3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 1: Eric, welcome back. I had to tell everybody put your

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 1: phones down, you know it. I do feel like the

5
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: other day, like every time I'm out and I'm looking around.

6
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 2: Everybody's on their phone all the time.

7
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: So when I say everybody, I need me too, I

8
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: love to put mine down and then act like I've

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: been off. Yeah, put your phone down.

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 3: One second.

11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: Just think about like when you first got started, this

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: was not a prevalent thing, like people on their phones

13
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: all the time, you know, But now it's like clubs

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: had dance floor clubs people.

15
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 3: People were dancing. We missed those days.

16
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about it. This is so funny to

17
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: me because I think everything you do is for a reason.

18
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: So you had it'll all make sense later, and then

19
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: the album it'll all make sense later.

20
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 3: It's later, it makes sense. It makes sense, you know

21
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 3: what I mean? Like what you're talking about now, it's

22
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 3: just you know, it's right in your face.

23
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's so Talk to me about the

24
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: thinking that went behind that, because at first, like when

25
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: I saw the new album that was on the way.

26
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: I was confused. I was like, wait, is this the same?

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: Is this like an extended version? So tell me why

28
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: you did, like, it'll all make sense later. And then

29
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: now it is later, it all makes sense.

30
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: Okay.

31
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 4: So I was in South Africa working on music right

32
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 4: and of course I'm just known as the R and

33
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 4: B singer, you know what I mean. So when I

34
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 4: was out there, I was talking with my buddy be

35
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 4: Script and he was like, I know people are gonna

36
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 4: be like, why is he making this music? Why is

37
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 4: da da da da dad?

38
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 3: He said, a dog, Just just trust me, Just trust me.

39
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 3: It all makes sense later. And it was just a conversation.

40
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 4: And then I was like, wait title that because that

41
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 4: was the selling point for me because he was like, yo, bro,

42
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: trust me on this one.

43
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: You know what I mean. We need to go to

44
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: the motherland. We need to go to Cape Town.

45
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 4: And I took a trip with him and we did

46
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,400

Speaker 1: you have. And the consistency that you have, but also

160
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: the ability I think to move from like songwriter to

161
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: lead artists the way that you do too. You know,

162
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 1: that's a really special gift.

163
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 3: No, it's a gift. I think. I was so.

164
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 4: I was doing artistry first, but I was in singing groups.

165
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 4: So I was like, you know when B two K

166
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 4: was out and you know all of the groups back

167
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 4: in the day. That's when my group was signed to.

168
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 3: Epic Records, and you had like a church group too,

169
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 3: And I was.

170
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 4: Singing in church. I was singing in school in the choir.

171
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 4: So it was something that I always did. But when

172
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 4: I was younger, I didn't never thought. I never think

173
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 4: I would do it for real. I was trying to

174
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 4: play football.

175
00:08:53,480 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: Right, Well, that good thing you did.

176
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 4: So, yeah, we could, you know, we kept it tight

177
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,479
Speaker 4: instead of getting it, I started making hits.

178
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: Look, you made the right decision you know what. I

179
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,719
Speaker 1: was like, something leads you into making the right decisions,

180
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: Like I'll never forget this story that you told about

181
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: getting off a flight like a six hour or no

182
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: thirteen hours Monday, yea, yeah, going to London and turn

183
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: it right back around and going to work with Chris

00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 1: Brown for the first time.

185
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 3: You got the call.

186
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 4: As soon as I landed, I had Hello text messages

187
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 4: like we need to get back on the fly.

188
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was sleep on the plane and I was like, nah,

189
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 3: they can't what they talking about.

190
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 4: And ironically I was out there to work on the

191
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 4: Rihanna camp, so it was like, okay, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Rihanna,

192
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 4: Chris Brown. So luckily it worked out because she wasn't

193
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 4: gonna beat here until like the end of like the week.

194
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 4: So I literally went there pin the joints for Chris.

195
00:09:58,520 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 4: Oh my love, say it with me.

196
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 3: On album Now I want a Grammy. And then I

197
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 3: went right back period and got it all done it.

198
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 4: Oh for sure, Yeah, the windows, it has to happen.

199
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, lay down. We still had a

200
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 4: seat build on.

201
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: But you know, I want to ask you about writing

202
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: camps because I know that's a popular thing. I've been

203
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: watching like that Netflix show hit Makers. Yeah, hit Makers,

204
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: seven Street, everybody that's on there. How do you like

205
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 1: writing camps? Because I've heard people writers say before that

206
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, there's like a hierarchy when it comes to that.

207
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: So can you kind of do this?

208
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 3: Everybody's not invited, you know what I'm saying.

209
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 4: Everybody can't go everybody, and it heightens the competitive songwriting.

210
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 4: You know, like all right, you got Seventh Street over there,

211
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 4: you got Tommy Brown over there, you got you know,

212
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 4: every building's over there, you got the Dream or James Funtleroy.

213
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 3: You're gonna go as hard as you possibly can.

214
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 4: You know, this is your actual chance to be heard,

215
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 4: because when you're at home, you know, and you emailing

216
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 4: it to the n R to whoever is not the

217
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 4: same as when you finish writing.

218
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 3: They walking in here right there, they're walking in here

219
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 3: to hear it.

220
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 4: So especially out of everybody, it's like it's great that

221
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 4: they get to hear it right away, but now you

222
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 4: got to higher competition, so you know what I mean,

223
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 4: It's just make you go crazier for real.

224
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 1: How is it also collabing? Because sometimes like how does

225
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: that work when it's like credits and one person as

226
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: a little something, because I have to imagine sometimes that

227
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: gets a little messy, like I gave that line, yeah,

228
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: and you like you give one line?

229
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 3: You know, you know, like it is messy. It is messy.

230
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 3: That part is tough, you know.

231
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 4: I was speaking on behalf of like when you're in

232
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 4: your own room, but when you co writing with.

