WEBVTT - AZJAH - A Spread

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to another episode of Eating While Broke. I'm so

0:00:03.320 --> 0:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>excited because today's dish looks absolutely nuts. But I am

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:11.440
<v Speaker 1>about to get fed by the official Princess of Compton, Asia.

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:14.280
<v Speaker 1>So what are you cooking for me today? So today

0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to be making a spread. Um, we got

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:20.440
<v Speaker 1>the nacho cheese, pickles, barbecue chips, hot chips, beef jerky

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and beans with chill, chilly with beans, right, tuck of

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 1>noodles and they you see what we do today. Oh

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 1>my gosh, super excited to chat down and get the chopping.

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Me too. And I was looking at all these ingredients.

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't too sure what to expect. I thought this

0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>was like going to be the tastiest romen I've ever ate.

0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.880
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be the tastiest from Yeah, so so far

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:13.679
<v Speaker 1>every dish on the on these shows, I've migrated to

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:18.760
<v Speaker 1>my midnight snacklist. So I'll gain at least ten pounds

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.679
<v Speaker 1>before the end of the season. Well, I think it's

0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:25.480
<v Speaker 1>like three. Every reason you will wait, I mean mainly

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>this dishes from like jail. So I personally didn't make

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 1>it a journeything. But my dad, he who taught me

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>this because he always fed this, which I love it

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.680
<v Speaker 1>as a kid. So does that mean your dad learn

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 1>this from jail and my dad, my brother, my big brother,

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 1>my uncle's or my uncles know how to make it.

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Everybody got their own recipe. I put this on time.

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Everybody got their own recipe. We like it like this,

0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 1>but they had oysters and sardines and stuff like that. Yeah,

0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna take the loodles like this crushed up and

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 1>just drop it in there. So this is a family tradition.

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.240
<v Speaker 1>It is, unfortunately what it is. They say it's not good.

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 1>It's not a good thing to eat. Well, some people

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:07.000
<v Speaker 1>that's been a jim you know, they don't like eating

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 1>it out. They say like it's a bad look. But

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:17.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not. It's not a hopefully yeah, hopefully not no,

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:21.000
<v Speaker 1>but definitely it's tasty. And as a kid, I didn't

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:25.080
<v Speaker 1>think of it as a gim meal. The best junk

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:27.079
<v Speaker 1>food meal on earth. What do you think it's gonna

0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:29.239
<v Speaker 1>look like like with these colors? What color do you

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>think it would be? I thought some of this was

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 1>like garnishes. That's definitely. I hate this since I was

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:43.680
<v Speaker 1>like four. So does anyone do you feel like anyone

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 1>else in l A or Compton, has ever heard of

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.440
<v Speaker 1>this dish? Because I know I have never heard of

0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you haven't heard of it. It's definitely like it's the

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>main thing through l A. Not even just l A

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>like New York, Like it's from New York and I've

0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing. You have to have someone that went

0:02:59.880 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 1>to jail. It's literally a jail thing. It's not even

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>like state and it's gonna be a jail thing. I'm

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:10.079
<v Speaker 1>from New York, so East coast, meat West coast, everybody. Yeah, definitely,

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>So right now, I'm just stirring it up just to

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>let that water, just to loose the lot those real quick,

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:18.320
<v Speaker 1>because you don't want them super or too soggy. So

0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 1>when did you get into music? I got into music

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 1>when I was younger, but not like really like would

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>really makes me get into music. It's when my brother

0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 1>got sentenced life. So that was about six years ago.

0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>He got sense his life. Yeah he got out and

0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 1>went back in. So he in jail right now. But

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.760
<v Speaker 1>that's what made me like start dealing with music heavy

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>because I was able to cope with how I was

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 1>feeling that time. Um and then from their own not

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 1>just like anything I deal with. I used music to

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>coope with so and I end up being good at it. So, yeah,

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.040
<v Speaker 1>I saw one of your I think it was a

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:57.360
<v Speaker 1>promo for like Adidas or Footers, and you were saying

0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that you started with poetry. Definitely poetry. I got that

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:02.120
<v Speaker 1>from Kanye. I used to watch the stand up like

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.360
<v Speaker 1>poetry shows and Lauren Hill, and every day Kanye West

0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 1>was doing poetry. He did like this poem that was

0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.760
<v Speaker 1>like crazy to me. Uh. I think it was one

0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of the stand up comedy shows at the n they

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 1>do poetry, yeah, like Deaf Jam. Yeah, I don't believe

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>it was Deaf Jail. And I remember Lauren Hill when

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Lauren Heill went up there in Kanye. If you find

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>please send that to me. I'm gonna google. I did

0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 1>not know Knnie did that. He had he had a

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>purple shirt on, some jeans and he did a poem,

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>like a crazy poem. So what I did was I

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 1>always used to write notes in my book and just

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>write how I was feeling. I was the one that

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 1>used to sing in the shower, just playing around. I

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't know that I could actually make a song. Like

0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:40.560
<v Speaker 1>my brother went to jail. I actually made a song

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:44.160
<v Speaker 1>like how are you like our oh wow? Yeah, and

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.720
<v Speaker 1>it was like a banger like it was called the One.

