I just 31 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: don't understand it, and I don't want to do something 32 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: for my audience that doesn't make sense. If I can 33 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: make it makes sense for me up here, then I'll 34 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 1: do it. But I just don't understand it. Bro, Well, 35 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: you know what, I think you do a great job 36 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: of that I don't do a good job of.

You got your music, but I always feel 39 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: like you do a great job of balancing family and work. 40 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: You got to how did you figure it? Like that's 41 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: not an easy thing to figure out how to do? Like, 42 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: how did you? How do you do that? So? Well? Well, 43 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: I just know that like at the end of the day, 44 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: our kids only know what we teach him. And you know, 45 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: like I just I really love my kids, I love 46 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: the family, and I just try to That's like, actually 47 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: the balance I need to keep going because as spread 48 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: then as I am, bro, like, I'll burn out sooner 49 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: or later. So like it's good to like be able 50 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: to just turn the phone off and just focus on 51 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: family and people respect it now in my circle, when 52 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 1: I'm with the kids and when I'm with the fam, 53 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: they just know that it's the balance I need to 54 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: keep working like this. It's stuff to work like this, bro, 55 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: super super draining, Nah dude, especially like however, you figured 56 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: out how to keep everything going while it's also kind 57 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: of being off the map during COVID because for people 58 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: who don't know you were kind of you was duck 59 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: ducked off up North. They're ghosted during COVID, But yet 60 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 1: you were still making shit happen, Like there were still 61 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: grand openings happening, and you know of cookie stores all 62 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: over the country, like we did new music. We you know, 63 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: kept a clothing rocking. I think that at the end 64 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: of the day, like COVID was a big test mentally 65 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: for people to see like can you keep it cracking? 66 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Can you keep your sanity? 67 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: Can you? And it's tough, man, Like we took the 68 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: precautions before we sat down, you know, And that's the 69 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: way I move it now. Like I got eight tests 70 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: in my backpack, you know, each test kit got too. 71 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 1: If I see this one, they got to take a test. 72 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: I think it is the best most responsible thing to do. 73 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: Whether it's accurate or not, it's a good peace of 74 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: mind because we can't treat people like geranis man. It's 75 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: just like it's getting weird. So for me, that's been 76 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: the best. Like now that the tests are more available 77 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: at Walgreens and whatnot, I've been able to move around 78 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: a little more. But yeah, COVID was rough, bro, and 79 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: I just bought a house and the cuts and just 80 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: chilled out for as long as I could. And I 81 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: think that like it really like let people understand life 82 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: is precious and you got to pick your circles, you 83 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Yeah, you've been extremely cautious with 84 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: the COVID shit, a lot more cautious than some of 85 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: your counterparts maybe in the hip hop game, right, Like 86 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: what what's the motivation? Behind that. I mean, my uncles 87 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: died from two of them, and like you know, I 88 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: look at my texts every other day to remind myself, 89 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: you know, he was just fine like me and you were, 90 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: and then was like I'm going to hospital and then 91 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: from the hospitals like yo, they're gonna put me on 92 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: this machine and die. And so it's like it happens 93 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: like that, you know what I mean. And so I've 94 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: seen a lot of people struggle for it, and I 95 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: think that people that lost people to COVID, it hits 96 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: a little harder, hits home. My Grammar died man exactly, 97 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: and so like you know, I've just been bro. I've 98 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: always been paranoid though, but that's why, you know, I'm 99 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: always worried. That's why I've never been you know, never 100 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: been to jail. I never. I've always moved a certain way, 101 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: and I think that's what got me where I'm at. Bro, 102 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: just being cautious, but at the same time, like understanding, 103 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: you still got to move, you know what I mean, 104 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: So just move right. Yeah, that's real. I think, Uh, 105 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: it's been a weird like unfortunately, like COVID, I feel 106 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: like also as originally I feel like it was politics 107 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: that was dividing people, and that kind of leaked into 108 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,799 Speaker 1: COVID dividing people. I believe COVID is a way bigger 109 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: agenda than what we see it as right now. It's 110 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: it's a very big agenda too, in my opinion, and 111 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: we won't dive into it too deep, but I feel 112 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: like it's an attack on you know, US as as 113 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: a civilization, but also like US as America too. I 114 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: think they're trying to cripple our fucking our economy and 115 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: just us as people. You have to understand COVID is 116 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: more of a mental thing than it is anything. It's 117 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: really like, when you get COVID, you're by yourself. You 118 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: have to isolate, you have to sociate. It's like just 119 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: fucking with your head elo much. And the way I 120 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: look at it now was like, all right, look, my 121 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: kids are back in school. I'll take the risk for that. 122 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: I mean, let them go back to school, let them 123 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: enjoy their life, let them chill with their friends, let 124 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: them play sports. If I'm gonna get this shit, I'm 125 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: gonna get it from the house, but I'll take the 126 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 1: precautions when I'm out and about. For sure, got too 127 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: let's go back burn like, you know, for people who 128 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: don't know where did you start at when it comes 129 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: to making music and getting into the weed game from 130 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: the jump, Yeah, and I mean music. Always been a 131 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: fan of music, and that's why I still make it. 132 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: I don't make music because it makes me better. I 133 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: don't think I'm the best musician. I'm a fan of it. 134 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: I love to put records together. So I start off 135 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: musically by battle rapping and frisco at this coffee shop 136 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: on Hate Street.

And then from there I 141 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: met some cool producers, and you know, I had an 142 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: a track at the time.

