What we say is like like, that's 0:29:59.520 --> 0:30:01.240 the only time you should take a shot when we 0:30:01.320 --> 0:30:03.560 do this. You know what I'm saying, because one watches 0:30:03.600 --> 0:30:06.960 the other, and especially in this game, Like I just 0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:11.400 looked at your face and I know that. Yeah, Salo, Salo, Salo. 0:30:14.360 --> 0:30:18.040 So let's talk about the advantages of being on major labels. 0:30:18.120 --> 0:30:21.480 I think you was on Republic, right Universal. I believe 0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:23.360 he was on Interscope. Yeah, I believe that at one time. 0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:27.280 You even spend some time with Gazi over there at Empire. 0:30:27.680 --> 0:30:29.840 What is the pluses for people that's trying to come 0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:32.680 into this game, for a young person that's looking up 0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:34.200 to you and they say, all right, cool, what is 0:30:34.240 --> 0:30:36.480 the pluses of being with a major Because I'm a 0:30:36.480 --> 0:30:39.040 major label guy. He's an independent guy. But we both 0:30:39.280 --> 0:30:42.040 make compromises. So can you explain to a person who's 0:30:42.080 --> 0:30:44.400 been sleeping under a rock and doesn't know Kanye is 0:30:44.440 --> 0:30:46.560 not making sneakers no more so? 0:30:46.880 --> 0:30:50.080 Can you explain to them the major verse. 0:30:50.360 --> 0:30:54.360 What I'm to say. Major labels, they're like a Chico. 0:30:54.600 --> 0:30:57.560 You know what I'm saying, they have all the relationships 0:30:57.560 --> 0:31:00.720 they've been building for twenty and thirty years, forty fifty whatever, 0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:01.520 how many years. 0:31:02.280 --> 0:31:02.920 You know what I'm saying. 0:31:03.880 --> 0:31:08.760 They have everything, the whole infrastructure of what they've been 0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:13.200 building for twenty and thirty years. I feel like being independent, 0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:16.440 you have to use your own relationships. You know what 0:31:16.480 --> 0:31:19.600 I'm saying that as a rapper or artist, you might 0:31:19.640 --> 0:31:21.400 have only been in the game for like four or 0:31:21.400 --> 0:31:23.360 five years. You know what I'm saying, You got to 0:31:23.480 --> 0:31:26.760 use all them. But they got every every single person 0:31:26.920 --> 0:31:31.280 on Spotify, every single Purple on Apple Music, Amazon, you 0:31:31.360 --> 0:31:37.400 know what I'm saying, to everything, every single person on Uber, Lift, Airbnb, whatever. 0:31:38.160 --> 0:31:39.640 You know what I'm saying, They got everybody. 0:31:39.680 --> 0:31:41.520 Wait talking about this, I'm old, what the fuck they're 0:31:41.600 --> 0:31:43.920 hiring Uber Travis Now, I'm just saying, they. 0:31:45.880 --> 0:31:46.440 Of everything. 0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:47.360 You know what I'm saying. 0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:50.120 That's ill, Like you're getting a card play your ship 0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:54.240 you didn't even know it their own are. 0:31:54.200 --> 0:31:55.000 Even thinking of you? 0:31:55.160 --> 0:31:59.400 I say, like you hire Elon Holy Yeah. 0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:03.000 Yeah, there's definitely some ups and downs to being signed 0:32:03.040 --> 0:32:04.760 to a level where being you know what I'm saying. 0:32:04.760 --> 0:32:06.880 So, but but you were independent. 0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:09.880 Yeah, you were doing independent stuff before ever science, Yeah 0:32:09.880 --> 0:32:12.160 for sure, and you already had some success. And that's 0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:15.560 my argument that if you find success independently, then you 0:32:15.600 --> 0:32:16.960 could make a better deal with the mayor. 0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:17.840 Here's my argument. 0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:20.280 Yes, by the way, I don't disagree with that, but 0:32:20.320 --> 0:32:22.960 here's my argument. This is what I always think. I 0:32:23.040 --> 0:32:25.480 always think, you signed to the major, let them spend 0:32:25.520 --> 0:32:28.360 that bag on you. Yeah, because once they can't take 0:32:28.400 --> 0:32:29.120 back fame. 0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:32.480 For sure, Like I get to a level where you 0:32:32.480 --> 0:32:35.560 don't need a label, Yes, for sure, that's definitely possible. 