I 34 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: picked up a camera first because I thought I was 35 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: gonna be a party promoter. I was always going to 36 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: be a concert thrower. So in college I booked with 37 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: Khalifa for a concert It's two thou and ten, and 38 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: I was really just working around to be honest, like 39 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: I had never done anything UM in Atlanta. I was 40 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: just a college student and I had this opportunity. I 41 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: booked him. I took out a student loan and after 42 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: the concert, like I was trying to take a picture 43 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: with him, my phone was dead, all my friends had left. 44 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: At this time, I was like cleaning up the space. 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: And after that, I was just like, man, I'm gonna 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: go buy a camera. So next time I do event, 47 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have a camera. I'm gonna be able to 48 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: take a picture with him. Guy's literally as far as 49 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: I thought about it. And um, after I did that concert, 50 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: a lot of local artists started to hit me up, 51 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 1: like yo, who are you? What do you do? So 52 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: I actually got into managing the artist. And then while 53 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: enaging the artist, I was like, shoot, I'm gonna just 54 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: use this camera on you. And then from there, you know, 55 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: I just found a way to make you know, fifty 56 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: bucks a hunting bucks, just shooting him, his friends, other people, 57 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: and then it just became something that I fell in 58 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: love with for people trying to come up. Though, I 59 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: think the dopest thing is that you you you created 60 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: like you you created that, like you went like I remember, 61 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: he created the culture. That's what I'm saying. Every time 62 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: you see Metro, you see him taking the pictures. Like 63 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: he didn't ask for no hand out. He damned there 64 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: didn't even talk like, no, no, I didn't know your 65 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: name for a long time. I don't know homie with 66 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: the camera, you know what I'm saying. But he made 67 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: show he got get him in metro confused back in 68 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: the day like for real, for real, Like that's how No, 69 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: but that's how like that's how instrumental he was in 70 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: that whole time period and era because he was always 71 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: there like that ship was crazy. No, I appreciated that, Like, uh, 72 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of you all on my on my 73 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: come up definitely is special. And I just always love 74 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: Atlantic for embracing me, like, you know, just being a 75 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: kid from out of town. Um, a lot of people. 76 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm from Maryland originally Peg County, so a lot of 77 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: the times y'all saw me quiet. It is just because 78 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: out of respect for that, you know, the culture of 79 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: the scene. I'm not here to be loud. I'm here 80 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: to do a job and I'm here to respect what's 81 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: going on. Like I always say, as a photographer, is 82 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: important to note when the document of moment and when 83 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: the creative moment, and at the beginning of my career 84 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: was important just to document what I was seeing and 85 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: not I actually try to disrupt it do too much. 86 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,239 Speaker 1: So yeah, I was super quiet, kid, I wasn't talking 87 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: at all. And the studio sessions, I was just happy 88 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: to be there and just trying to do my job. 89 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: So how do how do? How do? How do? How 90 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: do they work? Like like what they call it when 91 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: they were talking about the last time, you know, man, 92 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: I I ain't got into it yet, to be honest, 93 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: but I'm working on something right now. Um, I don't know. 94 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 1: Just looking into it, it sounds like something interesting because 95 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: right now, you gotta say, I'm a photographer that came 96 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: up on social media era, so my photos are everywhere 97 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: on the internet. You know. Once I posted to Instagram, 98 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: it's being ripped by every magazine posted here here. Like 99 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: I just look at people's phones. Sometimes they have a 100 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: photo I took as a screen saving. I'm like, I 101 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: just did not give you that photo. I can't give 102 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: you rights for none of that. So the idea of 103 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: an n f T for me as a content creator 104 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: is it's something that I'm interested in because it's really 105 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: a way that I can control the rights and control 106 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: how people are using my work online, which is something 107 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: that most photographers struggle with. To this day. I mean 108 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: some of the photos y'all know that's famous that I took. 109 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: I didn't really make no money off of it, besides 110 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: maybe the day I got paid for doing it, or 111 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. So the idea of something 112 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: giving me royalties on a digital use sound amazing to me. 113 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: Um show, That's why I brought it up. Yeah, I 114 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: got legendary pictures that you can if you just say, 115 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: then you do a photo shoot with somebody and you 116 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: get them to shoot a single picture and you made that. Yeah, 