The thought process? 85 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 3: I'm sure you kind of like debated it in your 86 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: mind whether that was a good idea or not. 87 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 9: Maybe you didn't like, you know, going to a label did? 88 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 9: How did that come about? 89 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 4: Well? For me, Bro, I was always somebody that was 90 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 4: just like I just always kind of thought past where 91 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 4: I was at the moment. And for me, growing up 92 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 4: in the Bay Area, we got, like I said all 93 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 4: the time, we got a lack of infrastructure when it 94 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 4: comes to the hip hop music scene. So it was 95 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 4: hard for me to kind of develop the team that 96 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 4: I needed to kind of help me do find what 97 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 4: it was that I represent as an artist. So I 98 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 4: had to go elsewhere, and through going elsewhere, I ended 99 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 4: up leaving the Bay Area and coming down here to 100 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 4: Los Angeles. And when I came down to Los Angeles, 101 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 4: I started getting their rooms and learning different things, and 102 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 4: through that I kind of started developing like more appreciation 103 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 4: for the major side of things, because it was like 104 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 4: you get to kind of take advantage of like all 105 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 4: these different opportunities and relationships versus like you going through 106 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 4: this uphill battle. Especially for me, it was tough because, 107 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 4: like I said, I couldn't really develop a team, so 108 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 4: I had to hire one. So I partnered with Atlantic 109 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 4: back in like twenty twenty, like right before the pandemic. 110 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 4: My first single on Atlantic came out two days before 111 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 4: the pandemic. So for me, partnering with the majors, it 112 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 4: was always about being able to get my music scene 113 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 4: like from a order perspective, because I didn't really relate 114 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 4: to where I'm from. I don't really sound like the 115 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 4: typical Bay Area artists or have the typical sound, so 116 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 4: I always needed like more platforming in different relationships to 117 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 4: help me elevate what it was I was trying to do. 118 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 4: And you know, partner with the major label was easier 119 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 4: for me to do that than to take the independent up. 120 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 8: So at first, before you got to Atlanta, you were independent, 121 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 8: but you were Columbia. Yeah right, so talk about that 122 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 8: because you went from major to independent back to major. Yeah, 123 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 8: you know, there was still some money that was made. 124 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 8: There was a lot of money that should oh I 125 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 8: should what was that? 126 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 4: Like I always say, bro Columbia was like, so my 127 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: sister Chelsea, Chelsea Blfe, she just became the VP of 128 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 4: UMG Nashville. Shout out to Chelsea. But she's like the 129 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 4: person that really got me into the industry. Like when 130 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 4: I was driving down from the Bay Area, I was 131 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 4: working with Nick Nack. Y'all remember Nick Nack, I know 132 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 4: the name. Nick was a producer. He produced like these 133 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 4: hose ain't loyal from Chris Brown, but he from the 134 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 4: Bay A legend. Yeah, but he was like the first 135 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 4: person him and like starting six young Mirth. They were 136 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 4: like the first people I've seen move from the Bay 137 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 4: and come to Los Angeles and really start making the 138 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 4: name in the music industry. So I started getting in 139 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 4: touch with them, and I start doing the same thing 140 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 4: driving down from the Bay, linking up with them down here, 141 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 4: and through being down here, I was watching Nick and 142 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: Mirth like go to different major sessions and writing for 143 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 4: different people, and I was just learning things and I 144 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 4: was like, damn, I think I need to move down here. 145 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 4: So Chelsea was actually an intern at Innerscope at the time, 146 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 4: so she was just kind of like getting into the game. 147 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 4: She was working under Manny Smith. Shut out the Manny 148 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 4: and Chelsea brought me in for a meeting and my 149 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 4: music was terrible, but my raps was good. My music 150 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 4: was terrible, but my raps was good. And Manny he's 151 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 4: seen the potential in me.

You know what I'm saying, Because I'm 223 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 4: paying for this studio, I'm going broke. So they like, 224 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 4: we're gonna give you one hundred and fifty thousand, I'm 225 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 4: like running, running, Yeah, where do I sign?

She was the new A and R. 234 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 4: She got hired over there and the first person she 235 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 4: signed was me, you know what I mean? So she 236 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 4: brought me, Yeah, shut out to Chelse because that really 237 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 4: kind of like helped boost like my thought process on 238 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 4: what it is I need to do to better myself 239 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 4: to where when I got to Atlantic, I was more 240 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 4: prepared and kind of. 241 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 5: Knew how to you gotta go through that to get 242 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 5: to this. 243 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 4: I'm bad for being sous. 244 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 5: What'd you do with the one fifty book? 245 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 4: Or did you?

