0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:45.280
<v Speaker 1>did the Gangster girls thing happen? Lake Chezy? So Lake Yeah,

0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Lake Chezy twenty twenty one when I uh just like

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>got made my mind up and got focused and start

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:58.040
<v Speaker 1>doing it, like just start connecting immediately on the underground,

0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and Lake Cheesy have been and hollering at me and

0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.640
<v Speaker 1>I had it was a few like La Summers. Tool

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>was supposed to be a Gangster Grills, but I just

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:10.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel like I wanted it to be a like

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to be a Gangster Grills when I make

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>a Gangster Grills, so I wanted to feel like a

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>mixtape but like an album at the same time. So

0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:21.160
<v Speaker 1>that's what this hot shot is. But the conversation been

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 1>going on for a year. And the crazy thing is,

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.279
<v Speaker 1>you know Lake reached out to me. You know, usually

0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:30.840
<v Speaker 1>it's people like man, I need a Gangster Grills, dying

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>for it, and it's always been a goal of mine

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.279
<v Speaker 1>because when I was growing up, Gangster Grills was that ship.

0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Of course, that's all you heard. So like, this is

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:44.440
<v Speaker 1>definitely something off the bucket list, and you know, Lake

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>was hitting me, but I didn't really think nothing of it.

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm just thinking he's saluting, Hey, we should

0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 1>do a project. And you know how to end well.

0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Lake ain't an industry, Nigga industry for sure, but you

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>know how a lot of people just be like, Hey,

0:04:56.880 --> 0:05:02.480
<v Speaker 1>let's work, let's do something. It never happens so and really, like,

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 1>really just take it too serious. And then I was

<v Speaker 1>but like, you know, financials and the shit that I

0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:30.679
<v Speaker 1>could do and the type of different business calls I'm getting,

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:35.880

<v Speaker 1>I've been getting like multi million dollar offers for your catalog. Yeah,

0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's like I feel like I ain't even hit

0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.720
<v Speaker 1>that fucking peak or got to a place where we

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:54.640
<v Speaker 1>invested because I haven't spent no money on marketing or

0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:58.960
<v Speaker 1>anything at all yet. Yeah. Because how okay, So since

0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 1>leeveen Rock Nation, how many projects have you dropped with Empire?

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.880

<v Speaker 1>it's been two years exactly, well two years and a

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>month exactly in that time. How many projects do you

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:16.600

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 1>at the board a little bit different and setting goals

0:08:58.080 --> 0:08:59.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit different because it's like, like I said,

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.000

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to get fucking fifteen to twenty million. Do you feel

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 1>like you could ever do the major label thing because

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>you've been so like I feel like you've been thriving

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 1>on being under empire, being in a situation where you

0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:47.520
<v Speaker 1>call your shots. You could drop it any time you want. Yeah,

0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:51.319
<v Speaker 1>the major the major thing isn't for me, just how

0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:53.480
<v Speaker 1>just the type of person that I am and how

0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I grew up Like bro, I got like a serious

0:09:56.840 --> 0:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>problem with authority, you know what I mean. You put

0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.160
<v Speaker 1>yourself in a major situation. It worked for every It

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>worked for different people, so everybody thing is different. But

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:11.600
<v Speaker 1>for me specifically, I hate having to go explain why

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.120
<v Speaker 1>my record is tight and why it might work and

0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:17.880
<v Speaker 1>why it's necessary when it's clearly this is what I'm

0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>in the building for for what I do, you know

0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 1>what I mean? So I don't think the Major thing

0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:24.960
<v Speaker 1>is my It's not my cup of tea at all.

0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Because even before I signed, they was giving me one

0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>hundred grand for a project. For each project, and I

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:34.000
<v Speaker 1>was just coming out you know what I mean. It's

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:38.080
<v Speaker 1>because I understand business in the hustle. So I had

0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 1>what I realized when I signed the Rock Nation already

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:47.160
<v Speaker 1>had everything that a label got besides radio, already had

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:49.679
<v Speaker 1>my own digital marketing team. I already had my own

0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 1>PR and then I got you know, I'm the strategic partner.

0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>So it's like I pretty much got like the meat

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 1>and bones of what a label did, because all I

0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>did was signed, and you know that's another story, but yeah,

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I never I never signed to a major ever, pretty

0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:10.160
<v Speaker 1>much been just giving you an advance. At that point,

0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.320
<v Speaker 1>It's like I'm signing for an advance and radio play

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:15.559
<v Speaker 1>that never happened, right, And I'm in it. I'm not

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.720
<v Speaker 1>in it for the fame, like I'm in it because

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I like to make music, but I love to hustle

0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:23.160
<v Speaker 1>and be able to do. I love to be active,

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and I love challenges and shit, so like, I don't

0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:29.880
<v Speaker 1>want to put myself in another situation where the challenges

0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:33.559
<v Speaker 1>me just getting music put out and then if the

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:37.959
<v Speaker 1>shit don't perform how it expected, then everybody moving on

0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:41.959
<v Speaker 1>to the fucking other one hundred thousand artists that I

0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 1>don't fuck that like I'm in it. Like I was

0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:50.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna say, like, like, you're obviously famous, right, You're not

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:54.079
<v Speaker 1>like a superstar, but like you know, amongst the West

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Coast hip hop world, you are one of them ones,

0:11:57.400 --> 0:11:59.679
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean? Yeah, but pretty much any

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.319
<v Speaker 1>city y'all hit, somebody gonna notice men, Right. But I

0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>do feel like a lot of artists they get into

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:06.000
<v Speaker 1>this shit and they focus on the wrong shit, which

0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>is like being famous or oh man, the look academics

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:11.920
<v Speaker 1>ain't post me or all that type of shit. And

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it's like, I feel like you're doing so much better

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.240
<v Speaker 1>than a lot of these guys because you kind of

0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 1>are approaching the game from a whole different perspective, Like

0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:22.959
<v Speaker 1>you're putting your money in the right shit. You're like

0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:26.559
<v Speaker 1>using the music as a vehicle to set up like

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:29.000
<v Speaker 1>long term wealth. You know what I'm saying exactly. I'm

0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.160
<v Speaker 1>in it for the long game because that's where that's

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.360
<v Speaker 1>where the money is at in the long game. And

0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:36.960
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of artists got like this Cinderella

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 1>idealism in their head, which it also stemmed from the streets.

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Think about it in the streets. I'm broke one day,

0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.559
<v Speaker 1>I fuck around and hit a lickt and then I'm

0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>up shining the next day, you know what I mean? Now,

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Like business, business don't work like that. You gotta put

0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:57.280
<v Speaker 1>in the footwork and really grind it out. So a

0:12:57.320 --> 0:12:59.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of people do it to get that advance and

0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:01.640
<v Speaker 1>to get shipped like this and this, and then be

0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 1>broke and then and then get to complaining about a

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.840
<v Speaker 1>situation that they took you signed. It's like, yo, you complaining,

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:10.640
<v Speaker 1>but you signed the paperwork, right, You know what I mean?