117 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: we can make a lot of money together, you know 118 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like for sure, but for me, like 119 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: I look at myself, it's also like a leader to 120 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: a lot of younger photographers and just the community out 121 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: here in general. So it's important that I know it 122 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: before I started to jump out there and say this 123 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: is what I'm doing. So I'm in that phase right now. 124 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: I'm just talking to a bunch of companies and just 125 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: really understand it the game plan, and then when I 126 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: have it, I'll be able to pass it down and 127 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: then do it the right way and show people and 128 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: then say all right, this is how you can actually 129 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: do it, because it's gonna get tricky. I mean, you know, 130 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: artists don't always understand this n f T stuff. So 131 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: that's always been a tricky part for photography, is like 132 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: how do I monetize this? Like if I take a 133 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: picture of you today and then tomorrow you're going Internet 134 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: and you see I sold it for fifty tho, I'm 135 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: sure I'm gonna get a call from you, you know 136 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 1: what I mean, even though technically and the way the 137 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: way it worked copies, right, I own it. Like if 138 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: we really wanted to go to war, I'm gonna probably 139 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: win in the court of law. But it's tricky, you 140 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like you gotta you gotta save 141 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: that relationship. Yeah, sometimes it ain't worth it. An email 142 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: when we did a little photo shooting, you like you 143 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: want to retain the rights ownership? Yeah, I mean that's 144 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: for somebody else to use it, Like they gotta come 145 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: to you. Fact because the third party, it's really what 146 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: you're doing for because that shop, we just deal with 147 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: a little one that turned out super fire. He wearing 148 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: other brands, So say the label want to take we 149 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: call him wearing Psachi. We're gonna sell this photo to 150 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: PSACH for a million. No, you can't do that. No, 151 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: that's so you got to own it in order to 152 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: be able to protect yourself because they'll just keep monetizing it, 153 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, over and over for years 154 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: and years and years, and you don't get nothing off 155 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, nothing to beyond. Yeah, and you hold 156 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: an artist for real for that matter. So you do 157 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: that type of stuff just to make it clear. And 158 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: then what labels when he gets to the real money 159 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: and budgets like that costs money. It's a price for everything. 160 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: So if you want to own something that's like a 161 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: masters for a music artist, there's a price for it 162 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: if you want to own it. But if not, then 163 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: let's just do this little license deal. You can use 164 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: it forever long you want, and after that, you know 165 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: what I mean, you give it back to me. Basically, 166 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: learn all this ship just coming up, like having lawyers 167 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: and ship coming up through the runt man mistakes, you know, 168 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,679 Speaker 1: you're learning first two mistakes, you know, and just seeing 169 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: the game. Um as I moved up in the game, 170 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: I talked to older photographers, you know, I researched things. 171 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of just learning as much as 172 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: I can. But then also it helps it. You know, 173 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: my best friend is a lawyer. He protects other people's rights. 174 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: So as we're coming up, he learned and stuff in 175 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: law school. That's telling me like, yo, you know x 176 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: Y all right, I adn't know that, Okay, back um. 177 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: But it's difficult because end of the day. I always 178 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: tell photographer, you can have all your ship right on paper. 179 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: You can know you're right. You can know this. If 180 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: one of these artists taking use your photo, what you're 181 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: gonna do. You're gonna sue him. You can try, you 182 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: won't make no money. You don't have the money to 183 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: fight against him in court. So it's just tricky. It's 184 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: tricky because it's all about relationships at the end of 185 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: the day. So you gotta know when to pick and 186 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: choose your battles. Like I've walked into Urban outfitters and 187 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: seeing my work like on a shirt hmm, but it 188 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: was an artist and I'm tired you with So it's 189 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, like he may not understand 190 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: this ship is supposed to go. If I call him out, 191 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be like he ain't gonna understand it. Like 192 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: I paid you, I paid you for the shoot. You 193 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: paid me for the shoot, but you ain't paid, just 194 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: go do whatever you want to do with it. So 195 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 1: especially in Atlanta. Yeah, Atlanta, they don't understand that. So 196 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: it's like you really got to pick and choose. They 197 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: spend all their money and when it get fresh and 198 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: all this ship, theyse's face. Yeah, photo expected. You can 199 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: choose my battles like you got it. You can use 200 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: it for that. That's cool, but you're not not necessarily 201 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: supposed to, you know what I mean. But what do 202 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: you think that you should try to? Uh, Like when 203 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: you do shoot with niggas, you should tell them like look, bro, 204 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: the big niggas like bro, you did brood makes some 205 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: moneyut of these kids. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, But it's again, 206 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: it's just tricky. It's tricky because you got these other 207 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: artists sometimes to have so many hands in the pot 208 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: that they don't even want to acknowledge you. And then 209 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: also keep it real. I'm blessed that Atlanta embraced me 210 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: and I carry myself a certain type of way, but 211 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: some of these artists don't respect the photographer enough to 212 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: listen to me talking about I want to do business 213 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: with them, like it's something that that see what I 214 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: really got going on, and they'd be like, all right, 215 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: that's a good that's a good idea, that's a good look. 216 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: But it's still a fight for it, Like you know, 217 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: they're rather do business with somebody to take pictures. Take 218 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: the pictures, but keep it moving. So for me, I 219 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: learned that ship early that it ain't it ain't even 220 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: my job to try to do too much real business 221 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: with artists. Like to be honest, I have a whole 222 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: system where I don't really charge artists. I charged the label, 223 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: and I charged the companies that want to use these artists. 224 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: But I know this long time ago, I'll never forget. 225 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: Like and I and I love Young Dolph and I 226 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: did a shoot for him one day and it was 227 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: a spurred the moment. He called me like, pull up, 228 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: I want to do a shoot at the studio. I 229 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: need to get some photos, and you pulled up. We 230 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: did the shooting. At the end of the shoot, we 231 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: never talked numbers. At the end of the shoot, he 232 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: just pulls out some money. He's going through his He's like, 233 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: which how much you want? And at that moment, I 234 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: couldn't tell him, like, you know, I get ten thousand. 235 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: The shoot because at that moment, he would have never 236 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: understood that, like it would just been like you trying me, 237 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So at that moment, I realized, 238 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: like it didn't even make no sense to me trying 239 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: to take your money. I just need your relationship. I 240 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: just need you to call me so right now, I 241 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: just said, yo, bro, I don't even want your money, 242 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: like you're good, don't pay me, and I didn't shoot free. 243 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: And then from there though dog see me and his love, 244 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: it was it was also a chess move for respect 245 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: because it's like most of these rappers, you know, no 246 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: offense to him, it's just how it is. They look 247 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: at photographs. It's a nerdy broke nigga's like, you know, 248 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: because some of them moved, they carried themselves like that 249 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: move like that you had to run in with an 250 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: artists don't like a bad photo shoot or somebody trying 251 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: to chump you off of you know, where you might 252 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: have some words or some ship like have you ever 253 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: had them? Type of situations? Never? Never dope. But I'm 254 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: a I'm my manner like if you have no words me, 255 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: there's something wrong with you. Like I'm not even like 256 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: because I don't even carry myself like that. So for me, 257 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: it's all about that. But also I played the position. 258 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: I respect the role. End of the day, it's the industry, 259 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: I man, it revolves around the artist, you know what 260 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: I mean. So I'm not gonna be stupid and then 261 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: act like I'm the most important one on this set. No, 262 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 1: I'm not the most important one on the set. It's 263 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: the artist. So I've I'll wait five hours if you're late, Like, 264 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: this is what it is. You're the artist, you control 265 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: the court. But in certain ways, I'm not just gonna 266 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: let you just just pump me, y'all. You ain't just 267 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: gonna do me whatever. But I don't put myself out 268 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: there to get done dirty, you know what I mean. 269 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: Like that's the beauty of photography. I'll tell people, it's 270 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: like you can only waste both of our time. You 271 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: either gonna pay me and you get the photo, or 272 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: we're both gonna sit here and shoot, gonna be getting 273 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: dressed out, haircut, and ain't no one's gonna get those photos. 274 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: So it's like it's like there's no way I could 275 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: get guy in photography in a certain sense because you're 276 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: gonna either pay or were both just gonna waste time, 277 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: but you're not gonna get the photos and not pay me. 278 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: It just doesn't work that way because I won't send 279 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: the photos. So it's like it's nothing to talk about. 