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:48.880
<v Speaker 1>It was you know, it wasn't all that, but it

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 1>was good enough for me to get some type of recognition.

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 1>So um I then I dropped a song called Time

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:56.160
<v Speaker 1>for It. I dropped that in two thousand and seventeen,

0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:59.039
<v Speaker 1>and it blew up. It's just now really blowing up

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>right now to but um I dropped that October two

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:05.120
<v Speaker 1>thousand and seventeen. Um, it's called time for It. I

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>had all the rappers from the city hitting me up

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 1>like Joe Loses, I had I talked to Tite Dollar

0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:12.360
<v Speaker 1>song like everybody started messing with me off that song.

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy. Think in that song, you you did it

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 1>two years ago and now it's yeah, now it's catching.

0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 1>You know they say a hit may take up to

0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:23.480
<v Speaker 1>four years to blow up. You got to reach all

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>over the world. Now do you find yourself like sick

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.279
<v Speaker 1>of the song? And then they're like, I want to

0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:32.599
<v Speaker 1>record something new, and your team's like, hey, uh no,

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>we're going to continue to work this song. I think

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 1>my team is sick of the song too. I'm sick

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>of a song. I'm sick of the song. I'm so

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.160
<v Speaker 1>thankful for the song. I love the song. It made

0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 1>me who I am. But right now I'm at a

0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.039
<v Speaker 1>point where the new music I'm making is more and me.

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I got to know myself way more so when I

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.600
<v Speaker 1>made that song, it was in the beginning, you know,

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 1>like I'm a whole different person. I always have to

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:53.839
<v Speaker 1>perform that song. So I'm sick of it for that reason,

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.800
<v Speaker 1>but i could never stop loving it. Yeah, but I'm

0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>thanking for the song, but I'm definitely on a new way,

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 1>Like I just I dropped the song in March called

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Purple Rain, and it was so different from what I

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 1>usually do, So I think that my fans are kind

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 1>of understanding what I'm going with it. Do you feel

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>like pressure now following up that way? Yeah? I always

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 1>feel pressure because the way it hit, it literally didn't

0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:23.599
<v Speaker 1>happen overnight, but it hits so fast, Like everybody loved

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 1>it and everywhere I go there like can you seeing this?

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.840
<v Speaker 1>And they're singing it? And like even the producers when

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 1>they send me beats, they send me beats related to

0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 1>that song. You know, that's not the way I'm on

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:36.040
<v Speaker 1>no more. But it's like it is pressure. But when

0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 1>you know who you are, you comfortable, you know what

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.800
<v Speaker 1>you've got in the storage, never really stressed about it.

0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.480
<v Speaker 1>You look extremely young. I don't know if I'm allowed

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:51.120
<v Speaker 1>to address this. No, No, you look so young. Yeah,

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't eat. I don't I'll never play the guests

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 1>and game. I'm gonna play it safe, especially for someone

0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:00.840
<v Speaker 1>that's cooking for me. Oh yeah, how would you think

0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 1>I am. I'm not gonna say, but I'll let you think.

0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:09.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not guessing the least skip next question? Good, no,

0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>because it can go anywhere from like thirteen the next

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>time the time. Yeah, but you know what, I hate.

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>I hate to say what I'm about to say, but

0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, it sounds like you're you got your family

0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:26.880
<v Speaker 1>has a little background in jail, and maybe like a

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 1>thirteen year old tattoo. She didn't mean it. I didn't

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 1>mean it. Breaking. Actually, my family they rested. It was

0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 1>hard for me to get this tattoo. Mama was mad,

0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 1>She's like, you better making a rabbit because you got

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.720
<v Speaker 1>that tattoo or Nicknall. Yeah, I can't believe you know.

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I knew Kaylanni I was first started, she was signed

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 1>with Nick Cannon and I worked with him for a

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.960
<v Speaker 1>long time, and she was she had to be like

0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:01.560
<v Speaker 1>sixteen seventeen and you had gotten a tattoo, I think

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>on her face and I remember going up to her like,

0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, someone's gotta save this girl. Like you know,

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 1>it was the beginning of her music crush. She was

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:13.160
<v Speaker 1>super talented but struggling artists, and I was terrified because

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 1>she had got this visible tattoo. And I was like,

0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say something, girl, what's you thinking? You

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. What's your thinking? What if this

0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:23.200
<v Speaker 1>music don't work out? And you know what her response

0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 1>was was like I don't care. This is all I

0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:28.679
<v Speaker 1>want to do. And if I don't do this, I'll

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 1>phold T shirts at the store or whatever. And she

0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:33.320
<v Speaker 1>was so determined. It's crazy to see her blow up now.

