Every 169 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: other night there's some hip hop shit of the Apollo. 170 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: Little Kim's tearing it down. Yep, she's bringing Lola out. 171 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's the hot Lola, you know, a hot 172 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: song right now. And then I see they finally put 173 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: the Maze cam J. They show together the Free Headed 174 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: Monster Day out there doing horse and carriage. What's going 175 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: on in the city, but that what's going on. It's 176 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: showed time at the Apolo. Man though Steve Harvey needed it. 177 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: But it's good to see, you know, the Apolo Theater 178 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: becoming a viable place, and not to say it never was, 179 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: but you know, to see talent back in Hallom, you know, performing, 180 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: you know, it's just a great vibe. I mean I 181 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: didn't go to those shows, but you know, I saw 182 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: a couple of clips, you know, circling online. So it's 183 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: a good venue. You know, there's not too many venues 184 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: in New York City anymore. A lot of them got 185 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: shut down. So you know, I think this is good 186 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: that people can remembering that the Apollo is still a 187 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: great space to perform at. Take it up town, But 188 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: she was chilling.

You know what we got 1005 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: to do for the record At that point, My mind 1006 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 1: is what you know, I's just going back to Vegas. 1007 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 1: I gotta you know what I mean. I'm so I'm 1008 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 1: back in a whole different mode. But I also I 1009 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,800 Speaker 1: just be wondering from the mentality spec space, like you know, 1010 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: we're just talking about this a minute ago, Like at 1011 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 1: the time of Money and Thing came out. It's no 1012 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 1: record like the record. It's Nigga's still using lines from 1013 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: that song. In twenty twenty two, Hony people have take 1014 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: the chain reaction line. I mean, I know it ain't 1015 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: my birst, but it's still my record. It's my song, 1016 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's like it's like 1017 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: how influential had was that song to hip ho hop 1018 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: and as a whole right, just period, and then like 1019 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 1: he talked about hating the Blood record, these are, by 1020 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 1: the way, these are my first songs. I had a 1021 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 1: song with Jada Kiss and Freeway when they didn't like 1022 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: each other Your Blood. They was beefing and I made 1023 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: a song with them and I didn't even realize they 1024 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 1: was beefing, you know what I mean. But I'm just saying, like, 1025 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,360 Speaker 1: you can't these are and I guess probably because I 1026 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,359 Speaker 1: don't like And that's why I feel like with this one, 1027 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 1: I wanted, like I told him, I wanted to go 1028 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: on I want to go on the tour. I feel 1029 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: like because even on Life in fourteen seventy, I didn't 1030 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: even go on tour. I just was like, I made records, 1031 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 1: I'm records, I'm gonna stand in the studio. This is 1032 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:51,800 Speaker 1: basically all I do. But with this one, I just 1033 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: I felt like he got because I went to the 1034 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 1: show he was hit in Atlanta. I went to his 1035 00:51:56,480 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 1: show and he kept saying this to me, and I'm like, 1036 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to register this and he's like, Yo, you 1037 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 1: gotta come out. My people don't believe it's real. And 1038 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, what does that fucking mean? I go 1039 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 1: to every show. What are we talking about? Like, how 1040 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 1: don't they how do they live in Atlanta and don't 1041 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: believe that I fucked with you? Oh, I don't believe 1042 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,400 Speaker 1: that it's real. So when he said that, I couldn't 1043 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: really understand it. But when I walked on the stage, 1044 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 1: I was seeing Nigga's faces and they was like they 1045 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:31,359 Speaker 1: looked like they've seen a goals And that, by the way, 1046 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: that gave me a whole new jode of energy for 1047 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,880 Speaker 1: this project. I came from that show and I started 1048 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: I started really like visualizing exactly what was happening. I'm like, Okay, 1049 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: so they don't feel like I fuck with you didn't. 1050 00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: This project need a little bit more of me, right, 1051 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 1: And we gotta, you know, we gotta do do. We 1052 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:55,880 Speaker 1: gotta really get in there right. And I feel like 1053 00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 1: in the process of that, it's just started making more 1054 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,320 Speaker 1: and more records, just more and more records, like we 1055 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,760 Speaker 1: may record last night.

