0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I already know Dune. You guys got just

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>like jailing green with this ups.

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 3>And you guys have too many young players that they do.

0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 1>But it's just a defensive team, man. So it's just

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.039
<v Speaker 1>it's just so different than.

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 3>Because what's the kid's name is it Reed?

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:48.960

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Cam Whitmore don't play.

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:52.240
<v Speaker 1>But they's just just so much talent, man, that just

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:54.960
<v Speaker 1>it's just a team that has such a high ceiling.

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Thompson's so nice, so good man.

0:01:57.000 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Fox, that's so good man. Yeah, dude, defensive offensive,

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 1>he just picks up his three point game and it's

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>game over.

0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Uh. Did you used to hate Dylan Brooks before he

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.640
<v Speaker 2>played for y'all? Yes, me too. Yeah, so I used

0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:11.640
<v Speaker 2>to hate Grayson Allen and then we got Grayson Allen

0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:13.280
<v Speaker 2>and I don't hate him as much.

0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>But you realize, like how much of an impact that

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of a player makes. It's just insane. Bro, you

0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>can't help but love him now.

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:21.160
<v Speaker 2>He's like the kind of guy like you like hate

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:22.760
<v Speaker 2>when he's not on your team, but you gotta love

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:24.200
<v Speaker 2>love on your team.

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:25.839

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I have just you know, you know what I hated

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 2>was just the uh the I always look at the

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Warriors is I don't know if you we're familiar with

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:05.640
<v Speaker 2>wrestling or w W, but they're like John Cena, like

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 2>generic fans of the sport, just loved the Warriors and

0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>little kids.

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's funny you mentioned that, because you know, the

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>NBA has been picking up around the world, right, and

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>we're in India. It's just all of a sudden, everybody's

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a Warriors fan. It's just like, yo, he's just chill,

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 1>like you relax on this and that too. Being a

0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Rockets fan, you're just like, oh my god, man, this

0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 1>is a little bit too much.

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:34.639
<v Speaker 2>How heartbreaking was I remember being drunk at a pool

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:39.080
<v Speaker 2>watching you guys go like one for I remember what

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:41.800
<v Speaker 2>was that game with Chris Paul and Harden were you guys?

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember how many threes in a row you missed.

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:44.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it was like twenty eight.

0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Twenty seven.

0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:47.880
<v Speaker 2>It was insane. Yeah, that was that was the year.

0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was the if we had if we had

0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>gone past them, we would have won the chip, Like.

0:03:53.520 --> 0:03:55.240
<v Speaker 2>You guys would have made five more threes or something.

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.440
<v Speaker 2>The probability have been missing that many in a rows.

0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 1>It was just ridiculous. It's like all the misses we

0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.640
<v Speaker 1>could have ever done, just the one added up in

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>just one like quarter one quarter. It's at the end.

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, it was. It was so heartbreaking because who

0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:12.120
<v Speaker 2>did who was it the Raptors that year that ended up?

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:13.960
<v Speaker 2>That was the Raptors year? Right?

0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 1>No? I think Golden State one that year? No, right, No,

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that was the Raptors year that twenty nineteen

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 1>that was the Raptors. Was the Raptors.

0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you guys would have smoked the Raptors.

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.040
<v Speaker 1>We would have beat the Raptors for so.

0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so you have a place in your heart for Harden.

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:31.239
<v Speaker 1>I do. I do, no matter where, Like it's for sure,

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's just this is incredible.

0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Man, second greatest rocket of all time.

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, I mean I put Jason McGrady up there too,

0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.520
<v Speaker 1>like because Tracey mcgra McGrady was what who got me

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:45.400
<v Speaker 1>into basketball?

<v Speaker 2>Like would you put McGrady over yow?

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Yes? Yeah, point just because I just enjoyed watching him

0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>play just offensively. He was just such such a force. R.

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Gredy's like the kind of player who, like the just

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:00.240

<v Speaker 2>I can only imagine. Yeah, then you had yow shout

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:27.360
<v Speaker 2>outs at yao ming man.

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah man, that would We were supposed to win that

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.040
<v Speaker 1>year too. Like it was just a crazy team man.

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:35.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, talk to me, man. Obviously you know what

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I appreciated. What obviously got got a I think what

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.479
<v Speaker 2>kind of sucked a lot of people into check you

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 2>out was like just the level of first of all,

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 2>the big Dogs record was fire, but just the visual

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:50.800
<v Speaker 2>was so crazy. And then this new video that you

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:56.560
<v Speaker 2>have is even crazier, Like what is your thought process

0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:59.039
<v Speaker 2>the creative process to these visuals man like and.

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:04.159
<v Speaker 1>Hmm, see I have I'm blessed to have a team

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:06.600
<v Speaker 1>of folks that always tries to push the envelope and

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:10.159
<v Speaker 1>whatever we do, right, I think the process is like

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>just being open and receptive to as much and whatever

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.120
<v Speaker 1>it is that we feel when it comes to what

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:20.560
<v Speaker 1>it is we're making. Right. My boy Bitjoy, who's the

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 1>director of everything I do, He's just a visionary, so

0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:26.039
<v Speaker 1>he comes up with a lot of craziness and I'm

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the one who, like who figures it out if we

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:30.960
<v Speaker 1>can actually do this or not, you know what I mean?

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>And that balance is just found because visually there's just

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:36.599
<v Speaker 1>so much you can do man generally like and you know,

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.279
<v Speaker 1>like music is just a great medium if you're trying

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.560
<v Speaker 1>to communicate when it comes to sound right or visuals,

0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:44.960
<v Speaker 1>but as of late, visuals has just been kind of

0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:48.720
<v Speaker 1>just dying down right, no one percent paying attention to us.

