Speaker 3: I like the way it makes me feel. I like

48
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 3: the decisions that I make when I'm stoned. I like

49
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: the way movies look when I'm stoned. I like playing

50
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,520

51
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. Off marijuana though, just marijuana, not anything crazy.

52
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: The Cushion Orange Juice, Range Juice too. Yeah, great project.

53
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: I love I love the first time second apid though

54
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: th tough it. I really love the first asp thank you.

55
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: But it got like a nineteen ninety now G funk

56
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: sound for sure. Was that intentional?

57
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, definitely.

58
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 3: I think that was like the original sound of Cushion

59
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 3: Orange Juice For a lot of people, it was like

60
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 3: nostalgic for the nineties or G funk or you know,

61
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: just riding around in.

62
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: The car going to house parties getting fresh.

63
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: It just got that whole you know, player vibe to

64
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: it and a little bit of funk to it as

65
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: well as just like the way the beats slap and

66
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: the way that the base is there. So a lot

67
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: of the productions Cardo and Sledgron and E Dan and

68
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 3: just the original people who you know, put that sound together.

69
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 3: So it was really easy to just bring it back. Yeah,

70
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 3: I'm glad you like it. Slaps thank you.

71
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 5: You had announced in twenty twenty four that this project

72
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 5: was done and now it's here.

73
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

74
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 4: The release of.

75
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 5: It, so is it traditional release to streaming or like

76
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 5: how you're going to do because Cushion Orange just one

77
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 5: it was like you do did your own thing. You dropped,

78
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 5: you kind of changed the way people were listening to

79
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 5: music mixes at the time.

80
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: Right now, this one's going to streaming.

81
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 3: We're releasing it through BMG, and uh, they've been really

82
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: really cool at letting me kind of just curate the

83
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 3: vibe and what the feeling of it is, and they

84
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: understand what the project is.

85
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: And we've had meetings, you know, weekly just.

86
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: How we're going to attack it and you know, make

87
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 3: it last and making something real. So I've just been

88
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 3: really excited about updating, you know, the format. I think

89
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 3: that's what's most important, especially for like being an OG

90
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: in the game, is you know, releasing things with the

91
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 3: times how they are now, but also still being innovative

92
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 3: as well. And that's why you see, like in between

93
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: I've been dropping freestyles and doing a lot of stuff

94
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 3: like just entertaining my fans because I still have that freedom,

95
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 3: I'm able to do that as we get ready for

96
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 3: the album too, So just to put it all together

97
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: and make it current, I think that was the idea

98
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 3: for all of us.

99
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 2: You know, yesterday was the fifteenth anniversary of Cushion Ars.

100
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I did hear that April fourteen, So you

101
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 6: did hear that, Yeah, album, I dropped so many albums

102
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 6: and stuff like that, like every month is an anniversary

103
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 6: of another project.

104
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: But fifteen years, Yeah, that's tight.

105
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 3: And I think we're really lucky to be able to well,

106
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 3: I'm grateful to be able to drop you know, the

107
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 3: sequel as close to as I did with the original one.

108
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: I feel like that's like a sign that just you know,

109
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 3: feels now it just worked out like that.

110
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 2: It is divine alignment.

111
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: Like that.

112
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 2: Do you remember your mind state? April fourteenth, twenty ten.

113
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: I do, Okay, Yeah, what was it. I was just

114
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: getting off tour. I was in Miami.

115
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 3: I was working on rolling papers the album, but I

116
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: already had Cushion or Orange Juice done, and I had

117
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 3: been hyping it up for a lot of months before,

118
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 3: so my fans knew it was about to come out.

119
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: And I remember just going to the hotel room. I

120
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: was in a nice ass hotel on the beach, and

121
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, I'm about to drop it, and

122
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 3: I just released it from my computer that day. I

123
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 3: was really I was still am super confident, but I

124
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 3: was really really like super duper confident about the music

125
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 3: and just my connection with my fans, So that was

126
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 3: the time to do it.

127
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 2: Did it pissed the label off when you dropped in.

128
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 3: I really wasn't signed at that point. They were kind

129
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 3: of thinking about signing me, working on signing me. But

130
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 3: it didn't piss them off at all. They knew how

131
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 3: important it was for me to still curate that organic

132
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 3: thing because at that time I was doing a lot

133
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: more for myself than any label could do. And it's

134
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 3: still like that, Like I promote myself, I do my

135
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 3: social media, I do my merch, I do my marketing,

136
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 3: and I do all I just give you a whole

137
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 3: package and then you could just you know, you look

138
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 3: like a genius.

139
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 2: Well because changed everything though, that was like your that's

140
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: like your section eighty.

141
00:05:55,720 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 5: That's so far gone that like beanded the tailor game. Yeah,

142
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 5: Like we were talking about it before you came in.

143
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 5: Like I remember the feeling when Cushion orangees came out,

144
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 5: and like I was a senior in high school and

145
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 5: like they would throw parties where you would literally come

146
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 5: to smoke and only listen to Cushion Orange jeps, and

147
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 5: like it was it was such a movement that it

148
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 5: was like really such a movement.

149
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what it was for. So it's good

150
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: that that happened.

151
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 3: It was all intentional and it was like, like you said,

152
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: that's like my you know, or my doggy style or

153
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: my illmatic Like I knew I had to make something

154
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 3: that was like that, and you know that was a

155
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: good one to be attached to. And yeah, it was

156
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 3: just I always tell people it's bigger than the music.

157
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: It's stuff like what you're saying, like, that's what makes

158
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: it what it is. Like even this album now, it's

159
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 3: amazing music wise, but you can't just sit there and

160
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 3: listen to it.

161
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: You gotta experience that shit.

162
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: You gotta go to a beach, you gotta go on vacation,

163
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 3: you gotta kick it with the homies, you gotta hang

164
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: out super duper late. You got to hook up with

165
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 3: somebody who you've been you know, or you got to

166
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 3: meet somebody who you never even understood understood that with you.

