0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 2>a lane. Like lanes don't crash, they go on and

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 2>then they branch off, you know what I'm saying. So

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to be a lane and not a wave.

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 2>What made you want to become an artist? My mom

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 2>a gospel singer. My dad rap in the day before

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:34.680
<v Speaker 2>he got locked up. So my mom had like a

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 2>basketball scholarship, and then my dad had a football scholarship.

0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:40.880
<v Speaker 2>So my senior year in high school, I could have

0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 2>played football, basketball in college somewhere, but I chose music

0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:48.360
<v Speaker 2>again I was young, and then you turned down the scholarship,

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 2>uh scholarship for football, but more like financial aid D

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:59.480
<v Speaker 2>two basketball. But what I'm saying is like the high

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.120
<v Speaker 2>school I went to, I thought it was going to

0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:03.520
<v Speaker 2>be like that in college. I didn't know, Like the

0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:07.280

<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying. But I'm saying, like certain schools

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 2>you go to politics. You know what I mean, because

0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:29.040
<v Speaker 2>my mom took me out the hood, put me in

0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 2>an all white school for a couple of years. So

0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:35.160
<v Speaker 2>so you're like, why is he Yeah, why is he

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:36.720
<v Speaker 2>playing over my nigga?

0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:38.319
<v Speaker 3>Right all?

0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Every time he get in, he forced a fumble, he

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.360
<v Speaker 2>get an interception. Every time he get in, he forced

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:46.440
<v Speaker 2>a fumble, get an interception. But buddy over here is

0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.440
<v Speaker 2>getting cooked every time. But he to train her son.

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like, bro, if college is about to be

0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 2>like that, nigga, I ain't about to go to like what.

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't even like school anyways, and then I gotta

0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:58.360
<v Speaker 2>sit back and hope one you know what I mean.

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.920
<v Speaker 1>But you went from one part politic to the next

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 1>because the industry politics is way crazier.

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:04.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I disagree.

0:09:05.360 --> 0:09:07.200
<v Speaker 2>It depends on what type of music, what type of

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.559
<v Speaker 2>message you put out, because can't nobody tell me when

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.040
<v Speaker 2>I can get in a game and when I can't.

0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:12.920
<v Speaker 1>But also, do you feel like it's how far you

0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:13.280
<v Speaker 1>want to.

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Go at the end of the day. I feel like.

0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 2>If you can, if your music is hitting people here,

0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:25.560
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna keep to me, You're gonna keep climbing like

0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:28.200

<v Speaker 3>Hey, so love Lebron.

0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Do you think do you think that all the stuff

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 2>that you had to deal with effects and is the

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:17.960
<v Speaker 2>reason why you are so articulate with your music?

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:19.280
<v Speaker 3>Bro?

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.679
<v Speaker 2>I watch my pastor get murdered at eight years old

0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:23.439
<v Speaker 2>in church after Bible class.

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:24.520
<v Speaker 3>That's had eight.

0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.440
<v Speaker 2>I watched two of my friends get murdered in front

0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 2>of me before high school. I'm talking blood on my shoes.

0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.400
<v Speaker 2>You'll see it in in a short film. I kind

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:34.800
<v Speaker 2>of try to portray it how it happened. So a

0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:40.719
<v Speaker 2>nigga really grew up, like part of my brain grew

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.280
<v Speaker 2>up fast. Like man, you play video games, you see

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.600
<v Speaker 2>guns kill people, but yes, cool, or you watch it

0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 2>on TV. But when that shit happened in front of

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:52.120
<v Speaker 2>you too many times, you know what I'm saying, it

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:55.120
<v Speaker 2>it hits you different. So you like you know, you

0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 2>look at life different, you move different, You don't go certain,

0:11:58.360 --> 0:11:58.839
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean?

0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Like you don't play you ple playing a fire, You're

0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:01.040
<v Speaker 3>gonna get burnt.

0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:03.360
<v Speaker 2>That's why when I really be meeting some of these artists,

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 2>they be talking to shit on their records.

0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:06.680
<v Speaker 3>Like, Bro, you ain't really been through no shit.

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>You've probably been in a situation that had your adrenaline going,

0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:14.640
<v Speaker 2>but you ain't really being this close, you know what

0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying, Like, you ain't been this close enough to

0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.680
<v Speaker 2>be like, we do this shit to get away from

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:21.560
<v Speaker 2>this shit, not to stay in it.

0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:22.280
<v Speaker 3>You feel me?

0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.000
<v Speaker 1>So, how are you mentally? How do you deal with

0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:26.680
<v Speaker 1>living every day?

0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Shit?

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:27.400
<v Speaker 3>Nigga?

