We're 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.480 just trying to like literally innovate and like create like 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:10.760 a new sound, like a new wave. Like even like 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:13.520 pairing this producer with this new artist like man, man 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:15.840 you tough and youtuugh Man, I want to see y'all 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:18.399 go crazy, like because I feel like that's important. Like 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.000 even when when Rocco had linked me in future like that. 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:22.679 You know what I'm saying. It was like we created 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:24.760 a whole wave and you know what I'm saying, it's 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:28.320 like me, you know what I'm saying, Lincoln, countless people 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:31.520 with countless people and seeing what kind of wave that created. 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:33.480 You know what I'm saying, It's like that, that's what 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:36.199 That's what the centralized hub is. But like see it, 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.240 it's like one of the persons, one of the people 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.320 that I was walking in last year, and it's like 0:17:41.000 --> 0:17:43.280 man his pen and so he was raised he was 0:17:43.320 --> 0:17:45.560 born in India, but raising the bay, you know what 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:50.720 I'm saying. His voice is like amazing. And then we 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.600 ended up finding like that that that pocket where it's 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.840 like any beat out come on, any beat that comes on, 0:17:57.200 --> 0:18:00.440 it's like he's attacking it. So it's like the beat 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:03.600 that I'm thinking, like Yo, this is a difficult beat, 0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:06.160 but it's like man, hole get on this, or like, man, 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:08.280 this is a hard beat for like twenty one Savage 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:10.880 on somebody vibe out shit, or like this a hard 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.520 beat for you know what I'm saying, Kanye or Da 0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:15.119 Da da Like you know what I'm saying. But I 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.760 might just not have got that got those beats to 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:20.600 like these artists, you know what I'm saying, but they're 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:23.840 like challenging, so it's like only specific artists are gonna 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.440 hear the understand it. And it's like, man, any beat 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.560 I turned on, it's like, man, this dude knows how 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:31.640 to take it, Like, you know what I'm saying, just 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:33.679 take it there, and his voice just takes it to 0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.320 it just matches the energy of the beat. Like it's 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:38.399 very seldom that, you know what I'm saying, when you 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:40.200 when you got like a beat that you feel like 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:43.200 there's a no brainer just even by itself. It's very 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:46.480 seldom that an artist like matches that matches that energy. 0:18:46.480 --> 0:18:48.240 But when they do, like that's the magic, you know 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:51.320 what I'm saying. And it's like all the songs that 0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:53.240 we did, it was like it was like that. It 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:55.800 was like he was like expanding the beat. It was 0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.240 like he was like he was making real songs on 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:00.280 that shit though, you know what I'm saying, And it's 0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:02.720 like and it's real heartfelt in his real life, and 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.840 I feel like, you know what I'm saying, Like, I'm like, man, bro, 0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:07.959 if I could get away with singing that good, bro, 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.680 you can sing you could just sing that. Somebody ask 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:15.280 him anything. Man, he's singing, he's singing. Is that the 0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:18.520 language he's singing? He's singing his language. But this project 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:21.680 right here is like majority English.

We're just on it every 1:29:49.400 --> 1:29:55.120 single day.