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Russ had an interviewed recently, maybe like two years ago now,

0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.600
<v Speaker 2>where he was talking about like the ROI on like

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:57.919
<v Speaker 2>music videos just isn't what it used to be. But

0:06:58.000 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 2>I feel like if you do it the right way.

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean I don't we couldn't give I didn't

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 1>give ship about ROI. For me, it was like we

0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 1>just loved doing it right. It was so important because

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, if I'm getting to make music and make

0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.680
<v Speaker 1>videos and like live off of that and I'm gonna

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>have a ball the time when to put.

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Mailed it in on the Big Dogs video, it might

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 2>not have I mean, it's a great record, but I

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 2>feel like the visuals as important as the music.

0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>It leaves an impression, right, I mean it just because

0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you can see how much you can see

0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the intensity of how what I was going through during

0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>the shoot. And I feel like other people that a

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>motorcycle wild enough. I couldn't get on the motorcycles whether

<v Speaker 1>like that many days though? Too much? Was that one night,

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 1>two nights shoot that was one day one day. Yeah,

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't be in that for two days in a row.

0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 1>That's that's demanding for su Yeah. Yeah, we got through

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>it though.

0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:56.400
<v Speaker 2>And then uh, for you, is it cool to kind

0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 2>of see like the the TikTok virality of that.

0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we don't have TikTok in India, so it

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 1>was all based off of Instagram and what we're hearing

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 1>is happening on it. So you're like, oh, I heard

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 1>it's going like yeah, I'm hearing about things and it's like.

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 2>TikTok in India? Is it because they got a China

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>thing going?

0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah, yeah, it's just this just wow.

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys have your own like is there because

0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:21.720
<v Speaker 2>I know, like, uh, certain countries will have like their

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 2>own version of apps, Like is there is there something

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>similar out there that's like just.

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I think most people just use Instagram and there's like

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man, is there anything else?

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Nor YouTube?

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? I mean of course YouTube, but I think YouTube

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.840
<v Speaker 1>is just like its own thing. Yeah, shorts came recently,

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 1>right right, and yeah, but YouTube's always been consistent. Man,

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 1>It's always been a force in India.

0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Right Yeah. I feel like it's the number one music

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 2>consumption app in the world worldwide. It is in the States,

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 2>it's probably Spotify or whatever, but worldwide.

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.439
<v Speaker 1>Like everyone means YouTube. Yeah, I mean even if it's

0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:57.800
<v Speaker 1>not music, it's my algorithm is so fire at this point,

0:08:58.000 --> 0:08:58.760
<v Speaker 1>just like what's.

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:00.320
<v Speaker 2>In the algorithms, just like if you.

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Open basketball and also like some philosophy and its just

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:07.079
<v Speaker 1>just random, random shit. The music, tons of it, right,

0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>just visuals that I enjoy and breaking down music. Man,

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:12.600
<v Speaker 1>just so much cool shit.

0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:14.640
<v Speaker 3>So you're a big basketball head.

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean as much as I can be on

0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>that side of the world. The timings are.

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Terrible sometimes, Yeah, what time you have to watch a game?

0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:22.440
<v Speaker 1>Like six four in the morning, six in the morning

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're trying to catch it live. And you know,

0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:26.160
<v Speaker 1>if you don't catch it live, it even if you

0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.000
<v Speaker 1>don't see that, you can do the settings on the

0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>NBA app to like all right, you don't see the score.

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:31.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to see the score.

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:35.240
<v Speaker 1>But if you're not really watching it live, it just

0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have the same feeling, you know what I mean? Right,

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 1>And it always somehow like you open up your phone

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 1>and just like some something or something has popped.

0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Up the open Instagram or Twitter. You're like, oh man,

0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 2>why I mean yeah, yeah, when I'm a big wrestling fan,

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 2>like I was, purposely usually I'm busy when pay per

0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:53.240
<v Speaker 2>views are going on, so I'll purposely try to stay

0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 2>off my phone. Yeah, but it never it never works.

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, I hear this wrestling is popping off as

0:09:57.720 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 1>a late but the thing is, like I stop watching

0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:01.520
<v Speaker 1>a while, but I was really into it too. But

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>then yeah, you know, right when Johnsena was like picking

0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 1>up and it was just his era was like full swing,

0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:08.560
<v Speaker 1>is when I kind of just repeed it up.

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, uh, from attitude era to I've been.

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Watching since I was like twelve, so I get that.

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh maybe younger, fuck yeah, younger. Yeah. Yeah, it's very

0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:19.719
<v Speaker 2>it's a niche. I mean, it's blown.

0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Up though, it is. I hear, I hear. It's having

0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.320
<v Speaker 1>a renaissance. It's having its own.

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.240
<v Speaker 2>You guys have like, yo, what's crazy? Is like in

0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:28.959
<v Speaker 2>like Netflix in India's held a different in Netflix here.

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, absolutely, Like I'll use the VPN and sometimes

0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 2>I just select random countries just to see what kind

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 2>of good ship, you know. I'm like, damn. Sometimes it's

0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.839
<v Speaker 2>like shit that's in theaters in the US is already

0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 2>on a Netflix.

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.319
<v Speaker 1>It is. It is, which is sick. But it's also

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.600
<v Speaker 1>like the other way around. Sometimes y'all just get access

0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 1>and everybody's talking about it. They're just giving and then

0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like y'all need to relax because we don't have

0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 1>it yet. But you guys also like in first world

0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:54.680
<v Speaker 1>access even out.

0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:58.360
<v Speaker 2>Here like we'll get like like when because obviously Netflix

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:01.760
<v Speaker 2>has like a lot of or Netflix originals that are

0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:03.679
<v Speaker 2>with Indian.

