Throughout college I was getting better and better at making recordings, producing songs, making different kinds of beats.

I want to live in a world that is less white supremacist, straight supremacist, male supremacist.

Well, I think that I have a complicated relationship with whiteness because oftentimes, I pass as white, and I recognize that. I would be disingenuous to pretend that I don't pass as white.

I figured out that it was important for me to have my identity, just live independently and like being myself, musically.

The most exciting songs to me are the unlikely hits, when you think, 'I love this, but why is it on the radio?'

Well, the announcement to say that I was no longer a member of Vampire Weekend was something that was in the works for a long time. I knew that it was the right choice for me.

I can pass as a lot of things: people meet me and don't think I'm gay and speak about gay people in a certain way or they don't know I'm Middle Eastern and do the same.

Whenever I work on a project I put all of myself into it.