Yeah, And 332 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: I think too, like just some of the like collabse 333 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: and like the licensing, like when you guys do like 334 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: the Scarface line or the Good Fellows line that just 335 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: came out sick, Like it's always on point. And some 336 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: of the next ones we have coming are going to 337 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: shock the fuck out of people. Like some of the 338 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: ones that we've locked down is incredible. Like I can't 339 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: even believe we got it. Wow. Okay, and then on 340 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: the cause you know, I do feel like you don't 341 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: get it for whatever reason, you don't get enough respect 342 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: on a lot of fronts. Yeah, I like it though. 343 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: I like that shit. As a rapper. You're I think 344 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: you're the hardest working rap. I mean, I don't know 345 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: people who have an output like you. There's very few people, 346 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: maybe the Griselda guys, who are putting out as much 347 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: albums as you do every year. Forty plus albums out 348 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: right now. I feel like it's three for a year 349 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: automatic and I own the catalog, so it's like, you know, shit, 350 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: it's right there. That's a whole nother animal too, you 351 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like the rat money is good too. 352 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: I don't even be flexing that ship, but the rat 353 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: money is good too. Yeah, Like everything goes away. If 354 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: you just had your rat money, you'd be living nicely. Bro. 355 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: I can honestly live and raise my family off the music. 356 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: And that's the funny thing is Oh, he's just a 357 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: wee guy, or he's just just cook that school. You 358 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: can say all you want, but shit, the rat money's 359 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: cool too. I mean twenty joints is gold or platinum? Gold? Yeah, 360 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: it's my only gold. Well that and uh, I think 361 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: I'm on that's the only song I have that one go. 362 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: I think Elchievo should be getting close, but that's gotta 363 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: be close. Yeah. I never got a gold album though. 364 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: That's my that's like my bucket is before I die, 365 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: I got to get a gold album. I mean, I 366 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: feel like over time, one of your albums has got 367 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: to get there eventually, Like, what is your biggest album 368 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: as far as like numbers wise, Like I think I 369 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: think the biggest album number wise is probably it got 370 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: to be. Like I think packs did really well. Packs 371 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: are probably my favorite. Packs did really well. Dude. Back 372 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: in the days when you could sell physical CDs, the 373 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: below albums with MESSI, Marvel did Hello Good too, Shit 374 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: went crazy bro, Like I was selling like fifteen thousand physicals, 375 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And then whatever the streaming 376 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: side was. So I don't know. I mean I think 377 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: that like I like being an underground artist. So because 378 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: you have to understand, like mainstream artists, they get a 379 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: song on the radio and then as soon as they 380 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: come off the radio, they say they fell off. Right 381 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: if you look at my music career. If you're looking 382 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: at business, it's only gone like this every year. Now. 383 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: I've never shot up. I've never had a straight home run, right, 384 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: but I've elevated every year. So if I get a 385 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: record that hits hits, I got forty two album catalog 386 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: to back that up. So well, that's I was gonna 387 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: ask you. You really don't have like a and I 388 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: don't know if any things changed, but you don't really 389 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: have like a manager per se. Right now, I don't 390 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: have a manager. I don't even have a booking agent. 391 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: I actually shout out to Bobby d Uncle Snoop's army. 392 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: He's been booking me. Yeah, but I'm really just I'm 393 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 1: a sick fuck keV. I like to be hands on 394 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: with everything. Bro, wasn't gon say? Because I feel like 395 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: you've had records. I feel like you put a bag 396 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: behind a record once. I think it was the Busy 397 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: Body record or what was the record that you put 398 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: a back behind a record? Was it? The one with 399 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: this was like three or four years ago and I 400 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: got mad as it didn't work? Which one you got mad? 401 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: And I told you, Bro, you hired the wrong guy. Yeah, 402 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: I think it was a busy body record, bro. But 403 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: I feel like you've had records that, like, especially after that, 404 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: like records of a boogie records with G records. I mean, 405 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: you've had some crazy records that. I mean, there's the 406 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: one with two chains Whizz Cameron and fucking someone else 407 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: that should have been should have been out of here, 408 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: like I just should have been gone, bro. But I 409 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: mean all in a Day was all and day should 410 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 1: have been gone too. All in the Day. I mean 411 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: that's old, you know, but that's a lot older. You know. 412 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 1: I think that Latino artists don't really get the props 413 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: they desserve. Bro. It's weird. It's weird, like it's weird. 414 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: It's really weird. Like it's hard to break through, bro. 415 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: But I don't even try to understand this shit no more. 416 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: I prefer where I'm at, Like I see some of 417 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: the mainstream artists and I look at some of the 418 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: deals they're in and some of the things they have 419 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: to deal with, and they don't own their music. Like 420 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm happy where I'm at. I feel like you get 421 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 1: to kind of do what makes you happy in the 422 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: music industry without having to worry about all the shit 423 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: that makes people hate this shit because you're just doing you. 424 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: There's no pressure. There's no pressure. You built your own world. Yeah, 425 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: I'm good. I mean we're down the street right now 426 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: knocking down some shit, bro, and the music sounds. It's 427 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: probably the best body of work that I've ever created, 428 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: and there's no pressure. Yeah. I mean, you know, you've 429 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: always came through the clutch with some great collab projects. 430 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 1: I think my favorite collab album you've ever done is 431 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: probably the one with Mazi. Yeah. Man, I think that's 432 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: front to back. That's probably top three project of years 433 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: for me because you know what, like the energy in 434 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,479 Speaker 1: there was like it was like the best energy as 435 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: far as like, like I was vibing off him, he 436 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: was vibing off me. Made me set my game up. 437 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: But my beat selection is crazy, bro, Like I'm like 438 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 1: an underground Cali. When he comes back, I was gonna say, 439 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: you got that Rick ROSSI are low kid, Yeah, I 440 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: got I got that good ear Low when he comes 441 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: down beats and putting artists on beats, they usually on 442 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: wrap two like, and that's why maybe I'm in the 443 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: position i'm Matt because I'll get a big artist and 444 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: put them on a sample beat instead of like trying 445 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: to go big. But I don't want to fucking go big, 446 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: Like I don't want to be on the fucking radio. Bro. Yeah, 447 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 1: what is uh like? And you know there's been this 448 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: project with Wiz that we've gotten teased over for. Yeah, 449 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: I think it was supposed to come out like two 450 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: or three Christmases ago, like six years ago, yea with seven. 