If it's who we are, it's 38 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: just a day in the life pizza kind of SuDS. 39 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: I suppose it is who we are. We met because 40 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: you made a song called eating Pizza. I did, and 41 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: Bridget and I was like, Yo, check out this, what 42 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: is this? I was like, I need to make pizza. 43 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: Paze man, You know what I'm saying, what was your 44 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: inspiration behind the song eating Pizza. 45 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 2: Well, honestly, at the time, that was one of the 46 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: first singles I put out when I began working on 47 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 2: music full time, and the only thing that was open 48 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: in the area every day when it was time for 49 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 2: me to feel hungry enough and ready to pause the 50 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 2: work I was doing to eat was a pizza place 51 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 2: down the street. So it turned into my comfort food 52 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: because this is my only food. This is a time 53 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: when I was trying to be as much in the 54 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: studio as possible. I think the first month of twenty nineteen, 55 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: I spent thirty days in the studio twice, but I 56 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: spent thirty days in the studio, So I've tested that 57 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 2: with keeping me going in my survival and being alive 58 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: in music. Wow. 59 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: So even though I made you something different today, it 60 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: sounds like pizza might have been number two on your list. 61 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean you asked me about nostalgia. You know, 62 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: comfort food and comfort goes to certain places. So that's 63 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: the one I gave you about me growing up. But 64 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: as far as me growing in my career, that's where 65 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: piece it comes in. 66 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: I like how you're able to kind of separate, the 67 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: difference between growing up and having those the memories of 68 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: formation right as a human, not just about music, and 69 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: then you're also able to have the nostalgia about your 70 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: career and your path forward. You might need to start 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: putting out like a nostalgia breakdown list for people to 72 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: be like, look, this is the nostalgia of like home. Yes, 73 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: it's a nostalgia community. 74 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: You know, when you work in entertainment, sometimes the worlds 75 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: do merge, but there are things that are definitely separate. 76 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: Because before we were in front of cameras, before we're 77 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: doing music, we already had stories that we were involved 78 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: in their lives. Yeah, so this the meal that we 79 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: have today is a reflection of my actual life as 80 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: opposed to where I was able to grow. 81 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: Ooh, that's clearly a poet. I bet the listeners right 82 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: now are just like salivating and wondering what exactly did 83 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: you have me making? What is you? Why don't you 84 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: tell us what it is? Tell us the flavors and 85 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: smells and tastes about this growing up that you had, 86 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: and then we'll talk about what I did to make 87 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: it for you. 88 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm from the South, or my dad is from 89 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: the South. My mom is from Chicago, but still her 90 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: grandmother is from Memphis. But my dad being from Colonna, Louisiana, 91 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: which is somewhere in Saint Charles Parish that four or 92 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: five streets most people never heard of. But he had 93 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 2: eleven siblings. So my grandmother has twelve kids, six boys, 94 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: six girls. In that equation, you know, you figure out 95 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: that less is more when trying to keep a family 96 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: alive and surviving, especially in the circumstances that they had 97 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: because they weren't making much. I think my grandmother was 98 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 2: born on a planentation and lucy, so it's like a 99 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: lot of growth that happened immediately. So in part of that, 100 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: my dad embraced the lessons more attitude when it comes 101 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: down to his movements and it's cooking and everything like that. 102 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: So some days it was corn rice and sausage. So 103 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: today we have an amazing dish. It seems of corn 104 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: rice and some beyond sausage. Because in my own growth 105 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 2: that I kind of grew away from consuming traditional animal 106 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: based products, like twenty twelve is the last time I 107 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: remember eating chicken, and then so this twenty twelve hit, 108 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: then I kind of was like, you know what, let 109 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 2: me try not eat and meat and just kind of 110 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: eat seafood or fish when I feel like it's time 111 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: for it. And so now we have some beyond rice 112 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: and sausage. 113 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: Let me let me tell you, I really like the 114 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: I keep using the word poetry with you because it's 115 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: like the way you're telling the story about your family. 