233
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,599
Speaker 3: People, because what if y'all don't vibe you know what

234
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 3: I mean?

235
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 4: Luckily, like I feel like I'm somebody that's that has

236
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 4: a vibe that can like a chameleon. I'm not like,

237
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 4: this is my vibe and this is the only vibe

238
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 4: I can exist on.

239
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that's your vibe. I can find I

240
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 3: can find my energy in there. You know what I'm saying.

241
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 4: Get with you, especially since we're trying to have one

242
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 4: common goal, you know. So I'll be like, all right, cool,

243
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 4: what you thinking? I'll let them lead the way, Loki

244
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: like asking them what you're thinking?

245
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 3: You got something? Okay, well I have something you like this?

246
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

247
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 4: So they feel like I included them, whether they are

248
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 4: part of the process or not.

249
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: You know, how much of your personal life goes into

250
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: these songs. Is it weird sometimes when you wrote something

251
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: that like you just went through and somebody else is singing,

252
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: maybe it's not the way you would.

253
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 3: Have did it. It is. It's tough. It's tough, honestly.

254
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 4: The song it's so it's a song Chris Brown Indigo, right,

255
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 4: And that song is like when I first was on

256
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 4: my spiritual journey about chakras alignment yoga, that song we

257
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 4: wrote it, you know what I mean. So it was

258
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 4: like giving my soul, my spirit, you know what I mean.

259
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 4: But when he cut it in like even now he

260
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 4: performs it Like the first time I seen people doing

261
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 4: a reaction video. I remember to the album I'm about

262
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 4: to get real, real, real sensitive.

263
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 3: But I cried, you know what I'm saying.

264
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 4: So it's like I get to see my song and

265
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 4: my work appreciated at such a high level that it's

266
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 4: a win for everybody.

267
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 5: I saw you just post seeing him perform your songs,

268
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 5: and you're like seeing my work being performed and you

269
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 5: just like that moment of like.

270
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, did that I did that?

271
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 4: So now yes, I found the glass high full instead

272
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 4: of half empty.

273
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 3: And a lot of things in life as I got older.

274
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: Man, that breezy ball ain't no joke. But I want

275
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: to say, like Vegas, it's.

276
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 3: So many yeah going on. Yeah, you know this copy.

277
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: Part of what makes him a great performance too, is

278
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: when he's got craziness and madness happening and then being

279
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: able to put it all on the stage because I

280
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,680

Speaker 4: It's told you yo, it's extra for the photo.

316
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 3: And people get people start that it's just the fingernails,

317
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 3: cause people have been getting like the you know what

318
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 3: I mean.

319
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 2: Jewelry, all the things.

320
00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 3: Yes, it's part of your merch. You know.

321
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: People have spoken a lot about like writing and being

322
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: a songwriter and how sometimes artists get the most creative

323
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: when they're going through like things that are negative. Right,

324
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: but it feels like and I will say this, you know,

325
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: we don't know what goes on at home. Yeah, but

326
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: pretty even like things have been good, they really have,

327
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: And I like that.

328
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: It's the respect.

329
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 4: We both got so much respect for each other, and

330
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 4: I think that's like what keeps us because before I

331
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 4: was anything like that, I was trying to do.

332
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 3: I already knew who.

333
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 4: She was and I just respected her and you looked

334
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 4: at her like a prize, you know. And I think

335
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 4: she had the same regard for me, just believing in

336
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 4: me as well, you know, knowing each other from back

337
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 4: in the day. And I think with that, it's kind

338
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 4: of like, I'm not trying to hurt my friend. I'm

339
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 4: not trying to hurt my dog.

340
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: That's my friend for real. So we leave with that

341
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 3: and it's just real chill.

342
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 4: So the music reflects it because it's hard for me

343
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 4: not to write what's on my sleeve for real. So

344
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 4: I've loved being the life in the darkness. Like, man,

345
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 4: you're right, the negative get way more attention to get,

346
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 4: you know, because people like messy.

347
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 3: People like messy. It's like, I'm gonna just beat it.

348
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 3: Have you ever been a positive, dude?

349
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 1: Have you ever had to write like a distrack for somebody,

350
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: anybody ever came to you for.

351
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 3: Back in the day, Yes, you did.

352
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 4: I had the energy of Tory back in the day,

353
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 4: it was like young, we was young, you.

354
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 3: Know what I mean.

355
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 4: He took mynas and I was like, hold up, swallow lot.

356
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 3: But since then we smashed it. It's all love. It's family.

357
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 4: Like we've been able to talk since then and I

358
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 4: never even like told nobody, but we've been able to

359
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 4: chop it up, and you know what I mean. That

360
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 4: was my family back in the day. So that's why

361
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 4: I felt comfortable just saying whatever I wanted to say,

362
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 4: like Yo'm my tuper, you know what I mean. So

363
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 4: I think now that time has passed, both matured, you know,

364
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 4: it's all ve But.

365
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: What about writing for someone else like this song? Has

366
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 1: anybody ever came to you for that right? And you like,

367
00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: you think you would be good at like writing some

368
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: know it because you can write anything.

369
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 3: It like the show.

370
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 4: I'm definitely gonna get the job done to execute whatever

371
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 4: the idea is.

372
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 3: And I think those kinds of records is fun, you

373
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. Especially it's like you know what I'm.

374
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: Saying, but it ain't gotta be neat, Like what would

375
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 1: have tapped you during that battle and been like Eric,

376
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 1: I need you for.

377
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 3: Sure, I got you, I got.

378
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: Or what if right now j T is like, look,

00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 1: I'm in the booth, I need you to come.

380
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 3: We're writing. Yeah, we're writing. I'm here to do your job. Sorry, game,

381
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 3: sorry game.

382
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 4: The mortgage is gone ahead first and it's moving faster nowadays.

383
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: What would you be on the hook for one of those, Like,

384
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: it depends on who it is, because if it's the

385
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: artist and I'm low key signing with him, like.

