Speaker 1: that record coming. That's co produced with my boy Extendo
Speaker 1: and Mike Crook Shot I e we, I just saw
Speaker 1: two you posted. Your first plaque was with Tiger first
Speaker 1: platinum plaque. Yeah, I produced four records on the legendary
Speaker 1: Well on his last album he dropped and that was
Speaker 1: the album. Was that the that's the one we had
Speaker 1: taste on it? Oh yeah, I mean yeah, that's the one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank god I was a part of that. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I went that was like come back album. Platinum. That
Speaker 1: was the comeback album right there. Yeah, we thought Tiger
Speaker 1: was dead. They said nope, peers didn't. We actually got
Speaker 1: some come actually for his next ship. So Tiger's a beast. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know he always come with that one or two.
Speaker 1: That's how you know, don't get it. You can't give
Speaker 1: this ship up, you can, you can't give up. I
Speaker 1: always tell everybody's always a hit away. We were just
Speaker 1: talking about riche on m Kwan, right. Rich On m
Speaker 1: Kwan was like that motherfucker. He got into a shitty
Speaker 1: label situation. His label wasn't letting him release music and
Speaker 1: then like I don't know, just just shi it was.
Speaker 1: It just ain't what it was, but he had it though,
Speaker 1: and he could get it back. He still is one
Speaker 1: record away. Like think about it. T Pain last year
Speaker 1: had the top twenty or top ten song of radio.
Speaker 1: He really did this song Withny that was his record. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he sampled himself that I need to sample walk through then.
Speaker 1: So it's like you're just one record away, man, everyone's
Speaker 1: always one record away. John was one record away about that.
Speaker 1: He came all the way back. You ain't lying making
Speaker 1: cloud he did. He didn't come all the way back,
Speaker 1: but he came back back yet. But I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't really count people out because you
Speaker 1: never know. Bouck. I really, I think it's a consistency.
Speaker 1: Like if you keep dropping dropping, they keep hearing you eventually.
Speaker 1: That's what honestly, Loki, That's what Tiger was doing. He
Speaker 1: just kept dropping ship and then something especially caught on,
Speaker 1: Like you know, there's a lot of that ship, wasn't it?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But it's hard to beat
Speaker 1: the motherfucker that don't quit, man. That's the truth. That
Speaker 1: the truth. The one that don't quit always reaped through
Speaker 1: the rewards. Though, who probably isn't one record away? Is
Speaker 1: there anybody that's just not going to be able to
Speaker 1: come back, even with the fire record. I feel it
Speaker 1: could be anybody, anybody, honestly, especially with like TikTok and
Speaker 1: like like even if it's funny, you know, like you know,
Speaker 1: like ships, they got a good beat and the hard hook.
Speaker 1: Anybody can come back. I'm sorry, I don't know Vanilla
Speaker 1: Ice got going you taking. I was thinking I got,
Speaker 1: but I'm like, man thirty years kame with a hard
Speaker 1: ass metro booming beat. I think you could get that though.
Speaker 1: I got on that hurt that new Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know Vanilla Ice got it in them, not even with
Speaker 1: it was hard. I listened to that ship the other
Speaker 1: night that hey, that whole backstory on that crazy didn't
Speaker 1: you take that record? Somehow he got hung off of
Speaker 1: a balcony in l A. Yeah, and that's what some
Speaker 1: nice golden urine peeing the cup and making me drink
Speaker 1: it though, like I never heard of drink. Is this
Speaker 1: exclusive information they made? They may be drink piss sugar.
