You have a number 19 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: one song right now, that's true. Um, I don't really know. 20 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: It's hard for me to take things in, especially when 21 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: I'm like in Tormode, So I don't know. I'm like grateful, 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: but you're still working. Yeah, it's like I don't know 23 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 1: how to take anything in right now. It was number 24 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: one two weeks in a row, right, two weeks? Yeah, wow, 25 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: today's Monday, might be three, might be three. Did you 26 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: just expect to success to this song when you recorded it? No? No, 27 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: to me. I mean I never think about that when 28 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 1: I'm making music. Like you know, I've been making music 29 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: for years, and I think, to me, it's always just 30 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: been just a process of getting better at making music. 31 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: So that song, Um, I just felt it was a 32 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: relatable story and that it just felt good to me. Right, 33 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: that's it. You miss the shot you don't take. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 34 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: And that's kind of the message of that whole song. 35 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: What so was this inspired by real, true life things 36 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: or any incident? Yeah? I always feel like that about people. Yeah, 37 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: Like I wish I would have said something, Yeah, because 38 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: I see somebody I'm crushing on them, just be like, 39 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: oh they look cute, gona be okay, and just keep walking. 40 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Why don't you say something? I don't know. But that's 41 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: also the thing about energy, right, Like, you know, if 42 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: the energy says no, sometimes you gotta leave it alone 43 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: because sometimes it, maybe just a comment like that's looks nice, 44 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: but no needs like the energy is not saying go 45 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: holler at the person. Yeah exactly. I'm like, yeah, that's 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: enough for me, Get him a compliment, keep moving. When 47 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: is the last time you've been in the situation where 48 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: you just had to holler? Though? I don't do it. 49 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: It's a bad habit. Why, I'm really shy kind of 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: think probably like it'll probably be like through a friend 51 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: or something. I'd be like, who's that? Yeah, you know 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: I got the like okay from the friend. I'm okay. 53 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: I'll try to say something, what Gemini characteristics? Do you 54 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: think you have all of them? Because Gemini's are a 55 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: little crazy and they're very manipulative. What yes, and they 56 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: can use their powers for good all evil. Yeah, that's true. 57 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: And they really have two different personalities. So what do 58 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: you What are the ones you said when you say 59 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: you have all of them? What are they? Like? How 60 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: hard is it to leave the house and not act 61 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: like Kanye? Oh that's easy, He's he's him. You know, 62 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: he's Kanye. We're pretty different, pretty different. You had a 63 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: relationship to We're at one point? Are yeah, matching tattoo 64 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: with him, you and him a little oozy. Yeah, oh yeah, 65 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: that just happen here forever technically, Yeah, did that age? 66 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: Well asked myself this question every day. It was just 67 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, sir. I know, yeah, you know, because 68 00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: that an actual friend, would you call him a friend? Yeah? 69 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure it was exciting when he said 70 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: what he said about you. How you know how amazing 71 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: you are as an artist. Yeah. No, he was kind 72 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: of definitely a huge part of um, kind of me 73 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: getting to it on this album because I was around, 74 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: like I said this on anything, but I'm on Births 75 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: Club so I can say it. I feel comfortable. But 76 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: I was like kind of like a ghost. So I'm 77 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 1: like Donda on Donda around that time at the stadiums 78 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: and stuff, and I never experienced nothing like that in 79 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: my life. And you know, I would just get these 80 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: different tasks, Like first I'm there because he liked my drums, 81 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: so I'm there programming drums. He's like, we need Steve 82 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: Lacy drums all over the whole album. So I like 83 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: programmed drums a bunch of times. And then then I 84 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: had like the duty just like reproducing some songs and 85 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: then it was just like this whole journey. But I 86 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: would always do my job and then go leave because 87 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: I was like working on my album. And yes, you 88 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: know he always noticed me, um when I would leave 89 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: you five days. Yeah, and then now I gotta go home. 90 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: Where are you at? Um? So we kind of maintain 91 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: a relationship over there after that. But I think just 92 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: watching the process of just like that collaboration and having 93 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: so many hands on your stuff but still it being yours, 94 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 1: you know, was super inspiring. And I think the work 95 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: ethic and like the bars element to um, just the thing, 96 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: like the whole like kind of like hip hop thing. 