0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And I think it takes that level of as an artist,

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, like you sit back and you're watching everybody

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.840
<v Speaker 1>else around you. You know, if you're gonna make it,

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:47.840
<v Speaker 1>like you know, that's the artist that separate. Like I

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.320
<v Speaker 1>remember Nify said this, the only thing that I did

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.440
<v Speaker 1>was not stuck. So if you know you won't stop

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.240
<v Speaker 1>that little bit of you're gonna give up, so you know,

0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:59.080
<v Speaker 1>but if you keep going at it, and that's what

0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:02.600
<v Speaker 1>she did. She went number one last year, did you Yeah,

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:04.679
<v Speaker 1>she she had I think that went number one. I

0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>would love to see you guys do a collapse. Oh yeah, definitely.

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>We talked about it. I've met Colonne Um last year.

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Actually I met her. She came to one of my performances,

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:16.280
<v Speaker 1>but unfortunately a girl had got stubbed or something and

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>they had to like shoot it them and were laughing.

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:22.520
<v Speaker 1>After that we talked. Then became cool for us. I

0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 1>tried to give him my video. Didn't work out with Clune. Yeah,

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:29.800
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have her. We have to have her come

0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 1>visit the show. She definitely has had her her moments.

0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:37.200
<v Speaker 1>So what would you say is the most challenging uh

0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>thing that you had to endure so far as an artist,

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:43.680
<v Speaker 1>especially being female, especially going at the hip hop like,

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you had to have face some kind of uh,

0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what it is. I'm gonna keep the tra here,

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna start drinking the noodles. What it is is, ah,

0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 1>the comparisons I feel like as far as females, you know,

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.319
<v Speaker 1>you gotta have a rapper that sounds the same as

0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.840
<v Speaker 1>every other rapper. But when it comes to females, I

0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:03.640
<v Speaker 1>feel like a lot of people are harder on female artists.

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 1>And that's fun. You kind of got it, but you

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:07.920
<v Speaker 1>you gotta realize that before you come in. You know,

0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think it would be that hard, like, and

0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.319
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it's not a lot of respect um there.

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.520
<v Speaker 1>But other than that, like I just had to deal

0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:19.440
<v Speaker 1>with being compared to any and every artist, Like I

0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:22.160
<v Speaker 1>got compared to them, no, no foul to them. I

0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 1>love these artists. I got compared to Dash Love, which

0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.120
<v Speaker 1>is understandable. I got compared to Younger May Now that

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:29.719
<v Speaker 1>part I don't get because you don't seem to like

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.720
<v Speaker 1>but I love Younger. Maybe it's like everywhere I turned,

0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:35.559
<v Speaker 1>I was getting compared you know to this person that person,

0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.240
<v Speaker 1>So you have like their fans won't even give you

0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 1>a chance because they'll think you're a knock off, you

0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. But as time goes, I'm actually

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 1>like getting over that part. I haven't heard something like

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:49.720
<v Speaker 1>that love probably like a year. So that means, you know,

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm just coping it to my own But other than that.

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.960
<v Speaker 1>It's that, and then it's just the industry is like

0:10:57.040 --> 0:10:59.800
<v Speaker 1>high school like politics, and you know, you just gotta

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:03.440
<v Speaker 1>be conscious of the type of people you have around you.

0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>That's the main thing. Be cautious of the people you

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 1>haven't around you. I see your crew, it seems like

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.760
<v Speaker 1>they all are very tight now. Even when I was

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:15.840
<v Speaker 1>calling in to be like what dish, it was like

0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>immediate response. I'm like, did did they even talk to

0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>her about the dish? Like how did they know? You know,

0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 1>my dad is one of my men and my managers

0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>and family they'll be. He's like family to me too.

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.719
<v Speaker 1>I've been for a while now and we always have

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>like a brother and sister bomb, you know. So it

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:33.560
<v Speaker 1>makes it even better that he's a part of the

0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>team now and everybody else it's like, really my family.

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Like my aunt is my hair stylus, so she travels

0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:42.560
<v Speaker 1>with us. My mom is like the road manager, oh night,

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.960
<v Speaker 1>So it's like a family. Yeah. But before we had

0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>people coming around trying to get in because the song

0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>was hot, and they come in and we let some

0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:53.040
<v Speaker 1>people in that shouldn't been in, and you know that,

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:56.679
<v Speaker 1>you you live and you learn though, so se drain

0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:01.199
<v Speaker 1>and needs. So do you look at it only from

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.199
<v Speaker 1>a creative side or do you look at it from

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:05.920
<v Speaker 1>a business side? I look at it from a business side.

0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm really like heads on with the business. Like I

0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:11.599
<v Speaker 1>like to look over paperwork. I like to be the

0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 1>one talking to my little year, like, um, I look

0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.600
<v Speaker 1>at it as both. You know, So the business side,

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.520
<v Speaker 1>that's the same thing. It's just the politics. You gotta

0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:20.920
<v Speaker 1>be on top of your game at all times because

0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot of these artists they don't pay attention to

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 1>what's going on around them or what's going on at paperwork.