You know what I'm saying, He like, damn, 1:48:01.840 --> 1:48:04.800 but he just made this right now, I'm like, man, hey, yeah, bro, 1:48:04.880 --> 1:48:06.760 this shit going crazy, like you know what I'm saying. 1:48:07.120 --> 1:48:09.040 And I knew like Gucci was on his way home, 1:48:09.439 --> 1:48:11.280 so I was trying to make something like I was 1:48:11.360 --> 1:48:12.920 just trying to get a whole pack that was just 1:48:13.120 --> 1:48:14.720 urgent for Gucci, Like you know what I'm saying, Like 1:48:15.200 --> 1:48:16.880 because he was his he was on his way home, 1:48:17.000 --> 1:48:19.360 so like to me, that beat was just urgent. So 1:48:20.479 --> 1:48:22.240 Plus came in there here like, man, it's hard, I'm 1:48:22.240 --> 1:48:24.280 about to bounce this. I'm like, hell, no, bro, you go, 1:48:24.720 --> 1:48:26.920 you gotta ask someone there. So he put the final 1:48:27.000 --> 1:48:29.120 touches on that joint. And this is my brother from 1:48:29.120 --> 1:48:30.600 eleventh grade. You know what I'm saying. This is what 1:48:30.680 --> 1:48:33.080 I did. This is what I did formation with this? 1:48:33.200 --> 1:48:35.960 What did love me with this? What I did like 1:48:36.000 --> 1:48:38.240 a lot of classics with like he's an animal man, 1:48:38.280 --> 1:48:41.160 shout out to Plus. You know what I'm saying. But yeah, 1:48:41.200 --> 1:48:43.519 he had he added the final touches on that joint. 1:48:43.880 --> 1:48:48.559 And then I remember like me and Gucci ended up 1:48:48.600 --> 1:48:50.599 doing first day out of fat and then after first 1:48:50.680 --> 1:48:53.240 day out of the fast, like Gucci just wanted straight, 1:48:53.600 --> 1:48:55.720 straight like dark beats. He didn't want nothing else that 1:48:55.880 --> 1:48:59.200 sounded like urgent on the radio, So he like he 1:48:59.320 --> 1:49:02.320 might have heard a beat for Humble like once or twice, 1:49:02.360 --> 1:49:05.760 but joint, it could have it could have been you 1:49:05.800 --> 1:49:08.360 know what I'm saying. But you know, like producers, we 1:49:08.479 --> 1:49:11.519 always got like a vision on who we want to 1:49:11.560 --> 1:49:13.280 make the beat for. Like when I made easter Land 1:49:13.280 --> 1:49:15.200 and six for Gucci back in the day, I was thinking, like, 1:49:15.280 --> 1:49:17.080 I'm making a beat for dip set, you know what 1:49:17.080 --> 1:49:19.000 I'm saying, And it's like, you know what I'm saying. 1:49:19.040 --> 1:49:21.200 But then when Gucci was doing like in freestyle tapes, 1:49:21.200 --> 1:49:24.000 it's like I played that beat and then he just 1:49:24.080 --> 1:49:26.439 went in and snapped on that motherfucker and it's like, man, 1:49:26.520 --> 1:49:28.200 this was this was like a hook. This is my 1:49:28.360 --> 1:49:30.960 first joint. That's how I jumped off the porch and 1:49:31.080 --> 1:49:33.200 this is a hood classic still to this day. You 1:49:33.240 --> 1:49:36.600 know what I'm saying. Nineteen years later, you feel me up, 1:49:38.240 --> 1:49:41.360 I got a producer. You might have a vision. But 1:49:41.840 --> 1:49:43.320 I say all that to say, you might have a 1:49:43.439 --> 1:49:45.360 vision as a producer, like I'm making a beat for 1:49:45.479 --> 1:49:47.679 this person, but it might not be for that person, 1:49:48.040 --> 1:49:50.120 Like you know what I'm saying, And sometimes it is 1:49:50.200 --> 1:49:54.040 for that person. But but like that right there, Gucci 1:49:54.080 --> 1:49:55.680 already knew like, man, I got first day out of 1:49:55.680 --> 1:49:58.519 the fast all right, boom, I want to I want 1:49:58.560 --> 1:50:00.280 to do all different beats like this and me and 1:50:00.400 --> 1:50:03.160 they token started collabing and then we did everybody looking 1:50:03.200 --> 1:50:06.680 in at that project came out dope and then Dog 1:50:06.800 --> 1:50:08.519 was asking me for beats and I just felt like 1:50:08.560 --> 1:50:10.679 that beat was always urgent, you know what I'm saying. 