00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: go outside of you know what people like my fans

85
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: may expect coming from me, because I put out a

86
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: lot of tapes that's just like you know, I be

87
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: on my just super grimy rap bag, and I'd be

88
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: wanting to just keep my my same chemistry, my same formula.

89
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: But like Damren during Alchemists, you know, yeah, but I

90
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: fucked with some you know, some different producers I never

91
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: worked with, like Havoc, you know what I'm saying. And

92
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: you got Havoc out on the hook too. I have

93
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: it on the hook. So I wanted to defend Eric Simon,

94
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: my deep Eric Simon on there and you know my

95
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: man treasy heat. You know, I'm becoming a man through

96
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: like this Instagram that's the change record and that beat

97
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: is crazy. Yeah. So I just try to, you know

98
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, try to go with my approach a

99
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: little different, that's all, but it's still the same, same,

100
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: same machine, same you know. The bars is pressure, you

101
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,560

Speaker 1: I love it. I think it's some of my best ship. Yo.

103
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: It's incredible, and I think that what makes you you.

104
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: You had a great reference yesterday when we were in

105
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: the studio talking. I'll let you break it down. When

106
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: you think of Griselda as a human body like you,

107
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: you said, Gun is the brain. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we's

108
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: Danny is the muscle. I forget what you said, daring

109
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: respiratory system, but you're the heart. Yeah. I put the

110
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: emotion in it, you know what I'm saying. You know,

111
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: musically I put I put you know, just that feel

112
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: that that you know what I mean. You listen on

113
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: my ship, if you it's like if you know, you know,

114
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: and if you know that should have make like the

115
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: hair on the back of your next stand up. You

116
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: get goose bumps listening to my ship facts what I'm saying,

117
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: and I just feel like Darren, j'all call, I'm like

118
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: the respiratory system because like that production and that you know,

119
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: that's the sound. So that's like, that's the what broke

120
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, that was the breath, that was the oxygen

121
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,119
Speaker 1: and to make it all work. You know what I'm saying.

122
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: The brain and the heart ain't gonna work without oxygen,

123
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I look at it like that,

124
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: and I'm just thankful for them doors. And so when

125
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: we're talking, like, uh, you being so like you be

126
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: in the heart of the crew, and I feel like,

127
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: what would makes what people people relate to you? Like

128
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: you said, it's that pain in your music, bro, And

129
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: what made you want to be put yourself out there

130
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: and be so vulnerable on records? Because a lot because

131
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: like you're obviously you know, you talk about the other ship,

132
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: the street ship, the coke shit, all that shit. But

133
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: you also I think you're you're vulnerable in a way

134
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: that not a lot of artists allow their fans in on.

135
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: Like you know, there's not a lot of people who

136
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: talk in deepthly about personal life and experience. Like what

137
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: made you make that decision? I don't know, man. I

138
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: think it was a part of, like, you know, the

139
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: rehab that I had to put myself through after when

140
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: I got shot, right, I'm saying, I had to overcome

141
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: like a lot of like to get my confidence back up,

142
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: to get my you know, I didn't even you know,

143
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: I didn't even want to leave a house and all

144
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: type of shit like my parents. I just wasn't comfortable

145
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: with my parents at that time, and I just had

146
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: to you know, move different and think different. And I think,

147
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, what helped me being able

148
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: to deal with you know that that uh you know,

149
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: being you know, depressed and all that shit over over

150
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: my parents and shit. I think I had to just

151
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: kind of like I think, being more honest and being

152
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: more transparent and my music kind of helped me open

153
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,000

216
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: lighten the mood, so to speak. But like I said,

217
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: like behind closed doors and shit, like, man, it's a

218
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: lot man, personally, it's a lot professionally. It's something now

219
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: that you're kind of known for it. And on one

220
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: of the records that I heard last night, you had said,

221
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: like I wonder if essentially if you never got shot,

222
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 1: never had ball the Bell's palsy, would there still be

223
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: murals of you on walls and all that shit. So

224
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: it's like, obviously it's a personal, you know, situation that

225
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: you're dealing with, but I think you also recognize that,

226
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: like it's a part of your hip hop character now,

227
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, absolutely, I definitely accept it.