280 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: So from that standpoint, it's it's chill. But when I 281 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: when I really switched my business model to not be 282 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: charging artists and also just strengthen my relationship with them, 283 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: because it's like every time they see me, it feels 284 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: like I'm doing them a favor, but they're not understanding, 285 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 1: or they might understand that, maybe they don't trip on it. 286 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: I'm monetizing it in ten other different ways. You know 287 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's because of the shootout did with 288 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: you that people want to book my studio, you know 289 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: what I mean? What they want to buy the merchant 290 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: that I said, or signed to my label that I got. 291 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: It's because of the work we do. So when I 292 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: learned that it's just more important to just have artists 293 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: as your friends or in alliance with you, then be 294 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: trying to charge them for what they don't want to 295 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: pay you. They don't want to pay nobody if they 296 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: don't got to, and anything wrong with that? How did 297 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: you get good at photography, like because you said that 298 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: that wasn't your thing, Like did you did you go 299 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: did you study certain ship? Or how did you get 300 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: good at it? Because there's a lot of photographers Like 301 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: that's the other things too. Do you feel like it's 302 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: a crowded space because there's a penny people with cameras, 303 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: but then have photographers they just nig with cameras. Yeah, 304 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: well I had to learn early on that photography is 305 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: a skill first and then there's an art form second. 306 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: So once you unmaster the skill, that's like music, like 307 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: you want to know how to make a song, and 308 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: then you can start to put your own swag on 309 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: it for the most part, or you know, other areas. 310 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: So at the beginning, I was just shooting. I was 311 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: just bushing, to be honest, Like, um, a lot of 312 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: the photos you've seen, like even like the famous photo 313 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: I took a Gucci with the gun. It's in black 314 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: and white. It's in black and white because I don't 315 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: know how to edit photos in color, like you know, 316 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: like it was like so I wasn't necessarily just doing 317 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: it on purpose. I was just like ship, when I 318 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: turned the black and white, it looked good. But in 319 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: color it don't really look that good because the skin 320 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: tone is like I didn't really know what I was doing, 321 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: So to be honest, I struggled out to the beginning. 322 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: I missed a lot of pivotal moments that I could 323 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: have really captured and really made movies out of because 324 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: I didn't really know what I was doing. So once 325 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: I kind of figured it out, like or A got 326 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: exposed to other photographers and saw the quality of their work, 327 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: I just started to try to figure it out. So 328 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: I watched a lot of videos, like I watched behind 329 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: the scenes of like photographers I'm I'm into and I 330 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: freeze the camera and see, okay, how he shooting. He 331 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: shot from this angle, he was crouching. He used, this, 332 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: ain't this camera. I'll be studying stuff like that. So 333 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: then from there I just started shooting as much as 334 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: I could and just continue to get better. But for me, 335 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: it was always about quality. First, just get a good 336 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: quality photo, and then people respect that make it look 337 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: clear um, and then from there you can add your 338 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: own little spinner flare to it, for sure. So just 339 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: being around the culture and just being around this ship, studios, traveling, 340 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: whatever the cases what's what's some of the craziest ship 341 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: that you don't witness on encountered Like you gotta say who, 342 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: but like that he was like, oh man, this is 343 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: I've witnessed a lot of like legendary stuff to be honest, 344 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: like moments that um are just wild, just being in 345 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: the right place at the right time. But that's kind 346 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: of where I always felt like the universe was leading 347 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: me to a studio sessions or sessions encounters like I 348 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: think I was there, Like the day Mike Will met 349 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: Ray shremant, like how do I how do I happen 350 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: to be there that day with my camera? You know, 351 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: it's like that's bad random. You know, to day metromed 352 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: Meek Mill for the first time and Thug met Meek 353 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: for the first time and they recorded a record, Like 354 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: I just happened to be there one there that day. 355 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: So I've been able to witness a lot of crazy 356 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: stuff like that, And I think that's the most inspiring 357 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: part about the job as a photographer is honestly watching 358 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: the way the music industry in Atlanta collaborates with each other. 