Speaker 1: right before shit got hectic, right before the whole world
Speaker 1: shut down. Yeah, it was like March. It was. It
Speaker 1: was about six seven months ago, so like things have
Speaker 1: definitely changed. How have you been adjusting to just the
Speaker 1: way the world is now? Because I know usually you'd
Speaker 1: be on the road right now grabbing all kinds of
Speaker 1: brown paper bags, Like, what's what's been the adjustment for you? Oh,
Speaker 1: I've been playing the game like video games, I feel
Speaker 1: you to. I got addictional Warzon, Yo. The war Zone
Speaker 1: is addictive. It's like you've been a whole nother world.
Speaker 1: I don't care on my phone. I don't want to
Speaker 1: talk about it. It's just different. Yeah. That, and then
Speaker 1: I just got the new Tony Hawk, well not the
Speaker 1: old Tony Hawk when I was a kid. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: when I was little I had it. And then they
Speaker 1: just put out the remastered version. So I've been just
Speaker 1: just diving in man head first that war Zone, I hope. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: Tony Hawk's still alive. That would be sad. I feel
Speaker 1: like I would know if Tony Hawk was dead. He
Speaker 1: was just on Joe Rogan like last year. I hope
Speaker 1: he's still alive. Shout out to Tony Hawk. So you've
Speaker 1: been playing a lot of video games, obviously you've been
Speaker 1: working Joe. Just just war Zone, just sticking on war Zone. Uh,
Speaker 1: how are you nice on war Zone though? Because I
Speaker 1: feel like I started playing it too late, but because
Speaker 1: you know, when you play it too late, then you
Speaker 1: get on and everyone's so good playing so I done
Speaker 1: got it into Yeah, I feel like I I caught
Speaker 1: the wave a little late because now like I hop
Speaker 1: on and it's all these everyone's so fucking fine tuned
Speaker 1: and good, and I'm just like I'm getting smoked on there.
Speaker 1: Bro PlayStation Yeah, PS four bought a PC and anything.
Speaker 1: That's how in tune got tobout a PC. You bought
Speaker 1: a PC, bro Yo, that's next level gaming. That's like Siri,
Speaker 1: when you find someone who is a gaming PC, you're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're a real fucking nerd. For sure. You got the
Speaker 1: graphics card and the fucking chair and massage super ill chair.
Speaker 1: You probably got a fucking colorful ass key like cut
Speaker 1: key lot of keyboard. I bet you do. How much
Speaker 1: should you spend on your gaming PC fifteen? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's gonna that's gonna fly big monitor. I'm on
Speaker 1: the TV. Oh yeah, of course it's it's crossed plass
Speaker 1: platform right, Like you'd be smoking people who are playing
Speaker 1: on other That's the thing when you're on when you're
Speaker 1: on like PlayStation stuff like time of like half a
Speaker 1: second late. So if you're on the PC, you got
Speaker 1: a half a second advantage. Ye're like you faster too.
Speaker 1: That's hey, that makes sense, shouts to everybody after playing
Speaker 1: that war zone. But you also have been obviously extremely
Speaker 1: productive during the quarantine. Uh, it's your second project in
Speaker 1: a year, right? Two? Is it three? My third and November?
Speaker 1: Remember November make twelve months, so they know my third
Speaker 1: and eleven months, third and eleven months second of twenty twenty. Yeah, damn.
Speaker 1: So the work ethic is crazy. But like, why is
Speaker 1: it important for you to keep your feet on, like
Speaker 1: your foot on the neck of the game right now?
Speaker 1: Because I feel like that's just kind of the way
Speaker 1: that the game is now. You got to kind of
Speaker 1: keep like you just gotta people fans have such a
Speaker 1: short attention span, you know what I'm saying like you
Speaker 1: gotta keep dropping. Yeah, Like fans are right man, Like
Speaker 1: if I don't drop a song in a month, like man,
Speaker 1: you following off that sh they didn't really right, tim
Speaker 1: but na Like just like I say, like dropping projects
Speaker 1: back to back and you learn like what works and
Speaker 1: what doesn't, like consistency. They love consistency, So I'm trying
Speaker 1: to be consistent. It's possible. Like most of the videos
Speaker 1: from this project I shot in the week, Like I
Speaker 1: shot seven videos in one week. Shit, that's a lot
Speaker 1: of videos. I mean, how many years out right now?
Speaker 1: Three or four? I feel like I just saw. I
Speaker 1: mean there's at least three, there's at least three. Like
Speaker 1: there's eight already from just the project all together that
Speaker 1: are already out seven, six or seventy. That's crazy. So
Speaker 1: what if you you say you learned every time you
Speaker 1: drop a project you learned from the last time you drop.
Speaker 1: What have you learned so far that you apply to
Speaker 1: this new ship? Oh? Like learning like from this moves
Speaker 1: like more pre released songs, more please pre release strange
Speaker 1: the better placement for like Albatross, and yeah, you know
Speaker 1: they all go into like when I talk, you know,
Speaker 1: when I'm somebody want to look at new music. I
Speaker 1: was at the top of the charte. So you're kind
Speaker 1: of figuring out how the because, like you say, like
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know. Instead of you just
Speaker 1: dropping out of nowhere, you say, you got five songs
Speaker 1: that been out running numbers up, and as soon as
Speaker 1: soon as your project goes live, those five songs are
Speaker 1: on there. It just helps you with your Apple chart.
Speaker 1: It helps you. You're not about to find nobody out
Speaker 1: here nowadays, it was about to drop, drop a whole
Speaker 1: project that's fresh, unless it's like, unless it's like someone ran,
Speaker 1: like like Beyonce or somebody someone's good world. And if
Speaker 1: you notice, like these new days, like those big orders
Speaker 1: sometimes like their placement don't be good. They drop a
Speaker 1: fresh project, no like. And the other thing too, is
Speaker 1: obviously everyone's finessing the And you know, I use the
Speaker 1: word finesse politely because it's just you gotta play the
Speaker 1: You gotta play the rules they give you. You You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, it's the game you're playing. But it's
Speaker 1: the deluxe, a deluxe edition. You know, you drop the deluxe,
Speaker 1: it's almost like a whole other album. And then you
Speaker 1: just put it all and it goes towards the sales
Speaker 1: of the first project. Are you gonna do a deluxe
Speaker 1: for for this album? We'll do it for this one.
Speaker 1: How many songs do you know? How many songs are
Speaker 1: gonna be on it on the deluxe? Yeah? I started
Speaker 1: to put like ten or something, but like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's hard. The only thing hard about deluxe is when
Speaker 1: you got songs working or connecting, you don't want to
Speaker 1: overshadow them with some most singles, that's true, Like I
Speaker 1: take my time with each and their song, so like
Speaker 1: every song be damn it's special to me. So it
Speaker 1: don't be like just no throw that on that. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And you gotta make sure you
Speaker 1: do the track listen Like that'd be the last final
Speaker 1: step of my projects, because I gotta listen to each
Speaker 1: song and then I gotta I want to go put
Speaker 1: it all together and beginning of each beat like projects
Speaker 1: like a lot of people don't do that anymore, to
Speaker 1: where like if you play it, you can sit there
Speaker 1: and lit it roll and you not know that you
Speaker 1: just listened to the whole project. Talk about your relationship
Speaker 1: with Kevin Gates. I know it's a close one. Gates,
Speaker 1: I feel like has always embraced the younger generation and
Speaker 1: try to, you know, co sign certain people. How's y'all's relationship?
