I just haven\u2019t been on it. My fans, I feel like my fans are super. I got my own fan base. I\u2019m not really like the type of artist where I\u2019m sharing fans with everybody. I have Yung Bans fans. And I might not have the most fans, but when I drop it, or when I say something when I post, they going to like it. They going to see, and they going to be there. I ain\u2019t really got to maintain it.<\/p>\n<p>Now, if I want to go up and I want to be super active, you know what I\u2019m saying? Gain a wider audience.

I want to inspire people and motivate the youth.<\/p>\n<p>People don\u2019t really realize it, like all the new people, all the new fans. Bro, I\u2019ve been in this shit since I was 17. I\u2019m 21 years old. I don\u2019t like fiending for attention. I\u2019m not fiending for the attention. If I feel like making a post, I feel like talking, speaking on something, I speak on it.

I realized that being in the house so much, sitting at home, I just got a real big heart. I sometimes let a lot of people around me. I shouldn\u2019t always have that many people around me because you never know people\u2019s true intentions. So I just learned that my heart a little bit too big and I got to distance myself. I love them from a distance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> What were some of the things that you were doing to elevate your sound with this project you have coming out?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> Basically, to elevate my sound, every time I get in the studio and I get in a booth, I just try and think outside the box. So when I\u2019m making a song, and I get on a beat, and the beat plays, well, it\u2019s like what can I do that nobody else done? I\u2019m not going to take a regular approach that somebody would take on this beat. Let me take a different approach. Let\u2019s still make it be me. Also more melodic type shit. Give them something they never heard before.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. For the first one after the EP, I\u2019ll probably drop an album because I ain\u2019t dropped nothing this year so I got to keep that all the way hot, keep that blazing. Let them know that I\u2019m about to kick shit into high gear so here\u2019s an EP for y\u2019all. I just want to test the waters with some of these songs to see what they like the most.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> How different will this EP be from the 5-set series you released between 2017 and 2018?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> That honestly wasn\u2019t really an idea of mine. The EPs, the Yung Bans volumes discs, they were successful. They really gave me a wider platform but it was like, I don\u2019t want to do that because it was all old music from SoundCloud. All my diehard fans, they know that, okay, all these songs that he\u2019s dropping are old and these are just from SoundCloud. He put them on streaming platforms and I might have added one or two songs. The singles are what put me on a bigger level.<\/p>\n<p>But those are dead. Some days, I just want to take them down because I didn\u2019t want to drop old music on platforms. Basically my catalog, I don\u2019t want it to be a lot of projects because I\u2019m not dropping real projects. Those weren\u2019t real projects. It\u2019s just old music that\u2019s already been out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> What\u2019s the inspiration behind the album you have coming out?<\/p>\n<p>Yung Bans: It\u2019s called <em>RR<\/em>. I\u2019m just changing. I\u2019m a rockstar and my lifestyle is just me saying I don\u2019t give a fuck. It\u2019s just me. It ain\u2019t no sugarcoat or fa\u00e7ade. It\u2019s just me. That\u2019s why I call it <em>RR<\/em>. But <em>RR<\/em> can mean a lot of things. It can mean a real rush. It can mean really rich. It can mean a real rebel. It can mean anything. It can mean a lot of things to me. So that\u2019s why I named it <em>RR<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The reason I don\u2019t drop a lot of projects is because I got to get the inspiration first. But once I get the inspiration, the name and a title is when I start working on a project. It got to come to me. I don\u2019t just sit down and just make it and name it this so we can drop and get some money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> What makes you feel like a rockstar in the Hip Hop community?<\/p>\n<p>Yung Bans: It\u2019s how I feel right now at this stage in my life and what I label myself as. I\u2019m not a typical rockstar. It\u2019s me as a rockstar but my version of being a rockstar. Our version, me and my fans\u2019 version. This is what I look like. You know what I\u2019m saying? This is the rockstar that I am.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B7pPcJ2BoAY\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B7pPcJ2BoAY\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\">A post shared by YUNG BILLION (@yungbans)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> There\u2019s been other rappers who have called themselves rockstars. What\u2019s your version of being a rockstar and how does that differ from being a rapper?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> They got to see for themselves. When you pay attention, then you understand. All my real dog friends, they know that Bans is just him. Unapologetically, I\u2019m just me. I\u2019m not trying to be like anybody else. I\u2019m not trying to fit in with anybody. It\u2019s like how they feel an artist should be and how they should move.<\/p>\n<p>I want all the fans, I want all the kids, and I want you to know that. If you want to be an artist, you want to make music, you don\u2019t got to fit into this bubble artist, this social group of people, you ain\u2019t got to act like this to be just yourself. You ain\u2019t got to give a fuck about none of that. You just be you. You can be a rockstar, you can be whatever.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Yung Bans -  Freak Show (Featuring Mulatto) [Official Video]\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uD_E6eDYyxk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> We always hear rappers say there\u2019s a song they have that they don\u2019t necessarily like but the label or team does. Hearing you talk about how you really care about your music, how do you work around situations like that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> I\u2019m still battling that problem right now. That\u2019s why the project really hasn\u2019t dropped yet because we still trying to make final decisions. I\u2019m still trying to come to a medium with it and with my team and everybody about what they feel. I feel like the only thing I\u2019m missing as an artist right now is that my team wants me to do all these big, big numbers. Those gold, platinum, selling records. They going crazy for those.<\/p>\n<p>But I feel like personally, me, I\u2019m not that kind of artist. When it\u2019s time for my hit to come, it\u2019s going to come. I want it to be a Yung Bans hit. Not an industry hit like we just made this song because we think it\u2019d be a hit. I feel like whenever I make a hit, it\u2019ll just be because my fans chose it and they went crazy for that song and they spread it to the whole world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> With you being 21 right now, if you can go back in time and talk to your 17-year-old self with all the drama that you went through and seen, what would you tell yourself?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> I would have told myself probably nothing, bro. I\u2019m a beast and I go crazy. I would tell myself probably just save money. Having a big heart like mine I probably gave a lot of shit away. I even did a lot of shit for a lot of people who didn\u2019t deserve it and when shit hit the fan, I realized that I was going out my way for everybody else but they wouldn\u2019t do the same for me. So I would tell myself to save money, stay to yourself and don\u2019t let everybody in because not everybody deserves that love and don\u2019t deserve my blessings that God given me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HipHopDX:<\/strong> It seems like you\u2019re really working hard to make sure this next era of your career and life is better than the last. What do you plan for yourself in this next era?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yung Bans:<\/strong> Just growth. I just want to get my team all the way solid and you know, I have to grow up. I\u2019m 21 now. I got to be a businessman and a tycoon in this shit. I got to be able to make investments. I got all these businesses and I\u2019m getting artists\u2019 money, I\u2019m getting this, I\u2019m doing that. I got to be able to handle everything. I\u2019m also just making sure I got the right people around me. I\u2019m making sure I\u2019m in the right environment to be able to think clearly and see shit for what\u2019s important, like moving forward in my career.<\/p>\n<p><em>Check out more Yung Bans content here.
