I had seen you had a tweet there a bit ago where you were saying you wrote and sang a soundtrack to a promotional video you put together. You said if Triller were a person, it’d be me.
Obviously, this is a hugely important undisputed title fight. But just the surrounding promotional dynamics, the performative nature of it, how does this moment feel for you?
“I feel like everything is coming full circle. Just, that’s my environment, that’s my environment. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Sorry, no drugs, no drugs. I think it’s just, I’m a creative. So I’ll be able to express myself in so many ways. Being able to fight, become undisputed, have music. That’s just me on the inside. Just a big party and a big ball of energy. Triller is doing their thing and I appreciate them giving me some creative control. Just letting me be me. Just let me be me. I don’t fit in anywhere else and Triller’s letting me be me. So that’s very appreciated.”
