Speaker 1: I ain't never been nowhere like that. Like they're really
Speaker 1: from the same ship, just a different hood, you see
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like it's different city, different states. So
Speaker 1: it was like me going in fuck right at home,
Speaker 1: like niggas they showed me love like I knew them
Speaker 1: all my life. Yeah, I mean you're holding it, you're
Speaker 1: holding down the you know, the set on the other
Speaker 1: side allegedly, you know what I'm saying, shout out to
Speaker 1: Nip though. Man, how was that though? Like cause I
Speaker 1: think a lot of people, you know l A obviously
Speaker 1: you know the origins of a lot of gangs are here,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And and did you always
Speaker 1: have like big homies that were out here or like
Speaker 1: you know, I only knew the neighborhood niggas from East
Speaker 1: Coast right, you know, but more or less through this
Speaker 1: rapping and tapped me in with Well, really, let me
Speaker 1: be real, you gotta be tapped in with somebody if
Speaker 1: you East Coast cripping jack in the West Coast, you
Speaker 1: feel me set, you know what I'm saying. So I
Speaker 1: heard of him feel me names was brought up to me,
Speaker 1: but I ain't get to actually be around and ship.
Speaker 1: So that in itself for me was such a big thing,
Speaker 1: like for them to really take me in with no embrace,
Speaker 1: embrace me fully, you know what I'm saying. Like, so
Speaker 1: I felt, like I said, right at home, home away
Speaker 1: from home. That's amazing. For people who don't know you
Speaker 1: play basketball, that was that that was your original like
Speaker 1: dream was to do the basketball, go to that was
Speaker 1: your original thing, right, how far did you get hooping Juco?
Speaker 1: So junior college? Junior college on need to like a
Speaker 1: semester and a half. That was after that mester in
Speaker 1: a half, and then it was it was back to
Speaker 1: KANNARSI where'd you play junior college at Swoye Jefferson to
Speaker 1: Upstate State New York, Canada? Oh shit, like thirty minutes
Speaker 1: from Toronto. So you was like, right at the border.
Speaker 1: Did you ever go over to Toronto? I heard it's
Speaker 1: hard to get into Canada if you if you're like
Speaker 1: I heard it, it's easier to get into Mexico than
Speaker 1: it is to get into Canada. I heard they don't
Speaker 1: funk around at the Canadian border. Yeah, I even I
Speaker 1: didn't even go by your two ones. You're telling me
Speaker 1: you got to go job there. Ain't have no call, right,
Speaker 1: So it's not like I was from me. I was
Speaker 1: just like I heard about it minutes away. Fuck it,
Speaker 1: fuck it. So once you left college came back to
Speaker 1: your neighborhood, what point in time, I mean, obviously around
Speaker 1: that area your whole life, but at what point in
Speaker 1: time would you really start to get kind of active
Speaker 1: in the quote unquote you know, your your area as
Speaker 1: far as you know, basketball's in your past, you know.
Speaker 1: But like I said, I was always jacking it even
Speaker 1: before that, I wasn't like, you know, it was always,
Speaker 1: like I said, something that was in me, not on me.
Speaker 1: So I jack crip before I was cripped. I walk
Speaker 1: around with a flag around my head, take the train,
Speaker 1: all of that, right, it was even on a set.
Speaker 1: Feel me like that was just it was just like
Speaker 1: I said, it was something. It was just I fucked
Speaker 1: through the heavy that I fucked with, the with the
Speaker 1: with the whole culture. And I was from I'm from there,
Speaker 1: so it's like it was a no brainer by the
Speaker 1: time I turned like seventeen eighteen, like, feel me be
Speaker 1: fully active man that area and that that was kind
Speaker 1: of the area like that that was where you grew
Speaker 1: up with was was kind of that was the section
Speaker 1: that it was essentially that was around you anyway. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was already. It wasn't like I could have avoided it.