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>For you? Man, Like I know you you in d Smoke,

0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:19.679
<v Speaker 1>partnered up and bought Broadway Gym Smoke. I've heard you've

0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.600
<v Speaker 1>been doing other stuff in the real estate game. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I just got a house, new crib. Yeah are you

0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:29.400
<v Speaker 1>doing anything? Are you just everything? Like all the ship

0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 1>for me to move in just got finished, So all

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:33.800
<v Speaker 1>the little work that I had to do and shit,

0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:35.839
<v Speaker 1>so I'm feeling good about it. I was gonna say, you,

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:37.840
<v Speaker 1>like diving in pretty pretty tough on the real estate

0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.520
<v Speaker 1>in terms of just like investing. Nah, I ain't gonna

0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:42.760
<v Speaker 1>sit here in front like that. But if an opportunity

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:45.679
<v Speaker 1>present itself, and then at the time, if I got

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:48.839
<v Speaker 1>the liquid to do it, then I do it. But

0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:54.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm really just focused on on music, just getting my

0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:58.600
<v Speaker 1>brand together and content. I want to get into these movies. Hey,

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:02.079
<v Speaker 1>for real, you think you act? I definitely could act.

0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>I did a few roles and shit, you know the

0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:08.200
<v Speaker 1>movie shit, it's this term that got called hurry up

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.439
<v Speaker 1>and wait. So I didn't shot some shit like a

0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:15.120
<v Speaker 1>year ago. Some two years ago they still not release yeah,

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.679
<v Speaker 1>like to b shit, Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. Well one

0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:21.880
<v Speaker 1>of them is like an actual feature film. Oh fire. Yeah,

0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>you think you're they're gonna typecast you. I'm pretty type cast.

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.680
<v Speaker 1>But it's like some nineteen so I think I spoke

0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.200
<v Speaker 1>on them before. On here. I'm like, it's in the

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>seventies when hip hop first started. So I'm like a

0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:40.000
<v Speaker 1>fucking like a gangster security. Do they have to cover

0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:43.080
<v Speaker 1>your your tats up? Yeah? They make up me down?

0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.600
<v Speaker 1>What's that like? Like? Seeing yourself without tattoos for like

0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:50.560
<v Speaker 1>a couple of days? That shit is dope? Like I

0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:52.320
<v Speaker 1>want to I actually want to get some of this

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 1>shit removed, But I just got something on my face,

0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>which the you know, the ideal behind that is I'm

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.720
<v Speaker 1>building this company up to sell it for one hundred million.

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>So when I get that check, I'm getting this shit

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:08.240
<v Speaker 1>removed the blue T shirt. Which tattoo would you get removed? First?

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.800
<v Speaker 1>By the way that shit hurts, I don't know. I

0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:14.760
<v Speaker 1>got it, like I got a lot of shit, Like

0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:17.280
<v Speaker 1>I was like a scratch paper at one time, letting

0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>my homies practice on me and shit. So your BG tattoo,

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:24.360
<v Speaker 1>How painful was that? Cause it's like all just dark ink.

0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:28.720
<v Speaker 1>It actually wasn't that painful because the only thing that

0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>I remember that always stand out is when you start

0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:35.040
<v Speaker 1>getting under the orange pit, I'm like, bro, don't worry

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>about that. They ain't gonna see under my shit anyway.

0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 1>That shit hurt. It's kind of like the places you

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:44.000
<v Speaker 1>can see that usually hurt the most. Yeah, yeah, that's yeah.

0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:48.120
<v Speaker 1>I have a few tattoos in like right here. That

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>shit hurt. Yeah, I want to get a few more.

0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Like at first it was like, damn, I want to act,

0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:56.200
<v Speaker 1>But now with this makeup shit and technology, I'm good.

0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to. I actually wanted to get permanent gold teeth, right.

0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I've been wanting to do that since I was like fifteen,

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's like I wanted That's one thing that is

0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.000
<v Speaker 1>definitely you still want to do that, Yeah, but it

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>don't do that, bro, but it's gonna be difficult, you know,

0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>getting rolls because I would love to fucking do some

0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:18.760
<v Speaker 1>shit like iced tea, play a fucking cop or just

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:21.720
<v Speaker 1>get the joint you pop in and you pop out. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:24.520
<v Speaker 1>get this the all right, listen. I don't know anybody

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>who got permanence that are like that breath don't smell

0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:31.640
<v Speaker 1>like shit. All their breath stinks, and nobody actually feels

0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:33.480
<v Speaker 1>like it was a good idea like two years later, right,

0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>you gotta brush your teeth like like like it's just

0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 1>so much. It's just a lot of maintenance. It's a

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of fucking maintenance. You could go to Mexico and

0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 1>get that shit though done for the low ski for sure,

0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 1>just go to t J. I don't want to come

0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:48.760
<v Speaker 1>back with no big horse gold teeth though it look

0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:52.840
<v Speaker 1>like AD, but we'll go AD. Got them chompers, I

0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:56.200
<v Speaker 1>got my teeth. My teeth blew out right. But it's

0:16:56.320 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>like I felt like if I get like a perfect

0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>set of whites, it kind of steal from the characteristics

0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:07.560
<v Speaker 1>of my shit, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah,

0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:11.399
<v Speaker 1>I like the crooked chip Tooth, Brown Tooth's mouth. Fuck it,

0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm thugging. It is what I didn't live, the life

0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:17.040
<v Speaker 1>that lets you know some shit didn't happen. I love it.

0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:21.639
<v Speaker 1>So no features on the Gangster Girls. No, actually I

0:17:21.720 --> 0:17:24.720
<v Speaker 1>got a hook from RJ. Okay, I got a hook

0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 1>from RJ. But outside of that, like my you know,

0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:30.159
<v Speaker 1>I love taking projects to the face man, because I

0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:33.640
<v Speaker 1>record at the crib or at my office and it's

0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:37.280
<v Speaker 1>just like, you know, super comfortable. I think that's why

0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:39.480
<v Speaker 1>it just come out so much. It's like I'm not

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:41.879
<v Speaker 1>in the pressure like I'm in a twelve hour session.