0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Actors, and yeah, the same if you're trying to tap

0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 1>into some Indian shows, you know, movies and stuff.

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:13.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean the Bollywood industry is so insane, like

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:17.440
<v Speaker 2>it is, man there, Like there's I forget that, I

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.880
<v Speaker 2>watched a documentary about one of your guys actors, I

0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.720
<v Speaker 2>forget his name, but this guy's like Tom Cruise. He's

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 2>like fucking one of the biggest stars on a planet.

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, well paid, man, everybody's getting paid.

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 2>I feel like most Americans, like we only saw like

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 2>slum Dog Millionaire, you know.

0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:33.679
<v Speaker 1>What I'm saying.

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:35.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that shit was fire.

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it was a great movie, but it also

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.760
<v Speaker 1>you know it just if that's the reference, you know,

0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>that's not really it, right, I mean I'm sure that,

0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there's elements, but it's like an overly dramatized

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>idea of India, right, which of course there's a lot

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 1>of problems within the country, but it's also like there's

0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of other things there too, which is what

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 1>we try and show.

0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think it's interesting with any place, right, like you, like,

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:02.800
<v Speaker 2>there's people who think that they're mind made up about

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.400
<v Speaker 2>the United States because they see like whatever homeless problems

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:08.640
<v Speaker 2>like certain parts of LA might have, or they might

0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 2>think everyone's like super fucking racist, and you know, but

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 2>it's like this is a giant country. It's the same

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.200
<v Speaker 2>thing with India. It's like people like might have their

0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.360
<v Speaker 2>mind made up about what India is like, but it's like, bro,

0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:21.040
<v Speaker 2>it's a dynamic place.

0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Like exactly that man, exactly. And the thing is it's

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:27.080
<v Speaker 1>just important, you know, conversations like these are just generally

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>getting people to get out of that bubble. Every place

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 1>makes you get inside your bubble, which is fine, Like

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:34.959
<v Speaker 1>people got to live, you know, it's sometimes you only

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>got to focus on what's important to you, what's working

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:40.679
<v Speaker 1>for you, or what's you know, paying you, getting you

0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:42.800
<v Speaker 1>buy on the day to day and everything else is

0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:44.200
<v Speaker 1>a distraction, right, Yeah.

0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.520
<v Speaker 2>I think it's important too to have like somebody who

0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:50.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of can represent like, you know, what what what

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 2>y'all's country is on, like on the hip hop side,

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's important, man, Like, well, I remember we

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:59.400
<v Speaker 2>obviously where the boys or what was the song with

0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 2>a pajabi seeing Jay Z back in the day.

0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:05.880
<v Speaker 1>M m, yeah, that the jay Z record. That was hard.

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:06.840
<v Speaker 1>It's hard.

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:11.120
<v Speaker 2>That was that hard? Is that guys still rapping?

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, legend.

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I feel like also, people like got to understand, like,

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.160
<v Speaker 2>you guys are like one of the biggest populations in

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the world.

0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:24.640
<v Speaker 1>The biggest right now, the biggest kind of upsid.

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and there's like some places too where it's like

0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:31.240
<v Speaker 2>the population density is insane right where it's like there's

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:33.640
<v Speaker 2>just so many people in like a small space. Yeah.

0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think people just also, I mean this is

0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:39.199
<v Speaker 1>a worldwide phenomenon, but like people come to major cities,

0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, like wherever you are, you're from the village

0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.040
<v Speaker 1>or you're from you know, tier two cities as well.

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:47.280
<v Speaker 1>People come to bigger cities out there and they just

0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.080
<v Speaker 1>hope for a better life. Man. You can see that

0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.959
<v Speaker 1>over here. That's like New York and Lay super populated too,

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean not to the level have it, but then.

0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:57.800

<v Speaker 3>Who are from Odessa, Texas.

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:05.319
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they want to move to Houston and chase the

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.600
<v Speaker 2>limelight and then they end up you know, sipping lean

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:08.880

0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:30.240
<v Speaker 2>like these pigs are They're like vermin. And they also

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:31.680

<v Speaker 2>could be saving a dog. And I mean I'm all

0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:39.760
<v Speaker 2>about saving dogs.

0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:41.200

<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, man, we tried, you know, because the song itself

0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.280
<v Speaker 1>was like the sounds and the energy that it was

0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:14.840
<v Speaker 1>from me, It was was like very rooted with the land,

0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 1>so and you know it has that spirit of like

0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:22.520
<v Speaker 1>you know that we try to showcase individuals and so

0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:26.080
<v Speaker 1>there's just like like you were saying, there's just a

0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.240
<v Speaker 1>lot to lot to the land. So there we try

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:33.520
<v Speaker 1>to depict styles from you know, different air corners, Yeah,

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.840
<v Speaker 1>different areas and that too, like we're limited to however

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>long the video is, right, of course, we're able to

0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 1>do so much. But we you know, we tried it

0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 1>and this is that song that we thought we could

0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:47.840
<v Speaker 1>try because you know, sonically, it's just what drew us

0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:50.880
<v Speaker 1>more to that, right, you know what I mean? So yeah, man,

0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 1>we it was martial arts and there was also some

0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:57.000
<v Speaker 1>like you know, old dancing styles that are like you know,

0:16:57.080 --> 0:17:00.000
<v Speaker 1>rooted in tradition and have a lot of lore behind it,

0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:03.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, so and that's like more specific to South India.

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:05.280

<v Speaker 2>your fan base out there like excited that you're kind

0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:16.639
<v Speaker 2>of showcasing because it's obvious that you have a you

<v Speaker 2>do have the attention of like the rest of the

0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:21.800
<v Speaker 2>world as well with music. You know, they're pretty excited

0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:24.280
<v Speaker 2>you're able to kind of showcase the culture and they are.

