In a recent interview, Blueface discussed his collaboration with emerging rapper and YouTuber DDG on the 2020 hit "Moonwalking in Calabasas," which has since gone double platinum and amassed over half a billion views. Blueface revealed that their friendship began organically during a San Diego high school performance, well before the song blew up. Initially, Blueface wasn’t immediately sold on the track but jumped on it after hearing the final version, freestyling his verse in the studio on the spot.

The interview also touched on the impact of Nipsey Hussle’s tragic death in 2019. Blueface shared that while he never met Nipsey personally, he felt their connection growing as Nipsey was following him on social media. He praised Nipsey as a vital part of L.A. culture and expressed sadness over the loss, noting it was surprising given Nipsey’s respected status even within gang circles. Blueface described Nipsey’s public sendoff as a historic tribute to an L.A. icon.
