English rockstar Yungblud talks about how he feels about receiving his Grammy nominations, what it was like to collaborate with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry to create the One More Time EP, working with The Smashing Pumpkins’ frontman Billy Corgan on a new version of his Grammy nominated track “Zombies,” reminiscing on his last moments with Ozzy Osbourne and his impact on him and his wild night with Lenny Kravitz after the VMAs with Billboard‘s Delisa Shannon at the Flower Shop in New York City.
Yungblud: You’ve held your s–t together, to be honest. I’d be like, “Yeah, f–king music in love and f–king.” Yeah, man, Delissa are you doing, babe?
Delisa Shannon: It is so good to meet you.
Yungblud: Thank you for having me.
Delisa Shannon: Thank you.
Yungblud: I’m excited, man, this is gonna be really, really fun.
Delisa Shannon: Thanks for taking us out
Yungblud: Innit, man, we should get a beer.
Delisa Shannon: So, Dom tell me about this place, why are we here?
Yungblud: It’s the Flower Shop in the Lower East Side. One of my best mates owns it. He’s over there. He’s a cutie, little Australian. Man. And I just love coming here. I just think it’s really chill, unpretentious. We should have a sign above the door that says, “We don’t give a f–k what bands you’re in.” And I just love it. I just think it’s really real. Me and my friends have had great nights in here. It’s got a leopard pool table, and they serve good pints.
Delisa Shannon: So it’s perfect.
Yungblud: Yeah.
Delisa Shannon: So what’s your go to order?
Yungblud: Pint of lager, shot of whiskey on the side.
Delisa Shannon: You might need to, like, have your name on the menu at this place.
Yungblud: Yeah, I’m telling you, little looks they do like they do a schooner here, which is an Australian 2/3 of a pint glass is what we have in England. And then half a pint, about 2/3 is what the Aussies drink. I’d love a little skewey of Miller Lite, please. Thanks.
Delisa Shannon: And I’ll do a Fat Tire, please.
Waiter: Couple of shots?
Yungblud: Yeah, we’ll do a couple shots of whiskey.