451 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I know you guys probably got 452 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: a ton of records in the cut no one's ever heard. Yeah, 453 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: they're sitting there, you know. I just when the time 454 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: is right, he'll let me know. And even if he 455 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: wants to drop it, I'm down. And I think that, 456 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 1: you know, like there's a lot more records to make. 457 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 1: And I mean me and Wiz make great music, dude, 458 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: like I have. I have a really good year for 459 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: beats when it comes to him too, Like I feel 460 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: like I pick really good records like with him, you 461 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like I love and then we 462 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: bring like a certain kind of energy out of each other, 463 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: Like when I pull up on him to the studio, 464 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: like he'll bust out a different style that he ain't 465 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: really been using. When it comes to stuff that we do. 466 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: So I feel like when the Me and Whiz album 467 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: happens's gonna be powerful because we've been sitting on it 468 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: for so long. So you know, when the time comes, 469 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: I think people will be fired up. Who do you? Uh? 470 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: Is there any talks of you doing any collab albums 471 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: or anybody else? Right now? Seems like we get one 472 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: a year or so. Yeah, you know, me and Rose 473 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: are supposed to do one like a small EP like 474 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: probably three to six songs. That's gonna be fire, you 475 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like I can't wait for that. 476 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: I've been actually saving like a lot of mental space 477 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: for that. Like if you notice this year, I drop 478 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: less albums this year than I ever had because I've 479 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: been waiting for the Rose album. And then me and 480 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: Azuna are doing like a project. It's not a it's 481 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: not a Goop album. We'll probably have like two or 482 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: three records together on there, powerful ones, but we're gonna 483 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: use like our both of our reach to put together 484 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: like sick ass projects just kind of based around the 485 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: brand we're building. So you know, other artists from Latin 486 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: America from here just create like a sick ass like 487 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: almost like a compilation but more like a maybe this 488 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: will be like an annual project like every other year 489 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: or something like that. You and Ross. Ross is somebody 490 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: who I feel like has also kind of laid the 491 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: blueprint on how to be a successful entrepreneur. One of 492 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 1: the easiest best partners I've ever worked with. I mean, 493 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: he's one of the hardest working, smartest, easiest partners I've 494 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: ever had, straight up. Yeah, because you've obviously collaborated with 495 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: a lot of artists on the on that side of 496 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: the game, right And I'm sure sometimes it's a little bit, 497 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: you know, things haven't worked out sometimes, And I'm sure 498 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: you know, some people are just scared to use their 499 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: platform to promote the shit you're working on. Like Rose, 500 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: he's getting on Instagram, He's pushing that shit. He's not playing. 501 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: He's a businessman. And also he understands the long term play. 502 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: You know, my advice to a lot of people out there, 503 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people are looking for that money right now. 504 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: They want their money right now. What can I get 505 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: right now? There's power in building equity, you know what 506 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean, Like when I look at equity and cookies alone, 507 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: Like the weed side, we talked about the clothing side. 508 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: We look at the weed side we're getting. We're gonna 509 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: get there for sure. Yeah, So I know what my 510 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: equity is. I'm not I only take a small salary 511 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: from Cookies to weast side. I get like a salary 512 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: that's almost laughable when the type of shit I do. 513 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: But the equity is there if I ever want to pull. 514 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 1: So he understands that long term play. And that's why 515 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: me and Rose work so good together because he knows 516 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: we're building something that's super long term. Especially when we 517 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 1: open up Cookies Florida. His brand's gonna dominate out there 518 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: because he's been such an easy guy to work with, 519 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: and we take that in the back of rad right cool. 520 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: When we open up Florida, we're gonna have four hundred 521 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: thousand square feet of indoor cultivation. I'm gonna put this 522 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: shit in heavy rotation. We're probably gonna make it store 523 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: dedicated to his brand, Collins ab fully decked out with 524 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: his logos everywhere. Like, I just appreciate the hard work 525 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: and the vision and the long term play because there 526 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: is a big exit, you know. Yeah, let's let's get 527 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: Let's let's kind of tap into the weed shit a bit. 528 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: Like I said, man, you are underappreciated, under respected in 529 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: this game. I always tell everybody Burner is rich than 530 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: all of the rappers, like you know, and I don't 531 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: even I don't even try to think like that. No, 532 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: but I listen. I'd be having arguments about fuckers for 533 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: you when you ain't around, and I'd be like yo, 534 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: like legit. And I'm not saying no names, but I 535 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: don't know anybody in hip hop outside of maybe fucking 536 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: doctor Dre or some shit, maybe Diddy. You know, maybe 537 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: you know the guys we think of, and these are 538 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: more executives at this point. But when we're talking like, 539 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: I don't know anybody who's who's fucking with you when 540 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: it comes to net worth, buddy, at this point, well, 541 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: if you look at like cookies, clothing, cookies, cannabis, if 542 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: you look at Vibes papers, Vibes is on a crazy, 543 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: crazy run, crazy traction, Like I get anxious think about that, 544 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: and you think about like equity and weed maps, and 545 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: you look at stuff like Gepen and San Cruz Shredder, 546 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: and you know things that people forgot I have my 547 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: hands in, Like there's a crazy ecosystem of very valuable 548 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: companies and it's kind of spooky sometimes, man. I just 549 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 1: you know, I heard listen to me, I heard a 550 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: rumor that that cookies was offered, uh pretty much to 551 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: get bought for like close to a billion dollars and 552 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: you guys turn that down. Is that true? Yeah? No, 553 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: we get crazy offers all the time. Someone was just 554 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: sitting down with us recently trying to get us to 555 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: go take our shit out on the Canadian Canadian stock 556 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: Market and whatnot. And the numbers there talking about there 557 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: if we went out, like it's crazy, and I just 558 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: like the way I look at is like that shit 559 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 1: ain't real. I just keep my head down, keep trying 560 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: to focus on you know, how do we keep this 561 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: shit running? I don't even think, because if you focus 562 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: on the numbers too much, you'll get caught up in that, 563 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: you'll get comfortable. I'm never comfortable. You know. We had 564 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: we had this ship set up at new and I was, 565 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: I text you, hell early, can we do earlier? Yeah? 566 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: I mean, like course, because I always work bro I 567 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: and I think I got that from my pops, you 568 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, I just never really focused 569 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: on it. But to get to your point, yeah, the 570 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: network is probably pretty pretty powerful right now, and I 571 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: don't even know when or how that's going to happen. 572 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: Knocking on a billion, yeah, probably, I think so, I 573 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: think so. I mean I don't really know. I mean, 574 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: I know cookies is I know next time we raise 575 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: money for cookies going to be in the multiple billions. 576 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: So just look at that like that. Well, I mean 577 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: it seems as if too, like anytime there's a new 578 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: market that becomes legal, there's like three cookie stores that 579 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 1: open in the state straight up. And then you got 580 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: Lemonade too. Yeah, and Lemonade is another brand that your 581 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: sister brand. Yes, you don't want to overwater every you know, 582 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: hell of cookie stores, you know, cookies like Nike town 583 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: almost right, But we came with the sister brand, Lemonade, 584 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: which is killing it too. And I mean, it's just 585 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: it's crazy to think about how much more growth there is. 586 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: I mean, there's Latin America, there's Europe, and you and 587 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: Ozuna are doing something in Puerto Rico, right Puerto Rico. 588 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: There's the East coast. We didn't even hit the East coast. Yo. 589 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: I was town man. We were just talking about New York, 590 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: me and my boys, Like YO, when New York. When 591 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: the Cookies hits New York, Oh my god, it's about 592 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: to go crazy. And I think the best thing about 593 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: our company is that we have such a good team 594 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: of breeders and we're menu planning out for one hundred years, 595 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: not right just right now. I got so much genetics 596 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: in my hands right now, from all the breeders that 597 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: we have in house and the ones that we collaborate with. 598 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: I kind of treat it like beats. I'll sit down 599 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: with the breeder we do a breeding project. I'm gonna 600 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: pick ABCDFG right, boom, I'll take these. I'll tell them 601 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: just keep them at least a couple of year or 602 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: whatever it is. But we have so much genets that 603 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: we're planning out for one hundred years. So you know, 604 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: we're doing really cool shit right now where we'll film 605 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: it and be like, yo, it's twenty twenty one. I'm 606 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: sitting here. It's like a Mexican chocolate I did with Body. 607 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 1: Shout at Body, C's we're gonna take this.

