"If Vince Staples wasn’t an artist, he’d be a boxer. He weaves his way through conversations with gentle jabs at the industry and its obligations, then lands haymakers about trusting his intuition. This may sound violent to some Karens, but he’s a gentle sparring partner who opens up about the cheat codes of his songs, the random places his Instagram algorithm sends him, and what it’s like being a troll. You don't think Vince Staples is nice? Then you'd better ask his mom. And check him out his nice looks in this shoot by photographer Sandy Kim and styled by Corey Stokes."
