Speaking to Kerrang! for his first-ever cover in 2021, KennyHoopla shared of his hopes for the future: “I think if you can be honest, make infectious music and really speak your truth, that’s something that can move the world.

We're making authenticity. I just want my heart to shine through, and once I’ve done that then, honestly, I want to take over the fucking world.
“Somebody has to stand up for rock, so why shouldn’t it be me?”