167
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: That's what makes it what it is, and that's what

168
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 3: I'm excited for people to experience, as well as the

169
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 3: music being good.

170
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: People don't realize that though. When you put out music,

171
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 2: music just provides the soundtrack to whatever you're experiencing in life. Yeah,

172
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: that's why you can never argue with certain people about

173
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 2: certain albums because the time of life they were experiencing

174
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 2: that album. Yeah, you can't like when somebody says, oh,

175
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: this is this is gonna remind you of whiz Kalif

176
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: for cushion Ards. Nah, right, I'm on something totally different

177
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 2: than I was than twenty ten exactly.

178
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: It's personal.

179
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think people do have those personal moments or

180
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 3: those life decisions and what you're listening to at the

181
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 3: time definitely, you know dictates, you know what your memories

182
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: of that are, so it gets deep.

183
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 5: Do you think that because I saw that you have

184
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 5: like it's twenty two or twenty three songs on the project.

185
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's twenty two I.

186
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 2: Think so full Bonus records, four five Bonus record.

187
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: Bonus record.

188
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 5: So normally with people who put that many songs on

189
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 5: in one place, it's like, you think people are gonna

190
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 5: listen to start to finish. But like I and me

191
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 5: listening to it, I don't have any doubt that people will.

192
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 5: Do you think that the conversation that you're having at

193
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 5: the beginning and then the conversation you haven't at the end,

194
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 5: is it cohesive? Or do you just throw songs on there,

195
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 5: like how do you kind of flowing out of well?

196
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 3: With this project, the last maybe four songs we put

197
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: out before the album came out. We use this method

198
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 3: called the waterfall method, where you put songs out and

199
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 3: then add them.

200
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: To the album later.

201
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 3: And that was a conscious decision because I didn't know

202
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 3: what people were gonna want to hear. So those songs

203
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 3: helped me dictate what I was going to do with

204
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 3: the album. And I still like those songs, but they

205
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 3: weren't exactly what you were going to get from the

206
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 3: full album. So I used that as an opportunity to,

207
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 3: you know, do some promo and get the idea of

208
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 3: the album out there. But by the time you get

209
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: the actual real album, those eighteen songs are brand new.

210
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 3: Those are an experience that nobody has yet and that

211
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 3: everybody's going to get together. And that's where to me,

212
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: the more the conversation is is from the intro to

213
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 3: the eighteen song, and.

214
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty simple.

215
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 3: It's the whole album is just about keeping it players motivational.

216
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 3: It's get stoned, and there's songs for the ladies and

217
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 3: their songs to ride around to. So as long as

218
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: I'm in that pocket. Yeah, the conversation is good in

219
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: my opinion. I know what my fans want and what

220
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 3: they expect, so I didn't go outside of that at all.

221
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 2: Why a sequel after all of these years, because that

222
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 2: could be hit of miss too.

223
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just again listening to the fans. Man, everybody

224
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 3: was telling me like how much they missed that sound

225
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 3: or that pocket of what I was doing at that time,

226
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,839
Speaker 3: or how much they enjoyed it. So it's nothing for

227
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: me as an artist to like, you know, dig in

228
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 3: my bag and get with the producers that I trust

229
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 3: and really not recreate that but do what.

230
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: That sounds like now.

231
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 3: But it's the same feeling though, like you know what

232
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 3: I mean, and I'm not scared to do that. And

233
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 3: it's all about the fans. It's offered them and it's

234
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 3: what they want, you know. Like a lot of nostalgic

235
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 3: stuff is coming back. And my era, like you said,

236
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 3: is fifteen years ago, so it's way yeah, it's way

237
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 3: further removed than it is close. So why not just

238
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 3: go ahead and just revisit something that was you know,

239
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 3: big to us and that people appreciate the.

240
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: Problem with fans though they fickle and they don't want

241
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 2: you to grow. So you so you so even though

242
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 2: you've grown, like you're a father now, like your life

243
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: might be totally different than it was fifteen years ago,

244
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: They're like, no, I want twenty ten. Yeah, that's impossible.

245
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 3: I don't think it's impossible, really, yeah, because I think

246
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 3: they just want the best. Like I can experiment and

247
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: I can sing, and I can do country songs or

248
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: pop records, but they're like, yo, we like when you rap,

249
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 3: or I could wear you know, high fashion and you

250
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 3: know runway stuff, but they're like, we like when you

251
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 3: wear streetwear. And it's not hard for me to just

252
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 3: get right back into that. It's like, Okay, I'm trying

253
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 3: what I like and I'm still gonna do that in

254
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 3: my off time or if I get an opportunity to

255
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 3: do it, I'm gonna throw a suit on and I'm

256
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: gonna do a pop record, but it's not be my song.

257
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: It'll be somebody else's and I could still chart and

258
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 3: perform it all over the world.

259
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: But for my fans, I'm gonna give them what they want.

260
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 5: But you are Dad now Dada too, and making the

261
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 5: music and putting this project together like it does still

262
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 5: sound like whisky. For it's new and it's innovative, but

263
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 5: it's it's still the same feeling. How do you because

264
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 5: you are different, your dad is so different.

265
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 3: Now yeah, yeah, I think I'm just like a little

266
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I just keep it one hundred like that's

267
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 3: what I always did. I always just talked about my life.

268
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 3: I talked about my day. I talk about my week.

269
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 3: So like I've never run out of bars.

270
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: What's it like doing this whole run?

271
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: I so you got your coach, they don't go nowhere, Man,

272
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 3: I need some cisors.

273
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: I got.

274
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 4: Get some scissors.

275
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 5: But it was you were and you did you stay?

276
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 5: You did a stage right here, you did perform.

277
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 3: I came I came out with with my Fia, and

278
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 3: I came out with Tie on Sunday.

279
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 5: And now though when you running around, you got to

280
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 5: make time to get back to family too.

281
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 4: So how is that going to because you're about to

282
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 4: go on the tour.