228
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: And and and wear it. You know what I'm saying,

229
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: more prideful, like more you know what I'm saying, more

230
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: comfortable with you know what I'm saying. The bell's pausey

231
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: and shit, and I do realize. I feel like everything

232
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: that come from as a blessing, you know what I'm saying.

233
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: So God don't make mistakes. God don't make mistakes. So

234
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: this was I feel like maybe this was the blessing

235
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: that I needed because like around the time, like when

236
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: I got shot, like I was, I was, I was

237
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: moving different. I really wasn't taking music serious, you know

238
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,199
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like we was outside, you know what

239
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I feel like, you know what I mean.

240
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes I think about it like that, like damn, I

241
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: feel like God just did that, you know what I mean,

242
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: like almost almost like as a signal, like look, man,

243
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: like this, you got so much got you so gifted,

244
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: you got so much potential and so much ahead of you,

245
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: but you ain't taking a shit serious. So you know

246
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: what I'm you know what I mean? Life like that.

247
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: It's crazy too because probably your your verse that you're

248
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: most famous for, the cow right, Yeah, that specific record

249
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 1: when you talk about your boy getting shot and how

250
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 1: it was almost like a blessing that you didn't know

251
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: who did it because you could have winning. You would

252
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: have obviously went and gotten revenge. What if and you

253
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been sitting here right because I mean, or

254
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 1: you might have been, but you know what I'm saying,

255
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: it's almost like you said, like God, don't make mistakes

256
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: like yo, like like you're in this position now now

257
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: they gotta mention you top five. You know what I'm saying,

258
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: right right? You know what I mean? Things could have

259
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: won a lot definitely and been a lot worse. So

260
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: that was another thing that helped me kind of overcome,

261
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: like you know, be on some ship. Like man, what

387
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you know what I mean, I got

388
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: lost in that comfort zone. So now you know I'm back.

389
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: You know what I man, I'm back, yok situated. We

390
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: was talking about how you guys kind of have have

391
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: lived through so many eras of hip hop right and

392
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: that there was a point in time that one O

393
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: six and park ship like where you where you might

394
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: not have been necessarily making the music. We know you

395
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: for making at the moment, I'm curious, like the Griselda sound,

396
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: you and Gun at at what point in time do

397
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: you feel like you guys figured that out where you

398
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: guys were like, yeah, this is like because it obviously

399
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: wasn't off the rip like when you guys felt like

400
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: you guys was pocket it was off the rep. But

401
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: we we we we got we got blinded. Like most

402
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: rappers are trying to chase hit what's popping? And you

403
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: know what I mean, what's something? What we think people

404
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: going like like this is what they want to hear

405
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: popping some bottles stand, you know what I'm saying. So

406
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: we kind of, you know what i mean, deviated. But

407
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: the funny thing is is like we are family, but

408
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: it ain't like we never really like joint forces like

409
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: like that until like later on in life far as

410
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: like being a group or a label, you know what

411
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So everybody was individually doing their own thing,

412
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like Benny was doing him

413
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: I was doing making music and doing what I'm doing

414
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: with and West was was you know what I'm saying.

415
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: He lived down south, he lived in Atlanta, and he

416
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 1: was like you know, working around like in the streets,

417
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: he was, you know, west to tell you like he

418
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: wasn't doing the rapper time and none of that ship

419
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But we all family, and

420
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: he loves hip hop, like you know, he's just you know,

421
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: probably your biggest hip hop fan, just a lover of

422
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: hip hop. So he will always just be around because

423
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: knowing how good I am and then how good Benny getting,

424
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, So he would always be.

425
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: But he wouldn't rap in the ciphers. He wouldn't get

426
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: on the records. He wouldn't He wasn't thinking about that.

