Yung Lean: the Party is Officially Over
Summary
Yung Lean declares the party is officially over. The Swedish rapper tells Kareem he's been sober for 366 days, done with "lying and puking all the time." His prescription for society? Romanticize settling down, finding God, learning woodcarving, maybe moving into a cave to "get into the ground of things." He's traded self-absorbed psychopath energy for gratitude and generosity. You can still get freaky and eccentric, he insists, but it's time to make having a girlfriend cool again, to focus on love and simple things. Brotherly love is underrated. Also, Martha Stewart apparently has a reptile living in her brain.

So what's your take? The party is officially over. 100% agree. The party is over. Yes, we're done. We did too much. I think so. I think the the sheer didd of things she didd, the sheer didd of it all to heights that are no longer like fine. God bro, yeah yeah. No, we need—I think we need to make it cool again to, you know, have a girlfriend, have a boyfriend, whatever. Settle down, create a family, do simple, learn how to do wood carving, find God. There's only one. There are no reason—there's just human race and there's one God. There's one God. He goes by—it's just God. I think I think we need to focus on real things and love. Fe, I've been sober now for 366 days.
Really? And yeah, congratulations. That's incredible. Thank you. That's awesome.
What made you change? Just lying and puking all the time. It's not sexy anymore. We need to romanticize like proper good things.
Yeah, like move into the suburbs? Yeah, move to the desert, get a couple kids, move into a cave, stay in the city, move into a cave. Yes.
Why are we moving into the caves? Get into the ground of things. Oh, be one with the Earth.
Yeah, be one with the Earth. You can still get freaky. You can still be eccentric. You can still have fun, but we just gotta romanticize other things, you know? I get with this pretty guy. Yeah, you know, sometimes you can have a little bit of this, a little bit of that. Yeah, you know, you still should do things that make you feel good.
Yeah, exactly. But I think romanticizing a simple nice life that's filled with love, filled with gratitude, filled with generosity—yes, as opposed to being a self-absorbed psychopath, Diddy having free cops at the crib. Yes. Brotherly love is underrated. You heard it here first.
Anything else? Uh, yeah. Martha Stewart has a reptile living in her brain.