283
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 3: It's cool like with me because I feel like I

284
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 3: do a great balance of each So I've spun spun,

285
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 3: I've spent so much time at home and you know,

286
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 3: having my regular schedule, it's okay for me to step

287
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 3: away and do this for now, because this is what

288
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 3: I've been playing, this is what I've been working tours,

289
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,599
Speaker 3: so you know, it's all part of the same process,

290
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 3: like it all goes together.

291
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 2: I feel like Coachella was quiet this year.

292
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: Now I wasn't quiet this year. It was it was

293
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 1: pretty rowdy.

294
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 3: I think they're trying to just take it back to

295
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 3: the essence of like what Coachella is about. So they

296
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 3: getting rid of like all the hype and all the

297
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 3: parties and stuff, and it's really about going to the

298
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 3: festival and a lot of people ain't down and like

299
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 3: you know, go in the desert and get dusty like that.

300
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 2: How was the energy ill? Did you? Because I saw

301
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 2: people complaining that the crowd. Crowd was dead, not for

302
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 2: your not just for yoursel, but just in general.

303
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: In my opinion, I think Coachella is all about like

304
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 3: the production and stuff like that. It's not really about

305
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: like seeing the crowd go crazy because they've been out

306
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 3: there all day, hot as hell, on drugs, sleeping in

307
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: tents and.

308
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: Stuff like that, so you can't really expect like too much.

309
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 3: But I think it was I think it was really

310
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 3: like what Coachella is all about Yeah, I had a

311
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 3: good time.

312
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: It was cool. I don't think it was dead.

313
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 5: I saw you were you and Amy were dancing on

314
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 5: the side of stage.

315
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: P Yeah.

316
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 5: Why are people so mad that you that's your girlfriend?

317
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 5: Why aren't mad that you dancing with your girl?

318
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: I don't think people were mad.

319
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 3: I think people just need clickbait, Like that's what the

320
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 3: world we live in these days. But I don't live

321
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 3: my life based off of that. I'm still gonna if

322
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm hearing some music like I'm I'm.

323
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 5: A dance But you never have like kind of leaned

324
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 5: into all of that stuff though, Like you've always kind

325
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 5: of like just even if it was happening, you did

326
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 5: your own thing, but we didn't know what Like people

327
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 5: the clickbait stuff. So like even when you were dating

328
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 5: and Baroles now with Amy, just people are really invested

329
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 5: in your life because you're such a big start and

330
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 5: now your kids are growing up and they're on social

331
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 5: media as well too.

332
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 4: People just want to know things and they throw things

333
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 4: on Yeah.

334
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: I know I'm in control all of that though.

335
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 3: I give him enough to you know what I'm saying, Like,

336
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 3: like I said, I don't live my life based off

337
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 3: of it. Yeah, but I know that people are nosy,

338
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 3: like you haven't even seen my daughter and she's almost

339
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:10,839
Speaker 3: a year old.

340
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: So I can keep some stuff quiet.

341
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 3: But this is the entertainment industry, so at the end

342
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 3: of the day, people are going to have their perception

343
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: of whatever whatever. But as long as my intentions are good,

344
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 3: I know I'm out here doing exactly what I'm supposed

345
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 3: to be doing, and nobody who really knows me and

346
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 3: loves me is ever going to be embarrassed by my

347
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 3: actions when I'm outside, So you can say whatever they

348
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 3: want to.

349
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, you won't be doing nothing, you literally really do.

350
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 5: How do you talk to like a Sebastian's older getting

351
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 5: older now, which is crazy because it's just crazy to see.

352
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 2: Him get older.

353
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 4: No, but it's literally.

354
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 5: Like when you think about when he was first born

355
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 5: to now and just being a fan and watching him grow,

356
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 5: there's probably so much things that you guys decide when

357
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 5: to talk to him about or not talk to him about.

358
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 5: But your celebrity, so it's different. How do you kind

359
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 5: of like what is your discretion on, Like here's what

360
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 5: I allow him to know or see or whatever, because

361
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 5: you can't guard kids from it everything.

362
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, we just keep it one hundred with him too.

363
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 3: He's a smart boy and these kids are we were

364
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 3: you know, grew up fast, but they're growing way faster

365
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: on the Internet and everything. So it's just about keeping

366
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 3: it real and you know, just allowing him to make

367
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 3: his own decisions as well. It's like I can tell

368
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 3: you what to do, but you know what's right and wrong,

369
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 3: and just instilling that in him. And also his friend

370
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 3: group too. That's a real big thing now, is his

371
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 3: friend group. But I feel like just him being a kid.

372
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 3: He's a normal kid. He goes through the same things

373
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 3: that normal kids go through. He gets in trouble at school.

374
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 3: We have to get on zoom calls with his teachers,

375
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 3: Like all of it's on a.

376
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 4: Zoom call with a teacher.

377
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: How is it?

378
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 5: Like, how did the teachers react. I mean they probably

379
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 5: used to celebrity parents.

380
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: They'd be cool.

381
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 3: They be chill, Like I think it helps him a

382
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: little bit more too, They're like, oh shit, we get

383
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 3: to see what here?

384
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: You can pass this class?

385
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: How is it being a father of a daughter, Now,

386
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: I got four daughters, got his daughter, so I know

387
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: daughters bring out a different energy.

388
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, it's it's super duper sweet. She's really young still,

389
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 3: she's only eight months, she'll be nine months, so her

390
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 3: personality hasn't come out yet.

391
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: But it is a little bit different having a little girl.

392
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 3: And I'm older now too, as apparently I was twenty

393
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 3: five when I had Bash. I'm thirty seven now, so

394
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 3: it's just like a whole different mind state, like having

395
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 3: a new child and it's a girl.

396
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: It was crazy to watch y'all all get older.

397
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I remember that.

398
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 4: Not kids get older.

399
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm because you know what it is. And I don't

400
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 2: know if it's because of the Internet. I don't think

401
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 2: we've had another movement like that when I think about

402
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: the you and Nick Kendricks and.

