Speaker 1: It's the bluele Cat Podcast bluele Cats Show Special guest
Speaker 1: tink you very talented, Thank you, thank you so much
Speaker 1: historically uh leveled talented person, Like the levels of talent
Speaker 1: you possess is historic. Thank you. No, I really appreciate that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think it's been dope to just kind of witness
Speaker 1: like the last few years the run you've been going
Speaker 1: on doing it independently. Yes, sir, I've been a fanny
Speaker 1: for a very long time. So it's good to see you. No,
Speaker 1: thank you. I mean a lot, Like you said, three
Speaker 1: years i've been independent. It's a different vibe, different energy. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 1: how do you because you've kind of been through the
Speaker 1: ring or if you will, you've had like a long
Speaker 1: journey throughout the music industry, right, You've been on the
Speaker 1: major label side. You've been working with guys like Timbolin,
Speaker 1: guys like this guy over here who has a bad
Speaker 1: cigarette smoking problem. AKA. But like for you, like, how
Speaker 1: how does it feel to kind of like have a
Speaker 1: little bit more freedom now? And it feels like you're
Speaker 1: doing a lot of stuff on your terms now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what makes it fun. To be honest, it feels
Speaker 1: like I'm just being myself now. Yeah, when I was
Speaker 1: first like in the industry or in the game, it
Speaker 1: was a lot of labelheads over my situation. So you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just getting back to myself and really you know,
Speaker 1: being authentic again. Yeah. With the music, I'm able to
Speaker 1: say what I want to say, you know, work with
Speaker 1: who I want to work with. Yeah, it's just that freedom.
Speaker 1: Yeah for you, Like I feel like when you first
Speaker 1: came out, too, there was like kind of it was
Speaker 1: kind of like a weird time to be like a
Speaker 1: female artist who does like hip hop, slash, R and B.
Speaker 1: You're kind of like a hybrid artist, right, And now
Speaker 1: I just feel like it's all lining up for you.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about just kind of the landscape
Speaker 1: of music in twenty twenty three as opposed to when
Speaker 1: you first came in. Obviously the industry's changed a lot.
Speaker 1: You know, Yes, I feel like it's it's more accepted.
Speaker 1: Like you say, back then, it was kind of I
Speaker 1: was like the I don't want to say, the only
Speaker 1: one doing it, but it was rare to hear like
Speaker 1: a rapper. You might have been the only one doing it, right,
Speaker 1: I hate to say it like that, but maybe she
Speaker 1: was a female like Lauren Hill. Yeah, so like in
Speaker 1: my generation, I was the only one doing it, so
Speaker 1: it was you know, it was it took me a
Speaker 1: minute to really you know, just put put it out there.
Speaker 1: But now it's honestly, I feel like the game is
Speaker 1: just more accepting. Yeah, you know, we got like artists
Speaker 1: that are doing like rock and rap. You know, I
Speaker 1: feel like the music, the genres are blending together more
Speaker 1: and it's I think it's resulting in better music too, exactly.
Speaker 1: People are free. Yeah, so yeah, I think, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I've always just done me. I've never really put a box,
Speaker 1: put myself in a box, right, But yeah, it's working.
Speaker 1: It's working out for sure. You've had some dope records too.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I'm glad you brought up the rap. I
Speaker 1: think people forget that I can really wrap. You could
Speaker 1: rap rap? Yeah, I can really rap. I mean you've
Speaker 1: been on your R and B tip like some real
Speaker 1: ill R and B ship, but you're you can rap.
Speaker 1: That's I mean, I don't. That's what got me as
Speaker 1: a fan, was like, oh this call she could bar out,
Speaker 1: but she also dish. But what's so crazy? Rap is
Speaker 1: like so hard to really for me, it's really hard
Speaker 1: to like kick down a door and rap right like
Speaker 1: the female the female rappers. You know, it's just a
Speaker 1: different ball game. I feel like R and B people
Speaker 1: are more like receptive to my R and B songs.