386
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 4: Where we at, where we ride, I'm sorry, I'm here

387
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 4: both sides of the story.

388
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 2: I'm here you out right.

389
00:18:55,240 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: But because those records tend to, like, you know, do

390
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: really well more period of times, I think a lot

391
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: of them don't stand the test of time. It just

392
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: goes up for a minute.

393
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, no it do.

394
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 4: And I for sure feel like it gets the people's

395
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 4: attention because it's like a nosy. It's more so about

396
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 4: people's nosy rather than you interesting.

397
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 1: You know, That's that is how we consume music is

398
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 1: so different now than how it absolutely like even when

399
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: people talk about first week sales, what used to be

400
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: amazing is like you know, people used to go like

401
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: platinum in the first week. Everything that don't happen.

402
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, nah, I think it's too much going on in

403
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: the world.

404
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: And it's streaming like everything, so many streams for you

405
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: to be able to actually hit those numbers. It's just

406
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: a different day.

407
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,280

00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: Right? I appreciate that, you know what, there's a lot

424
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,960

436
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 5: I sent this to our chat today that there's a

437
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 5: ballplayer who is actually admitting to being in the fifty

438
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 5: to fifty rent situation with his girl and he's.

439
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: Signed a two hundred million dollar contract.

440
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 2: But but this is it, though, But this is it.

441
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 5: It isn't that he's splitting their rand fifty fifty. It

442
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 5: isn't that there he's splitting there fifty. He's splitting her

443
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 5: rent fifty fifty. So basically, she found the place that

444
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 5: she really liked and she's like, but I really can't

445
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 5: afford this. And he's like, it's really nice and I

446
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 5: would feel comfortable coming here, So what can you pay?

447
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 5: And I paid the rest?

448
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 3: So what that sounds about? Right?

449
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 5: So he said, for this full year of this lease,

450
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 5: I am committed to paying. Now, you know you're not

451
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 5: supposed to be doing that, but you got I don't

452
00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 5: you know, I got your friend?

453
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 2: So wow.

454
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 5: So he's like, during this whole year, while you're in

455
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 5: this least I'm going to commit the pandis my percentage

456
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 5: of the rent. But then they broke up, and now

457
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 5: instead of instead of giving her the lump sum to

458
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 5: pay off, he's like divvying it out every month depending on.

459
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 3: How she ad.

460
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, that's not his wife, you

461
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? The thing about putting yourself in

462
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: a situation where if you break up with somebody, the

463
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: deal is off. I mean unless you have a contract.

464
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: Because I know somebody who she bought a car when

465
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: I bought it, but like her man helped her get

466
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 1: a car, and then they broke up, and she thought

467
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: he should still pay the least payments And I'm like, girl,

468
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: I know you don't think he's gonna still pay least

469
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: payments for a car. He's not even with you.

470
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 3: I can't expect that.

471
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, she should have gotten all her money up from it.

472
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: I feel, Yes, what are your opinions on that she

473
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: should get back together with him until her lease is up?

474
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 2: Like, I wouldn't know why they broke up.

475
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: It sounded like it was kind of on him because

476
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: why would she do that?

477
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 5: Know when she got this break, Yeah, she needed to

478
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 5: gotv I mean, yep, you got, you got, You got

479
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 5: six more months, girl, write it out and then when

480
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 5: it's time to move out, then you can. But then

481
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 5: she got a down grade.

482
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 3: Who wants to downgrade?

483
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: She might got to find a teammate something.

484
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: Team, he said that he got.

485
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,479
Speaker 5: He's gonna see how she acts, he said, because if

486
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 5: she outside while I'm out with the next man, then

487
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 5: she needs Well you don't want to have to run

488
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 5: for another man to be laid bat.

489
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 3: Man, you broke up, it's over.

490
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,360
Speaker 2: But he committed, He gave her.

491
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: He gave her his word at the beginning of the

492
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 5: lease that for this entire year, no matter what, should

493
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 5: I got you.

494
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: Well, that's the problem.

495
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 5: If she should she should have got to pay the front.

496
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 2: I agree, that's what we're doing.

497
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 5: She should have got maybe like maybe he should have

498
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 5: paid like the six months up front.

499
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 2: So then now she you know what I'm.

500
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: Saun't was not get an apartment she can't afford?

501
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 4: Also done, come on boss talk Yeah, like I'm not

502
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 4: getting an apartment that I can't afford.

503
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying that if me and my

504
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: boyfriend break up, I can't pay for my rent. I mean,

505
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 1: I think that's silly. Don't put yourself in that position,

506
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 1: because if you would have gave her the money up front,

507
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: she probably would have spent it. If you're in a

508
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: position where you can't even pay your rent and I

509
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 1: give you the money up front, what makes me think

510
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: that's gonna be responsible. I mean, he didn't sound like

511
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: he cared about all that, but I agree. I'm just saying.

512
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: Somebody who would get an apartment that they can't afford

513
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: without their man paying half of it and then breaks

514
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: up with their man is not the type of person

515
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 1: that's gonna make sure that they responsibly take that lump sum.

516
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Game, I seen Anthony Edwards

529
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: A good guy before you got married. I was like,

530
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: even like in other relationships.

531
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 4: I was, there was a girl I remember, I'll never

532
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 4: forget say you too nice?

533
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 3: And I was like, so that made me a little

534
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 3: like harder show like you know what I mean. I

535
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 3: was like, okay, cool, like kind of shut me down.

536
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,479
Speaker 1: You're like, okay, bitch, yeah that's what you want, all right,

537
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:01,239
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

538
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 4: I'm just like, really was groomed to be that gentleman

539
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 4: for real, so in this you know, damn age. I

540
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 4: know it's like different, but yeah, that was like a

541
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 4: weird one for me. So I was like, all right, cool,

542
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 4: So I kind of shut it down. So I think

543
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 4: I had like a cool balance after her. And then

544
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 4: I think, Lamaiyah, like let me know that it was

545
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 4: okay to give a little more.

