41
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: start it out, to set the tone. Man, who's the

42
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 4: hardest artist? Say Toven, I ever worked with Gucci?

43
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: That ain't hard? What you mean?

44
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 3: Oh wow?

45
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: Okay you just said damn Yeah, Like, why you gonna

46
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: that ain't nothing? That was a lot of hard artist.

47
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: Though I worked a lot of hard.

48
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 5: Hard Topci is hard to make Gucci the hood. Well,

49
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 5: if you think about Zaytoven music or zay Toove and sound,

50
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 5: it comes from making music for Gucci.

51
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: Right. This is before I was anybody.

52
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 5: And I used to remember, like when we're in the

53
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 5: studio and I make a beat, it don't matter to

54
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 5: beat trash or it ain't, it's undone. Gucci instantly gonna

55
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 5: go do a song to it that might turn into

56
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 5: but that's a song that just changed your life. That's

57
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 5: a song that's like created the sound that you have today.

58
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 5: So just I don't know. I just think the chemistry

59
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 5: men and Gucci. You know, God is just unmatched. So

60
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 5: he always gonna be my favorite. He was my favorite

61
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 5: back when people didn't like there, like.

62
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,560

00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 5: like turn that out. Yeah, I'm like robust so hard,

66
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 5: So ain't nobody hard.

67
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,760

00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 5: where everything started. All the artists that even artists not

Speaker 5: every day.

76
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 6: So your mama's basement was bigger than rap.

Speaker 7: And it's so crazy because it's like, you know how

83
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 7: sometimes like when you go to a studio or you

84
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 7: go to a place where you're making music and you wondering,

85
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 7: like especially like when you're like a rap artist, you're wondering,

86
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 7: like are you gonna run into somebody that I don't

87
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,120

89
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 7: I don't feel like singing or whatever? But it was

90
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 7: like in your mom's basement. It was like a like

91
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 7: a cultivation in safe space. Like even if I did

00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,160

95
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 7: We're finna be happy and made the music and then

96
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 7: when we get down.

97
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 6: The street, we're gonna get it on.

98
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 7: But this here, like this ain't that and I can't

99
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 7: do that today, Like people have that level of respect

100
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 7: for you to know like they're gonna respect you and

101
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 7: your space and wherever you are until after they get

Speaker 2: We never had no issues ever. Yeah, the basement.

105
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 6: And think about how many niggas have been in your

00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 6: mama's basement.

107
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 5: Man, it used to be called wrapped around. I'm surprised

108
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 5: that people ain't called the police.

109
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 2: Yes, so many people.

110
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 5: That ain't nothing but the Holy Spirit just covering the

111
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 5: whole place. Cause it's like, but it's so many street

112
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 5: guys just coming here, and I'm letting anybody come, I'm

113
00:04:59,120 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 5: talking about I don't even know.

114
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 2: Oh bro, he got fifteen for a beat, come on here?

115
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: You know all that. But you know, I think that's

116
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: what it really was.

117
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 5: And and oncen't I will say Gucci being Gucci, that

118
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 5: he's like the main artist over there all the time.

119
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 5: People respect the Gucci in a certain type of way,

120
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 5: so they feel like, you know, bruh, Gucci is like,

121
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 5: ain't nobody finnna mess up what's going on over here too,

122
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 5: So you know, all that combined, I think it's why

123
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 5: it was so special.

124
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, what already shocked you from that from from your

125
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: era like that you were working with you, you know

126
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, cause you work with everybody.

127
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 3: But then he end up shocking, like man, this nigga Ashley.

128
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 2: Everybody did, but like Gucci shocked me.

129
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 5: I thought going to the lever bro with Gucci man

130
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 5: and playing the music, that was like, that's the best

131
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 5: you get.

132
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 2: I ain't know it get bigger than that.

133
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 5: When I seen Gucci with Mariah Carey and I'm like,

134
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 5: but this dude that was at my house every day,

Speaker 5: calling me every morning, you know what I mean. I

136
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,200

137
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,000

Speaker 1: So what you think it was that made you stay

211
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: like relevant all this time, like eating yourself and cause

212
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: your sound is still similar to then to now, but

213
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: it's still resonate with every every generation.

214
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 2: It ain't similar, it's the same.

215
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,679

217
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 5: It's like I be making you know, I make beats,

218
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 5: and I tweak from what I did back in the day,

219
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 5: but other people. The reason why my sound is still

220
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 5: relevant to this day is because younger people still mimic it. Yeah,

221
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 5: they still making I'm like, bro, they made the exact

222
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 5: same beat.

