Rapper Bill$ on Detroit Culture, Music, and Overcoming Loss and Grief

Join host Sommer Hill as she sits down with rapper Bill$, a Detroit native who opens up about his upbringing in the vibrant, flashy culture of his hometown. Bill$ shares the profound impact of losing his mother and grandmother, and how stepping into the role of "man of the house" has shaped his perspective on life and death. Despite the struggles, he’s fueled by a desire to support his family and finds solace in their support.


Bill$ also talks about his transition from DJing to making music during the COVID-19 pandemic, the challenges of marketing his work, and the importance of honest feedback. He reveals his discomfort with recording in front of others and how Detroit's raw music scene influences his style.