427
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: But you know, you know after the you know that

428
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: after we we kind of figured that back out, like

429
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, after I got shot, you know what I'm saying,

430

691

696
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because it's like it's different

697
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,360
Speaker 1: atmosphere than the type of studio atmosphere used to. You

698
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: know what I'm like, There's no cussing, ain't nobody costing,

Speaker 1: thankful for even having a second chance at life and

708
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,600

Speaker 1: got shot. So I just you know, talked about those

711
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 1: times were like, you know, I feel like God was

712
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,919

715
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: on or something. Right. This shit is crazy when you

716
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 1: let me let me ask you something. Because my son

717
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 1: is My son is h He's fourteen, and he's got

718
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: the weirdest taste in hip hop, like he loves like

719
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,439
Speaker 1: the young ignorant shit. But Eminem is his favorite rapper.

720
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 1: That's crazy my son too, right, Yeah, And and I

721
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 1: was like, you know, my kid listens to anything I

722
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: play in the car and I played the you know,

723
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: I maybe seven eight months ago, was had the Bang

724
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: remix on, right, and obviously Eminem hopping on one of

725
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: your joints, even though being signed to him is a

726
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 1: big deal. What is like your approach as an MC

727
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: if you know now and I don't even know if

728
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: you've recorded a song knowing necessarily when you recorded it

729
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: that and was gonna end up on it, but like

730
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: when you know someone like that, it's gonna be on

731
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 1: the record. Now, you've been on records with Buster, I mean,

732
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,879
Speaker 1: you've been on records with the Who's who? This shit

733
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 1: so my like and sometimes you record a record I'm

734
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,399
Speaker 1: sure and later on be like, you know what, let's

735
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: try to get this person on it. But when you're

736
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 1: approaching a record where you know there's and mind you,

737
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: your squad is all killers, but like one of them

738
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 1: legendary Mount Rushmore names, do you approach like it's almost

739
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: like I feel like it's almost like we're talking basketball,

740
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: like being clutch in the fourth quarter, you know what

741
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like the pressure is on, Like it's absolutely man. Oh,

742
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: I mean I handle it pretty well. I just look

743
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: at it like shit, there can't be no worse than

744
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: being in a getting on ship with Benny and West

745
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 1: Facts and I got with them too. I gotta make

746
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: sure I'm on my I can't let off the gas pedal,

747
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: so like I look at it like that, you know

748
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: what I mean. I'm just like a I'm an animal man,

749
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: I got animal instinct. Man, I'm trying to I can't

750
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: buy no shape or form be the nigga that I got.

751
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: The Whackers verse on the song, like, I don't care

752
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: who I'm on a song with. I gotta if they

753
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: ain't saying Conway killed it the hardest. I feel like

754
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: you failed. That was a verse for me. Speaking of verses,

755
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: I saw you the other day. Complex put out the

756
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: Best Verses of the Year list, right, and I watched

757
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 1: the Fire in the Booth freestyle once a week at least.

758
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: That ship, to me is the best verse of the year. Now,

759
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: mind you, it is on a freestyle, but god damn, Like,

760
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: do you still feel like you like because I mean

761
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: like like you had a reason to complain, because I

762
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 1: feel like you know you are else complaining. Yeah, But

763
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: do you feel like you're still slept on sometimes? Yeah?

