We started off with 30 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: the beginning people's careers. But there's a big elephant in 31 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: the room that I feel like I don't want to 32 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: go around it. It's a movie I want to put 33 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: in the beginning. Can we popped that bottom? It's the lace. 34 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: Let's put this hell. Because what people don't know is 35 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: everybody hit the internet that said that a certain label 36 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: to which his Tommy Boy Records, which I was signed 37 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: to at one point as well.

It was a 40 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: very elegant statement for what for what it's worked very late, 41 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: I thought for sports on myself. But when I heard 42 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: of the fact that they wanted to take your catalog 43 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: and we just tripod at a rate of temper set, 44 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: and that temper set would be split between the three 45 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: of y'all. Yeah, yeah, so how did how did how 46 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: did how did that even come about? Because the music 47 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: is not available online?

I mean we we missed the whole 49 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: that part of the canine. Yeah, before we even get 50 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 1: to that, let me ask you something. In the original 51 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: contracts there never stated anything about digital. Was no language 52 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: at the time, the bank language for it too to 53 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: just happen if it was never there. It was, I 54 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: guess I'm not trying to was specifically cassette by the 55 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: c DSHA and CDs was was was even in eighty nine? 56 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: Was c DS?

It was language in 59 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: the contracts, but it was real vague. You know, I'm 60 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: not certain exactly what it said, but it could be 61 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: something like, you know, CDs, cassette, vinyl in any format. 62 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: But so he could or any new change for now, 63 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: how did you get um this information?

So we move from digital digit pocket like 424 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: you know, like Parks smoke, so we did. The crazy 425 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: thing is just come from well, I think it started 426 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: from what the video for ego tripping, Um when you 427 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: got to the big eyes. No, we're we're in this uh, 428 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: we're in this mansion. You know, we're making fun of 429 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: ourselves in terms of like playing off, like if we 430 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: have an ego, but someone's questioning it. So Dave's riding 431 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: around in his car. It says like he don't even 432 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: own it. Stuff like that that checks and stuff like that. 433 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: But I guess Park thought, um, we're basically Adrian was 434 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: managing him at the time. Reached out to to our 435 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: people's right at Tommy Boy and he was just like yo, 436 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: he just feels like, um, y'all are trying to playoff 437 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: in this I Get around video and he was like yo, 438 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: and he was like pop, it wasn't even like this 439 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: did you do underground pot right he just first first 440 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: okay when money fees in that single? Yeah, yeah, So 441 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: and the way it was related to us, like Pok 442 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: was just just disappointed because he he loved us, mean, 443 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: and we immediately let him know. Liken, like we had 444 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: no thought about that. We didn't even see the I 445 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: see the angle. Yeah I don't notice that. I would 446 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: probably said something, but I didn't even notice it. But 447 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: I mean like kind of known when he was alive. 448 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: I'll apologize straight up because I I didn't see that, 449 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: and and that's definitely works on the intentions. I love 450 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: the brother. Yeah, it was unfortunately weird because when we 451 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: were told, I mean, we immediately was like, no, that's 452 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: not even the case. And then Adrian gave me the 453 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: number to speak to him, so you know that's by 454 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: that time, he had a crib out in Atlanta. Um 455 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: I tried to call him. I missed. I think I 456 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: missed this call. I called him back, but I left 457 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 1: the message. I said, YO, hit me back. He never 458 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: hit me back. But so then like maybe or whatever 459 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: year or so later, when you hear hear what was 460 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: going on the album, it just called us off guard 461 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: because you know, populous people. I mean, I remember a 462 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: time went on. You did a show out in the Bay, 463 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: you know, great show, and after the show, I'm standing 464 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 1: outside and some dude came up on me like yo, 465 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: you know, like you just send Caress one.

So 471 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: then the dude was just trying to get at me, 472 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: and Pop came out of nowhere. It's like you're young, 473 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: and like that's you know, that's people's and like so 474 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: Pok kind of saved me from any problem. So I mean, 475 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: like pak was always a good people to us. So 476 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: it's saddened it happened because we just didn't understand where 477 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: it where it came from.