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I need to know because it's been so many times

0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:30.160
<v Speaker 1>where I almost made the real move. Yeah, but I

0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.520
<v Speaker 1>have my family to step in, Like Va was there.

0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 1>What would you say in your career so far was

0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:40.559
<v Speaker 1>a definite like wrong move? Are you able to share it? Yeah,

0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:45.439
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to name drop. But it's just people

0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that want to come in and manage you. Yeah, and

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.400
<v Speaker 1>they don't have the right intentions. People that come in,

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.480
<v Speaker 1>they just want to take off the relationships you have.

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:54.680
<v Speaker 1>So you might have somebody that want to come in

0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and manage you and then it's like okay, yeah, because

0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 1>she's popular right now, but they're not really doing their job.

0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 1>They're just trying to help to everybody, you know, come

0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:03.760
<v Speaker 1>back for their whole benefit. I have that issue. That's

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:06.240
<v Speaker 1>like the main thing with this industry. Other than that,

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:10.440
<v Speaker 1>there hasn't been no crazy issues for me yet. Again,

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:12.960
<v Speaker 1>do you feel like any of your friends have switched up?

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:15.719
<v Speaker 1>Because I know some people where their friends get a

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 1>little uncomfortable, they're like, oh, well you're blowing up. So

0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't even feel like I don't feel secure enough

0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:24.560
<v Speaker 1>to reach out. You have that, and then you have

0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:29.400
<v Speaker 1>the other extreme. It's definitely like, say, this family, Like

0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I said, my family is close to me, but it's

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 1>the family that I grew up with that I've dealt

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:35.880
<v Speaker 1>with all my life, who switched up all behind the

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:39.400
<v Speaker 1>music scene just because of the music, you know. So

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about family that's like your best friends growing

0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:44.160
<v Speaker 1>up and then now I don't even talk to him

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>it's been like four years. Yeah, yeah, so those are

0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.520
<v Speaker 1>type of issues. Definitely. Yeah, I see a plastic bag

0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:53.079
<v Speaker 1>coming out everybody. She just pulled out a plastic bag.

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 1>So this is a real Yes, Okay, what's going on here?

0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:00.520
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna do this. Let's actually all that this kind

0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of it's kind of hot. So what I'm gonna do

0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:06.319
<v Speaker 1>right now, actually, since you don't have an extra bag,

0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna just crush this up. You want to crush

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.559
<v Speaker 1>everything up when we get this bag out the way, Okay,

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.520
<v Speaker 1>all right, so we just want to crushure every pure good.

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 1>I should have brought a thunder on this episode. I

0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>got a crush the chips up. So typically, if you

0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 1>were in jail, this would be in a plastic bag

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.600
<v Speaker 1>and you just break it up. And they put it

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 1>in the bag and just break it up. You didn't

0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:30.880
<v Speaker 1>want to just use your bag? Might as well. I mean,

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:34.720
<v Speaker 1>don't worry. We're not jumping over here. We're not judging

0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:37.160
<v Speaker 1>at all. I could put the chips with the beet

0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.320
<v Speaker 1>jerk I gotta pull apart, non think pieces of beat

0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:42.760
<v Speaker 1>jerky either, and the beans I'll do least. Let me

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 1>get the chip. I wasn't too sure if you were

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:50.000
<v Speaker 1>cooking the beans with a nacho or no. Well, yeah,

0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna make sense. So I've never been so excited

0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>and intry. It's so good. What's your favorite this? I'm

0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Jamaican oxtail and then second New York Chinese okay, but

0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 1>not l a Chinese. I never had no other Chinese,

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 1>but Chinese. Ill here is terrible. It's horrible. And the

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.880
<v Speaker 1>pizza okay, okay, yeah you know New York, I got

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 1>pizza every block. Yeah. The dollar slices don't really count,

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:22.280
<v Speaker 1>those aren't Those aren't good representations, but they come in

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Andy when you only have a dollar. Let me ask

0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:31.120
<v Speaker 1>you a question, what about how was it? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:35.240

0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 1>want to go. I watched a lot the TV. So

0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:40.840
<v Speaker 1>my favorite movie is Crookly. I don't think I've ever

0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 1>seen likely. Okay, I gotta stop speaking on this because

0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>people are gonna judge me. I'm gonna get fired before

0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 1>I get hired. It's slightly Crookly, based about the kids

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.720
<v Speaker 1>in Brutly watching when you get the chest? So are

0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 1>you mixed? R? Yeah? My mom is creole. She has

0:15:58.320 --> 0:15:59.920
<v Speaker 1>other things in there, you know, like Creo was just

0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of yeh, mixed stuff so French. Oh no,

0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 1>but Manna did and someone uncle's do. They told me

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>a few things, but I don't really. I was gonna say,

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>if your mom gets upset, she doesn't break it out.