You know, I'm 630 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: a lot more serious. So we're planning out and that's 631 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: my main thing, is, like I don't get caught up 632 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: in the numbers of what Cookie is doing. I'm getting 633 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: caught up in how do I keep the shit sustainable 634 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: for a long time. I want to be one hundred 635 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: year brand. I don't want to be a brand that's 636 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: right now. I want to be popping later. As you know, 637 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: we had a couple of interactions with a weirdo out 638 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: in Arizona, trying to make some stuff happen out there. Yeah, 639 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: but I've realized that in the weed game there's a 640 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: lot of fucking weirdos involved. There's a lot of emotions involved, 641 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: and a lot of ego, a lot of ego, a 642 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 1: lot of emotions, a lot of a lot of hay. 643 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: I mean, people will try and knock what I do, 644 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: and I tell him like this, I work with hundreds 645 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: of partners and operators. It's the hardest thing ever to 646 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: do what we do. Yeah, because for people who don't know, like, 647 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: not all cookie stores are the same, right, It's not 648 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: like you have to partner with people. It's a very strategic, 649 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: unique model. I said, like this, look and going back 650 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: to raising money, the reason why we turned down that 651 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: that eight hundred mili back in the day is what 652 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: was mostly stocked. There was a good upfront. Don't get 653 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: me wrong. There was a lot of cash, but most 654 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,120 Speaker 1: of it was stocked. But I decided to raise small, right. 655 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: I raised twenty million bucks and I'm still working off 656 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: that same twenty million dollars from that interview, and we 657 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: stretched it and turned this shit into a fucking empire 658 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: wocause we decided instead of going out and buying assets 659 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: and building from the ground that would take too long, 660 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: life short, take a lot of let's go identity and 661 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: take a lot of money, which means a lot of dilution. 662 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: That's why my network is high, because I kept my 663 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: equity right. So what we did decided to do was 664 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: let's go around the world. Let's go around the country 665 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: and find the operators that are killing it right now, 666 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: right with their stores that they have going right now, 667 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: or with their girls they have going right now. Let's 668 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: do a partnership with them that's very rich in their 669 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: favor for right now, right and keep the majority of 670 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: the money coming in right now. But we get a 671 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: roll up option on their stores, We get a purchaser 672 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: store in the future, right, we get a small rip 673 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: on percentage, and we get to have creative control of 674 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: their operations. So you empower a great grower in New Jersey, 675 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: give them their exit plan, you give them, you give 676 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: exactly provide with exit plan, but you empower their knowledge 677 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: and their skills. I would rather work with a bunch 678 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: of talented people than have to build everything for it 679 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: would take too long. Yeah, it takes It's a lot. 680 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: So our business model was find incredible operators from here 681 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: to wherever we're going, empower them, give them our genetics, 682 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: give them our SLPs, make sure we have a great 683 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: team on the ground to oversee the operation and build right. 684 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: And it's worked fucking incredible. It's for people who don't 685 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: know it's it's it's similar for people who aren't really 686 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: into into the weed game. Would you say it's similar 687 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: to kind of like a franchise model, Nah, it's different. 688 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: It's like, but you guys get to cure your rate. 689 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: Who gets that carry pick like I'll go I'll go 690 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: to Massachusetts for example. You're not going to just let 691 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: anyone get the cookies brand. It would be over. It's 692 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: quality control involved. To go to a market and you 693 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: find the best cultivator, the best operator, and you go 694 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: look at all them and what they're doing before they 695 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: even think about partnering with you, and you you cherry 696 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: pick the best and you form a partnership with them. 697 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: You pick who's going to do it. So it's it's 698 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: almost like a franchise idea, but totally different, except for 699 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: you guys get to pick because you're not gonna jeopardize 700 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: the brand because when we think of cookies, we think 701 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: of the best weed in the world. Yeah, no, it's 702 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: it's really cool. So it's kind of like a franchise, 703 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: but way different because no one could just come to 704 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: us and say, hey, we got one hundred grand, let's 705 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: let us get not It doesn't work like anybody can 706 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: open a Quiznos. You can't open the cookies. You guys 707 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: have to. It's got to be a mutual choice. Have 708 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: you had a situation where you had a partner and 709 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: it just didn't ended up working out, or maybe they 710 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: ended up maybe fumbling, or what happens that happens to everything. 711 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: I think that we've done a really good job when 712 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: finding partners, just like picking, because I've been in this 713 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: for a long time. But you identify me and you 714 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: had a similar situation we talked about. You identify things 715 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: right away, like Oh this ain't gonna work. Yep, it's 716 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: too trippy. We won't move forward with that. So I 717 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 1: think that we have done a good job of like 718 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: judging character kind of like finding the best you know 719 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:22,959 Speaker 1: in class that we can find. So we haven't had 720 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: too much problems. But I think the biggest problem we 721 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: have is like denying batches, you know what I mean, 722 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: Like we have a very strong QC team right now, 723 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: and it took a while to learn that. Like I 724 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: would lie, I didn't say there was learning curves to 725 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: expand this fast, right, But what we've done is like 726 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: in single markets will say, hey, we're not we're not 727 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: approving any of this, Like you can go package under 728 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: something else. It's not coming out, it's not coming in 729 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: our bag. Yeah, So it's hard. That's the only struggle 730 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: is like we end up denying sometimes more than we accept. 731 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: That's to protect the brand. I mean, you can't just 732 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: put bullshit out. What would be some advice, you know, 733 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: because I got to imagine from your perspective, right, you're 734 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: you know, the one thing that I think makes you 735 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: different than a lot of rappers who are trying to 736 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: do the weed thing is like your genuine passion for 737 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: the whole process and not for just you know, if 738 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: we think of a lot of these rappers, they're just 739 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: trying to be you low key. Everybody wants their own cookies. 740 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: But like you said earlier about Ross, a lot of 741 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: guys just want money now. They want to put they 742 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: want to say, hey, what's what's my money now? Looking 743 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: like as opposed to trying to really build a brand. 744 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: And I feel like so many rappers are just horing 745 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: their name out now in the in the weed space. 746 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: It's like kind of crazy. And even rappers that don't smoke, 747 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: Like a lot of rappers who do not smoke weed. 748 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: And I'm not even talking about like shout out to 749 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: jay Z not a big smoker, but Jay is a 750 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: fucking boss, So i'd expect you to get into the 751 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: cannubs came. But there's a lot of rappers who are 752 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: participating in the weed culture right now that really have 753 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: never been in the weed culture. Is that kind of 754 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: frustrating for you to kind of I mean, it doesn't 755 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: really matter at the end of the day, but is 756 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: it not. I don't I don't even take it a 757 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: certain type way the way I look at us like 758 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: this Why do I do this still? Right, It's emotional 759 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: and it's crazy a lot I'm take, probably taking years 760 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: off my life from stress, but I do it because 761 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: I love it. I notice that weed really unites people. 762 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: It brings people together from every different walks of lix, 763 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: whether you're old, young, gay, straight, fucking you know whatever. 764 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: I've seen weed unite people all around the world. That's 765 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: why I do it. Right. Two, I love weed. I'm 766 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: obsessed with I've been doing it for so long, so 767 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: I guess I say to that to say I'm passionate 768 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: about this shit. When you're passionate about something, you really 769 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: live it, and you walk in and you understand why 770 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: you're doing it. I don't think you can even worry 771 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: about no one else. So I welcome everyone getting in 772 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: the game. Will open arms, but I think that they'll 773 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: burn themselves out because they might not really be passionate 774 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: about it. You go to my studio session right now, 775 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: there's forty two jars later on the table, all different 776 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: names on them. I got a notepad next to those jars. 777 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm just smoking them, taking notes on what I like 778 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: and why I like it, and slowly putting them aside 779 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: and picking which ones I'm gonna keep, which ones I'm 780 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: gonna give away? And it's a fucking process. I love 781 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: this shit. I do this shit, will I live, eat, 782 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: and breathe this shit. So you know, the people that 783 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: are in the game that want to just get in 784 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: to get in, I think they'll just burn themselves out. 785 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: What would be some advice you would give someone watching 786 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: this who is trying to get I'm not even talking 787 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: about rappers, just in general, trying to get it into 788 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: the legal side of the weed games. Start from the 789 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: ground up, like I did. Learn the business, Understand what 790 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: you want to do and why you'll be impactful that 791 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: in that space, and work your way up. That's what 792 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 1: I did. I mean I tell people all the time, 793 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: if you want to get in the week game, go 794 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 1: work at the dispensary. Understand the consumer. Understand the vendor. 795 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,280 Speaker 1: Understand the grower. Understand the buttender, the pos system. Understand 796 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,919 Speaker 1: the butt tender, Understand how to merchandise. Understand everything before 797 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 1: you get in. Decide what you want to do. Do Do 798 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: you want to be a designer, you want to be 799 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: a grower, you want to be a store operator? Do 800 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 1: you want to be do you want to build a brand, 801 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: Like what do you want to do? I think building 802 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: a brand is a lot more difficult than people think. 803 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: You can't just take a fucking T shirt, put your 804 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: logo on it, put it back with your logo on it, 805 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: and now you've got a brand. There's a lot deeper 806 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: in that. Trust me, I'm aware and I think that, Like, 807 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: if you go back to YouTube, I think the reason 808 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: why Cookies residenting with peoples that documented every step of 809 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: that process. So if you're going to build something, document it, 810 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: because you can go see me pulling the strings to 811 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 1: my hoodies, you know, fifteen years, ten years ago, nine 812 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: years on YouTube. On YouTube, you can see me making 813 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: those hoodies, selling that shit. You can see me in 814 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: the dispensary way long ago. Right, Like I've documented every 815 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: process of it, so people resonate with it. They know 816 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: it's real. It's crazy. You mentioned branding because like you have, 817 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: I feel like you could write a book on how 818 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: to brand. I want to because I'm trying to get 819 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 1: a book deal right now. Yeah, Because like if you 820 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: think about the Cookies brand, the color the Cookies blue, 821 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: just the logo, just everything is so two logos. You 822 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: got the font which is on my hand. You got 823 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: the circle see by if they ever say cookies can't 824 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: be used because it's you know, attracting children. Whatever they 825 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 1: might use, you got the colorway if all else fails, 826 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: Like I just came with a straight identity, Bro, And 827 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: I just I just learned it from watching, you know, 828 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: watching the business I was in the dispenser. I know, 829 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: no one really had a real brand. It's like when 830 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: you see that blue, you know what time it is? Yeah, 831 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: what was the thought process behind that color? Because that 832 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: color it sticks out, it's you know, it was the 833 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: first hoodie I made, Bro for the Yoko video, Like, 834 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: I just I was like, give me like a like 835 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: a different blue, like with the blue strings. Like I 836 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,720 Speaker 1: just wanted to do something that would pop on camera 837 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: when I seen them, Like that's my colorway right there. 838 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 1: How important was that record Yoko for you, man? Because 839 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: that was you know that record also went to radio right, 840 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 1: and I think you had a bad going for that record. 841 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: You had big grit Chris Brown Whiz Was that the 842 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: first record you and Wizard did? That was twenty ten, right, 843 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: I think that that is the first Whiz Whiz song. Yeah, 844 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: it was. It was a big record. For me, and 845 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,879 Speaker 1: I think that like there's a story behind that shit 846 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: that no one even knows about. Not just like the 847 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: making of the video was wild. Like when I did 848 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 1: that song, I ran into Chris Brown in the studio 849 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: right he was there. I was smoking bud. His cousin 850 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: smoked the bud. It was like, oh, shot, fuck, would 851 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: you come eat? Brown got Brown in the video Back then. 852 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: His manager was Tina David. She said all right, well 853 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: he well we'll prove him doing the record. We cannot 854 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:03,839 Speaker 1: do any video, like video is not happening whatever. So 855 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: I got the record done with Big Crit Chris Brown. 856 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: Big Krit made the Beag shit was tech. I was like, 857 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: I gotta do a video for this.

