I'd just go out and just be bored and record all of these really, really horrible songs on that. I had this USB-type mic or whatever it was at the time. It's almost like a storybook setting that never leaves your head. We did the whole riding your bike around the cul-de-sac thing, the walking-around-the-trails thing. It was like a block with a lot of people who were around my age, so we all kind of grew up together. I always felt connected to the woods and that whole suburban feel. I remember it being just like a peaceful, safe atmosphere. It was right on the line between Clarksville and Columbia in Howard County. and then my family moved to the Columbia area when I was in elementary school. What was growing up in Columbia like? Were you born in Maryland? These are excerpts from the conversation. With one celebrated single under his belt (along with a 2014 self-released EP called "Zebra"), the singer/songwriter took our phone call at his Los Angeles apartment last week to discuss growing up in the suburbs, writing "Weight in Gold" and more.

It was Beats 1's first "World Exclusive," a daily spotlight for an up-and-coming artist to be heard all around the world.