116 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: It's it's very much storytelling back in the day when 117 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: you used to eat meat, was it pork sausage. 118 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 2: Whatever was available at that time. Has got five brothers, 119 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: so all of them do hunting and fishing and gaming 120 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: by trade. So they all do that on the side. 121 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: So sometimes my uncle will bring a whole bunch of 122 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: deer meat. Sometimes my dad would take whatever he found 123 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 2: that the wind Dixie down the street and make that. 124 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 2: So it's whatever was available. But most of the time 125 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 2: pork sausage, pork sauce, hot sausage, hot smoke sausage. Yeah, 126 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: the sausage. 127 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: Then it's easy. 128 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: All you do you heat it up it up, don't 129 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 2: burn it. 130 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 1: Remember the Pink Poo place not far from here was 131 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: the hot sausage. 132 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 2: From Jeans store. I know it was on episode of 133 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: a sumption I know it's crazy. 134 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: Yo, but the hot sausage from there. So anyway, Yeah, 135 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: so sausage. I'll tell you what I did with this 136 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: to kind of create because you know the beyond meat. 137 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: I know they've got the sausages that are pre made. Yeah, 138 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: I guess they making a factory. But I don't know 139 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: what kind of flavor they putting in that they ain't 140 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: putting Tony's in there. They ain't put in enough garlic 141 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: pod and just enough, just enough to play it safe, 142 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, for their target audience. 143 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: We put some in there. 144 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: Okay, So when you were growing up and you took 145 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: a bite of this, like, what is it that makes 146 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: you feel so comforted? What is the memory that you have? 147 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: Not just like I understand you know there's different sausages 148 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: and this and that, but like sitting down, you know, 149 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: we're in your kitchen, were you with your family? What 150 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: happened when you took a bite or smelled it being 151 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: cooked in the house. 152 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: My dad has always been a full time musician, so 153 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: a lot of the time he was moving around, but 154 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: I remember a lot of the times when he was 155 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: able to control his own schedule. We need together so 156 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: it would be me my dad, my mom, my sister, 157 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: and my brother and we all eating together. So I 158 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: just remember the smell of corn rice and sausage making 159 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: me feel like, Okay, this is the time my family 160 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: is eating. It's not just when I refuse, you know, 161 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: it is look at each other and you know in 162 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 2: the face, we passed some jokes, talk about whatever is 163 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: going on, and just enjoy the presence of being a family. 164 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: Which after talking to some of the people I know 165 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: now you get older, you realize everybody didn't have the 166 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: same type of situation, right, So it allowed me to 167 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: put more value into who I was growing up. And 168 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: every bite is like family. 169 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: Every bite is like family.

I don't know what's beyond or impossible, 182 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: whatever brand it was of imitation meat. This is crucials. Sausage, 183 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: corn and right. So first things first, I had to 184 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: think corn. There's many ways you can eat corn, right. 185 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: I decided to do a semi creamed corn, right. So, 186 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was just thinking, like, okay, I 187 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: got rice, and if there's not some sort of sauce, 188 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: because the imitation meat isn't going to render fat, you 189 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, if this was just a sausage, 190 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: I might not have done a cream corn if I 191 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: was doing a report, because I would render the fat. 192 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: And then maybe I cooked the corn into that fat. 193 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: So I did butter a little milk to make kind 194 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: of like a roue with flour, and then I added 195 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: some seasoning and some green onion to that. Then I 196 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: added the corn, fresh corn to cob. Got it cooked. Honestly, 197 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: I just microwaved it. I don't know if people know 198 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: this about corn, for all you corn heads out there, 199 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: like people that do all this stuff. To get corn cooked, 200 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: just put it in a microwave for seven minutes and 201 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: then it's cooked. It's crazy, you know. I don't need 202 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: to spend thirty five minutes boiling water to put corn 203 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: in it, just to cook the corn. 204 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: Come on, frozen corn sometime. Premiate corn is how you 205 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 2: make let me tell you. And that's the whole thing. 