Billy Porter:I stayed in it. I did it anyway. Whatever the “it” is right. So I get to come back now. And all of this is on my own terms. Hey, everybody, this is Billy Porter, and you are watching Billboard News.
Tetris Kelly:Hey, it’s Tetris with Billboard News, and look who I have here! Mr. Billy Porter. Hi.
Billy Porter:Hi, how are you?
Tetris Kelly:You got a lot to talk about your magnum opus. You released this album Black Mona Lisa.
Billy Porter:Yeah.
Tetris Kelly:Why did you refer to it as that and how was this project different?
Billy Porter:You know, we were writing. I was in the writing process with Justin Tranter and his team, and you know, we probably ’bout six, eight months into the process — we had written a bunch of other stuff, and the themes and the tone were forming. I don’t remember where “Black Mona Lisa” came from, I just kind of say, it kind of fell out of the sky. And everybody in the room was like …
Tetris Kelly:That works.
Billy Porter:Did that just happen? Like there was like a, you know, like, time stood still for about a good 20 seconds, and then like, maybe even 30. And then 20 minutes later, the song was written. It’s referencing the original Mona Lisa. And that painting is relevant, always — past, present and future. And that’s my goal with my legacy.
