Yeah, and I feel like you could 74 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: only get that from one place. Pick me to with 75 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: that where the singing began. 76 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 2: I think the singing, like a lot of people don't know. 77 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: My dad was a pastor right he started. He had 78 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: a church in Columbus, Georgia. My parents, we're all from 79 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: Mississippi originally, but we moved to Atlanta when I was 80 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 2: a kid. And I'm glad they moved to Atlanta because 81 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 2: I would have been working in the chicken coop right 82 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 2: now had they not moved to Atlanta. As a kid, 83 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 2: my dad had a church in Columbus, Georgia, so on 84 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: weekends we would go down to you know, he had 85 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: his parsonage in Columbus, so he would be down there 86 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: right and sermons and stuff like that. And so I 87 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 2: was singing the church, and you know, that's kind of 88 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 2: where I learned to sing. And I also remember I 89 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 2: learned how to sing because I wanted to play drums 90 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 2: in elementary school. My dad was like, Nah, here goes 91 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: this trumpet. So he made me play the trumpet. And 92 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 2: when I started playing the trumpet, I started hearing notes. 93 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 2: I started learning how to read music a little bit. 94 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 2: I can't really read no more, but I know the 95 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: notes face and every good boy does fine and all 96 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 2: that good stuff. So I learned how to play. I 97 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 2: play keys. I'm not as good as you, but you 98 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 2: know I'm working. 99 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm in there. 100 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: And so I learned how to play the trumpet from 101 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 2: the trumpet, you know. The band teachers always took a 102 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 2: liking to me. So I was like first chair. Anybody 103 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 2: that knows about choir or bands, you know there's first, second, 104 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: third chair. And so I was always like, even if 105 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: I wasn't the first chair and it was somebody better, 106 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: the teacher would always put me in that position. So 107 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 2: they kind of saw something in me that I really 108 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: didn't see it in myself. And you know, I think 109 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: that that's where, you know, I started to learn to 110 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 2: know notes. And then from there we would sing on 111 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 2: the back of the school bus. Like I remember, I 112 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: went to Sudden Middle School here in Atlanta, Georgia, and 113 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 2: every morning it was a party on the bus. Like 114 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 2: one dude would come on the bus. His mama make 115 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 2: chicken wings. So on the morning of the bus when 116 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 2: we going to school, he's selling twenty five cent wings. 117 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: We on the bus on the back singing. First we 118 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 2: was rapping. We used to rap it first, and then 119 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 2: we started singing. And this was around that time like 120 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: Jo Tosy and Boys to Men. So everybody was like, oh, 121 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: we got a sing so we started. You know, I 122 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: could sing a little bit, so I started singing. Then 123 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,799 Speaker 2: we started harmonizing, and then it was just like wow. 124 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: All the girls will be around. So it was like 125 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: oh yeah, oh yeah with it. Yeah yeah. 126 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: So every morning on the bus going to school, it 127 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 2: was a party. Every morning Nigga had wings. We had 128 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 2: the wings in the morning. Yeah, it was crazy. Don't 129 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: forget about. We also had the girl used to bring 130 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: the kool aid, now the kool aid. 131 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: Back then they had a kool Aid in there. 132 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: They put the sugar in there with the kool aid, 133 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 2: mix it up and she said the kool aid bags too. 134 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: Then somebody else had the candy kids. This is all 135 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: on the bus. This is a whole movie going to school. 136 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: We loved the bus. The bus was popping. So if 137 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 2: it's six it's like the sixth gradest in the front, 138 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: seventh in the middle, eighth in the back. But we 139 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: were so popping in sixth grade. Eighth grade was like, 140 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 2: y'all come on back here. 141 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: Respect the upper class by the upper class. 142 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: And I remember I got I got all the way respected. 143 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: One day they were like, little Bobby come back here. 144 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: But little Bobby come back here. I was like, oh man, 145 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: the niggas gave me a wedgie. But after that I 146 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 2: was the man.

So once then once that happened, 150 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: I started my own little crew. 151 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: We was called the gig. 152 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 2: We was called We used to wear the GAP shirts 153 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: and that stand for Georgia Association of Players.

