44
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: So it's special what I'm saying because a year ago

45
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: Calacali drop and now we're here with God God did like,

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: did you have plans to return this fast? Well? I

47
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: always like, um, not just in music, but I always

48
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: like to be every year consistent. So on the music

49
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: side of things, I like to put an album out

50
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: every year, no later than like a year and a half.

51
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: The only time I ever took like two years a

52
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: separation because I was at that time I was moving,

53
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: uh situations, new partnership. Yeah, so you know sometimes business, yeah,

54
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: you gotta handle your thing and do it. But I

55
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: try to come out every year. And the reason why

56
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: I do it is because I love to do it.

57
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 1: I get the itch. I always get the itch to

58
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: work around November, my birthday time. The itches, you know,

59
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: an idea is to start coming out. So I'm like,

60
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: I'm back making another album. And then want to notice

61
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: you always do is you have like the big January

62
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: meeting with your team right January. Yeah, he set it

63
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: off with the goals what we're gonna do the whole year?

64
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: And the album is always involved. But what happens is, Um,

65
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: you know, I tell myself, when you consistent every year

66
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: with music, and you make great albums and break great anthems,

67
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: and you consistent every year, you're ahead of the game.

68
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: You're ahead of the time. So when people work with

69
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: you your time, this meaning as in like you take

70
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: too much of a break, you might get caught up

71
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: in that because this this world is moving too fast.

72
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: This is a fast world, like faster than ever because

73
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: of the phones. It's just so fast. So even music,

74
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: you get a Friday releases like so much ship come out.

75
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: So what are you going to do to breakthrough all that?

76
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,279
Speaker 1: The record? Got an album and the records gotta be incredible.

77
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: You gotta show the fans and the people around you

78
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: that you worked hard. You know, you gotta show them

79
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: ship Ain't just not everybody can do the one post.

80
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: Not everybody. Everybody got their own thing. My thing is

81
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: to show my fans experience to go so fucking hard.

82
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: And then at the same time, as um, I've been

83
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: saying this, later, I'm like, how can anybody outwork me

84
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: if they're not me? You know what I'm saying, Like,

85
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: you know, I've been blessed for my peer to say

86
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: you work hard. Like Pup called me the other day, like, yo,

87
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: you're a marketing genius, and this is that. I'm like

88
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: your pop, I'm just getting started and this is this

89
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: is the this Pup Daddy. You know, he's right. You know,

90
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: he's telling me, I have it. I'm not making this up.

91
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: I have the audio. I'm not no, no, I'm not

92
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: making it up. You ask him. So what I'm trying

93
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: to tell you is that he's telling me all the

94
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: stuff that I look up to him, you know, and

95
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: he's telling me all this stuff. And I'm like, you know,

96
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: besides music, people don't realize I'm a hustler. And I

97
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: want to make it cream today because I think people

98
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: got it, like you know, like not not not the

99
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: people in the fans, because the fans that I think

100
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: certain people don't get did I'm a hustler, you know

101
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Any any true hustle and see me work,

102
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: they salute and we salute each other. I'm a hustler

103
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: and meaning as in I was raised by my mother

104
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: and father worked seven days a week and took care

105
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: of me and my brother and sister fed us and

106
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: loved us and raised us right, but also worked seven

107
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: days a week and never took a day off. So

108
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: I gotta see them work all ships. So what I'm

109
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: trying to tell you is like, my my drive is

110
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: I'm a hustler. But how do you mean saying that drive?

111
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: And what is it mean when you look at and

112
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: say DJ Khaled, it's about to be a thirteenth studio

113
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: album crazy No, no, b Elliott thirteen. I let's keep

114
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: it real. That's a lot several who I was telling

115
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: another day, I was like, I was telling this one

116
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: person and I looked in that person's face and I said,

117
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: in this situation, the conversation I was having, I'm the unicorn.

