And you know, over time we figured it out. I didn't love it so I didn't know where I wanted to take the song.
Because a lot of these songs are like a year and a half old and I'll do like 50 different versions and remakes of them. "Pressure in my Palms" had a moment where it almost got cut. If I made the same album twice, I really really don't think people would be hyped about that.ĭid you have any songs that you almost didn't include? That's kind of how, that's how I like to make music at least. That style of my rapping has never really changed, but phonically, I do believe albums should change. I don't because I think people know my voice and know the way I like to rap. Do you think that you're still in the process of figuring out your personal style or do you not believe in having one set musical style? Good For You, ONEPOINTFIVE, and Limbo have all kind of varied in style.
Limbo amine album update#
I think a lot of people know this, it was kind of like a big, big update to people when they listen to Limbo, you know what I mean? It was like you haven't heard from me in a year and a half or so, so it was kind of like a big life dump, you know? I think, yeah I think Limbo is a perfect reflection. I think it reflects where I'm at today pretty perfectly. How do you think Limbo reflects where you are today? It just opened doors for me personally of a lot of growth too, and just kind of realized where I'm at in my life and where I need to be going forward. The album is definitely something I noticed after I made it, like me and my friends kind of realized I’m going through a quarter-life crisis and making music for it. And for me, yeah just the past couple years have been kind of, are like the making of my manhood I guess as an adult. I mean just with age as well, like the older you get, the wiser you get sometimes, at least for some people. How do you think you've grown as an artist since you first started working on it?Īminé: I think I've grown a lot.
Either way, they show that even with the fame and success since his first single took off, he’s still figuring everything out and working through his personal limbo.Įsquire: You told Preme that this album took two years to finish. These songs reflect different times, feelings, people, and places over the past few years for the rapper, but ultimately reflect growth, or as Aminé described it in a phone call with Esquire, a quarter-life crisis. After taking breaks in between to make the EP/LP/mixtape/album ONEPOINTFIVE, complete a world tour, and break into acting, he’s back with 14 new tracks. Now at 26 years old, Aminé is back with his second studio album that took him years to perfect. Aminé emerged when he was just 21 years old with the debut single "Caroline," which made it to No.