764
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: Which is crazy to think. Yeah, And it just you know,

765
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: I just I understand, man. It just comes from you

766
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 1: know where we're from. You know what I'm saying. I

767
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 1: just feel like if we was from like one of

768
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: the Burroughs or something, or a big name city, like

769
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: we would get a little more like love from you know,

770
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: our peers and you know some of the gatekeepers before

771
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: us and shit like that. You know what I'm saying,

772
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,359
Speaker 1: But it really ain't fair to say because so that's

773
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: why I don't really say that shit too much no more,

774
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: because like, man, you do the work, you get, you

775
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 1: get noticed. Man to work, gonna speak for yourself. So

776
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: I don't want to look like I'm just like on

777
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: like like I'm like I'm Brady or something like, man,

778
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: ain't talking about me, you know what I mean. But

779
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 1: like I'm just I'm just I'm so confident in my

780
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,879
Speaker 1: in my craft dog that I know, ain't nobody show

781
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,359
Speaker 1: me listen. It's like when Nigga, like when I see

782
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,320
Speaker 1: like the list, which I agree like a lot a

783
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: lot of those verses on that agree with I definitely

784
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 1: agree with, but like there's no way, you know what

785
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Some of the verses, I don't put out

786
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: this year alone. You know what I'm saying. I don't

787
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: put out probably the most output of music this year alone.

788
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,440
Speaker 1: You can't tell me not one of my ships was

789
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 1: a top verse of the year. But if you know

790
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 1: it is what it is, everybody got there on a pane?

791
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: Or is that firing the break? Is that firing? The

792
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: booth verse gonna end up on an actual song because

793
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: I hate that I have to put it up on

794
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: YouTube every time a piece of it dead. Okay, so

795
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 1: it did ended up on on on flea album album

796
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: almost Fleet put out this year. It was on there.

797
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: But yeah, but like that verse, I feel like the

798
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: second verse of the front Lines joint, it was crazy,

799
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like the way I just

800
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: addressed the whole climate right now with the social ingest. Yeah,

801
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: I told you that last night. I told you that

802
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 1: last night, that Jim Jones record, that Jim Jones versus too, Like,

803
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But you know, people can't.

804
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: I can't judge with them here or that's true. So

805
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 1: let me ask you this when when with the emergence

806
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: of Benny right over the last two years, Benny went

807

00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 1: that shit is crazy, you know what I mean. I

827
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: think that's what's unique about y'all is like even if

828
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 1: you I mean, you know, like I remember the first

829
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: time I watched the show documentary when I was a

830
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 1: kid and I saw that Wu Tang didn't get along

831
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: like Method Man and you guys were fighting on the documentary,

832
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: and I was like, wait what I fore like we

833
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: old was a little more praise for being able to

834
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: put when I watch that ship like niggas shooting at

835
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 1: each other in our carp and ship like Residue was

836
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: able to move. For dude, all that give us an

837
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:16,240
Speaker 1: ill him. We alls a huge debt of gratitude. That's facts.

838
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: But I feel like that's unique about y'all. It's like,

839
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 1: no matter what we know, when when we look at

840
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: that at whoever's album it is, there's gonna be at

841
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 1: least that one that's got all three y'all on it.

842
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: And you know the ship you played me last night,

843
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: which which ailme is the Spurs record on three is

844
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 1: from King to a God. Yeah that ship is crazy.

845
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. Now that's one of the ones

846
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 1: where it's just like I said, like when we all together,

847
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: it's like, you know what I'm saying, Lebron Wade and

848
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 1: Bosh some ship like that we just and that that

849
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: that friendly competition that's burning in the inside all of

850
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 1: us want to be able to have the flyest ship

851
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 1: on the joint. I think that's what makes when we

852
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 1: do it all together, make it best, even with Darringer

853
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,720
Speaker 1: because Darner and the competition too, like deep down the side,

854
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 1: like I can't have a wacky ship on the album.

855
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: I gotta come with it, come with some Craig and

856
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:18,800
Speaker 1: all three of them morning, I gotta kill you know

857
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,879
Speaker 1: what I mean? Ship like that? But like I said, man,

858
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: I think that's you know, we just all like niggas

859
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 1: being family player huge role too. We just love love

860
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: everything that we do and push each other, like when

861
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 1: it was Benny turned like you said, last two years

862
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 1: like me and you know me and bro like Noah,

863
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: go ahead, Benny, Like if you look at all our

864
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 1: freestyles and shit like that, I'll be like, yo, Benny,

865
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: let me here, man, me give what you got, Benny,

866
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And ship like that like

867
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: it was Benny Turner like let's go Benny. Y y'all

868
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,400
Speaker 1: y'all heard up, like y ain't heard nothing yet, Benny

869
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: get him type shit. So we do it. We do

870
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,800
Speaker 1: it like that. Man, I ain't I could. I ain't know.

