Instead of him being labelled as a "Toxic" artist, I would say his music is humbling in a way. Such as calling out the ugly of romance, and not the fairytale stuff media pushes currently. He just has raw talent, and crafts it into masterpieces that show the 'glamour' and the 'distasteful' things a relationship can come with and being famous as well.

[@chaynaenid2454]

No but sonder son album is top tier & im upset it’s not shown enough love and recognition. His songs & storytelling is so real and raw

[@lishaaxx]

THIS

[@chaynaenid2454]

The way the songs transition throughout the whole album? It was amazing. I feel like he should’ve went viral from THAT album. but I’m glad he’s getting recognition and sm more love now.

[@brittlia_]

I 1000% agree!! I was a fan of that album when it released back in 2017, before he blew up. I hate how it didn’t get the recognition it deserved. Wayyyyyy better than his recent album in my opinion!

[@crishonnaowens4987]

I honestly feel like he isn’t know a lo because he haven’t took those steps to become one of the big artists and by that I mean selling his soul, or sacrifices yet

[@nia-yl7lq]

Not the prescription glasses…..he look good tf 😂 On a serious note, he’s very articulate and intelligent. I get his honesty when it comes to his relationships and it has me thinking about how to approach men who think like this. Not that what he’s saying is bad, just making me more mindful. I cant wait to see a diversified Brent at 37 lmaooo

[@Zellymackintosh]

Just gotta be willing to accept being an option 😂😂😂 thats all

[@ae6112]

Damn maybe that nigga wearing them glasses cuz he cant see 😂😂 he did say he’s independent

[@courtlingaddis675]

What glasses are those

[@sky.thomas]

I like how in this interview he’s really taking the time to speak about his craft and his buisness life

[@honeylala9906]

Brent is a real one! Y’all can say it’s toxic , it’s really relatable & different for R&B.

[@cris_here]

He can be toxic that doesn't take away his contribution for rnb

[@honeylala9906]

@@cris_here it’s real not toxic. Everybody ain’t always IN LOVE. And that’s why I love his music

[@honeylala9906]

@@jesterbons1558 I feel his music if anything. Toxic is playing with people who don’t want to play. To me Brent keep it a hunnit and women love it

[@alayza9303]

i love her interview style, its so genuine and it feels like two friends talking

[@jamrockkingmusic5070]

Why doesn’t anyone ever ask him how he learned how to sing

[@ninamosley]

good question! because all he has said is he was a rapper first and his manager told him to sing but you don't just start singing out of no where and sound good lol.

[@MultiAugust10]

Would Like to Know for real his live performance is not giving. He can't sing it's so monotonous where his singing background from. A melodic beat is good the vocals still has to give.

[@vonthegreat870]

@@MultiAugust10 he don’t even like to sing lmao

[@anthonymalcolmcalan]

A man that's honest, straightforward, and sets boundaries is toxic nowadays. Y'all can say "oh no we don't think that" on the internet, but in practice y'all do. Men get called toxic simply for standing up for themselves, it is what it is

[@nehemiahnamaga2612]

He is GOATED for going independent Protect this man at ALL cost he layin down the foundation for reforming the music industry for the better of black artist

[@jaxontye5134]

Artists* this shit transcends race.. paving the way for ALL HUMANS.

[@MultiAugust10]

I agree once you hit 25 y.o you have start looking at life differently. You can still have fun with purpose you can't be wildin' out like your early years.

[@dmon_5]

Very true, just turned 26 couple days ago and been reflecting on this for months.

[@mmaya772]

25 is the exact age I started changing tremendously without even realizing it.*

[@SlaykiaLIVE]

He’s so handsome it’s ridiculous 😂❤

[@FaisalMalik]

Angie Martinez been the GOAT. I love how she executes her conversations 🏆

[@salinajohn370]

I got on his music way to late and Im obsessed. I hope he continues to be creative and drop some dope music.