0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:41.080 I feel like sometimes signed to a label and just 0:32:41.160 --> 0:32:45.880 waiting on that, or sign into a label and you 0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:49.320 signed to them, you're not knowing exactly what you're gonna get, 0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:50.240 you know what I'm saying. 0:32:50.280 --> 0:32:53.480 You could have of course, the contract that says they're. 0:32:53.320 --> 0:32:55.160 Gonna spend that bag, they're gonna spend it how they 0:32:55.200 --> 0:32:57.160 want to and when they want to, you know what 0:32:57.160 --> 0:33:01.440 I'm saying. So like one, for instance, Raydeo labels don't 0:33:01.440 --> 0:33:03.200 spend a lot of money over They don't like to 0:33:03.200 --> 0:33:05.360 spend a lot of money on radio because they don't 0:33:05.400 --> 0:33:06.920 really make money off radio. You know what I'm saying, 0:33:06.960 --> 0:33:10.040 the artists book shows and they get money off radio. 0:33:10.160 --> 0:33:14.320 So unless you are high like super streaming artists and 0:33:14.360 --> 0:33:17.680 that song is already gone and going there, they're not 0:33:17.760 --> 0:33:19.320 really gonna they'll double down on that. 0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:21.080 You know what I'm saying because I heard you say 0:33:21.120 --> 0:33:23.600 that if you signed with a label, whoever, they star 0:33:23.800 --> 0:33:26.440 artists want to treat exact way. 0:33:27.160 --> 0:33:28.720 Like when I was signed to Republic. 0:33:28.760 --> 0:33:31.640 I'm like, y'all got the Weekend, y'all got Nigga Minaj. 0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:34.080 I want the same treatment y'all give them, I'm saying 0:33:34.080 --> 0:33:37.480 because I'm that caliber right for sure? 0:33:37.520 --> 0:33:40.560 Hell yeah, I mean that's why you know listen, man, 0:33:41.480 --> 0:33:42.680 I love fucking. 0:33:42.360 --> 0:33:43.320 Five star hotel. 0:33:43.400 --> 0:33:44.040 Yeah for sure. 0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:50.280 And when I went from major to independent, oh, I 0:33:50.400 --> 0:33:53.800 must have sounded like a Prima donna. All them niggas 0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:57.360 booked me in the motel, I said, Holy moly, I'm platinum. 0:33:58.320 --> 0:34:01.760 Just don't go together. I was me. I was a 0:34:02.000 --> 0:34:04.600 mad as a motherfucker. I was like, this independence shit 0:34:04.640 --> 0:34:04.920 ain't me. 0:34:05.080 --> 0:34:07.760 But that was because I was so pampered at the time, 0:34:08.239 --> 0:34:12.880 Like going from Depth Jam to fucking gold Face Records. 0:34:13.480 --> 0:34:15.880 It just didn't work out for me. But if I 0:34:15.880 --> 0:34:19.319 would have grinded it out. But but again we you 0:34:19.400 --> 0:34:22.520 guys have direct to consumer, like you don't have to 0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:26.759 go it's a different Independence is a better independent. 0:34:26.280 --> 0:34:28.440 Like you're sure your fans could go with you. Do 0:34:28.440 --> 0:34:29.600 you feel your fans with with you? 0:34:29.719 --> 0:34:33.400 Yeah, But it's also about what you want out of 0:34:33.480 --> 0:34:35.840 being an artist and what you want out of your career. 0:34:35.880 --> 0:34:39.320 You know what I'm saying. I don't know some things 0:34:39.760 --> 0:34:43.560 that it's really difficult to do as being an independent artist, 0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:46.400 you feel me. So it just really depends on what 0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:48.440 you want out of it and how much ownership you 0:34:48.480 --> 0:34:48.800 want it. 0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:51.799 You might regret now like you're saying now you're about 0:34:51.800 --> 0:34:53.680 to get the rights reverted back. 0:34:53.760 --> 0:34:54.839 Yeah, you know what I'm saying. 0:34:54.880 --> 0:34:57.520 But that's because you signed a deal and that you 0:34:57.600 --> 0:34:59.160 didn't on your your master's. 0:34:58.880 --> 0:35:02.600 I want to get spooky for second weird That ship 0:35:02.640 --> 0:35:03.360 sounds crazy. 0:35:03.480 --> 0:35:05.760 The reason why I'm gonna say that right. 0:35:07.640 --> 0:35:10.560 Because I was the young nigga from the hood that 0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:14.000 took that deal that didn't read the contract.

