Aiden Heung on Gucci, Crash-Outs, and Loyalty

by Sterling Davis

Aiden Heung is in beast mode. After winning the coveted Levis Prize, the Elinor Benedict Prize, and with a collection of poetry dropping in 2026, Aiden sounds off on Nietzsche, crash-outs, and God.

Crash-out or no crash-out
"How about cash out? I'm pretty good at it."

Authenticity or virtue
"Authenticity, definitely."

New York or LA
"Neither. I'm a mountain guy. Hike with me."

Dostoevsky or Proust
"Absolutely Dostoevsky. Read all his novels. The Brothers Karamazov is my all time favorite novel."

Drake or Kendrick
"Kendrick. Such poetry in his music."

Gucci or Prada
"Neither. I'm an Ascis guy."

Homies or Bitches
"I need context...you see, I'm very practical ;)"

Nietzsche or Schopenhauer
"Neither. Ask me about Heidegger and we will be besties."

God
"I try to find my 'God' in poetry."

OnlyFans
"I believe everyone deserves a stage."

Loyalty
"Absolutely, except blind loyalty."
