I'm not too familiar with everything. Yeah, 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.440 because you're you're mixed, right, So your mom what was 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.479 she listening to? See? My mama was more like all 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.640 over the place, like she loved like R and B, 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:28.000 oh school R and B. But like she grew up 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.640 on like country music, like that side like her mom 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:33.159 and them they like country music. Like when I go 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.680 out there for like and during the summer stuff, it'd 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:40.880 be like country pulling out guitar Like yeah, you know, 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:42.920 it's funny because like I just started watching this show 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.839 called Yellowstone. Have you heard of the show. It's with 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.279 Kevin Costner. It's about this ranch in Montana, some gangster shit. 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.280 It's like powerful with cowboys about a ranch. There's some 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:56.360 gangster ass ship. There's these motherfucking cowboys that be killing people. 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.680 It's fucking wild. But it made me like be like, dang, 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:01.480 I need to start listening to country because it is 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:04.360 I feel like country is kind of like rap music 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:06.680 but just for rednecks. No, I think I think it's 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.200 it's with all the music genres, like we be talking 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.600 about the same shit. It's just like our beats are different, 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:13.080 our flows are different. You know what I'm saying. We 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.560 all talk about fucking getting money and all type of shit. 0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:21.120 We're just saying it different. If you had to, like, 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:25.000 you know, give me like your top three influences just 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:26.760 as a rapper that you you know, because you, like 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:28.600 I said, you've been doing this a long time. Like 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:31.560 who was who was like very influential to you in 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:35.760 your style? Top three I'm gonna say for sure, Nikki, 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.440 because you know, I grew up like I was saying, 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.640 like my dad taught me about all these feelings that 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:43.280 came before me. But it's like it's different when somebody 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.360 come out during your generation, because it feels like he 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:50.120 touched me. She used to go like definitely heavy influence. 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:56.320 I used to what Nikki Gucci. Gucci always been my 0:07:56.320 --> 0:08:00.640 favorite rapper, like that slow Southern aesthetic like and then 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.560 you know I grew up around that lifestyle, so it's 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:09.240 like I appealed to that. Then I will say I'm 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:13.360 stuck between. I probably say t I, t I T Y. 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:15.560 You see t I is doing stand up comedy. Now 0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:19.760 he was on stage the comedy. Is he give me 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:24.800 the yeah, give me words? You know Gucci? Uh, you know, 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:27.160 Gucci to me is the greatest an R and hip 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.080 hop history. I think he's got the best ear we've 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:33.120 ever seen. Yet don't find him an artist that nobody 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:35.800 heard of and they're gonna blow yeah. And like if 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:37.360 you even just think of the people he's put his 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.040 arm around early, like the Egos or even like Ni 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.520 yeah Nikki exactly, Like what was it like to have 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:45.959 him put his arm around you and have him on 0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:48.320 one of your first records that really commercial? That ship 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.280 was solid because Gucci ain't just gonna stamp no bullshit, 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.320 you know what I'm saying, Like, you can't just pay 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:55.079 Gucci to do a feature and he just gonna do 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:56.599 it because you're paying him type shit. He got to 0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.200 actually fuck with you, you you know what I'm saying. So 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.199 when they was like, actually know a case in which 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:02.240 he did take some money from a Korean pop band. 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:04.360 It was a nice bag. Yeah, shout out to him. 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.640 But anyway, it was, it was, it was, it was 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:11.400 a great bag. So anyway, yeah, if you independing what 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.880 kind of money were talking about what I'm saying. But no, 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:15.880 like they was like, no, he fuck with you, like 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.920 he gonna pull up to the video, he gonna like whatever, 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:21.320 and he was just humboys hell. And then that's big 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:23.560 for Atlanta, Like you're talking about a nigga like being 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:28.400 from Atlantah, Gucci is legendary period. Like I feel like 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:31.440 he is kind of the mountain, the mount Rushmore in Atlanta. 