Fresh from collaborations with Charli XCX and Sasha Go Hard, 19 year-old Bostonian Joseph Zucco releases his debut mixtape. We asked him to introduce himself.
Who are you?
I’m Joe. Or Jezus. Whatever.
What do you sound like?
I’d say I sound like myself. What do you think I sound like?
Why should we listen to you?
Hmm… I’d say you should listen to me because I’m putting something out there that’s worth listening to and enjoying. But who wouldn’t say that? It’s really up to you.
What have you released so far? What else have you got coming out in the near future?
I’ve released like five songs on SoundCloud. My mixtape’s out now. That’s another five tracks. I’m shooting for a January release of my debut EP.
What song sums you up? Why?
R Kelly’s ‘Ignition’. Or ‘Kickin It With Your Girlfriend’. Any R Kelly song really. Oh and Kate Bush’s Hounds Of Love in its entirety.
What or who is your biggest influence and why?
Everyday shit. The details of small interactions between beings, objects. I don’t know. Philip Glass. Thom Yorke. R Kelly. EMOTIONS.
Where can we hear your music?
Where will you be in five years’ time?
Somewhere on planet earth. New York, Paris, Italy… who knows. Hopefully not in my mom’s basement.
Tell us an interesting fact about yourself.
I’ve listened to Chief Keef’s Back From The Dead 300 times and I can make really good smoothies.