871
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,800
Speaker 1: I ain't no sucker like that, Like I want to

872
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 1: everyone win Win Eat. The result of album was crazy. Obviously,

873
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 1: that was like such a big deal because you guys,

874
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean technically, I feel like you guys are on

875
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 1: Shady for so long, but that was the official first release.

876
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: I think you guys got to have one of the

877
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,320
Speaker 1: illess deals in hip hop because you guys are getting

878
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 1: your indie shit off all day, but then when it's time, okay,

879
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,280
Speaker 1: you know you could do both, which I cannot imagine

880
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: a lot of people have that kind of freedom to

881
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,439
Speaker 1: run up their indie catalog all the meanwhile being signed

882
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: to you know, Eminem. Yeah, Paul, I feel like Paul was.

883
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: You know, it's generous when it come to that. You

884
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like I ain't trying to get

885
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 1: in y'all way or nothing, you know what I'm saying.

886
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 1: We just want to be a part of what y'all

887
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 1: got going on, right, But I just felt like, you know,

888
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:55,320
Speaker 1: they Shady couldn't be really a part of none of

889
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,919
Speaker 1: that shit because you know, the samples and all that shit,

890
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 1: Like our sound is based off like if you was,

891
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 1: if you're a Day one Griselda fan, you know that

892
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: our sound is based off like Dander doing immaculate sampling

893
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,800
Speaker 1: and ship like that, Like our beats it is so

894
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: dark and dusty and that incredible. Yeah, you know what

895
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,359
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's how we was able to change kind

896
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: of change the game and shift the culture back to

897
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,359
Speaker 1: like you hear a lot of where it is getting

898
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: alchemist beats and fucking you know what I mean, like

899
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: that dam just sounding beats because we kind of shifted

900
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 1: that shitn't but that ship we was doing. We couldn't

901
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: paul them one ship trying to get all them samples cleared.

902
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: Fucking with that ship. But I think about the whole

903
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 1: Y'll up with your shady debut. Whenever it comes out,

904
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 1: is it gonna be mostly sample free? I mean, yeah, yeah,

905
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:53,839

00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 1: truly believe that when when did you guys really decide?

1106
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 1: And I don't know if this was Gun or if

1107
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,440
Speaker 1: this was a group, but I feel like you guys

1108
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:20,920
Speaker 1: moved in unit set, like with just the aesthetics. It's

1109
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:27,439
Speaker 1: the artwork, it's the merch everything. It's it's it's fly,

1110
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,840
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's the painting. Shit, it's it's dark.

1111
00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:35,480
Speaker 1: Like what like, was is that a group collective? Or

1112
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 1: is that something? Because I know that it was Gun's

1113
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: idea to put the lady on the Griselda cover, right,

1114
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 1: the Lady from Buffalo, But like it was designed a

1115
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: lot of the cover, a lot of the covers coming

1116
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,960
Speaker 1: up like earlier, like in our career, it would design

1117
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the covers and shit like that. But

1118
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: it's just you know what I mean, Like we're just

1119
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: students of the game, and we had the benefits of

1120
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,480
Speaker 1: just being older and being able to be around so

1121
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: many different eras of hip hop, or when we be

1122
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 1: able to watch and learn, like we've seen everybody, the

1123
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:08,440
Speaker 1: best of the best come and do it, come and go,

1124
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and do it how they

1125
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 1: did it. So we was able to just you know,

1126
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:16,120
Speaker 1: take notes, take notes and just apply it. But you

1127
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, we're just different, man. We we