118
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: No no, no, I'm not. You know, like you're certain

119
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: I'm not making this up. And I have to have

120
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: to always do this to myself because it keeps me

121
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: going and say, I can't believe we we accomplished to

122
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 1: go again. What I'm saying is like, it's very besides

123
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: Caliberian the music man and producing the DJ, don't forget,

124
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm also just a true fan. So if you think

125
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: about your favorite artists, they either do this and then

126
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: do that. Not wrong with that everybody got different journey.

127
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: Some do this and do that, and some do this

128
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: and it just don't stopped. And I've been blessed with

129
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: one of those guys that keep doing this because it

130
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: goes back to the consistency. You show people you work

131
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 1: hard and you great at what you do the same

132
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: way we look at Lebron James or Michael Jordan's or

133
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: your favorite athlete. You see them sucking in that gym,

134
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: working hard every single day and winning rings and and

135
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: winning Dames and and scoring the highest points even if

136
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: they don't win the championship or a playoff. That one

137
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: player you like, he the one, and what he keep

138
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: doing when he don't doing what he do Francis, look

00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: not stopping. He just getting started. God did me. This

142
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: is my new chapter of the next level of leveling up.

143
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: Is this why you said you made this album for

144
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: the believers in the nonbelievers? Yeah? Yeah, I mean when

145
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: I say that they don't believe in us um, God

146
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: did um. So I'm gonna tell you how the name

147
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: came about because it was around mark I did on

148
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: Instagram and it started organically. People was using that after

149
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: it resonated with him, because it resonates with me when

150
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: I said it. So I'm sitting right over there with chilling,

151
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: and it was like I was on the phone and

152
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: this person was telling me something and at the one point,

153
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I started looking at the phone, like, you know, you

154
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: can't leave what he's saying, right, So I'm looking at

155
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: the phone now, like and I'm looking around see if

156
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: anybody you know what I'm hearing. But there's nobody in

157
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: the room. So I'm looking at the phone now and

158
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: I said, Yo, let me call you back. I put

159
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: the phone down, and this is real talk. I had

160
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: my head down. I ain't gonna lie, I would like depressed.

161
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: Put my head down. I was like, man, they don't

162
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: believe in us. And immediately God lift my head up

163
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: and said, God did, I'm not making this up. You

164
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: might think it's funny, it's just real to me. Immediately

165
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: my head went up. God said, keep your head up,

166
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: keep your chest high, do not stop, keep going. And

167
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: you know that's my mentality. But I needed that too.

168
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: Phone call and then you go up, I said, God

169
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: did so immediately I started talking to myself like I

170
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: always do on the ground or you know whatever. It's

171
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: just you know, ship, I'm saying. On here, I'm talking

172
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: to myself too, you know, saying, you know, I don't

173
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: believe in us. God, dude, Like I'm not even realizing

174
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: I'm talking about me. Ship resonated with the whole world.

175
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: I started seeing everybody going, I'm like, oh my God,

176
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: look at God. And I'm like, this is my this

177
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: the name my album. God, did you know what I'm saying,

178
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: effort for the nonbelievers, because I don't have a problem

179
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: with the nonbelievers. I really don't, because it's always more

180
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: love than any other energy. And we don't realize that

181
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: because this world is crazy, you know, actually in the

182
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: music world, this world has just we've been through a lot,

183
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: and that's why, you know, when we made the record

184
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: Staying Alive, I felt like that name of that song

185
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 1: and just you know, you know, how how how infectious

186
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: that hope is. Think about all the ship we've been dodging,

187
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: we're going down, were dodging Corona. They're talking about this

188
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: new ship out here. You know what I'm saying, it's ship.

189
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: Just everything we gotta when your house, you're dodging everything.

190
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: It's real times. So this album is called God Did,

191
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: and I just felt like it's resonating with the people

192
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: that you and they connected with me and they know

193
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: what I'm doing. What I'm saying, well, that title resonates

194
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 1: to an amazing title track that's its own. Bring out

195
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: another trip, listen another trail, one of them them theories.

196
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: I'm saying. My thing is, you just played on some

197
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: of the album and again we'll get back to the

198
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: fact that you have already these anthems already done and

199
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: you're still cooking up to the last minute for last

200
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: minute man. But but focus on the title track because

201
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: me and beat I heard it and we are amazed.