Speaker 1: I don't know, bro night pissed and allegedly a new
Speaker 1: alleged information this coming soon, but that this guy was
Speaker 1: out here drinking that goddamn that Anheuser. Fucking that Anheuser
Speaker 1: bush for real? You know what, Jesus, that's terrible. Well, okay,
Speaker 1: so your new project. You guys are just talking off
Speaker 1: the record, So you're these guys are handling all the
Speaker 1: production for the most part, Yeah, like ninety per saying everything,
Speaker 1: why not make it one hundred percent one hundred percent? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I mean that would make Snori touch everything that
Speaker 1: I do. You know what I'm saying. Make sure we
Speaker 1: planned it. Were planning the Pause game. Pause, Yeah, hit
Speaker 1: all the records and ship everywhere, come in, put de
Speaker 1: finishing touches on the on the record. Yeah. So you're like,
Speaker 1: you're like, you're the architect. You are the everything's got
Speaker 1: to He's the over You's got to go through your
Speaker 1: hands before it gets to the approval. Touch everything me
Speaker 1: and do pre due project. He got songs on everything
Speaker 1: that I did for like the last few years. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I forgot the fucking question. Man, we did the Pause game.
Speaker 1: But yeah, now we were pretty much doing doing the
Speaker 1: production on everything from you know, the end of I say,
Speaker 1: the twenty one flood to the hurricane. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: we talked about this a bit. Obviously, you're you love
Speaker 1: me and you were talking about this in the gym.
Speaker 1: We talked about on the podcast a few months ago.
Speaker 1: Just your new situation. You could just do whatever the
Speaker 1: fuck you want, whatever the fuck you want. Yeah right,
Speaker 1: and it's and it's gonna make sense for me in
Speaker 1: the you know, in the long run. And like up front,
Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying, Like we feel good
Speaker 1: about something, we drop, it ain't gotta go explaining and
Speaker 1: getting a zillion people behind it and differences of opinions
Speaker 1: and all that shit make you just hate doing music. Now,
Speaker 1: we just ay do pre We got to do pre
Speaker 1: be on me, you know what I'm saying, No rules,
Speaker 1: no r Like what is we doing this? Nigga sent
Speaker 1: me so much music every day, Like we got like
Speaker 1: a shipload of a shipload of records, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. And I feel like what we're doing right
Speaker 1: now was just like cultivating a new scene in Los
Speaker 1: Angeles or I mean it's the same scene, but just
Speaker 1: a new ethic and a new outlook and a new
Speaker 1: a new way to approach it because like on some
Speaker 1: real shit, they've been getting boring as fuck out here. Motherfucker.
Speaker 1: Drop one thing and then play the high celebrities. Shit,
Speaker 1: ain't nobody getting dirty. We don't see niggas in the
Speaker 1: streets driving none of that shit, pulling up out dropping records,
Speaker 1: doing like nothing, you know what I mean. It's just
Speaker 1: you know, all internet shit. So you know, we're getting
Speaker 1: busy with the flood, you know what I mean, just
Speaker 1: to click and you know, we just opening doors for
Speaker 1: the I feel like the independent, the independent error, the
Speaker 1: independent market for this streaming era is untouched, untapped and
Speaker 1: stream Yeah. Yeah, I love the streaming. So it's untapped
Speaker 1: and untouched in LA and it's kind of like still
Speaker 1: foreign to a lot of people, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So what we're doing is bring in that to the
Speaker 1: forefront and letting motherfuckers know, like, if you got some
Speaker 1: good you need to O D go in. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: gotta ask you because problems Like what was like a moment,
Speaker 1: a big moment for the city. Man, Like that was
Speaker 1: like that was fucking crazy. I just remember that record
Speaker 1: and like how it cut through just I was living
Speaker 1: in no I was living in Phoenix at the time,
Speaker 1: but that song was such a that song changed a
Speaker 1: lot of people's lives. Yes, how did it, Like, like
Speaker 1: tell me about that song. It just that, you know,
Speaker 1: I love that that run Problem was on the Mollywood Runs,
Speaker 1: Like I mean, you know, I feel like he had
Speaker 1: it for like, you know, cool three years. I feel
Speaker 1: like like when I thought of LA I thought a problem,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And he's still doing this
Speaker 1: thing obviously, but that specific record changed a lot. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So with that record, like that was the last record
Speaker 1: that we did on you know that that project and
Speaker 1: Problem produces hisself and you know, he had the ideal
Speaker 1: for it and everything, and you know, he just brought
Speaker 1: it to me and I just kind of put my
Speaker 1: my mix on it and you know, my drums and
Speaker 1: and just turned it around like you know, changed the
Speaker 1: main lead and you know it just went crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: That for a while, you guys had you guys had
Speaker 1: the same manager, so he just kind of had the
Speaker 1: pick of the litter of the League of Stars beats
Speaker 1: for a while there. Yeah, But that was like at
Speaker 1: that that was early right, Yeah, at that point, so
Speaker 1: we was coming out of the Jerk era, and you know,
Speaker 1: like I had a bunch of records in the Jerk era.
