On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ricky Hil.
As the son of famed designer Tommy Hilfiger, Hil has been tasked to carve out his own space within music and culture. He turned to emo rap in the 2010s, creating a murky sound that helped to influence GothBoiClique — namely Lil Peep. The duo even made a couple of songs together, which remain unreleased.
In a conversation with Madden, the rapper explores his lifelong relationship with music and fashion, the complex process of self-realization, and the work ethic he learned from his father.
Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the episode over at Veeps.