202
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: I mean, my thing is, like you accomplish in that

203
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: one track, then most artists can accomplish in the whole album.

204
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: Like take us through that process of that song. Well,

205
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: that song. It's crazy because if you notice when I

206
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: dropped the album trailer, I don't know if you have

207
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: a chance to see the album trailer we had like

209
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: I mean in the trailer down trail, it was a

210
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: bunch of people in the trailer was Drake. Yeah, yeah,

211
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: it's just me and my kids. Like the theme music.

212
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: God did kid Friday. He's a writer and I think

213
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: he's also an artist. Bless up Friday and he you know,

214
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: saying my talk. They don't believe in this guy did

215
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: Bump Bump. What happened was when I dropped the tailor

216
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: the trailer and announced the name of the album, took off.

217
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: It took off, resonated again like people resonated with the title.

218
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, and I always was

219
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: gonna do it is make it into a song. You

220
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But I said I'm gonna make

221
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: that decision. After I announced my album title on the trailer,

222
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: I knew I was gonna do it not not not

223
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: the people that's on it back. I knew it's gonna

224
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: make a track out of it. So Boom that should

225
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: come out and people are loving them titled the energy

226
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: is good. Um, people get inspired by motivated by them

227
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: like bum. So I needed to feel its inspiration. So

228
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: I went in the studio the same guy with my

229
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: team and made the dopest track. You know what I'm saying.

230
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: I wasn't worried about who's gonna go on it. I

231
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: was just focused on because I was inspired. So that's

232
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: how all my albums are. I want to focus on

233
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: the production of music. If it's me and my team

234
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: making it, or it's me collaborating with other great producers.

235
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. The music gotta be right

236
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: for me to think of some ideas or or or

237
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: add some instruments or whatever. The music to be right.

238
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: So the music's right now, I'm like, not even set

239
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,960

240
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: and I knew this song was missing of the album.

241
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: Like certain songs make turn the album conversation different. When

242
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: you make the right song to present the album, it

243
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 1: makes you hear everything clearer because you're like, if he

247
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: or a sound out the gate, you know what I'm saying.

248
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: So far, once the music was right, I was like

471
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: I mean just you know behind the scenes. People don't

472
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: realize besides clearances and sample clearances and artists clearances and

473
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: you know, video shoots and you know, first of all,

474
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: the lesson working with all these great artists. You know,

475
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: these guys are busy shot the little baby man, you know,

478
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 1: two times, you know, for staying alive and and big time.

479
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,360
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Um, I mean that meaning

480
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: is and man with a blessing. Then I mean they

481
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: don't believe in us ones too, Like the people are

482
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: trying to like slow shut up. You know, if it's

483
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: a if it's a clearance or we bless everybody. You know,

484
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: it's not my first rodeo, so everybody showed up. But

485
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: also you know, it's like sample clearances that you you're

486
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: show in love with and you wanted to make happen.

487
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: You pray that it gets approved and not. You know,

488
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: you don't want to take not as an answer. That's

489
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: when I go in a different mode. You know what

490
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,760

00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: gotta go on that mode and we bless. Everything's going beautifully.

493
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: But when I meet, when I say that to the people,

494
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 1: people don't realize what happens behind the scene. They just

495
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: think we just put a record out, Like it's a

Speaker 1: that song came out the whole everything shifted because it

541
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: was a key line where he said, throne take it.

542
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 1: How did you feel when he sort of laid that

543
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: down like you, I mean that I felt great. It's

544
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: not wrong with saying that, because that's some ship I

545
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 1: said every day. The only difference is that we are

546
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: on the throne. What I'm saying, and you're gonna try

547
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: to take it, you know, saying. You know what I'm

576
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: even if I thought this needed, I like with Drake,

577
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,400

Speaker 1: it's a blessing. It same the same way. It's a blessing.