And hopefully it 534 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: can revert back to you know, the artists of a goal. 535 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: It's his ownership of things, you know. You know, it's 536 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: good to see the new young folks, you know, doing 537 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 1: a business accordingly to a different standard. But you know, 538 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: there's a lot of us, you know, who are even 539 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: before us. It's like I always say to myself, why 540 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: isn't there a Vegas show of hip hop? You know, 541 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: why isn't there a show where it's like it's you 542 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: know who see you know what they're doing it now, 543 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: they're doing it.

You know, I think we can 550 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: go in those directions, and that's where you can begin 551 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: to incorporate brothers like Grandmaster Flash and Bellie Mail and 552 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: Work and people who deserve those positions and that should 553 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: be part of owning things and being a part of 554 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: the history and the legacy of it. You know, we 555 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: don't expect them always excuse me to put to put 556 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: records out, that's not what you know, really expecting them 557 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: to do. But there should be opportunities for them to 558 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 1: reap off of the what they create. The architect absolutely, 559 00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: and it's not about that era of saying our older 560 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: guards got to come at somebody and and expect something. 561 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: There's enough money to be made, where like an opportunity 562 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 1: you know you've seen it done. Another genres right, So 563 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: it's not like we are. It's a motown review. Why 564 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't it be a profile review?

I tell yourself something, when you look 605 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: at the streaming the people who pay them most and 606 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 1: I'm not on jay Z's pay roll, it's title. Why 607 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: is that? Like? Why is title given paying the artists more? 608 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: Like like Apple? We can put it on Apple, even 609 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: put it on Spotify and put it on a title. 610 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: Why is specifically paying more paying more? It's because it's 611 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: got a lot of to do it whole and pro artist. 612 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: You know, the beauty or of his position, in my 613 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: opinion is the period is now. You got a coach 614 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: who played the game, right, there's we always other coaches 615 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: who never played the game. Why are we gonna just 616 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 1: go out of supports titles? Why? Why has he banging 617 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: on that? Why is it investing in that for the 618 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: last When are we going to like suppower our own 619 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: like y'all great examples, because like like I'm sorry you 620 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,879 Speaker 1: cut you up, but I'm like when y'all said something 621 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 1: the whole if I like the whole hip hop community, 622 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: like I have power right now, you know what I'm saying, 623 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: Like I wanted to let you let you know that 624 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: y'all in the position of real power because it's it's 625 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: even the young kids are tuned in because they said, 626 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: you know, nas is there, Hold is dead, and that 627 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: the subject, the subject matter is what matters. So, um, 628 00:38:55,640 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: how do we how do how do uh capitalize? I mean, 629 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: it's great to monetize it. It's great to be able 630 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 1: to harness it and and changing change it into opportunities 631 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: to earn from. But you know, it's like, because of 632 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: the subject matter that we're dealing with right now, I 633 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: also see the opportunity to make legislation, you know, to 634 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: help your artists, future artists coming. You know, we could 635 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 1: all monetize this. There's great ways to to make that happen. 636 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 1: But we also got to think that the power is 637 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: greater than just dollars and cents. So, I mean, so 638 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: I would love to see what comes out of our 639 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: you know madness. It's legislation changing man, people fighting and 640 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: pushing for that. Hopefully this is this will inspire an attorney. 641 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: Hopefully this will inspire young entrepreneur or someone who's in 642 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: the game right now who feels like we need to 643 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: just change the rules a little bit, you know, So 644 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: capitalizing off it can be dollars and sense, but streaming 645 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: the business model behind streaming is still unfavorable. You know. 646 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: I just think Title is the best company, doing the 647 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: best they can based on their competitors, because they still 648 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: got to compete, you know what I mean.

So immediately seeing Sylvia trying to control 917 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: it kind of made us me like, I don't know 918 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: if we could it would be it would work it 919 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 1: when you felt like it controlling it always at a suggestion, 920 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: because you know, you figured I knew Sylvia, you know 921 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 1: from Renee of Clean being there that I was like 922 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 1: my brother in law.