403
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like twenty sixteen, like Uzzi and Cardy

404
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 3: and them, they.

405
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 4: Had a movement.

406
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 5: But I will say it's because I know what you

407
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 5: talking about with Uzzi, especially because I'm from Delaware, from Philly.

408
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 5: But it was it's still just different, like I can't

409
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 5: really describe it, Like the way that the whole tailor

410
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 5: gang and like how we were dressing.

411
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 4: It was really different.

412
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 2: But the kids are doing that tozi them now.

413
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, we were the blog era.

414
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I would say, like the SoundCloud air like

415
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 3: trippy red and all of them like SoundCloud, and then

416
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 3: now it's more like the TikTok like the viral.

417
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

418
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then streamers as well, like you know, so, yeah,

419
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: we've had some good errors.

420
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: Man, I guess we don't know when the temperature changes

421
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: now because back in the day you could you can

422
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 2: see it on TV, you could hear it on radio.

423
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 2: Now in that kind of makes everything seem like it's

424
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 2: all yeah together, You don't you don't really see when

425
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: it's weird season or season. Nah.

426
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 3: See, I don't mean to keep disagreeing with you. I

427
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 3: think you just got to be tapped in. But that's

428
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 3: how it was back then too, Like you had to

429
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 3: be tapped in and know who the new up and

430
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 3: coming blog era rappers were, and then the older dudes

431
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: didn't really understand.

432
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: They're like, man, these dudes got on.

433
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 3: Tight pants and book bags like that ain't rap music,

434
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 3: so we look weird to them. It's just always the

435
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 3: next generation looks weird to the other general, so you

436
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: really don't like see them on their way up.

437
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: You really don't understand it.

438
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 2: Your pants, crazy.

439
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: Brow, your.

440
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 4: Essentially right now.

441
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 3: Back then those pants were tight h and them and

442
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 3: like American apparel getting like really tight hats.

443
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 4: You had the people going and doing it.

444
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: I remember with the.

445
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 3: US yeahs on like I'm shocked you had kids.

446
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 2: How tight they were?

447
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: Type of those pants were tight?

448
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: Bro, How often do you revisit the first Christian?

449
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: I say, I'm a lie before I answer a question.

450
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 3: I gotta stop doing that. You think that's smart, You're right.

451
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: I can't give it away though. Now. I listened to

452
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: it a lot because we perform it a lot.

453
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of like festivals and places where

454
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 3: they're like, can you come through and perform the whole

455
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 3: catalog or give us three songs off of there or

456
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 3: something like that. So I listened to it, and I

457
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 3: listened to it for inspiration too. Sometimes I like, I

458
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 3: sampled a couple of songs on this new one from

459
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 3: the old one. I like threw it in there you

460
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 3: wouldn't even know, but just to like keep the DNA.

461
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 4: There, Yeah, can you get can you tell me so

462
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 4: I can go?

463
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: You figure it out? Then I got to do it

464
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: again exactly and again and again because.

465
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 5: It feels literally I said that ear it feels like

466
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 5: the original cushion orangees even though it's new music.

467
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 4: But and a lot of artists can't do that, not

468
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 4: this far apart. H.

469
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 3: It's not it's not obvious stuff. It's nothing that you

470
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 3: would be like, oh, this is that. But if somebody

471
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: told you, you'd be like duh.

472
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: But what is it that you do that?

473
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 4: Is it the beat or the melody? Like what is

474
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 4: it that you hid in?

475
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: There's so many ways to manipulate music these days.

476
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, we just we just really, like I said, we

477
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 3: updated it, like we use new formulas for the same

478
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 3: thing that we already have. Like and then my producers,

479
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 3: uh Cardo, it sound never went out of style. And

480
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 3: even with him producing with like Cardi and all of that,

481
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 3: he still has his original drum kits and stuff like that.

482
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 3: So he's just getting right back in his bag. Sledgering.

483
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 3: I work with Mike and Keys and Problem and DJ

484
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 3: Quick and just like throwing a lot of ideas around

485
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 3: to make something.

486
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: That you know, like you said, remind you of the original.

487
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 2: How much is LA an influence?

488
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: I would say.

489
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 3: The La, like the lifestyle of LA is an influence.

490
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 3: I love LA, but I'm not from La. So I

491
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 3: didn't grow up like wanting to be a West Coast dude,

492
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 3: Like that's just how I.

493
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 1: Am, you know what I mean.

494
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 3: And being from Pittsburgh, we would probably resonate the most

495
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 3: with some place like LA or the Bay or even

496
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 3: like Detroit, Chicago, like we have a lot in common

497
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 3: with them too, But I wouldn't necessarily say like I'm

498
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 3: LA influenced, but I'm definitely embraced in LA like a mom,

499
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 3: just because of the similarities like in the production and

500
00:20:58,119 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: the way that we talk and the way that we dress.

501
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 3: Like a lot of people associated me with being a

502
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 3: West Coast artist.

503
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the Snoop affiliation as well.

504
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Snoop affiliation too, But that wasn't even just

505
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 3: like I wasn't like, yo, I need to be best

506
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 3: friends with Snoop Dogg. He heard my music and was like, man,

507
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,360
Speaker 3: this dude's tight. He embraced me, you know what I mean.

508
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 3: Like so that was like that, I'm grateful as heck

509
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 3: for that, Like you know what I mean, Like did

510
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 3: that ever get.

511
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 5: On your nerves though, because like you're not from Like

512
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 5: did you ever feel like I needed because we I

513
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 5: think we all thought you were from.

514
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 4: Very long time.

515
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 5: Just the whole look, the whole vibe, like that's on

516
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 5: the East Coast. Like I feel like the way you sound,

517
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 5: your look everything. I didn't know that people over this

518
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 5: way at all could look or emulate that, Like I

519
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 5: thought you had to go to La to look.

520
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's the thing. I wasn't even emulate nothing.

521
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: That's just how I am. Like that's just what I

522
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: be on.

