Full circle moment writing my first print @SPIN cover story on @SwaeLee 🤘

This one means a lot to me. I grew up reading SPIN, became editor-in-chief in 2018, and exited with its sale in 2020

We put artists like Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, Ty Dolla $ign and Avicii on the cover, tal then

As proud as I am of those covers, I always wished you could walk into a store and pick one up

Well, now you can

Swae Lee is a force of nature. He went from sleeping in an abandoned house in Tupelo to making “Sunflower,” the first double diamond single in history

We talked about coming up with his brother, becoming a father, and why his solo debut took a decade. He’s sitting on 50,000 unreleased songs, and he’s just getting started

Getting to work with SPIN founder Bob Guccione, Jr. on this one made it even more special

Thank you to everyone who made it happen, and to Swae for sharing his story with me
