[@misterIceymusik]

[@mimiLaPinkyest]

honestly red bull music doesn't have good quality of interviewers.

[@mattbogenschultz9771]

Kinda cringed when he said, “French touch”.

[@MOABeats92]

Is there an audience or did he kidnap Toro at gunpoint for this?

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

Heehee this is great ❤️ nice to have a role model who is mixed like meeeee

[@filmfanman65]

the interviewer writes for pitchfork --so basically the most insufferable type of person.

[@jpg963]

lmao he's constantly just saying weird music journalism buzzwords of the time and desperately trying to pry out his influences and processes. terribly awkward interviewer

[@bodangoran9981]

do you really have to edit out the music?

[@Starkesea]

billy dana copyright maybe,

[@GloriaSilerio12]

6 place baby

[@cr4301]

[@lovestslim8229]

[@visible7044]

this sucks because this is like the only long form interview with toro and the interview guy is asking bad questions and doesn't get anything out of him.

[@kevinpatel1143]

[@jpg963]

nah i think this video was reuploaded it seems to be in between freaking out and anything in return he must have been like 25-27

[@LarcTald]

worst interviewer of the decade.

[@kimyusaf9589]

The real interviewer is dead... This interviewer is just an awkward murderous fan,
He has been planning on switching places with the original interviewer ..for months

[@oostism]

This is the most uncomfortable interview ever