523
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 3: Like there's pictures of me in high school on the

524
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 3: same vibe, and I listened to Dipset.

525
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: Like that's my favorite group.

526
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, like Camera on my favorite So yeah, I just

527
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 3: love I mean, like I think it's just my demeanor.

528
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 3: My swagger remind people more like West Coast smoking weed

529
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 3: for sure, being tatted, you know a lot of those things,

530
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 3: like the Chucks like you're saying, like you associate that

531
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 3: with people from the West Coast. And then my beat

532
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 3: selection too, is real funky, like it's more like top down,

533
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 3: right around type of music. And I think that came

534
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 3: more into play for me hanging out with currency, like

535
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 3: just being in New Orleans, we would just be more

536
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 3: on some smooth vibe type stuff rather than like really

537
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 3: turned up or trapped out type of music, and that

538
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 3: just became the you know, the style of beats that

539
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 3: you know, we both kind of went after.

540
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: I love how you keep Max B's name a lot.

541
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

542
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's on the new project. Yeah.

543
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: He's also one of my favorite artists as well. Yeah.

544
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh did you speak to them?

545
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: You said?

546
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 3: How often do I here and there? Yeah, especially now

547
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 3: that the album's coming out and he's coming home too. Yeah,

548
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: we talk here and there. It's nothing too crazy to

549
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 3: just be like, I see big bro.

550
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 2: How Didy'll get them on the project over the phone. Yeah,

551
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 2: that's just not good as that would be a yeah.

552
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, well the voice notes. It's easy to do it

553
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 3: on voice notes now and then just line it up.

554
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 3: Like I told you, we manipulated music these days.

555
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 2: So you take your vocal, didn't put the beat behind it.

556
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 3: I don't want people to start getting their friends in

557
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 3: jail on their records.

558
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: The whole album.

559
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: I don't know how much. I don't know, but don't

560
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: do it. They out of trouble.

561
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 2: The other thing I was gonna say too, Man, do

562
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: you see the moments in your life when like your

563
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 2: courage just went up, Like, for example, like when you

564
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 2: put out weed and boys, that's another level. You put

565
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 2: out uh the other black and yellow, that's another level,

566
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 2: and then see you again.

567
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: Come on.

568
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 2: That's every white person in America's favorite funeral.

569
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: Anthem favorite funeral. It is. Yeah, No, I think I had.

570
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 6: Uh.

571
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: I look at my career like like a basketball.

572
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 3: Player or something like that, like me being signed to Atlantic.

573
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: I did really well, like being a major artist. So

574
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 3: I look at it like that.

575
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 5: You just recently sold your home in Pittsburgh too, Yeah

576
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 5: all that the decision to do that, why just because

577
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 5: it was time or like because I know it's you know,

578
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 5: that was a that was when you were on your

579
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 5: come up and you know, like letting that go.

580
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, why because I just had my daughter and I

581
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 3: wanted to move my mom out to LA. She was

582
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 3: tired of she was staying in that house. She was

583
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 3: just tired of being there.

584
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

585
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 1: Wow, it wasn't like a bad house.

586
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 4: No, no, it's a nice house.

587
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 5: I just can't believe she hasn't already like moved to

588
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 5: LA at this point now, because.

589
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 2: You know, you got it's hard to get older people

590
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 2: to move out.

591
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 3: Of there, it is, I mean, yeah, just being from Pittsburgh,

592
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: like you know, She moved around a lot when we

593
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 3: were younger because of the military. So when she got

594
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 3: back to the burg, like she was just there, like

595
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 3: she was set up there. And when I left, that

596
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 3: was me leaving as an adult. But we hadn't lived

597
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 3: in the same city in a long time. So when

598
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: I had my daughter, she wanted to move out to

599
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 3: LA and it just made sense. Just go ahead and

600
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 3: you know, move on to the next chapter.

601
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 4: And she with y'all now living with y'all, doesn't live.

602
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: With me in LA.

603
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 3: She has her own house and you know, we're in

604
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: a good distance from each other where we see each

605
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 3: other all the time.

606
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 5: Okay, because I know people do that when they first

607
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 5: have babies, like just to get the extra help, have

608
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 5: mom there and just kind of step in.

609
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: It's pretty much like that. But she she has her

610
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 1: own spot, you know what I'm saying.

611
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 3: And it's super duper convenient because, like I said, I

612
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 3: haven't lived in the same city as my mom in

613
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 3: like fifteen years. So I'll be driving out of my

614
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 3: house and she'll be coming through the gates. So it's

615
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 3: super cool to just see my mom like randomly during

616
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 3: the day.

617
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 2: What you get with her grandkids yeah, she loves it.

618
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: Yo, she's like full time OG.

619
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 2: How do you feel about your children being open to

620
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 2: public scrutiny like motherfuckers on social media commenting?

621
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: And yeah, no, it is what it is like.

622
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 3: I feel like they're going to go through that anyway

623
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 3: at school, Like they guys snapchat and they be doing

624
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 3: all that stuff at school. So that's just the world

625
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 3: that we live in now. And like back in the day,

626
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 3: we used to rip on each other too, so we

627
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 3: just didn't have the computer to do it. But it

628
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 3: builds tough skin and it is what it is like.

629
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 3: I've always been able to still be confident in myself

630
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 3: and function and not crash out, you know, due to

631
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 3: what anybody says about me.

632
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: So I feel like they'll be all right.

633
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 2: If it's the week whenever you feel yourself about the

634
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 2: crash out or like no, no, no.

635
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 3: No, it's not the weirdest the confidence man, I breathe,

636
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 3: I do yoga, I believe in myself. I got a

637
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 3: higher calling. Yeah, and sometimes they might be right. I

638
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 3: do look funny sometimes my.

00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: Feet my feet are ugly or not ugly but messed up.

640
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 3: But like you can't get mad at like you know,

641
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 3: people pointing out your flaws because we're not perfect. So

642
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 3: if you point out a flaw, you might be right.

