. People used to tell me you have the biggest fanbase here and now I know why. I’ve been fascinated about the culture, the music, the fans, the cuisine.”
The ‘No Limit’ hitmaker adds that considering it was his first time here, he wanted to also gorge on the lip-smacking cuisine, “I love the spicy green chutney, the biryani, chicken curry and the dals. I’ve explored local markets and the streets, interacted with some amazing people and it’s been incredible.”
In the interview, he also opened up about his toughest work. When asked which one of his raps he believes has been the toughest to pen down? He said, “Not the most difficult but I’d say some of the most vulnerable songs I’ve written - ‘Himself,’ ‘Running Through The Night.’ It was an emotional rollercoaster writing and recording some of these songs, but it felt important to share. It was about balancing vulnerability with staying true to my artistic vision. It was hard to revisit those dark places and tough opening up like that, but it felt therapeutic.”
