Following the burst of videos featuring his HUGE trap track “harlem shake”, Baauer gives online community Reddit a couple of hours of his time to sit down for some good-old Q&A.

Expecting not much more than generic questions that could be answered with a quick trip to google, scattered with the occasional troll, (didn’t see anything on his Beef with Azealia Banks) I dug through the 2000+ comments and hand picked a few of my fave, enjoy!
