#OGM #Veeze #OurGenerationMusic 

Donning a custom embroidered Atlanta Braves baseball cap full of patches that either salute Gunna's Drip Season 3 album or spell out "Free YSL," Veeze is posed a question by OGM host Hakeem Rowe that would probably take a lot of hubris to conjure up an answer for: "What do you feel like it is about you where people f**k with Veeze so much?"

However, being the humble, nose-to-the-ground artist that he is, the Detroit native reeks of humility as he responds, “I would want you to ask them that.”

Some of the people that Hakeem is referring to are the biggest hip-hop artists in the entire genre in 2022, such as Lil Baby, Lil Yachty and most importantly, his Detroit brethren, Babyface Ray. For much of Veeze's rise, he has been what many would call a right hand man to these figures. But now, as he and Face's patented Detroit style rap continues to capture the hearts of the hip-hop community and attract mainstream appeal, Veeze is ready to turn it up a notch.

Now with all the tools necessary to be a dominant artist for years to come, the 7 Mile native will be looking to take the next step in his career with Ganger. As he prepares for this new era, Veeze's exclusive interview with Hakeem touched on many of these topics and more, such as being in Lil Baby's "Heyy" promotional video, why he seldom does interviews, making the "Gallery Dept." music video, the obscure references in Detroit rap and his musical influences.
