Lil Kloud is one of the latest and greatest rappers to come out of his Hometown. The Holly Springs, Mississippi – Memphis, Tennessee rapper made his official debut in 2021 and since then, has only continued to grow in popularity—reaching millions of fans across streaming platforms and earning a coveted spot on HipHopSince1987.com in 2022. Now, he’s fresh off of releasing his new single “2 Glocks Shawty” . He says he’s not worried about the 21 Savage sounds alike comparisons stating “It is what is is, it’s how I talk, I’m not forcing you to listen to my music”
WHAT INSPIRED “2 Glock Shawty”?
It’s part of a project im working on called “Max Payne”. He carries 2 Glocks so I always thought that was it.
TAKE ME THROUGH MAKING “2 Glock Shawty.” WHAT WAS YOUR PROCESS LIKE FOR THIS SINGLE?
I was mad as fuck when I made “2 Glock Shawty” I’m not gonna lie. Some dude had made comment on my Snapchat post and it pissed me off.
WHAT DO YOU HOPE THAT YOUR FANS TAKE AWAY FROM THIS SINGLE?
I just want them to have fun with it. That’s it, I want them to know this is me and I’m not a 21 Savage sound alike.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO NAME THE PROJECT MAX PAYNE?
I got the idea way back in the day and It’s basically because of how ruthless Max Payne was like he didn’t give a fuck till he got the answers he was looking for.
WHAT ABOUT THE ALBUM’S OTHER SINGLES? ARE YOU PUTTING OUT ANOTHER SINGLE FROM THE PROJECT?
No, well I don’t know I might, I’m still debating I got the project pretty much finished.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE SONG ON THE PROJECT, THATS UNRELEASED?
I got this one song called “Glock On My Hip” it’s like a remix to “2 Glock Shawty.
OKAY, NOW TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOUR MUSIC, HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?
I don’t really have a style, I just go with what I feel at that moment and go from there, I guess.
How do you put words to paper? What’s your creative process like?
I don’t really have a writing process so I don’t really put words on paper, I go off the top of my head. If I do write it’s probably a hook or something in that nature.
If you could perform anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?
I guess I’ll have to say the United Kingdom, only because that’s where most of my streams comes from.
Who are your biggest musical influences? Would you say you’re at all like them?
Lil B And Soulja Boy, we kinda have the same style far as beat selection and concepts.
Okay, If you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
Soulja Boy, he knows the formula he’s been relevant since I was in middle school, it’s crazy how he stayed relevant.
WHEN YOU’RE NOT DOING MUSIC, WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO?
I like to travel, I’m always going somewhere like I can’t sit still, I’ve literally been on 4 vacations this year alone.

I don’t know, that’s a good question, I eat hella rice and beans and alotta fish. I love fish.
YOU MENTIONED YOU LIKE TO TRAVEL EARLIER, WHATS YOUR FAVORITE PLACE TO TRAVEL?
New Zealand and Australia it’s literally like another world there. I think Iggy Azalea is from there.
ANY PLACE YOU WOULD’NT TRAVEL TO?
Mexico, they cut off people’s heads, I’m good on all that.
IS THERE ANY CELEBRITY YOU’D LIKE TO DATE?
Nah, I feel like 2 famous people is too much drama, plus the schedules might not line up and all this other stuff. No I’m good. No celebrity crushes this way.
WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS IN MUSIC?
I just want a solid stable cult fan base that’s it. Like the ones who been with me since I started know what I mean.