There's a 1275 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: lot of weird shit going on. There's a lot of 1276 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 1: there's a lot of control issues, and people want to 1277 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 1: be in power, Other countries want to be in power. 1278 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 1: I definitely feel like there's other other plans out there 1279 00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 1: that we've been to or that we can go to. 1280 00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 1: And that's why you see Bezos. I was gonna say, 1281 00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 1: that's why I think you see these billionaires. They're gonna 1282 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: be the first people to leave, because I honestly feel 1283 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,840 Speaker 1: like the government's suppressed how easy it really might be 1284 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: to get up there right Like they're just telling you 1285 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 1: it's not possible. You gotta get this big rock and 1286 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: do this, And then how the fuck do we know 1287 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:42,920 Speaker 1: that you look at you look at ship, and they say, 1288 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 1: it's this far it takes. That might all might all 1289 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: be some bullshit. You might be able to get in 1290 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: something and just get up. So I don't know, but 1291 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,839 Speaker 1: I definitely know there's more people. There's more there's more 1292 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 1: species out there than just us. We're not we're not 1293 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:58,439 Speaker 1: like the dominant species. We've been put here by something else. 1294 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 1: Our body is designed like a fucking computer. DNA's design 1295 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 1: like a fucking computer. It's not we didn't. We didn't 1296 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:09,279 Speaker 1: just Germans didn't just fucking calculating design us like we 1297 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,239 Speaker 1: were designed on purpose.