206 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: It's doing the best with what you have. 207 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. And that's what family does for you. 208 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: The family just makes it with what they got exactly 209 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: and green ice okay great. 210 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: The older I got to realize how much vegetables added 211 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: more mass to what you're eating, so stop picking. 212 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: That is true. So made the cream corn. We're gonna 213 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: get the dish over here to you, and told before 214 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: you take a bite, I gotta tell you what I 215 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: did with the Beyond meat. I actually couldn't find a 216 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: regular pack of this Beyond meat or whatever brand it was. 217 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: I can only find the pre made meatball plant based. 218 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: So what I had to do is I had to 219 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: mash those meatballs together. I'm assuming they had some kind 220 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 1: of touch of Italian seasoning quote unquote, but I added 221 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: some seasoned salt, paprika, a little bit of cayenne, A 222 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: little bit of you gotta put a cayenne, all right. 223 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: So this is the moment of truth. I have prepared 224 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: the sausage, corn and rice for cruise with the three 225 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: days they get my friend and let me know what 226 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: goes on in that mind of yours. 227 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: I'm also with corn, rice and sausage because it's such 228 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: a like light list of ingredients. There's more for you 229 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 2: to eat. 230 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: I agree, I have got one bite taken. 231 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 2: When you hear your family, I'm telling you, yes, sir. 232 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 2: If I don't see none for three minutes because I'm processing. 233 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: Another place, it's gonna get real quiet here. 234 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: Only my body is here. 235 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: There's only a physical representation of crucial here. His taste 236 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: buds have gone elsewhere. How's the presentation amazing? 237 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 2: It is beautiful. The rice is full of not watering. 238 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: Wow, what you think about the flavor of the sausage. 239 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 2: Way better because at the time that you took to 240 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 2: season it. I move fast sometimes because I make music, 241 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 2: so it's a twenty four hour industry. Sometimes the studio 242 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 2: never closes. Sometimes when getting these meat alternatives, I might 243 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: not see he's in them. Additionally, so I'm like all right, 244 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 2: this is cool, but it's just checking off a list. 245 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: It's not an experience for. 246 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: The listeners out there. We need to give crucial minute 247 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: to eat this food. He's not slowing down, you know. 248 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: I was just thinking because the youtubok time to season it. 249 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 2: I was like, let me choose slower, let me get 250 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 2: all the flavorings, the full palette experience. And at times 251 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: I used to like, we ate that before bend because 252 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: you get sleepy if you eat a bunch of stuff like. 253 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: Oh man, But I don't feel like this is too heavy, 254 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: and I think you celebrating because is that the benefit 255 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: to you of being a plant based protein consumers that 256 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: you're not getting hit with all that fat. 257 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: My body takes a lot less time to digest what 258 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: I've eaten because grains and plant based products take a 259 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,599 Speaker 2: shorter time to digest the meat does. Right, It's just 260 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: how it happened. 261 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. What they say meat is in your 262 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: intestinal track for like how many days, some kind of 263 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: weird seven days or something. 264 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: Well, in a further we go into the future, it's 265 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: more alternatives. 266 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: This is true. I mean the future of food is 267 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 1: plant based. I think that that is an absolute fact, 268 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: I probably need to do better about eating more plant based, 269 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: and plant based doesn't mean you need to buy imitation meat. 270 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: I also feel like it's important for you to know 271 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 2: what's best for you, like your blood type, what you 272 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 2: might need, because being plant based can kind of change 273 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: certain levels of things for you, so you might have 274 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 2: to make up with them with like supplements or things 275 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 2: like that. 276 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: Flaky biscuit does not condone the medical advice being given 277 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: by doctor Crucial. 278 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: Especially when I'm mean Chloronis and I think Crucial is 279 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 2: trying to join the clean plate club.

Wow. And my sister, she just 326 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: took a break from touring because she's been performing for 327 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 2: it feels like nine to ten years.