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.440
<v Speaker 1>I gotta hurry up and do this. Like I get

0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:48.359
<v Speaker 1>to ride around, listen to beats, rap, shit in my voice, memo,

0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:54.880
<v Speaker 1>come home, record through my other work. So you know, yeah,

0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 1>I enjoy doing that for you. Like I know, doing

0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.920
<v Speaker 1>your tour like is a big deal because I feel

0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:05.080
<v Speaker 1>like you're kind of doing something that a lot of

0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:08.280
<v Speaker 1>LA artists have had trouble doing, and that's like doing

0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:11.080
<v Speaker 1>like a national tour, you know. And I think like

0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:14.400
<v Speaker 1>a lot of that is just the result of, like shit,

0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the love of the fifteen projects straight of just you know,

0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:23.360
<v Speaker 1>building your monthly listeners. And I think like I've noticed

0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:26.159
<v Speaker 1>like that for you because I think we always look

0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.480
<v Speaker 1>at a lot of quote unquote LA rappers as having

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a certain ceiling. But I do feel like you've done

0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:32.720
<v Speaker 1>a good job of like starting to break out of

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:35.800
<v Speaker 1>what that ceiling looks like, for sure. For sure. Like

0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:40.000
<v Speaker 1>my goal, my goal in the culture and my contribution

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:44.879
<v Speaker 1>is to is to bring something new to LA And

0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:49.119
<v Speaker 1>when I say new is you know, our culture and

0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the way we operate out here is like to chill,

0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:55.080
<v Speaker 1>hang and bang shit. And it also spilled over into

0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the hustle. So a lot of people do the minimum

0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:02.800
<v Speaker 1>and expect the maximum. And you know, another one of

0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:06.840
<v Speaker 1>my things with branding is perception and making it impossible

0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:12.320
<v Speaker 1>possible and seeing you know, like where other people don't see.

0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:15.359
<v Speaker 1>And you know, it is a market for us on

0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:17.560
<v Speaker 1>a touring road, but you got to step out and

0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:21.600
<v Speaker 1>build that shit up. So my goal is to you know,

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:25.720
<v Speaker 1>just show motherfuckers that's coming up after me that yeah,

0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:30.360
<v Speaker 1>you could make millions as a West Coast artist doing

0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 1>West Coast shit. We got to just go open up

0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.440
<v Speaker 1>these markets that fuck with us. So you know, you

0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.359
<v Speaker 1>may go do a show I didn't have shows that

0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:41.160
<v Speaker 1>I did, Like when I did my very first tour,

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.000
<v Speaker 1>bro that shit was. It was humbling, first of all,

0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:47.159
<v Speaker 1>but it didn't make me want to quit. It's like

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 1>when I first got my first dope sack, like I

0:19:49.359 --> 0:19:52.359
<v Speaker 1>had a quarter piece and it took me forever to

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.119
<v Speaker 1>sell that shit, you know what I'm saying. But I

0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:57.080
<v Speaker 1>kept going. So I didn't have shows where it's fucking

0:19:57.280 --> 0:19:59.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty people there, you know what I mean, and a

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:02.520
<v Speaker 1>five and it cap wrong right, and I rocked it

0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:08.280
<v Speaker 1>like it was you know. Yeah, but that shit, that

0:20:08.400 --> 0:20:10.680
<v Speaker 1>shit make a lot of people running hide from it

0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:14.480
<v Speaker 1>because you're putting yourself out there and you know, you're

0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:17.400
<v Speaker 1>creating this image of I'm already on and I got

0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 1>all this shit. So the steps that you gotta take,

0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people put they mind to where this

0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:27.280
<v Speaker 1>image is fake it till you make it. Already got it,

0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:31.080
<v Speaker 1>so when it's time to do this shit, it's like

0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 1>it don't mess it. Don't mess with your brand, so

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:36.639
<v Speaker 1>you can't really grow. But my whole thing is to

0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:40.080
<v Speaker 1>just you know, let motherfuckers know it is money and touring.

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 1>We do got a market, and like you could make

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:47.040
<v Speaker 1>ms like independent, and you don't need to fucking go

0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:50.720
<v Speaker 1>to a label and how this whole fake shit going on?

0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:53.160
<v Speaker 1>And hope that you hit the lot of right, because

0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:55.119
<v Speaker 1>that's really what it is. You got to hit. If

0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:56.600
<v Speaker 1>you're going to sign to a major, you kind of

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 1>got to hit the lot of because you kind of

0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:00.920
<v Speaker 1>need a hit record to happen for sure. And even

0:21:01.000 --> 0:21:05.120
<v Speaker 1>then maybe you don't recoup, and then at your fuck,

<v Speaker 1>customer service, the selection of premium cannabis, the experience is

0:23:01.720 --> 0:23:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a customer that you get when you walk into the

0:23:03.920 --> 0:23:07.160
<v Speaker 1>building in Las Vegas is bar none the best. It's

<v Speaker 1>out to Hardean man. That's the family man. Go if

0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:37.119
<v Speaker 1>you're in Vegas, pull up on the man Hardean Las Vegas.

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>It's set up to never recope. Look, the average artist,

0:23:41.840 --> 0:23:44.840
<v Speaker 1>ninety percent of niggas deals is like a royalty deal.

0:23:45.040 --> 0:23:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Even niggas that say they got JVS, this shit be

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:52.840
<v Speaker 1>fucking fluff for a headline. So it's like on average,

0:23:52.840 --> 0:23:56.879
<v Speaker 1>it's an eighty five fifteen type shit or twelve percent royalty. Right,

0:23:57.440 --> 0:24:00.320
<v Speaker 1>But what they don't tell you is that when they

0:24:00.400 --> 0:24:03.440
<v Speaker 1>spend a million on you and you recoop, you could

0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:06.960
<v Speaker 1>make five million. But or let's just let's break it

0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:10.200
<v Speaker 1>down even smaller. They spend one hundred thousand on you,

0:24:11.000 --> 0:24:14.560
<v Speaker 1>and you make two hundred thousand, you really only recoup

0:24:14.680 --> 0:24:18.920
<v Speaker 1>thirty thousand dollars, right, because you're cooping. Yeah, it's it's

0:24:19.119 --> 0:24:22.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty much for every dollar that So let's say you

0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:25.879
<v Speaker 1>have a ten percent royalty deal, right, just that's an

0:24:26.080 --> 0:24:30.159
<v Speaker 1>even number. So essentially every ten dollars that comes in

0:24:30.200 --> 0:24:32.719
<v Speaker 1>out of one hundred goes towards paying your balance off. Right,

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:35.440
<v Speaker 1>the rest of it they just put it just got free.

0:24:35.560 --> 0:24:37.440
<v Speaker 1>So it's like you not recoop, but we made a

0:24:37.520 --> 0:24:40.880
<v Speaker 1>shitload of money. That's for you to really recoup off

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 1>that hundred. Your music needs to make a million. If

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:45.760
<v Speaker 1>you're on a ten percent rate exactly, then you how

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you recoop and then you start getting a royalty show

0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:50.560
<v Speaker 1>how much is how much streams you really need to

0:24:50.600 --> 0:24:52.359
<v Speaker 1>do to make a million dollars off of a record

0:24:52.440 --> 0:24:54.840
<v Speaker 1>or an album? It's it's a serious amount exactly, And

0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:59.359
<v Speaker 1>it's like that's why you know, people complain about these deals,

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:02.320
<v Speaker 1>and a deal don't get restructured. What they do is

0:25:02.440 --> 0:25:06.280
<v Speaker 1>they don't hesitate to give you more money for them.