1128
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 1: acknowledge the fan. You know what I'm saying. The show well,

1129
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 1: So I like to think of like what type of

1130
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 1: experience the fans will enjoy most from an artist if

1131
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 1: it was me. You know what I'm saying. I want

1132
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,960
Speaker 1: to be able to have a collector's edition Vinyl Luna

1133
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 1: brad Bi it is this artist. I want to have

1134
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:42,920
Speaker 1: a cassette. They don't even make cassettes no more. But

1135
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:46,479
Speaker 1: I got this cassette of a nigga dropped the twenty

1136
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 1: twenty and signed it and it's gold and something like that.

1137
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:54,919
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I think that is what's

1138
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, the important and that's the collective thing. You

1139

1257
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:26,520
Speaker 1: that just goes with back into you know, knowing what

1258
01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:29,520
Speaker 1: what a fan want, Like you got to cater to

Speaker 1: people love ship like that, you know what I mean?

1261
01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 1: Like kind of like with Wu Tang with the karate flicks.

1262
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,800
Speaker 1: Who don't love karate flicks? Especially back then like in

1263
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,480
Speaker 1: the ninth if he was listening to hip hop, you know,

1264
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,920
Speaker 1: the age to really understand what niggas was doing in

1265
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:54,040
Speaker 1: ninety two, ninety three, ninety four. Then you grew up

1266
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 1: in a Kung fu flick era and if you didn't

1267
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:58,640
Speaker 1: you listen to Wu Tang, and then you wouldn't found it.

1268
01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:02,320
Speaker 1: I was like, oh shit, yeah, with the rest of

1269
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:04,360
Speaker 1: the shit, y'all do for sure, right? You know what

1270
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's facts. We were talking last night. You

1271
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:10,360
Speaker 1: were talking about the eras that you've lived through, and

1272
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 1: I think it's dope that, like you said, like, yo,

1273
01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 1: look we're older, like we've lived some life, and it's

1274
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 1: almost probably better that you guys are hitting your stride

1275
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 1: now because maybe if you would have hit it when

1276
01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,200
Speaker 1: you were twenty two twenty three, shit might have got crazy.

1277
01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But like what the eras

1278
01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,639
Speaker 1: of hip hop you lived through? You know, I think

1279
01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:35,639
Speaker 1: you and I probably got similar taste in music. I'm curious,

1280
01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:40,800
Speaker 1: what are you like three or four albums of all time?

1281
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:43,679
Speaker 1: Like if you had to, if you had the Lord forbid,

1282
01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,400
Speaker 1: do a bid, and you had one iPod with and

1283
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:48,559
Speaker 1: you can only put three or four projects on there,

1284
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: what are you What are you taking with you that

1285
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:54,920
Speaker 1: aren't your own or Griselle. Obviously we asking like my

1286
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 1: favorite or your favorite thing is not the best because

1287
01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 1: it's two different conversations, right, That's why I'm a cla

1288
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 1: your favorite hmm, that's crazy. That's different because always getting

1289
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:07,920
Speaker 1: too with Kanye people because I know his best album

1290
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 1: is my beautiful dark Twist of Fantasy, but my favorite

1291
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,080
Speaker 1: album is like Registration. You know what I'm saying. So

1292
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:19,920
Speaker 1: it's not they're not the same. Your favorites. I would say, definitely, uh,

1293
01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:24,639
Speaker 1: Doggy Style best West Coast hip hop album ever. I agree,

1294
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:29,799
Speaker 1: I've been screening one. I wouldn't be mad if somebody

1295
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 1: said the chronic was. But either way, right, I think

1296
01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:36,599
Speaker 1: doggy styles. I take Doggy Style. I like Doggy Style.

1297
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: I would take Doggy Style. I would take helter skeltering Nocturnal, Okay,

1298
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: I would take It's getting tricky because that dad press

1299
01:09:51,439 --> 01:10:00,240
Speaker 1: let's get free. Yep, reasonable doubt for me. It was

1300
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: written for me. It was written all right, you know.