546
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: You you think there's something wrong with being too nice?

547
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: Like do you think she was right?

548
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 3: I think so I think there is.

549
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 4: You know, I had to learn that because girls still

550
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 4: want to feel like they got to chase you too

551
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 4: a little bit. I don't be too easy, like now

552
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 4: I'll run over you. You know what I'm saying, Like

553
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 4: it's a stampee. So I think it's that perfect balance

554
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 4: of keeping the chase alive on both sides, you know,

555
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 4: without being like childish.

556
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: So you are always a nice guy. Like what what

557
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: was it like how you were raised? I want to know,

558
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: because I don't know too many people that I could say, like,

559
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: too many guys unless they're just my friend, but like

560
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: I don't know too many guys who in relationships, especially

561
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: when they were young, I could be like, oh, they

562
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: were always like really good.

563
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 4: Yeah church, growing up, like sitting in the front row,

564
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 4: mom and dad passeds that PK energy.

565
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 3: You know.

566
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 4: I was literally on the front row every Sunday. So

567
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 4: my manners just like they're just there, you.

568
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 3: Know what I mean.

569
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 4: So when I met somebody also who just like love

570
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 4: love for real and I don't know that helpless romantic energy,

571
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 4: like we just clicked and it was a perfect amount

572
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 4: of opposites attracting.

573
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 2: At the same time.

574
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it was like we.

575
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 4: Ain't the same, we opposite high key now balance like

576
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like I want to stay

577
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 4: all night, she want to go home early. She loove key,

578
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 4: want to like pull up irish goodbye. When I went

579
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 4: to the bathroom, you know what I'm saying.

580
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 3: So it's like it's cool to have that that balance

581
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 3: and everything.

582
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, blence is everything.

583
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you think that doing this career early on, because

584
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 1: I know, like you said, being in a church was

585
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: a little bit of a way of rebelling against that.

586
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 3: The the part that I guess felt rebellious to me

587
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 3: was when I was like, all right, I want to

588
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 3: make R and B music.

589
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 4: They was tripping the whole church, like I grew up

590
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 4: in church, and they was like, yo, like the Sinners movie.

591
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, bro, bro, you know, I just

592
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 4: was like, yo, I gotta do this, Like this is

593
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 4: what I want to do, is what I'm called to do.

594
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,720

Speaker 1: because it's all understood. Yeah, and she is actually about

628
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: to be on the service too, So talk to me

629
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,680

630
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 3: Of she's the queen man. That was like the biggest feet.

631
00:30:45,840 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 6: You know, God, I got a.

632
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: At this point, this is.

633
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 3: It might be over.

634
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 4: But when I was definitely like excited, like my boys,

635
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 4: Scoop hit me and was like, yo, you want to

636
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 4: try to get Tea, I was like, what come on?

637
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 4: And he was already working with her, so he A

638
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 4: and R the project. So it was actually closer than

639
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 4: I even imagine. So I was already a fan and

640
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 4: when he mentioned it, it just worked out perfect. She

641
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 4: loved the song and it was originally supposed to be

642
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 4: on the first album, but when it wasn't done in time,

643
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, I'll.

644
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 3: Wait, Yeah, take your time, take the time.

645
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 4: And now God's time and like I'm chilling, like I

646
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 4: love this place in my career.

647
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 3: I'm not thirsty, I don't care you have you have that.

648
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: It's like chilling everything, and you know what, You're in

649
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 1: a place where it was also a good time for

650
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: you to take a risk. I feel like it's harder

651
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: to do that earlier, but now it's like, I'm mean,

652
00:31:58,760 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: so I want to do like A.

653
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 4: Exactly because it was a risk take yeah right, But

654
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 4: luckily with this genre, it allowed me to still stay

655
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 4: in the R and B energy, Like the vibe is

656
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 4: still R and B but the but the beats are

657
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 4: just you know, rhythmic and you can dance and you

658
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 4: could groove and it feel Yeah.

659
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: No, because if you think about some songs that have

660
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: really crossed over here, like justin Bieber, you know, yeah,

661
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: Selena Gohman, I'm Chris Brown, you know, yeah, like it's

662
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: all it all is like R and B and afrobeats.

663
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: And I think that the way that things have been

664
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: going internationally, those collapse are great for them too, like

665
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: they enjoy No for real.

666
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:39,120

676
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 4: in a way that I didn't think this was coming.

677
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,120

00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 4: in their rooms.

687
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

688
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,400

00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,520

00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 6: the Orange.

692
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: No, they don't play like they do it a big

693
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: you know. You know what else I think too, I

694
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: think for so long, like when we were younger, Africa

695
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: was looked at a places you know, like used to

696
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: see on TV. Yeah, and we didn't even like coming

697
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: to America, you know. Eddie Murphy's character was like this

698
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: prince and it came to queens. But just the things

699
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: that on TV we don't know, like how much wealth

700
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: is really But I feel like we are really seeing

701
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: that now. Oh yeah, which I love.

702
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:13,240
Speaker 3: Listen.

703
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 4: I was over there sitting, uh not courtside, but seaside,

704
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, that's what they call it.

705
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 4: The City I Stadium is called seaside and I'm like,

706
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 4: this is just I'm not talking about the water.

707
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 3: It was beautiful. I'm like, if people seen this, why

708
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:28,760
Speaker 3: wouldn't we move here?

709
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 4: It's crazy, especially the amount of stuff that we can

710
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 4: do online on the internet now, it's like, bro, it

711
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 4: really don't matter where you at because we're consuming the

712
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,280
Speaker 4: you know, the information and content on our phone everything.

713
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: You know. What I like to is that sometimes like

714
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: we get so used to doing what we do that

715
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: it's hard to expand out of that and like grow

716
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: into other spaces. But now you're able to grow into

717
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: a whole nother space, yah, and feel comfortable in it.