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>It's a great business, fucking yeah exactly. It's not like

0:25:08.960 --> 0:25:12.240
<v Speaker 1>they didn't make no money. They actually you didn't. You

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:15.560
<v Speaker 1>just didn't recoop. But we made money. So, oh man,

0:25:15.600 --> 0:25:18.280
<v Speaker 1>you got a problem. We love you. Here's another million

0:25:18.320 --> 0:25:21.880
<v Speaker 1>dollars drop an album. Yeah, here goes because we made

0:25:22.040 --> 0:25:25.200
<v Speaker 1>a shipload of money already. It should be happening with

0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:27.399
<v Speaker 1>so many artists that I know. Well, they'll complain, but

0:25:27.480 --> 0:25:29.760
<v Speaker 1>then they'll they'll take the advance. Yeah, because it's like,

0:25:29.800 --> 0:25:32.399
<v Speaker 1>all right, take the advance because what they complaining about

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:35.640
<v Speaker 1>they need money. Okay, cool, here's money. Here goes some money.

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:38.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, you better tour. Yeah, we put a band

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 1>aid over some ship that needs stifles and stitches, and

0:25:41.920 --> 0:25:44.640
<v Speaker 1>now you got more money to recoop. You've done. You've

0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:47.440
<v Speaker 1>dug your whole deeper with the label. But that there

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:52.119
<v Speaker 1>is something that people I think have a uh so

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>if you aren't recouped, it's not so. I think normal

0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:58.640
<v Speaker 1>people think that when they hear that that if you're

0:25:58.720 --> 0:26:01.440
<v Speaker 1>not recouped, that you didn't make money, know that you

0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:05.760
<v Speaker 1>are like in debt to the label like personal Like no,

0:26:06.280 --> 0:26:09.960
<v Speaker 1>like if the label gives you a million dollars and

0:26:10.080 --> 0:26:13.159
<v Speaker 1>your music only makes one hundred thousand dollars, now you

0:26:13.280 --> 0:26:15.639
<v Speaker 1>might not be recouped through your deal, but it's not

0:26:15.760 --> 0:26:18.440
<v Speaker 1>like you're moving around with a fucking nine hundred thousand

0:26:18.480 --> 0:26:21.840
<v Speaker 1>dollars debt over your head label. Yeah, because that going

0:26:21.920 --> 0:26:23.520
<v Speaker 1>right if they let that, if they let you go,

0:26:23.600 --> 0:26:26.920
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna write you off. Like with Nation tax right off. Yeah,

0:26:26.960 --> 0:26:29.800
<v Speaker 1>with Rocknation, they let me go, and it's like, I

0:26:29.880 --> 0:26:33.480
<v Speaker 1>think I fucking owe them like eight hundred thousand. Did

0:26:33.520 --> 0:26:35.600
<v Speaker 1>you see what the Russell said that like Rocknation offered

0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:38.639
<v Speaker 1>him like a really bad deal. Uh, yeah, y'all saw

0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.600
<v Speaker 1>that interview? Yeah? Was that? How was your deal? I mean,

0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:44.399
<v Speaker 1>that's it. Nah, My situation wasn't nothing like that. But

0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:47.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, at the end of the day, this is business.

0:26:47.520 --> 0:26:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Like in business, people are gonna do and get over

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 1>with what they can, you know what I'm saying, And

0:26:52.440 --> 0:26:54.080
<v Speaker 1>it's up to you to catch up with it. Like

0:26:56.480 --> 0:26:59.840
<v Speaker 1>even with lawyers and shit, like these lawyers are slick

0:26:59.880 --> 0:27:02.120
<v Speaker 1>as a motherfucker, and a lot of times they all

0:27:02.200 --> 0:27:04.760
<v Speaker 1>like like they kind of work together. Yeah, and like

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:07.200
<v Speaker 1>you got to kind of really find your own like

0:27:07.400 --> 0:27:10.440
<v Speaker 1>entertainment lawyer. That's kind of like maybe not living in

0:27:10.680 --> 0:27:14.840
<v Speaker 1>LA for sure, like because or somebody that's fresh out

0:27:14.920 --> 0:27:18.879
<v Speaker 1>of college. That's like somebody with you, right, because they

0:27:19.000 --> 0:27:21.720
<v Speaker 1>will try to they will try to sneak shit in.

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Like I had a situation to where I worked out

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:28.639
<v Speaker 1>a deal and this motherfucker telling me, all right, everything

0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:31.159
<v Speaker 1>is great. I don't like this. I don't like this.

0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell him this, but didn't tell me that

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:38.159
<v Speaker 1>he slipped in. I need five percent out of this

0:27:38.320 --> 0:27:41.520
<v Speaker 1>deal in the contract. You tell me everything else, but

0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:43.760
<v Speaker 1>forget to And a lot of people get fucked like that.

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:47.080
<v Speaker 1>But I'll be on top of everything. So because it's

0:27:47.119 --> 0:27:49.440
<v Speaker 1>not like I could just pay you your hourly fee

0:27:51.119 --> 0:27:55.240
<v Speaker 1>paying a flat, right, but it's like a motherfucker they'll

0:27:55.359 --> 0:27:58.119
<v Speaker 1>court you. Oh it's love, bro, I'm here for you,

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:02.119
<v Speaker 1>woo woo. Let you know everything and then still sneak

0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:04.640
<v Speaker 1>in some shit under your nose, like all this shit

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:06.840
<v Speaker 1>go on, you know what I mean, But you can't

0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 1>get mad at it. It's the games I think that

0:28:08.920 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I see. Well, I noticed that too, with a lot

0:28:10.680 --> 0:28:15.400
<v Speaker 1>of managers on top of it, managers shitty managers will

0:28:15.880 --> 0:28:18.760
<v Speaker 1>they backdo you. They'll force their artists into a shitty

0:28:18.840 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 1>record deal because they don't got to recoup off the advance.

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.520
<v Speaker 1>They get their percentage Scott free, I need to play

0:28:24.600 --> 0:28:27.920
<v Speaker 1>this rent so they're getting their bread. Meanwhile, you're locked

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:30.960
<v Speaker 1>into a shitty deal and you're not gonna recoup. And

0:28:31.080 --> 0:28:33.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like, but the manager got paid, the lawyer got paid,

0:28:33.720 --> 0:28:35.120
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I see that shit happening

0:28:35.240 --> 0:28:37.320
<v Speaker 1>all the time, where like, like some of my homies

0:28:37.320 --> 0:28:40.840
<v Speaker 1>are like their fucking management will like be pushing them

0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:43.440
<v Speaker 1>to sign like shitty deals, and I'm like, bro because

0:28:43.480 --> 0:28:46.480
<v Speaker 1>they when it's a red flag and managers like that.

