You might have heard of Lionel Boyce, the somewhat lesser known Odd Future member who recently got arrested outside of the Boston show. You’ve definitely heard his voice— that deep one that speaks the first words on the Odd Future Tape Vol. 2 calling all his “dusty ass” friends ugly. But that same guy who calls Domo a fatass and details Syd’s possible sexual exploits, is actually pretty soft-spoken. We got a minute to speak with the man himself outside of the NYC pop up shop on Tuesday. Boyce, 20,discusses starring in Loiter Squad (premiering this Sunday, the 25th) and the beauty of having famous friends.
What’s your position on Loiter Squad?
I produce on the show and I’m one of the four main characters on the show.
So what can we expect from the show?
A whole bunch of skits and shit like that. No one’s seen it so they assume it’s gonna be like Chappelle’s Show. It’s skits though.
And it’s all Odd Future?
Yeah the guys in the group are in it, but the four main guys are: me, Jasper, Tyler and Taco.
What kind of skits do you do?
Well, we have one where we dress up like the Williams sisters and went around or whatever. It was on the internet, there was an article in Orlando ’cause they really thought that the Williams sisters was there, but it was me and Tyler dressed up. So they got mad, I guess, or whatever.
How’d you come up with the idea for the show?
Tyler’s always told me we’d do a show, ‘I’ma do a show and you’re gonna be in it,’ or whatever, as corny as that sounds, but we did.
What do you do with Odd Future besides for the show?
I’m the drug dealer. No, I’m kidding. Sometimes I help out with merch, I go on tour. For the most part it’s the show.
How many people in the crew go on the tour?
The guys that rap and Jasper and Taco too. And Lucas.
What is Lucas’s deal?
Merch, he’s just famous.
Once you get famous you bring all your friends with you.
Yeah, he’s just a famous guy.
Where are you going to watch the premier?
In Atlanta, I don’t know if they’re doing something out there or whatever. I know we’ll be in Atlanta so maybe hopefully I’ll catch it on TV.