718
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. That's the best.

719
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 4: Mean. I think when I went out there, that's when

720
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 4: I was like, I felt confident. I felt loved because

721
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 4: the way that they treated me and they welcomed me

722
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 4: and received me, it was like.

723
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like, Yo, this is the family.

724
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 4: Like I feel like, you know, this could be home,

725
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 4: you know, And it's so much different priorities out there.

726
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 4: They're not worried about the rims, they're not worried about

727
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 4: the jewelry, they're not worry about none of that. It's

728
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 4: really just like, Okay, we outside, we're on the street,

729
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 4: were smoking and we just letting the day pass having conversation.

730
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:29,720
Speaker 1: All right, now I want to talk to you about

731
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: some of your music and even songs that you wrote.

732
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,879
Speaker 1: Some I ask you a couple of questions. All right,

733
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 1: when you think about a song that is the most

734
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,839
Speaker 1: reflective of your marriage, what song would it be?

735
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:43,720
Speaker 3: Day after Forever?

736
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,359
Speaker 1: Oh?

737
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, after forever.

738
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 1: That's a wedding song right there.

739
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 3: That's that's definitely the one.

740
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:56,720
Speaker 4: Like when I when I play that song with Lamia

741
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 4: in the room, she gone, shit it here, And I

742
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 4: think that one.

743
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 3: You know, we got a close movie video.

744
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 4: It was like that was the song, you know, like

745
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 4: not the movie, but the marriage, Like the mayor the

746
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 4: wedding video was like that song.

747
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: Okay. Now, if you have to think about a song

748
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: that was inspired by a particularly amazing bedroom night, yeah,

749
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: what song would that be?

750
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 3: Liquid Courage? Liquid Courage?

751
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 4: She listened to Eric Belan's Liquid Courage s feature in

752
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 4: Victoria Money love Her.

753
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 2: Now, that's the one we love her.

754
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 3: Man.

755
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: I think about Victoria Monette's whole journey and becoming a

756
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: star who she is because I think, like sometimes artists

757
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,479
Speaker 1: nowadays don't have the patience to know that she ain't

758
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: gonna happen most times overnight, and if it does, it

759
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,439
Speaker 1: may not last, right, you know, And she grinded it out.

760
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 2: Yes, can't you grind way through?

761
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: I used to work at Atlantic when she signed to

762
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 1: Atlantic Is super early on when she did like a

763
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: Hook for t I and they didn't really know what

764
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 1: to do with her. And then now you I know,

765
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,479
Speaker 1: they like dropped that ball.

766
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, the sound was totally different then it was like

767
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 4: more of a pop sound.

768
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 3: I remember that she was working with Tommy.

769
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: How many artists would you say, percentage wise like got

770
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,439
Speaker 1: it right on their first deal, because it's a rare thing.

771
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 4: I'll say zero, donut. I mean, you know, maybe it

772
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 4: happens like Bryson. Bryson got got got a good you know,

773
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 4: first album, you know when he did Trap, So he

780
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,520

Speaker 3: That's what he did.

788
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 4: He did that for Immature the group as well, so

789
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,799

792
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 4: all the whole school stuff. So I got the last

793
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,919
Speaker 4: tale I feel like of what the music industry used

794
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 4: to be, you know what I'm saying. So I get

795
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 4: to carry that in this new whatever it is with me.

796
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,440

797
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:51,760
Speaker 1: with women and stuff like that.

798
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 4: Too, Yeah, how to answer questions, how to deal with women,

799
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 4: Like at first when I was in the music business,

800
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 4: it was like, say you're.

801
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 1: Single, you know, say that, what's the thing.

802
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 3: The whole girl at home? Just having a.

803
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 1: Three kids at home?

804
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 3: And yeah, I'm saying with ladies, from.

805
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 5: Your expert opinion, what would you say as to why

806
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 5: we don't have as many boy male up boy groups anymore?

807
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 3: Egos?

808
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 4: I think everybody feeling like I'm the superstar. I'm the

809
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 4: solo artist.

810
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 3: It's like, hey, nobody, come and.

811
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 2: See you, because there was a time when that was

812
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 2: the thing.

813
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: Yeah for the group of the group.

814
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 4: In the group, it's coming back. I think now it's

815
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 4: coming back. And tip you gotta flow on a on

816
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 4: a male's tip. I've been seeing this group called two

817
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 4: BYG that's really been killing it. They just signed a

818
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 4: death jam, so I think it could be a comeback

819
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 4: for it, especially now because it's so rare and it

820
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 4: was so dope, you know what I mean seeing that

821
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 4: that performance, like when they did the other Netflix show

822
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 4: about like baking the band. Oh yeah, And ain't it

823
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 4: so much more interesting than just like maybe American idols,

824
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 4: like the person is like I feel you, but now.

825
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 3: I'm looking at this whole group and it's so much

826
00:39:58,520 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 3: more enshaming.

827
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,919
Speaker 1: What about your ego, you know, because for you, you've

828
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 1: written some of like the biggest hits consistently, but then

829
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: also as a solo artist, you know, that's a whole different.

830
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 3: Like vibe for you, it's a different vibe.

831
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 1: And so earlier on, like how was your ego when

832
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: it came to like shifting from that and were the

833
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: artists that I feel like you have a good relationship

834
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: with people so they like you personally also, But was

835
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: there ever times when you felt like damn I did,

836
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 1: and I just.

837
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 3: Need you know a lot it was. I think.

838
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 4: I just I'm glad that I never like acted on

839
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 4: emotion though, you know, because I could have tricked off everything,

840
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 4: like all the features that did come around, because at first,

841
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 4: as a songwriter, you gotta realize, like yo, you got

842
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 4: to build yourself up to be at that level.

843
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 3: As an artist, you not the same level as your

844
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 3: songwriter career, you know.

