Your first plaque was with Tiger first 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:15.320 platinum plaque. Yeah, I produced four records on the legendary 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.640 Well on his last album he dropped and that was 0:06:17.720 --> 0:06:20.000 the album. Was that the that's the one we had 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:22.880 taste on it? Oh yeah, I mean yeah, that's the one. Yeah, 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:24.760 thank god I was a part of that. So yeah, 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.880 I went that was like come back album. Platinum. That 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.880 was the comeback album right there. Yeah, we thought Tiger 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.640 was dead. They said nope, peers didn't. We actually got 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:38.200 some come actually for his next ship. So Tiger's a beast. Yeah, 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:40.440 you know he always come with that one or two. 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.080 That's how you know, don't get it. You can't give 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:45.120 this ship up, you can, you can't give up. I 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:47.040 always tell everybody's always a hit away. We were just 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.120 talking about riche on m Kwan, right. Rich On m 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.440 Kwan was like that motherfucker. He got into a shitty 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:55.440 label situation. His label wasn't letting him release music and 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.640 then like I don't know, just just shi it was. 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.720 It just ain't what it was, but he had it though, 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:04.120 and he could get it back. He still is one 0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:07.480 record away. Like think about it. T Pain last year 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:09.760 had the top twenty or top ten song of radio. 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.480 He really did this song Withny that was his record. Yeah, 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:17.960 he sampled himself that I need to sample walk through then. 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.760 So it's like you're just one record away, man, everyone's 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:26.400 always one record away. John was one record away about that. 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:32.119 He came all the way back. You ain't lying making 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.480 cloud he did. He didn't come all the way back, 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.920 but he came back back yet. But I mean, yeah, 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.360 you can't. You can't really count people out because you 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:44.960 never know. Bouck. I really, I think it's a consistency. 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:47.720 Like if you keep dropping dropping, they keep hearing you eventually. 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:50.800 That's what honestly, Loki, That's what Tiger was doing. He 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.480 just kept dropping ship and then something especially caught on, 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.320 Like you know, there's a lot of that ship, wasn't it? 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:57.160 You know what I'm saying. But it's hard to beat 0:07:57.200 --> 0:08:00.200 the motherfucker that don't quit, man. That's the truth. That 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.880 the truth. The one that don't quit always reaped through 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:06.880 the rewards. Though, who probably isn't one record away? Is 0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:10.400 there anybody that's just not going to be able to 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:12.840 come back, even with the fire record. I feel it 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:16.960 could be anybody, anybody, honestly, especially with like TikTok and 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:19.960 like like even if it's funny, you know, like you know, 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.120 like ships, they got a good beat and the hard hook. 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.760 Anybody can come back.

So you know, we're getting 0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:34.599 busy with the flood, you know what I mean, just 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:39.040 to click and you know, we just opening doors for 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:43.640 the I feel like the independent, the independent error, the 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:48.839 independent market for this streaming era is untouched, untapped and 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:53.280 stream Yeah. Yeah, I love the streaming. So it's untapped 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.920 and untouched in LA and it's kind of like still 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:57.839 foreign to a lot of people, you know what I mean. 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.520 So what we're doing is bring in that to the 0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.319 forefront and letting motherfuckers know, like, if you got some 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:08.480 good you need to O D go in. Yeah, I 0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:11.960 gotta ask you because problems Like what was like a moment, 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.640 a big moment for the city. Man, Like that was 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.839 like that was fucking crazy. I just remember that record 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.720 and like how it cut through just I was living 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:25.079 in no I was living in Phoenix at the time, 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:29.319 but that song was such a that song changed a 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.800 lot of people's lives. Yes, how did it, Like, like 0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:35.559 tell me about that song. It just that, you know, 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.360 I love that that run Problem was on the Mollywood Runs, 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:44.319 Like I mean, you know, I feel like he had 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:46.400 it for like, you know, cool three years. I feel 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:48.640 like like when I thought of LA I thought a problem, 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:50.439 you know what I'm saying. And he's still doing this 0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:54.440 thing obviously, but that specific record changed a lot. Yeah. 