0:28:46.680 --> 0:28:50.080
<v Speaker 1>That's how a lot of managers think. I'm the coach.

0:28:50.240 --> 0:28:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I outlive the artists. I'm gonna have thirty more of you,

0:28:53.720 --> 0:28:58.200
<v Speaker 1>like motherfuckers. I nenver heard somebody say, I'm not gonna

0:28:58.200 --> 0:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>say who, but close to shit, an average artist lifestyle

0:29:03.120 --> 0:29:07.000
<v Speaker 1>lifespan is five years. But that's really not the case

0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:10.160
<v Speaker 1>no more. Because rapping turned into rock and roll right too.

0:29:10.240 --> 0:29:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Short them they're sixty and he's stealed the shit? Is

0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:16.640
<v Speaker 1>he almost sixty? Yes? He like fifty five fifty six,

0:29:16.760 --> 0:29:19.520
<v Speaker 1>hold a sugar free. Sugar Free is around the same

0:29:19.600 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 1>thing fifty three fifty four. But it's like rapping turned

0:29:22.880 --> 0:29:25.400
<v Speaker 1>into rock and roll, so it's no age limit. But

0:29:26.000 --> 0:29:30.360
<v Speaker 1>like people a bad management to tell you shit like that,

0:29:30.600 --> 0:29:34.400
<v Speaker 1>and damn put this idea in your head that you

0:29:34.520 --> 0:29:37.080
<v Speaker 1>got to rush into these fucked up situations because you

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.280
<v Speaker 1>only got a windough, you know what I mean. But

0:29:39.800 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 1>if you're a brand, you're gonna be here forever. Rappers

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:45.160
<v Speaker 1>do got a fucking expiration day, but brands don't. Right.

0:29:45.960 --> 0:29:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Are you pretty much self managed now or do you

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>have management? Yeah? Because I feel like you could kind

0:29:51.040 --> 0:29:53.400
<v Speaker 1>of you. You know, you're one of the few artists

0:29:53.440 --> 0:29:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, probably don't need a manager. You have

0:29:55.480 --> 0:29:57.680
<v Speaker 1>good people around here. You got a great project Yeah yeah, yeah,

0:29:57.720 --> 0:30:00.880
<v Speaker 1>fire like Gentry. Yeah, Gentry my project manager, you know

0:30:00.920 --> 0:30:04.800
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. And he's like, he's definitely one of

0:30:04.880 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 1>the best, like this doing some groundbreaking. I think Gentry

0:30:08.480 --> 0:30:10.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna be one of the people that like change the

0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:13.640
<v Speaker 1>game in the future. But you know, he assists me.

0:30:13.720 --> 0:30:17.800
<v Speaker 1>But as far as management, man, you know I do that.

0:30:17.840 --> 0:30:20.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm a mastermind, like you know, not to too my

0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:24.280
<v Speaker 1>own horn, but like I'm a hustler. So it's like

0:30:24.560 --> 0:30:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I know that the game is like it's really only

0:30:28.800 --> 0:30:32.320
<v Speaker 1>ten percent of the music. It's ninety percent of how

0:30:32.400 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 1>you position yourself, how you set up your brand, and

0:30:35.840 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 1>how you do all this. And I was just telling

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 1>somebody the other day, like, man, I only need to

0:30:41.880 --> 0:30:47.400
<v Speaker 1>do fucking fifteen percent of what a major artist gotta do,

0:30:48.040 --> 0:30:50.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm getting the same money or more, and I

0:30:50.480 --> 0:30:52.720
<v Speaker 1>do what I want, and I feel like I could,

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>like I feel great, you know what I'm saying. I

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:59.720
<v Speaker 1>felt like I honestly felt like like music turned into

0:30:59.800 --> 0:31:02.240
<v Speaker 1>a job when I signed, you know what I mean,

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.600
<v Speaker 1>And it just turned into pressure because the lights in

0:31:05.720 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 1>it and the perception of this shit, oh you were Rocknation,

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:11.480
<v Speaker 1>and just like that shit fucked up a gang of

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 1>relationships with me because motherfuckers is next to me but

0:31:16.000 --> 0:31:18.640
<v Speaker 1>not paying attention to what's really going on, just like

0:31:18.760 --> 0:31:20.680
<v Speaker 1>the look of shit, you know what I'm saying. So

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:24.479
<v Speaker 1>like independent is where it's at. Man, Like people were

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.000
<v Speaker 1>signing for the wrong reasons, like you said, it's the look,

0:31:27.080 --> 0:31:28.640
<v Speaker 1>it's the like now I'm on here, I get to

0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:30.160
<v Speaker 1>go to the brunch or I get you know what.

0:31:30.280 --> 0:31:32.040
<v Speaker 1>It's like that shit is great and like shout out

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:35.160
<v Speaker 1>to that, you know, but like I don't think I

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:39.040
<v Speaker 1>think that you're clicking. Life is way more important than that. Yeah,

0:31:39.240 --> 0:31:43.200
<v Speaker 1>your peace of mind, your freedom, your flexibility, all these things.

0:31:43.360 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 1>That freedom is everything. Because I wanted to quit when

0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I said I was retiring, I really felt like that,

0:31:48.280 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 1>like fuck this, I know I'm a cold motherfucker. I

0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:54.680
<v Speaker 1>could go make millions anywhere, right, a hustler. So it's

0:31:54.800 --> 0:31:57.760
<v Speaker 1>like like music had me jaded for a minute, and

0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:02.440
<v Speaker 1>it like just being independent. I talk man, I said, bro, like, bro,

0:32:02.600 --> 0:32:06.160
<v Speaker 1>you get me freedom. Bro, Like I respect you and

0:32:06.280 --> 0:32:09.240
<v Speaker 1>LOYU for that. You know what I'm saying, So like

0:32:09.760 --> 0:32:13.920
<v Speaker 1>you know you got me. How do you like? What

0:32:14.080 --> 0:32:17.120
<v Speaker 1>are some of the because I feel like the apparel business.

0:32:17.160 --> 0:32:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Obviously you got blue T shirt, but it's it seems

0:32:20.680 --> 0:32:24.840
<v Speaker 1>like a very competitive, hard like thing to pop like

0:32:24.880 --> 0:32:27.200
<v Speaker 1>because there's just so many clothing brands and it's like

0:32:27.920 --> 0:32:30.200
<v Speaker 1>like what is like kind of some of the uphill

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:31.880
<v Speaker 1>battles you have to go through when it comes to

0:32:31.960 --> 0:32:34.760
<v Speaker 1>the clothing business. I mean it's the same thing with music.

