Pusha T Speaks on Writing His First Rap and Connecting with Fans

Pusha T sat down with Boost Mobile for their new Be Heard session. Always with the dope insight, Pusha recalled writing his first rap, for a song called “Thief of the Night,” after seeing his older brother No Malice rap with Timbaland and Pharrell in middle school (Malice would then encourage Pusha to form a duo with him… and we all know how that story unfolds), spoke on how “fulfilling” it is to see a fan have the same connection with his rhymes as he does, and emphasized the importance of social media. Pusha then spit his second verse from “Doesn’t Matter” a capella style.

Pusha T’s new mixtape, Wrath of Caine, is out now, while his debut solo album, My Name Is My Name, is expected to arrive in May.
