MAG COVERS: TRAVIS McCOY COVERS HONEYMAG

Gym Class Heroes front man Travis McCoy covers the new issue of Honey Magazine. He spoke about his breakup with singer Katy Perry, new solo album and more. Peep some snippets below:

On His New Album:
“A lot of the songs were really sad and somber, but that was a year ago. I had just got out of a hightly-publicized relationship. When I wrote ‘Billionaire’ with Bruno I was like, Okay, this is the lane I want to be in. I am a whole completely different person now – a lot happier. ‘Billionaire’ captures where I am now. Before the album comes out I have a mix tape dropping called Forgetting Katy Perry. That doesn’t mean I’m airing out my dirty laundy. It’s just stuff that didn’t fit on this album. Bruno produced another song called ‘Dr. Feel Good’ and we got Cee-lo to sing on it, which might be the second single. Lazarius is just an overall really great summertime record.”

On Katy Perry:
“There is no bad blood or hard feelings [with Katy Perry]. It happens and you move on. You live and you learn – it makes you a better person. It’s the moving on that builds character. People that dwell on old relationships tend to stay bitter. I’m not that type of person.” [ READ MORE ]