0:32:34.920 --> 0:32:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Like right now, my like I wouldn't even say struggle,

0:32:38.600 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 1>but challenge right now is just like getting the whole

0:32:43.080 --> 0:32:47.360
<v Speaker 1>infrastructure everything tight, because like, I got a product that's

0:32:47.400 --> 0:32:50.320
<v Speaker 1>a fucking no brainer. When you walk up with this

0:32:50.440 --> 0:32:54.520
<v Speaker 1>as a blue T shirt and that shit fly, anybody

0:32:54.840 --> 0:32:57.720
<v Speaker 1>in the fucking planet is gonna have something to say

0:32:57.800 --> 0:33:00.120
<v Speaker 1>about that. And I'm saying it's self explained to or

0:33:00.200 --> 0:33:02.720
<v Speaker 1>it's not one of those things where I got some

0:33:03.000 --> 0:33:05.560
<v Speaker 1>letters and I got to explain what each letter mean

0:33:05.640 --> 0:33:08.520
<v Speaker 1>and give you this long, drawing out shit. It's just like,

0:33:08.680 --> 0:33:12.760
<v Speaker 1>oh that's tight. Yeah. The fucking the whole thing behind

0:33:12.880 --> 0:33:19.000
<v Speaker 1>this is perception, and my perception, my specific perception, is

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:23.080
<v Speaker 1>you could make them possible possible. So if I say

0:33:23.120 --> 0:33:25.080
<v Speaker 1>it's this, this is what it is, and this how

0:33:25.080 --> 0:33:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna make it happen, and I feel like a

0:33:26.800 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of people in the world or just just in

0:33:31.280 --> 0:33:35.840
<v Speaker 1>life period business need to understand that. Because if you

0:33:35.960 --> 0:33:38.240
<v Speaker 1>got a dope idea, or if you got something dope

0:33:38.320 --> 0:33:42.960
<v Speaker 1>or something cutting edge, what is like ninety percent a

0:33:43.000 --> 0:33:45.680
<v Speaker 1>monthfucker is gonna tell you that's a bad idea, that's crazy.

0:33:45.720 --> 0:33:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I always do that, always fucking get a job, do this.

0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:52.040
<v Speaker 1>So that's pretty much what blue T Shirt represents, you

0:33:52.080 --> 0:33:54.840
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. But you know, without saying all that,

0:33:55.160 --> 0:33:57.760
<v Speaker 1>just seeing it is fucking dope, you know what I mean.

0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:00.760
<v Speaker 1>I was like, the probably the best thing I created. Bro.

0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say, do you do you feel like

0:34:02.440 --> 0:34:05.560
<v Speaker 1>because you know you'll see guys like burn or YG

0:34:05.840 --> 0:34:08.319
<v Speaker 1>kind of scale the closing lines to a certain level.

0:34:08.360 --> 0:34:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Are you starting to kind of like maybe hit some

0:34:11.160 --> 0:34:13.960
<v Speaker 1>of these trade shows like there's Magic and there's Project

0:34:14.120 --> 0:34:17.200
<v Speaker 1>and what's the other shit that's an agenda? Yeah? You

0:34:17.239 --> 0:34:18.759
<v Speaker 1>know all that kind of shit. Is that something that

0:34:18.800 --> 0:34:21.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna Yeah, so the next run or all that shit,

0:34:21.600 --> 0:34:23.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be there at present, you know what I mean.

0:34:23.600 --> 0:34:27.320

0:38:19.840 --> 0:38:23.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, everything, because when I get involved, I don't

0:38:23.040 --> 0:38:24.440

0:38:31.719 --> 0:38:33.640
<v Speaker 1>to spend rolling around with a dude on the ground,

0:38:34.560 --> 0:38:36.759
<v Speaker 1>right and getting this shit kicked out and getting ring

0:38:36.840 --> 0:38:40.400
<v Speaker 1>warm or like getting a fucking staff infection because the

0:38:40.480 --> 0:38:43.080
<v Speaker 1>fucking mats are dirty. That should be happening staff. I

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:45.400
<v Speaker 1>ain't heard that. When I was in a pen. It

0:38:45.560 --> 0:38:49.120
<v Speaker 1>was like the staff ship was big in the country

0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:51.719
<v Speaker 1>at the time, and motherfuckers was catching that shit. Bro

0:38:51.880 --> 0:38:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I was, man, I was so spooke. How long were

0:38:55.080 --> 0:38:58.520
<v Speaker 1>you locked up in total? I did about six years.

0:38:58.680 --> 0:39:00.960
<v Speaker 1>What was your longest like sing like it total of

0:39:01.080 --> 0:39:03.239
<v Speaker 1>my life? I did about six years, a little over

0:39:03.360 --> 0:39:08.400
<v Speaker 1>six years. What was the longest single bid? Three years

0:39:08.560 --> 0:39:12.799
<v Speaker 1>and like six months? Geez yeah, or four month three

0:39:12.880 --> 0:39:17.240
<v Speaker 1>and four something like that. Yeah. For you, like, who's

0:39:17.239 --> 0:39:19.080
<v Speaker 1>playing you in the movie? Man? You were in prison,

0:39:19.239 --> 0:39:21.200
<v Speaker 1>you got so much crazy shit that's happened in your life.

0:39:21.200 --> 0:39:22.920
<v Speaker 1>If you had to pick somebody to play you in

0:39:22.960 --> 0:39:27.600
<v Speaker 1>the movie, whould be Man, he probably ain't even hit

0:39:27.719 --> 0:39:30.960
<v Speaker 1>the scene yet. It's yourself. Yeah, you just play yourself.

0:39:31.000 --> 0:39:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like i'd be maybe at certain parts, but

0:39:35.280 --> 0:39:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I ain't really thought about it. But I think, like

0:39:37.600 --> 0:39:39.840
<v Speaker 1>with the movie shit, my goal with that too is

0:39:40.000 --> 0:39:43.919
<v Speaker 1>like I'll be studying motherfuckers like John Singleton and US

0:39:44.000 --> 0:39:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Brothers where they was taking these super talented unknowns. Yeah,

0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:51.799
<v Speaker 1>so that's that's like my goal and the ship. I'm

0:39:51.840 --> 0:39:54.880
<v Speaker 1>not looking for the big name like I know, so

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I've been trying to get in it, so I don't

0:39:56.560 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 1>set with a lot of different producers and a lot

0:39:58.640 --> 0:40:01.839
<v Speaker 1>of different writers, and a lot of these dudes think

0:40:01.920 --> 0:40:04.640
<v Speaker 1>the same way. Some of these rappers think having a

0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:07.239
<v Speaker 1>gang of names tied to some ship is gonna make

0:40:07.280 --> 0:40:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it dope, Like it's gonna get you some eyeballs, but

0:40:09.640 --> 0:40:14.400
<v Speaker 1>is it gonna make great product? Well, think about who

0:40:14.520 --> 0:40:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Uncle Jerome the actor was or who Franklin Saint the

0:40:17.000 --> 0:40:19.080
<v Speaker 1>actor was before that show, and now they the ship.

0:40:19.320 --> 0:40:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Now they're lit, right, So that's my goal with that

0:40:21.960 --> 0:40:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Franklin Saints banging Lori Harvey right now, God bless them.

