Following his performance at SummerStage in Central Park last Sunday (July 7), Mr Eazi swung by Hot97 to talk about breaking the U.S, his EmPawa Foundation and touring with J Balvin.
During his interview with Ebro, Eazi spoke about the reality of being a supporting act in comparison to headlining his own shows. Since November 2018 Mr Eazi has been on tour with J. Balvin across North America including twenty dates of Balvin’s 27-City arena tour. He explained “so this is how people feel when they open for me, […] and then Balvin would come out and watch me perform”.
Mr Eazi discussed the importance of giving back to Africa which led him to creating the Empawa Foundation. The foundation encourages aspiring African artists to make their own music and career, equipping them with industry knowledge, video funding and distribution.
New music by Mr Eazi is set to drop next week on the 26th of July in collaboration with Juls.