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:17.280
<v Speaker 1>My MoMA knows that's what would come out real quick

0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:19.240
<v Speaker 1>when she was about to beat you. I forgot what

0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>my nana used to say. She used to get nadyat

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:25.240

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:53.040
<v Speaker 1>that looks nice and red. Yeah, so you know what

0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 1>I might as well? Little's that here now? So what

0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>are your aspirations for your next thing? Are? You haven't

0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:05.639
<v Speaker 1>released a full album yet. I've released, uh, you can

0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.960
<v Speaker 1>call it the album rand I just released it ilpie me.

0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 1>So okay, so you're pouring the noodles in here. Okay,

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:17.120
<v Speaker 1>that's officially just got crazy. Everybody's about to get crazy.

0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:20.040
<v Speaker 1>You just poured the noodles in the plastic bag with

0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:23.120
<v Speaker 1>the chips in this bag, it's staying to something gotta

0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:29.159
<v Speaker 1>be carried. I hope the cameras above and every I

0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 1>wish y'all can see this. Yeah, it's like chips right now.

0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:38.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this definitely looks like something you would create

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.680
<v Speaker 1>in jail. Yeah, it's like you don't need too much

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>to make this. No, so what's the you guys don't

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:48.240
<v Speaker 1>use the chicken packets the seasoning packets. Yeah, I'm gonna

0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:49.600
<v Speaker 1>throw that in there, but you don't use it like

0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:54.160
<v Speaker 1>how you would with noodles. So why why the bag

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.720
<v Speaker 1>and not just mix it all in the pot. You

0:17:56.800 --> 0:17:59.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta mix all the flavors and there its better with

0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the bags. You can tell a word too, not the pot,

0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:03.600
<v Speaker 1>just like tell where you gotta shake it up. Really,

0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:06.959
<v Speaker 1>guess when was the last time you ate thistlea? Probably

0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:11.160
<v Speaker 1>like I eat this probably like every two weeks. What

0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:15.160
<v Speaker 1>But that's because that wait, this is a meal by

0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 1>choice because it's so good, not a budget meal, right,

0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:21.919
<v Speaker 1>because it's so good. But you know, I posted on

0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:23.600
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and they chewing me up. There was like why

0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:27.640

0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:42.200

<v Speaker 1>we've been getting into a lady. I don't capt, so

0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:46.440
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna kept about me and him been getting into

0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:48.399
<v Speaker 1>a lady. You know, my brother is just like Mesa.

0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:52.240
<v Speaker 1>We have rebumpads. But we'll start talking like mm hmm

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:56.760
<v Speaker 1>if we get into talk, probably like two months. But

0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I always I make sure he's straight. I don't like

0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 1>just leave him head. He's good though, if you ever

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 1>needed something, you know, yeah, you know, you look like

0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 1>he's good. Do you feel like you in third being

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:10.479
<v Speaker 1>broke or do you feel like you just kind of

0:19:10.480 --> 0:19:15.720
<v Speaker 1>just grew up in a household that's culturally enriched in um.

0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.919
<v Speaker 1>You know, my mom always kept me well fit, well dressed.

0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.679
<v Speaker 1>But you know, we experienced broke times. But at the

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.480
<v Speaker 1>same time, my mom and my dad they both like

0:19:25.359 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 1>kept a roof over us, like it wasn't like homeless

0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:30.640
<v Speaker 1>or don't like that. But we experienced till times where

0:19:30.680 --> 0:19:33.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, like my mom was just telling me, like,

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:35.880
<v Speaker 1>y'all sometimes I feel like y'all spoiled these days kids,

0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:37.440
<v Speaker 1>But y'all don't know how it is or you don't

0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:39.919
<v Speaker 1>know what you don't eat. But we never knew because

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:42.480
<v Speaker 1>the hype that from. You know, do you think growing

0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:45.280
<v Speaker 1>up in the hood or where everyone in the neighborhoods

0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:47.639
<v Speaker 1>on the same budget, it's like you don't even notice

0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 1>stature broke because it's like everybody's eating. Nobody's coming home

0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:53.840
<v Speaker 1>eating a lobster, so you don't really know. Yeah, that's

0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:55.159
<v Speaker 1>a that's a fact. Like where I grew up in

0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:57.399
<v Speaker 1>the woman to norms, everybody we all had the same

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:00.920
<v Speaker 1>a mental things. But if you leap outside to use

0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:03.600
<v Speaker 1>gates these projects, you see fast cars and we're not

0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:05.400
<v Speaker 1>chipping up that because where we are we don't see

0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:08.200
<v Speaker 1>that day to day. So like growing up, I thought

0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:11.119
<v Speaker 1>my dad was rich just because he always had him up,

0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:12.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's always old. Course was a him an old

0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:16.200
<v Speaker 1>car he cooked up, but he wasn't rich. I didn't

0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:19.960
<v Speaker 1>know I was broken till last started. What do you

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.200
<v Speaker 1>mean by that? Like, you know, you've gotta have the

0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.719
<v Speaker 1>chains and everything, and sometimes it's hard to keep up

