Vince Staples logged on to the r/hiphopheads subreddit to let his fans quiz him on anything and everything to promote his album Big Fish Theory, which is set to drop on June 23.
Fans wasted no time getting to the more savage questions, getting right to the point with: “Be honest with me, how little do you want to be here doing this.” Vince didn’t mess around either, writing back “Lol you feel me.”
Meet Karl
Vince kept his answers short, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t learn anything from the AMA. For example, we learned that the fish on the cover of Big Fish Theory is called Karl.

His Favorite Song
He also revealed that his favorite song is Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” and when asked about working with Damon Albarn (the lead singer of Blur and Gorillaz) he said, “That’s my crip.”
Fans didn’t seem all that interested in asking about Vince’s new music, but the questions they did ask turned up some amazing answers. Asked about his favorite romantic comedy, Vince came back with: “500 Days of Summer, I like watching white people struggle through life.”