1:50:10.960 --> 1:50:14.479 But to me also, I felt like that beat was like, damn, 1:50:14.600 --> 1:50:17.120 this is like this guy like some West Coast vibe 1:50:17.160 --> 1:50:20.880 to it. It sounded like some West Coast like you 1:50:20.920 --> 1:50:22.880 know what I'm saying, d boys ship, But you know 1:50:22.920 --> 1:50:24.760 what I'm saying, But it got like the trap vibe 1:50:24.800 --> 1:50:27.280 to it perfect. I'm like, man, Kendrick are going crazy 1:50:27.320 --> 1:50:30.040 on this ship and he got the vision fit perfectly. 1:50:30.560 --> 1:50:32.960 Went dumb. You know what I'm saying, shout out the humble. 1:50:35.000 --> 1:50:37.400 I should want that, I should want to post him. 1:50:38.320 --> 1:50:41.920 And you said that you a school boy, surprised connected 1:50:41.960 --> 1:50:43.759 you with Kendrick? Right, how did y'all you and school 1:50:43.760 --> 1:50:45.080 with Q connect? Originally? 1:50:45.840 --> 1:50:47.639 Originally that was through Brock. 1:50:47.560 --> 1:50:49.040 And it seems like it's early TD. 1:50:49.400 --> 1:50:52.040 Yeah, that was through Brock and Matt. You know what 1:50:52.040 --> 1:50:55.479 I'm saying. They shot they connected me with Q and 1:50:56.439 --> 1:50:59.719 and Dave three, and I was just sitting like brocking 1:50:59.760 --> 1:51:03.880 Matt like a bunch of beats. And then my hating 1:51:03.960 --> 1:51:06.000 joint ended up being one of the joints of school 1:51:06.000 --> 1:51:08.400 Boy QT Pit and then they send it back and 1:51:08.439 --> 1:51:11.920 I'm like, man, this dude hard as a motherfucker. Project 1:51:12.040 --> 1:51:13.840 ended up dropping, And at that time, me and Q 1:51:14.040 --> 1:51:16.120 used to just stay chopping it up. N whenever he 1:51:16.200 --> 1:51:18.000 came to Atlanta, Like you know what I'm saying with 1:51:18.120 --> 1:51:20.800 Lincoln go to some of the shows and different shit 1:51:20.920 --> 1:51:23.760 like that, and we just kept a lot there like that, 1:51:23.960 --> 1:51:27.360 like TD, that's family. And it's crazy before I even 1:51:27.439 --> 1:51:31.920 came around, Like I think like DJ had something to 1:51:32.000 --> 1:51:37.439 do with helping, Like no, no, DJ, Yeah, my manager DJ, 1:51:37.920 --> 1:51:40.640 he had something to do with like like even with 1:51:40.800 --> 1:51:42.519 TD coming in, like you know what I'm saying with 1:51:42.600 --> 1:51:45.679 in the scope, So it's like this was always family. 1:51:45.720 --> 1:51:48.400 It was always like one degree separation with Damn. They're 1:51:48.400 --> 1:51:50.760 always working at the same studios and all that shit. 1:51:50.840 --> 1:51:55.040 But like I'm happy, I'm happy, humble with landed, where 1:51:55.200 --> 1:51:57.439 landed I'm happy.

That was an accident and 1:57:44.600 --> 1:57:47.680 we ended up I ended up clicking that joint in there. 1:57:48.080 --> 1:57:50.040 Is sampling your go to first thing? 