0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:33.040
<v Speaker 1>when you you know, you didn't grow up with that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:37.960
<v Speaker 1>this looks like uh, some animals or something. And I

0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:40.119
<v Speaker 1>just saw the Reverend last night, so this sucks like

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 1>an animal. I don't say it looked like that. I

0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:49.840
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have said like this. Oh my gosh, that's we

0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:52.240
<v Speaker 1>needed more chips. But that's fine because we got the

0:20:52.359 --> 0:20:56.520
<v Speaker 1>cheese alright, So here's the cheese, right, Yeah, we'll put

0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.640
<v Speaker 1>it in there. Let's put a lot of cheese. Oh

0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 1>my goodness, you like cheese? Yeah? I love cheese. Making

0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:16.040
<v Speaker 1>is Honestly, you just keep mixing it up. Yeah, next time,

0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:18.520
<v Speaker 1>how LB we need a lot of sandwich bags because

0:21:18.760 --> 0:21:21.399

<v Speaker 1>then listen, I'll put it in there mixing. So if

0:21:30.920 --> 0:21:35.439
<v Speaker 1>your inspiration for your music originally started with your brother

0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:40.960
<v Speaker 1>going to jail, where do you see your inspiration coming

0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:45.639
<v Speaker 1>from now that? Yeah, Like my music don't just be

0:21:45.640 --> 0:21:48.400
<v Speaker 1>based off is based off a lot of things experience,

0:21:48.520 --> 0:21:51.080
<v Speaker 1>like especially like how my family did me. Like I

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:54.320
<v Speaker 1>told you when the music started going, like the separation

0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:57.800
<v Speaker 1>with that relationship stuff, you know, like do you feel

0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:01.480
<v Speaker 1>like family was like supporting you or eat it? I'm

0:22:01.520 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 1>feel like they were saying. I feel like they was

0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 1>because it was another rapper that they decided to that

0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:08.960
<v Speaker 1>wasn't the family that they decided to rock me. I

0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:11.440
<v Speaker 1>felt like it was. But they didn't know like that,

0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, they didn't know this rapper like that, but

0:22:13.840 --> 0:22:15.960
<v Speaker 1>you just came around they decided to run with it.

0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Was never no support and my big brother, he he

0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:23.720
<v Speaker 1>agreed with me all that, you know, like, I don't

0:22:23.720 --> 0:22:28.320
<v Speaker 1>support my sister. Yeah, let's probably put this this actual

0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:30.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna put it in here, man. Yeah, this thish

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:36.560
<v Speaker 1>by far takes the cake as the I don't I

0:22:36.600 --> 0:22:38.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know if anyone's gonna be able to top this dish.

0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:41.639
<v Speaker 1>To be brutally honest, you ask any other repper that

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:45.359
<v Speaker 1>really came from the trenches and everything. I guarantee you

0:22:45.359 --> 0:22:50.960
<v Speaker 1>they know about this. I worked up with this, but

0:22:52.640 --> 0:22:54.280
<v Speaker 1>you could just put it in one of these Yeah.

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:58.800

0:23:03.520 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>anything like this. It looks good, but it also looks

0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:11.720
<v Speaker 1>bad at the same time. You're gonna hear that it's

0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:17.119
<v Speaker 1>definitely ugly. But trust me, yeah it looks and you

0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:20.000

<v Speaker 1>Get these picturkeys. So what can your fans expect in

0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>the Yeah, a lot of music this year. Like last year,

0:25:04.520 --> 0:25:07.040
<v Speaker 1>I always dropped like one project and go goes because

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I was having issues when I said behind the scenes

0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:12.800
<v Speaker 1>getting my team together. But this year we altogether be ready.

0:25:12.840 --> 0:25:15.880
<v Speaker 1>So I think I'm gonna drop two projects, two projects

0:25:15.920 --> 0:25:21.320
<v Speaker 1>as a single, as an LPs, like ten like ten songs, projects, mixtapes,

0:25:22.320 --> 0:25:25.440
<v Speaker 1>a lot of singles. Yeah, I'm gonna just stay consistent

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:28.200
<v Speaker 1>the whole year. But now, don't you have to stay

0:25:28.560 --> 0:25:31.280
<v Speaker 1>consistent in working one single to get into poper is it?

0:25:31.440 --> 0:25:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Just like? Yeah, I always drop one single like something

0:25:34.280 --> 0:25:37.359
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it's a banger, like Purple Rain I

0:25:37.400 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>dropped at of March that went crazy. I got a

0:25:39.520 --> 0:25:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hundred thousand streams the first week. So now on the

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 1>business side of things, when you're releasing an album, like,

0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:49.200
<v Speaker 1>do you make money off the music or do you

0:25:49.359 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 1>just make money off of Yeah, because I'm independent, but

0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:54.760
<v Speaker 1>I got a distribution with Empire, but I'm independent, so

0:25:55.560 --> 0:25:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I still own my masters. So like if I do

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:00.360
<v Speaker 1>a song, if I drop a song, I get paid

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:03.440
<v Speaker 1>off of it. Now, in today's world, just to break

0:26:03.480 --> 0:26:06.760
<v Speaker 1>down distribution for artists on the rise, what do you

0:26:06.880 --> 0:26:10.119
<v Speaker 1>exactly need distribution for in a digital age? And this

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:13.240
<v Speaker 1>is a serious I have no idea question, Okay, seriously,

0:26:13.440 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 1>um the distribution. So basically, Woul imper a different me.