Speaker 1: How did it start? Man, big brother, ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie from the from the very beginning,
Speaker 1: he didn't like help me with my career like ways
Speaker 1: he didn't even know like me and g we had
Speaker 1: a song called iPhone six like it's one of our
Speaker 1: hottest be all songs. He shipped to his store like
Speaker 1: rules us up. You know what I'm saying right, Just
Speaker 1: he always like ain't like he just always been like motivational,
Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying. When I was in jail,
Speaker 1: like I wrote on when I come home, I'm like
Speaker 1: I'm getting it, Like you know what I'm saying. He'll
Speaker 1: write me like right before I can pray for me,
Speaker 1: send me alone, prayer you feel me? So he was
Speaker 1: actually writing you in jail like he was on the phone.
Speaker 1: So you had Instagram? Did you have the like phone
Speaker 1: like tucked in jail like was it was it? Was
Speaker 1: it contraband or did they know you had it? How
Speaker 1: do you get a phone into jail? God, the guard,
Speaker 1: so you just chip the guard off, so to make
Speaker 1: sure it's like like you know, not somebody. You know,
Speaker 1: you've seen some crazy shit in the movie. I'm not
Speaker 1: doing those Like you've got a girl who puts shoves
Speaker 1: it up her eyes. They got people, But I wouldn't
Speaker 1: never that type of putting nobody else like was it
Speaker 1: a small phone. Oh, I never been the type of
Speaker 1: I never had been a type like my only people
Speaker 1: see me with my girl, my mom, So I'm not
Speaker 1: about to put them in risk of course. Of course, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it ain't worked. All that's crazy though, because because like
Speaker 1: I know, being in jail is like you know, I
Speaker 1: got a lot of family members that are in prison
Speaker 1: and they live for you know, especially if you're for
Speaker 1: a long time. But just the just the letter makes
Speaker 1: their whole month, you know what I'm saying. No, No,
Speaker 1: like a girl like she used to send pictures, like
Speaker 1: a picture just change your whole Yes, you'll sit there
Speaker 1: just sitting there smelling them, like just trying to smell them,
Speaker 1: you feel me, like actual photos, Yeah, like like like
Speaker 1: coming but she sprayed down and all that I made
Speaker 1: us start doing it. But like you'll smell from like
Speaker 1: I'm touching it. I would just be like, yo, babe,
Speaker 1: I need you so used to the picture all of
Speaker 1: your pussy and then put it in the ovelope and
Speaker 1: send it so like the like to touch it, and
Speaker 1: you got to bro. That's that's that's what we like
Speaker 1: to call jerk off material. Hey, when you're in jail,
Speaker 1: like you want a loan time like that and you
Speaker 1: gotta sell it, you just be like, hey, fam I'm
Speaker 1: up here with my lady's letter. Let me the fuck alone.
Speaker 1: Like gun line, huh, gun line? What does that mean?
Speaker 1: Gun line? Across the gun line? Oh so you okay, Like,
Speaker 1: don't come over here, don't come over here. But basically,
Speaker 1: like it got different, It got different facilities and different rules.
Speaker 1: You feel me? So like a like, I know y'all
Speaker 1: probably used to sells four men, sells something like that.
Speaker 1: If you got like that. The shot nine times of
Speaker 1: ten is down on the walk by itself, and where
Speaker 1: the bathroom at, you know what I'm saying, So you
Speaker 1: can leave out go do your thing while you're in
Speaker 1: the shower. You know what I'm saying. You gotta closed
Speaker 1: off shower now if you And like most of the
Speaker 1: time I was in a don with like two hundred people,
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty people, so everything is completely open.
Speaker 1: So what you have to do is you'll probably have to, like,
Speaker 1: for one, you gotta wait till everybody go to sleep,
Speaker 1: like late course in the morning. Then you gotta like
Speaker 1: either put a blanket up or something around the bathroom.
Speaker 1: You gotta cut off the bathroom or like put a
Speaker 1: trash can up or something car like gunline. So if
Speaker 1: anybody come back there, now the ain't the wrong. So
Speaker 1: if you yell out gunline, everybody knows, like, yo, don't
Speaker 1: drag it off. Brother went out, Yeah, damn, that's crazy.
Speaker 1: And did you ever accidentally walk in this someone's gunlne
Speaker 1: situation because you didn't hear them? What about you? Like
Speaker 1: the opposite were like someone like like on me, like yo,
Speaker 1: man over here trying to handle my ship, very discreet
Speaker 1: with min Like I was the type like I always
Speaker 1: everybody go to child and you got the phone in there,
Speaker 1: get the internet porn always everybody go to lunch. Or
Speaker 1: I used to violate a little bit, like so I
Speaker 1: take my whole bump and I wrapped the whole tent up,
Speaker 1: oh ship, so you just have a whole like a fork.
Speaker 1: Yeah damn, that's crazy, Yo, you're fucking if you ever
Speaker 1: like want to write a book like you know, like
Speaker 1: it'll sell like crazy in jail. Like ways to set
Speaker 1: up your gun line, you could you take the sheet,
Speaker 1: you know you could. There's like different methods. You could
Speaker 1: do the ten, you could do the mushall call a
Speaker 1: and basically like dude, you take the string, tied it
Speaker 1: all the way around the whole. It's not a string,
Speaker 1: it's really like dental flaws, okay, and you just keep
Speaker 1: tying it up and make it thick, go around the whole,
Speaker 1: bump so the whole. But you got the blankets, get
Speaker 1: it to it. You get on now, and you gotta
Speaker 1: sew it like Kurt. Yeah. So it's slides slides, man,
Speaker 1: But you're not supposed to have a tin up, so
Speaker 1: when the police come in, they'll rip the stuff down.
Speaker 1: So that's how it made it make like a maybax.
Speaker 1: So when they come in, just put both sides of
Speaker 1: the curtain all the way back. They don't see it.
Speaker 1: Were you able to have conjugal visits? Nah, that's for
Speaker 1: people that got life. It's for like forever. Yeah, how
Speaker 1: what's the longest. That's the longest you were locked up
Speaker 1: for and a half two and a half years. And
Speaker 1: during that time, give us the timeline of that and
Speaker 1: where you were in your career and how like when
Speaker 1: you got locked up, were you taking music serious at
Speaker 1: the time? Not really, but we was the hottest in
Speaker 1: Baton Rouge well really like Louise Land. Know, so you
Speaker 1: got locked up being like that dude in your city.
Speaker 1: And did it take you getting locked up to like
Speaker 1: realize like I need to take this ship more serious?
Speaker 1: It helped? Yeah, definitely, I have. I used had, Like
Speaker 1: one time I had somebody come to jail and get
Speaker 1: on their knees and bade me to wrap ship the
Speaker 1: weird like somebody who was locked up with you. I
Speaker 1: hate the man got on his knees in front of me.