Speaker 1: When you first came out, what year was it like
Speaker 1: on a major label? Twenty fifteen, So twenty fifteen. The
Speaker 1: landscape of being a female rapper quote unquote, it's way different,
Speaker 1: way different. It was really like Nikki Yep and then
Speaker 1: Queen Nick and yeah, shout out to Nikki. And then
Speaker 1: there was twenty fifteen. It wasn't a lot of female rappers. Daje,
Speaker 1: daj Love, she was like twenty fourteen, you know, but yeah,
Speaker 1: it was definitely tough because and it kind of there
Speaker 1: was like this female renaissance if you will, around twenty
Speaker 1: seventeen twenty eighteen, where it was like, and I look
Speaker 1: at music currently, specifically hip hop, there's like a lack
Speaker 1: of real records in rapper right now. Like if you
Speaker 1: really think about like what has been the smash this
Speaker 1: year that you go to the club and it's like automatic,
Speaker 1: like there's ship to play, for sure, there's ship to play,
Speaker 1: But the days I just there's not like like these
Speaker 1: dudes ain't making anthems no more at all. Now Glorilla
Speaker 1: is making a fucking anthem, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I love like Megan's making real records, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Shit Coiler Ray the Players record is a dope.
Speaker 1: That's a hit. It's a hit, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I just feel like dudes are just like kind of
Speaker 1: like women are taking over. To be honest, I hear
Speaker 1: more of the girls rapping than I do the guys,
Speaker 1: and they're making just better songs absolutely, and we know
Speaker 1: our audience too, like you know, women are speaking for women.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, do you feel like you should
Speaker 1: have got nominated for a Grammy? Uh? I don't want
Speaker 1: to say that now. I think you know, I'm really
Speaker 1: hard on myself. I'm a hard critic, So I got
Speaker 1: a lot of work to put in still right, and
Speaker 1: like I say, I'm really just getting my foot in
Speaker 1: that door again. Yeah, so with time, and I don't
Speaker 1: really make music to like be nominated nowhere. I feel like,
Speaker 1: you know, if it happens to happen, happens, it happens,
Speaker 1: and I'm grateful, but you know that's not like the
Speaker 1: end all for sure. Like I said, so many artists
Speaker 1: that never really got there. Yeah, got their Grammy or
Speaker 1: got their awards, but I mean not barely. Just won
Speaker 1: the Grammy last year and it was like twenty twenty
Speaker 1: five years later after he's deserve Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah no,
Speaker 1: So yeah, this new album is well, first of all,
Speaker 1: explain the title. So my new album is called Thanks
Speaker 1: for Nothing, and it's going to be released in February.
Speaker 1: And I really wanted to make a project that was
Speaker 1: like geared towards the women, of course, but Valentine's Day
Speaker 1: is coming up, and you know me, I'm always speaking
Speaker 1: for my ladies. Yep. I'm always talking about heartbreaks and
Speaker 1: relationship issues, and that's like my So I was like,
Speaker 1: it's perfect time. Thanks for Nothing, it's the album. Is
Speaker 1: that what you tell like X, That's what I tell
Speaker 1: my ex. Get you go through a breakup, it's like,
Speaker 1: thanks for nothing, thanks for wasting my fucking wasting my time.
Speaker 1: That's it, you know, thanks for nothing. Is that the
Speaker 1: hardest part about going through a bad breakup where it's
Speaker 1: like I just wasted like some prime real estate in
Speaker 1: my life with this fucking guy. Of course, that's the
Speaker 1: that's the worst part about it. You can't get time back,
Speaker 1: but you can get lessons from it. True, that's the upside.
Speaker 1: You know you always learn, Yeah, learn from everything. But
Speaker 1: I like how you said that though. It's like, man,
Speaker 1: it took my time and wasted it. That's true because
Speaker 1: you're in your twenties early thirties, Like you're like, yo,
Speaker 1: like this is the prime of my life. Yeah, don't
Speaker 1: take that lightly, don't waste my exactly, and I'm twenty seven,

Speaker 1: the last record we just wrapped it. That's why there's
Speaker 1: another feature with Young Blue and it's called Stingy. Amazing record.
Speaker 1: You know, working with Blue is so, you know, so easy.
Speaker 1: He's got a super dope tone too, very unique. Come on,
Speaker 1: So Stingy is dropping really soon. It's gonna be on
Speaker 1: radio as well, produced by your maker and it's a vibe.