845
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 4: And I think that's why people fail and it's hard

846
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 4: for them to transition because they look at themselves like

847
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 4: people should treat them as the same celebrity. Like me,

848
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 4: as a songwriter, I'm talking the biggest shit, but as

849
00:40:58,920 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 4: an artist, I'm for show life.

850
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 3: Thanks, thanks man.

851
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, Because like I really am

852
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 4: a realist, Like is it number one?

853
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 3: You want to crime? Get out of here?

854
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 4: Number one for eighteen weeks, you know what I'm saying.

855
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 4: So I'm a realist, Like I'm a business man. So

856
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 4: it's like for my music, it's like I don't compare it.

857
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 4: I just be like, yo, bro, you independent? Yeah, okay, independent,

858
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 4: it's okay.

859
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: Have you ever been a song that you're like I

860
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 1: wish I kept for myself who.

861
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 3: In the beginning, Like I wanted new flame? I remember.

862
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 4: I was like I hear Verset Simmons, I had Teena

863
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 4: David everybody like, yo, I remember we did this song

864
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 4: for Chris Brown, Like you think you're still gonna use it?

865
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:43,439
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, we just got.

866
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: Absolutely that's a single.

867
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:48,439
Speaker 3: Okay.

868
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 4: I taught back, like, what about what about love More?

869
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 4: It's like, bro, we just got NICKI to love More

870
00:41:58,800 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 4: and a new flame?

871
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 1: That's crazy? Now, now what about the space of Like

872
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: I see a lot of people moving into country music

873
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 1: too and dibbling and dabbling. There is that something you

874
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: thought about too?

875
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:16,919
Speaker 3: I did in like I wrote a song called never

876
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 3: Dropped It?

877
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 1: Why not?

878
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 3: Oh No, I just like, don't do it. It was

879
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 3: like left side, the right side and the shoulders, you

880
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 3: know what I mean, don't do it, don't do it,

881
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 3: do it? And I just it was like I'm gonna

882
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 3: do it. I'm not gonna do it. But I didn't

883
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 3: do it.

884
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 5: I think you should do it, you know what I was.

885
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: Line dance, but.

886
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 4: I'm such the like artist artists like you seem you've

887
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:53,720
Speaker 4: seen Brown Sugar with most Yes, that's my music.

888
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm left you one day, like sit down and go

889
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: over things that you just never put out that you can't.

890
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 3: My crazy.

891
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that would be interesting for people to see,

892
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: like and the reasons why because sometimes, like you know,

893
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: we can second guess, like you never know what could

894
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: come out of it, but I would know, right. Yeah.

895
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 1: I went to Black Rodeo a couple of like last month.

896
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 1: That is such an experience. It was in Scottsdale, Arizona.

897
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: And when I tell you, it was lit, Okay, I

898
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 1: can see that. Yeah, that's fire, you know. So I

899
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: just I mean, and I think that people also have

900
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: to understand how like country music is not like white

901
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: people's music, it's not black people's music.

902
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 3: He's telling them stories. Yeah, I love it all right,

903
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 3: y'all might get it.

904
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 1: I want to hear it because I already know this is.

905
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm gonna show you the email with the twenty fifteen.

906
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 4: It was a real country song. But also you know

907
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 4: what I mean, went to Nashville recently and did like

908
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 4: a country trip and wrote songs like maybe like I

909
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 4: don't know, like seven months ago. Never put none of

910
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 4: those out either, But so.

911
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:06,879
Speaker 2: You got the whole country.

912
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,879
Speaker 3: You got the whole country. Lo key, But I went out.

913
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 3: You know, I'll be putting different hats on artists.

914
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,760
Speaker 1: Songwriter, yeah, cowboy hat.

915
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was good three cowboy.

916
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 1: You know what I love about Nashville is you can

917
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: just walk up and down the strip and walk into random.

918
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 2: I've never been.

919
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: It's a time.

920
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 3: What do they say.

921
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,359
Speaker 1: It's like it's like the white people is Atlanta.

922
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: They really say that.

923
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 3: But there's like downtown like we have, like I hear

924
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:46,240
Speaker 3: a little bars.

925
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: I never had the experience because they actually have the

926
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 1: National Museum of African American Music downtown. Yeah, there too.

927
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 4: One back though, one back for sure because my boy

928
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 4: just told me he got a big compound out there.

929
00:44:59,080 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 3: It's like a studio.

930
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 1: So we don't now we need to know. We need

931
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 1: some advice on keeping it spicy. Okay, okay, So what

932
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,320
Speaker 1: are some things that you do that keeps it spicy

933
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: at home? Because you've been how long have you been

934
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: together with ten years? Ten years? And we all aiming for,

935
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: you know, for ten years. So what are some things

936
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: that you have evolved into doing because I have to

937
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 1: imagine the relationship is so different now than it was

938
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 1: when you first started.

939
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 4: You know, we're different. I think I think it was

940
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,719

00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: of everything like the whole everything was on journal, but

1016
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,720
Speaker 1: it was I think that was so dope.

1017
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:31,919
Speaker 3: Yeah that was fine.

1018
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,520

00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: like live with and so love.

1020
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 3: His story too.

1021
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:42,439
Speaker 1: Yeah that was crazy. Listen the fact that even thinking

1022
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,359
Speaker 1: about his first manager, he was trying to get out

1023
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,880
Speaker 1: the deal you know, for for you were your deals

1024
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 1: in the beginning for you, because they always say artists

1025
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,240
Speaker 1: go through that, Like I signed that deal, this happened.

1026
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: I got to take an advantage of were you good

1027
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,280
Speaker 1: early on or did you have to learn?

1028
00:49:58,400 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 3: I had?

1029
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 4: I had to deal with that out of and realize

1030
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,359
Speaker 4: I had to learn, you know what I mean? Like

1031
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:09,319
Speaker 4: when I first signist Sony, there's this thing called md RC, and.

1032
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 3: I really didn't understand what it was.

1033
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 4: But it's basically like you're a quota that you have

1034
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 4: to recoup not only financially, but percentage wise.

