My clothes are Pili’s, I don’t buy them, Pili gets them for free at the little market in my town because now I’m the best in the world, simple. My style references are my grandfather and my father, classy Spaniards with a suit, a good hat and “tracatá.
Today we have the pleasure of having on our exclusive Nora Gouma platform the most extravagant and controversial writer of the music scene. Msb Mario or “El Nino de la Pili” as many know him has broken all records for a writer on the Youtube platform during this year and his videos are recognized for having a crazy and weird technique on camera. To all that, we have to add a huge hat and sunglasses that cover a quiet and mystical personality that is only broken from time to time by some of his controversies, a fact for which he is also known; all this makes the aura of “El Nino de la Pili” a surprise and makes us very happy to share this chat with him.
After publishing a successful novel and placing yourself at the top of the international Spoken Word, how do you classify your art and your persona: singer, writer or artist in general?
I’m Jesus Christ just entering Jerusalem, feet’s bleeding of art. At the same time I’m the best lyric whore in history; no one can bring fragments of text to a catchy music; no one, only Jesus Christ; Amen, next question, go fast I’m in a hurry on the Rush, love.
What goals or dreams are left for MSB Mario after the successes he has achieved?
Dying. Dying is the most complicated poem I’ve ever done, it’s taking me a long time to write; the truth is, I’m already in the denouement, adjusting the “kicks” to a dark rhythm.
What is it like to direct, act and edit all your videos? Aren’t you overwhelmed by so much work? Is it a responsibility?
It’s like f*ck, when you have good technique you’re complete. I f*ck like an angel, so I don’t have the responsibility to provoke orgasms because I know they will come. What a great answer, Nora, I’m the best, you’re lucky, enjoy!
How are you coping with the fact that you are the writer with the most views in history?
Sitting. Sad. Drinking wine. Codeine. And I like to get s*cked sitting down, I call it Folha seca da silla. Nothing has changed, I was already the best before the numbers, I’m a letter man, numbers are not important to me.
Your style is very recognizable. In your last job, 15 fashion magazines from all over the world published your photos. Where do you buy your clothes? Do you have any references in which you look to dress?
My clothes are Pili’s, I don’t buy them, Pili gets them for free at the little market in my town because now I’m the best in the world, simple. My style references are my grandfather and my father, classy Spaniards with a suit, a good hat and “tracatá”.
In interviews with other media you said you weren’t interested in concerts or live shows but we’ve seen you in several well known clubs in Barcelona performing, what has changed?
I needed to renew my catalog of women in the process of showing my suits. It’s a pity not to show them in live, now they’re already world heritage.
Your inspirations in Flamenco and Spanish culture are very noticeable in some of our favorite songs of yours such as “Karmen”, “Robbow” and “Gitano”, can you explain how you came to this music?
I do poetry, not music, and the inspiration comes to Jesus from above when he moves his pen. The melody comes from my father. The lyrics come from my daughter. The passion comes from el Yayo. Amen.
What are your next projects? Can you give us a preview? Do you plan to write again?
Dying in a routinely scripted world is my next project. I’m still enjoying “Andrei Popa” on a 50 year old bearded trash man about to retire, it was a great f*ck, I don’t need to do anything else because earlier I did “Dorme Bu” in 1 minute to snowflake’s dad, if I continue maybe you guys will run out of ass.
How do you manage your daily life after the change in the repercussion of your songs and videos? Does it bother you to be recognized?
Jesus always knew that he would enter Jerusalem barefoot and alone among a crowd of people milling around shouting without knowing that they were shouting to sorrow and sadness. I always knew it. Amen.
In your last Instagram stories we had seen videos where you openly showed drugs, and we also saw the photos of the party where you were held in the arms of two people; do you have anything to say to those who talk about your problems with drugs?
No, I don’t have a problem with drugs; I have a beautiful sentimental relationship in the process of marriage with drugs, pure love and romance, Nora.
Is it true that you use substances daily to create as some media say?
I think today is a beautiful day to tell you that this interview has just ended because you’ve asked me two consecutive questions about drugs when you should be asking me about my art. Love you, Nora.