Speaker 1: I ain't go to no private, no private schools or
Speaker 1: I was in public schools from me and I was
Speaker 1: in one of the one of the one of the
Speaker 1: bad high schools too. At that public school, so feel me.
Speaker 1: But more or less, yeah, I'm a product of my environment.
Speaker 1: But I flipped the script. You know what I'm say,
Speaker 1: not for sure. Man, Now you gotta take what they
Speaker 1: try to use to hold you back and let it
Speaker 1: push you forward. So that's what I did. That's what
Speaker 1: you're doing man. For people who don't know how, I mean,
Speaker 1: when did you actually start rapping like it was in
Speaker 1: the pandemic? Right? Yeah? No, no, no no, that's the one
Speaker 1: two words because I got locked in the pandemic. But
Speaker 1: like I used to just boom like outside the Man's
Speaker 1: Bandit Jogger. They was rappers, feel me do what I
Speaker 1: was doing my ones and tools I was. I was
Speaker 1: never a rap. I was into that. But they were
Speaker 1: telling me, you'll pull up film me. I'll go smoke
Speaker 1: cool it, film me Monlucual one two jen zis drinker
Speaker 1: lit cool and after that I'll just be chilling and
Speaker 1: if they get tired, I try some shit. You got
Speaker 1: the look, you got the voice, go do that shit
Speaker 1: because I'll try it. But I never I never really
Speaker 1: took to it, you know, like it was just like
Speaker 1: that's just something there. Never Yeah, So I never put
Speaker 1: out a truck. I'll say before Corona had about four
Speaker 1: tracks and like it was mainly features and the other
Speaker 1: ones was just dumb ship Like one time I was
Speaker 1: mad drunk, I just made a freestyle barely anyway, these
Speaker 1: were online. I ain't never dropped nothing, so they were
Speaker 1: just on your phone. Niggas are being a call head
Speaker 1: out the window like it's the littlest track. But niggas
Speaker 1: always took to my shiit because niggas know what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about, and for me, that's really what it is.
Speaker 1: So but I'll say when I really say, it's that time.
Speaker 1: It was like Corona two words came home right after
Speaker 1: that LinkedIn with my boy Bob and that was Rowland Controlling.
Speaker 1: Was that your first official release, my first official release,
Speaker 1: and on top of that, you know, it was really
Speaker 1: like from beginning to end, freestyle all off the top
Speaker 1: of your head six and the way it happened like
Speaker 1: it's just I heard the beat. I'm thinking to myself,
Speaker 1: this ship is crazy. Told my man's running back, put
Speaker 1: down my phone right there, put the recorder down straight.
Speaker 1: Oh that's crazy. And at that time where like, you know,
Speaker 1: because at the time you didn't have a following you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. What what? No social media? That's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. What what what what platform? Did that really
Speaker 1: start to heat up on? Oh? Let me that's a
Speaker 1: story too. I never really got to, you know, tell nobody.
Speaker 1: But when I first came home, I got into a
Speaker 1: little situation with some we're not gonna say names, but
Speaker 1: with some I say, not the other side, but people
Speaker 1: who was portraying to be the other side. And I
Speaker 1: wanted to do something about it. But you know today
Speaker 1: telling your chill cause like, yeah, I don't even go
Speaker 1: that feel me smart move. So I went on the
Speaker 1: Love my Man's love on Facebook at the time, Facebook,
Speaker 1: Yeah you feel me? I still I have no social media.
Speaker 1: So I went on his phone and on his ship.
Speaker 1: We did like a good I'll say about two and
Speaker 1: a half hours. Me in a Telly that night. Niggas
Speaker 1: is all. We're just chilling. Some bitches was about to
Speaker 1: pull up. So we were on the love sit and
Speaker 1: then it just started jriinking. Like at one point it
Speaker 1: had like one hundred viewers and overaller had thirty two
Speaker 1: thousand at the end of it, like on the Facebook Live,
Speaker 1: on the Facebook lives, so people are like, oh feel me.
