Can you tell us about yourself? Who is Remy Baggins?

I’m a god, to put it simply lol. I consider myself to be a very straightforward man. Good music, films, TV shows, anime, stand-up comedy, and Pringles are all things I adore. Charm eet.

We all know you as a badass producer and songwriter, can you tell us about how you started making music?

I saw an Eminem video on TV called “Not Afraid,” and that’s when I started making songs. But I’ve been a “musician” my entire life. Since I’ve played instruments since I was little, that song was a challenge to me because it seemed like something I could compose and produce. I thus began writing lyrics, purchased FL Studio, began producing beats, and began giving performances. and now here we are.

Can you recall the music you listened to while growing up? Do you think it has influenced your choice of music in any way?

Michael Jackson, Toni Braxton, Tina Turner, Mariah Carey, Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker, King Sunny Ade, and Yanni were among the artists that my dad frequently played. My music is influenced by both Michael Jackson and Yanni.

It’s easy to see music means a lot to you. Can you tell us how music feels—your personal experience with music? We’d love to hear about that.

Omo. It is a manner of being. It’s my fictitious companion. It’s counseling. Even though I’m a man of few words, when it comes to singing, I scarcely hold back. It’s a way out, I suppose. I don’t believe there is an ideal response to this.

So, let’s dig deeper still, what kind of music do you think you make?

I create whatever comes to mind. My current playlist dictates what I’m making, which is dictated by how I’m feeling at the moment. Thus, everything depends on how I’m feeling. Although R&B/Soul is my specialty, that’s simply one of my moods. When listeners notice my “new music” alerts, I believe they should be open-minded.

It’s been 4 years since you introduced yourself to us with the beautiful VIV. What did that project do for you as a creative?

To start with, I got into a lot of difficulty at home since my parents didn’t like that it was in the media. Despite that, I gained a lot of attention and became recognized as an artist because previously, people had only known me as a producer.

With 2 EPs and 2 albums out after VIV, tell us about your experience in the industry so far.

It’s two LPs and three EPs. Man, what a roller coaster it’s been. I’ve formed families, lost friends, celebrated victories, and taken Ls. There is always a learning curve. The streets are rough, dude. Not for the timid.

Talking about your new project, Amaterasu, tell us what motivated you to bring out the rapper in you.

That component has always been there since I was a rapper first. Rap seemed to be the most appropriate medium for expressing the stories and emotions I wanted to share.

On “808 Therapy”, you talked about your idol telling your friend you would never blow. How do you deal with criticism and negative energy as a budding artist?

I take criticism in stride. I’m my worst critic because I tend to overthink things and become a little bit of a perfectionist. I always make sure to get feedback from a few of my trusted guys before releasing anything so I can make any required adjustments. When it comes to negative energy, I try to recognize it as soon as I can and avoid it. (The Bullshit Sniffer is my superhero name 💀)

Your projects are named after Anime words; what’s your top 5 anime?