I feel 0:48:17.000 --> 0:48:20.400 like to where I want to go, and I have a. 0:48:20.560 --> 0:48:22.320 Vision of exactly where I want to go and exactly 0:48:22.360 --> 0:48:22.880 what I want to do. 0:48:23.200 --> 0:48:26.200 I feel like I'm just just getting started.

Internationally. 0:48:31.480 --> 0:48:33.600 I think I think a lot of artists here in 0:48:33.680 --> 0:48:36.040 the US they don't see the international properly. 0:48:37.000 --> 0:48:37.759 You know what I think. 0:48:40.440 --> 0:48:43.719 I think you've made so much success for yourself, Solf, 0:48:44.520 --> 0:48:47.279 that you're going to continue to be successful. 0:48:46.760 --> 0:48:50.520 But people don't compare you to you. Yeah, you understand 0:48:50.560 --> 0:48:53.520 what I'm trying to say, Like to the time, like 0:48:53.640 --> 0:48:55.480 you're going to go through what Kanye went through. 0:48:55.480 --> 0:49:00.440 Like because you like, like all of your beginning records 0:49:00.480 --> 0:49:03.400 are all hits, and all their records now are continuing 0:49:03.400 --> 0:49:05.719 to be hits. So then I can compare it to 0:49:05.760 --> 0:49:09.520 another artist, especially you so unique that they can't so 0:49:09.560 --> 0:49:10.719 they can compare you to you. 0:49:11.000 --> 0:49:12.279 How's it gonna feel to battle you? 0:49:14.600 --> 0:49:18.759 I don't know who's gonna win who in regards. 0:49:20.880 --> 0:49:22.400 I mean, that's dope, you know what I mean?

That's the only person should be battling. 0:49:56.360 --> 0:50:00.120 No, no, no, you are correct, that's the only you 0:50:00.160 --> 0:50:03.160 should be battling. But there's a lot of people.

What I'm trying to 0:50:05.239 --> 0:50:07.360 say is you're in a very unique situation where you 0:50:07.480 --> 0:50:10.160 don't actually have to be in competition with anybody else. 0:50:10.320 --> 0:50:10.840 You got to be in. 0:50:10.840 --> 0:50:13.640 Competition with your old shit. But guess what, your old 0:50:13.680 --> 0:50:16.640 ship ain't most shit. So you're going to try to 0:50:16.880 --> 0:50:17.080 do that. 0:50:17.160 --> 0:50:17.839 How does that feel? 0:50:19.600 --> 0:50:20.279 It feels great? 0:50:20.440 --> 0:50:20.520 Bro. 0:50:20.960 --> 0:50:24.920 It's a challenge, it's definitely a challenge, But you know, 0:50:26.880 --> 0:50:28.160 I could have worse problems. 0:50:28.680 --> 0:50:29.040 For sure. 0:50:29.160 --> 0:50:30.680 You know what I'm saying, I'm trying to make a 0:50:30.800 --> 0:50:33.800 better record than Carnival.

It was tied 1:05:53.240 --> 1:05:56.040 in and then I played the New Freezer. He's like, yo, bro, 1:05:57.520 --> 1:05:59.480 Kendrick wants to meet you. I told him I was 1:05:59.520 --> 1:06:01.360 signing you and ship. He wants to meet you. I'm 1:06:01.360 --> 1:06:04.120 recording at the studio.