Speaker 1: They oh, look at this thuskin and talk politics, listen
Speaker 1: to the voice mad shit. It was mainly the females though,
Speaker 1: you know, like niggas ain't never going to be the
Speaker 1: first ones to gravitate, especially when, of course, of course
Speaker 1: they're going most likely hate they. So the females really,
Speaker 1: that's my The females and the kids, I would say,
Speaker 1: is who I really look to and appreciate the most.
Speaker 1: Because niggas be bandwagon. They they just oh now the
Speaker 1: bitches is all around him. Now we got to be
Speaker 1: around him because we want some pussy too, like me.
Speaker 1: So it's like them two sex and them my niggas
Speaker 1: of course, but anything outside of that, I'll show my
Speaker 1: respects to the females, the kids feel me. But yeah,
Speaker 1: jinked from there, it was like niggas make Instagram, make
Speaker 1: Instagram making. I made it June twenty seventh. I still
Speaker 1: got the first. I got my all child, but you
Speaker 1: can see it said from me June twenty seventh. This
Speaker 1: was my first post. So that was your first post?
Speaker 1: And what day what day did you put rolling and
Speaker 1: controlling out? I don't know what day was that hat July. Wow,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, yeah, and I ain't really have no I
Speaker 1: have faith in it because through you know, like I said,
Speaker 1: through Bobby, I was able to get signed. But it
Speaker 1: wasn't like he knew I had it in me. I'm
Speaker 1: just like, I ain't never do this before. But I'm
Speaker 1: going head I'm going head first, like I ain't thinking
Speaker 1: about nothing at in the back of my mind. It's like, damn,
Speaker 1: it's something new to me. I got high hopes, so
Speaker 1: if this ship don't go the way I expected to go,
Speaker 1: it's not gonna break me. It's gonna make me go
Speaker 1: even harder. But at the same time, it was like
Speaker 1: this gotta be it. This highs to be it? What
Speaker 1: was Bobby could probably answer this better than you can't,
Speaker 1: but he's standing over here. But I'm curious because at
Speaker 1: the time you had no music out. You just created
Speaker 1: an Instagram account. So for someone like Bobby Fisher from
Speaker 1: Empire to step out and like really see something in you,
Speaker 1: you know, that's that that that doesn't happen nowadays. Often
Speaker 1: it's easy to come in when something's already on fire
Speaker 1: and poor gasoline on him, but it's hard. It's harder
Speaker 1: to start the fire, feel me, So like I said,
Speaker 1: that's somebody who believed in me before anybody else did
Speaker 1: around me. He's seen it feel me and like that
Speaker 1: to me was the biggest, the biggest, you know, I
Speaker 1: think somebody could have ever different me. I was pop
Speaker 1: broke and ain't had no breech. He's stealing the people
Speaker 1: in my people's crab about my brother. Matter of fact,
Speaker 1: when I came home, went back to my people's crib
Speaker 1: and shit. But you know, Nigga ain't had no real options.
Speaker 1: He gave me your option. But I presented myself as
Speaker 1: you know me. He said, I see that this is him.
Speaker 1: You feel me like just who he is from the
Speaker 1: time you wake up tom to go to sleep, feel me.
Speaker 1: Nothing changes about him. So, like I said, Bobby, that's
Speaker 1: what I mean. Man, we won't be together. Well yeah
Speaker 1: six So yeah, and you guys have I mean, he's
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys got I think that at the moment,
Speaker 1: you probably have a lot of generic fans who probably
Speaker 1: see you on Instagram but probably are your nay sayers.
Speaker 1: I'd say, who you know because you got a few
Speaker 1: records out, But I think that, oh yeah, they don't
Speaker 1: know what's they don't know what's coming. But those who
Speaker 1: not you got to tune them in. That's up to me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure, body else but me to say, well, look,
Speaker 1: I'm going to show you what I'm made of and
Speaker 1: what I'm capable of everything. Take tom though. So that's
Speaker 1: why I ain't really rushing nothing. You can never say
Speaker 1: you've seen me try to force it, waiting my turn.