0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:21.440
<v Speaker 1>They distribute the distribute music everywhere Spotify, Amazon. You know,

0:26:21.960 --> 0:26:24.760
<v Speaker 1>you could do it yourself, but sometimes it gets a

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:26.639
<v Speaker 1>little hard because they might take it down if you

0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 1>don't do it the proper way. Spotify to people use

0:26:30.440 --> 0:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>tune core to distribute their music of Spotify, Apple, Amazon,

0:26:36.240 --> 0:26:39.280
<v Speaker 1>they distribute your videos. They help you. Also, they give

0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:41.200
<v Speaker 1>you like a marketing budget, so they'll give you money

0:26:41.240 --> 0:26:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to help market yourself. So it's like a record label.

0:26:44.040 --> 0:26:47.080
<v Speaker 1>It's it's like it's definitely especially they're giving a marketing budget.

0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:49.879
<v Speaker 1>They just take their percentag job, which is always a

0:26:49.920 --> 0:26:51.960
<v Speaker 1>short amount, or for me it is. They take their

0:26:52.440 --> 0:26:57.000
<v Speaker 1>percentage job and then it's still on the masters. That's

0:26:57.040 --> 0:26:58.880
<v Speaker 1>one thing I don't think artist should do these days.

0:26:58.920 --> 0:27:01.800
<v Speaker 1>A sign these big little deals where you get three

0:27:01.880 --> 0:27:04.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred four hundred thousand, but you don't own your masters,

0:27:04.920 --> 0:27:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and then that's all you get. You're not gonna see

0:27:07.000 --> 0:27:10.240
<v Speaker 1>anything else. See with me and Empire, I dropped my project.

0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I get my whatever little male from them, but I

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:17.480
<v Speaker 1>don't get too much where I got the exactly and

0:27:17.560 --> 0:27:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I still see revenue from my music. So how did

0:27:21.040 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 1>it feel seeing billboards in Compton that was the best

0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 1>thing game. But I think I Joe pass it, but

0:27:26.760 --> 0:27:29.359
<v Speaker 1>it was the best thing about it. My exit just

0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:35.600
<v Speaker 1>did me dirty, right, I'm gonna keep going. I'm so sorry, day,

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:37.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. I got to tell the story. My eggs

0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 1>did me dirty, right, like real dirty. It was together

0:27:40.200 --> 0:27:43.160
<v Speaker 1>like the years, and she had to see that billboard

0:27:43.200 --> 0:27:46.639
<v Speaker 1>every day. That's hilarious after we broke up. Like you

0:27:46.680 --> 0:27:49.360
<v Speaker 1>don't think she tried to drive around it. She came.

0:27:49.440 --> 0:27:52.560
<v Speaker 1>It was on a freeway after he broke up. I'll

0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:56.679
<v Speaker 1>start watching that career started. Yeah, yeah, So she has

0:27:56.720 --> 0:27:58.280
<v Speaker 1>to see all types of stuff at that time, and

0:27:58.320 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that bill Burt was one of them. I had to

0:28:00.200 --> 0:28:02.400
<v Speaker 1>so I had one the company and I had one

0:28:02.440 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 1>in the south Gate. I think do you think the

0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:10.760
<v Speaker 1>breakup gave you either free time to focus or do

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:14.800
<v Speaker 1>you think that sometimes people's energy being removed can just

0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:19.800
<v Speaker 1>pave a grade all the above? Uh? After I got out,

0:28:20.280 --> 0:28:23.200
<v Speaker 1>after I got off that situation, I just bloomed into

0:28:23.240 --> 0:28:25.240
<v Speaker 1>a whole different person. And then also it gave me

0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:29.359
<v Speaker 1>a draw like I was hurting, so that hurt turned

0:28:29.359 --> 0:28:32.920
<v Speaker 1>into a hustle for me. So I'm doing that. I'm

0:28:33.000 --> 0:28:35.120
<v Speaker 1>not sleeping. I'm at the studio because you're already dealing

0:28:35.119 --> 0:28:37.680
<v Speaker 1>with what's going on. Why not deal with it in

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:39.920
<v Speaker 1>a better way. You already can't sleep because you heard

0:28:40.400 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>I can't sleep, but the studio. Yeah, yeah, so that

0:28:43.680 --> 0:28:45.840
<v Speaker 1>was there ever a point in your career where you

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:50.600
<v Speaker 1>were like, I think I'm gonna quit. Yeah, because of

