Booker and Stryker welcomed Billie Eilish to their show on alt 987 and Iheart media. Billie shared why she wanted to release her new album "Hit Me Hard and Soft" all at once with no singles before the actual release date. Booker and Stryker and Billie chatted about the beautiful strings on the album and how they came to life. Billie tells the guys about the song "Lunch" and how she really went for it! She also talked about singing her verses on the songs hundreds of times in the studio to make sure it sounded exactly how she wanted! We love the new album and appreciate Billie Eilish and Fineas so much!

I lLOVE that she can be so comfortable not answering certain questions or even teasing the hosts. I hope this generation of popstars continues to experience that kind of freedom, especially in comparison to the invasive/inappropriate journalism of the 2000s and even much of the 2010s.

@billyalarie929 15 күн бұрын

Yeah, I’ve been thinking about this SINCE around then, like “I wish these people felt empowered to just be like ‘ok I’m not gonna answer that bc of my own personal reasons’” or whatever it was. I’m especially glad the women are feeling comfortable and empowered to do that.

This makes so much sense. She produced, wrote and recorded it all herself and it feels so Billie Eilish. I feel like her first album, wwafawdwg is about depression, suicide and mental health matters. Happier than ever is really about her image to the public and how she represents herself. Hit me hard and soft is definitely about self image and relationships and I feel like this fits all so well together as how she's developing as a person and stuff😊