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Man, you know, I I'm just like as it can

0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:30.920
<v Speaker 1>be a lot sometimes too, but it's also like.

0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 3>Well, yeah, cause you're like the guide worldwide.

0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:35.280
<v Speaker 1>You're the guy asked for this, you know what I mean.

0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:38.440
<v Speaker 1>And it's also like at the end of it, it's

0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:42.639
<v Speaker 1>like I do have a you know I had I

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:46.640
<v Speaker 1>had the perspective from a lot of other places as well, right,

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.439
<v Speaker 1>So it's just not strictly from the land, which is

0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.480
<v Speaker 1>like a like which is why I try and do

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.119
<v Speaker 1>it the way that I do, which is unique to myself.

0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:58.239
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like there's like so much that is

0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.320
<v Speaker 1>there that you see in art that's going to be

0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:03.119
<v Speaker 1>coming from there as well. You know, hopefully it's just

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 1>to get eyes to more that's happening there, you know

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:07.199
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. Like this is a part of it,

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:08.919
<v Speaker 1>and while I figure out what I'm trying to be

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 1>in my life and you know what I'm trying to

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.040
<v Speaker 1>say overall, you know what I mean?

0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:19.320
<v Speaker 2>When you because when you kind of picture rap name,

0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:23.400
<v Speaker 2>because like I remember when old dirty Bastards started going

0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:25.199
<v Speaker 2>by Big Baby Jesus, he got a lot of like

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.320
<v Speaker 2>what was was it, like, uh, did you get any

0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:30.640
<v Speaker 2>blowback for for your name?

0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:34.080
<v Speaker 1>It's a great question. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah, there's a lot

0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 1>of folks who don't take kindly to the fact that

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:40.200
<v Speaker 1>there's like a sense of spiritualism tied in with the name,

0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. But that's why India is

0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 1>not the same as the rest of the world. Man,

0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Like you have to move carefully if you're doing these

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:50.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of things and so and that's my journey, that's

0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:53.160
<v Speaker 1>my battle to figure out and you know, but yeah,

0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:56.000
<v Speaker 1>you got to be cautious with that. Definitely, we're figuring.

0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:58.159
<v Speaker 2>Out, yeah, like you kind of dealing with it in

0:18:58.160 --> 0:18:58.640
<v Speaker 2>real time.

0:18:58.920 --> 0:19:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a at the end of it,

0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm just I'm just human, man, I'm just a

0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>dude who's trying to make music and you know that

0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:06.480
<v Speaker 1>happy to be the name that that that you.

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Know for people who aren't solidified extremely like a because

0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot of Americans don't understand break down your name

0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:14.840
<v Speaker 2>and just kind of the meaning.

0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, Well, mankind is like a combination of a little

0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:20.520
<v Speaker 1>bit of my world and the rest of the world, right,

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the mankind obviously, butan is like you know, uh, a

0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:30.320
<v Speaker 1>deity and and you know it's a well known deity

0:19:30.400 --> 0:19:34.520
<v Speaker 1>in our from India, right right, and rooted in a

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:36.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of history and law, and so it's like, you know,

0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I just kind of just it was just a combination

0:19:39.320 --> 0:19:43.320
<v Speaker 1>of two things. And and so that's why when you

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>bring out that conversation, you know, people you know how

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 1>you know how it is when it comes to.

0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Certain people are faith. Yeah, here there's people who are

0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:55.359
<v Speaker 2>crazy faith, ye know. And then yeah, there's people are

0:19:55.440 --> 0:19:56.439
<v Speaker 2>kind of nonchalant about it.

0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Conservative side can get very very intense. Man.

0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:00.960
<v Speaker 2>You guys got your own servative side out there.

0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, it's you know, at the end of it, like

0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:07.040
<v Speaker 1>it's a very human thing for sure. Right it's not

0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.040
<v Speaker 1>America and this is the world.

0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:12.479
<v Speaker 2>There's people who are very conservative, especially when it comes

0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 2>to religion. And wherever country you're.

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 1>In, Yeah, it's assault man, Like it definitely. It can

0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:22.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, pull us back a lot. And I don't

0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 1>know these things, these things, I guess they just take

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:27.919
<v Speaker 1>time and it's just a natural occurrence because faith is

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:30.640
<v Speaker 1>something that it's sometimes it's the only thing people have

0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:33.520
<v Speaker 1>get me, like when all else is failed. Because you know,

0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:35.320
<v Speaker 1>the world's been going through a lot as I like

0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I see it in.

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.679
<v Speaker 2>America, especially with the tariffs everywhere.

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Man and that's affecting everybody.

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, you guys are one of our biggest

0:20:42.080 --> 0:20:42.800
<v Speaker 2>trading partners.

0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, And so.

0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:45.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to figure out what's going to happen.

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I wonder, Man, we don't know yet. I might

0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:49.600
<v Speaker 1>not be able to go into the country next time.

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I don't know if that's gonna happen.

0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 2>But I mean, what do y'all. Y'all make a lot.

0:20:53.080 --> 0:20:54.760
<v Speaker 1>For us, A lot, man, I mean we make a

0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:56.120
<v Speaker 1>lot for the world. No, for sure.

0:20:56.200 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 2>It's like one of the biggest like manufacturing countries in

0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 2>the world. It's They'm near India and China.

0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:03.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah. Now That's what I was also saying is

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:07.200
<v Speaker 1>that sometimes during all this, you know, people figuring out,

0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.240
<v Speaker 1>like we have the comfort of having these kind of conversations,

0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:11.080
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of people don't have that. All they

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:13.680
<v Speaker 1>have is faith, Like when all else has failed them,

0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:15.760
<v Speaker 1>at least they know, oh, there's one thing that hasn't

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and that's about that's kind of hard to like navigate around, right,

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Because that's what you mean by like, oh, they're very

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:23.359
<v Speaker 1>serious about.

