Speaker 1: where all this shit been Future it went through it.

38
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: Future definitely when he went through it, it was it

39
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: was one point. It's this tweet I'm trying to find

40
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: to this day. Future tweeted he was like, man, the

41
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: motherfucker keep playing me, Like I ain't dropping, you know,

42
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: just popping his shit, and I think, like a year later,

43
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: that's my future. You know. You know what's crazy you

44
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: said about him, Becau. I remember having that conversation because

45
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: Future put out Tony Montana and Magic going crazy. Yeah,

46
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: but like people really weren't paying attention until he went

47
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: on that mixtape run exactly he put Pluto out and

48
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: don't really care exactly, you know what I'm saying, Like

49
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: he had to have one record no one cares, so

50
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: I'd be like that, you know what I'm saying. You

51
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: gotta just you gotta know where you at as an artist,

52
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: know where you want to be mentally, you know what

53
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and keeps it, putting that work into and

54
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: shit crat. I feel like to you you have like

55
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: a bunch of different bags you could you could tap

56
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: into as an artist, like you put out like like

57
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: Kiss five was crazy. Like when you do like something

58
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: from the Kiss series, it's more melodic, more for the

59
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: ladies compared to when you do, like your new album

60
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: that's coming out, is it is it a different approach

61
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: or is that kind of like give me that The

62
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: thought process behind with the Kiss projects as as mainly

63
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: R and B. Right, you know what I'm saying, it's

64
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: catering to my female fan base because they love that shit,

65
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying. But when I really like

66
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: create my alms, like my first album came out with

67
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: all the Way Is Up, One Way, all my you

68
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, real, I wouldn't say not real

69
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: ALUs all real albums, but it's a you're pulling from

70
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: everywhere I'm making I'm making trap shit, I'm making ship

71
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: for the females, I'm making vibe shit. I make ship

72
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: for the club, and it's all one you know what

73
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Project, But Kiss series just straight female. So

74
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 1: I like to balance the bags though, But I'd rather

75
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: do everything you want. So you like to just do

76
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: it all. I like to just make music and put

77
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: it all together and make it you know what I'm saying,

78
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: Make it flow the right way. You know, it's all

79
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: about the flow and just the vibe of the project.

80
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 1: So you gotta really be you know what I'm saying,

81
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: mindful lot of what you put on there and how

82
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: that ship moving through the project. Yeah, I feel like

83
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: to like you know, when you think of like just

84
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: the range of you as an artist, you cut that

85
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: bitch off all the way to like a record like comfortable.

86
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: It's totally different, right, dif from worlds. Yeah, And if

87
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: you just go on your Spotify and pick whatever projects

88
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: you have a lot of a lot of people, you

89
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: got a lot of discography. Ship could depending on what

90
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: you listen to, you and be like, wait, this is

91
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: this is the same guy for sure? Now it's facts, Yeah,

92
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: but it have been like that. You know what I'm

93
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: saying that just I'm a songwriter first, you get what

94
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So it's to the point where you can

95
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: put any instrumental in front of me and I'm just

96
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: I'm a vibe out on that bitch. I don't go

97
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: in the studio saying I'm about to make this record

98
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: right or this is what I'm on today. I just

99
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: whatever I hear, that's what I'm giving. That's fair. Man.

100
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: What do you think has held you back from being

101
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: like a superstar myself? Why why do you say that

102
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: me being naive in the beginning. You know what I'm saying,

103
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: not really listening to you know what I'm saying the

104
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: advice people, not everybody, but you know what I'm saying,

105
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: it's a certain few people that just told me certain

106
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: things I should do and what I shouldn't do. But

107
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: at the same time, I feel like this shit plan

108
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: out the way I wanted to play out. You get

109
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like I get. I hear that all

110
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: the time about the superstar. I should be bigger than

111
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: should be bigger than what I am now. But what's bigger?

112
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying like this, I think I

113
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: think that when I think of k Camp, I think

114
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: of this guy's got a lot of hit records. Yeah,

115
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: for sure, I definitely should be way you got hits.

116
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: But but I feel like that there's it's hard. It's

117
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like the music part is easy

118
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: for you, right. I feel like the other the other

119
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: side of it is like the exposure. It's the exposure

120
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: and how do you get people to care about you?

121
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: As long as my fans care, I don't give a

122
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: damn who else care. So as long as I can

123
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: sell our shows and continue to make money and put

124
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: out great bodies of work and and and tour and

125
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: do the same ship the motherfucker popping doing, make the

126
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: same Listen, you're popping up like when you say, I

127
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. Yeah, you know what I'm saying,

128
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: Like it's it's really just it's it's that, it's that exposure, man,

129
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: It's it's the media. You know what I'm saying. Once

130
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: we tap into you know, the propaganda. You know, I

131
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: don't do that. You don't get into any of the controversies.

132
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: Exactly the thing that leads to act looks you ask

133
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: some music on top of you. You know what I'm saying.

134
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: But I like to stand my lane and make sure

135
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: my business together and make sure everything that's that's running

136
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 1: on my ends is operating on the on the on

137
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: the right level. You mentioned, uh being a songwriter first,

138
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: how often do you lend your pen to other artists recently?

139
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: Not that much, you know what I'm saying, Because to

140
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: the point where I was just having this conversation the

143
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: don't get used and just off that simple fact of

144
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: me taking my time on my day to write some shit,

145
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,719

00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: here in LA but like twenty sixteen, in the sixteen

232
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: beginning the seventeen, when we had moved back to Atlanta,

233
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: we used to go by slums, slum lords, you know

234
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's when we was on that. You know

235
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, that bullshit, wild shit. But we had

236
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: to evolve, you know what I'm saying. During that time,

237
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: I came with the name Rare. You know what I'm saying.