You know, we felt 932 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: like that wouldn't be where we wanted to be, and 933 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 1: Atlantic going through trying to pull us in, and even 934 00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,600 Speaker 1: the gentleman who was overseeing everything, he was the head 935 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 1: of we are, like we want to this. He was 936 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: like a big day life and he's like, yo, why 937 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: don't you just be Warner Brothers. But we was like, look, 938 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: there's a perfect opportunity to be to be independent. So 939 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 1: we kind of asked for it, and you know, it 940 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 1: was the best thing to ever had in our career. 941 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: I mean that's like the biggest blessing man, just to 942 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 1: be depending. Yeah. Yeah, there was there a learning curve 943 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,479 Speaker 1: that you when you were independent, you had to figure 944 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,000 Speaker 1: things out that you didn't know. No, no, you're just 945 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: already kind of knew. Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean 946 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 1: we kind of made sense. It was comment sense, yeah, 947 00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 1: pretty much. And the responsibility ultimately it was on us 948 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: everything in the parts board and not to cut you. 949 00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,560 Speaker 1: I'm still going back to that. We we spent so 950 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: many years having control of how to do things creatively, 951 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 1: but and could see at like say with us being 952 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:04,560 Speaker 1: wanna rush rush and death jam of course was so blended. 953 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: We would see how Russell would talk to their artist 954 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 1: like your hell, you gotta do this. You'll get on 955 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 1: a train, go get it with boys the man go. 956 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Yo, you know matth, you 957 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 1: gotta do this. Like we just we couldn't go to 958 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 1: a label and having a label telling Daylight what to do. 959 01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: We have to be able to do what we need 960 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 1: to do. So we need to be on our own. 961 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: We needed to be independent to stay in control of 962 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: what we wanted to do.

You know, And I 1003 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 1: feel like the man, I don't think number the number 1004 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 1: was contented on what we were looking at around the 1005 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 1: industry at the time when we were considering that there 1006 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: what was coming. We're star ranging from a hundred to 1007 01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty, so anybody road of what we 1008 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:30,480 Speaker 1: thought was okay, what was achievable. It's a difficult thing 1009 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 1: to excuse me mas to be asking for money. It 1010 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:43,280 Speaker 1: started and it almost a human you know, feeling like, 1011 01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 1: am I begging here? Am I gonna look like I 1012 01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:49,160 Speaker 1: ain't got it? And we live at the time of 1013 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 1: the internet way there's some people who so it was 1014 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 1: kind of weird. So we didn't want to seem like 1015 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 1: we was greedy. We didn't want to seem like we 1016 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,960 Speaker 1: couldn't afford it because those were that wasn't that The 1017 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:07,960 Speaker 1: idea was too almost raise the awareness that you could 1018 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:12,200 Speaker 1: do this our sounds and it's pre sales. Really then 1019 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 1: you do donate, they get the album. It was a 1020 01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: man like a lot of you know, we offered a 1021 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 1: lot of things. You know, if you if you give 1022 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 1: up five grand, you go toy shopping with Dave. If 1023 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 1: you give up five grand, you go money man. So 1024 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 1: that time we got the recognize what do you get? 1025 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 1: You got the flash and also I'm sorry Dave. Within 1026 01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:46,680 Speaker 1: context of it, all immediately working on the album. We 1027 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 1: were working on the album, and we all knew labels 1028 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: that were actually interested immediately off the top, you know, 1029 01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:58,480 Speaker 1: from the band we worked with to ourselves. We have 1030 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 1: people definitely wanting to hear it without hearing anything, very 1031 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 1: interested in doing anything but Davis. But as creative we 1032 01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 1: were allowing ourselves to give the album. Is what made 1033 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:15,160 Speaker 1: us once again think that from a creative standpoint, we 1034 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 1: put this on the album because we put a song 1035 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 1: with you know, I don't know us and David Byrne 1036 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 1: and he's singing and then we rhyme like could we 1037 01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:26,400 Speaker 1: really do that? And that's what made us think like, well, 1038 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 1: why don't we raise the money to just keep it 1039 01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 1: be able to keep it totally creative, you know what 1040 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:34,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I have a label think like, well, yo, 1041 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 1: we're like you gotta you gotta put Kodak Black one. 1042 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:43,240 Speaker 1: It's one record I love astrictions that wouldn't come with 1043 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 1: being on a label with a short budget. You know 1044 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 1: what I mean hearing is it was already twelve years 1045 01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 1: we had made a record, so you know, looking at 1046 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 1: just the business side of it, that wasn't a good thing. 1047 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 1: For us, no one. We couldn't done a good sort 1048 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 1: that you guys did it because I think yeah we 1049 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:08,520 Speaker 1: congratulations congratulations as well? Why why why? Why why are 1050 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:12,480 Speaker 1: you ain't positive? Why you ain't uh trying to be 1051 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 1: like the head of Sony. You know what I'm saying. 1052 01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like is that is that 1053 01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 1: our next? You know? You know what I'm saying, because 1054 01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 1: like is it? We really are people from within or 1055 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:28,160 Speaker 1: at least systems? You think that's the thing. You know 1056 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Not for us, I'll speak for myself 1057 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:34,600 Speaker 1: perfect Like I can see you like a Spotify like 1058 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, you know what I'm saying, like like like 1059 01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 1: something like that, that's something interested in not me personally. 1060 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 1: And I think that I got those type of people 1061 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 1: in my band, but not me personally.