Phoenix 255 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 4: and d Brooks played a big part in that as well. 256 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 4: But I invested in myself getting better as an artist 257 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 4: and through that. By the time that deal was over with, 258 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 4: I dropped one song.

Like three weeks 260 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 4: after I dropped the song, and. 261 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 3: They let they just let you go, let me go. 262 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 3: And you didn't have anything you did have like anything 263 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 3: that you old them anything like that. 264 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 9: Nothing. 265 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 4: See, that's the good thing about labels. I'll be telling 266 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 4: like I'd be telling us that. Like I'll be like, 267 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 4: like you could just go get like a quick three 268 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 4: hundred right quick and just get them people with they 269 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 4: won't get out there like it ain't like the streets 270 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 4: where it's like you could even pay a nigga back 271 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 4: in the streets. He gonna always remind you remember, let 272 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 4: you hold that three hundred thousands. 273 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 5: Man, you old me this. 274 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 4: Like it's different. It's like it's business like you know, 275 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 4: you take what you get from when you However, the 276 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 4: business deal go is. 277 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 9: How I go. 278 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 3: So one of the things that I so from my 279 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: advantage point, the major label gives you that start them right, 280 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: It gives you like the push it it pushes you 281 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 3: on different platforms. 282 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 9: They play your song on the radio. That you know. 283 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 3: The downside to that is most of the time they 284 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 3: own your music. They own the master's right. 285 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 4: Sit downside, depending on how you look at. 286 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 9: It, them only your master's all right, what's your what's 287 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 9: your take on. 288 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 4: That some people can't do ship with their own masters? 289 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 4: Und you just making thirty five dollars every ninety days 290 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 4: off your music and you own your rights, why not 291 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 4: give up a percentage to get. 292 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 3: So you're comfortable with not owning your masters at the 293 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: moment because you see in the future you want to 294 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: own your masters. But right now you're looking at it 295 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 3: from a standpoint where your sacrifice not only your masses 296 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 3: now to get to the point where you have start them, 297 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 3: so your masses. 298 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 4: Deeper and deeper than stardom. For me, it's also learning 299 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 4: the industry, it's learning the game. So let's say one 300 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 4: day I'm not in a situation with Atlantic, I'll still 301 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 4: know who to call and who to talk to, and 302 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 4: who does what and what department at Apple? Who does 303 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 4: what is Spotify? And who I need to talk to 304 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 4: to get playlisted over there. So it's deeper than just 305 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 4: start them. It's learning the system. So one day I'm 306 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 4: going to have to create my own and then I'll 307 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 4: know who to go to to make that sport. 308 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, relationship, it's one of those advantages. 309 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 8: And it's I think even for us when when Charlomagne 310 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 8: was you know, we were over at Black Effect, it 311 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 8: was like, figure about what everybody's doing, because at some 312 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 8: point what y'all are building would be bigger and you'll 313 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 8: know the people to go to. Exactly, you said something 314 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 8: very important. You said that you didn't have the team, 315 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 8: you had to build one. And it made me think 316 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 8: of this this line on sacrifices, and you were saying, 317 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 8: the people that I'm with ain't the people I should 318 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 8: have made it with. 319 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 5: That's pretty complex, right. 320 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 8: So like talk about that because it's like you are 321 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 8: aware that these an't the people I should have been around, 322 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 8: the people on the other side of the people that 323 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 8: really gave me the push to get here. How do you, like, 324 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 8: how do you manage that? 325 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 4: So, like I said, bro in the Bay, it was 326 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 4: tough for me to develop a team in the Bay areas. 327 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,119 Speaker 4: It's tough. It's tough trying to break through, and everybody 328 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 4: got their own things going on, and it's not like 329 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 4: my friends are passionate about my dream. As I am. 330 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 5: Money, it comes with a lot of questions. How do 331 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 5: I save? 332 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 8: Where should I invest? Can I build wealth to pass on? 333 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 8: It's hard to know where to get the answers. That's 334 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 8: why the people at Fidelity do what they do.