I'm like, oh shit, 1:06:18.960 --> 1:06:22.160 I'm like all right, man. So I played them two songs. 1:06:22.280 --> 1:06:27.960 I played them one song and then the second song 1:06:28.040 --> 1:06:32.880 I played him was New Freezer. So when I'm playing 1:06:32.960 --> 1:06:36.840 New Freezer for him, he like this the one he 1:06:37.040 --> 1:06:37.760 like this the one. 1:06:38.680 --> 1:06:39.840 I was like, that is the one. 1:06:39.960 --> 1:06:40.480 You know what I'm saying. 1:06:40.480 --> 1:06:42.160 I was like, yo. 1:06:42.680 --> 1:06:48.000 But at the time, there was a verse from Asap 1:06:48.160 --> 1:06:52.120 fer on New Freezer. Because when I record a New Freezer, 1:06:52.840 --> 1:06:56.080 I was at Quad Studios in New York. It was 1:06:56.560 --> 1:07:01.720 first it was a fird session, so Ferg had left out. 1:07:01.760 --> 1:07:03.680 I think he was doing some shit with Buster in 1:07:03.880 --> 1:07:04.440 the other room. 1:07:04.560 --> 1:07:05.200 That said. 1:07:07.040 --> 1:07:09.680 He was doing some shit with Buster, and then I 1:07:09.800 --> 1:07:13.040 didn't new freezing. I think I recorded like fifteen minutes 1:07:14.080 --> 1:07:17.560 and then he put a verse on it. So I 1:07:17.640 --> 1:07:19.840 played it for Kendrick. He was like, all right, cool, 1:07:19.960 --> 1:07:22.320 I get on it, but it just got to be 1:07:22.480 --> 1:07:26.120 me and you on the song type shit. I was like, damn, 1:07:27.200 --> 1:07:30.400 you know what I'm saying, we gotta go, you know, 1:07:31.160 --> 1:07:35.360 conversation Yeah, a good dude. No, definitely a good dude. 1:07:35.600 --> 1:07:38.040 So yeah, he definitely understood, and he was like, yeah, bro, 1:07:38.320 --> 1:07:41.160 deal ship. You know what I'm saying. Definitely go and 1:07:41.360 --> 1:07:44.360 drop the ship. So I dropped Kendrick and it was like. 1:07:47.320 --> 1:07:47.720 Out of here. 1:07:48.280 --> 1:07:49.800 Yeah, I told the girl. 1:07:49.880 --> 1:07:50.200 It was like. 1:07:50.400 --> 1:07:53.840 That was three months later after I had brought my 1:07:53.920 --> 1:07:55.840 way out my deal ship. 1:07:56.440 --> 1:08:01.880 And because you know, as you I just want to 1:08:01.920 --> 1:08:08.920 say this to the artists. Most execs thinks they're smarter 1:08:09.040 --> 1:08:12.920 than us. So when you ask the exit, they're actually 1:08:13.000 --> 1:08:18.240 laughing at us just being out, they're actually laughing at 1:08:18.320 --> 1:08:22.679 us because they're gonna say he'll be back or help. 1:08:23.360 --> 1:08:28.040 So the fact is what you did is it's phenomenal. 1:08:28.120 --> 1:08:30.280 You know, you did it honorable. I didn't see no 1:08:30.439 --> 1:08:35.280 fuck QC campaign. I didn't see no, you know, fuck 1:08:35.360 --> 1:08:37.519 three hundred campaign, just like I just want. 1:08:37.439 --> 1:08:39.680 To move on and do my ship. And you did it. 1:08:39.760 --> 1:08:40.120 You did it. 1:08:40.600 --> 1:08:41.880 That ship is that ship is ill. 1:08:42.120 --> 1:08:43.800 And that's the reason why I think that they like 1:08:44.120 --> 1:08:46.240 they're not bothering you, like they're not like trying to 1:08:46.360 --> 1:08:48.920 like sabotage you a black boy youth because you know, you. 1:08:48.920 --> 1:08:52.719 Did good business. But I got a question that paying 1:08:52.800 --> 1:08:55.360 for so you you made that move. 1:08:56.160 --> 1:08:57.920 Do you do you ever feel because you were honest 1:08:57.960 --> 1:08:59.719 with Interscope about your situation. 