It isn't always pretty, 1235 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't always feel good, but at the end of 1236 01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:22,760 Speaker 1: the day, you know, I mean, in some cases, not 1237 01:19:22,840 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 1: all cases, if you work hard enough and you appreciate 1238 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:30,400 Speaker 1: the magic that you make with the people in your circle, 1239 01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:33,720 Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to go find it elsewhere. You know, 1240 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,000 Speaker 1: you want to keep that magic going. And I think 1241 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:37,840 Speaker 1: that's what hip hop for me is. I know what 1242 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 1: it is when you get that moment where you hear 1243 01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:43,000 Speaker 1: that beat, it's like, oh, you know you write that 1244 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,080 Speaker 1: versus about the magic in it, right, It's like how 1245 01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:51,720 Speaker 1: it feels yeah, yeah, And I think even whether it's 1246 01:19:51,880 --> 01:19:55,240 Speaker 1: it's it's we're talking about hip hop as a body. 1247 01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 1: So what you guys are doing here, it feels good. 1248 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:01,559 Speaker 1: It's a magic. And I think when you can when 1249 01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:05,759 Speaker 1: you can show that we could come together sometimes worlds 1250 01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 1: apart and keep something going and build from it and 1251 01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:12,760 Speaker 1: make it better and it create new things, that's important. Man. 1252 01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:14,960 Speaker 1: That's that's what I would want to You don't want 1253 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:20,680 Speaker 1: to embody, you know, as you know what the daylock do, 1254 01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 1: like just the idea of staying together through thinking thin 1255 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 1: and making things work and giving that example of others 1256 01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 1: to let them know that it's possible for them as well. 1257 01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:37,880 Speaker 1: You can you can sit three man group, got me goals, 1258 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:43,760 Speaker 1: got the box.

You know what here it is. You know 1563 01:40:37,360 --> 01:40:41,280 Speaker 1: in times, you know, were making overcast ourselves or maybe 1564 01:40:41,360 --> 01:40:44,040 Speaker 1: even undersell our subs depending on the person you are, 1565 01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, depending on where you're at that moment in 1566 01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:49,080 Speaker 1: time in your life and what you need versus what 1567 01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:51,680 Speaker 1: you what your situation is at the time. You know, 1568 01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:55,000 Speaker 1: so it's all give and take here.

They were still doing their thing. 1575 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:18,320 Speaker 1: It's why they did penalty because I think they even 1576 01:41:18,360 --> 01:41:21,000 Speaker 1: saw themselves as a sonny. So I could see why 1577 01:41:21,080 --> 01:41:23,559 Speaker 1: you say they were major, you know what I mean, 1578 01:41:24,120 --> 01:41:27,080 Speaker 1: because they didn't see themselves like that chap they've been. 1579 01:41:27,160 --> 01:41:29,120 Speaker 1: They've been in the game, went in a du cham 1580 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:33,880 Speaker 1: when you think about it, you know, out Records doing 1581 01:41:33,960 --> 01:41:37,320 Speaker 1: that thing.