Speaker 1: It was like, please wrap for me. I mean in jail.
Speaker 1: That's probably the best case scenario of someone getting on
Speaker 1: their knees. I mean, God blessed. But no, did you
Speaker 1: wrap or were you like fam you're fucking weirdo. I
Speaker 1: wasn't never the type like for me to wrap. Be
Speaker 1: in a good mood and like sometimes they have some
Speaker 1: siphers and stuff and you jump in. No, Nah, I
Speaker 1: just you know what I'm saying. Would you like, uh,
Speaker 1: like how much when you got out of jail, did
Speaker 1: you have like tons of notebooks full of your lyrics?
Speaker 1: I got a bunch of what I'm saying to do
Speaker 1: because I'm in a whole different Like I'm in a
Speaker 1: whole different like space with my music. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Yeah, of course the content's gotta change. Your
Speaker 1: life has changed, You're not in that space anymore. Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what some people problem is. Like, it's just some
Speaker 1: some people come home and they want to make jail music.
Speaker 1: You feel me, it's like nobody. I mean, it's cool,
Speaker 1: but it's also like you gotta you know, you also
Speaker 1: gotta evolve. I feel like it's just the same way
Speaker 1: with people. Like some artists feel like or I'm gonna
Speaker 1: make it just R and B project. I'm gonna just
Speaker 1: make a wrap project. I'm gonna make it a saying.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, that's whut each of
Speaker 1: my projects. You're gonna get everything, Like yeah, for sure,
Speaker 1: I don't want to just you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: As soon as you do that, it's like I ain't
Speaker 1: fucking with that, you know what I'm saying. So next
Speaker 1: they probably expecting you to do the same thing. You
Speaker 1: feel me. You're talking about Kevin Gates riding you. He's
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like every time he hangs out
Speaker 1: with someone they become Muslim for a few months. Did
Speaker 1: he did he try to get you to, you know,
Speaker 1: participate in the in the Islamic faith? Oh? I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say that. Am I
Speaker 1: tripping tho? Or is that true? You'll see people around
Speaker 1: Kevin Gates and then all of a sudden they're Muslim,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, they must have been around Kevin Gates.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, his character and his energy makes you
Speaker 1: want to be involved with it, with it, you feel me,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that. So I feel like a lot
Speaker 1: of people gravitate to his energy. Be like, yo, I
Speaker 1: funk with your energy, and then you associate that with
Speaker 1: maybe his his his faith. It's like it's like I'm
Speaker 1: trying to try to find a way to put it right.
Speaker 1: You ever, Like notice like in history of people that
Speaker 1: like just have like people just gravitate to them for
Speaker 1: some reason. For sure, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: they got that gift. He's got that for sure. He
Speaker 1: got people who want to be just like him. They
Speaker 1: know they're gonna do things like him and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: But when I I did go to the what's called
Speaker 1: the mosque, I did go. I did go that with him.
Speaker 1: I told him about like I'm not gonna do that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just stayed at the door, not like but I
Speaker 1: really like it to pull up with you. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I have been around it, like in jail. Like,
Speaker 1: but I'm real strict in my religious beliefs. Like what
Speaker 1: are your religious beliefs? I believe in God, And is
Speaker 1: it so you're you consider yourself Christian Baptist. I just
Speaker 1: believe in I used to be Baptist, but I believe
Speaker 1: in God. So no Bible, like, no caper like it's
Speaker 1: you know what I respect. It's just simple as that.
Speaker 1: Like it's just like you believe in a higher power. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like because when you get into okay, which religion of
Speaker 1: you and it gets you you get a headache just
Speaker 1: thinking about that. I also think too that a lot
Speaker 1: of people should I'm personally like I am atheist, but
Speaker 1: I feel like I really could like see it on you.
Speaker 1: I really believe in like like if you told me
Speaker 1: what's more real, aliens or you know, heavens in the sky,
Speaker 1: I'm fucking running with the aliens all day, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But like, personally, but you had a
Speaker 1: right because like it's like I want to believe in
Speaker 1: something that I can see and I can I want
Speaker 1: to believe in things that make sense, and I feel
Speaker 1: and I feel like, but I feel the history of
Speaker 1: our world, religion has been the biggest divider and has
Speaker 1: caused all the wars and everybody, and it's man made
Speaker 1: a lot of these religions, they're all written written believe
Speaker 1: in Man. So I respect that you cannot believe. If
Speaker 1: you don't believe everything a human says, you cannot believe
Speaker 1: about I think that means that you're you're agnostic technically,
Speaker 1: you believe in a higher power, you just don't identify
Speaker 1: I say, God, But what is it? Then? Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: spiritual not religious. Okay, that's fair because it's like from
Speaker 1: one like if you's just if you just like take
Speaker 1: little things and just really pay attention, like slavery, right,
Speaker 1: you go to slavery. Nah, they didn't want us to
Speaker 1: know how to read, so what they did. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get this one person that does know how to read,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna make him read you what I want
Speaker 1: you to read. Not I'm not about to give you
Speaker 1: what you need to know. You feel me, and that's
Speaker 1: and what you just said. So why the fuck would
Speaker 1: I believe what you just said to me? Is is religious?
Speaker 1: It is religion. It's it's it's used to control the
Speaker 1: vulnerable society. We know that all these religions wouldn't may
Speaker 1: just for that. That's what it's for. That's what it's for.
Speaker 1: It's the biggest hypocritical horseship ever. Like you know, if
Speaker 1: you think of like listen, man, I just I respect
Speaker 1: someone who says they're Christian because like, hey, whatever makes
Speaker 1: you hold at night, and you know, but I just
Speaker 1: think that religion in general is something that is very
Speaker 1: easy to point out clearly the bad that it's contributed
Speaker 1: to respect everybody, but like it's just like just like
Speaker 1: then like with the Muslim thing, like I respect them dudes,
Speaker 1: Like for sure a lot of me too, But a
Speaker 1: lot of those people while I was in jail, joined
Speaker 1: Muslim just for protection. Like a lot of people like
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, like they really over here trying to
Speaker 1: learn a whole different language for protection. So nigga gonna
Speaker 1: get on the ass and you feel me? So wait,
Speaker 1: so we're the Muslims in your jail? Was it like?
Speaker 1: Was it low key? Like if you were like a
Speaker 1: part of that crew. Everyone had each other's back, like
Speaker 1: like like and what were you locked up in in
Speaker 1: in Louisiana? Yeah, okay, you cause you don't go out
Speaker 1: to state unless you feed them, right right right right,
Speaker 1: But well I did do to some camps out of
Speaker 1: statel It's really illegally, but I stay fund up down.
Speaker 1: But yeah, like it some people like they will say
Speaker 1: their muss them and they're you know, I don't know that.
