Belgian star Damso: The questions that I ask myself are about death in this life

“There are people who are alive, but live like they’re dead. They don’t strive to go further. But I know life is really short because I’ve seen people die just like that, in the street. So this question speaks to me: how can we be absent from our own lives?” - Belgian rapper Damso says in the Guardian interview about his musical goals. Although mellow sonically, his lyrics touch on serious subjects as well, such as suicide, and paedophilia. Generally, he aims high as well - "The questions that I ask myself about death aren’t about dying, they’re about death in this life".