0:21:23.080 --> 0:21:25.879
<v Speaker 2>This, because you know, that's the only thing you got.

0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:27.600
<v Speaker 1>When the world's let you down and you're like, oh,

0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.760
<v Speaker 1>but there's like I think someone's listening.

0:21:29.880 --> 0:21:32.000
<v Speaker 2>You know. It's inspiring too because you'll see people like,

0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, uh, shout out to everybody who's dealing with

0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 2>what they're dealing with in Gaza. But to see like

0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.280
<v Speaker 2>those people go through this ship that they're going through

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 2>and still have the you know, the resolve to have

0:21:44.400 --> 0:21:46.679
<v Speaker 2>like a bright outlook on the end of it, and

0:21:46.720 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 2>it's like, man, like that's that's it's sad, but it's beautiful,

0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Like to see the people talk and like the kids

0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 2>are still like in and it's just you know, it's heartbreaking,

0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:56.040
<v Speaker 2>it is.

0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:58.160
<v Speaker 1>But at the end of it, when you say kids,

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:00.359
<v Speaker 1>there's just they still got to be kids, right. I

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:02.399
<v Speaker 1>imagine going through that. Imagine what kind of what it

0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 1>will build in those kids for in the future when

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.040
<v Speaker 1>they're like in lifetime, losing people in front of them,

0:22:08.320 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, and being treated that way, Like, how do

0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 1>you think like that will affect them? Right? You got

0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:16.240
<v Speaker 1>his faith? This is just it's just it's terrible, man,

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:17.480
<v Speaker 1>it's super just like.

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is, it's it's it's a it's a sad situation.

0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean yeah, you.

0:22:22.440 --> 0:22:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Know, yeah, hopefully they come to a conclusion as soon

0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:26.240
<v Speaker 1>as possible.

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:28.359
<v Speaker 3>We're in a very crazy space in the world.

0:22:28.520 --> 0:22:33.080
<v Speaker 2>Man. Yeah, absolutely, yeah. So uh. The other guy who

0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:37.800
<v Speaker 2>is very very also a Texas guy, my boy Akash

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:41.679
<v Speaker 2>from a Flagrant. He's he's done a great job of

0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:43.480
<v Speaker 2>using like stand up to kind of like showcase like

0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:45.960
<v Speaker 2>Indian culture. And there's one thing about you guys. You

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:50.280
<v Speaker 2>guys got the wedding thing figured out, Like his wedding

0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:52.679
<v Speaker 2>is insane. And then he was like I was like

0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:55.040
<v Speaker 2>talked about it a little bit and he's like, it's

0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:57.119
<v Speaker 2>just like a like my wedding. He was like, my

0:22:57.160 --> 0:22:59.639
<v Speaker 2>wedding was like a middle of the road Indian wedding.

0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:01.840
<v Speaker 2>He's like Indian weddings like they don't funk around.

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>They like, I mean, if you're lucky enough, you have

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:07.120
<v Speaker 1>a big wedding, right, And I think that that's what

0:23:07.240 --> 0:23:10.800
<v Speaker 1>they like. Families kind of look forward to the bringing

0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:14.720
<v Speaker 1>together a family. I think like there's a lot of family.

0:23:15.000 --> 0:23:17.240
<v Speaker 3>It's such a family oriented culture.

0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, which I feel like, you know, the Western world

0:23:19.800 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 2>has gotten away from you know.

0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean I feel like that's what you'll find

0:23:25.200 --> 0:23:27.080
<v Speaker 1>it here and there, because you see huge weddings that

0:23:27.119 --> 0:23:30.920
<v Speaker 1>are out here too, right for sure, and it just depends.

0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:34.800
<v Speaker 1>It's just like once again, it's just more rooted into

0:23:34.800 --> 0:23:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the culture and traditions of folks no matter where, like north, south,

0:23:38.240 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 1>east west. So they go at it.

0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:44.640
<v Speaker 2>You know what, what what were your parents first thought

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:46.240
<v Speaker 2>when you told them you wanted to do music?

0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:47.920
<v Speaker 1>The fuck is this?

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Because I know Indian parents are pretty serious.

0:23:50.400 --> 0:23:53.159
<v Speaker 1>You know. I mean they can be definitely where my

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:55.639
<v Speaker 1>parents are all school of shit. You know, I was

0:23:55.760 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 1>raised by the cane. But it was I mean at

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:03.640
<v Speaker 1>first it's like, yeah, what the fuck is this? But

0:24:03.680 --> 0:24:06.160
<v Speaker 1>also it's like what are we going to do? Right?

0:24:06.200 --> 0:24:07.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean this guy at the end, they were kind

0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:09.640
<v Speaker 1>of just like if he sucks up, he sucks up. Man.

0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Like it worked out luckily because, like I said, I

0:24:12.119 --> 0:24:14.120
<v Speaker 1>think it's because, like I was, they had been able

0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:15.560
<v Speaker 1>to travel and see the world.

0:24:15.680 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 2>It's like full context.

0:24:17.200 --> 0:24:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm glad they didn't just cut me off. I

0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:21.639
<v Speaker 1>mean because it's like at the end of it, like

0:24:21.680 --> 0:24:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I would have still done what I was, what I

0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do, but you know it is it's for them.

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:30.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like, you know, they don't understand it.

