There's the college 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:57.080 white boy's side that they party like a motherfucker. Then 0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:01.160 you got us the niggas.

They 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:07.800 told me to go on the other side. They like, 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:09.160 you want to get the good food. You gotta go 0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:12.120 overever to the north side.

You got to 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:34.680 think when hip hop came around. 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.440 It came around around the town when I was a kid, 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:39.760 so it was like everybody would like we had a 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.760 rap in our neighborhood, which was my homeboy. So I 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.239 went over his house and we used to listen to rap, 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:46.800 and we used to call it stuff. But it was 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.760 just like fun stuff. It wasn't like, this is what 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.200 you're gonna do to be famous. Like the only thing 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.520 I just knew I was gonna be an entertainer. I 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.000 just didn't know how. So whatever was working, and the 0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.440 thing that worked the most was I was funny. 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.120 You know what I'm saying. I was entertaining, So I 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:03.440 just went with that and that's that's where it went. 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:05.760 But who told who told you, like, man, you're funny, man, 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:07.040 you should really take this serious. 0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:12.240 Nobody really it was like a did you like, was 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:14.880 you like the funny the person that was funny, that 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:17.600 joaned on people, cracked on people. Yeah, Almus cracked like 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:21.280 so they Honestly, I was really the bully out of 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:23.520 like it was big. I was the littlest person, but 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.640 I was the bully when it came to ranking. You 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:30.480 know what I'm saying, joning what y'all call it. When 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:31.920 I was in when I was in the room, I 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:35.480 used to rank on everybody, So that came organic for me. 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:37.880 And then when I moved to Atlanta. 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:41.280 My man he used to be he used to be 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:44.600 with a Hindu Entertainment which Coach K. That's Coach K 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:46.680 was probably the first person I met that was in 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:50.480 the industry when I first moved here, because he was 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:54.520 my man, was signed to them who Hindu who Coach 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:55.200 K worked for? 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.839 And he the one the guy. 0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:01.320 Matter of fact, it's it's funny how life worked because 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:02.960 the guy that put me on here, he like a 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:04.720 crackhead now on my street right now. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:06.960 And I'm not saying that in a bad way. 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.800 I'm just saying like sometimes that one person can change 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.200 or like that might be the only purpose in life, 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.800 that little that little part of the ecosystem switch you 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.880 over to make you who you is. So I guess 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:21.080 in a way, if it wasn't for him, I probably 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.320 wouldn't because he the one told me to like, man, 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.360 let's go up here to the comedy club, you know 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.240 what I'm saying. And I went up to the comedy club. 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:30.279 I think I went to Chris Tuckerble. I didn't go up, 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.160 and then the next time I went up. So I'm saying, like, 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:37.000 just just that little thing there, he he kind of 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:41.200 instilled that in me. Now that i'm thinking back, yeah, 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.400 I mean he made me actually like, man, you could 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.159 do that because he was like the man when I 0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:47.280 came up too, like he was. I was the man 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.280 in high school. He was the man in high school. 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.080 So when he left, he went to Atlanta, you know 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:54.599 what I'm saying. And then soon as when I got intwelve, 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.600 my first thing was like I got to get out 0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:00.520 of Jacksonville. So now that I'm thinking, maybe just made 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.600 seeing like him do it, I did it. And then 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:04.680 when I met got there, you know, when you get 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.359 it you meet whoever. You know, I saw him, you 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.800 know what I'm saying. So I clicked up with him 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.880 and are you a little douval yet? No, I didn't 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:17.320 become a little more Rolland you know what I'm saying. Extually, 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:21.000 I'm the nigga from Florida. That's how it was. Like 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:23.159 everybody from Florida linked up. When we first moved to 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.000 you knew Florida was like. 