359 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: That's like a big part of my business plan also 360 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: comes from that because I'm not seeing you know, thug 361 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: and future exchanging money back and forth when they do 362 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: these verses. They doing the verses and they figured out 363 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: on the back end. And that's kind of how I 364 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: took my appro photography, is like what I look like, 365 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: tapping their pockets right on the spot, like let's just create, 366 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: let's make some dope ship and then in the back 367 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: and we're gonna figure that out. And that always that 368 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 1: always like renders a better vibe when you're not trying 369 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 1: to like handle the business up front and then you 370 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: build that relationship and do all of that on the back. 371 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: And I learned that so um, trying to just think 372 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: of moments. I mean, how didn't witness you know the 373 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: famous video I put out that went viral, like coming 374 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: back from the road with young Scooter at seven in 375 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: the morning going to the brick factory and seeing Gucci boxing, 376 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: Like like what the like why is he? Why is 377 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: he sitting in the middle of the living room with 378 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: his shirt off, just boxing, Like so just funny moments 379 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: like that, like what the fun is going on in here? Um? So, 380 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 1: just like I said, just crazy ass sessions or or 381 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: people you wouldn't expect are cool or in the same 382 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: room together recording or doing like I wouldn't and stuff 383 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: like that. And I've been just blessed to get access 384 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: through you know, so many artists to witness this stuff. 385 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: But I definitely have seen some some wild ship and 386 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: some legendary ship for real. So what's the more collective? 387 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: What is it? Collective Gallery? So Collective Gallery is another 388 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 1: one of my business ventures, is the newest one, um 389 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: But it's basically again taking inspiration from what I learned 390 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: in the music industry and saying like, how come a 391 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: music artist could be successful, you know, they're good in 392 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: his career and then he could start a lay one 393 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: and you know kind of pyramid scheme and or bringing 394 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: other people up underneath him through the same way. And 395 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: it's like it just got me to thinking, like why 396 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: they're the only artist that kind of do that. You know, 397 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: other other art forms to have success, have notoriety. Why 398 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: can't they just basically take their blueprint and duplicated onto 399 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: three other people and then get to get a cut 400 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: of what they do. So Collective Gallery is my label. 401 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: It's a photography based label where basically we go in 402 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 1: and we on other photographers and we banaged their career, 403 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: We monetize their career, we take their career, blow them up. 404 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: But then also they signed to me, so it's like 405 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: a label. So the fun part about Collective Gallery is 406 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: I get to kind of run around like I'm QC 407 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: or something else. But we're doing it with with photographers 408 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: and we have fun with and it's the first of 409 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: its con So when we put that out, um, like, 410 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: obviously I'm an artist signed to us, all my work 411 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: now is is a part of the Collective Gallery.

He directed that and shot all 417 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 1: the photos for that. Um.

When did you know like 653 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: this is gonna be the spot, To be honest, that 654 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: spot was. It was given to me, um, you know ironically. 655 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: So before I opened the studio, I had a name 656 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: for myself. But I wasn't really making that much money. 657 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: So I never really felt like I could actually go 658 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 1: to a commercial place and get my own space. I 659 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: wasn't really ready for that. Yeah, it didn't makes sense 660 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: to me. I didn't have the studio business like that. 661 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: I was making a little bit of money. I think 662 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: I was still probably been traveling with with wat and 663 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: people at times, so I wasn't really doing it like that. 664 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: But I met a guy who had the space. He 665 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: had basically like he has basically the relist that I 666 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: got in that building. He had it before I had it, 667 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: and he was trying to open up a recording studio 668 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: on one side, and he had an extra room and 669 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: he was like, Yo, I'll give you this extra room 670 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: for free if you're gonna do your photo shoots out 671 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: of here, bring artists and they're gonna see my fied 672 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna be lived. So I was like, shift, 673 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: if it don't cost me nothing, there's no risk. Yeah, Like, 674 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: I just do it. So I used to have a 675 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: small room over there. Um, it was super small compared 676 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: to what we got now. And yeah, he had the big, 677 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: big side, and you know, me and my boy Keenan 678 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: was actually here. We actually opened up the studio together. 