223
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 2: That's that's my beat, right making that right you know,

224
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 2: right now?

225
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 5: And so it's so relevant, which is a blessing for

226
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 5: me as well, because it makes.

227
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: Me relevant originator. I'm the originator.

228
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 5: So it's like they know when you hear that music,

229
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 5: you don't think about no producer but all that they

230
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 5: told me.

231
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know, it's like a trigger. That's what

232
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 2: it is. So it's it's a blessing. A lot of

233
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 2: times it can make you be like, dang, bro, why

234
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: would you do? Why are you taking my whole?

235
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 3: When do the mimic in your beat turn into disrespect?

236
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 5: I think a lot of guys I don't think they

237
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 5: mean disrespect.

238
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 2: I feel like.

239
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 5: They know the artists want this or you know, a

240
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 5: lot of times artists have come to me like Brank

241
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 5: a lot when I first even Migo said that when

242
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 5: when we first start rapping, we tell our producer just

243
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 5: made me.

244
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,959
Speaker 2: They tod and beat, you know what I mean.

245
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 5: I've been on panels where I've been with other producers

246
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 5: where they be like Bro, I'd be so mad because

247
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 5: like even though Zay to sin right here, artists will

248
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 5: come to me and say, Bro just made me some

249
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 5: beats from Atoven Beats, and they're like, Bro, hold on,

250
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 5: I ain't gonna make this man beat I'm gonna produce, Well,

251
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,680

252
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 5: make right up, straight up, so you know, and so

253
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 5: I don't a lot of times I don't think it

254
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 5: be disrespect. I just feel like that's what they want

255
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 5: to make. I'm make some Jatoven sound and beats and

256
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 5: it ended up being something special or something big, and

257
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 5: I definitely don't have no problem, especially when it comes

258
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 5: back around like Okay, they told we got to give

259
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 5: you a piece of this because it's really your music.

260
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: What about when the artist just he's Atoven now, like

261
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: you know, how something produces.

262
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,480

263
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 5: Listen, that's cool. That's cool until something blow up. Then

00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: he came out the basement too.

301
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: Like just like a rapper.

302
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 5: It's almost like anybody I'm working with, like like say,

303
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 5: with cash Is, I'm promoting them as man, it's the

304
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 5: best producer in the world, you know, and he was

305
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 5: and he is good. But I'm saying, you know, that's

306
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 5: how promoted. That's how to promote any artists I'm working with.

307
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 5: And so to see somebody like him and he did

308
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 5: a song with Cardi B or he did you know

309
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 5: this and that, and they just let me know that

310
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 5: you know, my ears working, you know what I mean,

311
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 5: all the artists that I've seen blow up. The only

312
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 5: reason I've been around for so long is because everybody

313
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 5: I worked with they with nobody when I was working with,

314
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:17,920

Speaker 2: Straight up.

383
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 4: You talk a lot about you know what I'm saying,

384
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 4: like people that you inspired? But who were you inspired by?

385
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 4: Coming up?

386
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: As they told few people I was as far as

387
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 2: like music, yeahcers mainly producers.

388
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 5: I would say DJ Quick definitely. I don't know MCA producers.

389
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 5: I know he kept shotting out either DJ Slip or

390
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 5: Hawking Bird. I don't even know who his producer was,

391
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 5: but I just remember listening to his music so much

392
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 5: that it's like, bro, whoever making them beasts?

393
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: They crazy?

394
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 5: And I listened to my music today and I think

395
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 5: about how I play the like Jazzy Pianos on the beats.

396
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 5: How I use certain flutes and violins, that's what they

397
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 5: used back then. I wasn't making beats trying to emulate

398
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 5: what they was doing. But subconstantly I think I was

399
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 5: just making beats and like ooh, this flute sound good,

400
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 5: or this this piano run feel good. And it was

401
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 5: off of listening to that music back in the day.

402
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 3: Did you ever doubt your skills?

403
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 2: I ain't.

404
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 5: Never thought i'd be who I am today. I never

405
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 5: thought I was really that good. I used to matter

406
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 5: of fact, I used to go to the studio, you know,

407
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 5: where people playing beats and all that, and I hear

408
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 5: other people being like, Brian.

409
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: Ain't gonna play my beat behind not behind that are.

410
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 3: Lower than that.

411
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 5: It wasn't that it made me. I always felt like

412
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 5: I wasn't good enough, Like I ain't as good. Like

413
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 5: I'm a church musician. I'm always going to churches where

414
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 5: the musician, the other musician, he way better than I am.

