"I had been thinking maybe it’s going to come at the top of the year, maybe it’s going to come around the Super Bowl or whatever."

About the now infamous meme, Mustard said: "I can’t wait to perform that song and just hear people just saying that, ‘cause everybody’s going to say that like crazy.”
“I got this thing where I’m trying to send [Kendrick] something every day,” he continues. “I’m always [wondering] what’s next. You know, this morning I’m texting like, ‘What do you need from me?’
Whatever it is, I’m on board and I’m ready to just keep my head down and keep working.”
