INTERVIEW: Que the Boy


After a year like 2020, 2021 is all about being free and getting away from feeling stuck, which is exactly what rising rapper QUE THE BOY is all about. The Detroit native recently released his new single 'Stuck', a song he describes as "a conglomerate of stories that I or my friends have been through, and as we were talking, I started writing bits and pieces over time. It was an unorthodox reflection on the different experiences either I or my friends experienced.”


A crossover blend of energetic beats and snappy lyricism, “Stuck” sees Que the Boy get inspired by his and his friends' stories, with his own perseverance to have a flourishing and successful career in the music industry contributing to the song, too. We caught up with Que the Boy and spoke to him about his thriving career so far.

What is it about 'Stuck' that made you want to make it your debut single?

The vibe that “Stuck” gives you makes you want to bounce and let the production take over you. The “sound effects” in the rap cadence makes it unique and catchy

Explain the video concept and the inspiration behind it?

The video is me and my friends vibing to the song because it is a combination of all of our stories. I also wanted the video be colorful and playful to show get a natural vibe of who I am: a goofy, and chill person.
