Mr Eazi tells Apple Music about the Inspiration of ‘The Evil Genius’ Album Title

Embed –

So we just keep bouncing names, and I think the energy inside of me was: you know what, yes I’m at the crossroads, but I’m not gonna go please anyone any more. I’m not trying to please anybody, I’m just trying to please myself, and since people think there’s always… like, we just talked about how I made the Chop Life [Soundsystem] album, which was very random, but people always feel like I’m super calculated, so I’m like ok, I’m a genius? I’m the evil genius.
I accept anything you want to call me – good, bad, I am the evil genius – and that’s how we came up with the name.

Mr Eazi tells Apple Music about the Crossroads He Faced While Making ‘The Evil Genius’

Embed –

At the time I was making the music, I was battling between what is the next step, what’s the next journey. Do I just concentrate on being an entrepreneur, and just go be great at being an entrepreneur, and leave the music? I was having this internal struggle – which career path do I pick? – and I was just about to go from having a girlfriend to getting engaged, and so it’s like going from single man to the next level of commitment, so I was literally at the crossroads, and even internally with my friendships and relationships around me, I was basically struggling to please everyone. When I would hear ‘oh, Eazi said this…’ I would want to go out of my way to convince you that I’m not the bad guy.