Speaker 1: I was like popping, you know, and then it died out,
Speaker 1: which records is you have, so like from the Jerk
Speaker 1: era of course tied me down. I did Shia Model
Speaker 1: for YG and just a bunch of like just random
Speaker 1: stuff like like everybody that was pretty much popping, and
Speaker 1: like it started to die out. My name started to
Speaker 1: you know, kind of fizzle out with it as well,
Speaker 1: and I started seeing like the pre De Nice, which
Speaker 1: who are my homies you know from way back, they
Speaker 1: were starting to come up. So you know, like I
Speaker 1: joined Legue Stars and like that was like really my
Speaker 1: turnaround record because I was just trying to put something out,
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't have no records out that was tring. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so at that time, that just that just kind of
Speaker 1: turned everything around for me and you know like just
Speaker 1: re you know, introducing myself back into the scene, you know,
Speaker 1: from going from that fad to you know like, hey,
Speaker 1: I just saw did the New Boys just release a
Speaker 1: new Jerking song? Nah? It just went well, I don't
Speaker 1: know if they released. I know that it went ReViral,
Speaker 1: but I heard someone yesterday told me it's randomly because
Speaker 1: I was just talking about the New Boys yesterday, someone
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, they just put a new version. Oh,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, they wouldn't be surprised. Yeah, I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be surprised. I mean it's going up, so it'd be
Speaker 1: small take advantage, take advo that ship time me down. Wow,
Speaker 1: I was a joint manah what was their names? Legacy
Speaker 1: and ben J. Yeah. I was doing so much illegal
Speaker 1: shipping around that time. Man ended up getting tied down
Speaker 1: by the state of Calier literally literally littleco La County
Speaker 1: over Now, So when you guys are working on G ship,
Speaker 1: like what is the you know, do you guys collaborate
Speaker 1: on stuff like for sure? Yeah, Like we we've been
Speaker 1: collaborating for like almost ten years now, right, so you
Speaker 1: know with G stuff, like we both bring a certain
Speaker 1: sound to G and then you know, now we're just
Speaker 1: putting it together and kind of like adding our flavors together.
Speaker 1: So like if you you heard the song, the interview
Speaker 1: produced the first half of the song, I produced the
Speaker 1: second half of Oh Dope. See. I like the cohesive,
Speaker 1: Like that's why I love what hip boys doing with
Speaker 1: like Benny the butcher Nas. It's like we were just
Speaker 1: talking about that, just talking about it's very cohesive. You know,
Speaker 1: Jam sport J's in there too doing this thing. But
Speaker 1: like just it's just I feel like right now in
Speaker 1: hip hop, like you know, Freddie Gibbs, just the whole
Speaker 1: Alfredo got nominated for a Grammy fully produced by alchemists,
Speaker 1: but just that cohesive like sound for a project to
Speaker 1: me is so like I think it's like clutch. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for a producer, I think that's important too though, like
Speaker 1: because like we get so trapped in to chasing placements
Speaker 1: and you know, just trying to work with like the
Speaker 1: artists that's hot when you and you will get a
Speaker 1: hot record and the artists won't even work with you
Speaker 1: after that. So it's like it's kind of cool to have,
Speaker 1: you know, like ownership you know, and just build you know,
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of producers are are kind
Speaker 1: of like looking past that. It's another way to make money,
Speaker 1: build your catalog and really build your legacy too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well talk to me about tags because you I don't
Speaker 1: even what's your tag? God damn it, depreek, goddamnit dupree.