1301
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:07,840
Speaker 1: I respect that man. I will say, like, you know,

1302
01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 1: the Purple tape and Iron Man, hey man, not to

1303
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:13,479
Speaker 1: have some wool. So it's like it's hard for me

1304
01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:15,960
Speaker 1: to just take three or four. I'll be fucked up.

1305
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:18,400
Speaker 1: You know what's funny that you said Healter Skelter because

1306
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: you know, Sean Price was one of my favorite MC's

1307
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,720

1312
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 1: kind of as a Sean Price fan, it kind of

1313
01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: hit me. Not saying that you're like sound like Price,

1314

1419
01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:20,600
Speaker 1: don't know if I can't answer that fully because I

Speaker 1: know what we're gonna do, right what I'm saying, And well,

1422
01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 1: like I know that I've played God don't make mistakes

1423
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,560
Speaker 1: for him in Detroit. I went to his studio in

1424
01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:37,040
Speaker 1: Detroit and I played it for him and Paul, and

1425
01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:40,599
Speaker 1: you know, he had nothing to say. Everything was like, Yo,

1426
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:43,920
Speaker 1: this this ship is crazy. This this this, this ship

1427
01:16:44,040 --> 01:16:48,440
Speaker 1: is crazy. So I never ever heard any like feedback

1428
01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:50,599
Speaker 1: or like yo, nah, do this change that I think

1429
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:53,320
Speaker 1: you should wrap on this beat or do this? Like

1430
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:55,880
Speaker 1: I never was so I feel like, you know, shit,

1431
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:58,800
Speaker 1: he want us to just do what we do. You

1432
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:01,800
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Yeahmer, we were talking last night

1433
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:03,600
Speaker 1: and I heard the album and I was like, this

1434
01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 1: is perfect because I I remember when slaughter House dropped

1435
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 1: on Shady and they tried to do the radio thing,

1436
01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:13,760
Speaker 1: and there was a record you played last night that

1437
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,000
Speaker 1: probably never come out, that was on some radio shit

1438
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:20,439
Speaker 1: that was fly as fuck. But I feel like you're you,

1439
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:25,760
Speaker 1: like like we were saying, like shit, man, like you you.

1440
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:30,600
Speaker 1: I think you found a great place sonically where you

1441
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 1: could do new ship and still stay true to yourself staates,

1442
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:37,560
Speaker 1: true to your your core fan base and not necessarily

1443
01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of cats be reaching for hits

1444
01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:43,599
Speaker 1: and then it's like disappointing. You'll be like, dog, why

1445
01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,599
Speaker 1: did you put this step right? Because that was reaching.

1446
01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 1: They was reaching. You know. You gotta understand, like the

1447
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:54,040
Speaker 1: all the hits that came on that we considered hits,

1448
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:56,360
Speaker 1: they just didn't go in there like Yo, I'm gonther

1449
01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:57,800
Speaker 1: go man, I want to make a hit. You know

1450
01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:01,400
Speaker 1: it's organic. You don't know gonna be ahead. That's how

1451
01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:03,200
Speaker 1: I look at like, you don't know what's gonna be it.

1452
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:05,560
Speaker 1: You gotta just go in down and make music with

1453
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:09,320
Speaker 1: your heart and not what your thinking. You know, nobody

1454
01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: know you know what I'm saying. It'd be songs that

1455
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,760
Speaker 1: I've done the tapes and when I let somebody hear

1456
01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:17,640
Speaker 1: the song that I had in mind, like this, the

1457
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 1: single that's gonna be the one when people hear this.

1458
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:24,240
Speaker 1: Motherfucker's fucked with a whole different a whole different record,

1460
01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:28,760

1461
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:34,880
Speaker 1: that obviously Alchemists collab project, Lulu. Is there anybody else

1462
01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:38,680
Speaker 1: who you have interest in doing a collaboration project with
