You put out three 97 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 3: projects this year so far? 98 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 4: Yeah so far? You got another project? Yeah, I got 99 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 4: another one, So all right? Why are you putting out 100 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 4: so much music? 101 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 3: Most people take the approach where less it's more, but 102 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: they put out one project every two years. One project 103 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 3: that you're putting out. You don't feel like that's saturating 104 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 3: the market. 105 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 6: Nah, definitely not because it's you know, with that type 106 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 6: of approach, it comes with bigger budgets, right, And that's 107 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 6: one thing I didn't have. I had the big budget 108 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 6: to three million dollars to spend on one project and 109 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 6: blow it out, you know what I mean. And then 110 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 6: also like I got so many thoughts and I didne 111 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 6: lived so much life, and like I could just explain 112 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 6: a feeling and a thing to the t, so well 113 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 6: it's like why not, you know? And then another thing 114 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,239 Speaker 6: outside of that is naturally. 115 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 5: The streaming and the leverage and all that. 116 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 6: So I stacked the projects to use leverage as my value. 117 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 6: So now I'm worth a few million because of all 118 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 6: of this music, you know what I'm saying, as opposed 119 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 6: to me doing one project and then you know, running 120 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 6: around complaining, I ain't nobody fucking with it, that's your valuation. Yeah, yeah, 121 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 6: I'm not into complaining. I'm into making it happen and 122 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 6: figuring it out. So that was pretty much the best 123 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 6: route for me dealing with you know, the opportunities that 124 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 6: I had, you know what I'm saying, And so I 125 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 6: got to I got a laptop, I gotta interface, I 126 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 6: got a mic, I got producers. Let's get busy. Let's 127 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 6: build this value up. And then the most important reason 128 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 6: why I do it is like all my favorite artists 129 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 6: that I fell in love with dropped a lot of music, 130 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 6: whether it was mixtapes before the album, Wayne Gz, Game, 131 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 6: Wiz Spita, you know what I'm saying. All these people 132 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 6: that I love and brung me into their lifestyle, and 133 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 6: I took pieces of they shit and live with it, 134 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 6: you know what I mean. 135 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 5: So my whole thing is like, at the end of 136 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 5: the day, influence. 137 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 6: So I know that with my music, if it don't 138 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 6: happen while I'm here and alive, it's gonna happen when 139 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 6: I'm gone. I'm an influencing entire generation, you know what 140 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 6: I'm saying. And I'm creating a whole new lifestyle, a 141 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 6: subculture within the culture. 142 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. 143 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, five hundred million streams, that's a lot. You're building 144 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: that valuation up took about the process of doing it independent, 145 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: like you spoke about Wayne, right, and you spoke about 146 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: the influence that the all money and team. That's a 147 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 2: and combo, right, because we watched these guys grow up, 148 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 2: and we watched Nip through it from an independent standpoint, 149 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 2: and we watched Wayne put out the product. So I'm listening, 150 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: it feels like there's a merger of both those those 151 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: influences in your life. 152 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: About the independent route that you've taken. 153 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 6: So the independent route. I was signed to a label before, 154 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,239 Speaker 6: so I started off independent with the same mind frame 155 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 6: and just understanding how a label operate. I need a 156 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 6: digital team, I need PR I need certain things, you 157 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So when I signed, I already 158 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 6: had my I didn't even realize I had a label 159 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 6: of my own, you know what I'm saying, Because when 160 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 6: I signed, it was the same thing. I gonna hire them, Yeah, 161 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 6: it's the same shit. The only thing that changed was 162 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 6: my output. Now now I got to go explain while 163 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 6: I'm necessary and what I mean to the culture. You know, 164 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 6: it's different when you walking in the office and people 165 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 6: not in the streets, they not feeling the culture. They 166 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 6: on a computer, you know what I mean. So it's different, 167 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 6: and that was a struggle. But like just being independent, 168 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 6: I got the freedom to decide I want to put 169 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 6: out a project.