Speaker 1: I know, sorry, but like the tag shit is so important,
Speaker 1: and like I feel like there was a lot of
Speaker 1: producers hit boys. One of them I had a conversation
Speaker 1: with him or he was like man for the forever,
Speaker 1: I would never use with tag. And meanwhile, you know,
Speaker 1: some of my peers would be fucking so brandable because
Speaker 1: their tag was so you know. And so now hit
Speaker 1: Boy's got a fucking tag on every He's got like
Speaker 1: three different ones he uses. But like it's so important.
Speaker 1: How important is like the tag for a producer, because
Speaker 1: I do feel like there were there's a lot of
Speaker 1: producers who don't use tag still, but like for like
Speaker 1: branding and just for like recognition, Like if someone says,
Speaker 1: like you're Jnari and if they've heard a certain they're like, oh, yeah, shit,
Speaker 1: I know your ship, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 1: how important is the tag? Especially in the beginning, it's
Speaker 1: like detrimental because that's I mean, that's that's you, that's
Speaker 1: your stamp, that's your name, you know, Like that's how
Speaker 1: people can you know, like I ain't never seen you,
Speaker 1: I ain't never heard of you, but you know I
Speaker 1: heard that tag, you know. So it's important to have
Speaker 1: a tag and to have a catchy one at that,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like, I think it's very
Speaker 1: important though in the in the beginning for show these
Speaker 1: fucking gummies as strong as how many did you did
Speaker 1: you just see one? Two? You had another one? You
Speaker 1: had three of them. Yeah, it's not a micro dose anymore.
Speaker 1: Look at the back of the back, but is a bit.
Speaker 1: You're currently in the touch of reality phase. If you
Speaker 1: look at the back of the tops back, this is
Speaker 1: touch of reality. Which one we enter you guys are
Speaker 1: in the morning micro doves face, you guys had one.
Speaker 1: Definitely somewhere perfect. I'm definitely feeling realistic right now. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I feel good though I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But yeah, hey, look, oh my god, no, look when
Speaker 1: he was the tags, I wanted to say something about
Speaker 1: producers with the tags, right, Yeah, a lot of niggas
Speaker 1: don't even worry about the beat and just they tag
Speaker 1: be more important than the beat. Like niggas be having
Speaker 1: these crappy as beats. True, but I think like with them,
Speaker 1: I don't really want to speak for them, but like
Speaker 1: just with it. Like a lot of good producers, like
Speaker 1: I think that's the last thing I watch. Motherfuckers just
Speaker 1: put so much emphasis on the tag instead of making
Speaker 1: sure that a nigga could rap on this beat and
Speaker 1: make a dope song. It's like a lot of producers
Speaker 1: just me speaking from an artist's standpoint. A lot of
Speaker 1: producers or beat makers, they make beats that's just the groove,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's a banging ass beat,
Speaker 1: but it's like, damn where I rap at, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So it's like it's just like a
Speaker 1: special art to having some shit that that knock and
Speaker 1: somewhere where you could rap at. That's why I think
Speaker 1: a lot of like these simple beats that niggas shit on.