A lot of 1301 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 1: a lot of great stuff happened over there. But yeah, no, 1302 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: it's it's crazy because when I was growing up, my 1303 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: mom's uncle was like a og at NASA, og at NASA. 1304 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 1: So she went to Maryland to visit her her aunt 1305 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 1: and her aunt's husband who worked at NASA at the time. 1306 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 1: His name was Doc, and my mom asked him if 1307 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: aliens are real, and he said it he couldn't tell her, 1308 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 1: But if people knew what was in the ocean, a 1309 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,959 Speaker 1: lot of people don't want to kill themselves. Yeah no, dude, 1310 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 1: I mean that's just stuck with me. One of my 1311 00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: friends when I was growing up, his grandpa was the 1312 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 1: super super decorated war veteran and like very straight edge, 1313 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 1: very square like super like just legit. And when he 1314 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: was dying, he told my best friend man, just I 1315 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 1: had to keep this to my deathbed, Bud, there's definitely 1316 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 1: aliens out there. I've definitely seen things and you should 1317 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:22,479 Speaker 1: know we're not alone and I just wanted to share 1318 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: it with you and that should just stuck with me too. 1319 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 1: But you guy, it's got to be realistic. Man, there's 1320 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 1: no way we're the only people out here. And I've 1321 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 1: been even thinking, like I've been really reading on lately, 1322 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 1: like life after death, like maybe this is just one 1323 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 1: big audition for like what happens next, Like look at 1324 00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 1: my dogs sometimes, like this motherfucker's been here before. He 1325 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 1: was he's been here before, And I start geeking out 1326 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: on that, and I really I'm really into like what 1327 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,000 Speaker 1: happens when you die? Type shit? Right now? Are you like, 1328 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: would you consider yourself religious? Nah? Because I'm not at 1329 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 1: all either. I'm borderline atheists. I'm borderline I don't know. 1330 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I get in trouble a lot when 1331 00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 1: people ask me about religion. But I'll be straightforward. I 1332 00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 1: believe that we were put here by something. If you 1333 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:05,439 Speaker 1: look at religion, right, every single religion, whether it be 1334 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 1: whatever country, whatever religion it is, they all say that 1335 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 1: someone came from above, came down, taught them, and went 1336 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 1: back up. No fucking brainer. Yeah, I've always kind of been. 1337 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 1: A lot of that shit is man made. They all 1338 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: got the same themes for the most part. Some are 1339 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: a little feel like they all experienced the same thing. 1340 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:27,120 Speaker 1: Someone came from above, taught them and went back up. 1341 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 1: What does that mean? I mean even like the hieroglyphics, 1342 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: there's some wild hieroglyphics where it's like motherfuckers were bird, 1343 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 1: humans and all kinds of shit. So I like to 1344 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 1: get high, bro, When my day ins I have like 1345 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: an eighteen hour, nineteen hour workday, whatever fuck it is, 1346 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 1: I get home for the last few hours of my day, 1347 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 1: I just get high and I google as much as 1348 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: I can.

