interview 1 (APRIL 4TH 2025)

justloveJB: when did you start writing songs/making music?

Aleeyaj: somewhere around 2021/2022, i only wrote songs in my notebooks, since i got very inspired by my own poetry, and my mom's own. i had nothing better to do, so i started making up bands in my bedroom and the first, i believe, was an alt punk band named In Nasty.

justloveJB: nice, nice. and how many bands have you created in total, if you know the amount?

Aleeyaj: i really dunno the EXACT amount, but i could say like in the over 50 to 60 bracket, since it's been about 3-4 years.

justloveJB: daaang! that's crazy. and cool. what kinds of things do you like to do?

Aleeyaj: i know! thanks! i like to draw, read horror novels, I WORSHIP STEPHEN KING! or i go on here (on genius) and write songs either for myself and my made-up bands.

justloveJB: omg. I KNOW SOMEONE WHO LOVES STEPHEN KING, TOO!! not me unfortunately lol
anyways, what is your go to music genre/artist when you've had a rough day?

Aleeyaj: oh, yeah, usually when i had a bad day, i normally go to my gf/wife (jeri)'s playlists on spotify and listen to them (she likes some of the same stuff that i do), bc they remind me of her and it always puts a smile on my face.

justloveJB: yeah, that makes sense. i actually have a playlist of songs that make me thing of my bf, haha. sooo what is your current favorite song?

Aleeyaj: oop, that's a kinda hard answer, my fav songs usually fluctuate a lot bc of my autism and i get obsessed a lot with different bands and artist (tyler the creator, my one true love), but i guess it would either be "tamale" by tyler the creator or "transylvania" (by tyler, again)

justloveJB: that's so real 😅 i'm running out of questions lol ngl
what's your favorite color i guess??

Aleeyaj: nah, it's good, sissy! i guess i like yellow?

justloveJB: pov im listening to japanese covers of popular songs by iconic divas like Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter 😅
what about your favorite animal, if you have one?

Aleeyaj: so real tho, anyway, i used to like killer whales when i was little, idk why but i guess it was bc it was black and white and they looked cute to me. but i like red cardinal birds, since they look so pretty to me, especially the female ones.

justloveJB: nice, my favorite animal is a harbor seal/harp seal/ringed seal. i literally can't think of any other questions lol
