In this fiery conversation, Huggy Duzit opens up about his evolution from tree-climbing childhood in Southern California to becoming a voice of underground hip-hop grounded in genuine experience. He talks about the importance of releasing music consistently—he mentions writing a verse every single day for eight years—as a way to shift perceptions from "someone trying music out" to "someone who does music." One segment stands out: the project titled Orphan emerges from profound personal loss, fractured family relationships, and the vow to let art be the vehicle for healing and connection.

Beyond the craft, Huggy shares insight into modern content creation—how visuals and character create engagement within seconds, and how marketing isn’t just an add-on but a thoughtful part of the process, such as his idea of pairing an album with incense or exclusive platform drops. Although I did not find direct commentary in the wider community about his story, platforms like Glasp champion themes such as consistency and creative self-documentation, which align with Huggy’s approach of daily output and personal authenticity.