Speaker 1: Through everything I ever did in life, I always waited
Speaker 1: my turn. That was a constant for me. So when
Speaker 1: everybody was politicing on Instagram, this he trying to be this,
Speaker 1: trying to do this, I was working, you see what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So when it did come to time now
Speaker 1: for me to perform, there was no There's no flaws there.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You gotta make sure when
Speaker 1: nobody's looking is when you're doing that. So now that
Speaker 1: you're looking, there is no denying it, right right right.
Speaker 1: I think too, a lot of people who would be
Speaker 1: in your position because you obviously compared so much to
Speaker 1: Pop Smoke, who's from your from your area, because you
Speaker 1: guys sold, you guys went to elementary school together. You
Speaker 1: guys are from the same hood. Like I think that
Speaker 1: a lot of people would run from that. But I
Speaker 1: feel like you've paid a lot of respect and also
Speaker 1: have taken taken on the challenge of saying yes, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe I was inspired by Pop of course, but at
Speaker 1: the same time, I'm gonna show you I'm my own dude.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying is all around you and
Speaker 1: you should look to them eyes motivation, nothing less, nothing
Speaker 1: more For me, like I watched other people portray you know,
Speaker 1: like certain things like yeah, we was this, we was that,
Speaker 1: and the actuality using that for cloak, You're trying to
Speaker 1: get your own name up based off another person. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm paying my respects, but through like I said, my
Speaker 1: work ethic and my job, you're going to see how
Speaker 1: we separate, how we differ well, but it actuality, we
Speaker 1: want the same filmy flows do one way in, no
Speaker 1: way out. Niggas know that there it is man there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: For people who don't know your area, Canarsi is an
Speaker 1: area that is probably one of the least known outside
Speaker 1: of New York. You know, we're in l A. We
Speaker 1: hear Brooklyn, we know what Brownsville is. We know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I feel like Canarsi probably has gotten the least
Speaker 1: amount overlooked for a long time. Yeah, and we was
Speaker 1: doing We was the ones getting most of the money.
Speaker 1: Feel me. We was a lot of other ships too,
Speaker 1: but you know, niggas kept that little profile. Like I said,
Speaker 1: Pop brought us to the light. Feel me. He said, well,
Speaker 1: look his niggas over here giving it up the same
Speaker 1: way niggas is over there. Feel me. We just I'm
Speaker 1: just another person who's gonna prove that the the name
Speaker 1: the Flass was that came from a fabulous record, right,
Speaker 1: I believe so fabulous, said I don't think he said
Speaker 1: it in the line something like that. He told me
Speaker 1: that he Flos is the Flos because that's what we do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, that's what we do day in and and day out,
Speaker 1: from even before was fluorcing, Like this was florcing for me.
Speaker 1: So it's not really what'sing you like I said, seen you? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. I had Big U sitting in that same
Speaker 1: chair and he said that. He said, I don't got
Speaker 1: no tattoos. And you know, Big You is a legendary
Speaker 1: figure in the streets. You know what I'm saying. He said,
Speaker 1: it's it's in me, it ain't on me. That's why
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That's some real shit. Hey,

Speaker 1: But yeah, that's coming up, but that's no longer. Feel me.
Speaker 1: We're gonna, We're gonna, we're gonna postpone that due to
Speaker 1: the fact that every time we're going to a studio,
Speaker 1: some new ship and some shit that you just can't
Speaker 1: can't make up. You just gotta beat it to just know, like, damn,
Speaker 1: so the album's not coming out June eleventh anymore. No, No,
Speaker 1: to let everybody, no, no, what's not so to be determined?