Speaker 1: They go because it's somewhere for the artist to wrap
Speaker 1: on this something. It getting busy and they go. You
Speaker 1: know what I mean. A lot of people do great music,
Speaker 1: but it's like the cohesiveness of the vocals and then hey,
Speaker 1: we know, we gotta stop the podcast real quick. Shout

Speaker 1: I get this much beat, but then there's somebody that
Speaker 1: got you know, their beats up and you know one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty people bought this beat, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Yeah, like it adds up. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: definitely I got a homiehoes making like five figures of
Speaker 1: months who you wouldn't even know just off of fucking
Speaker 1: because he's his YouTube channels doing this thing, and then
Speaker 1: people like the type beat game, you know, like putting
Speaker 1: up the Roddy Rich type beat on YouTube and then
Speaker 1: the link to Lisa It or whatever. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, yeah, lod of Great showed me. He
Speaker 1: was showing me, you know, like what he was doing it,
Speaker 1: and you know it made complete sense. But yeah, like
Speaker 1: I just think like as a producer, like you said,
Speaker 1: like you know, I manage a couple of producers, and
Speaker 1: I know that, like the it's just important to monetize
Speaker 1: everything because if you're always chasing placements, you're gonna be
Speaker 1: fucking stressed out. It's gonna suck. You're gonna be in
Speaker 1: a fucking studio session someone like cuts your beads and
Speaker 1: then you're fucking sitting on your hands waiting to see
Speaker 1: if you could if you could have if it, is
Speaker 1: it ever gonna come out or not? You know, I
Speaker 1: bet you that's probably happening, y'all. Chasing placements had me
Speaker 1: like not making beats for like six months. Remember there
Speaker 1: used to call me like, man, what's up what you're doing?
Speaker 1: Like where you've been at? Like type ship, but you
Speaker 1: know until really g is like really what got me
Speaker 1: back on it? Because like I was, I was in
Speaker 1: studio sessions, like just uncomfortable, just like hanging out in
Speaker 1: studio sessions waiting for your chance to play bids and others. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: especially if there's other producers there. It's like you would rather, yo,
Speaker 1: let's get in the studio, let's start on the same
Speaker 1: you know, everything's Hollywood now too, so you know, like
Speaker 1: I see it, bro, I see it. I would recommend
Speaker 1: producers to just find every other way of you know,
Speaker 1: like making money or you know, like you don't have
Speaker 1: to just go for like the Drakes and like all
Speaker 1: of them, like it's cool, do that too. But because ways,
Speaker 1: if you focus on only that, you're gonna be hanging
Speaker 1: out in studio sessions all fucking nd fucking with postmated
Speaker 1: Boston Nova, waiting for your chance to play your beads
Speaker 1: and then maybe someone cuts to your bead and then
Speaker 1: you're gonna be like, all right, cool, is it ever
Speaker 1: gonna come in here from now? Maybe? Maybe not, Like yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a man. I commend y'all, because
Speaker 1: the producer game is a tough one, man, you gotta
Speaker 1: make it fun. Y'all really gotta love it. That's like
Speaker 1: people who do photography and do graphic designs and do
Speaker 1: all this ship. I'm like, man, y'all really gotta love
Speaker 1: this ship because I don't feel you don't have to
Speaker 1: stand on the damn chick all man. That is our
Speaker 1: bino penis env That is the strain no penis envy. Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1: network that works dope. Yeah, so I bought some stuff
Speaker 1: off of there and then resold it right and they
Speaker 1: called me to uh to work with them, but not
Speaker 1: as an artist, as a clothing designer, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You almost rather that, So that was like
Speaker 1: super dope, you know what I mean, Like, Okay, my

Speaker 1: one specific retail. We mainly online and it's doing great, man,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it it's just showing
Speaker 1: me how to operate, you know, as a businessman that

Speaker 1: for it to keep going. Because like as an artist,
Speaker 1: you could get lucky dropping something one time. Oh this
Speaker 1: is a dope, ass idea, everybody buy it, fuck with it.

Speaker 1: of their lifestyle. You know what I'm saying, make it.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You know beyond lifestyle. They
Speaker 1: light well life is lifestyle. So you know, just make
Speaker 1: it it day to day for them, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Meaning that every time you drop something, whether
Speaker 1: it be a hat, ash tray, whatever it is, they
Speaker 1: with the movement of the brand. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: And do you like going like fucking when you like,

Speaker 1: But for most of the time I just pay somebody
Speaker 1: to do that. But like I like to be hands
Speaker 1: on with as much as possible, so I know, just
Speaker 1: you know, everything they got to do with the business.
