It's like, um, they invented the plane, right, 32 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: and every plane that they invented they believed in so 33 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: like feverishly, and they were like, this is the plane, 34 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: and it goes up and the bitch comes crashing down 35 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: and you're like, damn, fam can I get one?

See if I'm 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: the niggative invented the plane, this is actually my original design. 40 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: And I went through twenty other iterations just to go 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: back to the first. You love that like breaking all conventions, 42 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: like was a singer the way you dressed? Like do 43 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: you love that part of it that, like you knew 44 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: from jump that you use somebody is just gonna shake 45 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: it up and you're not really trying to fit into 46 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: a box and like challenge, challenge what views are, what 47 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: what a rap star music stars should look like? And absolutely, yeah, 48 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: I believe. Look, I believe that the only way to 49 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: make impact is to make impact. Indentations and impressions have 50 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: to happen. I live and I see the world the 51 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: same way I've always seen the world. But I'm the 52 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: guy I've always wanted to be. That's a fucking miracle, 53 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. A lot of people are 54 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: in positions that you might um think of wonderful you 55 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: you might celebrate, but they're they're not on their own 56 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: a court that sounds like I'm in church right now. 57 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: They're there. But why do you think you're able to 58 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: have that so strong when you see so much of 59 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: the opposite. You see people literally struggling with fame, struggling 60 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,839 Speaker 1: with finances. Everything plays out depression, you know, it gets 61 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: so expressed in the music. Why do you think you've 62 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: been able to like you almost countering that in a 63 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: sense of like, I think I've just been deliberate. I'm 64 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. I don't know from extra 65 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: special have extra special conditioning. I think I just decided 66 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,839 Speaker 1: nothing else fit me. It didn't wear. I couldn't wear 67 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: that as well as they could wear that. For instance, 68 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: I can't be you better than you can. I'm really 69 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: good at being myself, so I figured, if I'm really 70 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: great at being myself, why not be that. So when 71 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: I saw that you're really great being yourself as l 72 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: A read man, you signed with Hitko, but wasn't like 73 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: working with you know, such a legendary you know guy 74 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: in the game, those meetings like those L A read 75 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: meetings a legendary. I think we have a we have 76 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: a unique relationship where we just I mentally respect each other. 77 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: He's done so much, he's done so much for the culture, 78 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: black music, and listen, you don't even have to say 79 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: anything so that you don't have to top that off 80 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: with a Chevy. That's just what it is. So to 81 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: be in the same room with someone that has such 82 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: a tremendous legacy and they're like, I think you're special, 83 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: that's read you know what, because it was instant when 84 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: you play l A your music and the way he'd 85 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: be vibe into your music. What was that like us 86 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: not see he has, he dances, he does, He's just 87 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: being a he likes it. Wasn't familiar with some of 88 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: the records. He may have been I think one of 89 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: two records. And then because no one had heard Collection one, 90 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: no one knew all the types of things that I 91 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: would be able to do, all the types of songs 92 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: i'd make, you know, I put out Roses and I 93 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: put out reflex in three below, and those were like really, 94 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, specific samples i'd be probably didn't know I 95 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: would do a record like selfish or you know, something 96 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: that's introspective, like God Bless the Internet. So him hearing 97 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: the length and breath of it, like the whole body 98 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: of it, that was really impressive to see because it 99 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: was somebody that had no idea what was going on 100 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: from the inception, just sort of thrown just taking apart 101 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: just by music in a new way that he hadn't heard. 102 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 1: I heard you got too Lit last night. I see 103 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: the I G is always popping.

