Swag: Cash Cobain Calls Justin Bieber ‘Mad Cool' After Collaborating On Surprise Album
Justin Bieber's Swag collaborator Cash Cobain has hailed the pop star 'mad cool". The 27-year-old drill star – whose real name is Cashmere Lavon Small – came to feature on the title track on Bieber's surprise album after he shared his love for his track Trippin on a Yacht on social media and he slid in his DMs to suggest they work together.
He told GQ: 'I wrote bro like, 'We got to get some work in.' So I'm like, all right, boom—took bro's number down and then we was chopping it up for, I don't know, a couple days."
On the informal Swag sessions at Bieber's home – which he shares with wife Hailey Bieber and their baby boy Jack Blues – he said: 'I pulled up on him and in his crib. He had like, mad other producers, rap people in the room – like, it was people I know and s***, just creating and s*** like that. We was just sitting in a circle, [passing] the mic and just saying s*** on the beat. I was just saying mad dumb s***."
Praising the Baby hitmaker's attitude, he said: 'You might think Justin Bieber would be on some other s***, but bro is mad cool. It was just natural…. He was just like, 'Swag. Swag, bro.' He on some swag s***. That's [all] him right there."
The finished song was the result of a day of ad-libbing. Cobain insisted: 'That was just off the first day we met, for real." Praising the production, he said: 'That s*** hard, especially that first song. 'That first song is like a '90s type beat. They went crazy—I've never heard nobody really try to emulate that sound."
Bieber reportedly relished having 'full creative freedom" over his new album. The chart-topping star is no longer under Scooter Braun's management, and he's not 'having to stress about creating the perfect single, or perfect album".
A source told Rolling Stone magazine: 'Breaking away from Scooter Braun and his team has been something that Justin has wanted for so long, and now that he's fully free, he could finally share this album with his fans and with the world.
'Having full creative freedom, sadly, is something new for him as an artist. Not having to stress about creating the perfect single, or perfect album, allowed for him to create the best body of music he's ever made."

Who is Jameel Khan? Gullak's beloved dad now playing a crucial role in Mandala Murders
Veteran actor Jameel Khan, celebrated for his commanding screen presence and remarkable range, is back in the spotlight, this time for his compelling role in the Netflix crime thriller Mandala Murders. Widely recognized for his portrayal of the lovable father Santosh Mishra in SonyLIV's hit series Gullak, Khan's transition to a more intense, mystery-driven storyline marks an exciting and well-received departure from his usual roles. Who is Jameel Khan? Gullak's beloved dad now in Mandala Murders Jameel Khan, born on November 26, 1974, in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, studied at Sherwood College, Nainital, and later completed his Master's in Literature from Aligarh Muslim University. Initially not aiming for a career in acting, his passion for performance eventually led him to theatre and films. He began his film journey with a minor role in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999) and went on to appear in acclaimed films like Gangs of Wasseypur and Baby. However, it was his role Santosh Mishra in Gullak that brought him widespread recognition. Jameel Khan's role in Mandala Murders In Mandala Murders, Jameel Khan portrays Jimmy Khan, an English-speaking oculist with an intense fascination for mandalas and ancient symbols. Though he may initially seem like a supporting character, Jimmy quickly proves to be a key intellectual force in the investigation led by Rea (Vaani Kapoor) and Vikram (Vaibhav Raj Gupta). His character blends scientific accuracy with philosophical insight. As an oculist, a specialist in vision, his profession serves as a clever metaphor for his role in the story: helping others uncover hidden truths. More than just an advisor, Jimmy becomes a catalyst for discovery, steering the main characters through the symbolic and spiritual maze tied to the series of murders. Jameel Khan as Santosh Mishra in Gullak In the beloved slice-of-life series Gullak, Jameel Khan takes on the role of Santosh Mishra, the sensible yet lovable father of a typical middle-class North Indian family. As the head of the Mishra household, Santosh is a government employee navigating the everyday challenges of financial stress, parenting duties, and clashes between traditional values and modern outlooks.