Speaker 1: Just in case somebody like, man, we can't do this,

Speaker 1: to uh stay for she could be close to her
Speaker 1: mom and go to a night school. I just moved
Speaker 1: in there. I feel like, you know, so many artists
Speaker 1: like will leave LA to go to the valley just
Speaker 1: to get away from the hood. But do you feel
Speaker 1: like so many people have moved to the valley now
Speaker 1: that it's like still something like you might go to
Speaker 1: the corner store and running this story because valley is
Speaker 1: kind of active. Now. We were saying that to look
Speaker 1: and see see a nigga. I'm like the just the
Speaker 1: street and me was ready to bust to you. And

Speaker 1: like all right, you got the rapper district, you got
Speaker 1: the fashion district, you got this, you got that. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like there was a very popular
Speaker 1: rapper who was on my show yesterday who probably you know,
Speaker 1: there's some perceived smoke going on with this guy and
Speaker 1: we're just standing on a corner and I'm just like, yo, man,
Speaker 1: like yeah, but like we're on the corner of Magnolia
Speaker 1: and Kuwayne to just hanging out the hood though it's
Speaker 1: not so it's good. But it's like this, look when
Speaker 1: you outside of the ghetto. Because it's the thing about
Speaker 1: La right every area is it's like it's an army
Speaker 1: around that motherfucker. So if you caught on any of
Speaker 1: these blocks, niggas could get online. You know, it's niggas
Speaker 1: coming out of spots like ship like this. If I

Speaker 1: get back to the interview. What would be some producer
Speaker 1: advice you guys would give to up and coming producers.
Speaker 1: I know a lot of producers these days are getting
Speaker 1: on with like just setting out loops, you know, certain
Speaker 1: shit like that. Like, what would be some advice you
Speaker 1: guys would give? So, Like, my biggest advice that I
Speaker 1: give to new producers is like, first of all, conquer
Speaker 1: your city. If you can get your city behind you,
Speaker 1: you know you can expand. And that's kind of like
Speaker 1: how I did it. And I will also say just
Speaker 1: be original, Like there's always like rules to produce and
Speaker 1: like you need you know, your kicks go here, your
Speaker 1: claps go here. But you know, like when you're doing
Speaker 1: melodies and like stuff like that, you always think out
Speaker 1: the box because if you can make that dope, like,
Speaker 1: you got a better chance of starting what's new rather
Speaker 1: than following what's you know everybody else is doing because
Speaker 1: only a couple of people are going to get on
Speaker 1: doing that certain thing. And you know it's always somebody
Speaker 1: that comes and changes the landscape and that's you know,
Speaker 1: those are the ones that usually you know, we remember, right,
Speaker 1: that's real. What about you? Oh, what I would say
Speaker 1: to up, like to up and cooming producer, say say
Speaker 1: like like stay consistent and lock in with an artist
Speaker 1: that like fits your sound because trying I think that's important,
Speaker 1: trying to chase like you know, superstars. If you walk
Speaker 1: in with one guy, maybebe with that one. They're dope,
Speaker 1: they're on the come up, or they're just someone you
Speaker 1: believe in and you do a whole project with them
Speaker 1: and you lock and develop a sound with them. That
Speaker 1: shit to me is super important. That's like most important,
Speaker 1: Like that's like a gym. And I would like I
Speaker 1: would say, like Bill, I would say, like build that,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like like like build relationships,
Speaker 1: Like don't worry about like that quick check. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: built the relationships. You built the catalog. I didn't build
Speaker 1: relationships with like g Tiger, Like, so I'm always gonna
Speaker 1: be on like they projects. Yeah, Like nowadays, if you're
Speaker 1: independent and let's say you're a producer and you're fucking
Speaker 1: with an artist and y'all do an album dropping on
Speaker 1: disco kid and just set up the splits and you
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, You're getting paid off of
Speaker 1: the fucking streams. You know what I'm saying, Like you
Speaker 1: might not sell ten beats to that artist, but you