I was trying to get him a call, 1608 01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:02,479 Speaker 1: and he said that he didn't want to call in 1609 01:43:02,720 --> 01:43:05,120 Speaker 1: because he's actually trying to work it out with you. 1610 01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:07,280 Speaker 1: That's true, brothers, that's true. So he said he's trying 1611 01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:08,559 Speaker 1: to work it out with you. Brother, so he didn't 1612 01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:10,680 Speaker 1: want to mess this something by you know, getting on 1613 01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:15,479 Speaker 1: and something. So I respected that. But so that's true. 1614 01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:18,960 Speaker 1: That's okay, Yeah, okay, that's true. I mean that's that's 1615 01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:22,040 Speaker 1: what we're trying to do. That's what we were just 1616 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:24,920 Speaker 1: trying to do. But because we just we just want 1617 01:43:24,920 --> 01:43:27,200 Speaker 1: to find an happy place with all this, and we've 1618 01:43:27,240 --> 01:43:30,520 Speaker 1: been we've been really open to, uh, all the dialogue 1619 01:43:30,840 --> 01:43:34,280 Speaker 1: coming in from people hearing about this, fans or even 1620 01:43:34,320 --> 01:43:36,479 Speaker 1: people just kind of like on the outside. Whether they 1621 01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:38,760 Speaker 1: can look so like if we support you, but it 1622 01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:41,360 Speaker 1: can be like you know, why did you but why 1623 01:43:41,400 --> 01:43:42,880 Speaker 1: did you sign this? So why did you do this? 1624 01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:46,960 Speaker 1: So hopefully man even on their side, hopefully they have 1625 01:43:47,439 --> 01:43:51,400 Speaker 1: people having a constructive criticism and speaking to them. If 1626 01:43:51,439 --> 01:43:54,639 Speaker 1: you see them, see Tom see you'll speak to him. Yeah, 1627 01:43:54,920 --> 01:43:57,080 Speaker 1: I think he can. I think he can listen to 1628 01:43:57,120 --> 01:43:59,640 Speaker 1: them to the interview and actually neither way, you know 1629 01:43:59,640 --> 01:44:01,760 Speaker 1: what I'm because there's a lot of people who need 1630 01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:06,599 Speaker 1: these albums. I mean, y'all want to need these albums. 1631 01:44:06,680 --> 01:44:10,040 Speaker 1: This is a part of hip hop, that's a periods 1632 01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:12,920 Speaker 1: helping hippop. We can't tell the story of hip hop 1633 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:16,560 Speaker 1: and did not have that there, because right now it 1634 01:44:16,680 --> 01:44:19,120 Speaker 1: isn't there. It's just that there. That's like having an 1635 01:44:19,200 --> 01:44:22,360 Speaker 1: empty book that's not having and that's the book with 1636 01:44:22,560 --> 01:44:25,240 Speaker 1: no chat. And that's that's being able to see the 1637 01:44:25,400 --> 01:44:28,880 Speaker 1: dual value. The value is in the culture, in the 1638 01:44:29,040 --> 01:44:32,400 Speaker 1: history as well as your pocket. And if you only 1639 01:44:32,479 --> 01:44:35,599 Speaker 1: got a concept of one, that's where the problem lies. 1640 01:44:35,720 --> 01:44:37,800 Speaker 1: You know what I'm seeing Where y'all came in on 1641 01:44:37,960 --> 01:44:42,599 Speaker 1: this so young and early, maybe he should understand that, yo, 1642 01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:44,600 Speaker 1: you just he just has to break even on this 1643 01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:48,000 Speaker 1: to make more money in other areas. The white us 1644 01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:50,840 Speaker 1: to be the fire festival guy. Tom, don't be the 1645 01:44:50,920 --> 01:45:01,200 Speaker 1: fire festival guy. Tom. Don't mean that guy that I 1646 01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:06,559 Speaker 1: think that we have been able to sustain and achieve 1647 01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:10,160 Speaker 1: since they're back. We've been doing off things and been 1648 01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:13,240 Speaker 1: holding our corner, probably not been holding our horner, and 1649 01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:16,360 Speaker 1: probably never said anything right. I mean when they took 1650 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: whatever liquid.
