206
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 6: were still right because they were still rappers and we

207
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,760

208
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 6: like we would we were We would rehearse, rehearse, rehearse,

209
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,080

259
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,600

263
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 3: I'm liking the groundwork right, because that's the other part

264
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 3: that is I think missing from from the new artist's

265
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 3: standpoint is getting in the trenches and getting in the

266
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 3: streets and really going to be seen and to be

267
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 3: heard like that. Proving ground just builds a different type

268
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 3: of artists. It creates a different type of longevity. You

269
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 3: understand what I'm saying. It just it just builds something

270
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 3: different that I think is needed for our Like, Like,

271
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,280

Speaker 4: Julie Greenwall, which was a bad move on his part.

736
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 6: What he yeah, exactly after they gave him all that money,

Speaker 4: if they're gonna be atlant it gonna pick me up or not.

741
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: But you know, it's like, oh, you don't have no

742
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: deal as a solo artist at this point, I don't know.

743
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 1: This is your mixtape? Did you wrong? It's on your mixtape?

744
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is this is this is me? That's my

745
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 4: word shit.

746
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 6: Okay, all right, so then it's top twenty. Then Craig

747
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 6: them finally says, okay, we're in. We're in the pleasure

748
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 6: be business. And then you know they took that to

749
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 6: like number two, and I signed that contract for that

750
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 6: and my solo shit and basically.

751
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 4: I'll never forget it. Baby.

752
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 6: Blueting was going around saying, oh, well he's still signing

753
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 6: to us, so you know the same shit easy he

754
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 6: was doing the Ice QB. And for me, my ego

755
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 6: is intact like nah, nigga, I wrote this record the

756
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 6: top twenty. You know, y'all niggas had nothing to do

757
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 6: with that. So you know, it was a thing to

758
00:36:55,120 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 6: where his imprint would be on my album. If you

759
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, why is this imprint on the

760
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 6: on the charts? I ain't signing him, you know whatever?

761
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,439
Speaker 1: Whatever, Because Atlantic ultimately had to do a deal where

762
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: he had probably had an override on your new project

763
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: and so that he would allow them to do your

764
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: solo album. So that's how you in a sense ended

765
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: up at Atlantic still.

766
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 6: Right, So I said, you know what, man that you know,

767
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 6: I'm thankful for everything he did for me. If it

768
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,800
Speaker 6: wasn't for him, I wouldn't be where I'm at right now.

769
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 6: So I gave him five hundred thousand dollars. Go your way,

770
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 6: I go my way.

771
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 4: And that was it, bro, you know what I'm saying.

772
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 4: That was it. Yeah. I never had to go to

773
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 4: court after that.

774
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 6: We never we never had to go to court. But

775
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 6: I could have. You know, I had the money, you

776
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 6: know I'm saying I have. I had the money to

777
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 6: bury this guy.

778
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:47,800
Speaker 4: But I just forget.

779
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 6: You know, I'm unforgiving, bro, I'm a forgiving person, you

780
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So I just kind of looked

781
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 6: at the futures like, you know what, I'm doing this

782
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 6: and doing that.

783

Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, And you know, I just

1172
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,680

Speaker 6: know that everybody can you know, the way that we

1174
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,680

1175
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 6: that's just how I seen it. I seen it as

1176
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 6: it wasn't. It wasn't one hundred percent fair, But you

00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 4: And then and then.

1210
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 6: They like skipped the skipped the song or turn or

1211
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,080
Speaker 6: something like that, trying to play. I was like, y'all

1212
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 6: ain't gonna sit up here and play, you know what

1213
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 6: I'm saying, Like, no, bro, And that's just how I

1214
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 6: felt about it, and then formed the group. Yeah, we're friends,

1215
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 6: we're friends, but it's it's competitive right now. It's like

1216
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 6: we're playing basketball. We shipped talking basketball, we ship talking football.

1217
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 6: We shipp talking R and B too.

1218
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 5: Like I was like, somebody's gonna fight.

1219
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 4: And we got the most views too.

1220
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:59,880
Speaker 3: Though, people asking me, and I was like this, listen,

1221
00:58:59,920 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 3: you can look at it one of two ways, right.

1222
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 3: You can look at it as you know, the aggressive

1223
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 3: side of it and the competitive side of it kind

1224
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:12,960
Speaker 3: of overshadowed you know what these guys are capable of musically,

1225
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 3: I said, Or you can look at it as like

1226
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 3: that many people tuned in, that many people are now

1227
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Speaker 3: streaming their songs, that many people are now going to

1228
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 3: pull up to their shows. And I said, that's the win,

1229
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 3: because when you go into a versus space like the

1230
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,600
Speaker 3: verses was more so kind of created in rap format.

1231
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 3: Sure wasn't totally designed for R and B guys, So

1232
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 3: R and B almost had to figure out a way

1233
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 3: to be seen, you know what I'm saying, to to

1234
00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:44,640
Speaker 3: have interaction in that space, and you guys organically did it.

1235
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:44,919
Speaker 5: Y'all.

1236
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 3: Wasn't trying to be anything. Y'all was just really then

1237
00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:51,760
Speaker 3: people didn't know that. People didn't know that no niggas is.

1238
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: I think that's that's the confusing part for most of

1239
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:01,760
Speaker 1: the public, is not realizing that the artists that you see,

1240
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: no matter what genre of music they're doing, we actually

1241
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:07,840
Speaker 1: all come from the same place. We come from the

1242
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 1: same neighborhood. One just chose to rap about it and

1243
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 1: the other chose to sing about it our hoop or whatever.

01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 3: But you've been able to build an audience like you've

1304
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 3: been able to build, you know, a venue full of

1341
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:54,280
Speaker 1: Because most of the artists in this space now too,

1342
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,800
Speaker 1: they they don't want to meet the people for some

1343
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,760
Speaker 1: odd reason. I don't know what that's about. Like, how

1344
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,520
Speaker 1: could you not want to meet your fans? How could

1345
01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 1: you not want to embrace and have conversations with your fans?

1346
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,920
Speaker 1: And you know what I mean, Like that's always been

1347
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 1: a part of you know how this thing goes for

1348
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:15,480
Speaker 1: somebody to tell you, oh the experience they have from

1349
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:18,400
Speaker 1: your record or oh when you wrote that one song

1350
01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 1: and all that like that that how could you not

1351
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 1: want that? How could you not want that real interaction

1352
01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 1: with the people who have given you.

1353
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:27,040
Speaker 4: This life everything?

1354
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 5: And you do that.

1355
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:30,360
Speaker 4: I do that, you know what I mean?

1356
01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:35,680
Speaker 1: That's how you So now it's just about servicing your artists,

1357
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 1: your audience, and that part is don't hold on to

1358
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,720
Speaker 1: the music. And I'm speaking from my own experience now

1359
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:45,439
Speaker 1: moving back into the artist space and me and Tank

1360
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 1: having those conversations where you're like, bro, like, let the

1361
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 1: people have the music, let the people hear the music.

1362
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:54,360
Speaker 1: Like it will never be what it was. The music

1363
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 1: business has changed absolutely, But what it does is it

1364
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 1: keeps you current, It keeps you fresh into space because

01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:14,400
Speaker 1: They love what you've done absolutely, but they supporting that

1369
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:16,919
Speaker 1: and they you know what I mean, And they gonna

1370
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 1: tell a friend in this. But if you stay consistent

1371
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: at it, because that is the one thing that the

1372
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: music business has changed in When Lil Wayne and Chris

1373

1378
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:58,560