0:40:27.760 --> 0:40:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying, Okay, so how many more projects are

0:40:32.040 --> 0:40:33.839
<v Speaker 1>you dropping this year? The big album's coming for sure

0:40:33.840 --> 0:40:36.239
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the year. Yeah, big album, fourth quarter,

0:40:36.400 --> 0:40:39.239
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna do the probably just and it with a

0:40:39.800 --> 0:40:42.160
<v Speaker 1>like Nova show or if I could do something bigger

0:40:42.239 --> 0:40:45.120
<v Speaker 1>than that, that'd be awesome. I mean, it's about time

0:40:45.200 --> 0:40:47.200
<v Speaker 1>to do the Novo or do Palladium. Yeah yeah, yeah,

0:40:47.239 --> 0:40:49.520
<v Speaker 1>yeah I didn't. I mean having offers to do them.

0:40:49.719 --> 0:40:52.520
<v Speaker 1>What rocks? The Roxy show is special. Yeah, and like

0:40:52.640 --> 0:40:54.840
<v Speaker 1>the Roxy, like I could have did the Nova, you

0:40:54.880 --> 0:40:57.080
<v Speaker 1>could have been so gotta do the Roxy first. But

0:40:57.200 --> 0:40:59.319
<v Speaker 1>it's like for like tradition's sake, I feel like it's

0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:01.840
<v Speaker 1>like I love the Roxy and I wanted to just

0:41:01.960 --> 0:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>do like my one last show, the Rock, you know,

0:41:05.000 --> 0:41:07.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, so that could go down, But yeah, I

0:41:07.800 --> 0:41:10.840
<v Speaker 1>think I'm pretty I got the Fonda coming up, you

0:41:10.880 --> 0:41:13.600
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. That's big. Yeah. So how many

0:41:13.680 --> 0:41:17.279
<v Speaker 1>days are you and Richie doing? Twenty five? That's a lot, man.

0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:20.000
<v Speaker 1>How far east are you guys going? We're going all

0:41:20.040 --> 0:41:23.839
<v Speaker 1>the way the Massachusetts Cambridge, Massachusetts, I think that's far

0:41:23.960 --> 0:41:28.200
<v Speaker 1>and then Orlando, Florida, so northeast and southeast that's lit. Yeah.

0:41:28.440 --> 0:41:31.840
<v Speaker 1>You think you like like I do, think like, you know,

0:41:31.920 --> 0:41:36.640
<v Speaker 1>having fans because I remember living in Tampa and at

0:41:36.680 --> 0:41:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the height of my crazy life, Ygi came and I

0:41:40.760 --> 0:41:42.960
<v Speaker 1>was because you know, I'm a West Coast guy from Phoenix.

0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:47.040
<v Speaker 1>So when Ygi came to Tampa, this is like twenty fourteen,

0:41:48.040 --> 0:41:51.080
<v Speaker 1>when he was on fire fire, and I no one

0:41:51.239 --> 0:41:53.720
<v Speaker 1>cared because it was Florida, so it was like different

0:41:54.200 --> 0:41:56.239
<v Speaker 1>like people were they loved like riche On m Kwan

0:41:56.320 --> 0:41:58.839
<v Speaker 1>and Boozy like people who wouldn't have necessarily people would

0:41:58.840 --> 0:42:01.200
<v Speaker 1>have cared about like that out here. But I do

0:42:01.360 --> 0:42:03.840
<v Speaker 1>think it's like important, like like you said, like you

0:42:03.960 --> 0:42:06.239
<v Speaker 1>got to go and build those markets up fan by

0:42:06.360 --> 0:42:08.880
<v Speaker 1>fans exactly. So I know a lot of these dates,

0:42:10.840 --> 0:42:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting myself up to the challenge in building majority

0:42:14.920 --> 0:42:17.920
<v Speaker 1>of the dates, over half of the dates is no burners.

0:42:17.960 --> 0:42:21.279
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna be sold out, right, But my goal is

0:42:21.400 --> 0:42:24.400
<v Speaker 1>to build the torn So you know, I'm curious to

0:42:24.440 --> 0:42:26.839
<v Speaker 1>see how Orlando, Florida go, you know what I mean,

0:42:28.680 --> 0:42:30.800
<v Speaker 1>And however it go, I'm gonna just keep hitting the

0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:33.120
<v Speaker 1>nail on the head until I build that market out

0:42:33.200 --> 0:42:37.399
<v Speaker 1>because once it's built, then you know, that's that's that's

0:42:37.560 --> 0:42:39.880
<v Speaker 1>extra dot to the net at the or the gross

0:42:40.280 --> 0:42:42.200
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the year. So you know, that's

0:42:42.239 --> 0:42:45.480
<v Speaker 1>my goal. What has been the most random like place

0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:49.240
<v Speaker 1>you've seen, like fans just really fucking with you outside

0:42:49.280 --> 0:42:56.279

<v Speaker 1>they had a shitload of content. So you know, when

0:45:26.880 --> 0:45:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I discovered them, like, it's a lot of shit for

0:45:30.000 --> 0:45:32.120
<v Speaker 1>me to fall in love with them. And then like

0:45:32.280 --> 0:45:35.680
<v Speaker 1>around the time when I discovered Wiz and was like, damn,

0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:38.600
<v Speaker 1>this nigga is crazy. Then Black and Yellow hit and

0:45:38.680 --> 0:45:41.279
<v Speaker 1>then all the other shit go up. So you know,

0:45:41.440 --> 0:45:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to try and get mirror out of my

0:45:43.520 --> 0:45:45.960
<v Speaker 1>own way everything else comes up. Yeah, I'm trying to

0:45:46.000 --> 0:45:48.800
<v Speaker 1>mirror that in my own way. It's like, okay, with

0:45:49.000 --> 0:45:51.680
<v Speaker 1>all the catalog that I get, let's say a song hit.

0:45:51.840 --> 0:45:55.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm not doing my career based on a hit song

0:45:55.360 --> 0:45:57.640
<v Speaker 1>because I know I can make ms without a hit song.

0:45:57.840 --> 0:46:00.960
<v Speaker 1>So but if it hits song do hit? Then guess

0:46:01.040 --> 0:46:03.719
<v Speaker 1>what my catalog go from whatever a month to a

0:46:03.840 --> 0:46:06.120
<v Speaker 1>million a month? You know what I mean? Yeah, and

0:46:06.200 --> 0:46:09.360
<v Speaker 1>then when they talking about selling catalog, shit, give me

0:46:09.480 --> 0:46:13.000
<v Speaker 1>eighty million dollars, right, You do you feel like because

0:46:13.120 --> 0:46:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I do feel like. I saw Russ recently comment on this,

0:46:16.000 --> 0:46:17.560
<v Speaker 1>and Rust is somebody who kind of blew up through

0:46:17.560 --> 0:46:19.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of music videos, but he just said recently

0:46:19.480 --> 0:46:23.400
<v Speaker 1>that music videos aren't as important as they used to

0:46:23.520 --> 0:46:26.440
<v Speaker 1>be in terms of like the effect of I guess

0:46:26.520 --> 0:46:29.360
<v Speaker 1>the ROI you would get. Definitely, do you feel like

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:31.720
<v Speaker 1>that's the case because I know you still shoot videos?