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:34.280 Like we could talk about GZ and t I, but 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:38.280 I just feel like in Atlanta, it's Gucci and then 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:41.520 it's everyone else respectively. Yeah. No, maybe nationally when we 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.680 think of Atlanta, you put Gez up there. I just 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.760 think in Atlanta, Gucci is the he is the uh 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:55.400 he is that, He's the one. He's him, duncan he's him. Yeah, 0:09:55.480 --> 0:10:00.440 Yeah for sure for sure. So with this record, Big Energy, 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:02.120 this is a record that as soon as I heard it, 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.800 I said, Okay, she finally got her crossover record. This 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:06.560 is it, this is this is your moment. Like I 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:07.959 was like, okay, this shit is like a layer you 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:10.320 know what it's gonna do. This is a layup. The sample, 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:13.960 everything about it was just great, like it's you know, 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:15.640 I was talking to Lauri earlier and she was like, 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.439 it's just such an easy song to work. Like if 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.800 you don't play this song, you're a fucking hater. Did 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.320 you know that right away? As soon as you cut 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:24.840 the record like that, it had that potential, you know 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.080 what I did. But I would only say I did 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:31.240 because I'm so hard on myself. I'm so hard on myself. 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.600 The only reason why I feel like I knew that 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.480 is because first of all, I was working on this 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:38.920 song for like a week, like every day going to 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:42.560 the studio working on this same song eight hours. But 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.800 every time when I went back home, well to the hotel, 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:49.320 I was like humming that shit. So I'm like, this 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:51.800 shit means something. This shit means something.

I don't want 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:16.520 to say yes. I feel like it'd be such an 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:19.520 easy play. You guys are on the same record label. Yeah, 0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:22.480 let's just put it in the air. Doja Cat on 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.440 the Big Energy Remix? I like the way that sounds. 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.960 I like the way it sounds. I haven't even made 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.199 like a for sure decision on who I want. I'm 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.000 not sure you could put a man on that. Tell me, 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:36.679 could you put a man on the on the Big 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:39.360 dig Energy Remix? I'm not sure you could because because 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.719 you would, but you would have to, wouldn't you have 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:45.800 to kind of like be like listen, man, you can't 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:47.679 have no medium dick down there. If you can be 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:53.400 on the remix out, I don't know. Maybe you get 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:57.160 only fans girl that test it out like a I'm 0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.719 thinking about him for the I saw that he was 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:05.040 like and your big I'm curious. No, I think I 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.679 think it would be cool to hear a boy perspective too, though. 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:11.240 That's fair, that's fair, that's fair to be a girl. 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:14.480 What would the girl if a guy made a remix 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:17.400 to your record and but he put the male perspective 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:20.520 on it, what would it? What would it be what 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:24.520 would be like instead of would it be like clean? No. 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:28.000 I feel like they expecting it to be clean because 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:31.080 it's like big radio record. No. I mean like, would 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.000 it be like clean pussy energy or would it be 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:40.880 he said it would be the male Yes, oh big 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:44.080 dig energies. Because it can't be big clean energy because 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:51.200 that's not a track that sounds like you got a bodybuilder, 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:58.960 a bodybuilder growth or mo. Yeah. Probably like clean, like 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:04.640 like good a balanced pH energy, Balanced pH Energy. I 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:09.720 liked the balance page Energy. I like that. You know, 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:11.960 I feel like a lot of people have used the 0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:17.280 pandemic as an excuse to be lazy or why they popping, 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.320 or why they're broke. You know a lot of motherfucking 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:24.640 rappers who's struggling, right.

It's kind of like, you know, 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:15.879 I think a lot of those cities kind of blew up, 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:18.040 low key, like I know a lot of people who 0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:19.639 were just going to Atlanta the party, going to Miami 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:22.760 to party because they couldn't party here. We're going to Arizona. 0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:25.800 Even like Scott Steele, that ship just a sensitive subject. 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:28.920 Have you caught the Rona yet? I did have Corona?