582
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,800

583
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: and not saying they're not, but you know he deserves

584
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: that the same way all the other goats. You not

587
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,120

711
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: you'll make both statements and sometimes you may get a

712
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 1: little backlash. You'll say, this is the hook of the

713

718
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 1: to right. So I'm trying to tell you when Drake

719
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: did it. He's such a gene. He found a way

720
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: to take that staying alive concept and make it in

721
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: an infectious, melodic way. He said, try me a hundred times,

722
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 1: wanted me to live, wanted me to cry, wanted me

723
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 1: to stay in live. I don't know about you. It's incredible.

724
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 1: Of course it's one of the biggest hooks because everybody's

725
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: singing it. Elliott, listen, you can love me, hate me

726
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 1: whatever one thing you can't. Um, you're gonna have to

727
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: respect everybody's singing the ship. It sain't nothing news like

Speaker 1: whole world sings like we are the world staying in live.

731
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: You would think we're the group in sync. It was

732
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: a hard time. Getting the clearance from the BGS was um,

733
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: it was shout out to the BGS. What I'm saying.

734
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: They cleared it. Um, it was a blessing. Um, you

735
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: know for them to clear it. It's an interpretation, you

736

738
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,560

754
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: so proud of it, and you know, and let's go

755
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: back to my roots or when I used to be

756
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: uh you know, in the sound gang, sound like killing

757
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: sound system. And so I still cut dub and Sean

758
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: was at my crib and like, y'all want you to

759
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: cut um bad boys? So I would you already embaringing

760
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: I already had them do it, right, I had them

761
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 1: do it. I knew you know, Shane, I knew you know,

762
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: get him, you know, and it's so crazy to cut it.

763
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: And I heard that shine voice which we all love.

764
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 1: We missed, and I remember when he first came home,

765
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: he didn't have that voice right, and he explained to

766
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: me why that voice wasn't there. I let him explain it,

767
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: but he explained it to me, and I looked at

768
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 1: him like, damn, yeah, I understand. And then how is

769
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: here now? And beautiful that you got it right? So

770
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 1: it's crazy. And then look at his journey. I can't

771
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: wait to see, uh, like a documentary or movie on

772
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: shine talk about your journey? Though, Kelly, we all know

773
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 1: Terror Square. He started ninety nine gams like, but what

774
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 1: is it being beginning for you? I read somewhere like

775
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: was it Peter Piper run DMC? That was like your drink? Yeah,

776
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: Peter Piper is a perfect record. That explained it for

777
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: me because it's one of my favorite records to cut up,

778
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: scratch up, but also my first official hip hop concert

779
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 1: ever been to in the arena. I forgot a tour

780
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,320
Speaker 1: was a run DMCBC Boys, L m J. It was

781
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 1: like a big tour. You know what I'm saying, you know,

782
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: stay the boom box, the whole ship. What city did

783
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 1: you see that? North Carolina? And I never forget what

784
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying watching that show and I was just at

785
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 1: I was probably like I don't know the exact age,

786
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: but I had to be between ten and twelve, you

787
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Or maybe even I don't know,

788
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: but I remember. And I started collecting buying at that time. Um,

789
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: and I was the kid in the crew that I

790
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: would make takes for us off a boom box, you know, tape,

791
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: and I was record like a pause button and make tapes,

792
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And eventually I got my first turn table,

793
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 1: you know I'm saying. Then my my, my love for

794
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: the music spot. My room was all records and cassette tapes,

795
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 1: and I started buying like speakers and making my own,

796
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: like this car speakers back in the days you just

797
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: have car speakers. I would take that and I'd be

798
00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: my my, my, my DJ equipment, you know, wired up

799
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 1: something like a box, homemade box with a servant Sherwin

800
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: Vegas speaker and that, you know what I'm saying. Like,

801
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: So now I'm i'm I'm, I'm I'm starting to DJ.

802
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: And while I'm starting to DJ, I immediately fell in

803
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 1: love to make beats. So I end up buying like

804
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: an MPC SP twelve hundred and then and back in

805
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: those days we said were a lot. So you know,

806
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: I was, you know, producers like Diamond D and Pete,

807
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, Q Chip and you know what I'm saying,

808

Speaker 1: you know always incredible Um and a lot of those

811
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: were DJ producers too. So I'm like puff Daddy, I'm

812
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 1: looking at everybody like, man, it's what I want to do.