But I 169 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: didn't understand with that because most of the pea sound good. 170 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: What do you mean by that? It was no, no, 171 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: no to be I said, to be a SoundCloud to 172 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: be a great SoundCloud rapper, you have to be able 173 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: to turn down every bad beat or something like that. 174 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's just yeah, the provocative nature of you know, 175 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 1: poking fun at that because you know, some of that 176 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: beats are terrible, some of them. Some of them it's 177 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: just awful, like god awful. Right, But there's even though 178 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: it's a child too, I gotta swing to it, And 179 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa fam do you even know how to 180 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: use this software? It's like he's pressing all the keys 181 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: at the same time I rap on it. That's be 182 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: a fantas. How do you sud how do you decide 183 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: what you're gonna hop on? Because here it's like no 184 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: to St John's song sound alike? Almost Yeah, I build 185 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: them from scratch, so we we build everything from scratch. 186 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: So I worked like almost exclusively with this producer named 187 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: Falling and when I'm in the studio, it's it's army drill, 188 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: practice this again every day, like we never did it before, 189 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: Like none of our songs are good. I'm like, I 190 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: don't care what happened yesterday. Let me hear it, and 191 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: we're starting from scratch, and I'll write or create from anything, 192 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: cause I'm just all I'm looking for is magic, fan 193 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: any creative is looking for. It's like that sparkle, the magic, 194 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 1: and you find it and you stretch it out and 195 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: you turn it into to entire campus. So I'll start 196 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: with I might just hear drums. It might just be 197 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: a simple loop, like really unimpressive loop. But if I 198 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: can hear it in my head, I'm not gonna articulate it, 199 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: then I can build around it. So i might do 200 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: a melody, and then I'll say, put this synth line here, 201 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: and they'll change the cynth line, they'll change the way 202 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: I approach it. So everything is customed. What do you 203 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: get out of performing? Because I saw he's obviously just 204 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: sets down here that my a. But I saw something 205 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: you said he was like in two countries and and 206 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: he was on the outside show and got caught in 207 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: the pouring rain before. Yeah, so I did just this 208 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: past week, like right before my birthday. I was in 209 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: Germany and Amsterdam on the same day, right, So I 210 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: did two festivals, Encore Festival in uh in Germany and Amsterdam. 211 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: I did hype actually still reverse anyway, there were two 212 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: hours apart from one another. Literally. So I went on 213 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: the stage in Amsterdam. First, it's pouring rain. It's pouring rain. 214 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: And the act who went on before me, they murdered it. 215 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: Everyone was going off. The crowd was enormous. I got 216 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: on stage, and because they just started pouring rain, nobody 217 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: was built to prepare for it. There were fifty people 218 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: on my stage, right, that's a fact, right, And I 219 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: won't alter my life or just it. I'm really here 220 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: in this present moment. However it happened, how it happened 221 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: was documented. I'll tell you the whole story. Fifty people 222 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: at the set, but I didn't make that made no 223 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: difference to me. I was here in a place where 224 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 1: I've never been in my whole life. I dreamt about 225 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: moments like this. I don't care two of y'all. When 226 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: your grandmother showed up, I hope she will. Yeah, she 227 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: got off a pedic song because it's about to get lit. 228 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: So I went in. I just I never performed in 229 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: the rain. I didn't hang back under the hanging I 230 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: was outside. I was in the ray was pouring on 231 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: all of us, and the rain started to slow down 232 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: and it got enormous and it was more people in 233 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: my eyes because set back out. Yeah, but I got 234 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: off that stage five minutes after. I was in a 235 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: car driving to Germany. I got off the two hour 236 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: drive right as soon as I got off stage. Five 237 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: minutes later, I was on the next stage. So I've 238 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: never done that before. Two shows, two countries, two hours apart. 239 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: Like I'm not even making up these numbers. It's real, 240 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: like it's just hopping. And I went in. I did 241 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: it again. I care. I just perform it for me. 242 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 1: It's a different outlet. It's the expressive portion of the art. Right. 243 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: You make the music and I internalized it, and I'll 244 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: make it for myself or I make it for you, 245 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: depending on how I'm making it, and you get to 246 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: hear it and it's audio format and then I could 247 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 1: give you the fucking televised version. It's different. It's like 248 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: a screenplay in person where I can tell you the 249 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: story of it, because no one. You don't know the 250 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: origins of records, right, You don't know that I might 251 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: have written like selfish, which I wish we were both 252 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: somebody else so we wouldn't be somebody else's. You know, 253 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: I wrote that about some girl and I'm a friend 254 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: with and she can't be with me because I'm in 255 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: a situation, and I can't be with her because she 256 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: got a long term situation. But I can tell you 257 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: when I'm on stage, I can tell you where it 258 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: came from, or reflex, and I was that moment a reflex. 259 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: I was in Fallen's bedroom.
