The FADER: Were you friends before working together? How did you link up here?
SIIICKBRAIN: We followed each other. We hadn't hung out.
Fetish: I was living in Atlanta at the time. We started talking and she sent me an open verse and I was like, "Oh, that's really cool." I just did it the same day. Now we both live in LA now, we're really close.
SIIICKBRAIN: My gal. I love how you brought such a different vibe to the song. The style of writing that you have is like so fire and so off the cuff. When I write I'm like a little bit more of an over thinker.

Fetish: You're very poetic. You use a lot of analogies and shit. I’m very straightforward.
What do you both look for in a collaborator, or rather don't look for in a collaborator?
Fetish: I don't look for meN. I guess straight men. I just look for similarities, but not so similar where it makes too much sense, because I do like juxtaposition. [If they’re too similar] I’d just collab with my fucking self.
Do you guys have similar style inspirations?
Fetish: I'm not a fashion girly. I just throw shit on and it happens to look fucking cool. I don't know anything about fashion. But we were talking and [Siiickbrain] was wearing these slippers. I was like, "Oh, I have the same slippers." And she was like, "Oh yeah, I think all the same brands send us shit.”
SIIICKBRAIN: We live in that same alternative aesthetic vibe. We both are covered in tattoos and are artsy.
