As a teen, he convinced his parents to let him postpone college for a year to focus solely on music...Lookas credits Miami's sketchy all-ages party circuit for pushing him into producing his own material. "There was [one club] where they would throw events and I would go there and get ripped off by the promoters. I would go there and DJ for like 1,000 kids and not get paid," he says. "So I told myself I would stop playing these gigs and getting ripped off, and spending some time writing music."

Having incorporated some heavy metal elements in your hit track "Game Over" with Crankdat, do you think this could become a part of your signature sound?... And when Crankdat – because we worked on the internet with that track – he sent me an edit with an EDM break and I was like, dude, this drop is so hard. We need to make the break really hard. So, me and a homie of mine recorded guitars and it just worked out, it was magic when we made it. As soon as we heard it, once we recorded it, it was like, that is how the song is going to be. And it turned out to be incredible, so that's all that matters.