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.360 When you know you know what Florida. Yeah, this was 0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:30.480 like the nineties, Like this was I moved here in 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:31.120 ninety six. 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.359 So during that during the Olympics, like yeah, freak nigga 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.720 was down all but the Olympics at first. That's when 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.000 Olympics was here. So I had moved at that time. 0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:45.040 So we all clicked up. Everybody from Florida clicked up. 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.360 And I didn't start doing comedy until like ninety nine. 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:50.279 Wow, So what was that first time on stage? 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:54.640 Like nor hosting. He gave you the might recipe, he 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.880 gave you the mic, And I think if I wouldn't 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:58.440 have got a laughed out, I probably wouldn't have did it. 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.839 I probably wouldn't be doing that once. 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:03.280 I got nobody laughed you would have just been room 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:04.159 that night. 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:05.520 I probably wouldn't have did it. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.279 So it was all, did you have like a show 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:09.600 prepped or you just went up there? 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:11.360 And I went up there. I had one joke. I 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.360 had one joke joke. 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.679 I think I said something about they say black people 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:18.880 will make things out another I said, I think it's 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.000 Mexican's getting anybody that could take a two or Toyota 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.080 turst sell and turn into a pickup truck. 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:25.800 So that's what my joke was. 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.200 And at work that's the only thing I remember off that, 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.920 and then from that I had another joke, and everybody 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:33.880 knew me from one joke. One joke rolling, I had 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.800 a joke boy T shirts. I was like, and I 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:38.320 was like, man, I'm selling these T shirts. It was 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:40.440 a blank T shirt. You say they cost fifty dollars. 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.040 Back then, it ain't nobody paying no fucking fifty dollars 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:45.280 for T shirts. So that shit used to rip. So 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.120 those was my jokes, and they just spilled from that, 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.440 and I just kept going, kept going, kept going, and 0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:54.760 I started incorporating my comedy with music because I always 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.719 was like a hip hop a comedian, So I just 0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:00.919 enter twine into one and it was always me and it. 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:01.840 Here I am. 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.239 How did that lead you to entertainer? 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:05.039 Giving you a shot? 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:06.640 That was I was in. 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.200 I did that thing in Oakland. It was some type 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:14.160 of competition out there and I didn't win. But one 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:19.679 of the guys to manage his road manager ship man, 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:24.559 don't get mad and forget your name, can't s shit. 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:27.320 I forgot his name, but he he saw me. He 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:30.320 was like, hey, man said you going on the road, 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.440 and he taking up and coming comedians on the road, 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:34.160 and I think you would be good. 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:35.640 So he took me on the road. 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:38.600 Are yet no you still? 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.200 I didn't become a little Duval till I did coming 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:43.520 to the stage, And the only reason I did that 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:47.760 was because I got tired of repping my city by 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:50.400 saying like sometimes now I got tired. It was like 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.000 it was hard for me to sometimes just say I'm 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:52.680 from Jacksonville. 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:54.880 Yeah. 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.280 So now it was like, you can't help but know 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.800 from Duval by seeing my name because everywhere I went 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.640 and Florida, like, I was already popular before I got 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.360 on Copic coming to the stage because I had from 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:09.560 doing Sedric and doing comic View. So I was the 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.400 man in Florida so everywhere I went in Florida, they 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:14.480 was like, that's a little Duval because they knew me 0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:16.680 from Duval. So I was like, damn, they know me 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:18.880 from that. I'm finna call myself Duval all over the 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.680 world that way. I ain't even gotta I'm still wrapping 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:23.520 my crib and I'm still saying because like if you 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:25.320 listen to my first ship, I used to always say 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:27.560 Duval at the end of the every show. So now 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:29.560 I have to say it no more. As soon as 0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:32.319 they said so I knew what I identified from, not 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:34.240 just from Jacksonville, from people from Florida. 