RJ here. We're hanging out with the Young Hollywood studio with Mitchell Musso. So, now, Hannah Montana, you had that catchphrase Freaky, Freaky, Fresh.

Mitchel Musso

Sure.

RJ Williams

Where's the catchphrase on the new show, waiting for things. Oh, boy. What is the new catchphrase?

Mitchel Musso

I think most of them are gonna come from my co-star, Doc. He's he's really the comedic relief throughout the show. I mean, I think a lot of the stuff that I do is is somewhat funny, but Doc is just hilarious.

Young Hollywood

And I I was watching an episode the other day, a mermaid episode where where they got the legs. And you do that thing where you fell. You were climbing up the ladder and you fell. Well how did you do that? Was that seriously a stunt?

Mitchel Musso

Uh yeah. We just yeah, we just dropped we dropped me from you know, 15, 20 ft onto a pad.

Young Hollywood

That's kinda crazy. You just nervous about that?

Mitchel Musso

Yeah, it's ridiculous. No, I love that stuff. That I love I love that action, man. That's that was my favorite part about, you know, joining the show was when it comes to the climax in the story. You know, we have full-on sword fight battle, you know what I mean, that we've you know, choreographed and you know, pads and mats and like I was saying, harnesses and people jumping and flying through the air and it's wild, you know, it's wild. Yeah, explosions. Yeah, it's just it's the real it's the real deal.

Young Hollywood

Let's let's talk about the music. The album's called Brainstorm.

Mitchel Musso

It's my second album. So we had to make it original, you know, and I know everybody says that, but we we had many ideas and ways of making it original in our own way. Uh and that was one. Okay, we gotta come up with the concept. How many songs are gonna be on the album? Let's make it short and sweet. So we did eight songs. And we figured, okay, we gotta make it a little different than just like sending out singles. So let's make the first song to the very last song tell one fluent story. So, you know, it just keeps yeah, so it's one concept, you know what I mean? And then I figured if people wouldn't get the message through my lyrics, I would shoot a music video to every single song. And that's what we did. Just so that you can get the visual of of the message trying to be portrayed.

Young Hollywood

That that's pretty impressive though to to be delivering eight music videos.

Mitchel Musso

Yeah yeah, we shot eight in like 3 1/2 days. It was wild. We just, you know, we just we're just mad men.

Young Hollywood

Now let's talk about the musical words now. Is there can I I saw you there. What were some of the highlights for you?

Mitchel Musso

Uh I I went up there just to go say what's up and kinda promote the album and and hopefully get, you know, people get the word out there, get the buzz going. And of course, uh support Miley. I know that she was performing uh that night and her birthday came up and uh uh it was cool. I got to see some, you know, familiar faces and also uh people, you know, I I look up to and yeah, and get inspired by every day. And uh it's nice being invited to events like that, you know.

Young Hollywood