Speaker 1: You know that's crazy shout. I mean, like I said, man,
Speaker 1: I respect everyone's viewpoints. I just have my own. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he like he invited me to. I went in like
Speaker 1: just to cause I'd have been around it, but I
Speaker 1: haven't been an actual one. So it was like, I
Speaker 1: like the experience, you feel me, So it was like
Speaker 1: a good experience and stuff. Yeah, of course that's the
Speaker 1: way I am. But no, he don't. He's not about
Speaker 1: to try to make you be something. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's just people people like gravitates. His energy
Speaker 1: got he gotta be around him is a good like we.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember the moment where he
Speaker 1: told the interviews to stop touching him. That was me
Speaker 1: and DJ Head's interview, and it was the most intense,
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes of our life. And then after the
Speaker 1: interview it went super viral, obviously, and we were like,
Speaker 1: what the fuck just happened because he just got well,
Speaker 1: he just got out of jail like six months earlier.
Speaker 1: But but I'm like, he let his guard down. After
Speaker 1: the interview finished and we talked for like an hour,
Speaker 1: he played U his album and he was like, he
Speaker 1: was like, shit, man, if I had known y'all were like,
Speaker 1: I wish I would have known y'all, we would have
Speaker 1: had a much better interview because I fuck with y'all
Speaker 1: because I'm like that with interviews too. It's like I
Speaker 1: come like I'm always gonna be kind of his of people, like,
Speaker 1: but when you make me feel comfortable, okay, I can
Speaker 1: laugh with you. I can, I could. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a good interview. Well, plus it's also on you know,
Speaker 1: I think too, like the testing shit either, though I didn't.
Speaker 1: The biggest pet peeve is when you're talking to me
Speaker 1: and you like, yo fan is like no, no, I
Speaker 1: feel it, like like it's just like you have to
Speaker 1: touch her, okay, Paul Nah. But it's it's interesting too
Speaker 1: because we were just talking off off the cameras about
Speaker 1: you know, I can only imagine how irritating it can
Speaker 1: be to do a press run and like you gotta go,
Speaker 1: like I know you for the last album. You did
Speaker 1: a bunch of Zoom stuff and Instagram live stuff, and
Speaker 1: it makes it so much easier for just anybody because
Speaker 1: then because it's not so before you would have to
Speaker 1: like go on a promo run to all these cities.
Speaker 1: Right now, it's like everyone's getting an interview. So I
Speaker 1: saw fred o'bang was on IG Live with everybody and
Speaker 1: you getting the same questions, and then half of these
Speaker 1: motherfuckers don't know what they're talking about. They're just asking
Speaker 1: you generic ship like somebody asking me, Oh, somebody asked
Speaker 1: me some dumb ass ship, like so when of the
Speaker 1: last time you and g made a song? Do y'all
Speaker 1: like do y'all plan on getting in the studio again,
Speaker 1: and he you know, he's that that should have went virals.
Speaker 1: What a fucking oh my god. Some people just being then,
Speaker 1: like some of them like try to make it seem
Speaker 1: like you need them, Like I'm the type of person
Speaker 1: like you can always learn from somebody. You feel me,
Speaker 1: but don't make me. Don't try to belitter me. No.
Speaker 1: I think that unfortunately, and I try to point it
Speaker 1: out as much as I can. But like a lot
Speaker 1: of radio DJs have a very distorted version of reality
Speaker 1: and entitlement when it comes to artist where it's a
Speaker 1: two way street. It's like, you don't need me, like
Speaker 1: especially somebody like you, like bro, like you got here
Speaker 1: with no radio, you know what I'm saying. So it's
Speaker 1: like I just think it's a respect thing man. But yeah, man,
Speaker 1: the new album is crazy. I feel like you got
Speaker 1: some joints on here. I think, you know, the Freak
Speaker 1: record could be some ship that could go up. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I did like it. You didn't like it. I had
Speaker 1: a song I made a song two years ago. The
Speaker 1: two year old song was it was a lot of
Speaker 1: one of the whole time I just put on okay, okay, No,
Speaker 1: I love her verse I love her versus crazy personally,
Speaker 1: it's just it's not your Yeah, I just yeah, it
Speaker 1: was just something I was in. I was in the studio,
Speaker 1: high as motherfucker, and I was just talking, yeah, just
Speaker 1: talking some ship. Yeah. No, I think that the ons
Speaker 1: you making you never expect to put up you never.
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of records that end up
Speaker 1: getting big, or like those records I got, I got
Speaker 1: a video I gotta drop. How's the video? Nice? I
Speaker 1: was surprised. I thought I thought she was gonna be
Speaker 1: at her physical appearance or her lyrical appearance on the song. No,
Speaker 1: like her energy. Okay, oh, she was cool, beautiful to
Speaker 1: she's beautiful. She's not as thick as I thought, but
Speaker 1: she's beautiful. You know, it's not bad. It's not a
Speaker 1: bad said that because I put that together too. I
Speaker 1: was like a show, she's beautiful. Yeah, but I feel
Speaker 1: like she says it though. But I thought she was
Speaker 1: gonna be like big old ass. But hey, though thankful
Speaker 1: she probably doesn't have a fake ass. Yeah, because because
Speaker 1: you know, most of these broads out here got them
Speaker 1: fake asses. She personally shout out to Malatto why was
Speaker 1: it important to name the album dedicated it to to
Speaker 1: your boy G in the name of G, Like like
Speaker 1: I get in the name of G from Jesus, Okay,
Speaker 1: but you got your man next to you? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like on the cover like what what?
Speaker 1: What was? Uh? It's basically like the like as far
Speaker 1: as the cover, it was like, maam, like he's still
Speaker 1: with me. It's on my back and I'm like, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like I don't know. It's like
Speaker 1: I'm really showing y'all like this in the name of G,
Speaker 1: Like this is why y'all should follow him. I got
Speaker 1: the sheep falling. No, I do think it's it's obviously, man,
Speaker 1: dude was a big deal in your life. You got
Speaker 1: to change the tattoo, like your album is named after him.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like you're still like like are you
Speaker 1: still grieving his loss? Or if you feel like you
Speaker 1: come to peace with it? N I ain't gonna never
Speaker 1: that's fair like something like you know how that feeling
Speaker 1: like not that feeling that you get one like I
Speaker 1: probably everybody had lost somebody of course, of course, but
Speaker 1: it's always that reality feeling that it's always you when
Speaker 1: you when you think about a person like actually like
Speaker 1: like disappearing, you feel me and it'd be like that
Speaker 1: feeling hit you right in the stomach. Yeah, you always
Speaker 1: hit like that. Damn man? How how has it been?
Speaker 1: How long has it been? Year and a half? Three years? Ship?
Speaker 1: That's crazy? Do you feel like, because you were saying
Speaker 1: before you got locked up, you guys are the hottest
Speaker 1: in Louisiana? Do you kind of feel I saw like
Speaker 1: it on the album you said every time you see
Speaker 1: his kid, it makes you you want to cry, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Do you feel like that responsibility
Speaker 1: to kind of like bring his people along with you,
Speaker 1: make sure his people are straight, because you know he's
Speaker 1: not along, he's not along with you to enjoy the
Speaker 1: ride because right now you're at the biggest you've ever been.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I feel I try
Speaker 1: to show as much love as I can to people,
Speaker 1: like I mean, like his family. I already had a
Speaker 1: relationship with the people I had a relationship with. I
Speaker 1: ain't know y'all know, right, right, But what about his kid?