Speaker 1: To be determined? You know it's crazy because I feel
Speaker 1: like you're getting better at your craft. Like people don't
Speaker 1: realize you just started rapping. Man, this shit is crazy,
Speaker 1: like for people who don't know, like man, like there's
Speaker 1: people who do this shit for twenty years and won't
Speaker 1: even sniff the level of success that you got off
Speaker 1: your first record. Do you feel like every time you
Speaker 1: it's almost like riding a bike. You're gonna get better
Speaker 1: every time you feel like you're improving as a MC. Yeah,
Speaker 1: most definitely. I think you know what it is. Like
Speaker 1: I said, with everything out in din it. In my
Speaker 1: life overall, it was always about getting to new heights basketball.
Speaker 1: I started out the back of the line right by
Speaker 1: my eleventh senior grade year as a star player. Everybody
Speaker 1: know my name in the school. That was just it
Speaker 1: was just like it was always something in mind, can't
Speaker 1: fit in. I gotta stand out for that. You gotta work.
Speaker 1: My work ethic and my determination stems from basketball, stems
Speaker 1: from sports. I played for ball two going up, but
Speaker 1: it stems from all of that because you know, you
Speaker 1: got to be disciplined. Yeah, so themselves to practice. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know me, I was working out day in and
Speaker 1: day out, eating day in and day out. So I
Speaker 1: was telling myself, hearing themselves push ups, I'm not stopping
Speaker 1: till my body can't stop. Now my mind mind to
Speaker 1: tell your body to stop when you could really keep going.
Speaker 1: So I just that's how I learned, and that that
Speaker 1: works with everything. That's not just for what you're doing.
Speaker 1: You got to take that outside of everything you're doing
Speaker 1: and use it in every walks of life. So that's
Speaker 1: what I tried to do. How long were you locked up? Long?
Speaker 1: It was? I was remanded and it's a seventy two
Speaker 1: hour old but through the corona that was lifted, they
Speaker 1: no longer so I was just in there for me
Speaker 1: and they didn't allow me to post my bill. So
Speaker 1: my lawyer was just fighting for motions. Motions, motions for me,
Speaker 1: and I've never really gotten them too. Are you? Are
Speaker 1: you past whatever I really be talking about us? But listen,
Speaker 1: I know what it's like to have a fucking case
Speaker 1: floating over your head that should if you think about
Speaker 1: it too much, it'll get fuck with think about it.
Speaker 1: The only reason I don't think about it is because
Speaker 1: my understanding that you know, you gotta whatever you do,
Speaker 1: there's repercussions behind them, and if you're not willing to
Speaker 1: accept those, you can't be caught. The man grol men
Speaker 1: know that there's repercussions, and one day or the other
Speaker 1: you may have to face those. Without getting too far
Speaker 1: deep into the politics of what's going on in Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: you know, there's a very you know, if for people
Speaker 1: who've never even sniffed Brooklyn, they know about the politics
Speaker 1: of the streets that's going on between we won't even
Speaker 1: say right, but but there's but there's a lot of
Speaker 1: it's spilled over in the rap. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: there's rappers on both sides. People have gotten stabbed. It's
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Yeah, one hundred. You're someone who obviously, man,
Speaker 1: you're special, you have a star quality. And there's there's
Speaker 1: been so many artists that we've lost over some bullshit,
Speaker 1: right and you know, obviously in Pop's case, it wasn't
Speaker 1: it was out here, it was you know, it was
Speaker 1: it wasn't over some shit from back home. But but
Speaker 1: is that something that you're very like conscientious of when
Speaker 1: it comes to just moving around because you never know,
Speaker 1: you know, you might run into somebody at Brooklyn chop
Speaker 1: house or something, or you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: my paranoya is really would keep me saying, like me
Speaker 1: always being on goal, always watching my surroundings. It put
Speaker 1: me in a place where I know how well, if
Speaker 1: I was lack a days ago with this, it's a
Speaker 1: possibility this could happen. But I'm always gonna be on it,
Speaker 1: so nothing could happen. And then again there's times that
Speaker 1: you was on it and something happened. So then that's
Speaker 1: where the surrounding hoop of niggas come in. You know,
Speaker 1: you're gang your brothers, they got to be the ones
Speaker 1: to step on niggas next before they even get the
Speaker 1: chance to get to a nigga like me. You know

Speaker 1: you know, it's crazy out basketball translate making me it's
Speaker 1: real life ship in any situation, I'm never thinking about myself.