415
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 5: So I got to start trying to find like how

416
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 5: can I how can I stand out? How can I,

417
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 5: you know, be seen or heard? So I just had

418
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 5: to use different styles. I remember when I used to

419
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 5: play beats in the studio, and I felt like I

420
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 5: wasn't good enough. I go spend all my money on

421
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 5: the chain and third coach and come back and play

422
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,680

Speaker 3: So?

475
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,880

00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 5: kind of wanted to work with.

509
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 2: To be honest with you.

510
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,439

00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,080

514
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 5: I don't listen to nobody. I don't know nothing about

515
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 5: everybody else until I work. Well, yeah, and it might

516
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 5: be like like, I don't know. I ain't saying I'm hating,

517
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 5: but it's like, bro, I do want to hear that

518
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 5: junk until.

519
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 2: I work, until I work with NASA. But that's the hardest.

520
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 2: Hey man.

521
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 5: It don't matter how on how big he is, how

522
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 5: much you're telling me, how much, how good he is.

523
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 5: Hey man, I don't hear that now. When I worked

524
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,719
Speaker 5: with him, you got to hear it.

525
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 2: He the truth.

526
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 3: How I feel like working with USh he's double back

527
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 3: to that.

528
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 5: But you got to think back in high school, the

529
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 5: girls used to be like, oh, you look like Usher.

530
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: You know that was my draw card back.

531
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: In the day, you know what I mean?

532
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 5: So to work with Usher, you got I think the

533
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 5: first time I worked with him, it was for papers,

534
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 5: and the song with Number one, But I never met him,

535
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 5: I never really talked to him. So for us to

536
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 5: get in the studio and do a whole project together,

537
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 5: it was an instant bro Soon we got in the studio,

538
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 5: we were kicking it like brother, you know, and we

539
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 5: enjoyed just working with each other.

540
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 6: So that's like, I'm sorry not to cut you off.

541
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 7: So, like, speaking of that, what's the difference in the

542
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 7: process between like working with somebody possibly virtually or just

543
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 7: doing the song and sending it and then they do

544
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 7: it as opposed to actually having that in studio chemistry.

545
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 6: Do you think that that.

546
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 7: Makes the song better or like, how do you think

547
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 7: that affects the outcome of the project?

548
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 2: I think it has a big effect.

549
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 5: And you know, once you in the room as a producer,

550
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 5: when you in the room with the artists, you have

551
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 5: more influence.

552
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 2: You can tell them what you know.

553
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 5: A lot of time artists looking for you to tell them, well,

554
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 5: what beat?

555
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 2: What beat you think I need to rap on? Which

556
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 2: way I need to go?

557
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 5: So I think that, uh, that brings a big difference,

558
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 5: and to some artists it can be intimidating, Like, man,

559
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 5: I don't even want him to be around some people

560
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 5: may make me feel like, Bro, you you too much

561
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 5: of the gold.

562
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 2: I don't even want to rap while you right here.

563
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 5: I'd be like, for real, you feel like that I'm

564
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 5: talking about big artists have been like that, and you're

565
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 5: just like brother, hold on, bro, I'm in here with it.

566
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 5: I'm nervous because they are here, Like, Bro, you super big?

567
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 5: How you nervous because I'm here. I've been doing But

568
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 5: I think it still makes you know, makes for the

569
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 5: better song, a better project.

570
00:24:58,320 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 6: Yeahah, I think so.

571
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 5: So that cook up, Yeah, the cook up, just the

572
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 5: presence of just being around each other. I think you

573
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 5: know it makes you want to go hard and makes

574
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 5: you want to impress the person.

575
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 3: So what's the fastest you did the whole beat? Record time?

576
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 5: Man, I don't be counting that with you that but

577
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 5: I don't be counting a lot of that stuff is

578
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 5: off impulse, and you know it's just being spontaneous. Like

579
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 5: if you're in the room and I'm making a beat

580
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 5: for you and I know you're excited to rap, I'm

581
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 5: just putting some sounds together.

582
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm doing.

583
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 5: I don't know what it's finna sound like I'm just

584
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 5: putting some sound together and I know you ready to

585
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 5: go wrap. So if it took two minutes, it's because

586
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 5: the artist was they pinned with.

587
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 2: It, man, like you ain't done yet.

588
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like I ain't started you put the.

589
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 5: I won't never get a chance to do that. I

590
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 5: don't never come back. And you know I always felt like,

591
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 5: well I just come back and mess with it later.

592
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 5: But after you hear the song, it's like they don't

593
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 5: need nothing.

