Yeah, when I was 22 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: first like in the industry or in the game, it 23 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: was a lot of labelheads over my situation. So you know, 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: I'm just getting back to myself and really you know, 25 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: being authentic again. Yeah.

Obviously the industry's changed a lot. 37 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: You know, Yes, I feel like it's it's more accepted. 38 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: Like you say, back then, it was kind of I 39 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: was like the I don't want to say, the only 40 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: one doing it, but it was rare to hear like 41 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: a rapper. You might have been the only one doing it, right, 42 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: I hate to say it like that, but maybe she 43 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: was a female like Lauren Hill. Yeah, so like in 44 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: my generation, I was the only one doing it, so 45 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: it was you know, it was it took me a 46 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: minute to really you know, just put put it out there. 47 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: But now it's honestly, I feel like the game is 48 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: just more accepting. Yeah, you know, we got like artists 49 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: that are doing like rock and rap. You know, I 50 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: feel like the music, the genres are blending together more 51 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: and it's I think it's resulting in better music too, exactly. 52 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: People are free. Yeah, so yeah, I think, uh, you know, 53 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: I've always just done me. I've never really put a box, 54 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: put myself in a box, right, But yeah, it's working. 55 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: It's working out for sure.

I feel you, But yeah, I'm 352 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: still locked in with R and B. I guess I 353 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: didn't really turn into much much better on that R 354 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: and B shit. Yeah, I've been going through it. So Okay, 355 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: the guy who won Best R and B Album that 356 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: Chris Brown did not know who he was? Did you 357 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: know who he was? I didn't know who he was 358 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: at all?

Yeah, but I do feel like 360 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: Chris deserved he deserves Listen. I think Chris Brown is 361 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: probably him or Jamie Fox in terms of just talent 362 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: in one body, the most talented motherfuckers in the world, 363 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: because like, Chris Brown can dance, he can sing, he 364 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 1: can pay an entertainer, he could fucking uh, he could 365 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: play basketball. I just mean talent, I'm not even tomorrow, 366 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 1: just everything. And then you got Jamie Fox. You could 367 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: do stand up, he can act, he can that's crazy. 368 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: He is a comedian as well. Those two are like 369 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: the two unicorns. If we're just talking about raw talent, 370 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: Chris Brown's like I feel like I feel like sometimes 371 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: we don't appreciate Chris enough. Absolutely, I do feel like 372 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: he's like the closest we have to Mike. He's our Mike. 373 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: He's our Mike for sure. So yeah, to see somebody 374 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: else win like that, it did break break our hearts. 375 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: You know, I felt I felt Chris on it because 376 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: Chris Brown's almost hard it was. I mean, look, I 377 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: don't even like the other guy. I didn't listen to 378 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: his album, so it could be better. And that's the thing. 379 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: I hadn't heard of it. I didn't listen to Harry 380 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: Style's album. That's lot of Grammys. You know, we gotta 381 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: be careful giving, you know, give any award shows too much. Well, 382 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: you know what they did this year. They realized nobody 383 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: was watching, so they just made that ship hip hop 384 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 1: as fuck, right. I heard they had a hip hop tribute. 385 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 1: It was not just that, it was like the whole 386 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: show ended with like jay Z wrapping out of the 387 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: Last Supper when DJ Khalad and Little Baby did freestyle 388 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: at the Grammys.

I think it's Jesse Collins, the guy 392 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: who produced the Grammys, but he's the guy who always 393 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: does to be who's been doing the BT wars the 394 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: last few years. So they had to kind of tap 395 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: in because and then people were talking about the Grammys 396 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: in a positive way this year. Yeah, but that's the thing, 397 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 1: you know. Rap really influences everything.