1035
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 3: It's strictly percentage wise.

1036
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 4: So imagine when they say one hundred percent, right, you

1037
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 4: think a song is one hundred percent, All right, that's

1038
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 4: one song, But if you have one hundredercent three hundred percent,

1039
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 4: that one percent of this song if there was three

1040
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 4: co writers, so you got now you got the song.

1041
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 4: Fifty percent is the beat, so now you only got

1042
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 4: fifty to work with. Now you got three writers, so

1043
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 4: that's whatever. I don't know, sixteen sixty six something like that.

1044
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 4: But the artist probably like, I need twenty percent because

1045
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:57,439
Speaker 4: this is my song.

1046
00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:58,480
Speaker 3: I don't write anything.

1047
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 4: But get down to thirty percent, and now you only

1048
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 4: get ten percent, even if you wrote much or like

1049
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 4: in the session, you was that one and everybody else

1050
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 4: was just like off off your vibe. So now you

1051
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,399
Speaker 4: wrote the whole song you feel like, and you only

1052
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 4: get ten percent. So now instead of one song, you

1053
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 4: have to have ten songs to get to that hunted,

1054
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 4: to get to get the Hunted, and so you have

1055
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,399
Speaker 4: two hundred and three hundred percent. It's like I didn't

1056
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 4: understand that that way to count. I just look at

1057
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 4: it as like one song, my song, but it was like, damn,

1058
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 4: why it could be ten songs, and it was some

1059
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,280
Speaker 4: songs that it was even more.

1060
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:32,760
Speaker 3: Than three writers. So it was like, damn two percent.

1061
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 4: I got two point five on this big ass hit

1062
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 4: and it was a sample, so not a sample one.

1063
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,920
Speaker 1: It What did I see celebrating getting out of their

1064
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,479
Speaker 1: deal recently with Boy Yeah Boy it was hip boy. Yeah,

00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:46,360

00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 4: when he got out of the jar, remember was free hit,

1069
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,840
Speaker 4: but now it's hit free because he's free, you know.

1070
00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,720

1073
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:09,640

00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 1: I like that, And what I think is great is

1078
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 1: also the fact that you you like to educate artists

1079
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,799
Speaker 1: too and put them on game about like this industry

1080
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,399

1081
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,840
Speaker 1: have known then what you know now, or had somebody like,

1082
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 1: did you ever have like a mentor?

1085

00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 4: game when it's when it comes to like songwriting, and

1087
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:47,200

Speaker 3: The boys are freaking.

1100
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:23,439
Speaker 1: It all makes sense.

1101

Speaker 2: The boys are freaking don't hear that?

1102
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:29,239

00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,920
Speaker 3: know you conducted, but nah, you quick, quick.

1105
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 2: You know.

1106
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 1: Way when he walked in, I told him, I said,

1107
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: did you hear my open verse challenge for Vogue? He

1108
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: was like, you did one? I was like, I'm kidding,

1109
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 1: But you know how amazing that is when you post

1110
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 1: an artists that does like the open Verse challenge, and

1111
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: there were so many good ones. You actually ended up

1112
00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 1: posting five women and five men. Yes, you know for

1113
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:04,799
Speaker 1: the challenge. How specially that is something like that could

1114
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:05,960
Speaker 1: like get somebody signed.

1115
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,280
Speaker 2: How did you come up with that idea?

1116
00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:11,320
Speaker 4: So normally I see a lot of people do challenges

1117
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 4: after the song is out.

1118
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 3: The song is out, I'm trying to market my song.

1119
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 3: I'm trying to promote my song.

1120
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 4: Let's do a challenge and then everybody just the versus

1121
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 4: and whoever wins, we give them this or whatever. But

1122
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 4: I was like, how about we do the challenge before

1123
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 4: the song comes out and then pick a winner and

1124
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 4: let them feature on the song, do the music video, perform.

1125
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 2: On stage when Yeah, that's fire?

Speaker 2: That's such.

1129
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:38,719

Speaker 5: That could be life That could really be a life

1135
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:49,799
Speaker 5: changing situation for that person.

1136
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:54,680

Speaker 2: I will drop tomorrow too late.

1138
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to help, like listen, I would say. I

1139
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:01,919
Speaker 1: was in Detroit, right and I was at the bar

1140
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,919
Speaker 1: at this place called the Roost, And so the woman

1141
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: working behind the bar, she's like, oh, I'm an artist,

1142
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:08,399
Speaker 1: do you know? I want to listen to her music?

1143
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 1: And it was amazing really, and I was like, I

1144
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 1: want to help you, like I don't know what, but

1145
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 1: I did like a little shine of light on her

1146
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,759
Speaker 1: and posted it. But she was so I loved her voice,

1147
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 1: but I don't even know, like for an artist, and

1148
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 1: what do you even do? Like what do you know

1149
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:23,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying?

1150
00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 4: Like, Yeah, man, I think when you had that, when

1151
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 4: you had a record, for example, you know, you got

1152
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 4: an EP. Maybe that start is like, Okay, we need

1153
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,160
Speaker 4: to blow this one song up, you know. So that

1154
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:38,800
Speaker 4: means performing it everywhere, music video, servicing it, you know,

1155
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 4: to radio everywhere.

1156
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 3: And at the same time, we need to let the

1157
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 3: people know who you are. Right, you could do those

1158
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:47,680
Speaker 3: two things in tandem.

1159
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 1: It's good. See. I like formula. I like tangible advice.

1160
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 3: Because who am I and who are you? Why should

1161
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,719
Speaker 3: I listen to you? Yeah?

1162
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 1: I mean I think you think it was easier when

1163
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,720
Speaker 1: you started, or it's easier now.

1164
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,280
Speaker 4: When I started back in the day, it was easier

1165
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 4: because it was about with the music.

1166
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 3: But now it's not about the music but any music business.

1167
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 1: That's true. See, I was thinking that sometimes.

