All I really 92 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: had to do is just show up and wrap, you 93 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: know what I mean. But he, uh, you know, he 94 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: pretty much came with a lot of these concepts and 95 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: you know, the music just made it, uh, you know, 96 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: all come together. You know, they made it all stick. 97 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: So I read someone you said it's like Aliens meets Casino. Yeah, definitely. 98 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: You know, we like having these dope concepts with our 99 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: projects because you know, we don't just want to just 100 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: give you some you know, disposable music. You know, I 101 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: want you to you know, actually feel this. You know, 102 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: we gotta make it as tangible as possible. You know, 103 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 1: how did you land on that Lambo like whomen you 104 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: come up with some of the casino ideas and I 105 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: mean we were in Vegas. I think for Dan Vegas, 106 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: we had already started the album and we had kind 107 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: of been throwing it. We already had the title and everything, 108 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: but we're in Vegas, and I think it just hit 109 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: us like probably like three in the morning, you know, 110 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: just like Vegas Casino. We had talked about like an 111 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: Illuminati like selling your soul type of thing, you know, 112 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: UFOs in Vegas an Area fifty one, and it kind 113 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: of just all came together. And like you said, the 114 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: Midnight Marauders thing, that was definitely something we thought about 115 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: more of like paying homage, but also it was like 116 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: Quemini and Alien eight Aliens, and it's like kind of 117 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: just being kids of the nineties, We're used to like 118 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: albums being experiences, and I feel like as time passes 119 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: that gets more and more lost as it's all very 120 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: digital and like like first week it's over. So I 121 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: think like we wanted to give people like a world 122 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: to like kind of reside in, almost like a movie, 123 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, more so than just like 124 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: an album. I was wondering coming off, like you said, 125 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: use sort of classic albums with mad Lib and then Alchemists, 126 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: Like now you're doing this major label thing is your 127 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: album you're not doing one producer like to find that 128 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: sort of structure of what the album is gonna be like, 129 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: and you know you tease it. It's for years in 130 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: some sense of that by that skid at the end, 131 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: like what was that journey like putting this album together 132 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: for you? Uh? I mean the whole thing was a journey. 133 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: I had to make those albums to make this one. 134 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: You know. If I didn't make um Pin YadA Bandana 135 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: and Alfredo and all of that, then, uh, I wouldn't 136 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: have been able to make this because those you know, 137 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: taught me a lot of lessons along the way on 138 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: you know, how to make a class album. So I 139 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: was like, all right, one thing I had to do 140 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: is I had to kind of like I had to 141 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: shake the stigma of that I can only like make 142 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: a classic album with one producer. So that was my goal, 143 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Um, But like I said, 144 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: those albums, you know, train me to make this one. 145 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: So um, it all like to to me, you know 146 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: what I mean, it's just all coming full circle with 147 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: Triple Us. I think that's the best album I ever made, 148 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Um, Like I said, not 149 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: taking nothing away from nothing that I did in the past. 150 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: But I think you know, it ain't a lot of 151 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: guys that like make the best projects like this late 152 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: in their career. You know, you've been on an independent 153 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: circuit for years, you know, like this was being released, 154 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: Like what made it so? Like what what what was 155 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: so attractive with doing business with them? It was Norvay 156 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: for the most part, you know what I mean, shout 157 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: out the NORTHA he really uh put that play together, 158 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, because you know me and Lambo, it didn't 159 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: really you know, make a difference you know to us, 160 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: like uh how it was coming out. You know, it 161 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: kind of did, but it didn't. You know, we got 162 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: Grammy nominated, you know what I mean, like just us 163 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: doing us so you know they don't really Uh. I 164 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: think the key is just you know, just just making 165 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: a product and working with good people. And we work 166 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: with a lot of good people over there, and you 167 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: know we were formed a lot of good relationships, so 168 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: it worked out for the best.

Like, uh, Marvin Hackler's story 206 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: was probably the most compelling to me because it was 207 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: just like, man, he was so good and like everybody 208 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: was like scared to fight him, but he could never 209 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: get you know, title shots, you know what I mean, 210 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: he have to fight, Like it was one fight that 211 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: he fought.

Um, and you know the 229 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: early two thousands times when the rapper is probably a 230 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: little bit more I'd say geographical, you know what I mean, 231 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,599 Speaker 1: like where you are from, and you know, things of 232 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: that nature they mattered, you know.

You know, if niggas in the league is shooting. 353 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: If everybody in the NBA shooting threes, you gotta shoot 354 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: threes two or you're gonna lose, you know, because it's 355 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: going a hunting and forty points in a game, you 356 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So if you don't score a 357 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: hunting forty points and you only get in a hunted. 358 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: But don't you have to be larry of those trends. 359 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: I saw you tweeted something, but you definitely survived the 360 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: CD ever, the mixtape over, the bloggirl, the iTunes ever, 361 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: streaming ever by being different. If you see a trend, 362 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: run the other way correct. But you also, like you said, 363 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: I survived all those airrors by adapting though, you know 364 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, you can't chase every trend, but 365 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: you definitely got like I said, you gotta adapt to 366 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: the game. You know what I mean, the game is 367 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: gonna change around. You are You're gonna be out of it. 368 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: You know, you're gonna be done. You know what trends 369 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: do you see happening now? Um, Like I said, I 370 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: think the game is going towards just like high volume 371 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: a lot of albums out in the year per artist 372 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: type thing, you know what I mean. I think the um, 373 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 1: the experience of the of the music is you know, 374 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: like I said, it's becoming like you know, it's one 375 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: and done, like over and done. We're real quickly, it's 376 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: real disposable, you know what I mean. So I took 377 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: them back that I think that you just gotta just 378 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: um just have like you know, dope, you know, like 379 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: rollouts and things of that nature that that that make 380 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: the project and experience. And I think you can you 381 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: can still high volume shooting and still do that at 382 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: the same time. This is just it just gotta be 383 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: a way to tie everything together, you know. I mean, 384 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: if you're gonna put out three albums in the year, 385 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: I think that you just gotta make them tie together 386 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,959 Speaker 1: some kind of way. And you know, but it can 387 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: be done masterfully correctly. I thought it was interested with 388 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 1: this album, and I think, like you're getting major label 389 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: and they see you in the studio with Farrell, and like, oh, 390 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: Freddy's gonna give it all the big producers and you're 391 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: gonna try these different sounds. And then we get the album. 392 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: It's pretty much the elevated essence of Freddy Gibbs, Like, yeah, 393 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 1: I just really, um, I let every producer and every 394 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 1: rapper on the album. You know, I kind of I 395 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: set the tone, you know, for what I wanted, and 396 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: you know they kind of you know, I kind of 397 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: like brought them into my world. To be honest, you know, 398 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: I did what needed. Um, I'll put the clothes on 399 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: and fit me, you know what I mean. Like I 400 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: didn't go and try to, you know, do somewhere something oversize, 401 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: Like you know, I tailor made this thing to me, 402 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. If it was a producer 403 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: that I worked with, I worked with him until I 404 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: got what was needed to complete this, you know what 405 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: I mean. And that's that's how it went. Is a 406 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: dream that people seem like they really connected. When you 407 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: get real dark or introspective and you know, bear be 408 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 1: a better pain the soul and go through the tough 409 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: you know, tell talk about tough times, to talk about 410 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: tough betrayal and experiences like that in your music.
