ShelfMAG: What’s your ATL anthem?  

@BUGAntman: “A-Town" by Lil Baby. It's the first song on my itunes so it always comes on first and puts me in the right headspace

ShelfMAG: If you could trade places with any fictional character who would it be and why?

@BUGAntman: Finn from Adventure Time, I always loved him. He's the only human in a strange world and still fights for peace and love

ShelfMAG: What’s the first song you’re playing in the car if you’re on aux? 

@BUGAntman: I love bumping my unreleased shit in the car, it helps me evaluate my music and how it's structured. If I'm just chilling though I put on some Cruza, they're smooth as hell 

ShelfMAG: Who was the last musical artist you changed your mind about and why?
@BUGAntman: Jorjiana is fire. She's not a gimmick rapper like some people think, she's got bars and can really flow. Definitely underrated

ShelfMAG: What item on your shelf is most likely to stay there forever? 

@BUGAntman: Definitely the brown paper bag, it represents the key themes in my upcoming project like overcoming self-doubt and finding myself through creativity