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:58.360 So with that record, like that was the last record 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:01.959 that we did on you know that that project and 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:07.760 Problem produces hisself and you know, he had the ideal 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:10.880 for it and everything, and you know, he just brought 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.120 it to me and I just kind of put my 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:17.199 my mix on it and you know, my drums and 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:20.080 and just turned it around like you know, changed the 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:24.000 main lead and you know it just went crazy. Yeah. 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:26.760 That for a while, you guys had you guys had 0:14:26.800 --> 0:14:28.440 the same manager, so he just kind of had the 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:30.440 pick of the litter of the League of Stars beats 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.640 for a while there. Yeah, But that was like at 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.480 that that was early right, Yeah, at that point, so 0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:37.640 we was coming out of the Jerk era, and you know, 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.320 like I had a bunch of records in the Jerk era. 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:43.720 I was like popping, you know, and then it died out, 0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:46.440 which records is you have, so like from the Jerk 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.200 era of course tied me down. I did Shia Model 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:52.880 for YG and just a bunch of like just random 0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:56.560 stuff like like everybody that was pretty much popping, and 0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:00.520 like it started to die out. My name started to 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:02.560 you know, kind of fizzle out with it as well, 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.200 and I started seeing like the pre De Nice, which 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.720 who are my homies you know from way back, they 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:10.880 were starting to come up. So you know, like I 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:14.400 joined Legue Stars and like that was like really my 0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:18.000 turnaround record because I was just trying to put something out, 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:22.440 you know, I didn't have no records out that was tring. Yeah, 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:24.760 so at that time, that just that just kind of 0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:27.120 turned everything around for me and you know like just 0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:31.480 re you know, introducing myself back into the scene, you know, 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.320 from going from that fad to you know like, hey, 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.280 I just saw did the New Boys just release a 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:41.400 new Jerking song? Nah? It just went well, I don't 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:44.240 know if they released. I know that it went ReViral, 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:47.360 but I heard someone yesterday told me it's randomly because 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:50.440 I was just talking about the New Boys yesterday, someone 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:52.600 was like, yeah, they just put a new version. Oh, 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:55.920 I mean yeah, they wouldn't be surprised. Yeah, I wouldn't 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.280 be surprised. I mean it's going up, so it'd be 0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.840 small take advantage, take advo that ship time me down. Wow, 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:06.640 I was a joint manah what was their names? Legacy 0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:11.240 and ben J. Yeah. I was doing so much illegal 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:14.640 shipping around that time. Man ended up getting tied down 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:22.080 by the state of Calier literally literally littleco La County 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.840 over Now, So when you guys are working on G ship, 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.000 like what is the you know, do you guys collaborate 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.520 on stuff like for sure? Yeah, Like we we've been 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:37.760 collaborating for like almost ten years now, right, so you 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:40.520 know with G stuff, like we both bring a certain 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.320 sound to G and then you know, now we're just 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:47.880 putting it together and kind of like adding our flavors together. 0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:49.880 So like if you you heard the song, the interview 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:52.320 produced the first half of the song, I produced the 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:56.160 second half of Oh Dope. See. I like the cohesive, 0:16:56.760 --> 0:16:58.600 Like that's why I love what hip boys doing with 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.080 like Benny the butcher Nas. It's like we were just 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:04.480 talking about that, just talking about it's very cohesive. You know, 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.000 Jam sport J's in there too doing this thing. But 0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:10.159 like just it's just I feel like right now in 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:12.240 hip hop, like you know, Freddie Gibbs, just the whole 0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:17.199 Alfredo got nominated for a Grammy fully produced by alchemists, 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:21.760 but just that cohesive like sound for a project to 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.680 me is so like I think it's like clutch. Yeah, 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:27.359 for a producer, I think that's important too though, like 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:31.879 because like we get so trapped in to chasing placements 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.320 and you know, just trying to work with like the 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:36.800 artists that's hot when you and you will get a 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.240 hot record and the artists won't even work with you 0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:41.879 after that. So it's like it's kind of cool to have, 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.520 you know, like ownership you know, and just build you know, 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:48.240 And I think a lot of producers are are kind 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:51.200 of like looking past that. It's another way to make money, 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:54.760 build your catalog and really build your legacy too. Yeah, 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:57.440 well talk to me about tags because you I don't 0:17:57.440 --> 0:18:01.200 even what's your tag? God damn it, depreek, goddamnit dupree. 