It puts us all over the 335 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 2: place at all times. I remember growing up that sometimes 336 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 2: for New Years my dad would be performing at the 337 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 2: Brazilian Jazz Fest because that's the work of a traveling 338 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: musician of a NonStop industry. So that meal definitely put 339 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 2: me in a place where I remember being around my 340 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 2: family while we were all growing up together, before it 341 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: became you know, the constant Hey wow, working so hard. Damn. 342 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: Then that's the whole point of Flaky Biscus man, Like, 343 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: we're trying to look at food as a different vehicle. 344 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: R right, It's not just nourishing yourself. It's family, it's memories. 345 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: It's like it's like bringing you back into different segments 346 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: of your life. And that's the whole point of food, 347 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 1: is nostalgia. 348 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 2: That's crazy that you said a vehicle. I just said 349 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: that on a song to I said the music is 350 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: a vehicle. Don't forget the three and crew, Oh, because 351 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 2: we really use it to move ourselves. We use it 352 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 2: to move ideas, you know, how we house our progress. 353 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: It's almost like this dish is a hub for you. 354 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: Your sister's out, your brother's out, your dad, everyone's out 355 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: making these crazy moves. But when you have a meal 356 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: like this, it brings you back to being together with them. Yes, 357 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: and that happens to me sometimes. My family's the same 358 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: where like my brother's in the navy. You know, I'm 359 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: in New York to do it all this kind of stuff, 360 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: and my mom's still in Louisiana and my sisters are 361 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: working too. But I'll eat something, I'll see something food related, 362 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: I'll smell something. I literally got to FaceTime my brother 363 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: like immediately just to like tell him about what I 364 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: just smelled or tasted. 365 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: Broad this Your smell, your sense of taste, touch feelings 366 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 2: in general are extremely important, especially the ones we don't 367 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 2: have the power controlling. I can close my eyes and 368 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: put myself wherever I want to be. I can't turn 369 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 2: off my taste. Yeah, I can't turn off my smell. 370 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 2: So when it happens, it's immediately triggering. Yeah. So it's 371 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: like when that combination of food was close to my face, 372 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 2: I already knew where I was headed, Like I was 373 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 2: at the door and I was peaking in the liverpood. 374 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 2: As soon as I took that bite, I said down. 375 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: You know, after I choose and I digested, the fugitive 376 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 2: just started. 377 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: That's real. 378 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 2: I'm telling you. It's different. It's something in it. And 379 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: the same thing happens with music. When a certain beat 380 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 2: comes on, you just go to a place, you transport it. 381 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 2: Bro Yes, it's next dimensional. 382 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. Like I my focus is on food. 383 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: But I don't know how that feels as a musician 384 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: coming from a family of musicians to you know, like 385 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: if you get nostalgic over a beat that you hear. 386 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,719 Speaker 1: You know, if a car passes by and there's a 387 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: song that maybe for ten years you've been trying to 388 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: remember how it went or something, and then it's like 389 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: randomly hear it and it's like, oh snap. 390 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 2: Rot those songs that our moms used to clean the 391 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 2: house too, Yes, Like you know the ones you hear 392 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 2: and it's like, oh no, because I remember being in 393 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 2: the way, I remember not wanting to help you clean 394 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: up this house at all, because I'm time to play 395 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 2: video games, I'm trying to watch cartoons and you're locked 396 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 2: into yourself and this is your moment. Yeah, it's like 397 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: those songs. Hear those songs all the time. 398 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: But those songs, they're not as important until you're older. 399 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: Until you can fully appreciate them. These meals aren't because 400 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: it's like being in the water thinking about being a fish. 401 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 2: It's all around me, so while I'm in it, I 402 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 2: don't really know what it is. When I was eating 403 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 2: pizza for the longest, I just was like, Okay, I'm 404 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: just eating pizza because this was available. And then people 405 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 2: who would come to the studio and be like, yo, 406 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 2: you you know you always have pizza. You always have 407 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 2: the same kind of pizza from the same place, like, 408 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 2: and you really like it. And then they tried it 409 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 2: and it was like, oh, this ain't regular pizza, this 410 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: isn't Domino, No, this is from a Pizza Rea. This 411 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: is from somewhere that they care about a certain level 412 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: of quality. So it's like, Okay, you have an appreciation 413 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 2: for right, and it's something I love. I'd rather make 414 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 2: music about what I love than trying to I can't 415 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 2: dis pizza. 