643
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 2: So you practice yoga.

644
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: I do hot yoga too. It'll be one hundred and

Speaker 2: I did that shit a couple of a couple of

647
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 2: I did like a week and a half ago with

648
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 2: my wife. I couldn't. I did it, But that's shit.

649
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: It is yoga.

650
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's like some old ladies in there. They go

651
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: every day. I'm like, y'all are gangster. They might do

652
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 3: it three times in one day.

653
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 4: I'm like, that's really gangsta.

654
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: But the thing I didn't like about it, they don't

655
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 2: give you no tutorial like you gotta. It's like you're

656
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 2: just just like double Dutch word up. It's just like

657
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: your hold up, what you mean do this?

658
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 3: It means it's more of a flow. Yeah, it's a flow.

659
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 3: So you watch everybody around you. You can look at

660
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 3: the instructor, you can look at you know, whoever makes

661
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 3: you comfortable in the room. Like you said you was

662
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 3: with your partner, so she probably went a couple of times,

663
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 3: so you get, you know, fill it out.

664
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: But it just helps you let go.

665
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: And there's a lot of stuff that you probably won't

666
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 3: be able to do it for a long time, but

667
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 3: you'll start to see progress.

668
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 1: And that's what it's about too. It's just about learning yourself.

669
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 2: Why don't you talk about stuff like that? I do?

670
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 3: I said, I said it in my song. I was

671
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 3: like she working out, we're doing yoga and hiking. I said,

672
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 3: I say it in my music and the new music hiking.

673
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I say it.

674
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 3: But like there's ways to do it and wrap me

675
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 3: music because at my age, people will quickly call you

676
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: unk and al yeah, no, no, no, I think said that.

677
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: He said, don't call me unk, call me big dog.

678
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:11,439
Speaker 1: That's the.

679
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 4: Y'all are not giving unk. He gives unk. Y'all don't

680
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 4: give no.

681
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm not unk. I could be unk. But if I'm

682
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: unk and I'm calling you nephew.

683
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: And you don't and you don't want me to do that,

684
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 2: three years, once you hit forty, you officially, well, them

685
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 2: is going to be my nephews.

686
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 3: Then that's a lot of people. That's what I'm saying though,

687
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 3: But like they want to be they don't want to

688
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 3: be nephews. So don't call me unk, but them, there's

689
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,479
Speaker 3: not wrong with being a un because un sign of respect.

690
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 3: But the the derogatory term of it is just like

691
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 3: out of style, out of day. We don't want to

692
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 3: hear that slow, you know, to not it's just in

693
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 3: a way that they're like, all right, you know what

694
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 3: I mean. It's not like advice that they really want

695
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 3: to like live up to. And that's what I'm putting

696
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 3: it in a form and in a way where I'm

697
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 3: packaging it where you still can see yourself doing this

698
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 3: in the next couple of years. You could be twenty

699
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 3: three and listen to my music and be like, I'm

700
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 3: just a little bit more advanced.

701
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm just you know what I mean, I'm

702
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: on a different vibe. I'm on another level.

703
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 3: And then a lot of the stuff that I say

704
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 3: too is personal to me, so it's not even really

705
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 3: for you to actually go out and do. I'm just explaining,

706
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 3: you know, the things that are important to me, and

707
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 3: I hope that inspires you.

708
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: So, you know, kids, respect though, respect it's like old

709
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 2: nigga old ahead, yeah, old head, oldhead still okay o,

710
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 2: g oh head still.

00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 4: And you know how you say oh head.

712
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 5: Like if you're like yo, oh hey, that's that's disrespectful me.

713
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 3: Like, yo oh hey, whatever's yo old head is like

714
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 3: that sounded real fragile, like.

715
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 4: Get out of the way from laid out in the

716
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 4: street or.

717
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 5: Something like that.

718
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: No, I love getting older. I think certain people get

719
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: better when they get older.

720
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 3: They start to you know, different stages of their life,

721
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 3: reveals things that their twenties and thirties never have. So

722
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 3: I think that, you know, I'm pretty much on my

723
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 3: way to that, and I'm enjoying myself, like at the

724
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 3: age that I'm at. I love being this age.

725
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: I love telling people my age and then being like

726
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: damn because it catches a lot of people off guard.

727
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: But it is what it is though.

728
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 2: But that's what I like about you opening up about

729
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: the yoga and the hiking and whatever other mindfulness things.

730
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 2: You may be right because you talk about how first

731
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 2: chrishion Ards juice influenced the generation of stoners. I'm like, well, damn,

732
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 2: what's this part two gonna influence?

733
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: See that's the thing about the first Christian orange juice.

734
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 3: It did inspire a lot of stoners, but it created

735
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 3: a lot of bosses too. A lot of people bossed

736
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 3: up and did things on their own and put their

737
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 3: teams on and they're successful now based off of listening

738
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 3: to Cushion Orange Juice or that era, a lot of

739
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 3: people was like, Yo, I'm grab a camera or I'm

740
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 3: gonna start promoting shows, or I'm gonna start a clothing

741
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 3: line or I'm gonna start a blog or whatever whatever,

742
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 3: and they're still like they're successful. So like that's what

743
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 3: kush norms used to is gonna do as well. It's

744
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: positive thinking. It ain't hunk, So it's gonna spark you

745
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 3: know a lot of bosses, a lot of young players

746
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 3: and a lot of women who boss up as well

747
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 3: and expect you know, the same from you know what

748
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 3: I mean. So it's just going to create a really

749
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 3: a really cool energy for people to creat And.

750
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: That's what I want.

751
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 5: You said, getting older, you're getting better at things. What

752
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:34,479
Speaker 5: have you gotten better at?

753
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 3: Uh? Physically, I've gotten better, decision making, I've gotten better,

754
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 3: patience wise, I've gotten better, creatively, I've gotten better and

755
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 3: just as all around, like human being.

756
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: Like that's that's my main focus.