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:38.040 They knew off. Then that's inspiration. 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.800 Damn, this nigga here from where I'm from. So I 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.719 already I had already implemented. And so when I did 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.360 come to the stage, I knew. I was like, I'm 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:49.360 gonna call myself Duval from now on, a little Duvault 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:50.880 from now on. That's where it came from. 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:54.120 You question, I always wanted this was you on coming 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:55.719 to the stage where little JJ was on there. 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:59.000 No, but that's that goes back to the Mandela effect. 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.720 You know what i'mayingbout where they said you think you 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.160 remember something, but you really don't like everybody right now? 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:08.400 I think they saw me with Little JJ, but Little 0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.280 JJ was on there the season before me and he 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:14.480 won and I was on the season athletes see everybody? 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:15.560 Why does everybody think? 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:16.600 Because y'all slow? 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:20.280 Humans are slow humans really all slow, so they don't 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.160 realize that, but they think they do. And social media 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.160 don't make it no better. So you're thinking you're doing something, 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.280 but you really don't. You really don't know yourself. 0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.640 We'll be right back with more of a baller alert show. 0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:37.040 When did you meet T? 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:47.240 I uh like, probably, shit, I don't know when did 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:50.640 When did definitely in all the videos? 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.959 Shit, that had to be two thousand and one, two 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:54.360 thousand and. 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:57.240 Two, Yeah, right before because I'm serious came out. He 0:09:57.360 --> 0:09:59.680 wasn't like popping popping, but he had a deal, so 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:01.640 I knew around that time when they had dope boys 0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:04.240 in the trap and he didn't really pop to trap music. 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:05.680 So I met him through that. 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:08.600 I met him just passing by doing shows, and then 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.440 he used to come to the Cut uptown at when 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:15.080 we used to do Sunday Night with NAWD, So I 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.480 met him through that. So in between all that, we 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:19.719 just used to text through side kick and ship like that. That. 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:23.839 Then then once he got trap music, he blew up, 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.120 you know, So we just it was just natural. Like 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:28.720 people think it was like like a lot of stuff 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:31.000 I did was like all right, I I'm gonna get 0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:33.000 with this nigga and this would like they think I 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:35.200 blew up from being the hip hop commun and hanging 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.200 with Tip, But it wasn't. That was just we was 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:40.400 friends and it's just organic. If anything was Clay through 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:43.920 all that, honestly, because whenever we did shows, Clay would 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.880 put me on the host of the concerts, you know 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:49.320 what I'm saying. So he just said make sure you're there. 0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:51.480 I made sure I was there and I did them. 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.080 You know what I'm saying. It just organically happened. So 0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:55.360 that's how that happened. 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.839 Yeah, because you was in all the music videos at 0:10:57.840 --> 0:10:58.680 one at one. 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:00.760 Point because Atlanta was high at the time and I 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:02.120 was here, you know what I'm saying. 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.640 Like I said, it was organically happening. It was just 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:05.760 like I was. 0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:09.920 I was the young comedian and like like even with Ludacris, 0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:12.320 Lucris used to host, used to used to be on 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:17.040 the radio, so he a host the every every Tuesday 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:19.680 Wednesday host the Tues that went to radio person host 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:22.200 and he used to be there. So naturally you just 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.200 meet people and through that and that's how we became cool. 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:27.640 So it was just a natural thing at that time. 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.760 Everybody Atlanta was bubbling at the time. You know, one 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.679 O six and part was popping. So Atlanta had one 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.679 on six in Park on lock and I was on 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:37.520 all the videos. 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.040 It was strategic because I was like, man, how is 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:41.319 he in every video? 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.320 Because I was where it was at. 