813
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 1: So I'm inspired of making beats and and I fell

814
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 1: in love with DJ and and I just knew from

815
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,719

816
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: this is what I want to do forever. It gives

817
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 1: me a feeling that I could be in my boxes

818
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,480

Speaker 1: guy is unbelievable. Like you know what I'm saying. It's

935
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 1: like the answer your question, when is it time for

936
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,800
Speaker 1: to be on a Callet album? Man? You gotta I

937
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 1: mean it with all respect. You gotta put in that

938
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: word the same way I put in that word. You

939
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And if you put in that word,

940
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna expect you to be on the album. And

941
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: there's people haven't been on my album that deserve to

942
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 1: be on my album. I just the way I make records,

943
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: it's just a it's just I just go with the

944
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 1: vibe and the way I want to do. It's not

945
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 1: like I left somebody Else's never that. It's just about

946
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 1: at that time, this is what was being made. And

947
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:38,800
Speaker 1: I don't want to fight that feeling or force something

948
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,959
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna make another one. You know what I'm saying.

949
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 1: Not tell all the artists I haven't worked with. We're gonna,

950
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: you know, God will will eventually gonna work because we're

00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,879
Speaker 1: tell him about another artist we need to have on here.

956
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,720
Speaker 1: It's Scissor. You need to talk about Sissors so special,

957
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: So siss are on my album. Um, this is the

958
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 1: second second time I got a chance to work with her,

959
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,759
Speaker 1: and that's my sis. I just love talking to her

960
00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 1: on the phone. In her text, she's so pure, like

961
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 1: it's just like when you make the record with her,

962
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 1: it's like Sissor knows when I say this is with

963
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,320
Speaker 1: all love, like I get. I started breaking out a

964
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 1: sweat and everything because it's like she's so pure. No,

965
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 1: it's so pure to the point like yos, you know

966
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 1: what I mean. And then and I know she don't

967
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 1: really do many features, and we've been waiting for her

968
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 1: album for a long time too, and I keep telling

969
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: her she's so amazing. She had an album. Her debut

970
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 1: album is a fucking masterpiece and it's it's a classic.

971
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: And I'm like, man, and we love her so much.

972
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 1: He's so talented. So when I get a chance to

973
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: get a record with her before she puts her new

974
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,919
Speaker 1: album out, it's a truly blessing, you know what I'm saying.

975
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 1: Because I don't know nobody that's not a fan of

976
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 1: sism because I'm a fan. Everybody loves sissm Um. But

977
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 1: she's also spiritual, she's special um, and she's a beautiful

978
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 1: person with a beautiful soul. And she blessed me unbelievable

979
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 1: with my new record. And we're also fans of Jada Kiss.

980
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: He played us uh cut with them you have the

981
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 1: versus the verses, So I took the snippet of when

982
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:29,320
Speaker 1: you know everybody got you know when he was on

983
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 1: versus that one moment is a moment forever. It's a

984
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: moment in time, like and I know it probably hits

985
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: you the way it hit me when that happened. It

986
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: was a good feeling at the time. I get some

987
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,320
Speaker 1: real hip hop ship and you're like, that's dope, and

988
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 1: that's I got kiss. You know what I'm saying that,

989
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 1: you know, as kids doing that ship. So it was

990
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: a feeling and you know, so I wanted to put

991
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 1: that um because the record I got with him, he

992
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: just goes so many bars talking about New York. It's

993
00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:01,479
Speaker 1: only right because he's from New York. Um, he loved

994
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: New York and he raised the flag. Unbelievable. But he

995
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: just came off the stage from versus talking that ship.