757
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 3: Like when I was younger, I was focused on being

758
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 3: the best artist or the best performer or the flyes nigga,

759
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 3: like now I just care about being adope, being like

760
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: and being happy for that day. Like, that's all I

761
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 3: care about. As long as I'm happy at this moment

762
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 3: in this day, I'm good. And I try to live

763
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 3: every day like we'll not try to live every day.

764
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: I do live every day like that.

765
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 5: Since you like, there are people that are younger than you,

766
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 5: just in music that I'm sure call you about different things,

767
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 5: because creatively your music does inspire people like you mentioned,

768
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 5: but like, just as a dad and in a relationship,

769
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 5: a lot of your stuff is public. Like I saw

770
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 5: a conversation an interview where I think it was Ambert.

771
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 5: She was talking about you guys had to sit down

772
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 5: Sebastian have a conversation he found her only fans or

773
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 5: something like that. How do you guide first of all

774
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 5: yourself and have that conversation with your son, But when

775
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 5: your friends your peers are calling you like yo, my

776
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 5: girl's doing this online or like whatever, what's your conversation

777
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 5: with people? Because you handle things so well and so gracefully.

778
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 3: Nah, I think I don't. I don't expect everybody to

779
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 3: handle things the way that I do. So my advice

780
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 3: is sometimes is like man, shit be.

781
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 1: Fucked up dog like, that's it. That's just how it is.

782
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 3: But you have to accept it and you have to

783
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 3: understand that that's a part of it as well. And

784
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 3: it be like that sometimes. But we make these decisions

785
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 3: based off of what we think we can handle and

786
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 3: what we can't handle. So or you're given a lot

787
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 3: of responsibility based off of what you can handle and

788
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 3: you don't even know you ready for it like that.

789
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 3: So if you really want this, you're gonna deal with

790
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 3: the good.

791
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: And the bad. Like I'm built for it.

792
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 3: I know how to smile, I know how to you know,

793
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 3: put on a face in front of people who I

794
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 3: know might have talked shit on me or tried to

795
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 3: cut my throat or one up on you know what

796
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 3: I mean.

797
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: But it is what it is.

798
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 3: Well, I don't get no further by exposing all of that.

799
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 3: I get further just by being me. But a lot

800
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 3: of people ain't built for it like that.

801
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 5: So you know, you really you really got to be

802
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 5: like that as a parent, Are you ever really ready

803
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 5: to have those like really public conversations with us, Like

804
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 5: that's such a public thing to have to talk about

805
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 5: in your child to see, and then in private you

806
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 5: have to deal with it. But then also in public,

807
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 5: you have to deal with it because then y'all talk

808
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 5: about the fact that it happened.

809
00:33:58,840 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: I think, like.

810
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 3: Me, I just keep it pushing, like as long as

811
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: I'm good, Like in the household, you're gonna have to

812
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 3: deal with that or things like that, regardless if it's

813
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 3: not even directly involved with you. You're still gonna have

814
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 3: to have some type of conversation like that with your kid.

815
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 3: And it's not easy for anybody. So as soon as

816
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 3: they start finding that stuff or looking at that stuff

817
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 3: or hearing things about you know, it might be their parent,

818
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 3: it might be their sibling, it might be you know

819
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 3: what I mean, it could be whatever.

820
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 1: There's no age limit to that.

821
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 3: Either it happens through their teens, it's gonna happen in

822
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 3: their twenties.

823
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: Oh I heard your son is out here. Da da

824
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: da da da. Right.

825
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 3: I don't even know what that's like yet, But we

826
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 3: go through the stages. Every parent's gonna go through the stage.

827
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 3: But as far as publicly, I don't live my life

828
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 3: for the public, so I don't even like, I don't

829
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 3: even consider that when I'm making my moves.

830
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: I don't care like I don't hear it, I don't

831
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 1: digest it. It's not it ain't real to me.

832
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 3: And if it pops up, then it's something that I

833
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, I'll deal with it in

834
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: the moment, but like I ain't tripping on.

835
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: None of that.

836
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 2: Are you going to keep secrets from your kids?

837
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: What kind of secrets? Just in general?

838
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 2: Like you know, always tell people that you know, you

839
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 2: should always have conversations with your parents because you'll find

840
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: out that they had a life before they were your parents.

841
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think having how old are your kids?

842
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 2: Sixteen nine sixty three.

843
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, having a twelve year old, it's like I'm finding

844
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 3: out that they know way more than.

845
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: You actually think that they know.

846
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 3: So it's hard to keep secrets when they're telling you

847
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 3: shit that they know that you thought that they didn't know.

848
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 3: So it's like, damn you, there ain't no secrets, like

849
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 3: for real, for real you I'm I didn't even know

850
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 3: I was going to have to explain that to you.

851
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 3: But it's just part of it, like because I think

852
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 3: the benefit of that is them not having to hear

853
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 3: it from somebody else. I was raised by my cousins,

854
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 3: and you know what, I mean a bunch of eighteen

855
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 3: year olds and twenty year olds when I was his age,

856
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 3: so I was learning things a little bit differently, Like

857
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 3: the filter was totally different. So I would rather be

858
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 3: able to give my kids.

859
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 1: That knowledge than like the streets. Yeah, hell yeah, because

860
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen.

861
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 2: What is a drake move with?

862
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: What's what's a drake? A very smart business decision? I know,

863
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 3: that's right, That's what a drake move is.

864
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 2: You know what I want to ask you to, man,

865
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 2: You've been a mentor to a lot of great people.

866
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 2: And I recently saw this thing called the Mount Rushmore

867
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: White rappers and the good brother mac Miller was on it.

868
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: You know how.

869
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw it, but how did

870
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: that make you feel? Knowing that you was a mentor

871
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 2: to He's the greatest rapper was Eminem, it was mac Miller.

872
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: They shouldn't be separating white rappers and black rappers. They're

873
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 1: all rappers.

