And it’s interesting how now you’re playing more with bands and with singers. You know, you’ve got keys on stage. Was it easier to play with just a PA before? Tyler: Well I’ve always wanted to do what I’m doing now, but I was kind of scared and reluctant because my voice is so deep — I always hated it. I always wanted to sing but I sucked at it so I never really did it. And I didn’t take piano lessons, so the way that I taught myself is kind of wrong so playing on stage in front of people is still kind of scary but, you know, being so young with so much energy, it was like, &#34;Oh I can’t go all the way with the pretty shit so let me just jump around and yell on stage to cover up that insecurity.&#34; Over the years, I’ve just kind of been like, &#34;Fuck it.&#34; And just kind of got more comfortable with singing and having more stuff on stage, and having more instruments and rapping less. Cos that’s what I always wanted to do is rap less. But I know that people low-key didn’t want to hear that shit so I had to segue them into listening to the hooks with the singers and shit like that. - Moderator: @zacbayly | Words: @hm0rgz</a></p> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A post shared by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/oystermagazine/" style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px;" target="_blank"> Oyster Magazine</a> (@oystermagazine) on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2018-06-17T10:48:47+00:00">Jun 17, 2018 at 3:48am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async defer src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>