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:45.000 It's just like now, it's just like if you're on 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.560 social media right now, if you in the mix of 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:51.559 when everybody was bubbling, you just naturally in it. You 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:53.120 know what I'm saying, and if you know what you're 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:55.839 doing while you're in and you under I just understood 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.480 where I was and I capitalized on the same thing 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.200 with social media. I understand good off the beginning what 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.800 it was, and I just took advantage of it at 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.920 the time and understood and that just right now I 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:08.760 reaped the benefits of just being grandfather. 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:10.800 Then I know you're super cool with Charla Mane. 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:11.800 How did you guys get. 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:15.959 Cool social media? I met him. No, my space. I 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:20.000 just met him. Yeah, I d M him or whatever 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:22.400 was back then. We I was like, because he was 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:27.600 on ozone magazine. I was on Ozone magazine. I did 0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.280 ten things I'm hating on. He had another little thing 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:32.719 and so I hear them up. I was like, man, 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:34.520 fuck with you to woo. I was like, we need 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.360 to link up and do skits. I used to fly 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:39.400 up to New York. I flew up in New York 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:43.320 did the skits. And that was before skits was popping. 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:45.800 We was the one, the first one. The good thing 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:47.760 about social media you can look at all the time 0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:51.280 like we was really the first ones to do all 0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:54.119 them shit. So we started doing. That's how we built. 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:56.840 And I think the good thing was I never wanted 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:58.240 to be what he wanted to be, and he never 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:00.280 wanted to be what I wanted to be. You know 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:02.600 what I'm saying, Like you see the difference is now 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:07.120 everything is focused on media. So now media is popular. 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:10.480 I don't give a fuck about media. That's why HET 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:14.440 doing these podcasts. That's where all do. That's where that's 0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:18.080 what we don't evolved to now, you see what I'm saying. 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:21.040 So it's worked out perfect for in his work and 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:23.280 see it looks like it's but that's really what he 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:24.280 was already. 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:25.040 You know what I'm saying. 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:28.719 It's always been a media person. Just the industry has 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.839 moved on to that. So it's it's just been natural. 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:33.960 We've always been still cool to this day. I don't 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:35.000 want to do what the fuck he do. 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.240 He don't want to do what I do. It's just 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:38.400 the industry has moved to that. 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:40.360 So and they get to hear you every day on 0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:42.160 Donky other day went because he got you in the. 0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:43.040 Drop for real. 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:44.440 Yeah, I didn't know that. 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:47.320 You see, I don't be I talk this nigga every day. 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.800 I don't keep up with what he's doing. We just 0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:52.439 talk as friends, you know what I'm saying. And that's 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:52.880 all we are. 0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:53.720 Here's here. 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:55.920 He invented me about some ship that happened in there, 0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:57.360 and I vented him some ship. 0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:58.760 We're friends. You know what I'm saying. 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.600 I don't ask him for shit, he don't ask me 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:01.960 for shit. 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.000 But listen, that's our friendship is supposed to be, right, 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.040 That's what I thought. 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:09.760 But I mean in this indagey like if you if 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:11.440 you can't use your friends, it's used. 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:13.839 But I don't see it like that. You know, I 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:16.120 like having friends that we ain't. 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:19.000 We wasn't built off of that, you know what I'm saying, 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:22.400 even though actually I guess we was, but we really 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:25.360 wasn't because we just organically did ship. 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.160 So because y'all real friends, like not industry friends, I 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:29.000 think that's kind of what you. 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.520 Yeah, I'm a bad person to asks about how to 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:34.480 get it, how to do ship, because I do shit organically. 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.760 Everything I've done in my career I've actually did because 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:38.280 I want to do. 