Speaker 1: ship like that had to be crazy. Yeah, said to
Speaker 1: me that something like I watched Kyrie play, I watched
Speaker 1: James Harden and then he caught the yam to it.
Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, my shit, give niggas, were you
Speaker 1: hesitant to do a sequel to Rolling and Controlling? Because
Speaker 1: I feel like sometimes I could go, Yeah, you could
Speaker 1: go the other way. That's why. Yeah, like me, I
Speaker 1: would have never do it that. Yeah, off rip because
Speaker 1: that to me is like, that's corny, that's pocket like
Speaker 1: did you feel me? But it was naturally made, so
Speaker 1: it was no denying it. Like, and he kept saying it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's picture me rolling? Said no, it's rolling.
Speaker 1: I said, We're gonna put it in parenthesies because I
Speaker 1: need niggas to know that's picture of me rolling through
Speaker 1: LA through California with some bad bitches and gang members.
Speaker 1: Is that what you shot this week? Yeah? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: well through sixty? How many how many videos you shoot?
Speaker 1: You have you shot in La? Just that one? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because like I came down when we came there one
Speaker 1: Monday and shot it on Wednesday yesterday. That's crazy, man.
Speaker 1: Were you like the other biggest alleged Rolling sixty in
Speaker 1: hip hop history is Nipsey Hustle, Right, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Nipsy And shout to my brother Jaystone too,
Speaker 1: Jason out there yourself. But were you did you come
Speaker 1: up like fucking with Nipsey's music, because I mean I
Speaker 1: was on the other side, you know, on the other side.
Speaker 1: I wasn't heavy on it, but I fucked with of course,
Speaker 1: like what he stood for. Yeah, so like the music naturally,
Speaker 1: and it correlated with who he is. So I just
Speaker 1: you had to fuck with the music, you know, but
Speaker 1: him as a person more or less is what I
Speaker 1: looked at, Like damn, like feel me? You you what
Speaker 1: you say you stand on every time without waver So
Speaker 1: I respect that. YO. Talk about the drill scene in
Speaker 1: New York, it's it's crazy right now, and you know,
Speaker 1: I feel like obviously Chicago started it, UK had their way,
Speaker 1: but New York's got it right now. Fully? Was that
Speaker 1: always like the type of like when you cause you
Speaker 1: know me growing up as a hip hop head, I
Speaker 1: think in New York, I think a fucking boom back
Speaker 1: lyrical rap ship or fifty G unit. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's more relatable the first one. I really
Speaker 1: that's me, Like I didn't. I was never so in
Speaker 1: tune with music, but it was always around me. I
Speaker 1: never had like a specific person I listened to on
Speaker 1: the regular, but you know, Soka my people's growing up, Kompa,
Speaker 1: that's the ship I heard. And then on the you
Speaker 1: know you got the R and B artist is sure
Speaker 1: so like me, Like I said, when it comes to
Speaker 1: drill music in New York, it has hints of what
Speaker 1: was in the past, but it's a whole new wave, right,
Speaker 1: you know, And it's and it is like I said, me,
Speaker 1: I grab a lot of shit old ship and put
Speaker 1: in my tracks. For me, I grab a lot of
Speaker 1: old shit put in my tracks just just you know,
Speaker 1: the idea of it is cool because you're still paying
Speaker 1: homage to what was. Who would you consider kind of
Speaker 1: like the godfather of the drill shit in New York.