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, right what uh? What kind of inspired like like

0:24:33.880 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 2>obviously growing up in Houston as an adolescent, like was

0:24:36.640 --> 0:24:38.560
<v Speaker 2>that what was was there any like what would you

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 2>say would be your biggest influences hip hop wise? That

0:24:40.920 --> 0:24:43.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of pushed you into the into the culture.

0:24:43.640 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Of course, man, just like the music that was around

0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:48.560
<v Speaker 1>me at the time, Like when the city of Houston

0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:50.960
<v Speaker 1>as well. I think it's just a great place for

0:24:51.040 --> 0:24:53.480
<v Speaker 1>hip hop for sure, so the sounds of the South

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>as a whole, right, but also just like loving the

0:24:59.760 --> 0:25:02.920
<v Speaker 1>art woman going into like you know, just the music

0:25:02.960 --> 0:25:05.760
<v Speaker 1>of the nineties in the eighties and just like listening

0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:07.560
<v Speaker 1>to it properly, you know, and you get just like

0:25:07.640 --> 0:25:11.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of going into it with you know, whatever access

0:25:11.080 --> 0:25:15.400
<v Speaker 1>that we had back then, you know, with our dial

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:16.440

<v Speaker 1>Oh Fire beautiful. I Actually more than the albums, I

0:25:29.320 --> 0:25:32.639

<v Speaker 2>MESSI Bro.

0:25:37.880 --> 0:25:40.320
<v Speaker 3>Chamillionaire's mixtape Run was so crazy good.

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:43.399
<v Speaker 2>Chamellionaire And when we talk about Houston because I know

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:45.600
<v Speaker 2>he's kind of stepped back and he's an investor now,

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:47.400
<v Speaker 2>but I feel like we got it, Like he's one

0:25:47.440 --> 0:25:48.399
<v Speaker 2>of them one if.

0:25:48.359 --> 0:25:51.920

0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:00.200
<v Speaker 1>a great time for mixtapes, man, just music.

<v Speaker 2>that Wayne just took, like on the No Ceiling Ship,

0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:16.320

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:15.440
<v Speaker 2>Mixtape?

0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:30:16.000 --> 0:30:18.360
<v Speaker 2>How many? First of all, how how far into the

0:30:18.360 --> 0:30:19.200
<v Speaker 2>process are you using it?

0:30:19.400 --> 0:30:21.680
<v Speaker 1>We're pretty close to finishing it, you know. I'm just

0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:24.120
<v Speaker 1>like adding little touches and stuff and figuring out how

0:30:24.120 --> 0:30:26.080
<v Speaker 1>to go about it. It's my first like project that

0:30:26.120 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing like this, so you know, I'm trying to features.

0:30:31.640 --> 0:30:33.560
<v Speaker 2>You get still waiting on something to come over.

0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:36.600
<v Speaker 1>The I do? Yes, yeah, absolutely, yeah everything. You know

0:30:36.600 --> 0:30:38.400
<v Speaker 1>how it is when you're making these kind of things, bro.

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 2>It's like, damn, well, will they send this back in

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:41.840
<v Speaker 2>time to make the album?

0:30:41.920 --> 0:30:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Especially because I'm like the time difference is like eleven

0:30:45.160 --> 0:30:47.480
<v Speaker 1>and a half hours. It's like completely the opposite time.

0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:50.400
<v Speaker 1>So but it's just like communication once.

0:30:50.280 --> 0:30:52.040
<v Speaker 2>You cross that to that side of the world. You

0:30:52.080 --> 0:30:55.440
<v Speaker 2>don't realize like, oh, it's already tomorrow. Yeah, if you're

0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:58.600
<v Speaker 2>in the like us, it's tomorrow. So when we fly here,

0:30:58.760 --> 0:31:02.000
<v Speaker 2>we actually like gain a whole gain a day. Yeah,

0:31:02.120 --> 0:31:03.280
<v Speaker 2>it's it's it's kind of nuts.

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:04.680
<v Speaker 3>But when you go out there, you're you. When you

0:31:04.760 --> 0:31:05.880
<v Speaker 3>go back home, you lose a whole day.

0:31:06.280 --> 0:31:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Bro, It's nuts. Like we leave on the fifth and

0:31:08.320 --> 0:31:11.680
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, it's the seventh insane. It's so

0:31:11.800 --> 0:31:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it's so weird, man. And then like again, the amount

0:31:14.240 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 1>of time that it takes you to get out of

0:31:15.760 --> 0:31:16.320
<v Speaker 1>this jet lag.

0:31:16.360 --> 0:31:18.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm just the jet lag is what I have. You

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:19.720
<v Speaker 2>real fucked up.

0:31:19.640 --> 0:31:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Man, I'm sure you felt that after Thailand too, right.

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Dude, going there. I was there for like twelve days

0:31:24.640 --> 0:31:27.480
<v Speaker 2>because I had some business with Wiz out there before

0:31:27.640 --> 0:31:30.880
<v Speaker 2>rolling Loud, and it took me two days to just

0:31:31.000 --> 0:31:34.720
<v Speaker 2>like adjust to the sun being.

<v Speaker 1>here brother.

0:31:47.320 --> 0:31:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, I ain't mad at it, man, And any

0:31:50.600 --> 0:31:52.400

<v Speaker 2>is gonna drop for the end of the year, i'.

0:31:55.200 --> 0:31:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Assument absolutely yeah. Yeah.

0:31:57.640 --> 0:32:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Do you already have other videos shot? Because it's no,

0:32:01.160 --> 0:32:02.400
<v Speaker 2>you don't fuck around with these videos.

0:32:02.440 --> 0:32:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Ain't like you just yeah, but we're working on it.

0:32:05.160 --> 0:32:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you got the concepts, you got the vision boards

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:07.560
<v Speaker 2>and all that.

