56
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: Y'all? Was crazy? It. I actually started with like poetry

57
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and then you know, it just

58
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: transitioned into music just just easy, you know what I'm saying.

59
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: Because then I got into a pattern where it was

60
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: just like, yo, I don't necessarily have to rhyme a lot,

61
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying to do it. You know,

62
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: just as long as people catch on to what I'm

63
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: saying and you know, and and understand my story, you

64
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So they started with that and

65
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: then I just built everything else after that.

66
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 4: Okay, So growing I was just gonna say, so growing up,

67
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,320

72
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,200