97 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: I kind of took that when I left that thing 98 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: and went went to the studio, worked online, and you know, 99 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: just kind of applied all those notes that I had. 100 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: Would you do with the White Lives Matter? Shirty sent you. 101 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: I ain't got one of those. I ain't got one 102 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: of those. Did you make some good connections because there 103 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: were so many artists there too, and produces and other 104 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: people working? How did that help you? Um? We just 105 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: stay friends, but no one on networked on my record. 106 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, some good relationships came out of it, for sure. 107 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: I saw an article you did in the Washington Polls 108 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: and you talked about how you just trying to stay 109 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: cool and comfortable but also grappling with you know, newfound fame. 110 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: So what's been the biggest adjustment to the fame. I 111 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I mean, it's privacy for sure. 112 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: It's not being able to do certain things. Having to 113 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: be super aware of who I am all the time. It's, uh, 114 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: it's kind of weird, yeah, you know, because I feel 115 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 1: like I'm someone who likes to do like regular regular 116 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: as things like um, so having to be reminded of 117 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: the perception of myself sometimes all the time, it's kind 118 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: of like woming. That's a hard one, reminded of the 119 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: perception of yourself, Yeah, because the perception of the perception 120 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: that people have of you is never really truly who 121 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: knows exactly. Yeah, really, you know, the goal is just 122 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: to be like a blob of energy, right just I 123 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: don't want it. You just want to exist right solely 124 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: as whatever the fuck you want to be in that moment. 125 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: So you know, I'm always trying to be there mentally, 126 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: and you know, sometimes it could feel limiting that perception 127 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: of self when it comes to like what other people 128 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: might think, you know. So, but I try my best, 129 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: you know, and my interactions to kind of delete that 130 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: too and just be like, you know, I'm whatever I 131 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: am right now, you know. Um, But yeah, it's it's 132 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's still something I'm adjusting 133 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: to every day, and I think every day is different 134 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: and every place is different to how they treat fame 135 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: and famous people. Yeah. One thing I don't like is, 136 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: um when people like sneak photos or something of me, 137 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: like without speaking to me, like just say hi, Like 138 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: I'll probably be down to take the photo, but don't 139 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: just like or if they post it later, like so 140 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: Steve Lacey in the airplane. Yeah, like that that makes 141 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: me super uncomfortable and it's scary, Yeah, because I feel 142 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: like people plotting on you. Yeah exactly, like you know yeah. Now, 143 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: also we um early on the internet. So what's going 144 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: on with that? I know a lot of you you 145 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: did like solo projects, but is that something that you 146 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: guys are gonna come back together and do something? You know, 147 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure. Is it something you're talking about? 148 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: Is there? Because it feels like, you know, people aren't 149 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: sure what's happening with the internet is right. You know, 150 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: I have no idea. I'm going to keep it a buck. 151 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: You have no idea. It was up to me, I 152 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: mean I would make another record, yeah, I mean, I 153 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: just love making music with everybody.

I mean, that's big being as you know, 158 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: you you're having a lot of successful The fact that 159 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: you say that there isn't that you want to do 160 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,599 Speaker 1: another album, yeah, because you might ask other members and 161 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: they're like, well, Steve, Steve's two busy doing a solo 162 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: number one record, you know, nah, things like that.