I really 1363 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: want to bring to life, like northern California crime stories 1364 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 1: and like just northern California is on tap. Like if 1365 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 1: you really look at a lot of crime films or 1366 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: movies in general based on LA especially on a commercial 1367 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 1: worldwide level. Yeah, there's nothing out the Bay and I 1368 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 1: feel like that's my job, right. So my hobby now 1369 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 1: is just developing content barrier base like and it's fucked up. 1370 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: It's not really a hobby. I guess it's like work, 1371 01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:57,760 Speaker 1: but that's what I like to do. Yeah, So the 1372 01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 1: show that you're developing with the Snowfall people, that's like 1373 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 1: a big deal. It's a really big deal. That's like 1374 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 1: that's not like some like independent like rap shit. Nah. 1375 01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: But See, the thing is, like I also understand that 1376 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: that we're gonna raise like seventy to eighty million to 1377 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 1: do that project and it's gonna take time. So in 1378 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 1: between that, while developing that, I'm trying to not gout 1379 01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 1: all of shit learned the game. Yeah, I'm trying to 1380 01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: do like an independent like the Splash City.

I'm not doing that. If I ever exit, bro, 1461 01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:04,200 Speaker 1: if I ever exit, if there's ever a liquidity event 1462 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:08,200 Speaker 1: for me. They understand there's like major major, major, major 1463 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: major protection of the brain and involved, like no one's 1464 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:13,240 Speaker 1: down to do that. My goal is to pass this 1465 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:15,480 Speaker 1: shit to my daughter, To be honest with you, I 1466 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:16,920 Speaker 1: tease her all the time, you're about to be a 1467 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: little CEO. You better learn the game. And she already 1468 01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 1: has a clothing line. Yeah, that's why I did that. 1469 01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 1: She understands that's big. I never he knows. I don't 1470 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,440 Speaker 1: really promote shit like that because I'm making her and 1471 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:30,280 Speaker 1: make her figure out. You got to figure it out. 1472 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 1: How's it doing? It does cool? It could do a 1473 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 1: lot better, but and I'm sure if I post it 1474 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,520 Speaker 1: every day and every drop, they probably do way better. 1475 01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 1: But I want her to learn the struggles. I don't 1476 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 1: want to just give her everything. She's got to work 1477 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 1: for it. But like me and her bond by like 1478 01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:45,920 Speaker 1: designs and like we can flip a jacket like this, 1479 01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 1: or you can do like this, or you can And 1480 01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 1: she's really proud of her shit, and she wears it 1481 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 1: to school and I couldn't be more proud of her. 1482 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 1: But I wanted to learn that shit hands on. You 1483 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 1: know how was settling down for you? Because you know 1484 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 1: you you had your days. I was a wild boy. 1485 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 1: He was a wild boy. I was a wild boy. 1486 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 1: I was a wild boy. Settling down for me was good, Yeah, 1487 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 1: because I feel like, you know the you know, for 1488 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,400 Speaker 1: me too, Like I was a wild boy. For sure. 1489 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,439 Speaker 1: I was wild and I don't even know I was wild. 1490 01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:16,960 Speaker 1: But you know what though, like it feels so much 1491 01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 1: better than not having to deal with that shit, like 1492 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:21,440 Speaker 1: you know how it should be multiple girls and phones 1493 01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: and hiding and this. I can't even think about doing 1494 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: that right now. Yeah, I think too, like once you've 1495 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:30,120 Speaker 1: done everything, it's like, man, you like, there's almost only 1496 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 1: so much of that shit you could do. I did 1497 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 1: it all. I was a bartender before any of the shit. 1498 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 1: I remember that when I was working at the Hempston. 1499 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: I was a bartender at eighteen. You have to understand 1500 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 1: I did it all. I did it all right. It 1501 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: was amazing. I was young and my hair was slicked 1502 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 1: back of the skinny. Was incredible. But I think that 1503 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 1: settling down leveled up my business, yeah for sure, Like 1504 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 1: it took me from like hood rich to in a 1505 01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 1: great place straight up. Yeah. I feel like since I 1506 01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:00,480 Speaker 1: got married to my wife, everything is improved. Shout out 1507 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 1: to our wives. Shout to the wife, because if I 1508 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:05,840 Speaker 1: wasn't if I wasn't able to go to like when 1509 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 1: I'm here working or if I'm traveling, if I didn't 1510 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 1: know that my household was good, and then my daughter 1511 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 1: was straight when she's at my house. Because my daughter's 1512 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,400 Speaker 1: been in the household with my wife now for like 1513 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,120 Speaker 1: five days and she hasn't even went back to her 1514 01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 1: mom's house, you know. So it's it's perfect because I 1515 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: know I have a solid household and that ship does 1516 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 1: numbers for your mentally. Yeah, when you're gone, you know 1517 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 1: everything's handled. Yeah.

I get yelled at for not cleaning now 1521 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,000 Speaker 1: and that, you know, here and then, but at the 1522 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 1: end of the day, settling down made me like a 1523 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 1: very successful business guy. I see a lot of my 1524 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: friends caught up with hell of girls and shit, that's 1525 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:42,560 Speaker 1: shit's ass backwards.

You know, 1532 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people in my position because you have 1533 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 1: to think, like if I stole my business with the 1534 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,600 Speaker 1: new body and administration's laws, like I probably have to 1535 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 1: give sixty eight percent.

I 1537 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,639 Speaker 1: would end up keeping like fifteen percent of my business profits, 1538 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 1: right like, So, I don't know. I can't do Miami. 1539 01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Miami is too humid humid.

Fuck that it's it's it's 1644 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:16,720 Speaker 1: it's horrible. Was there ever a point in time where 1645 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 1: you had an opportunity to maybe do something on the 1646 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 1: major label side where you just kind of kept kept 1647 01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:21,920 Speaker 1: it moving because I know you know you've been you've 1648 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,439 Speaker 1: been doing the distro with Empires, since I really feel 1649 01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:28,240 Speaker 1: like since Empire was ever even a thing. Fuck major labels, Dude, 1650 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:30,320 Speaker 1: they never understood me. They never wanted to take the 1651 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:32,799 Speaker 1: time to understand me. It's probably their biggest mistake because 1652 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:34,920 Speaker 1: I mean they probably would have had a piece of 1653 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 1: everything I'm doing now. So I sat down with a 1654 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 1: couple and they just did not understand me. They never did. 1655 01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:44,360 Speaker 1: How early on were did you link with Ghazi for 1656 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 1: two thousand and six? Two thousand and five or six? 1657 01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 1: Was that when he was rapping m Now he was 1658 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:53,679 Speaker 1: at Ingrows Okay, yeah, yeah, so he left INgrooves started Empire, 1659 01:13:53,920 --> 01:13:56,080 Speaker 1: and so from the rip where you just doing distro 1660 01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 1: through his company, now was the Ingrous And one day 1661 01:13:58,040 --> 01:13:59,720 Speaker 1: he told me, Yo, I moved the catalog over to 1662 01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:01,599 Speaker 1: my new company.