0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I see. Actually, when you come down to this kind

0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of stuff, you don't sit with like it's whatever comes

0:32:12.520 --> 0:32:14.560
<v Speaker 1>at the moment. Man. A lot of it just comes.

0:32:17.000 --> 0:32:18.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, the song will be ready and we'll be

0:32:18.520 --> 0:32:21.200
<v Speaker 1>sitting with it. But it's only when you really intently,

0:32:21.280 --> 0:32:24.959
<v Speaker 1>kind of intentionally go after an idea for it that

0:32:25.080 --> 0:32:25.600
<v Speaker 1>it comes.

0:32:25.840 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 2>Would you ever do movies?

0:32:29.600 --> 0:32:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:32:30.320 --> 0:32:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I feel like you, I mean yeah, or direct

0:32:33.760 --> 0:32:34.680
<v Speaker 2>someone else's video.

0:32:35.000 --> 0:32:39.640
<v Speaker 1>I've been in these headspaces and conversations for for some time, man.

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:41.480
<v Speaker 1>But also it's like one of those things where I'm

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:44.080
<v Speaker 1>just like, I'm just at the space of just like

0:32:44.440 --> 0:32:46.640
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to music, to just figuring this out.

0:32:46.880 --> 0:32:49.440
<v Speaker 1>But I think these things also come naturally with it.

0:32:49.560 --> 0:32:50.560
<v Speaker 1>It's art at the end of it.

0:32:50.640 --> 0:32:52.600
<v Speaker 2>So for sure, what was it like linga will rocky

0:32:52.760 --> 0:32:56.640
<v Speaker 2>and that had to be kind of cool, also insane, visionary, amazing.

0:32:56.840 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, initially we were talking about doing a video when

0:32:59.040 --> 0:33:02.600
<v Speaker 1>we had had conversations in the beginning, but also we

0:33:02.760 --> 0:33:05.280
<v Speaker 1>just knew with the time and everything, it just wasn't.

0:33:05.400 --> 0:33:07.000
<v Speaker 2>And around that time, I think he was kind of

0:33:07.000 --> 0:33:08.040
<v Speaker 2>the thick of his thing, you know.

0:33:08.320 --> 0:33:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. It's also like the song had been out for

0:33:10.560 --> 0:33:12.960
<v Speaker 1>a long time, so it's like, we shoot a video

0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:14.160
<v Speaker 1>will take time as.

0:33:14.000 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, right, so it's like by the time the video,

0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:17.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean exactly, it's.

0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:20.719
<v Speaker 1>Like then it's like, bro, what is this big Dog song? Bro?

0:33:21.440 --> 0:33:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:33:21.920 --> 0:33:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Tired of it?

0:33:22.680 --> 0:33:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Also, like, you know what I loved about this about

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:28.080
<v Speaker 2>your about Big Dogs was it was like an untraditionally

0:33:28.160 --> 0:33:29.000
<v Speaker 2>structured song.

0:33:29.240 --> 0:33:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, very much.

0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:33.480
<v Speaker 3>So it was like you heard the intro.

0:33:33.680 --> 0:33:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the intro, but like the song is like it's

0:33:36.600 --> 0:33:39.280
<v Speaker 2>like it's it's just a thing, like it's it's not

0:33:39.320 --> 0:33:41.160
<v Speaker 2>like a traditionally structured record.

0:33:41.440 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's my perception of music.

0:33:43.120 --> 0:33:45.360
<v Speaker 2>Which is which is I think is incredible because it's

0:33:45.400 --> 0:33:49.440
<v Speaker 2>like you know, the it reshapes. I feel like there's

0:33:49.440 --> 0:33:51.720
<v Speaker 2>certain records like that that like reshape what like a

0:33:51.800 --> 0:33:52.400
<v Speaker 2>hit could be.

0:33:52.720 --> 0:33:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, absolutely, man, because you know that intro bit

0:33:56.280 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 1>when you you know of the song is what people

0:33:58.320 --> 0:34:00.560
<v Speaker 1>think is the hook. That's not the hook, right, The

0:34:00.600 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 1>hook is later in the song, and people usually like

0:34:02.880 --> 0:34:04.000
<v Speaker 1>ye up with the hook first, and.

0:34:04.000 --> 0:34:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like Doci's Denial is a River is like an

0:34:06.360 --> 0:34:08.319
<v Speaker 2>example of a song that's like such a big hit,

0:34:08.360 --> 0:34:10.759
<v Speaker 2>but there's it's just a dope record stuff.

0:34:10.840 --> 0:34:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeaheah. Absolutely.

0:34:12.320 --> 0:34:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Is there anybody anybody you'd like to work with in

0:34:14.480 --> 0:34:16.319
<v Speaker 2>the States that you haven't been able to connect with

0:34:16.360 --> 0:34:18.239
<v Speaker 2>quite yet that you're just a fan of, just you know,

0:34:18.520 --> 0:34:20.520
<v Speaker 2>just like, man, I really appreciate what you got going on.

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean there's quite a few, man. Doci's one

0:34:23.120 --> 0:34:24.160
<v Speaker 1>of them. I think she's amazing.

0:34:24.200 --> 0:34:25.000
<v Speaker 2>She's fucking fire.

0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:28.239
<v Speaker 1>You know. There's some who I have been in touch with,

0:34:28.320 --> 0:34:32.680
<v Speaker 1>like a Jid or del Carraz. Yeah, yeah, amazing, man.

0:34:33.280 --> 0:34:34.480
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to hear his album.

0:34:34.800 --> 0:34:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Yeah, he's yeah, he's always cooking man. Yeah, he's

0:34:39.000 --> 0:34:42.560
<v Speaker 1>so good poet for sure. Yeah, and this is a lot, man.