Speaker 1: guys can be partners on the on the project, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And that's advice for producers who've been doing this shit
Speaker 1: for ten years and you know, like are just learning
Speaker 1: the importance of walking in with the artists versus trying
Speaker 1: to send out beats and you know, and then just
Speaker 1: speaking on like sending the beats, I would just add
Speaker 1: on to just saying like don't get discouraged, like if
Speaker 1: you send a beat like today, and like the artists
Speaker 1: don't say nothing or even if they read it, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like wait the next day or
Speaker 1: next day, like use that as motivation because I didn't
Speaker 1: have certain artists. Even with this guy, I send him
Speaker 1: a beat on Tuesday, he won't get back to me
Speaker 1: like till next Saturday. You know what I'm saying. But
Speaker 1: I'm still sending them ship within that process when someone's like, yo,
Speaker 1: send me a pack, what what would you guys suggest like,
Speaker 1: because sometimes it's like it's over It's an overkill, right,
Speaker 1: somebody will send your paint. I'm saying I'm a texture
Speaker 1: to beats man because that packs you can get caught
Speaker 1: up in the loop with then I mean that was
Speaker 1: another producer. I mean like nowadays, for me, I like
Speaker 1: to go in and create more than the packs. Like
Speaker 1: I'll send a couple, but like it's better for me
Speaker 1: to to actually get in and make something new from
Speaker 1: scratch with the artists. So that way, yeah, that's real
Speaker 1: or just vibee. If I'm not making something from scratch,
Speaker 1: it'll be good to get in with the artists so
Speaker 1: we could just vibe up. I didn't got placements just
Speaker 1: selling the beat. It could be regular, but me just
Speaker 1: I'm a cool dude, so I'm a vibe with you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. They get that vibe and it's
Speaker 1: like we got a record so that I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I don't even listen to beat packs like niggas and
Speaker 1: I look at all that. It been so many times
Speaker 1: where a motherfucking plays some ship for me, like even
Speaker 1: these niggas like and it's like I've been senting you
Speaker 1: this ship. It's like I never checked that email yeah
Speaker 1: for you as a fucking beat packs, because when I did,
Speaker 1: it'd be like, all right, this part of the beat
Speaker 1: is tight, especially if it's not my producers. This part
Speaker 1: of the beat is tight. But like I said earlier,
Speaker 1: where do I fit in on this? Motherfucker? They forget
Speaker 1: that and we can't rego in on it and redo
Speaker 1: it like I'm not even fucking Yeah. The cool thing
Speaker 1: about g is with he got a vision, so he'll
Speaker 1: hear something and I might have produced it, and he
Speaker 1: might hear something that he wants the pre to do
Speaker 1: on it, so he might be like take this out
Speaker 1: or you know this year, you know, like you got
Speaker 1: that luxury right because if it's just some random producer
Speaker 1: from Atlanta and they send you a beat, you like,
Speaker 1: I might like this, but where are you at the send? Like,
Speaker 1: let's stand this bitch out listen. Yeah, bro, And it's
Speaker 1: rare that I find the beat where I just like
Speaker 1: rap over the whole shit and I don't need nothing change.
Speaker 1: It's like, all right, it's too heavy right here. My
Speaker 1: voice is clashing with this ship. I don't you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like I used to do that ship,
Speaker 1: but now it's like, I don't know. We're just making
Speaker 1: music and having fun. So that pack shit to listen,

Speaker 1: vehicles like moving. I figured it out. That's what I'm
Speaker 1: doing outside of his music ship, but you know, spend
Speaker 1: all my money on that. I feel like like, when
Speaker 1: you're on rock Nation, you know, this guy's got fucking
Speaker 1: his his thing ringing over there. No, when you're when
Speaker 1: you're on rock Nation, I feel like, you know, I
Speaker 1: feel like you have your core fan base and you
Speaker 1: you're really really you're I don't want to call you,
Speaker 1: but I'm saying I think about it trying to find
Speaker 1: a single, like you are historically a West Coast sonic sonically,
Speaker 1: that's where your base is, right, that's the music you make, right.