Speaker 1: You got a relationship with this kid? Yeah, like I
Speaker 1: got I got somewhat relationship with all the kids, but
Speaker 1: the other besides his son, it'd be harder to to
Speaker 1: the other one, the other baby mamas. Yeah, that also
Speaker 1: all depends on how cool the baby. It's really like
Speaker 1: if I'm not giving them money, like you don't want
Speaker 1: to talk, it's like some fucking music. So oh ship,
Speaker 1: that's rough. So you know what I'm saying. Then the
Speaker 1: moment that you don't give what they want, at that moment,
Speaker 1: it's like you never did nothing. So that's crazy. That's unfortunately.
Speaker 1: I just got to like realization of like last week,
Speaker 1: like I'm just not with it. Do you feel like
Speaker 1: that with a lot of people in your life, because
Speaker 1: I feel like once you get lately, not like lately
Speaker 1: like with just quarantine, I've been doing like some really
Speaker 1: like inter finding my more of finding myself. Like it's
Speaker 1: just like I gotta stop giving so much of myself
Speaker 1: to people like people like me. I was I was
Speaker 1: talking about producer like people like us. We work our
Speaker 1: whole life to make other people happy, so when we
Speaker 1: when we die, we'd be like the saddest fuck motherfuckers
Speaker 1: on earth? You feel me? So I ain't going out
Speaker 1: like that. Damn. That's some real shit. I do feel
Speaker 1: like you reach that successs you become more of like
Speaker 1: what can you do for me? And it's like because
Speaker 1: it got to the point where like stuff don't make
Speaker 1: me happy, like yachts and all that shit. It don't
Speaker 1: make me happy. Like what makes you happy? Just sitting
Speaker 1: at home playing the game like my gaming PC. I
Speaker 1: like to eat, Like just little shit makes me happy.
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't say happen. It's just like it makes
Speaker 1: me comfortable. I guess now I feel you. It's like
Speaker 1: you would rather chill and eat and play. I became
Speaker 1: that way with the club man because you know, I'm
Speaker 1: a club DJ. But like you know, it's been six
Speaker 1: seven years since I've like given the fuck to go
Speaker 1: to a night club if I wasn't getting a back there.
Speaker 1: When you think about like what is it like i'll
Speaker 1: be in that, I'm like really like, wow, I'm here,
Speaker 1: like I don't want I don't drink, look like that
Speaker 1: it's nasty's poison. Everybody just around here looking stupid. Everyone's
Speaker 1: standing around two thousand dollars sections like I'm not like
Speaker 1: why are you there? Like unless you're picking up a bag,
Speaker 1: I'm not making no money while I'm not DJing, Like,
Speaker 1: why do I want to go hang out? I'd rather
Speaker 1: I hate being around a lot of pa I'd rather
Speaker 1: go to a hole in the wall dive bar. Then
Speaker 1: some people be staying at you because you don't know
Speaker 1: if they're a fan or not. You just speak. You
Speaker 1: feel me, especially in your position, bro, like do you
Speaker 1: want to do me something? You be thinking? Like ship,
Speaker 1: just stop looking at me. You say you don't drink
Speaker 1: like that. I've been drinking, like we've been in the house,
Speaker 1: like I've had like some family come over with play
Speaker 1: drunk ping pong. Oh you're talking about beer pong but
Speaker 1: with shots. Oh that's dangerous. So you're playing beer pong
Speaker 1: with shots. Oh that's that's rough. That's rough with beer.
Speaker 1: We started wrong. We were like had twenty five cuss
Speaker 1: on East Side. Oh yeah, we learned. That was a
Speaker 1: rough night. What about do you participate? Do you smoke weed?
Speaker 1: Do you do any sort of drugs or anything like that? Hey,
Speaker 1: that's dope, man. Did you ever have a cent in
Speaker 1: your life where you where you where you were, like
Speaker 1: you're strung out doing lean or anything like that? Lean?
Speaker 1: I had lean and Lord tells I was on the bed.
Speaker 1: What is that smaller Watson's so like it's like, is
Speaker 1: it like a purposet? Oh yeah, it's okay, Yeah it's open. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I was on bad so that ship. How long
Speaker 1: have you been off of that? Because I know that
Speaker 1: sh it's hard to kick. It's like you got to
Speaker 1: go through it. It depends on how hard how hard
Speaker 1: you go playing if you just a weak ass person mentally,
Speaker 1: so you kicked it pretty easily, like I would never
Speaker 1: like I need like I used to just overdo it.
Speaker 1: It was like recreationally fucking with it. Yeah, but I
Speaker 1: was getting like I was eight pills a day, and
Speaker 1: like like one time I fucking heat splashes and fainted
Speaker 1: inside the ball hill one time getting full of lean.
Speaker 1: I caught all my charges full of drink. So he
Speaker 1: was on lean every time you got arrested because I
Speaker 1: used to just be like just like his zombie. No,
Speaker 1: just just be angry. That should make you angry, and
Speaker 1: it gives you a fucking belly, right, I heard that
Speaker 1: should make you gain weight. I think a lot of
Speaker 1: it too, is like it's all the soda you drink
Speaker 1: with it. People be fucking drinking so much. Goddamn soda.
Speaker 1: When I was small, I was like one six, I
Speaker 1: wasn't gaining no, so you was just leaned out catching charges.
Speaker 1: Was that what kind of made you like realize, like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm tripping, Like I just wanted to jail nothing. I
Speaker 1: couldn't get it, so I just stopped. But I always
Speaker 1: been a type with like I'll go like a couple
Speaker 1: of days like detox myself. That's smart, man. A lot
Speaker 1: of people ain't. They can't say the same thing. The
Speaker 1: last time we talked, we had discussed that Boozy was
Speaker 1: you were related to Boozy, And then I talked to
Speaker 1: Boozy and then I brought it up to him and
Speaker 1: he was like yeah. I think he was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: my auntie told me like, you don't know that you're
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know you guys are cousins or something, right,
Speaker 1: And he was like I fucked with him, but there's
Speaker 1: just some weird there was like some weird beef shit.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but that that that neither of you
Speaker 1: directly had with each other. But it was just some
Speaker 1: I don't know, have you guys had any sort of conversation.
Speaker 1: You guys finally saw each other and I and and
Speaker 1: mind you not only are you related to him, but
Speaker 1: he's also boozy and you're from Baton Rouge and he's
Speaker 1: the god. So talk about that interaction. How to go man?
