i’m always experimenting with new sounds but the next album is mostly my trap-style beats if PHANTOM was Miracle Mile 2 then __ ___ ____ is For I Have Sinned 2
Humzah Mughal@Im_Highly_Trash

@DerekPopeMusic for your new album/songs. Are you bringing back the hip-hop style beats like "Dangerous Enough" or are you going experimental?

@DerekPopeMusic please what are the background vocals in “wrong for me” saying? 😭 I keep looking it up but can’t find the lyrics for that specifically. I love it sooo much but feel like a dummy singing along to it bc I don’t 100% know what it says 😅

I do everything myself except the final mix I work with an engineer remotely I track and pre-mix myself in my own studio, I prefer to work alone I think you get more raw/vulnerable takes that way and I’m not restricted by someone else’s schedule Only project I ever did in an actual studio was Lord Forgive Me I’ve tried going back to mixing myself several times (I originally was going to mix all of PHANTOM) but I’m way too neurotic to mix my albums solo, I would be on version 93 and the album would never come out

@DerekPopeMusic Bro question, I’ve always wondered. Do you track mix and master your own stuff?

never finished them so probably won’t ever be released usually I only scrap a song if it’s not going anywhere and/or I’m not feeling it anymore, I don’t think I’ve ever completely finished a song and then scrapped it
PubbingtonPeter@selfawarepeter

@DerekPopeMusic By scrapped songs do you mean never will be released or will they be like a bonus on the album

not sure when this next album will be out (2026 forsure tho) but I will be dropping snippets / singles a lot earlier than the full release this time this has been the most amount of songs that i’ve started and then scrapped, rn only 6 songs have made the cut

this is the 5th time I’ve re-written this caption, because there’s simply no words that can express how grateful I am for all of you to allow me to do what I love for a living, to trust me with the freedom to create without pressure, to journey with me through emotions we only start to process when we hear them in music, to cry with me one song and feel invincible the next. shit I guess there are words that can express it. you all are the reason I’m still here, and I will give you everything I have until I have nothing left to give. I truly love what I do, and I will never take for granted how lucky I am to be able to do it. the song that launched my career, “us and them”, starts with me singing “for you”, and it has never changed. it has always been, and will always be, for you. 🫶

probably not any time soon with games, gaming has gone back to being my private happy place where I can take a break from the music but there are times I miss it, having the community, I think I would like to figure out a way to do it in the future with more IRL content

@DerekPopeMusic Will you do twitch streams? 🫣

long answer since I get this question a lot: tour is ALWAYS something I want and plan to do. the problem is, it’s just me, I have no team, no big label machine behind me (which is how I like it because I can make whatever I want, and make a living off of making music) it is incredibly expensive to throw your own tour, not to mention a logistics nightmare I went on tour years ago opening up for a big artist, and besides the 20 minutes of euphoria being on stage, the rest was awful. I don’t like travel, I don’t like being in a packed car for hours on end going city to city, I don’t like waiting around all day killing time before the show I’m an artist but also a human, I want to live my life and be happy like you all do, and the happiness is being in my studio making music. creating will always be my favorite part over performing. I can reach parts of the world I’ve never stepped foot in. and when my time comes, I’ll have left the world with as much art as I possibly can. you guys know I don’t market well, I don’t do any of the industry shit. I just make music, make videos, it’s the only thing I’ve ever cared about. but, once this shit blows up, you can bet you’ll see me 🙏

@DerekPopeMusic hello Mr Pope, do you do tours? Europe or such... would love to listen to you in person. <3

no deluxe, everything I made for PHANTOM is what came out. “dangerous enough” almost didn’t make the album, which would’ve been on a deluxe edition towards the end of making PHANTOM i made 2 songs which I knew deserved their own project, so I went right in on the next one
PubbingtonPeter@selfawarepeter

@DerekPopeMusic In the meantime will there be a deluxe or maybe a few extras for Phantom?

@DerekPopeMusic is a lyrical genius. ‘Too much loss I still grieve when I win’ is a BAR, same with ‘God’s hand, devil’s luck.’ I’m a fan for life. Get this man his Grammy.
