Open Space: Tracy | Mass Appeal

"I came a long way," said Tracy, a member of the Gothboiclique, when he stopped by MASS APPEAL HQ for an Open Space interview. The son of Ishmael Butler (of Digable Planets and Shabazz Palaces fame) and Coko Clemons of the '90s R&B trio SWV, young Jazz Butler blazed his own trail through life and music. "When I was young I just felt like there was some shit missing," he recalls. "So I just decided to just go do my own shit. I started making music when I had left home, and that shit just started picking up. And then I had moved to L.A. when I was 18 and my parents didn't even know." After recording under various aliases-Yung Bruh, Yunng Karma, Souljahwitch and Tracy Minaj-he adopted his best known rap name basically at random. "My homie had an old-ass jersey he didn't want no more," Tracy recalls. "I was like 'I'm Lil Tracy' and everybody just ate that shit up for some reason." These days he has dropped the Lil from his name. "It's just Tracy," he deadpans. "Or Tracy Minaj." Tracy collaborated extensively with the late Lil Peep, recording tracks like "Awful Things," the song that charted after Peep's tragic death last year. "When me and Peep would record, he would just be like so dangerously high," says Tracy. "It was just crazy to be that high and actually doing the thing at the same time." Tracy took a hiatus from the studio following Peep's passing, but has recently gotten back to work. And after living a nomadic life for years, he plans to move into his first apartment today. "I'm about to start working on my album," he says. "I just wanna do everything that I been doing, basically. Just fuckin' around with different sounds. I wanna work with a few different artists. Like Young Thug. I feel like that would be dope." Check the new Open Space right now.