Speaker 1: And I feel like sometimes when you have a fucking
Speaker 1: hardcore fan base the way you do, it's it's easy
Speaker 1: to start chasing Atlanta or Toronto or New York or
Speaker 1: all this ship. And when you do that, you start
Speaker 1: fucking souring people who keep the lights on exactly. I
Speaker 1: fell into that ship. How you want it, how you
Speaker 1: feel I hate that fucking record, fucking um big stacks,
Speaker 1: big stacks, just like chasing the fucking family, like supposed
Speaker 1: to just trying to get a single right, and it's
Speaker 1: like the ship that we do and just throw it
Speaker 1: out as stream warning all that shit, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, with no money put into it. So it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta just stick to the core because asn't say,
Speaker 1: are you worried about like like does that even concern
Speaker 1: you to ever even try? Like, because I feel like
Speaker 1: you just keep doing what you're doing and like that
Speaker 1: shit will just come on its own exactly, like the
Speaker 1: world will come to you as opposed to you trying
Speaker 1: to force your way into like getting played a Magic
Speaker 1: City or some shit, you know, right, Yeah, I told
Speaker 1: myself this, I said, with the with the amount of
Speaker 1: work that we're putting in and just all the different
Speaker 1: ship that we bring into the culture, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, And we're making it noticeable instead of doing
Speaker 1: it you know, in a uh like in a passive way.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. We like letting our nuts
Speaker 1: hang right about get credit to give yourself credit exactly
Speaker 1: because it's like, would you rather just be like a
Speaker 1: nigga that's overrated or underrated? But anyway, I've been telling myself,
Speaker 1: like I know, I'm an influencer entire generation, whether it's
Speaker 1: now or it might happen after my time. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, I might be long going, and I
Speaker 1: just influenced a whole entire all these niggas sampling me
Speaker 1: and what was g thinking and you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: So that's what I'll be thinking about. Like I know that,
Speaker 1: like it's gonna be a gang of motherfucker's inspired by
Speaker 1: what I do, how I think, and the ship that
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know what I'm saying. So that's my
Speaker 1: whole like that's my driving force behind it, Like it's
Speaker 1: bigger than it just a quick song, because like I
Speaker 1: know how to get on, how to get money, Like
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, we've established It's like
Speaker 1: I be thinking, like what do I be doing it?
Speaker 1: I'll just be getting money. I don't even but some
Speaker 1: reason I always got money with my boy Mike. Say
Speaker 1: ship like that, shout out to Mike Apps, Indianapolis's finest

Speaker 1: my you know, like artists I would work with, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like you you guys shrooms making the light
Speaker 1: brighter or something. I feel like there's no, like like, like,
Speaker 1: you know, the approach I've been taking with my producer,
Speaker 1: I work with Tony Chalkers, Like, I'm like, bro, So
Speaker 1: you know, we did a whole album with the artist
Speaker 1: named Caski who used to be signing cash Money white
Speaker 1: Boy chatted a fire as fuck, but he's got a
Speaker 1: crazy following, right, So we did the whole album and
Speaker 1: I was like, look, we'll just do it just he
Speaker 1: got to be primary artists on there with you. So
Speaker 1: like on Spotify, if you go to my producer's profile,
Speaker 1: it is lit as fuck, like he got like one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand monthly listeners, and so now we
Speaker 1: can start charging for least, now you got a beats.
Speaker 1: And so we did a whole album with Demrick, who's
Speaker 1: from La you know, and he's primary artist on the album.
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, but you gotta do y'all gotta
Speaker 1: do the same shit, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: start building up that artist that that's those Spotify profiles,
Speaker 1: because if people go and see j Nari's profile and
Speaker 1: you got two hundred and fifty thousand monthly listeners, they're like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, what's going on here? I be looking at
Speaker 1: yeah like Jane got shited cracking and look up with
Speaker 1: million monthly right, eight hundred monthly listeners. And then that
Speaker 1: gives you the opportunity that if you're leasing beats, you're
Speaker 1: doing whatever you'd be like, yo, man, like I got
Speaker 1: I got cattle law too, Like outside of my placements,
Speaker 1: I got catalog as like a real collaborative artist on
