“Everything” was made in 2022. I loved the “Sunflower’’ song (by Post Malone and Swae Lee) a lot. I wanted to do something similar to that. When I make songs with Blaze (the
producer), sometimes we start from scratch. That’s how we made “Kolomental.” I just play him certain chord progressions, and I tell him what direction I want to go towards.
We didn’t have an idea of what we were going to make that day, but we started playing the chords and building from there. We made the song, but we didn’t have the sample on.
When I got to London, I told Hoodini (additional producer) that we could have the sample on because the song didn’t have a second verse. Hoodini and I just chopped it off. At
the time, we were just doing it for fun because we didn’t know that we could eventually clear the sample. At the time, “Sunflower” had just gone 11 times Platinum, so it was
a big deal, but at the end of the day, we did it, and I think it just had to do with believing.