0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.520
<v Speaker 1>A fact, Yeah, that's a fact because like let's say,

0:46:34.960 --> 0:46:38.400
<v Speaker 1>like my record keep Killing, for example, keep Killing. If

0:46:38.440 --> 0:46:40.800
<v Speaker 1>you look on YouTube, it's gonna look like the record is.

0:46:42.200 --> 0:46:45.680
<v Speaker 1>But that shit got like fucking thirty forty million streams total,

0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:47.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. And it's not even close

0:46:47.840 --> 0:46:49.960
<v Speaker 1>to a million on YouTube, you know what I'm saying.

0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:53.120
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I feel what he's saying. I think in

0:46:53.200 --> 0:46:58.200
<v Speaker 1>this era, like YouTube and like this the information era, right,

0:46:58.520 --> 0:47:00.919
<v Speaker 1>so these podcasts and all this ship is the ship,

0:47:01.719 --> 0:47:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and like I think YouTube is designed more for motherfuckers

0:47:07.040 --> 0:47:09.680
<v Speaker 1>to get acquainted with your brand at this point and

0:47:09.800 --> 0:47:11.640
<v Speaker 1>how you think and where you're almost is like a

0:47:11.719 --> 0:47:15.400
<v Speaker 1>little extra, like you know, it's it's if you're an

0:47:15.400 --> 0:47:17.759
<v Speaker 1>independent artist, like you're probably not going to spend the

0:47:17.760 --> 0:47:19.520
<v Speaker 1>amount of money on music videos that you might have

0:47:20.120 --> 0:47:22.120
<v Speaker 1>three or four years ago. Yeah, for sure, but it's

0:47:22.200 --> 0:47:24.439
<v Speaker 1>something that kind of just helps with the brand. Yeah,

0:47:24.520 --> 0:47:26.600
<v Speaker 1>it definitely helped. It's a commercial you know what I mean,

0:47:26.760 --> 0:47:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I think a song is a commercial for the brand,

0:47:29.480 --> 0:47:34.360
<v Speaker 1>but uh yeah, it's like it's the information error. And

0:47:34.440 --> 0:47:38.600
<v Speaker 1>that's like even with with PRESS, right because I had

0:47:38.640 --> 0:47:41.080
<v Speaker 1>a PR since the jump and that that's what uh,

0:47:41.920 --> 0:47:44.840
<v Speaker 1>that's what helped me get known before my music, Like

0:47:44.920 --> 0:47:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I was more known than my music, you know what

0:47:47.360 --> 0:47:50.959
<v Speaker 1>I mean. And like with the way that the game

0:47:51.080 --> 0:47:55.680
<v Speaker 1>is going, like the PR run is not really it's

0:47:55.800 --> 0:47:59.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of becoming like dinosaur type shit, like going to

0:47:59.719 --> 0:48:02.520
<v Speaker 1>blow and going to this different shake. I feel like

0:48:02.640 --> 0:48:05.080
<v Speaker 1>paying a PR person if you have like decent relationships

0:48:05.120 --> 0:48:07.600
<v Speaker 1>to waste the money now, Yeah, it's like if someone

0:48:07.680 --> 0:48:10.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to sell you on blog placements, that's a fucking

0:48:10.239 --> 0:48:13.120
<v Speaker 1>red flag. Yeah that's that's dinosaur shit. And it's like

0:48:14.160 --> 0:48:18.800
<v Speaker 1>like it's the fucking podcasts are way more you know,

0:48:19.120 --> 0:48:24.919
<v Speaker 1>important and valuable. So yeah, bro, like PR, I think

0:48:25.120 --> 0:48:28.000
<v Speaker 1>fucking podcasts and all this different shit is way more

0:48:28.080 --> 0:48:30.319
<v Speaker 1>important than a PR run at this for sure? Would

0:48:30.320 --> 0:48:36.400
<v Speaker 1>you would you ever do your own podcast? Nah? Not

0:48:36.680 --> 0:48:39.200
<v Speaker 1>at this point. Maybe when I slow down with music

0:48:39.760 --> 0:48:43.399
<v Speaker 1>because with a podcast, bro, like you got to offer

0:48:43.560 --> 0:48:46.480
<v Speaker 1>too many different things of yourself unless you keep it,

0:48:47.000 --> 0:48:50.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, on one specific thing, and it's like it

0:48:50.840 --> 0:48:54.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of steal from the mystique of the music, right

0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:57.279
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean? It's good money though, it's

0:48:57.440 --> 0:49:00.239
<v Speaker 1>great money. Like if you I would definitely reckon man,

0:49:00.320 --> 0:49:02.440
<v Speaker 1>if you're an artist and you can't figure out how

0:49:02.520 --> 0:49:04.880
<v Speaker 1>to stream or how to get people on your shit,

0:49:05.040 --> 0:49:09.480
<v Speaker 1>like do a fucking podcast, bro, Like that shit is

0:49:09.640 --> 0:49:11.319
<v Speaker 1>that shit? I know a lot of people that make

0:49:12.080 --> 0:49:15.160
<v Speaker 1>like a lot of artists that got podcast now and

0:49:15.280 --> 0:49:17.640
<v Speaker 1>made more than they ever made. They got an AD

0:49:17.920 --> 0:49:21.839
<v Speaker 1>all projects running it up exactly, so AD like ad

0:49:22.080 --> 0:49:24.839
<v Speaker 1>killing it. I'm like super proud of a d right now.

0:49:25.080 --> 0:49:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Like that's like, that's dope because he a good dude.

0:49:27.560 --> 0:49:30.319
<v Speaker 1>So you know, he found his way so sold out

0:49:30.440 --> 0:49:35.480
<v Speaker 1>LRA with the podcast big deal exactly, big your era.

0:49:35.680 --> 0:49:38.240

<v Speaker 1>and because I don't do a lot of features. I mean,

0:50:36.280 --> 0:50:45.239
<v Speaker 1>this is a fucking damn I lost my trend. You're

<v Speaker 1>my shit's so specific to the lifestyle and what I do,

0:51:27.600 --> 0:51:30.319
<v Speaker 1>like I don't sometimes I just feel like people can't

0:51:30.360 --> 0:51:32.160
<v Speaker 1>add value to that, even if they give me a

0:51:32.200 --> 0:51:34.560
<v Speaker 1>hard ass verse, even if they're like super like if

0:51:34.600 --> 0:51:36.759