So it's tough to make them a part 348 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 4: of that sometimes when it's like you growing at a 349 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 4: certain page and they not like kind of growing at 350 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 4: the job that they need to do to help keep 351 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 4: you there, you know what I mean. So it was 352 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 4: very tough for me to try to like put a 353 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 4: team together amongst who I was around, So I had 354 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 4: to go find outsource help. So the people who ended 355 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 4: up helping me, like my production company who I'm signed to, 356 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 4: Star Island, shout out to them. They're based out of Philadelphia, 357 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 4: but that happened through a relationship that I had with 358 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 4: someone that they introduced me to them. We've seen eye 359 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 4: eye on the same things I seen. They just as 360 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,239 Speaker 4: passionate about what they do as I am with what 361 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 4: I do, and I'm like, you know what, I need 362 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 4: to link with them. They ended up getting me my 363 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 4: deal Tolantic, you know what I mean. So it's like 364 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 4: sometimes you gotta kind of reach out, you know, and 365 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 4: get outsource help. But that don't mean you gotta forget 366 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 4: who didn't help. It's still as you grow, you'll be 367 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 4: able to open new doors and find new roles for 368 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: people that was there before. 369 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: And I want to go back to the label thing 370 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: because that was pretty insightful. It's like, sometimes you have 371 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 3: to infiltrate the system to learn the system exactly to 372 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 3: create your own system. And that's something that Dane, you know, 373 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: Dan Dane always tell us that all the time, Like, 374 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 3: you know, cause we work with a lot of different 375 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 3: corporate relationships, like we gotta show a Revolt shout out 376 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 3: to Revolt. He did an episode with us and he 377 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 3: came in and he seems like a movie production. It 378 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 3: was like one hundred different camera men and all of that, 379 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 3: and he was like, Yo, how much does this on 380 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 3: cost to do this? 381 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 9: I don't know? 382 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 3: And he was like, well, why don't you know. I'm like, well, 383 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 3: this is this isn't our production, it's their production. He 384 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 3: was like, you turn into talent that quick. He's like, 385 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: you're supposed to know. Like he was like, even if 386 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 3: it's not, you're not paying for it. Now you understand 387 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 3: how a higher level production works and you can say, Okay, 388 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 3: this is needed, this isn't needed, this is no da 389 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 3: da da. And then when he said that to me, 390 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 3: I'm like, damn, he's right, you know what I'm saying 391 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 3: because now it's like when we're producing shows like that, 392 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 3: we already have the inside information because we've learned it. 393 00:19:58,840 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 5: A lot of. 394 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 3: People just go through it's just talent. They never take 395 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 3: the time to learn the business. But it's like that's 396 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 3: really like being an intern, Like you got the inside 397 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: a vantage point of how a corporate structure works. 398 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 9: And that's actually what we did. 399 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 3: Even like I said with iHeart, like you know, now 400 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 3: we see how contracts work, how to run a podcast 401 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 3: now exactly. Now we can run a podcast that we're 402 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 3: kind of merit off of. You know, we take some things, 403 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 3: we add different things. So I think people need to 404 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 3: fully understand that, like whether no matter what you do, 405 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 3: you play sports, you do music, whatever, it's okay not 406 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 3: to be the owner, but you should be learning. 407 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 4: Shit understand what's going on. That's a fact because it's 408 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 4: like you never know how you're going to need something, 409 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 4: you know what I mean, or when you're going to 410 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 4: need it. So it's like you could be going through 411 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 4: something you might think like, oh, okay, this is how 412 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 4: I've seen it done over here, so let me kind 413 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 4: of see how this works over here. Let me apply 414 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 4: something over here. But if you never see that you'll 415 00:20:58,720 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 4: never know to do that. 416 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 9: That's a fact. 417 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 4: So I agree with that bro in thousand. 418 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 3: So let me ask you this as far as you 419 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 3: have a very unique way of marketing yourself on social media, 420 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: right like freestyles and your active. 421 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 9: It's similar to Larussell. 422 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 3: Like, I feel like you guys because a lot of 423 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 3: artists don't utilize social media like they have like eight posts. 424 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 3: They're like very like artsy with it, Like they got 425 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,479 Speaker 3: like one post like with a banana and it's just 426 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 3: like no caption. I understand it. I guess a mystique. 427 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 3: But you guys, you on Instagram like every day like it. 428 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: So what's your strategy with that? Like you're just going 429 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: to just put out ten posts a day? 430 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 4: Now? See the Russell's different. L Russell do but six 431 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,239 Speaker 4: posts a day, like on a good day. On a 432 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 4: good day, I might give you two. But I tried to. 433 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 4: I try to curate like things of culture, you know 434 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 4: what I mean, like things that we haven't seen in 435 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 4: a while. Like I always like, like what would hip 436 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 4: hop in the early two thousands look like in twenty 437 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 4: twenty three. That's how I kind of approach social media. 438 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: So it's like like what would Pop be doing courtside? 439 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying with the camera out, Like 440 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 4: how would hold be rapping? What would he be addressing? 441 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 4: So for me, I'm always trying to find like cultural 442 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 4: moments that we as a culture could kind of be 443 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 4: like damn, this makes me feel something or just this 444 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 4: makes me remember a time in hip hop that I 445 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 4: was growing up or something like that. So for me, 446 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 4: it's always looking for cultural moments. I'm not like just 447 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 4: into like freestyling every day, like or just posting music 448 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 4: every day. Like I post the things that I like 449 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 4: to do, and I try to time into the culture 450 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 4: that I love and show people how we could all 451 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 4: come together through social media. 452 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, you said that community is your thing. 453 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 8: Yeah, building community, said, I'm listening to you and you're 454 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 8: talking about Mom and Mom was big on community for homes, 455 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 8: have real estate, right for a restaurant.

