Have A Nice Life drops this Monday, and according to MURS, that means his most definitive album drops the same day.

In this very extensive interview, MURS breaks down the various facets from Have A Nice Life, including but not limited to

  • The making of the album
  • The album’s polished and huge production
  • If it’s difficult to come up with content after all these years
  • And much more!

Check out his explanation as to why Have A Nice Life is his definitive masterwork

It’s finally having a sound sonically that matches me. I’ve always been very autobiographical, very me, but I feel like with 9th Wonder and all the producers I’ve worked with, it’s not really me. I’m a West Coast kid, grew up on Warren G, G Funk but I’m also Wu Tang and Boot Camp. So my producer for this album is one of my good friends, my best friend growing up. Jessie Shatkin, we DJed together since we were 14, so he knows sonically where I’m coming from and what I’m about. So having him produce me vocally and musically and just us bouncing ideas off each other, I feel like I’m finally home, this is me. Along with the brothers from ¡May Day!, we collaborated on the ¡Murs Day! album and went on tour, we just been in each others lives for so much. I finally feel like I got a group of brothers around me that can musically translate how I feel. And also give me an opportunity to go after a larger fan base with a bigger sound.
