Leray: "I always have my team and I have the people that genuinely, truly care about me. You can’t please everybody, you know what I mean?"

Leray: "You want to know what I love about the fashion industry? That there’s a lot of people in the fashion industry that know that, and admire all ethnicities, all races. They’re like, 'Yo, that’s the culture,' you know what I mean? A lot of fashion stems from the culture and I admire that."

Leray: "I’m very adventurous. I love outdoor stuff, all the stuff that I really can’t buy, but that you can go get right in the world of nature."

Leray: "I record through and write through experience. Trendsetter, my first debut album, you’ll notice there’s a lot of pain. I went through a lot. It was a big Coi hate train at one point, and it was just so much that I went through, outside of music and in music, and you can really hear the pain in my last album versus this album."

Leray: "I’m showing you why I leveled up and I’m also getting vulnerable and I’m telling my story and just showing you Coi."

Leray: "You don’t have to put the clothes on, you don’t have to sing the songs, you don’t have to listen to them, you don’t have to support me, you don’t have to follow me. Everybody has a choice."

Leray: "Sometimes it feels like it’s me against the world, but you’ve got to remind yourself 'it’s my world,' it’s Coi’s world."

Leray: "I really pay attention to the way people carry themselves. If a guy carries himself like a player, like a boss, just smooth, I like that. I like a guy who’s just really confident, real masculine energy, but also fun and outgoing."

Leray: "I hate boring guys. If you’re not trying to go outside and camp with me, you’re a dub. I can’t get jiggy with that shit."

Leray: "And when it comes to longevity and timeless music, you’ve got to really focus on that pre, that post, that bridge, that chorus, the verses, the moments, the chants, and then it has to come from the heart. I feel like hits have to come from the heart, bops have to come from the heart."

Leray: "I like to get my hands dirty."