Speaker 1: You know, he's in the airport in Atlanta, was about
Speaker 1: to fly out, he was about to fly and I
Speaker 1: seen him and I was like, yeah, I got a
Speaker 1: holler of course, and we just we just ran it
Speaker 1: and got was just like clarification on like what it
Speaker 1: was and what was it. Oh. It's just a lot
Speaker 1: of history between like Ben and Rudge and just like
Speaker 1: people in general, plus like TVG. You know him, he
Speaker 1: used to like I wouldn't say he was TVG, but
Speaker 1: it was the same thing. TVG and BED and T
Speaker 1: was basically the same thing. So it's a lot of
Speaker 1: history with them. And I wasn't TVG like me and
Speaker 1: G got started became TVG in like two thousand and fourteen,
Speaker 1: so TVG was already a label that existed. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: it's been like you signed with them in twenty fourteen.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't sign. It's just you guys became a part
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, And so there was a split between
Speaker 1: Badass and TVG. I'm assuming way before, way before we
Speaker 1: came and got involved. I got you. Yeah, like like
Speaker 1: we probably was the last ones they ever like become TVG,
Speaker 1: Like even on the Dude Contrail he was in TVG
Speaker 1: before us, So that was really it. It It was like
Speaker 1: some shit that you really weren't a part of. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you guys are solid, do you? I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: assuming that doing a record together might be out of
Speaker 1: the question. Still, maybe I've been sending it. He'd have
Speaker 1: to work that out with THEE I mean, nah, I
Speaker 1: sent him a record. Amen, that'd be crazy. The last
Speaker 1: time we talked too and things have escalated since then,
Speaker 1: but you would. You had said essentially that you'd be
Speaker 1: open to working with young boy, and then this video
Speaker 1: dropped on his Instagram where he was talking crazy. I
Speaker 1: was like, there's just certain things you don't say, and
Speaker 1: the way he was talking. And I feel like he
Speaker 1: does that a lot. And obviously he's the number one
Speaker 1: streaming artist right now in the world. Very talented guy,
Speaker 1: but I do feel like he is habitually disrespectful to
Speaker 1: the point where it's like almost there's no coming back
Speaker 1: from the level of disrespect he displays online. Sometimes I
Speaker 1: saw your reply. Is there an end? To that situation
Speaker 1: that doesn't involve any more. I don't know what's happened.
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, like you said, you lost
Speaker 1: your partner, I lost my partner. Only differences you ain't
Speaker 1: post them. I don't know if that was for him.
Speaker 1: But that, by the way, fire line. Love that line.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is I'm not saying anything has
Speaker 1: happened or hasn't happened. What I'm saying is, is there
Speaker 1: any sort of resolution or you open to any sort
Speaker 1: of resolution that does not involve anymore? Just ignorant shit.
Speaker 1: I don't have no problem with him. I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: seem like the nicest guy. And then like with that
Speaker 1: whole situation, like I mean, he was angry. He just
Speaker 1: like talking about digging up your dad homies. I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: that's there's certain things I DIDNE did so much stuff
Speaker 1: in life, you know what I'm saying, Like I know
Speaker 1: who I am, so that that that that that role
Speaker 1: where you got to prove yourself. You gotta get it's
Speaker 1: a few things. It's like, you really can barely make
Speaker 1: me angry to what I'm gonna show that I'm angry.
Speaker 1: You feel me like Oh, it's just I don't know,
Speaker 1: like to prove. Yeah, I feel like you're comfortable in
Speaker 1: your own skin. Yeah, definitely you haven't. I don't feel
Speaker 1: like i've ever Like your come up did not to
Speaker 1: me represent you trolling on the internet doing that because
Speaker 1: I don't have to, Like I don't. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't gotta get on my Instagram pointing guns. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't gotta I kill your mom and all that,
Speaker 1: like like people know who I am, they know what
Speaker 1: I did, and they know what it would do. Like
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm in a whole different laying in life.
Speaker 1: Not like when you saw that though, did that did
Speaker 1: that make you angry or did you just choose because
Speaker 1: I mean it seemed like your your reaction wasn't like you.
Speaker 1: It was kind of it was funny. It was kind
Speaker 1: of like bro, like come on, bro, no, like really angry,
Speaker 1: like he was pissed, yo. When that motherfucker be getting
Speaker 1: turned up, I'd be like, is he on? Like what
Speaker 1: is going on? Like and someone take his phone? But
Speaker 1: you didn't react angrily like you reacted kind of more lighthearted.
Speaker 1: Obviously you talked about you know, like boys fat if
Speaker 1: I'm just saying if if if I wanted to be
Speaker 1: an angry person, and I like, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: like it's a dirty person. Like well, listen, the last
Speaker 1: time we talked, you were like, I'd be open to
Speaker 1: working with him. I would, I still would. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm a business person, like I don't have especially,
Speaker 1: I don't have nothing against him. Like he never did
Speaker 1: me nothing, never did nothing. Nobody around me was the
Speaker 1: origin the origin of the issue with your man G originally. Oh,
Speaker 1: I really don't know, Like I was. Listen when I
Speaker 1: was in jail, right, yeah, I was good. Wait, just
Speaker 1: so everybody know, give him the timeline from my year
Speaker 1: to what year were you in jail through two and
Speaker 1: a half years two the first day of twenty sixteen,
Speaker 1: all the way to middle of twenty eight to night. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I'm really going like a little deep with you already.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. But all right, when I went to jail,
Speaker 1: all us are good, right, yeah, but he had left
Speaker 1: TVG when I was in jail. People, I don't know

Speaker 1: you hanging in? No, no, no, not him. There's other people. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just like it's just like people like like we were
Speaker 1: just in jail a couple of months agether we was
Speaker 1: making a hook up together, hanging out like some spread
Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, And it's sucking me
Speaker 1: up because like, damn, y'all could have did me something.
Speaker 1: You would have been comfortable. You let your guard Dann
Speaker 1: around these guys. Damn, and you guys have never had
Speaker 1: a conversation together, you and and and young boy since
Speaker 1: since you got out of jail, have you guys had
Speaker 1: any sort of dialogue or but you're open to it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't have no problem with this dude. You're bigger
Speaker 1: than a lot of people. Man, it's more social media.
Speaker 1: Like that's what it feels like. If you ain't, you ain't.
Speaker 1: Did me nothing, people nothing like hey man, it's the
Speaker 1: same thing I told her an Lee chopped. When I
Speaker 1: first met him, I was like, Yo, man, you gotta
Speaker 1: chill out on that internet ship, bro. And every time
Speaker 1: I seen him since then, he's been growing. As you know,
Speaker 1: he said. People forget that dude's a kid, you know what.
Speaker 1: You were just with him the other night, right, Like
Speaker 1: people don't realize, like he's not even eighteen. But I
Speaker 1: would tell him, you know, like, yo, the internet ship, bro,
Speaker 1: like chill like you're like, you're a good kid. Said
Speaker 1: It's like it's dope to see his growth. But I
Speaker 1: feel like, like you said, you're so comfortable in your
Speaker 1: own skin. And then like, I'm not about to put
Speaker 1: myself at risk on this Instagram fighting gangster ass. Then
Speaker 1: the cops got to get on here and tell you.
Speaker 1: I would do you something like why you feel me
Speaker 1: like like food? I really just was fighting for the years,
Speaker 1: Like I really didn't know if I was coming home.
