Focused on Forward

Devin Burgess

January 5, 2023 | In conversation with Quincy Allfree, writing assistance by Mary Klein, photography assistance by Lauren Delligatti, motion assistance by Lauren Delligatti and Matthew Spoleti

Devin Burgess describes himself as hard-working, loyal, passionate, and loving (as long as you don’t fuck with him). One word we’d use to describe him? A trailblazer. The first in his family to pursue music, he’s been dropping heaters since 2012. During an interview between the ‘Function’ producer and TITLE Staff creative Quincy Allfree, we were lucky enough to dig deeper into the mind behind the music. The pair reflected on wild changes in the music scene, personal career highlights, and just needing a damn hug.