Speaker 1: You know. Were you guys in the studio together for
Speaker 1: that one, No, we weren't. He actually uh sent it
Speaker 1: to me and we kind of just went back and
Speaker 1: forth with it until it was right for you. Like,
Speaker 1: what is your like writing process? Because obviously being able
Speaker 1: to rap, being able to like do the lyrical shit,
Speaker 1: but also being able to like write songs, like, are
Speaker 1: you open to input, like when it comes to like
Speaker 1: top lines or hooks or shit like that, because obviously
Speaker 1: you're in the studio with Berg. Berg is obviously a
Speaker 1: great songwriter. Yeah, because I'm open now. I used to
Speaker 1: be really really like, you know, I kept my music
Speaker 1: really to myself. I'd write it at home and go
Speaker 1: to the studio cut it by myself. You know, nobody
Speaker 1: would hear my shit until it kind of was about
Speaker 1: to release. But now working with it, he kind of
Speaker 1: introduced me to working with other writers. You know, He'll
Speaker 1: he'll have the studio open and it'll be like ten
Speaker 1: people in the booth at once. So I think it's
Speaker 1: good in the industry. Honestly, everybody's taking taking you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you've been in like an actual studio session, you
Speaker 1: kind of know what it is. It's like it's like
Speaker 1: a bunch of it's just a free flowing flow of ideas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we get a lot of shit done quicker. Like
Speaker 1: it could be the engineer given ideas to exactly and
Speaker 1: for some reason they never get any credit. Shout out
Speaker 1: to the engineers, yeah, shout out to source. You know,
Speaker 1: sources engineering my last album. So we've been working really
Speaker 1: really hard. But yeah, everybody has like a input into
Speaker 1: the ship now, so you know we're coming harder. What
Speaker 1: is uh? So the Grammys just got wrapped up? Uh
Speaker 1: Harry Styles when I'm in here. But for you, what
Speaker 1: was your favorite album? Okay? I don't even want to
Speaker 1: go Grammy cycle because it's a little confusing to remember
Speaker 1: what came out from September to September. But what was
Speaker 1: your favorite album last year? My favorite album last year?
Speaker 1: I like underground like artists, not even underground, but like
Speaker 1: Brent Fire's. Brent Fire's album is crazy toxic. I played
Speaker 1: that ship out, very toxic, toxic album. I love it, Yes,
Speaker 1: So for me that was my top album, you know,
Speaker 1: and I don't mean to say underground, but I love
Speaker 1: like you know, people that aren't may not be on
Speaker 1: a radio twenty four to seven, so those are He's
Speaker 1: a beast. His band is crazy too, super crazy paining.
Speaker 1: What about on the hip hop side? Hip hop side? Man,
Speaker 1: it might have been a light year for REP. I
Speaker 1: mean there was some good ship. There was like a
Speaker 1: Kendrick Pusher te okay, okay, okay, what else was dope Blast?
Speaker 1: Year Future Okay, future, damn near R and B artist
Speaker 1: now like wait for You, It is like a brilliant
Speaker 1: R and B record. I feel you, But yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: still locked in with R and B. I guess I
Speaker 1: didn't really turn into much much better on that R
Speaker 1: and B shit. Yeah, I've been going through it. So Okay,
Speaker 1: the guy who won Best R and B Album that
Speaker 1: Chris Brown did not know who he was? Did you
Speaker 1: know who he was? I didn't know who he was
Speaker 1: at all? Okay, but you know, did you some someone knows?
Speaker 1: Though some one knows. Yeah, but I do feel like
Speaker 1: Chris deserved he deserves Listen. I think Chris Brown is
Speaker 1: probably him or Jamie Fox in terms of just talent
Speaker 1: in one body, the most talented motherfuckers in the world,
Speaker 1: because like, Chris Brown can dance, he can sing, he
Speaker 1: can pay an entertainer, he could fucking uh, he could
Speaker 1: play basketball. I just mean talent, I'm not even tomorrow,
Speaker 1: just everything. And then you got Jamie Fox. You could
Speaker 1: do stand up, he can act, he can that's crazy.