679 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: And he never he never opened up his studio side, 680 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: like I think he just underestimated what it costs or 681 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. So for the first five 682 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: six months, I was kind of just trapping out of it. 683 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: It's like a private space. Um. And then I came 684 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: in there one day and we were getting evicted because 685 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: he never paid rent ever. So I was just like, 686 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: what's going on in here? Lu. I'm like, yeah, facts, 687 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: because the building landlad was like, you know, we looked 688 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: your name up and they can you know, you can 689 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: find articles about me. At that time, I just wasn't 690 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: really making no bread like that. And then they were 691 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: just like yeah, it was like, you know, we think 692 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: you do good business. We see you come here all 693 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: the time. And they felt like I got tricked, so 694 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: it was like we feel bad for you, so we'll 695 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: just turn the whole lease over to you right now. 696 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: So they ain't check my credit, they ain't check my income, 697 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: they ain't check nothing. It was just like you can't 698 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: afford it. You keep it um so ship. It was 699 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: like a blessing because then I just took over the 700 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: old space and I just bet on myself like all right, 701 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna do what We're gonna do it the right way, 702 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: and we're gonna actually get people in here. We're gonna 703 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: sell the studio time. And here we are three and 704 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: a half. You know, years later, we do six hundred 705 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: appointments of money in there with the most bookspace in 706 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: Atlanta in the world if you really ask me. But yeah, 707 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: but literally there's six hundred shoots going in there every 708 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: month and everybody's in there, every artist you could think 709 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: of as well, big or small. So it's a blessing 710 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 1: to now be like a staple, you know what I mean. 711 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: And I have that to lock it down. But I 712 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: got it on something definitely God work, you know what 713 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: I mean. It salute to Cam. I ain't gonna lie. 714 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: I remember seeing he brought me over the long time ago. Yeah, 715 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: first got it. Yeah, when the buddy still had studio 716 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: over there. Just see where it's it now. It's mind 717 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: blowing like crazy. I'm like, the boy got the whole 718 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: building down me on the slip, you know. No, it's 719 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: a blessing, and I'll never see anybody else, any other 720 00:33:56,080 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: humans in there. That's else to feel. I like him. 721 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: He might be he don't really be there, but he 722 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: don't be there. I gotta be that way because at 723 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: first I was in there just running this ship myself. 724 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: And then I'm just like, all right, this ain't this 725 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: ain't the look, because then people are just gonna underestimates you, 726 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: like you can't be your on work. So then I 727 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: started investing. I got twenty one employees right now across 728 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: all my businesses. So it's like, now I know how 729 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 1: to delegate, and it just I'd rather just pay you 730 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: than me even try to work the same job. I'd 731 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 1: rather give you the job and I can sit back 732 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: and do this. You may never work there, you know 733 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like the office still running, They still 734 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: here doing whatever they gotta do. So when I learned that, 735 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 1: I just learned the power of delegation and being a boss. 736 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: So whatever it takes, with the true meaning behind it, 737 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: and you know, find a ways to duplicate yourself because 738 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: I couldn't run that studio with all these appointments still 739 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: be a photographer traveling and have my label. It wouldn't 740 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: make sense. How are you dealing with the days? Like 741 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: we could sit here now and everybody grunted to get 742 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: to a certain point, But how you deal with the days? 743 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 1: The broke days? Because a lot of people, well we're 744 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: trying to give them games ship like that. They'll be like, well, 745 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: it's easy for y'all because y'all ain't broken, you know 746 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, n we was broke before, you 747 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But how y'all deal with the 748 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: broke times? And how did you deal with the broke times? 749 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: Get the way you're at? Man? So for me, I 750 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: never saw the blueprint that led me to have money 751 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: when it came to photography because I didn't know no 752 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,959 Speaker 1: photographers with bread or with money doing it. So money 753 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 1: wasn't a motivation. It was just about making a lot 754 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: of lifestyle for myself or just being able to live. 755 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: So I was never I never had money pressure on 756 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: myself back then because I was just like Ship, if 757 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 1: I can afford an apartment, I could stay in Atlanta, 758 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 1: I can do this, I can do that. I'm good. 759 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: So it really wasn't until I started making money that 760 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: money starts to become oh, make money, Let's make some 761 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: more money like that. Um So at the beginning for me, 762 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: I'm lowle maintenance. I'm low maintenance to this day. Like 763 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: I don't move around too crazy, so as long as 764 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: I can