1168
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 2: Act socials what about the numbers?

1169
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,839
Speaker 1: Like But you know what's interesting because I think now

1170
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,879
Speaker 1: you don't need a label necessarily at first, right, and

1171
00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:26,960
Speaker 1: then I think you don't even need to leave your

1172
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,239
Speaker 1: damn house. So in some ways I feel like but

1173
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:31,720
Speaker 1: then there's also just so much.

1174
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,320
Speaker 4: It feels like it's easier now though you gave me

1175
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,280
Speaker 4: because somebody, you know, you could see somebody else go crazy,

1176
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 4: and it's like, oh, I could do that, But then

1177
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,319
Speaker 4: you try it and it's like m hm, hey, it's

1178
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 4: ain't it ain't go viral?

1179
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 3: What happens?

1180
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:48,399
Speaker 1: I think you could have a moment, but you can't

1181
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,879
Speaker 1: have a career. That's what's harder, you know.

1182
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 3: And that's and that's low key harmful.

1183
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,360
Speaker 4: I love Tyler, I love her energy, I love her performance,

1184
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 4: love her singing, but that Water song.

1185
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 3: Was so big huge.

1186
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:02,879
Speaker 1: That song was huge.

1187
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:06,759
Speaker 3: It was so big that it's like it's tough to

1188
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:09,680
Speaker 3: beat that.

1189
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean she has some good songs after that, but.

1190
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 2: It ain't Water.

1191
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 3: I have a question, it's how you God?

1192
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: Damn God.

1193
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 5: So anyway, there's this AI artist that's making the waves

1223
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 1: You know what your podcast should be?

1224
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 3: I got an idea, but you go first.

1225
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 1: I want you to like sit down and when you're

1226
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: working with people, talk to them about what's going on

1227
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:21,880
Speaker 1: in their life. And then at the end of it,

1228
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 1: there's a song Mmm.

1229
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 3: Like that so.

1230
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 1: Quick with that, you could really do that like the episode?

1231
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 4: Yes, all right, so look this is beautiful. My idea

1232
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,960
Speaker 4: is half to that. That's the other half that I

1233
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 4: needed that I didn't realize. So my podcast idea, I've

1234
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 4: shot three episodes so far. Give it's called Lyrical Lab Podcast.

1235
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw one post on it.

1236
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 4: I only did one. Okay, I did, so, look there's

1237
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:03,200
Speaker 4: a can but I needed that. I didn't realize I

1238
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,920
Speaker 4: needed that. So the idea is, I'm in with somebody

1239
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:06,640
Speaker 4: all the time.

1240
01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:09,400
Speaker 3: All the time, I'm in with some kind of artists,

1241
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 3: and I'll.

1242
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:13,040
Speaker 4: Be like, yo, before we get in, hey you cool

1243
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 4: with us tapping it up for five minutes. The idea

1244
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 4: is a quick conversation and because I'm gonna be with

1245
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 4: them alaty at the studio, so it's like, yo, you

1246
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:22,160
Speaker 4: mind doing this for me and put the cameras on them,

1247
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:24,040
Speaker 4: gonna give your hit and just.

1248
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 3: Chop it up with me. Cool, So what you've been on,

1249
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 3: what you've been up to? Talk to me?

01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 4: Simple convo, maybe talk about some important events, talk about

1251
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 4: the music. But then that was it. I stopped it there,

1252
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 4: as opposed to now we got in our studio and

1253
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 4: we did our song and they got what they needed.

1254
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 4: But I didn't record us playing a song back after.

1255
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:46,960
Speaker 4: And by the way, this is the song we did today, right.

1256
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it could be a rough version of it. Yeah,

1257
01:00:51,840 --> 01:01:00,200
Speaker 1: I think I like that in depth. Everyone again, as

1258
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 1: you know what, like we just did, this music is

1259
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 1: therapy for you fresh So imagine sitting down and having

1260
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 1: a conversation with somebody. It's therapy for them. And now

1261
01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: there's a song and now the audience connects to it

1262
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: even more because I heard that whole conversation.

1263
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 5: I was there for the whole process. But yeah, now

1264
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 5: saying in my phone and I'm listening to this ship, well,

1265
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 5: I'm gett dressed.

1266
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:22,120
Speaker 1: It all makes sense.

1267
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 3: It all makes.

1268
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 4: Out right now, No, because it's like, but that's how

1269
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 4: we get the songs.

1270
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:33,920
Speaker 3: We talk about it, you know what I mean. Like

1271
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:35,320
Speaker 3: even with Chris Brown Indigo, it.

1272
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 4: Was like, yeah, I love that song, but I couldn't

1273
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 4: say I wanted it because in the session I was like, Yo,

1274
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 4: what's up what you're thinking today?

1275
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 3: He said, what an album is called Indigo? Boom? You

1276
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 3: gave me one note? Okay, dope, So what you mean

1277
01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:46,120
Speaker 3: the song is called Indigo?

1278
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 4: Well, you know, like I wanted to be like real colorful,

1279
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 4: like everything I'm doing it's gonna be mad boom.

1280
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 3: That's one I said, you know what I mean. I

1281
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 3: said all kinds of shit about colors and.

1282
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,680
Speaker 4: Then yeah, like he gave me all the notes in

1283
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 4: conversation to make the song.

1284
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 3: So yeah, I co wrote it with him. But that

1285
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,200
Speaker 3: is his song, you know, that's his ship.

1286
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:07,400
Speaker 4: So it's like for people to see the reveal from

1287
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 4: the consumption of the idea when it's like if people

1288
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 4: were to hear like, Okay, that's an idea, and then

1289
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 4: the way I can articulate it.

1290
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 5: And then you execute it flawlessly, come on, executed period.

1291
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so true.

1292
01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 4: People don't see it, but that's really the magic. Like

1293
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,280
Speaker 4: y'all hear the song and y'all see the song. Yeah,

1294