That's everything that's people are doing right now. 517 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: So talk about So we spoke to Acon and he 518 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 3: was talking about like how music for him. He was like, 519 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 3: if you look at all of the people that's really 520 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 3: been successful as far as like making a lot of money, 521 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 3: they ain't through it through music. He was like, his 522 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 3: thing was always just using music as a catalyst to 523 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 3: get into the door, to build your name, to get recognition, 524 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 3: and then just start spinning off and doing other things. 525 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: Obviously you still knewer in the game, but if that 526 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: something that you thought about or you're thinking about as 527 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 3: far as like, you know, using your stardom and then 528 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 3: you know, branching off and doing other stuff. 529 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 4: I agree with that until a concept, a certain word, 530 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 4: a certain word was through because all of this shit 531 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 4: happened through music, you know what I mean. Like, so, yes, 532 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 4: we may not obtain the money through real estate we 533 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 4: can make, but music is what gave us the money 534 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 4: to go into realistic So one thousand percent that's something 535 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 4: that I definitely want to do. Like I was talking 536 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 4: to Joe, That's who kind of taught me that. I know, 537 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 4: y'all know Joe, No, Joe Budden, Oh yeahah yeah, Joe. 538 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 4: I think Joe told me like two years ago, like 539 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 4: he was like, Bro, you're going to do good and rap, 540 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 4: You're gonna do all these different things, but you should 541 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 4: really lock into your other passions because it comes down 542 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 4: to what else can you do outside of music? Because 543 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 4: you have to do it again in different spaces. So 544 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 4: that's the whole reason why I wanted to create a 545 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 4: content house because it was like, what's the one thing 546 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 4: I'm missing to make me feel like I'm not giving 547 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 4: my best every day? And what I noticed is which 548 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 4: is something I'm fixing now. My schedule used to be 549 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 4: so scattered, you know what I mean, I'll be at 550 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 4: a session this day. I'm doing a podcast this day. 551 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 4: Somebody called me to do this video popping up. I 552 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 4: didn't really like create a balance, and because of that, 553 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 4: I would be recording at this studio or recording at 554 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 4: this studio with this engineer and this different engineer, my 555 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 4: music would kind of be sounding a little bit all 556 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 4: over the place. So I needed somewhere to like centralize 557 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 4: my creativity. And that was the whole point of the 558 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 4: content space. So what we're doing there is creating different podcasts, 559 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 4: creating different television shows, creating music and different brands for 560 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 4: different people, and gaming and different ideas like that. So 561 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 4: that's definitely something that. 562 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 3: So is that studio like anybody can just rent out 563 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 3: or is like in house, like these people are like 564 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 3: kind of like signed to you. 565 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 4: It's something people could rent out, but just not the public. 566 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 4: The public can't rent it out. But if you connected 567 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 4: and know how to get in touch with the studio manager, 568 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 4: the studio manager will lock you in to get through. 569 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 5: So you're building that right, So you're building the studio manager. 570 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 4: It's because we got it already. Shout out the brad, 571 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 4: my man, we got a studio manager. We're actually looking 572 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 4: for a producer right now to come in and produce 573 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 4: a lot of these different ideas that we haven't. We 574 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 4: just sat down with three different people this week, so 575 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 4: it's it's food like coming together.