[@reillya.733]

angie is such a good interviewer, she makes it so natural and shes so beautiful! its the first interview ive ever seen with brent faiyaz where the interviewer is not fawning over him

[@JackieDelon]

It’s the natural hair , glasses for me 😢😭😍

[@verda_renee]

Sheesh the way I'm crushing on this man. Intelligent. Articulate. Driven. Talented. And he looking good asf with this lil ponytail and glasses conbo. Lordt! I guess this makes me toxic too 😭

[@earth2demi495]

He’s authentic,himself and this is his mindset for the current time in his life. I respect his honesty. Toxic is when you hide and lie, if you are upfront that person has the decision to continue or see they don’t align.

[@yourfavex8463]

i love his laugh ☺️ he seems like such a genuine and real person

[@chasamerson8500]

Mind so mature experience so naive. He’s detached as hell but communicates his expectations….. so it’s really on you lol

[@amayajackson3066]

I love this man so much such a huge inspiration not even just the music his spirit is phenomenal.

[@taylorstep8135]

thank the lord that Brent has a good manager who stopped him from a bad deal Brent talked about this years ago on a vice interview when "crew" started blowing up.

[@tjemilua3724]

Not wanting to settle down and having multiple long term consensual partners doesn’t make him toxic 😂. It’s only “toxic” seeming to the new girls that he gets with who start wanting him to change for them or demand things early like they have long history lol

[@hefeguwop]

this is the one thank you for this 😭

[@Mariah-co2ct]

Brent is my favorite all time artist, it was cool to see his personality and hear him talk ❤

[@laurynnazjhey9005]

It’s literally like having a regular convo with a homie. He’s too cool! I never even knew how he looked.. & he gives that he’s from Chicago but I have fam in Maryland.. makes sense. He has a Chicago vibe though❤️. He is also cute!

Loved this interview… the maturity in him yesss BRENT focus and everything will go as it should …. One thing though u have to work with H.E.R. ❤

[@Lay_Lay208]

I love 💕 him 😍🥰. I don’t get toxic from him. He lives in a way that is comfortable for him. If all of those women are cool with him doing that then there is nothing toxic about it.

[@mantaanafm]

people don’t know the difference between toxic and honest

[@leiacaston1531]

Toxic or not I love me some Brent.

[@chenecediandra85]

Thank You for the INSPIRATION!!! ✌🏾💚🧘🏾‍♀️

[@jeandidieryao8840]

Why is it toxic to be honest? is it better to lie to a person and make them believe you are committed but really you are doing dirt. I don't see anything toxic here. The women know what it is and they are fine with the terms.

[@ianmaxlm]

Angie the best interviewer the culture got. I always go back the j Cole one she referenced.

[@niahbell7138]

Great Interview. I love this more sober more mature Brent ❤ and his voice is slightly more angelic here🔥

I think it's funny when he dislikes the word toxic and deflects from it. Everything about his romantic life shows otherwise 😂

Aren’t toxic people manipulative and dishonest by rule? He’s damn honest. The things he’s honest about aren’t nice things but he isn’t playing any of these women. He’s honest. Don’t think that’s toxic

@@ar39666 women can’t handle the truth and anytning that doesn’t n go with what they like or want you to be is toxic

[@amazingjay3957]

Not exactly his personal life seems to be honest more than toxic based off his words, while the music is his toxic/honest words out in a song. Plus Wasteland is also exaggerated as he says

[@cris_here]

@@ar39666 how we know he's being honest? I've seen conversation receipts of women he's dated and he's not a slick or nice dude.

I feel him with not letting going to the label as the main goal. It was a option that didnt make sense. 🔥🤦🏽‍♂️🔥

[@zoezanyoh_]

I love him soooo much.

[@dakotac180]

He sounds like every single guy in their 20s nowadays, I get he's in the business so obviously he isn't guna settle down right now, he definitely has never been in love to keep running around. All we hear is, can't commit, gets bored, doesn't like the process of getting to know someone, very inconsistent.

[@grownupcaillou2685]

Do you believe men are designed biologically to want more women or to stay with one women for the rest of their life?

[@KatVlahovic]

this is funny asf I’m thinking the same

[@c0rxpseb0i13]

Exactly like if I get with a girl if I’m not trying to be in a relationship I’m going to be real with them and make sure we’re on the same page but I’m not gonna lead them on because that’s fucked up to do to somebody.. But he’s a RnB dude (or rap idk just found this suggested)and girls love that and they love men who don’t care

He said “I got prescription glasses and shit”😂