Speaker 1: I think pop Smoke was the biggest, but I think
Speaker 1: he was the biggest. But I mean I think obviously
Speaker 1: obviously shout out to five. I think five is one
Speaker 1: of those guys I'll say. I'll say pop Pop he
Speaker 1: put it on the biggest stage one hundred percent. To me,
Speaker 1: it's like that's what a godfather is here, you know,
Speaker 1: biggas everybody else he had it was underneath you, but
Speaker 1: you was up there. Well, I think what he was
Speaker 1: able to do. Unfortunately, he didn't get to see the
Speaker 1: success of the sonic chances he took on his new
Speaker 1: album because he changed up his you know, he made
Speaker 1: some records that he made a lot of I mean,
Speaker 1: there was barely any drill records on that album, and unfortunately,
Speaker 1: you know, he didn't get to see that it paid off.
Speaker 1: But I heard a lot of your records that you're
Speaker 1: sitting on, and you got some of them ones, so
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, and and and another thing
Speaker 1: that a lot of people don't really know is you
Speaker 1: know pop he started out, you know, he drell. He
Speaker 1: could feel me me too. But I was really more
Speaker 1: of a melodic from the jump, like I used to
Speaker 1: sing growing up, so before my voice got the rasp,
Speaker 1: and you know, in the basin it was it was
Speaker 1: a single. I could just sing my eyes what were
Speaker 1: you singing? Like church or church? I sing any with
Speaker 1: same way with when when whenever? I yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: possibility you gonna see me performing. You're gonna hear me
Speaker 1: singing something, rapping something, because that was just my nature.
Speaker 1: So for me, it was easier for me to do
Speaker 1: those lovey dovey tracks when it came time because that
Speaker 1: was kind of already your bad, already my bop, so
Speaker 1: it was nothing. Would you ever try to infuse some
Speaker 1: of the Caribbean ship you came up listening to in
Speaker 1: your household into your music. Even Yeah, certain parts about track,
Speaker 1: you could hear the accent on certain words. But I
Speaker 1: would make an old wait. I would say, what you need.
Speaker 1: What you need is the vibe of it is a
Speaker 1: Caribbean Yeah, ah, young Blue or that oh young Blue.
Speaker 1: It is what it is, the young Blue on the
Speaker 1: West Coast with it the Empire Avengers. They have you
Speaker 1: nodded on a song. And it is coming soon. And
Speaker 1: there's some Caribbean vibes on ladies. That's a crazy right
Speaker 1: there there. It is coming soon. I'm gonna see I'm
Speaker 1: supposed to see Blue this week, so I'm gonna ask
Speaker 1: him about it. I heard you. I got one. You
Speaker 1: know what, I'm outside of the outside of Blue. Who else?
Speaker 1: I mean? You know who else do you want to
Speaker 1: work with that you haven't worked with yet? Everybody? Like
Speaker 1: I said before, I funk with my son. Who shines
Speaker 1: this ship? Little baby? All of them? God, what about it?
Speaker 1: Give me a new a New york O G. If
Speaker 1: you could pick a New york O G any one
Speaker 1: of them to work with, who would it be? Oh no,
Speaker 1: because I'll say it gotta be jay Zuse, it gotta
Speaker 1: be Nikki. If you do the video at least, you know,
Speaker 1: you might could you know, catch man, maybe catch catch
Speaker 1: a nip slip or something on set. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, sick, so maybe fast because he shouted out
Speaker 1: KNARSI before you know what I'm saying, Hey, Hope shout
Speaker 1: it out? You know what I mean? Yeah that man?
Speaker 1: Well listen, you're on your way, bro uh. And I
Speaker 1: know a lot of people are gonna be in the
Speaker 1: comments and and they're gonna get extremely h You're gonna
Speaker 1: get the pop smoke ship in the comments. But I
Speaker 1: want to make sure that we did not talk about that.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure that that's gonna be everything that's always
Speaker 1: loved of course, But you know, I just I think
Speaker 1: people got to understand who you are, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and what you do and what you bring
Speaker 1: to the table, and and you know, I think that
Speaker 1: there you got. Once these other records start coming out,
Speaker 1: people gonna get the picture. They're gonna get it, man.
Speaker 1: And plus you're playing you're paying homage to to to
Speaker 1: the homie as well, So it's all love man, Dusty Locine,
