Interview: Dani Twice - Stupid bet

After his conscious hip hop single “Jump”, now Dani Twice invites us to make a “Stupid bet” on this lighthearted nostalgic melody with a nocturnal and innocent chord progression in which Dani’s vocals encompass a melodic yet very rhythmic delivery with a subdued tone that conveys the feeling of being fed up and in the midst of needing a wakeup call. The infectious chorus repeats “I really need to wake up”. Who made the Stupid Bet? The chorus says they both did and Dani dives into the first verse painting the picture a diligent people pleaser that did everything and anything to make his partner happy.

Hey Dani Twice, super nice to have the chance to chat with you. What first got you into music?

Hey Kamil, I began making music with my video camera as a teenager to express how I felt after my first breakup.

Who would you most like to collaborate with?

My number one pick would be Kendrick Lamar, there's an amount of heart and mastery that I feelI would strive to live up to in a project with him, I would know my career would be fulfilled if I collaborated with Kdot

Your latest song is 'Stupid bet'. Can you tell us more about the making of it and if there were any unusual things happening during the process?

I wrote and produced this song before my current long term relationship and when we broke up for a month I rewrote it to fit my new relationship, although my girlfriend really likes this song she doesn't like I initially wrote it about someone else haha

What are you focussing on right now?

releasing my album "9ATO" single by single

What makes you the happiest?

Pushing through my limits and living in freedom and love

What is the biggest challenge of being an artist?

Seeing your creations be subject to the outside world, it's tough to balance your mental health when you pour so much of yourself into these intangible things that become part of people's life experiences that you'll never get to see

How do you structure your day?

I oversleep, talk to my girlfriend a lot and work as an animator and when I can, I make music and promote it

Do you have any hobbies or interests outside of music?

I like digital art, I've loved drawing and animating and everything that has to do with film and creating stories

Do you sing in the shower? What songs?

anything by JSMN

What are your plans for the future?

I'm releasing the 5th song of the album, an absolute banger called BAG MAN!
