Teezo touchdown tyler12/18/2023 “Look at a Lennon, look at a Freddie Mercury, look at Prince.” On Travis Scott’s Utopia, Teezo has one of the most striking guest appearances on an album full of superstars, seeming to channel David Bowie with his vocals on the track “Modern Jam.” “That’s my best frontman voice,” he says. For the full interview, go here for the podcast provider of your choice, listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, or just press play above. On the new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, Teezo talks about making one of the most intriguing and controversial albums of the year, his superstar collaborations, and much more. We have fun, but we also take it very seriously.Teezo has courted praise, bafflement, and criticism by not sounding quite like anyone else, and doing so in features on high-profile albums from Tyler the Creator, Lil Yachty, Travis Scott, and most recently, Drake‘s For All the Dogs. My manager & I even have a rec league team that we are very competitive about. That dude is a wizard.īesides music, what have you been up to in your free time? In addition, the new James Blake album is pretty awesome. The truth is it’s Teezo’s and regardless of my involvement I think it’s one of the most exciting records I’ve heard in a very long time. What's the last album you played in full and really enjoyed, and why did you like it? Yes! They can expect something really soon. You recently made your solo return to music – any other new music coming soon fans can expect? It’s amazing to me how he works so hard and yet he doesn’t force anything. He can sing, rap, and has a natural gift for storytelling. There are so many sides of him and they are all brilliant. I love how Teezo is always taking a risk and he’s never afraid to try something new. Since then, we’ve made a lot of music that we’re both really excited about. From our very first session, when we started working together on his album, we had a really strong musical connection. Katie Welle from Sony actually connected us initially. How did you link up with Teezo for “Crying In My Car?” What do you like about his music? I only slept a few hours, but I couldn’t fall back asleep so I started writing a song in my bed. I just watched the sunrise this morning from my balcony for the first time in a long time. What are you up to right now - describe your surroundings. Watch it below and read on for a conversation with Cole about working with Teezo and upcoming new music. Cole steals a corvette and ends up in a police chase, but after a series of cartoonish events he’s back behind the wheel, this time of the police car. Today, NYLON exclusively premieres the song’s music video, which plays off the track’s waggish energy and finds Cole and Touchdown as parking valets who get up to trouble. It features lyrics that’ll be relatable to any Gen-Z: “Crying in my car all night/ been in bed all day/ I don’t wanna go outside.” While Teezo Touchdown, the Texas native who’s turning heads for his out-there fashion choices and unpredictable song releases, brings a sweet, crooning verse that’s serves as an instructional to how best to cry in your vehicle: “Cut your engine and your lights off and make it dark.” Noted! The cheeky track is a breakaway from the poppy emo of “ Meet Me At Our Spot” and instead bops in breezy, soulful trap that’s indeed perfect for cruising around in your car and crying. Now, after a two-ish year break, Cole is back with new music, releasing three songs earlier this summer including another collaboration that could get huge: “Crying in my Car” with Teezo Touchdown. The Los Angeles singer was releasing music under the name The Anxiety at the time, but has since switched back to using his real name. In 2020, Tyler Cole broke out with his song “Meet Me At Our Spot” with Willow Smith (whom he was also rumored to be dating at the time) after it going wildly viral on TikTok.