874
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 3: And mc miller is an amazing artist, bro, Like I

875
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 3: watched some you know, come from just being a kid

876
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,760
Speaker 3: in the studio to like really changing how people digest

877
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 3: and listen to music, like on his own And of

878
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 3: course we started he started like kind of after I

879
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 3: was doing what I was doing, so it was people

880
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 3: associated me and him together like like.

881
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 1: I was doing that for him or something like that.

882
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,720
Speaker 3: But he was just inspired by what he was around,

883
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 3: and as soon as he like branched off and started

884
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 3: doing his thing, he gained his own identity, his own

885
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 3: fan base, his own expectations of what his music is,

886
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 3: and his own you know, love and legacy for what

887
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 3: his music is.

888
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: So I love I love that kid.

889
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 2: I don't even know if this is a question you

890
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,400

892
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,680

Speaker 1: he's not here, you know what I mean.

910
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,440

920
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 3: Nah, not really, because I knew him personally, so we

921
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: would have conversations and you know, he was like I think,

922
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 3: out of respect, everybody don't speak on like how what

923
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 3: he was dealing with, you know what I'm saying, So

924
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 3: we just like talk about his legacy. But it was

925
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 3: it was it was a lot to see him go

926
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 3: through that.

927
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, just legacy conversations wise, what were some like

928
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,399

Speaker 5: you and Macnilla.

930
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 3: Really just how talented he was, like just playing all

931
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 3: the instruments and like in the studio creating like he

932
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 3: created totally different than I did. And just watching him

933
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,439
Speaker 3: like put stuff together or like bring his ideas to life.

934
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: That was really fun for me. And like seeing him

935
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 3: on stage too. He is a really good performer as well.

936
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, just to see you smile mm hmm. Was that

937
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 7: a difficult record? No, okay, No, I like to make

938
00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 7: like I like to make real songs. Yeah, yeah, it was,

939
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 7: Like I said, it was in a moment, and I

940
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 7: talk about my mom on there. I talk about like

941
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 7: the original like what was going on when I first

942
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,800
Speaker 7: started making music and I brought it till now, and

943
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 7: then I talk.

944
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 3: About my siblings who passed away on there as well.

945
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 3: So no, it's not difficult for me.

946
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 2: Is it therapeutic in a way?

947
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah?

948
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I will say that. I think it's

949
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 3: just like for me, I have to talk about everything,

950
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,840
Speaker 3: like I can't just I can't.

951
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 1: Just give you like one side of like what's going.

952
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 3: On, and a lot of people they may or may

953
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 3: not want to hear that, But for the people who do,

954
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 3: I make sure that that stuff is there, and I

955
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 3: make sure that it's current and that it's real for

956
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 3: them to go through too.

957
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 2: The thing I like about you Will is like you

958
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 2: I've never seen you do no goofy shit fifteen years

959
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 2: and that's hard being an artist of your caliber, how

960
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 2: do you keep from doing goofy?

961
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 4: And of your age too.

962
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 3: You were young, I think, being from Pigs, got done

963
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 3: all my goofy shit before the camera was on, so

964
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 3: like I didn't need to, you know, get to my

965
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,400
Speaker 3: twenties and you know, learn.

966
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:11,240
Speaker 1: Those same lessons.

967
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 3: I was on some bars shit, and everybody around me

968
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 3: you gotta be on my boss level or like we

969
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 3: can't communicate. And that was the main thing, is like,

970
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 3: you know, not only elevating my mind, but elevating the

971
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 3: minds of the people around me, and just taking it

972
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 3: to the next level and continuing to take it to

973
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 3: the next level.

974
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: Because I could have.

975
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: Got to a point where I was satisfied, but I

976
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 3: was like, now I'm gonna keep working, I'm gonna keep going,

977
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 3: and even at this point, now I see things that

978
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 3: people don't even see for myself. So these are the

979
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 3: things that I'm going after while I'm doing what I'm doing.

980
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 2: Even the team, you know, I see Will's still around.

00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 3: good time to do something like that, but it wasn't.

Speaker 3: you know, public yet. So you buy into companies, you

1059
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 3: have ownership, you have percentage.

1060
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 1: There's a lot of different.

1061
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 3: Ways to you know, become a part owner or just

1062
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 3: be a part of a business without starting it. And

1063
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 3: that's where you know, the best the best decisions come in.

1064
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 3: And it's all about timing too. Oh, p f L

1065
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 3: as well. I don't know if you guys ever heard

1066
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 3: of Professional Fighters League, but I'm involved with them too.

00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 3: We just bought Bellator's and UFC and there's PFL. That's yeah, yeah,

1068
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 3: I'm down with them too.

1069
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 2: And you gotta fight in one of those.

1070
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: No, I don't think I'm a fighter. I don't think amateur.

1071
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 2: You built for that.

1072
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 3: I'm definitely built for it, But I don't want to

1073
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 3: do it, like that's not what I trained or I

1074
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 3: just trained to feel good.

1075
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:01,919
Speaker 1: I don't.

1076
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,839
Speaker 3: I don't train to you know, risk my life. Those

1077
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 3: dudes risk their lives in there. Like somebody could die,

1078
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 3: and like what's the point of me getting in there

1079
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,800
Speaker 3: and like risking half of my face not working to

1080
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,280
Speaker 3: just to you know what I mean, entertain everybody.

1081
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: Like what I do is on stage and I'm good

1082
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: with that.

1083
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 2: Like my celebrity squabbles though, like just to keep people

1084
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: out of trouble. Like I saw too Damn, who was it?

1085
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:27,400
Speaker 2: I just seen two rappers square up?

1086
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1087
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 3: I think I think like rappers should meet in the

1088
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 3: gym and they should fight, for sure, like with with gloves, mouthpiece,

1089
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 3: with a clock, you know, like you.

1090
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: Should set it up like if you really got a

1091
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:41,320
Speaker 1: problem with somebody.

1092
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 3: And that's the thing about like training martial arts or

1093
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 3: just any type of you know, combat sport is like

1094
