In this interview, Arshan linked up with Nate Sib in LA for a rare conversation to discuss everything from growing up in East LA and going to elementary school with 2hollis to finding early success with posting videos of him singing and playing the piano online to his journey with sobriety. This interview took place amidst the second leg of his tour with 2hollis and finds Nate gearing up to add his first album to his short discography with some production help from kimj, 2hollis, Loukeman, & Jonah Abraham.
In their conversation, they discuss everything from growing up in a creative family with a dad who is a stand-up comedian, make-up artist mom, and sister who is a photographer and videographer who has actually directed a few of Nate’s music videos. Nate also talked about his mood board and influences that ranged from Justin Bieber, Future, Trap Nation YouTube channel, SOPHIE, to Hannah Diamond, his tight-knit friend group known as Boylife, and how he categorizes his music as Distorted Pop and not liking being boxed in genres like Hyperpop.