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.440 I moved by my own drum. So I'm the wrong 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:41.560 person to asks when. 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:45.080 It comes to how to make it because if you 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.840 go by me, you're probably gonna fuck up because I'm 0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:49.280 just doing what I want to do. 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:51.280 Or you probably you probably just not gonna make it. 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.200 You might not because I mean if you go by 0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:58.200 actually you could if you if you follow my by 0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:02.640 by my were ideologies of life because I don't move 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:03.320 by business. 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.120 I moved by being a genuine person. You know what 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.280 I'm saying. You might not make it a billionaire, but 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.160 you're gonna be happy in life. Yeah, you know what 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:10.640 I'm saying. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.960 So we was talking off camera about like how the 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:17.520 new generation of comedians, like everybody just doing anything to 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.520 make it, and you know, like, what's some advice you 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:22.080 would like really give people, like if. 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:23.880 They advice for these niggas. 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:27.880 I just I mean, I think we asked for too 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:31.120 much advices, were looking for shit, like words to change shit. 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.320 You just felt like everybody looked up to. I didn't 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.400 really meet him. I just paid attention, you know what 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:39.800 I'm saying. Like one of the people I looked up to, 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:43.000 my first people looking up to was Deon Sanders because 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:45.160 he was from Florida. You know what I'm saying, Just 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.720 identify the same way I'm saying I put a little 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.280 dovefall to make people identify identified with him because he 0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:51.400 was from a Florida nigga. 0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:53.000 And you know what I'm saying. He ain't. 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:55.720 I couldn't play no fucking football. But it's just the 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:58.440 fact that he was from there, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, 0:15:58.520 --> 0:15:59.600 it just gave me hope. 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:00.000 And I didn't. 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.400 I didn't meet him until I became somebody, you know 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:06.240 what I'm saying. But it's just it gave an instilled 0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:08.160 with me. I didn't he didn't tell me, all right, 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:11.320 do this do that. It's just I watched, so I 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:12.320 tell people just watch. 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:13.120 I don't. 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.760 But it's probably annoying, right, like a lot of comedians. 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:17.960 That I don't mind it. You know what I'm saying, 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.440 because once they used to do that. Andrew Shows used 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:22.480 to aggravate the ship out of me about it. That's 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:23.960 why I say, if you want something, you gonna have 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:25.680 to pull it out of me, and it's gonna be 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:27.560 people I give a fuck about. You know what I'm saying, 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:30.760 because I feel like certain people shouldn't get certain ship. 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.520 You know, I am a fan of you on social 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:35.400 media because you don't give a damn I. 0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:38.920 Do, but I do. You know, I do care. I care. 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:41.760 I just you're freely typing. 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:44.800 You're freely that's where your advice is in the tweets. 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:46.520 Those are very good. 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.600 I said, I come from an era. I come from 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:55.600 an era of social media where you said what's on 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.640 your mind. It's not like a like, I'm not making 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:01.160 a press release now, it's a press release everything you say. 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:03.680 So when I'm talking, I'm just saying what's on my mind. 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:05.880 I'm not saying it's facts, you know what I'm saying. 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.399 Just this was on my mind. This is how I feel. 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.679 But now we take it there these effects. This is 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:16.000 what you're heard what Duvall said.