But it's we like it, and 1063 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:28,320 Speaker 1: we have a good judge of like the music climate 1064 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 1: of each other's worlds, and were true to ourselves. So 1065 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: in that aspect, everybody liked it because of that. That's 1066 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 1: that's really what it. Yeah, I mean, but we also 1067 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: we also without us saying it, because I don't tell 1068 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 1: him nothing about his verses. I just let him figure 1069 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: it out. If I come up with a sample or 1070 00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,320 Speaker 1: some high idea for a hook, I'll say, yo, this 1071 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: is what I think the song should be called.

So we started on the song day 1075 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 1: before yesterday. That felt like we was trying to make 1076 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:11,439 Speaker 1: some New Orleans type bounce shit ye, and I could 1077 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,800 Speaker 1: tell that we was close, but we ain't had no 1078 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 1: cigguard yet, right, And he was like, you know, you 1079 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 1: gotta take things out, he was telling me, and I'm like, yo, 1080 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 1: you know, I really want to say you don't like 1081 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 1: to be but he was like, Jad, I think you 1082 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: gotta take things out. And then he said when we 1083 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: because we was trying to figure out this this thing 1084 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 1: about how like New Orleans they put this beat under 1085 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: every song they put Anita Baker on the bounce of 1086 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 1: New Orleans like and and most of the time the 1087 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: artists recorded the way they recorded and the DJ's putting 1088 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 1: on there. So we're almost trying to make the record 1089 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,799 Speaker 1: in that way. And that's how he wrote the rat 1090 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:54,280 Speaker 1: and I and I kept saying to myself, were trying 1091 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,360 Speaker 1: something that feels like a science project right now, like 1092 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: we're trying to do something that probably ain't really we're 1093 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: supposed to be right, And I think we both felt it. 1094 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 1: So then the next morning he's posted a video and 1095 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm watching the video and I was getting ready to 1096 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: call him, and he called me, like, JD, this is 1097 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 1: what we need to do, and we came to the 1098 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: studio and that ship came out. I'm talking about flying 1099 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 1: colors right, and it won't him tellingbod I need to 1100 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 1: take nothing out. He came in his motherfucker lay that 1101 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 1: ship down and shit went crazy. Mind you, I had 1102 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,279 Speaker 1: four seconds of that by acting like they to drop 1103 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 1: the whole? Is that the one they get the gap? Yeah? 1104 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 1: They talk about that songs the original song and yeah, 1105 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 1: like h like I was telling him like that was 1106 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 1: pretty much how I even found out that we could 1107 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,359 Speaker 1: make raps in New Orleans. You know what I'm saying, 1108 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: Because everything I heard came from somewhere else. So then 1109 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,840 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, like we we could do this 1110 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:57,879 Speaker 1: and they could be there player this on the radio 1111 00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:00,479 Speaker 1: even though we were from him. You know what I'm saying. 1112 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: Like that that ship was crazy as a child to 1113 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 1: see that because it was Michael Jackson LL cool J. 1114 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

So then that's how you end up with 1119 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 1: all it's like you and LV and other people like 1120 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: when cash money first started and all that shit like 1121 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 1: like it was it was. They were already ready to 1122 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:32,320 Speaker 1: get into so the ship was crazy, but everybody was 1123 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:35,759 Speaker 1: waiting to get into music.

I mean, that's the 1206 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 1: that's the biggest um, I guess hurdle is to try 1207 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 1: to make sure that y'all that didn't experience freak Nick 1208 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 1: um feel the energy that was actually in the city, 1209 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: because you know, in Atlanta right now, I'm not sure 1210 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 1: that five thousand, six thousand black people can go to 1211 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 1: Petmont Park and there's no violence. I'm not sure that 1212 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 1: that would happen. I'm not sure that that would happen 1213 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:43,280 Speaker 1: in anywhere in the United States. But Atlanta at this 1214 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 1: time was the place where people from other places where 1215 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: that was where it couldn't happen, that they was coming 1216 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 1: to Atlanta where it could happen, and it was like 1217 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: the Promised Land, right and you And so I was 1218 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 1: shooting in Petemont Park and I was actually telling people, like, 1219 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: in this section of the park, it was nothing but 1220 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:07,440 Speaker 1: black people everywhere, Right, It's just like Africa.

But at the same time, 1228 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 1: I wish every other city had this type of energy. 1229 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 1: So I'm just I'm just trying to make sure that 1230 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:38,000 Speaker 1: that that comes through the screen because that's a hard 1231 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 1: thing to try to you know, recreate and duplicate um, 1232 01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 1: because the energy was just like you know, it was 1233 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 1: it was.