0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:44.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I think it's a it's such a cool

0:34:44.960 --> 0:34:47.879
<v Speaker 1>space for music, you know, as a whole over here

0:34:48.520 --> 0:34:50.080
<v Speaker 1>and just seeing it from now outside, Like I mean,

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:52.080
<v Speaker 1>now we have access to everything, right, so it's like

0:34:52.640 --> 0:34:56.319
<v Speaker 1>everyone's paying attention, and it's just about trying things out. Man,

0:34:56.600 --> 0:34:57.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm what to it?

0:34:57.520 --> 0:35:04.600
<v Speaker 2>What is the general consensus? I'm just curious for our

0:35:04.640 --> 0:35:06.799
<v Speaker 2>politics out here over there.

0:35:07.239 --> 0:35:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, I mean I think this is just

0:35:10.239 --> 0:35:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean my perception of it, right, And I'm not

0:35:12.800 --> 0:35:14.000
<v Speaker 1>like a politician.

0:35:13.719 --> 0:35:15.400
<v Speaker 2>Right right, right, I'm just curious, like what the like

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:17.279
<v Speaker 2>what folks over there are thinking about? What the fuck

0:35:17.280 --> 0:35:18.480
<v Speaker 2>we got going on over here?

0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? No, because I think because of the way that

0:35:21.120 --> 0:35:26.120
<v Speaker 1>America is positioned, right, y'all are like, for better or

0:35:26.120 --> 0:35:28.719
<v Speaker 1>for worse, y'all are like the leader of the free world, right,

0:35:28.760 --> 0:35:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and you know this right has developed over time and right,

0:35:32.120 --> 0:35:34.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, conquering and being who you are. Right. But

0:35:34.840 --> 0:35:38.000
<v Speaker 1>then because of that, whether it's India or anybody else,

0:35:38.040 --> 0:35:41.480
<v Speaker 1>everybody's watching. They won't like Indian politics are going on,

0:35:41.680 --> 0:35:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Japanese politics are going on, China everything, But y'all, no

0:35:44.719 --> 0:35:48.280
<v Speaker 1>one's really paying attention like they're paying attention to America.

0:35:48.400 --> 0:35:48.680
<v Speaker 2>For sure.

0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:50.359
<v Speaker 1>I think y'all need to be very aware of that.

0:35:50.520 --> 0:35:54.160
<v Speaker 2>And we're the number one consuming country of goods. But

0:35:54.239 --> 0:35:57.160
<v Speaker 2>like you said, it's like people are paying attention to

0:35:57.200 --> 0:36:00.000
<v Speaker 2>what we're doing, and like when we do certain things,

0:36:00.200 --> 0:36:03.240
<v Speaker 2>it's when you start having countries pushed together together like bricks,

0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:06.640
<v Speaker 2>you you know, and it's like it.

0:36:06.719 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Is you got to understand, right because and typically when

0:36:10.440 --> 0:36:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you think about when you think about civilizations in the past, right,

0:36:15.120 --> 0:36:16.880
<v Speaker 1>all the great ones at the end, they'll get to

0:36:16.920 --> 0:36:21.320
<v Speaker 1>the top, and they're the ones their only downfall.

0:36:21.000 --> 0:36:22.359
<v Speaker 2>Is themselves themselves.

0:36:22.719 --> 0:36:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Right when they don't have other enemies to go against

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:28.400
<v Speaker 1>our other issues, you start looking inwards and you eat

0:36:28.440 --> 0:36:32.000
<v Speaker 1>yourself alive. Right, Actually, y'all have it amazingly good. Like

0:36:32.040 --> 0:36:35.160
<v Speaker 1>we come from third world countries outside and you see

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:37.960
<v Speaker 1>how amazing like things can be. Right, but then you

0:36:38.040 --> 0:36:40.880
<v Speaker 1>look at it and then and it's crazy dramatic, like

0:36:41.000 --> 0:36:43.480
<v Speaker 1>of course it's also entertaining, right, you know, I mean,

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 1>see what's going on, and it's this is grab popcorn eating.

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:48.760
<v Speaker 2>But you have like we go from like a guy's

0:36:48.760 --> 0:36:51.080
<v Speaker 2>like half dead and finding a genocide to a guy

0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:53.160
<v Speaker 2>who's you know, wants to finish the genocide and it's

0:36:53.200 --> 0:36:53.880
<v Speaker 2>all bright orange.

0:36:53.920 --> 0:36:56.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's a free Palestine man I'm just saying, like,

0:36:56.920 --> 0:36:59.560
<v Speaker 1>at the end of it, right, you think about you

0:36:59.640 --> 0:37:03.839
<v Speaker 1>think about it, and it's not I don't think it's

0:37:03.840 --> 0:37:06.719
<v Speaker 1>just an Indian thing. I think everyone's just viewing it

0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:09.160
<v Speaker 1>and just being like there's a lot going on. And

0:37:09.239 --> 0:37:11.239
<v Speaker 1>also like y'all have a ripple effect because everything, like

0:37:11.239 --> 0:37:12.960
<v Speaker 1>you're saying, with the tariffs and everything, everything is like

0:37:13.040 --> 0:37:18.319
<v Speaker 1>affected afterwards. So we'll see, yes, I mean, and we

0:37:18.400 --> 0:37:23.439
<v Speaker 1>will see too, like we watch everybody watch.

0:37:21.880 --> 0:37:24.879
<v Speaker 2>Its like we're the fucking and like it's season one

0:37:24.880 --> 0:37:25.560
<v Speaker 2>of succession.

0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:37.880
<v Speaker 1>and the rich. You must understand that, Like it's just class.

0:37:38.040 --> 0:37:41.279