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:06.040 I know, sorry, but like the tag shit is so important, 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:07.520 and like I feel like there was a lot of 0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:09.840 producers hit boys. One of them I had a conversation 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:11.639 with him or he was like man for the forever, 0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:15.359 I would never use with tag. And meanwhile, you know, 0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:18.800 some of my peers would be fucking so brandable because 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:21.560 their tag was so you know. And so now hit 0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:23.359 Boy's got a fucking tag on every He's got like 0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:26.080 three different ones he uses. But like it's so important. 0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:28.560 How important is like the tag for a producer, because 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:31.320 I do feel like there were there's a lot of 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:33.840 producers who don't use tag still, but like for like 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:37.200 branding and just for like recognition, Like if someone says, 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:41.760 like you're Jnari and if they've heard a certain they're like, oh, yeah, shit, 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.040 I know your ship, you know what I mean? Like, 0:18:43.080 --> 0:18:45.960 how important is the tag? Especially in the beginning, it's 0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:50.240 like detrimental because that's I mean, that's that's you, that's 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:52.920 your stamp, that's your name, you know, Like that's how 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:56.639 people can you know, like I ain't never seen you, 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.800 I ain't never heard of you, but you know I 0:18:58.920 --> 0:19:01.280 heard that tag, you know. So it's important to have 0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:03.399 a tag and to have a catchy one at that, 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.720 you know what I'm saying. Like, I think it's very 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:10.040 important though in the in the beginning for show these 0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:14.800 fucking gummies as strong as how many did you did 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:19.040 you just see one? Two? You had another one? You 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:22.080 had three of them. Yeah, it's not a micro dose anymore. 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:27.080 Look at the back of the back, but is a bit. 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:30.520 You're currently in the touch of reality phase. If you 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.119 look at the back of the tops back, this is 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:36.840 touch of reality. Which one we enter you guys are 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:39.640 in the morning micro doves face, you guys had one. 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:45.879 Definitely somewhere perfect. I'm definitely feeling realistic right now. You 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:47.960 know what I'm saying. I feel good though I'm saying. 0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:59.639 But yeah, hey, look, oh my god, no, look when 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.000 he was the tags, I wanted to say something about 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.280 producers with the tags, right, Yeah, a lot of niggas 0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:08.920 don't even worry about the beat and just they tag 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:11.680 be more important than the beat. Like niggas be having 0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:16.800 these crappy as beats. True, but I think like with them, 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:18.639 I don't really want to speak for them, but like 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:20.879 just with it. Like a lot of good producers, like 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.800 I think that's the last thing I watch. Motherfuckers just 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.359 put so much emphasis on the tag instead of making 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:30.040 sure that a nigga could rap on this beat and 0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:33.000 make a dope song. It's like a lot of producers 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:36.320 just me speaking from an artist's standpoint. A lot of 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.800 producers or beat makers, they make beats that's just the groove, 0:20:41.560 --> 0:20:43.440 you know what I'm saying. It's a banging ass beat, 0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:45.680 but it's like, damn where I rap at, you know 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:48.760 what I'm saying. So it's like it's just like a 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:52.840 special art to having some shit that that knock and 0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:55.720 somewhere where you could rap at. That's why I think 0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:58.200 a lot of like these simple beats that niggas shit on. 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:02.120 They go because it's somewhere for the artist to wrap 0:21:02.240 --> 0:21:05.000 on this something. It getting busy and they go. You 0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.760 know what I mean. A lot of people do great music, 0:21:07.880 --> 0:21:13.920 but it's like the cohesiveness of the vocals and then hey, 0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:16.280 we know, we gotta stop the podcast real quick.
