An Insightful Chat with Brazilian Phonk Producer Slowboy
What got you into music originally?
I was never good at learning instruments and didn’t think I would pursue anything to do with music. My brother could play drums and guitar since he was young and used to play in bands. He converted to making beats when he got older and I got interested in rapping. So I would occasionally rap over his beats using an online music maker. He tried to get me into producing but I wasn’t too fond of the idea at the beginning. But after a while, I gave it a chance and got my own DAW.
When was the first time you made a song?
Around 4 or 5 years ago I made my first song.
When did you know you were truly blowing up within the space of the “Brazilian Phonk” scene?
It was when I repeatedly started seeing my own song on my FYP on TikTok. The numbers started increasing more than usual and that’s when I kinda knew something had happened. From there people look to me for new Brazilian music a lot of the time, so I love outputting tracks to meet that demand.
What are your plans for the rest of 2023?
My plan is to just continue with what I’m already doing and much more. Collaborate with more unique artists and enjoy the journey as well as traveling and doing shows.
What keeps you motivated and driven?
The support that I’m receiving through messages and comments is something that gets me going and wanting me to make more music that I can share with my listeners. Seeing good reception to new music is always good to see.