Very different, very different. 169 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: The first one was it was like a DJ and me, 170 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: like playing the instruments, um, but it was just like 171 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: super raw um, and this is just different because uh 172 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: it's like you know, bad habit and it's just I 173 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: think it's just like a huge shift of like kids 174 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: and much shows and stuff just cool. I often wonder, like, 175 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, is it I was just talking to sharing 176 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: about this. Is it hard to just sell music nowadays? 177 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: Because people want so much of your personal life? Right? Right? Yeah? 178 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like you're kind of selling I 179 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: mean maybe it's always been that, but it's like you're 180 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: selling like a story, right, you know, like something to 181 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: be a part of, Like it's any type of brand. 182 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's like why are you? Why do you 183 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: want to be a part of this brand? Um? So 184 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: I do feel like maybe now it does require a 185 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: little more like as an artist, like you need the 186 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: like persona, like the character of like who you are, 187 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: and with the music on top of it. Like I 188 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean maybe I would still be popping 189 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: if I had none of that too, but I know 190 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: that the persona of Steve Lacy is also something that 191 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: comes along with the music. You give me a Prince 192 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: fib oh, I appreciate it. Will you move? You know 193 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like I got a Prince tattoo right there? 194 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Oh word? Okay, okay, yeah, and even some of the 195 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: music gives me a Prince is my favorite artist of 196 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: all time? HEMI too. Yeah. So, like I said, shady 197 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 1: as fuck, you give me the shady energy tools in 198 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: the honest moments. Okay, I could be a little petty, 199 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: but you're saying relationships normally it ends because of you 200 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: or because of the other person. So did I take 201 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe me, Okay, probably me. That's an 202 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: honest moment. Yeah, probably I'll take it. I'll take that, 203 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: probably me. And why is that I don't know how 204 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: to do relationships yet I'm twenty four, right, and plus 205 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: I feel like my foundations are always faulty anyways, So 206 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: I feel like, oh, that's that's that's that's some self awareness. Yeah. Yeah, 207 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: I feel like my relationships don't start in a good 208 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: place that will like give us the longevity, you know, 209 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: So I feel like I will reach a point where 210 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: I'm like just trying to find shit to just be like, Okay, 211 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: this is getting on my nerves. So when you're saying that, 212 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: you mean like like they started with maybe just sex, 213 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: Like yeah, like exactly because we just fucking you want 214 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 1: to fall in love, right, and then I'll be like okay, 215 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: you know whatever, Like I'll just do it and then 216 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: be like okay, what the hell. It will be months 217 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, wait, what the hell is going on? 218 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: And then I just I just got got a dip 219 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: and then come back maybe and do it again. I'll 220 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: definitely be I double back. If you write a song 221 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: about people, back, I come back. If you write a 222 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: song about me, we go together for a long god 223 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: damn time. Okay, because they say Jim and I writes 224 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 1: is about ex boyfriend, right, Yeah, that's what I'm saying. 225 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: You can't write a record about me and tell the 226 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: world it's about me and didn't expect me just to leave. 227 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: Steve Lacy, Yeah, yeah, we don't talk. What Yeah after 228 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: writing a record about him? Yeah? Did he hit you 229 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: up about that? I played him the album right before 230 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: it came out, and then we kind of stopped talking 231 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: because you probably didn't express it under those feelings to him. 232 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: He probably just did it. I did. I did. I 233 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: was very vocal about what's going on, and I was 234 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: like this is what I played the record. I was like, 235 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: this is how it was feeling and stuff. That's gotta 236 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: be hard too though for you, because I mean, like, 237 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: you make that album, but then you go out there 238 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: and perform that album, so you're constantly thinking about saying 239 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: individual yeah. Yeah, well I feel like I wrote it 240 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: in a way that could have been applied to anyone 241 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: or anything. So you know, it was kind of a 242 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: fluid thing of not saying anything specifically to this person 243 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: to make it more about me, yeah, and less about 244 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 1: Does that help you with the healing process of breaking up? Definitely? 245 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: Really this album specifically helped me get through it real hard, 246 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: real Hardum. There was this moment I think that like 247 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: shifted my relationship to like journaling and work where it 248 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: was like two weeks after break up, I was really 249 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: pissed off.

I'm like this like one hundred 379 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: and fifty dollars suit from downtown. Nice I'm sure you 380 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: still made it look fresh. Yeah, you know, I did 381 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: what I did, all of us being and he's still 382 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: all excited about the Internet because it was like we 383 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: hadn't seen a hip hop like band since The Roots. Yeah, 384 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So y'all were like the first. Yeah, no, 385 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: that were the first.

I'm thinking, like, if you get that title, 392 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: it's probably everybody in the band. So I'm like, okay, 393 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: Like I don't know what to make of it. Matt 394 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: called me one day he was like, yeah, we're gonna 395 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: make you co exactly, Like okay, like whatever, you know?