And I was one of his first lines. 1666 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 1: And yeah, and it's you know, I always tell people 1667 01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:15,760 Speaker 1: like Empires the shit check comes every month. First I 1668 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:18,000 Speaker 1: tell some of these major label artists how much I 1669 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,080 Speaker 1: get for iTunes checks and the like what fuck are 1670 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: you serious? Well, they're idiots. They signed all their leverage away. 1671 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:25,719 Speaker 1: They fucking a lot of these major artists they signed 1672 01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 1: too early. I feel bad because when I tell them 1673 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:30,639 Speaker 1: how much I get from just my empire check alone, 1674 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 1: you could see their eyes like what well, because most 1675 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,959 Speaker 1: artists aren't getting any money, don't get anything. They're literally 1676 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:40,760 Speaker 1: they got to make their advance last because they're not 1677 01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:43,599 Speaker 1: going to ever recoup, you know. Uh. We did an 1678 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 1: interview with YG a couple of years maybe like middle 1679 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,559 Speaker 1: of the pandemic. He was like, I've never seen any 1680 01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:51,000 Speaker 1: money off my depth. Jam shit. He's one of the 1681 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 1: dopest guys ever. That's he's the best, terrible and at 1682 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:55,920 Speaker 1: the time he was like on some fuck death jam shit. 1683 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 1: But like, it's crazy because that story is happens a lot. 1684 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:02,519 Speaker 1: If someone didn't give you some money up front, it's 1685 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:05,920 Speaker 1: probably a bunch of bullshit comes with it a thousand 1686 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,639 Speaker 1: the way I did. Yeah, I always tell everybody, man, 1687 01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:11,640 Speaker 1: don't take the bigger the advance. You better make it 1688 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 1: the longer. You got to make it last. It kept 1689 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 1: a certain hunger inside me too. I like being the underdog. 1690 01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:23,200 Speaker 1: That's what's your favorite Burner album. Like, you just said 1691 01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:24,640 Speaker 1: you're working on your best album yet. I've heard you 1692 01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:26,160 Speaker 1: say that almost every time you put an album out. 1693 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 1: But what's your favorite ever? Um? Fuck, dude, They're they're 1694 01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:33,280 Speaker 1: like journals, dude, I don't know. I mean, I think 1695 01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:35,679 Speaker 1: the White album. I think Drugstore Cowboy is a good one. 1696 01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:38,760 Speaker 1: I think the White Album was really really good too. 1697 01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 1: But the reason why I say this is the best 1698 01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,400 Speaker 1: album I've done now is because I got Cosmo producing it. 1699 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,920 Speaker 1: It's my best friend. We work great together. You guys 1700 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 1: just did a collap album. Yeah, And I really leveled 1701 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:51,719 Speaker 1: them up on the way that we're doing the production 1702 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,679 Speaker 1: of the project. I gave him free range, like instead 1703 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 1: of me just being in the studio like send me 1704 01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:56,880 Speaker 1: a beat them out of the rap, Like we're just 1705 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 1: spending ten days on just producing this thing and then 1706 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,360 Speaker 1: IM gonna take that production come back you know on 1707 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 1: five days, six days from now, and then really just 1708 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 1: dive into like recording. So I like this body work 1709 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,000 Speaker 1: as we're actually really doing it, like from scratch, yeah, 1710 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,200 Speaker 1: from the red samples. I'm not getting sued anymore. People 1711 01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 1: playing guitars, people doing vocals, Like it's really cool. You 1712 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:22,599 Speaker 1: had like an era with al Chievo where you were 1713 01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 1: diving a lot into collaborating with Latin artists, and I 1714 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:27,800 Speaker 1: know that you had kind of flirted with the idea 1715 01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 1: of maybe doing an album with Dell Records. Yeah, I 1716 01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: mean the record is incredible. Shout out to Chris. I 1717 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:38,400 Speaker 1: think I think I was DJing one of your shows. 1718 01:16:38,439 --> 01:16:41,160 Speaker 1: I think it was in Vegas at hard Rock, and 1719 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:45,360 Speaker 1: Chris came out and saying and yeah, but that was, like, 1720 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:47,920 Speaker 1: what did you learn from kind of dabbling in that 1721 01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:50,799 Speaker 1: side of the game, because the Latin shit is crazy. 1722 01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 1: I just was in the Latin billboards for a whole 1723 01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,000 Speaker 1: week because my artist is Mexicans, so we were out there. 1724 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 1: I just learned a different world, the world out there. 1725 01:16:57,479 --> 01:16:59,519 Speaker 1: And I think what we did with Del Chivo Records, 1726 01:16:59,520 --> 01:17:02,519 Speaker 1: we took pop in their traditional like style of making 1727 01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:04,759 Speaker 1: music and combineded it and it was like the first 1728 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:08,400 Speaker 1: of that kind, Like we flipped the knas beat dude.

I tried it with Laplaza. 1740 01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:35,680 Speaker 1: I tried it, but like it's just it's tough, man, Like, 1741 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 1: it's just music is tough, like people. People enjoyed it, 1742 01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 1: and music actually was really good, but my core fan 1743 01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 1: base complained a little bit.

I got a place here for a while. 1891 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:10,920 Speaker 1: So it's tight to see that because that she ain't 1892 01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:13,839 Speaker 1: going nowhere. Homi's gonna have that forever. He's a grandpa 1893 01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:16,640 Speaker 1: and she's gonna have that right here. Who's that?

My 1896 01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 1: logo this nation's compliment. You talk about vibes, I know 1897 01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,800 Speaker 1: you and the guy from Raw Papers went at it 1898 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:34,960 Speaker 1: for a while. What happened there. He's a homie now, dude. 1899 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:37,400 Speaker 1: You and Josh worked it out. Yeah, he's a homie now. 1900 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,719 Speaker 1: So because it was it was pretty contentious for a while. 1901 01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:44,280 Speaker 1: I know, literally I literally kind of stopped following dude. Yeah, 1902 01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:48,160 Speaker 1: you know, at the end of the day, bro, I 1903 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:51,640 Speaker 1: think that just like business is emotional, that that category, 1904 01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 1: that rolling paper category is very small, bro, and he's 1905 01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,560 Speaker 1: had his, he's had his is very political. Yeah, I 1906 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:02,640 Speaker 1: think that, Like, I think he expected me to just 1907 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:07,640 Speaker 1: not go do something in that space, and we just 1908 01:25:07,680 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 1: recently we started talking again and I got major. I 1909 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,479 Speaker 1: always say in the interviews too, he is the paper, 1910 01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:15,920 Speaker 1: don He's the one that he's the boss of the 1911 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,920 Speaker 1: paper game. Doesn't mean that I can't do my thing too. 1912 01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:20,600 Speaker 1: So I think we're in a good position now to 1913 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 1: where he respects what I'm doing and I respect him. 1914 01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 1: I always respect him. Well, you guys had a relationship 1915 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,719 Speaker 1: prior to you launching Vice. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, he's cool. 1916 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 1: He's a business mogul. Bro. At the end of the day, 1917 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 1: like I look up to the kind of business he's accomplished. 1918 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,280 Speaker 1: So it's like I respect him. Now. We had a 1919 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 1: falling out and I reacted the way it did, and 1920 01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:39,920 Speaker 1: he reacted the way he did towards me. But I 1921 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 1: think all that time went past and let bygones be 1922 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 1: by gone, and it's not like either of you guys 1923 01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:48,599 Speaker 1: lost respect for each other. Nah, Bro, I think he respects. 1924 01:25:48,600 --> 01:25:50,439 Speaker 1: I think that I've leveled up a lot since that 1925 01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:52,880 Speaker 1: falling out and he respects where I'm at now. Has 1926 01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 1: the paper business been the most challenging thing you've done? 1927 01:25:55,040 --> 01:25:57,240 Speaker 1: Because it feels like, like you said, it's a very 1928 01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 1: like interesting business. I'm sure at first, Yeah, at first 1929 01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:02,360 Speaker 1: it was challenging, Bro, because there was a lot of roadblocks. 1930 01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:04,360 Speaker 1: You know, was it from him or was it from 1931 01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:08,040 Speaker 1: people other competitors.