1:57:50.360 --> 1:57:53.440 Or is it like I'm with I'm with whatever, man, 1:57:53.520 --> 1:57:55.480 not really, you know what I'm saying, But I'm with 1:57:55.640 --> 1:57:57.960 whatever I say. I say drums are my first thing, 1:57:58.440 --> 1:58:00.520 but I just like making something different, So rock a 1:58:00.560 --> 1:58:02.680 fucking sample up or if there's some shit I never 1:58:02.760 --> 1:58:06.320 heard before or some shit that's inspiring, you could do it. Yeah, 1:58:06.440 --> 1:58:08.240 like that shit is fun, Like you know what I'm saying, 1:58:08.320 --> 1:58:10.640 Definitely depending on who I'm in the studio with. You 1:58:10.680 --> 1:58:14.120 know what I'm saying with the squad, Like everybody think 1:58:14.160 --> 1:58:16.120 it's different. So it's just like, man, we're just trying 1:58:16.160 --> 1:58:19.520 to make something sound as different and out of box 1:58:19.720 --> 1:58:21.080 and unique as possible. 1:58:21.160 --> 1:58:24.320 So, however, like you use any tool in the toolbox. 1:58:24.040 --> 1:58:26.440 Exactly, for sure, I want to learn how to use AI. 1:58:27.640 --> 1:58:31.160 Oh so, how what's your take on Tim and what 1:58:31.320 --> 1:58:32.480 he's trying. 1:58:32.280 --> 1:58:33.640 To do with AI? What's Tim doing? 1:58:34.440 --> 1:58:38.000 Uh? Basically, isn't he got AI artists? Right? That's what 1:58:38.080 --> 1:58:39.680 he's trying to do. And he got backlash for it. 1:58:40.000 --> 1:58:43.840 I believe, what is it? Right? 1:58:43.960 --> 1:58:45.080 But it's an ar artist. 1:58:45.160 --> 1:58:48.920 And then and basically his whole thing was that, And 1:58:49.000 --> 1:58:51.120 I don't you know, I'm not quoting him forbade him, 1:58:51.120 --> 1:58:53.919 but he was just basically saying, look, I got ideas 1:58:54.040 --> 1:58:57.120 that maybe artists I work with don't have the same ideas, 1:58:57.120 --> 1:58:58.960 and I want to be able to put these ideas 1:58:59.000 --> 1:59:02.160 out and so aireartists, well, you know, allow him to 1:59:02.200 --> 1:59:02.840 do these things. 1:59:03.200 --> 1:59:06.640 Yeah, to me, I look at I look at I 1:59:06.720 --> 1:59:09.840 don't have nothing against like AI at all. Like I 1:59:09.920 --> 1:59:12.560 look at AI like a new tool. Like if you're creative, 1:59:12.960 --> 1:59:14.440 you know what I'm saying. It's like a new tool. 1:59:14.560 --> 1:59:17.440 So it's like like I was telling somebody the other 1:59:17.520 --> 1:59:21.680 day that I had just said in this interview that 1:59:21.960 --> 1:59:24.080 I remember I had went to my first hip hop 1:59:24.200 --> 1:59:28.600 concert with Bone Thirst and Harmony and like I was like, yeah, 1:59:28.640 --> 1:59:30.800 I was like six seven years old and my pops 1:59:30.840 --> 1:59:33.280 took me. And then when we left, my pops was like, man, 1:59:33.920 --> 1:59:36.360 you know what, man, music is done. I'm like, man, 1:59:36.400 --> 1:59:38.320 what do you mean? And then he was like he 1:59:38.440 --> 1:59:40.440 was like, man, it was no instruments on the stage 1:59:40.440 --> 1:59:42.600 because he was used to going to like Ohio Players, 1:59:42.800 --> 1:59:44.840 you know what I'm saying, Earth Winning Fire, like all 1:59:44.920 --> 1:59:47.040 those different bands, so he like it was no instruments 1:59:47.120 --> 1:59:48.440 on stage. He was like, it was just a DJ 1:59:48.600 --> 1:59:52.120 out there but turntables, dudes just yelling in a microphone 1:59:52.200 --> 1:59:56.280 like it's done. But like that same type of music 1:59:56.400 --> 1:59:58.920 and that culture, that hip hop culture right there, It's 1:59:59.000 --> 2:00:01.400 like I was able to move mountains with it, like 2:00:01.440 --> 2:00:03.600 you know what I'm saying. So it's like with AI, 2:00:04.600 --> 2:00:06.720 just at the same time where everybody's saying like shit 2:00:06.840 --> 2:00:08.880 is dry, shit has done, and shit sound the same, 2:00:09.000 --> 2:00:10.840 or this and that, this and that, and then it's like, 2:00:11.000 --> 2:00:13.760 oh they're doing AI. I still haven't heard the song 2:00:13.840 --> 2:00:16.440 or I haven't met anybody who's heard the song. And 2:00:16.560 --> 2:00:17.960 it's like hey bro, you got to hit this new 2:00:18.000 --> 2:00:21.600 AI shit like you know what I'm saying. No, But 2:00:22.720 --> 2:00:26.120 like even but a person can't wait to tell you, like, man, 2:00:26.200 --> 2:00:28.600 hey bro, you know this AI, right? They can't. They can't, 2:00:28.600 --> 2:00:30.120 you know what I'm saying. They're like, you can you 2:00:30.200 --> 2:00:30.800 condamn there? 