I've 0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:53.000 had more turbulence. See with me, I don't fly unless 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.600 I see the weather perfect, so I don't catch too 0:20:56.680 --> 0:20:57.919 much turbulence like I do. 0:20:58.000 --> 0:20:59.440 But I don't not as much as I do. 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:01.280 On the cause you can kind of tell your pol 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:04.120 is like, yo, go this way to avoid this weather. 0:21:04.240 --> 0:21:06.240 Yeah, you can see the weather on your I got 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.080 an app right now. I check the weather all the time, 0:21:08.160 --> 0:21:10.680 you know, called for a flight. All of everybody in 0:21:10.720 --> 0:21:11.679 aviation use it. 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:13.600 But I mean I do it too. 0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:15.440 That's one of the things I do to to open 0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:18.920 our eyes up to understand the aviation because we really 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.240 lost and you know, we really really know because the 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:23.800 ship been going on for hundreds of years. When when 0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.400 planes invented, I got you, you know what I'm saying. 0:21:26.480 --> 0:21:29.440 So I mean, and how many niggas y'all know really 0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:30.360 got a plane for real? 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:32.680 I don't know anybody, That's my point. 0:21:32.760 --> 0:21:35.520 And we should know because now it's evolving to where 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:38.480 planes can damn them fly theyself now, so we gonna 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:41.600 be handicapped, like while people you know how people have 0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:44.000 to catch the bus now rely on the bus. If 0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:46.520 you can't fly certain shit, you can't do certain shit. 0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:48.920 So I mean we should get into it, you know 0:21:48.960 --> 0:21:51.760 what I'm saying. And I mean it ain't for everybody, 0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:55.800 but in my business, it makes sense for me because 0:21:55.840 --> 0:21:59.159 I travel for a living, so it made sense for 0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:00.280 me to give a plane. 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:02.440 Yeah, and I always see in the comments, like people 0:22:02.440 --> 0:22:04.399 always be like, you're not scared of being on that 0:22:04.440 --> 0:22:06.639 little plane and stuff like, I mean, that's what. 0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:07.760 That's what I used to say. 0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:10.000 But after a while, like I've been flying for like 0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:13.240 six years now, so over time now they're starting to 0:22:13.680 --> 0:22:16.399 more people like into aviation, not just from watching people 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:18.840 like me and other people like my man Male Mail 0:22:18.920 --> 0:22:19.480 the Traveler. 0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:23.080 He does acrobatic aerobatic. I don't want to say it wrong. 0:22:23.160 --> 0:22:25.879 He probably it's probably right, the wrong way to say it, 0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:28.040 but he make the planes flip and do all that 0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:29.560 type of shit, you know what I'm saying. So when 0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:31.920 you see people that look like you do it, you 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:34.520 end up doing stuff like that. So that's the only 0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:36.440 reason that's I mean, that's one of the reason why 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:37.840 I show it more on my page. 0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:38.320 Yeah. 0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:41.000 I like when you're posting content like that because it 0:22:41.040 --> 0:22:41.680 gives us something. 0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:43.119 You are, what you see you have. 0:22:43.320 --> 0:22:45.360 You have one of the rare things that a lot 0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:48.760 of comedians don't have. A number one Billboard single. 0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:50.560 Yeah, that shit was big. 0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:54.880 Now when you recorded that record look at my best life, 0:22:54.880 --> 0:22:58.000 my bad Yes, smile I could tell and correct me 0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:00.360 if I'm wrong. You just had a good ass time 0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:01.280 recording that shit. 0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:04.159 Yeah, I mean, but I always have good times with 0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:06.920 All My songs come from something i'm doing or a joke. 0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:09.680 So that song came from a joke for me saying 0:23:09.720 --> 0:23:12.680 smile bitch on on Twitter and Instagram, you know what 0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:15.320 I'm saying, And so I built it off of that. 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.160 So and I've always, like I said, I understood how 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.840 social media was, and I understood how I was other 0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:24.280 songs I was making big just from being me. So 0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:27.199 I knew if I could make these songs big, I 0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:28.840 could do the same thing with me, you know what 0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:31.359 I'm saying. So before that, I did killing with the 0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:33.720 shoulders you know what I'm saying shows, and I did 0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:36.160 that with Snoop what I'm saying, so. 0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:38.600 I like football grease on that ball greas. 0:23:38.800 --> 0:23:42.400 So once I did once I did that, I was like, oh, yeah, 0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:44.680 this next shit. But I didn't know it was gonna 0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:46.240 do as big as it was gonna do. When I 0:23:46.320 --> 0:23:48.239 read something, I threw it for like a joke. So 0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:50.520 when I go on my shows, I could just put 0:23:50.520 --> 0:23:53.400 it in my show. So to me, that's a win 0:23:53.560 --> 0:23:56.240 for it all. And so when I did it, I 0:23:56.280 --> 0:23:57.600 did it for that I was like, oh nah, this 0:23:57.640 --> 0:23:59.680 shit gonna hit, you know what I'm saying. But I 0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:02.080 was just gonna hit for like all my fans and 0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:04.879 all that. But then when I posted and I started 0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:07.560 seeing a thing did I started seeing how I was. 0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:10.960 Like, oh nah, this ship Finn changed the world? 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:15.320 Did that ship did curse? But did that change some 0:24:15.400 --> 0:24:19.280 things for you? Because music? You were putting music out 0:24:19.320 --> 0:24:22.480 but never to this level before it changed in the 0:24:22.520 --> 0:24:24.800 way Billboard is really your. 0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:30.000 No, because I was already making money before that.

