“I was studying debut albums and wanting to make an impact. I think you can hear how grandiose it is but at the end of the day it’s just album number one. It’s a snapshot to where I was from when I discovered music all the way up until when I was like this is the album. It was about making that first impression, extending my hand and saying: I’m Teezo Touchdown.”

With last year’s debut album How Do You Sleep At Night? greeted by ardent critical acclaim, a features list that boasts Drake, Travis Scott and Tyler, the Creator, and an incepting headline tour forthcoming, Teezo Touchdown is well on his way to global stardom. He may look like no one else and sound like no one else, but at the core, he is a champion of the people. Covering our Spring 24 issue wearing HUGO BLUE, he talks fear, learning from the industry’s finest, and his seminal new record.