2:00:31.120 --> 2:00:31.320 Yeah? 2:00:31.320 --> 2:00:33.520 You can damn there here like when it's AI. So 2:00:33.600 --> 2:00:35.840 you gotta utilize it like a tool. If you can't 2:00:35.880 --> 2:00:38.520 get a big choir, utilize it like that. Or if 2:00:38.560 --> 2:00:40.520 you can't get this so you can't get that, you 2:00:40.600 --> 2:00:43.760 gotta utilize it like that. But but that's like that's 2:00:43.840 --> 2:00:46.040 like if you get like a keyboard and you just 2:00:46.160 --> 2:00:48.880 go get the stock beats. Nobody goes to the keyboard 2:00:48.920 --> 2:00:51.160 and gets the stock beats. They use a keyboard and 2:00:51.240 --> 2:00:54.040 make beats. Like you know what I'm saying, Nobody expects 2:00:54.080 --> 2:00:55.760 to use the stock beats. So when you go to 2:00:55.880 --> 2:00:58.040 like these AI platforms, they showing you what it can do, 2:00:58.400 --> 2:00:59.560 you know what I'm saying. But that's just showing you 2:00:59.600 --> 2:01:01.280 what it could do. Now you got to utilize the 2:01:01.320 --> 2:01:04.200 motherfucker like a keyboard or whatever. And you gotta utilize 2:01:04.240 --> 2:01:07.000 it like a tool and and and expand the sound 2:01:07.080 --> 2:01:09.240 you know what I'm saying, But you know, a certain 2:01:09.360 --> 2:01:11.920 certain people of creativity level just hit right here, you 2:01:11.960 --> 2:01:13.600 know what I'm saying. It's all about. 2:01:14.920 --> 2:01:15.480 You know what I'm saying. 2:01:16.360 --> 2:01:18.560 I mean, I think I think there's there's pros and 2:01:18.640 --> 2:01:20.920 concert because there's definitely I saw something. 2:01:20.960 --> 2:01:22.320 I don't know how accurate this report is. 2:01:22.360 --> 2:01:24.440 They said that some of the top music that was 2:01:24.480 --> 2:01:28.000 playing on Spotify was all AI generated groups. 2:01:28.920 --> 2:01:31.240 And and but at the same time, like right now, 2:01:31.280 --> 2:01:34.080 you know, at the same time, if somebody wasn't a 2:01:34.160 --> 2:01:37.960 student of the game, or wasn't like like a student 2:01:38.000 --> 2:01:41.920 of music, or wasn't a creator or like hasn't created 2:01:41.960 --> 2:01:44.080 any type of music, it's gonna be hard for them 2:01:44.120 --> 2:01:46.280 to pull up one of these AI you know what 2:01:46.320 --> 2:01:50.040 I'm saying platforms or whatever, or the apps or whatever 2:01:50.200 --> 2:01:51.720 and and make a song. 2:01:52.720 --> 2:01:54.080 They already have to have it in them. 2:01:55.800 --> 2:01:58.600 It got to somewhere, It got to come from somewhere. 