How can this 0:32:47.040 --> 0:32:49.360 person bully you on the internet. 0:32:49.320 --> 0:32:49.920 From a device? 0:32:50.000 --> 0:32:52.520 Yeah, I never understood that.

You always energize the 0:33:13.120 --> 0:33:15.360 people and stuff like that. But I know sometimes little 0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:18.240 Duvault may have a bad day. You don't never have 0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:23.760 a bad day. Does anything stress you or anything like that. No, okay, 0:33:24.280 --> 0:33:27.240 answer this, then, how what's the mental space that you're 0:33:27.280 --> 0:33:28.480 in to be like that? 0:33:29.080 --> 0:33:32.160 Come from programming? I program myself like this over time. 0:33:32.840 --> 0:33:35.640 That's why I say there's conversations. We just talking to 0:33:35.720 --> 0:33:37.600 our ass catch fire. It's what you do every day 0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:40.600 is who you are. You know, we all are creatures 0:33:40.600 --> 0:33:44.520 of habit. So by me every day, over time, I 0:33:44.600 --> 0:33:47.880 progressed into the person that you'all see right now. So 0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:50.200 whoever you're trying to be, you got to progress into 0:33:50.280 --> 0:33:55.400 that strategically and understand your programming. Understand the programming that 0:33:55.440 --> 0:33:59.280 you are already in and reprogramming. You know what I'm saying, 0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:03.360 and be real with yourself and know like I didn't 0:34:03.360 --> 0:34:05.800 start getting smart till I accept it how dumb I was. 0:34:06.320 --> 0:34:10.120 So once you accept how dumb you up, you you 0:34:10.200 --> 0:34:13.279 move forward because you know I can't. I can only 0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:14.239 get better, you know. 0:34:14.360 --> 0:34:17.560 So I appreciate you spending some time. 0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:19.040 Yeah, we appreciate you for stopping by. 0:34:20.000 --> 0:34:22.920 Yo, I got I got another question too. So how 0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:23.880 did you get this plane? 0:34:24.360 --> 0:34:24.960 I bought it? 0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:26.200 What'd you buy? 0:34:26.560 --> 0:34:29.080 I bought? Well? This is my I got three planes? 0:34:29.600 --> 0:34:30.480 You have three planes? 0:34:30.560 --> 0:34:33.000 Yeah? I bought my first plane. I landed. As soon 0:34:33.000 --> 0:34:34.839 as I landed, the PDK, that bitch cut off. 0:34:35.800 --> 0:34:37.040 Do you fly your own plane? 0:34:37.239 --> 0:34:39.920 Yeah? I do, well I haven't later because I got 0:34:39.960 --> 0:34:40.560 a pilot and that. 0:34:40.840 --> 0:34:42.480 Like I said, I just getting back on the road, 0:34:42.480 --> 0:34:44.359 get back on my feet and ship like that. And 0:34:44.400 --> 0:34:46.239 my my flight struck, crash and died. 0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.439 So that was enough. I got a life. 0:34:48.440 --> 0:34:50.360 But I just it's a whole nother story. But anyway, 0:34:50.440 --> 0:34:54.120 so my my, uh, what happened was I learned through that. 0:34:54.239 --> 0:34:58.920 I learned through my first plane, just understanding, like how 0:34:58.960 --> 0:35:01.360 I learned, just put my going head first. So I 0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:05.360 bought a plane, learned about planes. Then gotta found a 0:35:05.440 --> 0:35:08.920 pilot and he taught me a lot. I got Blaine 0:35:08.920 --> 0:35:12.080 shot the Blaine now he works for a private company 0:35:12.160 --> 0:35:15.680 or whatever. And so through that I just learned.