996
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 1: I am New York and this and now I don't

997
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 1: live here. I don't live there. I live in So

998
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 1: I'm going crazy. So we made a record that sampled

999
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 1: the old James Brown, you know what I'm saying, and

1000
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 1: he went crazy. You know that Jada kiss is one

1001
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: of my favorites. So you know what I'm saying on

1002
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 1: my albums. If you notice every album I ever made,

1003
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 1: you notice that always got something from the era of

1004
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: you know, our era you know I'm talking about, but

1005
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: as the foundation. But at the same time as these

1006
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: guys are times Jada Kisses times you can make a

1007
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 1: record to night tomorrow, don't matter what. He's one of

1008
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 1: the greats, and he gave me something special. Has there

1009
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,400
Speaker 1: ever been a moment where you've received the vocals and

1010
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,320
Speaker 1: you might be how to send them back like you

1011
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,320
Speaker 1: just weren't fans of the vocals um I have. But

1012
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 1: after I've been in the studio, if I see something

1013
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:58,760
Speaker 1: that's not going the right to I try to immediately

1014
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 1: stop it. If they accept my my critique and let

1015
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:08,319
Speaker 1: me produce um and usually they do what I'm saying

1016
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:12,959
Speaker 1: and I'll explained Tom why you know what I'm saying

1017
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 1: and hopefully and usually you know, that's part of collaborating,

1018
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,760
Speaker 1: being in the room together. But then there's also times

1019
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: where I'm not might not be sure that I learned something.

1020
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,720
Speaker 1: You know, KNA I got we know it all, especially

1021
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 1: with the new generation. You gotta respect the new generation.

1022
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: They come with a new sound. They might teach you

1023
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 1: something and they do. He's new generation. They've got different pockets.

1024
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,840
Speaker 1: You know, they go to the pocket that's like like

1025
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,279
Speaker 1: I've done before, Like yeah, ship that you like? Is

1026
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:45,759
Speaker 1: this real? Like you know the pockets they being like

1027
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: when a little baby did every chance I get you

1028
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:51,320
Speaker 1: know what I said when I said keep going, what

1029
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,479
Speaker 1: else I'm gonna say that he left a little piece

1030
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: of the beat breathe I was like natural, just like

1031
00:53:56,040 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 1: keep going like this sh sounds so unbelievable. So you know,

1032
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: I think the most important thing when you make a

1033
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 1: record is the energy, and everybody know what we need

1034
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: to do is we gotta go here with it, not

1035
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 1: just coming here and say we made a record. And

1036
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 1: that I think when people know on a CAVT album,

1037
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:19,359
Speaker 1: that's what we do. We go here. You're saying absolutely

1038
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: why I feel like you're like one of the last

1039
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: prominitive DJs in the game, Like why hasn't there been

1040
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,399
Speaker 1: a guy to emerge? I guess in in the wake

1041
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 1: of your success. I mean, beat I appreciate because that

1042
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:32,520
Speaker 1: means a lot of me because the thing is, like,

1043
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: I'm one of the greats. I don't know if I

1044
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 1: said on this interview, don't know if I said on

1045
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: Instagram or a post um, but I always respect the

1046
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 1: ones before me, and I'm the student what I'm saying.

1047
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:49,320
Speaker 1: But of was it decades in the last three decades,

1048
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,920
Speaker 1: one of the greats, you know what I'm saying, Like

1049
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 1: the same way I looked at pub Daddy when I

1050
00:54:56,239 --> 00:55:00,360
Speaker 1: was coming up, it's one of the greats. Don't be

1051
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,279
Speaker 1: scared to say Cat is one of the great because

1052
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 1: it's the truth. You know, what I'm saying. I got

1053
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: no problem saying that without blinking my eye all, Like

1054

Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I'm saying like it's facts.

1055
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: But I just feel like in today's world, we need

1056
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,279
Speaker 1: to show more love to each other. But does that

1057
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 1: feel you do you feel like you still have to

1058
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 1: silence some more nonbelievers? Is that motivation? We all use

1059
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 1: that for motivation, even when it's not there. We tell

1060
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 1: ourselves there it's just something. It's like something in our

1061
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 1: head that we got to always do. But Um, to

1063
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: the the bullshit that's distortion away from me. I don't

1064