2:01:58.680 --> 2:02:01.480 So it's like like you got to even know like, 2:02:01.560 --> 2:02:03.600 oh man, let me mix this with that. And you 2:02:03.640 --> 2:02:05.040 know what I'm saying, it's just like cooking. You can 2:02:05.120 --> 2:02:06.760 go in the kitchen with a whole bunch of season 2:02:06.840 --> 2:02:09.880 and the sauces and protein and whatever. You know what 2:02:09.920 --> 2:02:11.680 I'm saying. You can fuck the shit up, you can 2:02:11.760 --> 2:02:13.440 burn it, you can do whatever it is, like you 2:02:13.480 --> 2:02:15.120 know what I'm saying, or not cook it all the way, right, 2:02:15.160 --> 2:02:17.160 you can get sick and all that shit, or you 2:02:17.240 --> 2:02:20.120 can we got we got a cookoff. We can use 2:02:20.120 --> 2:02:22.520 the same season or whatever, and we can make two 2:02:22.600 --> 2:02:24.760 totally different dishes, like you know what I'm saying. So 2:02:24.840 --> 2:02:26.920 it's like, it's all about how you use that shit, 2:02:27.040 --> 2:02:30.720 you know what I'm saying. And if somebody uses the 2:02:30.800 --> 2:02:33.480 AI shit and it's cheesy, they will probably go in 2:02:33.480 --> 2:02:35.000 the studio make a cheesy joint too. 2:02:35.480 --> 2:02:37.520 But the argument could be made. 2:02:38.240 --> 2:02:39.960 You know, these tech companies are kind of like the 2:02:40.000 --> 2:02:42.320 new record labels, right, We kind of could say that 2:02:43.680 --> 2:02:45.720 the tech companies they're kind of like the new record 2:02:45.800 --> 2:02:49.840 labels in a sense. The streaming platforms, the social media 2:02:50.400 --> 2:02:52.040 music is being promoted a lot. 2:02:52.400 --> 2:02:56.000 Yeah, but it's different because the music. I just say 2:02:56.040 --> 2:02:59.280 it's different because those a more retail and like, you 2:02:59.360 --> 2:03:03.200 know what I'm saying, record labels are more distribution. 2:03:03.320 --> 2:03:08.000 Right, right, but they distribute now through DSPs exactly retail, right, 2:03:08.080 --> 2:03:09.960 But it's not like old school where you had to 2:03:10.040 --> 2:03:13.240 go physically, and they're still using tech, is what I'm saying. 2:03:13.720 --> 2:03:16.240 The texts are now the gatekeeper the distribution. 2:03:16.720 --> 2:03:20.120 So my thing is that my worry is that just 2:03:20.280 --> 2:03:23.520 like the idea that maybe record labels at some point 2:03:23.600 --> 2:03:27.360 started dumbing down music to a degree to make it 2:03:27.520 --> 2:03:29.080 easier for them to reproduce it and. 2:03:29.120 --> 2:03:29.880 Make money off of it. 2:03:29.960 --> 2:03:32.760 And I have to deal with talent, real talent, you 2:03:32.800 --> 2:03:35.320 know what I'm saying, Maybe this happens in AI like 2:03:35.920 --> 2:03:41.160 these DSPs, these tech companies eventually start phasing out. Like 2:03:41.280 --> 2:03:43.240 of course you're never going to be replaced, but it's 2:03:43.240 --> 2:03:45.360 I'm talking about the generation under you and the generation 2:03:45.520 --> 2:03:49.440 under that. If they started getting desensitized to real music, 2:03:50.240 --> 2:03:51.560 then AI becomes a problem. 2:03:52.800 --> 2:03:56.040 Yeah, it's all about I feel like when they're kind 2:03:56.080 --> 2:03:58.840 of like being able to produce and like being able 2:03:58.880 --> 2:04:01.360 to create music. Man, all about how good of a 2:04:01.440 --> 2:04:03.320 student you were, you know what I'm saying, Like the 2:04:03.400 --> 2:04:06.360 best artists, the best producers, the best everything, they were 2:04:06.480 --> 2:04:09.160 a student of something of the music, you know what 2:04:09.160 --> 2:04:13.080 I'm saying. So it's like and then it's all about 2:04:13.200 --> 2:04:16.800 your your creativity level and how you collaborate. The best 2:04:16.840 --> 2:04:19.200 song is the best collaboration, you know what I'm saying. 2:04:19.280 --> 2:04:21.840 So at the end of the day, it's like I 2:04:21.920 --> 2:04:24.840 don't I don't see AI. Like I said, if once 2:04:24.920 --> 2:04:27.280 I hear that song, that's like I ain't gonna lie this. 2:04:27.760 --> 2:04:29.720 I can't go without hearing this song, Like you know 2:04:29.720 --> 2:04:32.960 what I'm saying. For the most part, it's still like 2:04:33.240 --> 2:04:37.040 artists that people are connecting to. Sometimes it might be songs. 