594
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: It suck like tw twenty second, like she's done it,

595
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: done it done, it's the it's Gucci really, that's what

596
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: he the one got me on that because he used

597
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: to come over.

598
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 5: He wanted to make ten songs in a day, so

599
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 5: you ain't got time to try to make the song

600
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 5: to beat extra pretty.

601
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 2: Or extra life.

00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 5: He like say this hard listen, I'm ready you like,

Speaker 2: Man, that's a hard already loder, I'm ready.

606
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 5: And once you once he recorded to it and you

607
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 5: listen back to it's like, well, I'm glad I didn't

608
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 5: add nothing else because it probably wouldn't miss the song.

609
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 4: Up you feel like something some of them artists don't

610
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 4: like their voice is an instrument to as a lot

611

00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 5: You know what, And I had to say, I had

904
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 5: to say, my little brother Amos because he was the

905
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 5: first guy that I seen that I worked with that

906
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 5: I've seen. It's like, you know, he used to rap

907
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 5: at church, but he used to wrap at new Birth,

908
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 5: and this is when new Birth was packed out. I'm

909
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 5: talking about thirty thousand people that this man go up

910
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 5: here and rap these songs that I made the bat

911
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 5: fo no background vocals or none of that I'm talking about.

912
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 5: He's saying a lot of words and rapping a whole story.

913
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 5: But I was just remember just sitting back in the

914
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 5: back of the church, like, but this dude is amazing,

915
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 5: Like this is a real start. But that's my first

916
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 5: time hearing my music being played, you know, in a

917
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 5: sanctuary or somewhere that big that everybody's jamming to it.

918
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 5: So that had a real big influence on me, you know,

919
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 5: just seeing that.

920
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 2: That's before Gucci.

921
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 5: So those people, the people I named, they took personal

922
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 5: time with me, whether at church, Let me show you

923
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 5: how you play this chord, Let me try to play

924
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 5: this song. I take you back home and practice it

925
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 5: all night. But you know they'll put me on the

926
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 5: organ when I don't know everything yet. But you're finna learn,

927
00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. We're gonna put you in

928
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 5: front of everybody to you know this, how you're gonna

929
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 5: get good. And those people took personal time with me

930
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 5: and helped shape and mold me not just my musical talent,

931
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 5: but character as well.

932
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:12,919
Speaker 2: They said, anything else.

933
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 1: What you think your strongest point is the keys of

934
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: the drum.

935
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 5: I think it's both. I think it's put together because

936
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 5: my drums ain't the best and my keys, and people

937
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 5: think I'm just super amazing at the keys, but I'm

938
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 5: just okay. But I think when you put them together,

939
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 5: that's what makes it special.

940
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 2: I think.

00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 2: And I don't think it's just music.

1096
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 5: I think lifestyle and character mean something to the people

1097
00:48:59,160 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 5: that I'm around.

1098
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, even Gucci.

1099
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 5: I feel like Gucci is a totally different person than

1100
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 5: he was back when we was you know, one music, sure,

1101
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 5: and I you know not. I'm not trying to take

1102
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 5: credit then like that, but I feel like I can't.

1103
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 5: I'm a positive you know, inslance for sure, because when

1104
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 5: Gucci used to talk about me, that's all he talked

1105
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,399
Speaker 5: about is the characteristic of me. Man, Jay Tobin boy,

1106
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 5: he don't drink, he on smoke, he don't. I'm like, Gucci,

1107
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 5: ain't why you saying all that? You ain't got to

1108
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 5: tell nobody all that. But he was bragging on me

1109
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 5: even though we totally different.

1110
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 2: Exactly, you know what I mean.

1111
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 3: So he's showing that he getting inspired.

1112
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 2: By inspired by that. Yeah.

1113
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 5: So I feel like that, and I feel like that's

1114
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 5: I feel like the reason why I'm still around, the

1115
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 5: reason why I'm Jay Toven and the credibility is there

1116
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:45,760
Speaker 5: is to help influence other people.

1117
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 2: Other people might look at me like I want to

1118
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:48,959
Speaker 2: do Toby.

1119
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 5: I want to be Toby. I want to do it

1120
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 5: like that. You know, I don't want to come in

1121
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 5: I got to be how all the time to make music.

1122
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 5: I gotta do this and that.

1123
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 4: So yeah, So you've always been comfortable in your own

00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 4: skin from they want to forever like pressure.

1125
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 5: I've been comfortable, but people like Gucci made me more

1126
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 5: comfortable because because they brag about you know, sometimes you're