Speaker 1: You feel me like, actually, I didn't actually slept next
Speaker 1: to people who actually have life, not people who who
Speaker 1: might get it or not. Like I haven't been next
Speaker 1: to these people who are not coming home like and
Speaker 1: that's that's like a lot of people that go to jail,
Speaker 1: they get out to go out in jail out, but
Speaker 1: they never been there. They never got time and had
Speaker 1: to damn the fuck my paperwork up. Naw, they trying
Speaker 1: to make me do a flat settling like at first
Speaker 1: they had my paperwork sucked up. If I ain't have
Speaker 1: a lawyer, I'll be still in jail seven years just
Speaker 1: because they fucked on my minuce. Wow. Just like like
Speaker 1: imagine how many times that ship just happened? So people
Speaker 1: who home run right that that'sh just crazy. I'm just
Speaker 1: making my money. I'm doing my thing now. Like you said, man,
Speaker 1: I think the the internet beef and ship is corny.
Speaker 1: Like if it's beef, it ain't gonna be on the internet.
Speaker 1: And that's you know, I mean, maybe it's I'm just old,
Speaker 1: but that seems kind of the way. You know, hip
Speaker 1: hop is gone and it's unfortunate to see who's some
Speaker 1: artists who First of all, we're talking about the double
Speaker 1: XELF freshman cover and I thought you should have been
Speaker 1: considered for that slot, one of them. We were also
Speaker 1: talking about how bad a lot of the freestyles were.
Speaker 1: We won't say whose freestyles were shitty, but there were
Speaker 1: some really bad ones. I'll just say little kids freestyles.
Speaker 1: He didn't say I said it, but some of the
Speaker 1: people and there definitely deserve to be on there. But
Speaker 1: who are some of the younger artists that you feel like,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of like deserving of that slot that
Speaker 1: maybe didn't catch it, or somebody who you're just a
Speaker 1: fan of that's coming up right now. One person I
Speaker 1: definitely know should have been on there with Vaughn, like
Speaker 1: as far as numbers and growth and just doing this
Speaker 1: thing like we're supposed to be on it. I don't
Speaker 1: know how he didn't. Oh it's called billy footage. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: he's trying to put the thing on the screen. So yeah, yeah, definitely,
Speaker 1: mm hmmm mm hmm. I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 1: for sure though, what do I just like I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think of like anybody else could, Like I'll begetting
Speaker 1: I'll be really forgetting people. Have you heard a blast
Speaker 1: from l a blast? Oh? You gotta fuck with him.
Speaker 1: He's crazy. I also feel like the Blue Kid is dope,
Speaker 1: young blues dope. There's some blue van draws the kid from.
Speaker 1: Where's the fuck is he from? We just had him.
Speaker 1: He's from Alabama. Yeah, he had once to a restaurant.
Speaker 1: Don't know he got a restaurant? Yeah, shout out to him.
Speaker 1: What are you now? You got some money? You know,
Speaker 1: you got your head on straight. Are you doing the
Speaker 1: right things with your bread? Are you trying to invest you? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I just management company. You can start managing artists. Do
Speaker 1: you feel like it's a hard thing to do as
Speaker 1: a as an artist? Or is it because I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be personally and you just got your people running? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Like I just look over, like, what's someone like they
Speaker 1: need to drop at t Maybe like a label type situation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's more like I'm like, like, yo, shit, Like
Speaker 1: I don't know, you probably haven't heard him yet, but
Speaker 1: it's like all this I'm working there on right now.
Speaker 1: He gotta independent deal he about to do. But can
Speaker 1: you help him manage? Yeah? But like basically like when
Speaker 1: we start off. I talked h about like food. All right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play for videos and shitting like that. Showed me.
Speaker 1: You see it though, show me you can you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Because he just thought like he made
Speaker 1: his like on one song like rap, so you know
Speaker 1: I did that, and then like I put it to
Speaker 1: what he gonna make. He make every dying off for
Speaker 1: every play he ever gets, you feel me? So like
Speaker 1: he growth, he getting better and better, and like now
Speaker 1: he you know what I'm saying, So I rather like
Speaker 1: start off with people. All right, we do this fifty
Speaker 1: fifty things I pay. I paid for your stuff. One day,
Speaker 1: I make my money back, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But as long as you growth, you're making money. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, We're going somewhere instead of me
Speaker 1: just giving you fifteen hundred grand and hoping that you
Speaker 1: and then signed your life to me. Yeah. Now you
Speaker 1: now you not making no money and you're going rid.
Speaker 1: You feel me? Yeah, because you're starting off in the rid.
Speaker 1: You right, Hey, that's crazy you say that, man, because
Speaker 1: because I feel like that's the biggest one of the
Speaker 1: biggest mistakes artists make is what you just said, and
Speaker 1: that's taking that quick advance because like you said, you
Speaker 1: start off in the red, you got to make that
Speaker 1: ship back over. Yeah, but it's like different show from
Speaker 1: different folks though. No, you're right. Some people like you're right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I say it based just like I feel like you
Speaker 1: just based everything off your situation and what makes you
Speaker 1: comfortable at that moment. You know what I'm saying. How
Speaker 1: has the have you? Like, have you noticed the difference
Speaker 1: working with Depth Jam? And how has your experience been
Speaker 1: being with Depth Jam? Has it been a positive one?
Speaker 1: Has it been kind of positive? I mean by work
Speaker 1: still with the same like, like, do you feel like
Speaker 1: they added anything to what you're doing? Yeah? Like what
Speaker 1: though mm hmm marketing for Shure mm hmmm. A few
Speaker 1: connections giving me in like some buildings that wouldn't be
Speaker 1: a part of Like I probably wouldn't be on the
Speaker 1: blut leg keV and here. Honestly, I didn't know you're
Speaker 1: on Death Jam. I've be just reaching out to you, bro.
Speaker 1: I had only been on Death Jam. I came by y'all.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is I was me and you
Speaker 1: were DM and each other for a while. I d
Speaker 1: M you like six seven months maybe maybe three four
Speaker 1: months before you came by, and I didn't know you're
Speaker 1: on def Jam, so you would have been you would
Speaker 1: have been on the show either way, I'm saying before hand,
Speaker 1: no for show for show. Now, I think I think
Speaker 1: like I think with labels, you know, they just really
Speaker 1: got to start to really they got to really start
Speaker 1: with younger artists like you. They really got to start
Speaker 1: to show people why why they should sign like they were.
Speaker 1: Like besides, like you said, you know, if you connection
Speaker 1: like I feel like you were, you could do so
Speaker 1: much of that ship on your own. Like any of
Speaker 1: the features on your album, they probably you you probably
Speaker 1: could have got the Mulatto and the Kevin Gate. You
Speaker 1: definitely could have got the Kevin Gates feature. I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, I basically did label did that? Imph they
Speaker 1: did way. Why do you think Baton Rouge is first
Speaker 1: of all working with people like that though I noticed
Speaker 1: some type person if I like your music out, like
Speaker 1: I don't care if you got ten thousand follows, I
Speaker 1: will write you and be like yoshit hard feel me
Speaker 1: and then like people be like won't reply or you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And then like a couple months
Speaker 1: down the road when they when they bug and they
Speaker 1: asked me for a feature, Like, but I'm one of
Speaker 1: them people like I'm I'd have made my own foundation.