2:04:37.080 --> 2:04:40.000 It's just you know what I'm saying, that's just playing 2:04:40.080 --> 2:04:43.160 and somebody might have created something that's easy on the 2:04:43.240 --> 2:04:45.640 ears and putting the right marketing dollars behind it and 2:04:45.760 --> 2:04:48.200 pushing it a certain type of way that you know 2:04:48.240 --> 2:04:52.400 what I'm saying that, But you know, like that's cool. 2:04:52.560 --> 2:04:55.280 That's that's like their creation and that's what they push, 2:04:55.680 --> 2:04:58.800 and that's like it's gonna connect just like another song 2:04:58.960 --> 2:05:01.920 is gonna connect or like anything everything has. It's like 2:05:02.240 --> 2:05:05.160 like like its moments type shit, if that makes sense. 2:05:05.280 --> 2:05:08.080 And I just I just feel like the AI shit 2:05:08.200 --> 2:05:10.720 is like it's so broad that it's like it could 2:05:10.760 --> 2:05:12.480 be used as a tool or it could be used 2:05:12.480 --> 2:05:15.040 to make a whole song. And I don't think I 2:05:15.120 --> 2:05:17.720 don't think it's like US versus AI thing. I think 2:05:17.760 --> 2:05:20.520 it's like how do we utilize AI to make the 2:05:21.360 --> 2:05:25.520 biggest joint? And because you got the technology side, but 2:05:25.640 --> 2:05:28.720 then we're still real humans, Like we're still going outside, 2:05:28.760 --> 2:05:31.960 were still seeing shit, We're still hearing cars ride by, 2:05:32.480 --> 2:05:34.320 like you know what I'm saying, Like we still in 2:05:34.440 --> 2:05:37.960 the barbershops, We still like amongst people. So it's like 2:05:38.400 --> 2:05:41.520 you got that world just like just like you got 2:05:41.840 --> 2:05:43.760 the world where people sitting in the house with the 2:05:43.800 --> 2:05:46.360 gaggos all day and they be somewhere in the metaverse 2:05:46.360 --> 2:05:47.600 and all that kind of shit, Like you know what 2:05:47.600 --> 2:05:50.000 I'm saying, Like you got that world, and you got 2:05:50.240 --> 2:05:53.040 like like the real world, like is that ship playing 2:05:53.080 --> 2:05:54.880 in the in the cars and the clubs and the 2:05:55.040 --> 2:05:58.160 radio or is the people playing there or people talking 2:05:58.160 --> 2:06:00.440 about it? Did the impact culture like you know what 2:06:00.440 --> 2:06:03.800 I'm saying in any type of way, Like did anybody 2:06:03.920 --> 2:06:06.080 care that this joint came out? You know what I'm saying? 2:06:06.440 --> 2:06:09.720 And that's I think that's something that they're gonna have 2:06:09.800 --> 2:06:12.120 to figure out. It's like what's gonna be the presence 2:06:12.320 --> 2:06:15.640 with this AI person or this ar artist or whatever 2:06:16.280 --> 2:06:16.960 in the real. 2:06:16.880 --> 2:06:21.840 World questions about this song. What just give me one 2:06:22.920 --> 2:06:29.000 word DNA electrifying. We can't stop. 2:06:30.880 --> 2:06:40.800 I just said game change right, Uh, trend sting. Okay, 2:06:43.240 --> 2:06:46.600 they tell me that something won't gonna work really yeah, 2:06:48.160 --> 2:06:51.480 Well we can't because yeah, because at that time, pop 2:06:51.600 --> 2:06:54.280 radio was eighty m so it's at a certain tempo 2:06:54.840 --> 2:06:58.280 and we can't start was like this party. We can 2:06:58.400 --> 2:07:01.840 do what we want. And it's like, Bro, no matter 2:07:01.920 --> 2:07:04.040 what you do, Bro, you cannot slow down pop radio. 2:07:04.760 --> 2:07:07.400 It ain't gonna happen.