Yes, spin on it is that 681 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: we all goats, we all goots. But everybody can't be 682 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 3: a goat. Let's be honest, you. 683 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 9: Can, can you really? 684 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 4: Because we're in the United States Constitution, is there laws 685 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 4: for a go. 686 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 9: I'm just saying because. 687 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 8: The goat, Well, we got first give comments to LLL 688 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 8: because before ll we never heard the word go. 689 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 9: But I think Muhamma Ali. 690 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's true. 691 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 8: If I went back and looked, he called himself the 692 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 8: greatest of all time. 693 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 9: Mohammad Ali called himself the acronym L. 694 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 4: He heard us that it was somebody before LLL. But 695 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 4: I can't remember the story, so I shouldn't even have 696 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 4: said that. But I heard it was somebody. 697 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 5: He was running with that he named his album that. 698 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 9: He definitely he was. Yeah, he said he was vocal, 699 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:13,720 Speaker 9: he was very vocal. 700 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 5: Acronym. 701 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,479 Speaker 4: He owned it. He was the first one that owned it. Yeah, 702 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 4: I think you can't anybody could be a go because 703 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 4: there's no law or there's no real criteria to say 704 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 4: who's the greatest of all time? 705 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 3: But do you do you water that? Like the word legend, right, 706 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,320 Speaker 3: it gets watered down. Legend definitely is everybody a legend? 707 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 3: But I think the legend there could be multiple. 708 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 8: Right, when you say greatest, it almost become singular, right, 709 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 8: like you're the greatest to do something, then you're the 710 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 8: best to do it. Legend is like multiple. You could 711 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 8: be a legend in different genres and different things. 712 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 3: But I understand why you said that, and I appreciate 713 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 3: the message. I think like, let's take a Dylan Brooks 714 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 3: right shout to him. But I'm just saying things like 715 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 3: that. That's where it starts getting dyling. Brooks is a legend. 716 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 4: No, he's not from my point. And Dylan Brooks could 717 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 4: be from some Canada or something. 718 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 5: Right, he's from Ontario. 719 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 4: He could be somebody that's the first from his neighborhood, 720 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 4: bro who did what he's doing in America. 721 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 6: But not even to them, he's a legend. He might 722 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 6: when he goes on the canvas of Oregon, he probably 723 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 6: a legend. 724 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 5: That's the fact. How many guys from organ make it 725 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 5: to the league and have a career, not man. 726 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 4: Leaves way. 727 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 5: I'll see you in the NBA next season, my brother to. 728 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 3: A false reality though, because a lot of even in rap, right, 729 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 3: there's rappers where you start to disregard like a true 730 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 3: legend right and say like, yo, he's not all of it, 731 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 3: and it's like that comfort. 732 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 4: It's so a legend. Yes, yes, it's a hurricane Chris, 733 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 4: a leegend. 734 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 9: Hurricane Chris Aby that legend word is just so strong. 735 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 4: It is Hurricane Chris is Hurricane Chris alleged No, because 736 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 4: he has a legendary soon. 737 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 3: Yes, is he not a legend because he hasn't his 738 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 3: body of work. I think in order to be a legend, 739 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 3: it's like a resume, right, the resume doesn't doesn't check 740 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 3: those one thing doesn't make you legendary. 741 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,280 Speaker 4: It's the pure definition of legend. 742 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 3: Doing things that nobody has ever done, being extremely consistent, 743 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 3: doing it on larger scales, being a pioneer.