Speaker 1: I ain't had to ask everybody for the feature. So
Speaker 1: that's why my shit is gonna keep on climbing because
Speaker 1: I'm not ron this bit chasing features. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, some artists they need that feature
Speaker 1: to kind of I mean, like you said, it's kind
Speaker 1: of like different struggles people like they need to be babysitting,
Speaker 1: they need a daddy. Yeah. I think I think like
Speaker 1: a feature can help because it can bring those fans
Speaker 1: to your ship, and if your shit is dope, they're
Speaker 1: gonna stick around and become your fans. It's just like
Speaker 1: the most hated, Like it's like show a lot of
Speaker 1: people that like I'm in here, right, A lot of
Speaker 1: people don't know. I think it did like eight thousand
Speaker 1: some copy, right, but my project got like almost two
Speaker 1: hundred million string you know, it's also a mixtape. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And by the way, it wasn't like you know, you
Speaker 1: don't sound like there's no no it sounds like an album.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is this is your second project
Speaker 1: since the fucking really since kind of since the pandemic,
Speaker 1: I mean right before the pandemic you drop on. But
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is like I feel like they haven't
Speaker 1: impacted the song your radio yet, Like you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. I feel like this was just based off
Speaker 1: of you know you And by the way, eight thousand
Speaker 1: it's not a bad number, and like you said, the
Speaker 1: amount of streams you're getting it's crazy. And then this one,
Speaker 1: like so a couple more thousand did like ten thousands.
Speaker 1: So I'm doing I'm showing growth, you feel me. But
Speaker 1: the good thing about it is like it's me and
Speaker 1: it's my foundation. You know what I'm saying, I'm not
Speaker 1: on this bitch fucking basing my whole project off of
Speaker 1: verseise from being you know what I'm saying, I'm not
Speaker 1: basing my project off that. Like that's why I dropped
Speaker 1: the Gates video. I'll be dropped it before my project
Speaker 1: came out, because I don't think I want that to
Speaker 1: be the focus point of my project. You feel me.
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you about Baton Rouge to to
Speaker 1: two any question one? What is it about Baton Rouge
Speaker 1: that you think is kind of the center of rap
Speaker 1: right now because it is it's like Baton Rouge Memphis,
Speaker 1: oh outside of like Atlanta, you know, I think Badon
Speaker 1: Rouge is it at the moment. I'll say, for one
Speaker 1: out beats a beat selections or a lot of a
Speaker 1: lot of people can't pick beats sometimes, but most of
Speaker 1: the top artists from Louis And and bad and Ruge
Speaker 1: at this moment, we got we know how to pick beats.
Speaker 1: Oh we know. Just you know what I'm saying. We
Speaker 1: know that vibe. You feel me. And it's such a
Speaker 1: distinct difference between like New Orleans and Baden Ruge, Like yeah,
Speaker 1: with two different slangs, two different sonically, everything's different because
Speaker 1: all New York got they whole complete different sound and
Speaker 1: be all. Like it's kind of hard to explain, Like
Speaker 1: you know, they used to college Jigga City X Piers
Speaker 1: fucking Noles was on heroin and ship like so it's
Speaker 1: it's like it's just two different worlds when one city
Speaker 1: on this drug, the other city on that drug, one
Speaker 1: city fucking the other city is falling asleep. No, that's crazy.
Speaker 1: I remember hearing about New Orleans and like the heroin
Speaker 1: issues in New Orleans. Just two different worlds. Like BG
Speaker 1: had a bad heroin problem, you know what I'm saying. No,
Speaker 1: Like like then all the gangsters, all of all the
Speaker 1: rich niggas and all the gangsters each like Ben, it's
Speaker 1: just been a thing. They just do it quietly. It
Speaker 1: got like it got it got big orders from Louisiana.
Speaker 1: Right now, each that are still like shooting up, Nah,
Speaker 1: not shooting, they're probably smoking. I don't know why they
Speaker 1: wait till they get risky, you know, you know, Damn
Speaker 1: that's terrible. Whatever I say, it's just like they be
Speaker 1: hurt deep inside, you know what I'm saying, Like, man,
Speaker 1: that sucks man heroin ship. But you know what if
Speaker 1: you think I mean it goes hand in hand with
Speaker 1: the lean in the in the perks, in the in
Speaker 1: the oxies. That's a different world. But what I'm saying
Speaker 1: is it's a lot more serious of a world. Like
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is like you feel like you got
Speaker 1: to put it up your nose, like it's just war,
Speaker 1: shoot it up the next lef. I'm just saying, it's
Speaker 1: it's their downs, their opiate's, Like you're not just chasing
Speaker 1: hot no deeper ship going on some deep ship because
Speaker 1: usually you do Heroin because you can't afford the perks
Speaker 1: no more and the heroine hero brud. You could get
Speaker 1: some black tar heroin, So that's bullshit. But I'm saying people,
Speaker 1: most people who end up on Heroin now is because
Speaker 1: they end up sucked up off the pills and and
Speaker 1: and they're chasing the same hot the pills. At least
Speaker 1: people listen. I'm very close, I know, but it's different worlds,
Speaker 1: different worlds and reasons. You feel me Heroin is serious
Speaker 1: when you get into that. I know. It's like some
Speaker 1: people just want to get sucked up with some people
Speaker 1: like like I always right, ah is like forget like
Speaker 1: you're not about getting nothing under one fifty to two
Speaker 1: fift that line. Damn. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It's a whole different world with us. That's crazy, ain't no.
Speaker 1: Fitted all the line and all that ship that's that's
Speaker 1: that's that ship about the kid as soon as you
Speaker 1: hit it, oh for sure. And then you say bad
Speaker 1: ruge back in the day used to be doing for ecstasy.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, man, that's crazy. Yeah. I've drove through Baton
Speaker 1: Rouge a couple of times. And it was like, I
Speaker 1: just feel like Louisiana in general, there's just so it
Speaker 1: just it just feels like like the ethic. It just
Speaker 1: feels like you know when you be seeing sh it
Speaker 1: on TV right, like you'd be like I see New
Speaker 1: Orleans on TV and then you go there and you're like,
Speaker 1: this ship is like it just feels like so cultured,
Speaker 1: like everything is old, the buildings are from the fucking
Speaker 1: And then when we drove through Baton Rouge when we
Speaker 1: stop in eight, like it was just like, yeah, this
Speaker 1: ship is this ship is ill, Like you could feel
Speaker 1: it in the air, like it's something special about Louisiana. Bro.
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if it's the cage and ship
Speaker 1: or you know, it's it's it's something special about it.
Speaker 1: And then even like just food wise, some of the
Speaker 1: best food in America, Bro, definitely best food. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: crawfish and what's the pole boys? And is the food
Speaker 1: different from Bad Richter New Orleans or is it pretty
Speaker 1: much kind of consistent? Oh oh, I say it got
Speaker 1: little differences, but it's basically saying, are you like the
Speaker 1: main like the main thing is the season? So all's
Speaker 1: using like that, what is what is what is the
Speaker 1: go to seasoning for you? And what is it? Creole season?
Speaker 1: Is that something you can get anywhere? You gotta get
Speaker 1: it over there, get it? Not like when Dixon and
Speaker 1: stuff be having a certain I miss whind Dixie. Man,
Speaker 1: Why I live in Florida. Wind Dixie was so cheap?
