We caught up with Lucki right after his set at CLOUT Festival 2026 - which was stopped by heavy rain and an emergency evacuation. The Chicago MC took time to chat with us about his latest album "Dr*gs R Bad" and its immediate Billboard success (despite releasing on the same day as Drake's triple album), days of "Alternative Trap" and making mixtapes as Lucki Eck$ with fellow Windy City artist Saba, finding his voice and the differences between each Side of Chicago.

Lucki also spoke on his huge early inspirations - Michael Jackson and Prince, talked about Ken Carson and their throwback pic from 2021, and revealed when we can expect his upcoming Archive Tape... Enjoy!
