Travie McCoy | Gym Class Heroes are back, Papercut Chronicles, Billionaire, Bruno, Addiction, Sia

Описание: Episode 86: Travie McCoy.

You likely know Travie as the lead singer of Gym Class Heroes, the multi-platinum genre bending band behind a generation of hits. His first solo single, Billionaire featuring Bruno Mars, was the track that launched Bruno into stardom. He’s also collaborated with Sia, Ryan Tedder, Adam Levine, Tyga, and many more.

Now, 20 years after the release of The Papercut Chronicles, Gym Class Heroes are officially back.

This is a three and a half hour deep dive with Travie McCoy. We talk about the rise of Gym Class Heroes and how they made it, his solo career and what it was like stepping out on his own, the story behind Billionaire and working with Bruno Mars, and his collaborations with Sia, Ryan Tedder, and Adam Levine. Travie opens up about the lessons he’s learned along the way, what it took to overcome addiction, and shares so many fun and inspiring stories from his journey. We also get into what’s next with the return of Gym Class Heroes.
An honest, inspiring, and fun conversation with one of the most creative frontmen of the Warped Tour generations. Let's go!
