10 Things Aminé Can’t Live Without

How do doctors put these on so smooth like?

This shit is hard.

(rap beat)

Hey what's up, this is Amine

and these are my 10 essential things.

Today, we'll be caring for these 10 essential things

with rubber blue gloves because they're very essential

and I care about my things.

First up is my jewelry.

Blaow!

I wear jewelry just because it makes me feel

a bit more confident.

This is my favorite ring that I got,

it was like the first purchase I made.

Once I got a little more money in my pocket.

This is my grille.

I only wear this when I go to a party

or I'm with my friends.

This is, you should zoom in on this, this is nice.

This is really nice.

These are my favorite chains.

Both of these are my parents

when they were like, 20, 21, whatever.

And I'm very close with my parents.

Me and my parents love each other.

This is my hard drive.

CLBN is basically just my brand and clothing line

that a lot of fans purchase as well.

All the pieces of the clothing that I design

for my company and like all my music.

Anything pretty much important to me

that can be virtually stored.

I have a backup of this at home

in case one of y'all tried to steal this from me.

There's probably like 100 unreleased songs in this thing

to be honest.

I keep them stored in here when I'm having

some writer's block.

I kinda just go back to this hard drive

and listen to some of the songs that I wrote.

There's no, like, same path that I take

to make a song, I guess.

It always happens in a very random way.

Either I have a beat first or we make the beat to a song

I already wrote.

It's kind of like a very careless kind of process.

Not careless in a negative way but careless in a way that

kinda let things happen the way they happen

and let things flourish the way they should.

These are my eyeglasses.

They are Warby Parker.

I basically buy about, like,

ten of these same pairs of glasses.

I lose things a lot.

These just look okay on me.

I feel like I look like a nerd, I need contacts.

I'm very blind.

The camera is blurry to me now.

So when I'm performing, the reason I don't wear glasses

is because of course you can't really like jump around

with glasses, but also, I can't see you motherfuckers

so it's like great.

I'm not that nervous.

My dad sent me an email when I was on tour, just like,

why are you jumping into crowds, that's so unsafe,

these people barely know who you are.

How can you trust them?

Yeah, my dad cares for me.

This is my HomePod.

When I make a new song that no one's heard yet,

I just put it in my iTunes, and then I wake up

the next morning, after not hearing it for a while

and just tell Siri, hey Siri, play this.

The sound quality of this thing is just really cool.

Apple doesn't pay me to market this.

I'm doing this because this actually sounds really good.

This is actually not my HomePod.

The good people at GQ brought this for me

because my HomePod was stolen last night

at our Airbnb.

So to the people that stole our HomePod, fuck you.

But this, it's all good.

Material things aren't that important.

But when they're essential, they're essential.

You should use that.

This is my favorite perfume.

Because I think men's cologne smells very strong

and doesn't smell that good so I wear women's perfume.

'Cause dudes pass me, and they're like, damn bro,

what kind of cologne is that?

I'm like, dude, it's perfume.

They feel like insecure and weird about it

but then they ask me for the name and they go get it, so,

you know, we're changing gender norms, out here, feel me?

Louis Vuitton.

I don't know how to pronounce this.

M, mi-mille fe, few, foe.

F, E, U, X, I don't know.

It's just some cool shit that smells really good.

This is my pouch.

It's a Goyard pouch that I got when I was in Mexico.

We were just recording music out there.

Pouches are pretty in now, it's what all the kids are doing.

Normally I keep like, my wallet,

some Chapstick 'cause my lips always be chapped.

I don't know.

Something's wrong with my lips genetically.

I hate carrying things in my pocket,

that's literally why I have this.

Next is my wallet.

This is Goyard as well.

I really like Goyard in general.

I think the print is just really cool.

It's super consistent, nothing ever changes

and I like very simple designs.

And I like cardholder wallets, just because I hate fat ass

wallets that you have to stuff in the back of your ass,

like that shit just sucks.

One thing that I have in this fucking wallet

is an amazing thing, I lose my wallet a lot.

I have the Tiles.

This shit is mad essential, whoa.

I lose my wallet all the time.

And I love my wallet and this is something

very essential to me, so this is an essential piece

to my wallet which is essential to me,

which is essential to my life.

This is my Kiehl's moisturizers.

Just makes you look shiny and clean and not bummy

so anything that makes me look not bummy

is always a plus.

I can't walk out the house with my face looking dry

because nobody likes an ashy face.

I have a YouTube channel all about my routine

and makeup tutorials if you wanna go check it out.

That's a joke, I don't have any of that.

These are some of my favorite new sneakers.

They're just like, I always think you should be wearing

a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes

that you designed or your friend designed

that represents something you believe in.

So.

Yeah.

This is Cantu oil.

Which is the oil I spray in my hair a lot.

It just smells really, really good.

I have a song about it on my new album.

I live a very true life.

I own the things I talk about.

These are rubber bands that I wear for my hair

to tie them into these little things,

I don't know what you call them,

pigtails, whatever you wanna call them.

If I didn't tie my hair up, you would think

I just got out of bed, you know?

It's been fun.

It's been a great day.

Hope you go home and learn a lot from this

and tell your friends 1.5.

Bye, GQ.