416 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: Not even I can diss pizza. And we all know 417 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: that I like to this certain types of food. Uh 418 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: moved on out. So you know how you've been inspired 419 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: by food, But like, when did you realize you had 420 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 1: creative talents? You know, from sitting down and eating this corn, 421 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: sausage and rice to going into the studio for the 422 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: first time or realizing like man, I also am in 423 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: a produce music. Do you think it's like in your blood? 424 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: I definitely think it's like a birthright blood family thing 425 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: because all of my entire family and my dad's how 426 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 2: mixed music, like him and his brothers and sisters were 427 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 2: in the community choir together. I think seven of the 428 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 2: twelve of them might be ordained ministers who also singing 429 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 2: their own choirs and have had music come out. My 430 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 2: dad's mom, I actually found a record she recorded with 431 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: her sisters that's an old gospel record. So it's always 432 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: been like music and family and southern spirituality together. So 433 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 2: what's the question again, I'm gonna tell you what just happened. 434 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 2: There's a piece of corn and it was seasoned, and 435 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: I was back in the living room and I was like, 436 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 2: this would be the part where I would miss the 437 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: movie to get. 438 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: A little more food. 439 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 3: And nobody's looking like, you know, you don't cut by 440 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 3: that pot with a spoon, and just yeah, let me 441 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 3: tell you remember, let me tell you right now, potter 442 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 3: rice in the kitchen is the most dangerous, dangerous, even 443 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 3: if it's just plain white rice, let alone, like a 444 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: John Balaars, I'm wondering how you went from oh, this 445 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 3: is a birthright, oh all my family music to really 446 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: step in the studio, really putting everything you've got into this. 447 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 2: So the path that I chose, I was the first 448 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 2: in my giant family of musicians to start rapping. So 449 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 2: it took a while for me to feel like that 450 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: was also a part of it, because in traditional music 451 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 2: sometimes hip hop being a new element isn't always embraced. 452 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: It was like in two thousand and six and seven, 453 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: that's when I started Outlander, which was a collective of 454 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 2: artists that was I went to school with. I started 455 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 2: recording him in my room at my parents' house, started 456 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: recording myself and just making I made an anthem for 457 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 2: the high school and we did all of that, and 458 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 2: that's when I was like, you know what, I love this, 459 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 2: this is what I'm about to do. I think it 460 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 2: became real the older I got, when I was able 461 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 2: to apreciate the fact that I was even exposed to 462 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 2: certain elements of music and production. And I think the 463 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 2: more serious I began to take it, the more serious 464 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 2: my family began to take me with it. Because I 465 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 2: would put myself in different places that you know, you 466 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 2: might not think a rapper would just do I. I 467 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 2: made a song about eating pizza, so like, yeah, the 468 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 2: first moment was high school when I knew it was up. Man, 469 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 2: I still can't tell. That's crazy. Like I remember being 470 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: in New York with you and I was like, wow, 471 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 2: this is all off of a pizza song. Yeah, we 472 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: did jazz Fest last year. I'm looking out at more 473 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 2: people at a festival screaming for entertainment from me and 474 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 2: my friends that I've never seen before. Just as far 475 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 2: as the eyes can see, all you see is people 476 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 2: with their hands in the air singing I'm my dad five, 477 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 2: And it's like, Okay, this is real, real because the 478 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 2: jazz Fest is the type of place once you put 479 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: yourself in there and around those people, they kind of 480 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: want to see more of you. Yea. So it's we 481 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 2: get to go back this year, but being saved. 482 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: But I'm you know, let me tell you some runnow. 483 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: Jazz Fest that's like I don't know, and food, going 484 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: to the James Beard Awards being nominated or something, right, 485 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: that's just like such a mark of respect, right, And. 486 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 2: You know what's crazy.
