Travis Barker did an interview with Billboard, where he praises multiple artists including Billie Eilish , Avril Lavigne , Olivia Rodrigo and more! He says:
I like Oliviaâs album, I love everything Billieâs done. I wonât say, âThis is pop-punk.â Iâll say, this music that came out, letâs say like Avrilâs âLove Suxâ, letâs say Jxdnâs âTell Me About Tomorrowâ, and âTickets To My Downfallâ by Machine Gun Kelly, were all inspired by pop-punk. It doesnât mean that itâs just pop-punk or has to be categorised like that. Olivia Rodrigo is probably going to make an album that has a little bit of pop-punk influence and some other influences too. Billieâs going to make whatever magical music sheâs going to make and sheâs going to be inspired by so much. You donât have to follow the rules or keep it as sterile as the record label or whatever the rollout plan may be.
