I made a Twitter account when I was 10 years old. I wasn't even trying to be funny. I was still tweeting in Indonesian. I didn't really speak English yet.

I say funny stuff in my lyrics to make people laugh, but it's all in the seriousness of the music. I'm just being witty.

I'm inspired by a lot of things. I came from Indonesia. I grew up watching a lot of YouTube videos and was inspired by all these other things. I just love making music. I don't think I'm trying to profit off anything. I just like creating stuff.

My main goal was to be a cinematographer. I was making short films, and the plan was to keep uploading them on Twitter and build a fanbase there. One day, I just started making music for fun. When I made 'Dat $tick,' it blew up, and I saw the potential in that.

I've known about hip-hop for a long time. The first time it intrigued me was when I saw this music video by Tyga on television. I was intrigued by the whole aesthetic. It was very unique.

I actually, honestly don't look into politics that much.

I learned how to make videos, I learned how to make music, I learned English from the Internet. It's such a great platform, too, to release your stuff.

It's pretty hard as an Asian rapper to not be put in a box. I do my best to avoid that.

I don't want to be boxed in or looked at a certain way, as in, 'Yo, he's an Asian rapper.'

I'm definitely not making fun of hip-hop.