Yeah, But I had no idea that 401 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: called problems with the rest of the group. Na, okay, no, 402 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: it was fun. And and then you started producing for 403 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: other people. I know you produced for some launch Ken 404 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: drinking Oh yeah, yeah, so those records. See I went 405 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: to the Grammys, well, I think when Damn I was nominated. 406 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 1: Well Damn got nominated, So I had a nomination for 407 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: that because I produced Pride, and then Apolo twenty one 408 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: I was nominated, and then Vampire Weekend I was nominated. 409 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 1: That's probably some other things I'm forgetting about. But yeah, 410 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: I've been I've been nominated a couple of times. Would 411 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: it feels better being nominated as a producer nominated as 412 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: a as an artist? I mean definitely as an artist. Yeah, 413 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: that's cool because at the time too, I thought I 414 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: was like, I feel like I knew I didn't do 415 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: my best on that album. So I was kind of 416 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: like mad at myself and in a lot of ways, 417 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: I thought that album was a failure for me. So really, yeah, 418 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 1: because I knew, I knew I could have spent more 419 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 1: time on it. I knew I could have did and more. 420 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: I knew I could have edited more. So I was 421 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: kind of like sitting with that and being like shit, 422 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: like I just rushed this. I was too anty to 423 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: put something out because I'm seeing everybody else. I just 424 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: had this weird pressure on myself to just be like 425 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: drop this ship, we're out a need to um. But 426 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: I still did it and it came out, did what 427 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: it did, you know, And I still ended up at 428 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 1: the Grammy. So I was like, oh, you know, imagine 429 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: if I gave it right, yeah, no, seriously, because I 430 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: feel like I wasn't. I wasn't caring, you know. I 431 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: kind of was in this like oh whatever, like fucking mentality, 432 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: you know. UM. And I think I had to you know, 433 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: all the quarantine ship, you know, you're sitting around and 434 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: really um seeing okay, when the world went back up, 435 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: who do I want to be? Or like what do 436 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: I want to work on right now? And you know, 437 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: I feel like I went in to do work that 438 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: would get me out of this like oh yeah, you 439 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 1: know you know. So I was like, yeah, I actually 440 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: do care, you know. And I feel like I started 441 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: consciously calling myself an artist when I was working on 442 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: this album. I was like, oh, this feels like my 443 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: first album as an artist, you know, because it was 444 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: weird being a producer, being in a band, like all 445 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 1: these things kept me from going as hard at being 446 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: my own artist. So I had to make a conscious 447 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: shift in my mind to say, Okay, I am an artist. 448 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: I do care about this, and you know, I had 449 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,719 Speaker 1: to look at the core of like why I do 450 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: what I do anyway, you know, And you know, I 451 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: had to. I realized that I have respect, you know, 452 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, okay, cool, respect for it, 453 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: like people haven't respect for you. Yeah, And I realized 454 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: I found like a new confidence in music that without 455 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 1: ego though, it's confidence of my love for something. It's 456 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: like I could be confident because I'm someone who loves 457 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 1: music and that's right. Get my confidence because I realize 458 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who do this shit for 459 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: the wrong reasons, you know. But I'm like, I'm a 460 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: person that would be doing this shit regardless of the 461 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: number one, regardless of the Grammy nominations, Like I would 462 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: still be in the studio making music because that's just 463 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: what I do. I wonder, you know, because I always 464 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: see that with like extreme extremely gifted talented individuals, the 465 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: thing that they suffer from the most is motivation, because 466 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 1: you know, how they say a hard work beats talent. 467 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: When talent doesn't work hard. Most people who aren't super 468 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: talented have a crazy work ethic, you know, because of 469 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: the lack of talent. But people who got that super 470 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 1: talent don't necessarily have the work ethic, and they got 471 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 1: to motivate themselves to get up and go do what 472 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: comes easy to then, yeah, you know, I definitely got 473 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: to find it for myself, Like, okay, but I try 474 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 1: to make something every day or this is a beat 475 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: or just a melody on a song. I'm always going 476 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: you need more breakups? Or what more breakups? No more breakups? 477 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: You're enjoying a single life, yeah, you know, and knowing 478 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: that you can always double back. Yeah, but I'll be 479 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 1: falling in love though. So it is really are you 480 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: a cancer custom? No, okay, I'm a taurist custom.