0:28:50.600 --> 0:28:53.360
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing with the family not supporting you know,

0:28:54.000 --> 0:28:55.560
<v Speaker 1>that bothered me because I was seeing what they were

0:28:55.600 --> 0:28:58.920
<v Speaker 1>doing for the other arts, like wearing T shirts with spaces,

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:01.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's like him like, yeah, but I'm pumping on

0:29:02.000 --> 0:29:05.440
<v Speaker 1>my ya. It's like, so what that bothering me? Knew

0:29:05.440 --> 0:29:07.160
<v Speaker 1>it was? To a poem, was like, okay, because at

0:29:07.160 --> 0:29:08.880
<v Speaker 1>the time, I feel like I don't have nobody like

0:29:08.960 --> 0:29:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I always had my mom, always had my dad. But

0:29:10.640 --> 0:29:13.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I don't have nobody still compared to

0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:15.680
<v Speaker 1>if it's in your face you yeah, of course, you

0:29:15.760 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>got twenty family members surrounding this one person, and you

0:29:18.920 --> 0:29:23.120
<v Speaker 1>got your households, and you still feel like but especially

0:29:23.160 --> 0:29:26.400
<v Speaker 1>when you think about parents, you kind of innately think, Okay,

0:29:26.480 --> 0:29:28.480
<v Speaker 1>they're always gonna be there, so you don't help them

0:29:28.520 --> 0:29:30.720
<v Speaker 1>as a cheerleader. Then when you get older, you're like,

0:29:30.760 --> 0:29:33.880
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, I wouldn't know how to survive without you, guys.

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:36.480
<v Speaker 1>But my family something special, like for real to people,

0:29:36.520 --> 0:29:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I got in my corner right now and they've been

0:29:37.880 --> 0:29:41.480
<v Speaker 1>with me through the whole journey. And like my mom,

0:29:41.640 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 1>like every time I have these situations, but for like

0:29:43.800 --> 0:29:48.959
<v Speaker 1>giving up. Oh every time, I all like I'm getting up,

0:29:49.400 --> 0:29:52.000
<v Speaker 1>giving up. She come to me with this long speech.

0:29:52.480 --> 0:29:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Hit it on the nose all the time. My mom

0:29:54.760 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 1>was like that person you go to she always has

0:29:57.440 --> 0:30:00.880
<v Speaker 1>something like something to say that makes you feel better

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:03.000
<v Speaker 1>and not she'll tell you about your bull crap, but

0:30:03.080 --> 0:30:06.360
<v Speaker 1>it's like she's genuine telling the truth. I really wish

0:30:06.400 --> 0:30:09.440
<v Speaker 1>we could take a picture of this dish. This dish

0:30:09.560 --> 0:30:17.080
<v Speaker 1>looks so good and colorful. Uh, And usually I would

0:30:17.120 --> 0:30:20.200
<v Speaker 1>have my phone on me, but this sucks because it's

0:30:20.200 --> 0:30:23.320
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful dish. Everyone should watch the video of this interview.

0:30:26.520 --> 0:30:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, Yeah, you need a cooking show. This

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:32.600
<v Speaker 1>is what I want to be. Oh, you're gonna mix

0:30:32.680 --> 0:30:35.320
<v Speaker 1>it in. It looks so pretty in I want to

0:30:35.360 --> 0:30:37.920
<v Speaker 1>mix in the bad the bag and look at that.

0:30:38.040 --> 0:30:42.440
<v Speaker 1>That is absolutely amazing, full of color, full of flavor.

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I've almost starved to death while she made it. I'm sorry.

0:30:47.560 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm so sorry. So I'm hoping that I could taste

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>all the cheese, the meat. There's meat in here, right,

0:30:55.600 --> 0:31:01.000
<v Speaker 1>chi and yeah, hooked me up. We're gonna take a

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:04.160
<v Speaker 1>bite at the same time. I want you to. I

0:31:04.200 --> 0:31:05.800
<v Speaker 1>don't want you to think it's nasty. If you think

0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:08.320
<v Speaker 1>it's nasty, just oh, you'll see it on my face

0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:12.960
<v Speaker 1>because my face scrunches up really bad. I've tried to

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 1>make it through interviews and and be like this is good,

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:17.480
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden I'll bite into something.

0:31:17.520 --> 0:31:22.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll be like, oh no, this is this is alright?

0:31:22.520 --> 0:31:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Here we go chairs, chairs, all right? See? Does it salty?

0:31:41.080 --> 0:31:44.600
<v Speaker 1>But I love the crunch. This tastes like chef for

0:31:44.720 --> 0:31:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I d with crunch. That's how I'm trying to describe

0:31:50.040 --> 0:31:53.280
<v Speaker 1>it to every every listener out there. But this is

0:31:53.360 --> 0:31:56.480
<v Speaker 1>like every for lack of better word, this is like

0:31:56.520 --> 0:32:01.680

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:07.000