Speaker 1: He is a comedian as well. Those two are like
Speaker 1: the two unicorns. If we're just talking about raw talent,
Speaker 1: Chris Brown's like I feel like I feel like sometimes
Speaker 1: we don't appreciate Chris enough. Absolutely, I do feel like
Speaker 1: he's like the closest we have to Mike. He's our Mike.
Speaker 1: He's our Mike for sure. So yeah, to see somebody
Speaker 1: else win like that, it did break break our hearts.
Speaker 1: You know, I felt I felt Chris on it because
Speaker 1: Chris Brown's almost hard it was. I mean, look, I
Speaker 1: don't even like the other guy. I didn't listen to
Speaker 1: his album, so it could be better. And that's the thing.
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard of it. I didn't listen to Harry
Speaker 1: Style's album. That's lot of Grammys. You know, we gotta
Speaker 1: be careful giving, you know, give any award shows too much. Well,
Speaker 1: you know what they did this year. They realized nobody
Speaker 1: was watching, so they just made that ship hip hop
Speaker 1: as fuck, right. I heard they had a hip hop tribute.
Speaker 1: It was not just that, it was like the whole
Speaker 1: show ended with like jay Z wrapping out of the
Speaker 1: Last Supper when DJ Khalad and Little Baby did freestyle
Speaker 1: at the Grammys. This is amazing. It was amazing. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear that. Though we do need more,
Speaker 1: you know, just more involvement. I don't want to suck
Speaker 1: up his name. I think it's Jesse Collins, the guy
Speaker 1: who produced the Grammys, but he's the guy who always
Speaker 1: does to be who's been doing the BT wars the
Speaker 1: last few years. So they had to kind of tap
Speaker 1: in because and then people were talking about the Grammys
Speaker 1: in a positive way this year. Yeah, but that's the thing,
Speaker 1: you know. Rap really influences everything. So you know, if
Speaker 1: you want people to tune in, you gotta you gotta
Speaker 1: balance it out. Yeah, for sure. Have you been able
Speaker 1: to link with like someone like Scizzy who you're a
Speaker 1: fan of, or like any of the other any of
Speaker 1: your you know, because there's a lot of people who
Speaker 1: are doing their thing that have come out kind of
Speaker 1: after you, like a girl like Doja cad or Sure.
Speaker 1: You know. So Miya says that we haven't met, but
Speaker 1: she always shows love on like socials and yeah, she's
Speaker 1: always supporting you know when I drop, So it's love there.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to run into her. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: so I can, like, you know, since we gotta go
Speaker 1: to the studio, got to got to that'd be legendary. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's not a dream. Collapse is a you know she's Pioneer.

Speaker 1: Polo Gi everybody, but like is there anybody in Chicago
Speaker 1: that you're you're checking for that maybe we haven't heard

Speaker 1: But yeah, Chicago, we've got very talented. I think we
Speaker 1: get a lot of flat because like the violence and
Speaker 1: shit or like you know, just because our nature. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean listen a lot. I mean you know that
Speaker 1: is that there is something to be said that we
Speaker 1: think at Chicago's it goes straight to you know, the
Speaker 1: shootings and killings. Yeah, sometimes I think that over overrides
Speaker 1: like you know, talented sh we got going also just
Speaker 1: the city in general, because like I know, it's not
Speaker 1: like like I think when a lot of people think
Speaker 1: of Chicago, they think it's like bad everywhere, and it's
Speaker 1: like a great city, just a great city. And then
Speaker 1: on top of that though, like you know, people coming
Speaker 1: out of Chicago, we aren't evil people or you know,
Speaker 1: we got great. You know, we do great things in
Speaker 1: the city as well. How do you deal with like

Speaker 1: deep because we got like all like classical rappers, but
Speaker 1: then we also got like the new generation. Like there's
Speaker 1: two spots that should not be disputed. It should be
Speaker 1: Kanye in Chief Keith. Keith has to be because I
Speaker 1: think Chief Keep is one of the most influential artists
Speaker 1: him both of them, but Derkio is also going crazy exactly.
Speaker 1: It's so hard. You know, we got different vibes like
Speaker 1: everybody is a goat in their own right. And that's
Speaker 1: the thing about Chicago. Fill out too much. No, it's okay.