1:09:00.120 --> 1:09:02.240 Yeah, he was honest with Manny Smith. 1:09:02.400 --> 1:09:06.320 That wasn't he didn't represent any school he did, So 1:09:06.479 --> 1:09:07.160 you're being honest. 1:09:09.320 --> 1:09:11.479 So you know, you're kind of showing your vulnerability to 1:09:11.600 --> 1:09:14.719 the label. You know, when you got these this contract 1:09:14.760 --> 1:09:18.280 from them, you went through it thoroughly. I'm assuming you 1:09:18.320 --> 1:09:19.840 want to make sure that they're not saying, oh, he 1:09:20.160 --> 1:09:22.360 needs this, so we try to sneak this and sneak 1:09:22.400 --> 1:09:22.560 in this. 1:09:22.880 --> 1:09:22.920 No. 1:09:23.120 --> 1:09:24.799 Yeah, I fulfill the contract. 1:09:25.320 --> 1:09:31.160 But I mean I thought myself for like. 1:09:32.640 --> 1:09:35.760 Like kind of getting into it with them, for like, 1:09:36.280 --> 1:09:38.920 like I said, like feeling like I wasn't treated like 1:09:39.000 --> 1:09:41.280 their biggest artists or something like that. So I kind 1:09:41.320 --> 1:09:43.840 of like really got into it with them, like oh, 1:09:44.479 --> 1:09:46.519 getting pissed off because you got to think about it. 1:09:46.640 --> 1:09:50.320 I'm not knowing I'm not knowing shit about no label business. 1:09:50.800 --> 1:09:54.160 I'm coming straight off the streets.

So I kind of got 1:10:02.560 --> 1:10:05.240 into it with them and I had to leave In 1:10:05.320 --> 1:10:07.759 the scope, They're like, Okay, you can't be on Interscope 1:10:07.760 --> 1:10:09.200 anymore type ship because. 1:10:09.000 --> 1:10:10.920 That would have been your first official rollout on a 1:10:11.200 --> 1:10:11.679 mad Yeah. 1:10:11.720 --> 1:10:14.120 Yeah, right, yeah, I dropped the I dropped the album 1:10:14.320 --> 1:10:16.559 with them and with Number two and share on bill Boys. 1:10:17.000 --> 1:10:19.360 But after that, after that, like I was getting into 1:10:19.439 --> 1:10:22.679 it with them because I feel like just some things 1:10:23.720 --> 1:10:26.320 wasn't you know what I'm saying, How I wanted to 1:10:26.439 --> 1:10:27.080 you feel what I'm saying. 1:10:27.120 --> 1:10:30.200 And I got into it and they let me go 1:10:30.280 --> 1:10:30.919 to the Republic. 1:10:31.479 --> 1:10:33.160 That's the thing about in the Scope, it seems like 1:10:33.200 --> 1:10:36.240 they either fully got your back or not at all? 1:10:36.760 --> 1:10:39.960 Right, Like I mean, did that feel like that for you? 1:10:41.320 --> 1:10:41.559 Man? 1:10:41.760 --> 1:10:44.000 I just I feel like it is what it is 1:10:44.080 --> 1:10:45.519 at this point, you know what I'm saying. 1:10:46.080 --> 1:10:51.320 Like they did with the Yeah, well I needed the 1:10:51.400 --> 1:10:54.280 ship was insane, you know what I'm saying.