Then they took 207 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: us eighth grade. This is eighth grade. This is my 208 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 2: first deal. 209 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: Everybody's in eighth grade. We was all in eighth grade. 210 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 2: One guy was in he's like two years younger than us, 211 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 2: so he even younger. He was younger than us, that's 212 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: Brandon and then probably like two years younger. So we 213 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: had a tutor and all of this stuff, and so 214 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 2: eighth grade we got the deal. Sylvia signed us and 215 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: I remember, and then during that time we were working 216 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: with Organized Noise. Organized Noise was going crazy time. You know, 217 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 2: they had outcast, they had Waterfalls was going at this time. 218 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: So Sylvia was like, I want a song that's like waterfalls. 219 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 2: So we was like, we was young, so we didn't 220 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: really understand. But we ended up going with Organized Noise 221 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 2: and we created Black Bear Molasses, which was a big song, 222 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 2: especially in the South. You know, Actually, you know t 223 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: I had in this movie. I found out when we 224 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: watched the Tupac movie. It was the song he was 225 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 2: listening to right before he died. Wow, And so that 226 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: was crazy. I was like, wow, man, Tupac was listening 227 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 2: to my song right before he died. So we did 228 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: that record, and we did a dope album. We recorded 229 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: with Tricky Stewart and Organized Noise pretty much produced the 230 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: whole project. And then after that project happened, you know, 231 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 2: it didn't do what they thought it was gonna. 232 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: Do, so Why do you think it didn't pan out? 233 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 3: When you look back at it now, you know, you know, 234 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 3: years later, more tenured in the industry, understanding how this 235 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 3: shit really works when you look back at it now. 236 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 3: And obviously I was thirteen, fourteen, eight, feighteen years or whatever. Yeah, 237 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 3: by the time y'all come out, Why do you think 238 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 3: now when you look back on it, like this is 239 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 3: probably why that didn't work the way? 240 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: Well, we were too We were too young. 241 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: First of all, the record was an amazing song, but 242 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: it wasn't really for us. 243 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: It was very serious. 244 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 2: It was very serious, and we were teenagers. We were 245 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: just wanting to have fun, and we had those type 246 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 2: of songs that probably should have been the first single 247 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: that would have introduced us as as kids. 248 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're kids. 249 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 2: And so when you in hindsight, when you look at it, 250 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 2: it's like, man, we were too young talking about We 251 00:12:58,679 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 2: didn't really even know. 252 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: We had to ask them what we're talking about? You 253 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? 254 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: What are we talking about here? And it was like, 255 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: really it was, you know, heartache and pain. Don't give up. 256 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 2: It was a great message. Great that niggas looking sad exactly, 257 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 2: we shouldn't have been doing that. 258 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: We had. 259 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 2: If you go back and listen to the Mister album, 260 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: the album was amazing, see low Green wrote on it 261 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 2: organized noise. We had like out care, we had like 262 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: it was a dope overall project that we had some 263 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 2: kid a friendly song, teen friendly songs that should have 264 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 2: been the single. But because Waterfalls were so big, Sylvia 265 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: wanted that. You know, the labels don't get there, label 266 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 2: don't care when something is the wave. Yeah they're gonna 267 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: ride that way. 268 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: We need to get that. We need that again. 269 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: But really that should have been for like one person, 270 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 2: a twenty five year old single male artists. So we 271 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: did the record and it was just it was too 272 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: it was too grown. So that's what happened with that, 273 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 2: and then I to that by this time the group 274 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: broke up much not after that we did a second album. Oh, 275 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: we did a second album. We started on the second album. 276 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 2: This is when I met Tim and Bob.

So 445 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 2: I remember being so this is how I picked Clark. 446 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 2: I had Mars Brown, then I had Clark, and then 447 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 2: I was driving. I was over by greenbri which on 448 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: the West Side because that where I'm from. From the 449 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 2: west side, I seen a Volvo. You know how people 450 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 2: got their college sticker in the back window. I seen 451 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: the Volvo. They had Mars Brown in there. Then I 452 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,239 Speaker 2: seen like a bend it had Clark Atlanta University in 453 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 2: the window. I said, you know what, I think I 454 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 2: got a better shot in here. So I think I 455 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,719 Speaker 2: made the best choice, you know what I'm saying. And 456 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 2: so I had I had the music scholarship to go 457 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 2: to Clark. So mind you, when I go to Clark, 458 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: I'm sitting in chorus class. Now, Now, studying music is hard. 459 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 2: It's not it's not like just singing. They put math 460 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: and all kind of like things that you just like, 461 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 2: this ain't really, you know. So I ended up having 462 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: about a one point eight shit GPA first year. Because 463 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 2: mind you, I'm in a class and there's thirty chicks 464 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: in there, and I could sing. It's probably two or 465 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 2: three dudes in there, and they don't like the chicks. 466 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 2: So I'm like the only one in there, they all 467 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 2: grab it. So between all of that and then going 468 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 2: to the studio every night, it was just a lot. 469 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
