Yesterday, I tweeted \u201cI don\u2019t care if you like my music or not. I do this because I like it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If I don\u2019t feel what I create, how can I expect anyone else to feel \u2014 to be free is to be who you are. That\u2019s pretty much my message. People are inspired to grow when they are comfortable in their own skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>M: In the Miniature Concert session you rocked a really fantastic onesie. What does your creative process look like leading up to a live performance? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Theory Hazit:<\/strong> I got this urge to do something fun and hopefully make somebody laugh. Maybe someone is having a bad day and they come across a video of black man in a onesie rapping and turn the mood completely around.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all about bringing the fun back into it. Each performance has an appearance with a statement, for sure. Every decision and move I make is intentional. I hope that everyone who sees my live show is entertained and encouraged to dig deeper into my art, relax and remember to have a great time living life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>M: What would be your dream collaboration? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Theory Hazit:<\/strong> Honestly, I believe that my dream collaboration has already happened with Redman. Ever since the <em>Vogue Magazine<\/em> placement, I think about doing music with Lana Del Rey. If this were to ever go down, I would definitely have her sing over boombap but also we would experiment with modern left-field, rare grooves and loops. Maybe throw Aesop Rock and Your Old Droog in the mix.<\/p>\n<p><strong>M: Are you working on any new projects we should be on the lookout for? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Theory Hazit: <\/strong>Yes! Right now I am working on an album called <em>DIM<\/em>. All of the production will be by me. I may or may not have special guest on this project. And you\u00a0<em>will<\/em>\u00a0see more of me in a onesie! Follow me on Pinterest! Actually, don\u2019t do that.<\/p>\n<p><iframe data-src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RiexkQIbAfQ?wmode=opaque&amp;enablejsapi=1\" width=\"854\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"sqs-svg-icon--outer social-icon-alignment-center social-icons-color-black social-icons-size-large social-icons-shape-circle social-icons-style-border\">\n<nav class=\"sqs-svg-icon--list\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marmoset presents miniature music concerts \u2014 a series where we invite talented, touring and local&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":64,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3760,16],"tags":[3765],"class_list":["post-63","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artists","category-music","tag-mini-concerts","has-excerpt"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/podcastspotlightthecatchandkillpodcast.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