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 2>I probably need therapy. The fourth song on the project

0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:32.600
<v Speaker 2>called mental health. But at the end of the day,

0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:35.679
<v Speaker 2>like that shit really affect your sleep at night, you know.

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 3>Like PTSD. I ain't gonna lie.

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 2>I ain't know what PTSD was my whole life until

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 2>it became a thing. It's just something that I've been

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:46.960
<v Speaker 2>dealing with. So if that's what it is, that's what

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 2>it is.

0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:48.559
<v Speaker 3>Is the music your therapy?

0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.319
<v Speaker 2>Hell yeah, okay, the response, the response from the music

0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 2>is my therapy.

0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.439
<v Speaker 1>But as far as getting a professional to help you

0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and guide you through you know, your or your thoughts

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.679
<v Speaker 1>and the things that you made, you know, with all

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:07.080
<v Speaker 1>the things that you've been through, are you open to

0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:08.880
<v Speaker 1>seeking that type of help.

0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 2>I know therapy can help me, it's just it's just

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:19.120
<v Speaker 2>hard for me in my mind. I'm gonna try it

0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.720
<v Speaker 2>one day, please do. But it's hard for me in

0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:27.720
<v Speaker 2>my mind to pay somebody that don't understand all the

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.839
<v Speaker 2>shit I've been through. Powert on top because after making

0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:33.120
<v Speaker 2>it out of Ohio, I had to live out of

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.560
<v Speaker 2>my car when it hit rock bottom a couple of times,

0:13:35.600 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 2>living in a room with no windows. So it's like

0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:39.960
<v Speaker 2>my grandma was murdered while I was living out of

0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.679
<v Speaker 2>my car. I didn't get to make that funeral. So

0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.680
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the day, it's like it's a

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:50.840
<v Speaker 2>lot of shit piled up, and it's like, I don't know.

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:54.760
<v Speaker 3>It's for me. It's hard to.

0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Just talk to somebody and really believe that they gonna

0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:59.760
<v Speaker 2>understand what I'm going through when they ain't been through

0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:01.800
<v Speaker 2>nothing of this shit that I've been through or I

0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:02.360
<v Speaker 2>had to deal with.

0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>You feel me, I think you'd be surprised if you

0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:08.120
<v Speaker 1>just like you're open to it and the followed show

0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.600
<v Speaker 1>with it, and just if it doesn't work with the

0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 1>first one, there's many others, and just finding the one

0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 1>that is best fitting for you. I just think that

0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the idea that you're open to it is a step.

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that is a step. Yeah, and yeah, go get therapy.

0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:42.600
<v Speaker 2>thinking about my grandma.

0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:43.280
<v Speaker 3>You feel me.

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 2>But after the show, like I said, getting them DMS

0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:48.920
<v Speaker 2>type shit like bro, like you asking my friend that,

0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:49.920

<v Speaker 2>So And I wasn't even doing it for that. I'm

0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:58.400
<v Speaker 2>doing it because I understand, like we all go through shit,

0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.359
<v Speaker 2>and we going through it, we feel like we're the

0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:03.720
<v Speaker 2>only ones on earth going through it. That's just human.

0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:06.159
<v Speaker 2>That's just how it be. But when you know somebody

0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:08.640
<v Speaker 2>else going through it too, the kind of give you, Like.

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Just just hearing your story, man, like you really got

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:15.920

<v Speaker 4>having this quick conversation and stuff with you.

0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:19.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, man, that's crazy.

0:19:19.600 --> 0:19:22.240
<v Speaker 4>But now it kind of explains everything with your music

0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:25.639
<v Speaker 4>and like just what type of person that you molded

0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:28.640
<v Speaker 4>into because you said like you was making the type

0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:31.240
<v Speaker 4>of music that you was talking about women and drugs

0:19:31.240 --> 0:19:32.439
<v Speaker 4>and stuff like this, and then.

0:19:32.440 --> 0:19:33.240
<v Speaker 3>Not drugs, but.

0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:38.640
<v Speaker 2>The typical way staying on the couch, turn up bottles,

0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:39.080
<v Speaker 2>pop out.

0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:43.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, but yeah, just you know, now everything makes

0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:45.280
<v Speaker 4>a lot of sense now when I see what type

0:19:45.280 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 4>of artist you is, like your demeanor everything.

0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:49.879
<v Speaker 1>How old are you?

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:52.119
<v Speaker 3>Twenty seven seven?