Yeah, 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:41.040 mys was like the new variant whatever, that's like the 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:45.239 only Yeah, the O Marion Marion Marion's nothing right. It's 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:47.320 like a It's like a couple of coffee, only like 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:52.359 I only tested positive for like three days. Well, I 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:55.800 think no, no, I tested positive for like a week whatever, 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.680 but the like contagious stages on like three days, and 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:01.960 it just really feel like a cold, like I had 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:05.760 the old school where I couldn't smell. Oh yeah him so. 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:07.600 And it's funny because I woke up one morning and 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:13.560 my wife was cooking breakfast and I was like, you're cooking. Yeah, 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:16.080 I can't smell nothing, and I have like a little 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:18.920 small pump about taste. I could still taste, but it 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:22.359 was it was like seventy percent like normal. But so 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:24.919 I have like a little Pomeranian, like a little dog, right, 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:28.720 and he shat on the grass outside, and I said, 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.840 this is the real test I got. I got on 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:33.240 my knees. I took a sniff of his shit and 0:18:33.280 --> 0:18:35.760 I didn't smell nothing. I said, well, looks like I'm fucked. 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:37.840 Well Ali, I mean you know what I'm saying. That 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:40.119 could be a good thing, though there's nothing good out 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.480 of not being able to taste. There's nothing yet. So 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:46.320 I I do have a friend who allegedly can't smell. 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:50.960 His name is TJ. Complex. Allegedly I say, because allegedly, yeah, 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:55.680 he says, because he can't smell. He says that he's 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:59.840 never had to worry about woman odors in his life. 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:03.600 And I, while I do understand that could be a positive, 0:19:03.760 --> 0:19:07.240 to me, it's a serious negative because you have no 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.440 idea what you're signing up for. Down like you wouldn't 0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:13.480 like you would know, like if something was crazy, you'd 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:16.600 be like, I gotta rethink this. But for him, he's 0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:18.719 just and he can't taste either. So he's just kind 0:19:18.720 --> 0:19:24.040 of had coronavirus his whole life. Allegedly he was born 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:25.879 like this, Hey, some shit happened. I don't even know. 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:27.560 I don't even know. Oh, so the don't have nothing 0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:29.080 to do with he can't taste. He can't smell, like 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:30.959 since I've known him, it's been like since O eight. 0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:33.840 I wouldn't say that, like that's a good thing to 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.080 not be able to smell. I agree, But he acts like, 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:37.840 you know, it's a good thing, man, you know. I'm like, bro, 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:41.440 it's not a good thing. Yeah, no, it's not a 0:19:41.520 --> 0:19:45.760 good thing. Tasting would be the worst. Though. What do 0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:49.560 you like to eat? I don't like your mind went there. 0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:51.680 I see where it went. I just met. I just met. 0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.200 I was coming from a fat guy perspective talking about 0:19:56.200 --> 0:19:58.440 actual food and see I'm talking about it. If he 0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:02.720 can't taste, so that's another thing. If he goes down 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:05.159 there and it's and it's sour, you won't even know. 0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:10.000 I don't know. It could be bad. And if you're 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.000 at the chick like let's say he's in a relationship 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.479 with a girl, she low key could be like, man, 0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:16.119 I ain't even fucking showering and he's gonna eat my 0:20:16.160 --> 0:20:22.920 pussy anyway, what's the matter? This ain't that's saying balanced 0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:26.679 pH energy, not balanced pH energy at all. But in general, 0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:29.000 what you live in Atlanta, which is one of the 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:32.600 best food cities. I love going to Atlanta and eating, 0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:34.600 as a matter of fact, some of the best cuisines 0:20:34.600 --> 0:20:38.760 and strip clubs. Is it? What is your favorite ship 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:40.480 to eat? Like, what are you enjoy eating the most 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:47.480 ten piece of lemon pepper wet Wi strip club? Though?

I ain't gonna say wins on 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.960 my shin on no chef. But one time, like kind 0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:08.440 of recent, let's say, within like a year, that ship 0:21:08.560 --> 0:21:10.680 was not as good as it usually is. I heard 0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:13.600 killer Mic always tells me blue flame. Yeah, no, everybody 0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:19.240 say blue flame. Yeah, that's really like if you're going 0:21:19.320 --> 0:21:22.040 for like food, but you know that's more of like that. 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:27.200 Ain't the most touristy ship, are you?