238
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: I was really just speaking on my behalf on I

239
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: felt like I was as an artist, I was rare.

240
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: You know, came back to Atlanta. You know, we've been

241
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: building since twenty seventeen since the Rare Project got dropped

242
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. The first project got dropped when I moved

243
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: back to Atlanta, and it eventually turned the Rare Sound,

244
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: and it just it just became a thing where, you

245
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, we wanted to do We wanted

246

00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: I was gone, I was cleaning up the business, you

305
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And that took times. To this day,

306
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm still you know what I'm saying. Everything is back

307
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: how it need to be, but it takes time to

308
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: really like take some shit that's fucked up and fix it,

309
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: put all a piece together by yourself, you know what

310
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like really like locked in on some you

311
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Pinky and the Brain ship right,

312
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: you feel me so, But I can't complain the days

313
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: would you say? Like, because a lot of artists, like

314
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: you said, they'll they'll get a deal and they won't

315
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: worry so much about the terms, but they'll maybe they'll

316
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: get that front end advance and they're like, yeah, it's beautiful.

317
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: In advance is beautiful, you know what I'm saying, But

318
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: it ain't right for people who don't know like what

319
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: is because I always try to tell artists like, look

320
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: like an advance is cool, but it's not. It's really

321
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: all that matters of your terms because you have to

322
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: pay that money back to give it back. You got

323
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: to give it back, and it's most of the time

324
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: it's at a really bad rate, you know what I'm saying.

325
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: And you know, I think a lot of young artists

326
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: that they make that mistake where they run to whoever

327
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: you always hear about bidding wars and ship You'll be like, well,

328
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: who's got the biggest advance? Sometimes it ain't it's not

329
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: about that for the rate, because you can get you

330
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: can get a large as advance and don't you know

331
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, don't succeed on the other side. I

332
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: mean you talk about White G. You know I was

410
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: me being you know what I'm saying, the CEO of

413
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: It's like I got so much information during that time.

414
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,720

416
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: some point in time. Now, is was that something that

417
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: was like beneficial to you? Because I feel like sometimes

418
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: people come to LA just because it's the thing to do.

419
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,879

Speaker 1: fifty when I came out here. We came out here,

421
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, just due to that was

422
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: the beginning of when my shit got fucked up when

423
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,960

424
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: getting rocky Atlanta on my management and all that shit.

425
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,840

Speaker 1: you go tapping with Atlanta. You gotta tap in man,

455
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: and we knew that. Think about y G right, hy G?

456
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: Why G is hardcore l A West Coast? Remember? And

457
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: then the t T shit happened. And then my head

458
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: of rich Ony quads on the hear and that ship

459
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: put him on a whole other level exactly, and and

460
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: and it works the same way in Atlanta. You know

461
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. If you, if you, if you even

462
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: came up in Atlanta for so long, you still you

463
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: can look at it as Atlanta artist. Now, Atlanta don't

464
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: need it. I really don't think Atlanta needs LA because

465
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: I think Atlanta don't need l A. But if you

466
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: want to, if you want to make that bridge a Gavin, listen,

467
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: you should tapping with LA because it got too you know,

468
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: it's the West Coast the way you got it's a

469
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: big as mark. The way I look at it is.

470
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: Atlanta music isn't regional music. It's just everywhere. Yeah. If

471
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: you go to the club in l A, eighty to

472
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: seventy percent of the music you're gonna hear, it's gonna

473
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 1: either be from Atlanta or from Memphis. Yeah, or it's

474
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: the South, the South going crazy. Period. You know what

475
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Now, if you go to the club in Atlanta,

476
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: you're not You're not gonna hear the West Coast. You

477
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: might hear something here, Roddy the other one, yeah, you might. No.

478
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: But outside of that, if you like Atlanta, you go

479
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: to New York, yeah, you're gonna hear seventy to eighty

480
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: percent South music. You're gonna hear some New York ship

481
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 1: for sure because you're in New York. That ain't that's

482
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: the difference. You got point. Atlanta's sound is the United States,

483
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: but it's so different though. It's like the sound changed

484
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: so fast down that motherfucker. Though it does, it does,

485
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: but it also it does, but it like, that's what

486
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: makes Atlanta's so important. That's what makes Atlanta so important

487
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: because it dictates the sound everywhere exactly. You know what

488
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying, And I agree with you in my whole life.

489
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: And I just seen a lot of this ship. I

490
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: was like, Man, I don't understand artists who don't go

491
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: tap in Atlanta. I've been seeing like you got to man,

492
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: that's an artist. Artists can't tap in Atlanta. We ain't

00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 1: do it that way, especially coming from this side, like

Speaker 1: maybe I bust TikTok side of the head man Lotter,

536
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: it was TikTok. That was all TikTok. Yeah, that sh

537
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,680

Speaker 1: Was that on purpose? Like did you put somebody? What

539
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: just happened? It just happened. Happened organically, you know what

540
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And you know that the downside of it,

541
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't really get the benefits financially from that because

542
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: it was some new ship. Yeah you don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

551
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: you know, if you overexpose yourself sometimes it could be bad.

552
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 1: But if you got a great personality and you got

553
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: a lot like like dope content to bring at the