do what I gotta do. So back then 765 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 1: it was dollar menu food. I was blessed to travel 766 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 1: with artists and sometimes the artist to get me food. 767 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: I didn't really have no pressure. I was more excited 768 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,839 Speaker 1: about the work we were doing. Like my happiest days 769 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: were still like like Sunnay said in that spot, you know, 770 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: the work we were doing, seeing ourselves on TV for 771 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: the first time, like things that nature just was happy 772 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 1: days still to this day. So for me, it ain't 773 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: never been about money. So maybe it's a little different 774 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 1: from me because I didn't really get into an industry 775 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: where it's like like that. Though, why why something? You know? 776 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: I hate why some of the best days the broke days. 777 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 1: Girls don't like that. You're trying to get out of pressure. 778 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: Pressure exactly, pressure when the pressure on its own. But 779 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be real though, real nigger ship though. They 780 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 1: just need to get jobs. We sweep preached that's the 781 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: big fact of Bible. Yeah, the job bro, like what, 782 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: I don't want it, bron, nigg want to be sunny 783 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: digit on Camp Kirk. They don't want to get a job. 784 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I want to do it over now, that's true. 785 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: We're talking about snapping the reality though, man. Ship. That 786 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: shouldn't happening overnight. Man, you know it might happen because 787 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 1: you know it might or might not happen. No. But 788 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: for the most part though, I had to convert with 789 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: mikecause I'm like, Bro, I was thinking about signing like 790 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,280 Speaker 1: all these people, artist, producers and everything though, but everybody 791 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: start looking at how I live my life. You think 792 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: they like supposed to be lived like that too. And 793 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, Mike, tell the niggas to have money, 794 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 1: and she likes get a job like I like ship. 795 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: That's like, okay, that makes sense though, you know what 796 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like, but at the time when we was broke, though, 797 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: we don't win to here, we we don't. Ain't nobody 798 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: really want to go through what they had to go through. 799 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, You gotta go through this ship, man. 800 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: Everybody be looking at this ship like it's easy, easy, 801 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: easy way to get here. Bro, Just this ship Bro, 802 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: you gotta put your work in, Bro. And we still 803 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: ain't done. We're still at the beginning. I feel, you know, 804 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: most definitely. But I think it's just social media just 805 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: obviously just stories everything and the result mindset. It's like, 806 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, if you really just look at the math 807 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: and stuff you can google, like google how many people 808 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,919 Speaker 1: in America make a hundred thousands a year, it's less 809 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 1: than ten percent, Like you know, it's like the numbers 810 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: are low. So it's like, why do you just assume 811 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: you're just supposed to all vactly be rich or so 812 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 1: it's like when people understand those things, they realize they 813 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: put less pressure on themselves. But I think it's just 814 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: it's just false realities of like people thinking you're supposed 815 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: to be a millionaire. That's what success the media, Yeah, 816 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: that's not success excess in a million dollars, like because 817 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: if that's the case, then the percentage even lower. It's 818 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: probably how many percent of people are maying there is 819 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: It's probably success is happiness and you being able to 820 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: do what you wanted to do on this earth to 821 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: the fullest ability of what you are. So if I 822 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: made eighty thou dollars, you couldn't tell me I wasn't successful, 823 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: Like if that's what I wanted to do, I wake 824 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 1: up every day happy. That's what I'm supposed to do. 825 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: That's success to me, got their own everybody at their 826 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 1: own things. I think so many people put money in 827 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: the same boat at success, and I think that if 828 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: more younger people just would separate those two. Money could 829 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: be part of your success, but it shouldn't be success. 830 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: Shouldn't be your definition of success. It's put less pressure 831 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: on yourself, like people be losing their mind trying to 832 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: make money, like it's crazy. It's hard to preach that 833 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: with social media though, I ain't gonna lie like these 834 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: little niggas is in hindsight looking for me. We're looking out. 835 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 1: We can see reality though, but like man, when you 836 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: lit nigga, see niggas with loads of money and ship 837 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,439 Speaker 1: though we're talking about that percentage and ship though about 838 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: how many people having that many? That's that's the people 839 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: that's on paper though they see every paper nigga. Two 840 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: doors for me, like having blocks like like on the 841 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: same block, like you know what I'm saying, like like 842 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 1: that that that was really going on. That's what we 843 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: see the niggas who should on black and white.