I 1:23:45.479 --> 1:23:47.559 went to one club, to another club, to another club, 1:23:48.280 --> 1:23:50.799 rode on the train. I ain't have no money to get. 1:23:50.720 --> 1:23:51.360 Home after that. 1:23:51.960 --> 1:23:54.560 So and then I'm just signing to you, putting my 1:23:54.720 --> 1:23:57.080 music in your hands. And then you're telling me I 1:23:57.120 --> 1:23:59.360 can't do this, I can't do that, this has to 1:23:59.439 --> 1:24:01.679 be Then this, I'm like, what the fuck? 1:24:01.840 --> 1:24:02.040 Man? 1:24:02.080 --> 1:24:02.560 What is you? 1:24:02.680 --> 1:24:03.320 What is going on? 1:24:03.760 --> 1:24:07.320 You know what I'm saying, But that's business. The day, 1:24:07.439 --> 1:24:10.000 that's business. You sign a contract and we know that business. 1:24:10.000 --> 1:24:11.400 You feel I'm saying, you sign a contract in. 1:24:11.400 --> 1:24:13.360 This says, but you know what, it's not really fair 1:24:13.400 --> 1:24:15.559 business if you think about if the if the opposite 1:24:15.640 --> 1:24:18.400 person in that business transaction doesn't know the business. Now 1:24:18.439 --> 1:24:21.479 do you think do you think that because in our 1:24:21.600 --> 1:24:25.040 in the nineties there was there was artist development. 1:24:25.880 --> 1:24:28.240 You wouldn't sign and just go out to the public. 1:24:28.560 --> 1:24:30.479 They would put you through a process like a boot 1:24:30.520 --> 1:24:32.280 camp to understand stuff. 1:24:32.280 --> 1:24:33.360 Do you think that that's needed? 1:24:34.520 --> 1:24:34.720 Man? 1:24:34.880 --> 1:24:38.920 Nowadays, that's bro. They signed so many people off of whatever. 1:24:39.600 --> 1:24:42.439 I don't know. That's I don't even sink that's possible. 1:24:42.520 --> 1:24:44.840 No, it's not possible, but no, no, but it is 1:24:44.920 --> 1:24:47.240 possible because because the artist, because. 1:24:47.000 --> 1:24:49.439 Of the artist stuff is in real time, we can't 1:24:49.479 --> 1:24:50.280 do that. But hit me out. 1:24:50.360 --> 1:24:53.639 That's like you signed his artist and him not telling 1:24:53.680 --> 1:24:56.160 him to listen. You know, most people respect when you 1:24:56.200 --> 1:24:58.719 don't rhy on for the vocals. That's kind of artist. 1:24:58.600 --> 1:25:01.640 Development right there. True him just saying that, you're just 1:25:01.680 --> 1:25:02.840 saying to famous decks. Yo. 1:25:02.920 --> 1:25:06.679 It's different too, because like I've never used the writer ever, 1:25:07.320 --> 1:25:09.160 you know what I'm saying, So artists development, they could 1:25:09.200 --> 1:25:12.200 be like okay, now using right, and now you're doing 1:25:12.439 --> 1:25:14.320 the development. 1:25:18.439 --> 1:25:20.519 Artist development is showing you how to speak to readio. 1:25:20.560 --> 1:25:23.879 You're thinking about label side, there's management artists development. Management 1:25:23.960 --> 1:25:25.360 tells you about the artist development. 1:25:25.360 --> 1:25:27.960 That's a different part. Okay, that's the part you look 1:25:28.040 --> 1:25:28.160 and I. 1:25:28.160 --> 1:25:30.000 Don't think anybody's going to really kind of get this, 1:25:30.200 --> 1:25:32.760 But remember, ultimately, when you signed a record label, that's 1:25:32.760 --> 1:25:34.479 a loan, that's a that's a bank loan. 1:25:35.479 --> 1:25:38.840 You know that they don't understand that. They don't understand that. 1:25:38.920 --> 1:25:41.040 They just know at the end of this check, at 1:25:41.040 --> 1:25:44.639 the end of this contract is a check. My lawyer 1:25:44.720 --> 1:25:47.519 whatever he said, it's cool. I know I'm about to 1:25:47.520 --> 1:25:49.280 get this money tomorrow. 1:25:51.880 --> 1:25:54.200 In the context of that, In the context of that, 1:25:54.360 --> 1:25:56.640 you know that they that back in the days when 1:25:56.680 --> 1:26:00.639 they was given credit cards to sixteen year old kids 1:26:00.680 --> 1:26:03.160 from that age on, they called the predatory lending and 1:26:03.240 --> 1:26:05.840 it became a big lawsuit and they called and then 1:26:05.920 --> 1:26:08.720 they suit all the banks.