0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, I would add I would also say I

0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.040
<v Speaker 2>thought therapy was like for crazy folks, people you know,

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:03.080
<v Speaker 2>ain't don't got it all. But I would like to just

0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:06.439
<v Speaker 2>share with you that therapy gave me clarity on a

0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:08.880
<v Speaker 2>lot of shit that I was dealing with. It gave

0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:12.320
<v Speaker 2>me clarity, and like my past relationships, I realized that

0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:15.359
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't them, it was me, and I was immature,

0:20:15.440 --> 0:20:19.000
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I wasn't ready for a commitment.

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:20.880
<v Speaker 3>And trauma type shit. Yeah, it was like trauma.

0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Like I never saw a committed relationship growing up, so

0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:27.000
<v Speaker 2>like I was just reacting what I was, just acting

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.560
<v Speaker 2>what I saw and what I thought was normal to me,

0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:33.040
<v Speaker 2>which wasn't to be faithful, so I really But it

0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:35.240
<v Speaker 2>wasn't until I spoke to somebody professionally to help me

0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:38.159
<v Speaker 2>unpack that shit that I realized, oh okay, and I

0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.159
<v Speaker 2>wasn't even ready because I was doing all this at

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.120
<v Speaker 2>a young age and I'm over here like making I'm

0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:45.680
<v Speaker 2>making babies, and now I'm over here like with baby,

0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:50.080
<v Speaker 2>multiple baby mamas, and I'm just realizing, oh as I'm

0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:53.119
<v Speaker 2>as someone's helping me unpack this. This could have all

0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:56.080
<v Speaker 2>been prevented had I would have had some clarity in

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:59.320
<v Speaker 2>my life. And I couldn't blame my dad because he's

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 2>a product of his environment. I couldn't really blame my mom.

0:21:01.840 --> 0:21:04.119
<v Speaker 2>You know, these are my parents are from the island,

0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:07.719
<v Speaker 2>so uh, success to them, And I close it out

0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:09.520
<v Speaker 2>by saying, success to them was a little different than

0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:12.359
<v Speaker 2>success to me, Like my dad having a job with

0:21:12.480 --> 0:21:16.200
<v Speaker 2>health benefits was success me. I wanted to follow my dreams.

0:21:16.640 --> 0:21:19.919
<v Speaker 2>But speaking to a therapist and a counselor helped me

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:23.800
<v Speaker 2>navigate through all that shit, especially like I never really

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:25.919
<v Speaker 2>my mom really really was with my mom like she

0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:28.000
<v Speaker 2>was like she worked a whole bunch of times. So

0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:30.159
<v Speaker 2>I was raised by my grandma a lot, so I

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:32.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of gravitated more to my grandma. So like me

0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:33.919
<v Speaker 2>and my mom was like friends, you know what I'm saying. So,

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:36.679
<v Speaker 2>but I needed someone to help me understand why me

0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:39.200
<v Speaker 2>and her had this type of relationship that we had

0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:41.720
<v Speaker 2>and why I gravitated to my grandma the way I did.

0:21:41.800 --> 0:21:43.119
<v Speaker 3>So it was a whole thing.

0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:44.760
<v Speaker 2>And I only wanted to share that with you because

0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:47.239
<v Speaker 2>I didn't think that I had nothing. You know, we

0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:49.679
<v Speaker 2>always just think, yeah, we all right, we're good, but

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:51.560
<v Speaker 2>sometimes were not good, that's the fact.

0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:54.280
<v Speaker 3>And we have to say I'm not good a lot

0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:57.320
<v Speaker 3>of times. We're not good. My sleeping. I already know

0:23:56.000 --> 0:24:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Hm, I feel like uh more, start to try to

0:24:03.080 --> 0:24:07.199
<v Speaker 2>become full of yourself. We put a negative connotation on

0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:09.919
<v Speaker 2>being full of yourself. I feel like a lot of

0:24:09.960 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 2>people aren't full of themselves enough where And it don't

0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:17.200
<v Speaker 2>mean no cocky or arrogant. But when you full of yourself,

0:24:17.280 --> 0:24:19.680
<v Speaker 2>can't nobody else tell you who you are? Or can't

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:23.359
<v Speaker 2>nobody society can't steer you where they want to steer you.

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 2>And also I want to say, the man that invented

0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:34.439
<v Speaker 2>the light bulb didn't do it for money. He did

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:38.280
<v Speaker 2>it because we needed light. The man that invented the

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:41.000
<v Speaker 2>loaf of bread didn't do it for money. He did

0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:43.840
<v Speaker 2>it because we needed to he wanted to eat. So

0:24:45.119 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 2>create something eventual light bulb and just know every day

0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:52.479
<v Speaker 2>we wake up we walking around and using somebody else's idea.

0:24:53.160 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 2>So try to come up with something to invent you

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 2>feel me that's it.