Yeah, they gel off every day. 1103 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 4: But I was just over there, bro, just rocking with 1104 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 4: the people. I had my son with me outside. Bro, 1105 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 4: It's like twelve midnight. We just out there the neighborhood, 1106 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:38,319 Speaker 4: kicking in with the kids, and it was just love. 1107 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 4: It was love. So it's definitely a something that's a 1108 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 4: part of my life at this point. Because we actually 1109 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 4: ended up signing Lucky. Yeah, so we got him a 1110 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 4: spot over there. He has a studio over there now 1111 00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 4: because he was living in a straw house with seven 1112 00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 4: siblings his parents, don't you know, us fortunate. So we 1113 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:04,759 Speaker 4: actually you know, got him in a better situation and 1114 00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:07,359 Speaker 4: he's making music. But the thing that impressed us about 1115 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 4: Lucky the most was more than the music and everything. 1116 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 4: He said the main thing he wanted in life was 1117 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 4: to learn because he never really had the chance to 1118 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 4: go to school. So we're helping him, you know, get 1119 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 4: in school and learning. So more than just putting his 1120 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 4: music out and like trying to turn him to a 1121 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 4: rap store, it's like allowing him the ability to grow 1122 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 4: up and have a dream for like a lot of 1123 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 4: kids over there don't really get the time to dream, 1124 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 4: you know, so that's something that we want to provide 1125 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 4: for him. 1126 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 5: So that's context. Man. 1127 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 8: We talk about education reform here, but we missed the 1128 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 8: part where it's like there's people who only have access 1129 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 8: to education. 1130 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 5: So that that's big. 1131 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 8: I mean, when you were there in one of the 1132 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 8: things we saw was the amount of youth. There's so 1133 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 8: much youth. And so we always look at Africa as 1134 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 8: a place, especially Nigeria, as a place of like tremendous resources. 1135 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 8: Right imagine if you give or you help import education, 1136 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 8: import mindset, import infrastructure and business, what does the country 1137 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 8: look like? What does the concertent look like? Is that 1138 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 8: something that you plan to do going forward? Continuocy going 1139 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 8: to Africa, going to different countries. 1140 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 4: And so me and Victor actually is working on a 1141 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 4: project together and we actually are shooting a documentary that 1142 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 4: we started over there, and it's called Bridge the Gap 1143 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 4: and it speaks on and the documentary will be the 1144 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 4: first documentary produced by my media company that I was 1145 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 4: telling you guys about. But it goes into the difference 1146 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 4: between and so does the project we're making with the 1147 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 4: music to it. It goes into the difference between the 1148 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:51,600 Speaker 4: African and the African American and statistically a whole bunch 1149 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 4: of different things that we cover and why we are 1150 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 4: the way we are, and really kind of highlighting that too, 1151 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 4: motivate people over here to stop looking at Africa as 1152 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 4: a place with just kids with flies in they face 1153 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 4: that like what America shows us over here, Like like 1154 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 4: a lot of Americans think that a lot of Africans 1155 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 4: don't rock with us over there. And I asked that 1156 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 4: question over there, and that's not necessarily true. The media 1157 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 4: paints that perception, so we look at them that way 1158 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 4: and there's this combative spirit. But really, bro, our people 1159 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 4: love us. They love us over there. So if we 1160 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 4: took time to actually go over there and like, Okay, 1161 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:41,320 Speaker 4: let's build a school, let's build a gymnasium, let's build studios, 1162 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:44,080 Speaker 4: let's build Like I've seen three gas stations the whole 1163 00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 4: time I was there. Bro, Like, let's go build some 1164 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 4: gas stations over there, you know what I mean? Like, 1165 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 4: what's the process. Even if we can't figure out how 1166 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,640 Speaker 4: to do it, let's figure the process out so the 1167 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 4: next generation can't. But I feel like that's something we 1168 00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,919 Speaker 4: need to look forward to. Because on some real shit, 1169 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 4: like America ain't doing too good right now, jump, you 1170 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 4: know what I mean, And eventually we're gonna have to 1171 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 4: go over there and to see what's going on with 1172 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 4: our people. So it's important that we start somewhere. We 1173 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 4: gotta start somewhere. But that's definitely something I'm interested in. 1174 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 4: It's you know, getting some things going over there and 1175 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 4: bringing more people back over there so we could unify 1176 01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 4: over there. 1177 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 9: You know. It's interesting. 1178 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 3: We we've been tapping in a lot with the continent, 1179 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 3: and we were in DC a while ago and we 1180 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 3: were talking to some people from East Africa and one 1181 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 3: of the women specifically, she was talking about the movie 1182 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 3: Black Panther. 1183 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 9: Right, very insightful you from from the Bay Area. 1184 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 3: So like the Black Panther movie, especially that first one, 1185 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 3: it's a lot of hitting messages in that, you know. 1186 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously the Black Panthers Black Panther Party is 1187 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 3: starting in Oakland, but as far as like how she 1188 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 3: described it to me was el She was like, you know, 1189 01:00:57,080 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 3: it's it's like a parent that has a child right 1190 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 3: where the child might have been abducted and the parent 1191 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 3: didn't really fight for the child. 1192 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:07,440 Speaker 9: So it's two parts to this. 1193 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:12,200 Speaker 3: Now, the child starts to act out right, becomes more 1194 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:16,440 Speaker 3: sexually active, joins gangs. It's all out of like frustration 1195 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 3: because they have an attachment to their biological parents but 1196 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 3: they don't necessarily know them. But they've never really gotten 1197 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 3: over that feeling of just being kicked out and left 1198 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 3: alone and not like you never came back from me. 1199 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 3: And then the parents have some sort of a grief 1200 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 3: and they kind of feel some sort of blame for 1201 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 3: not going after the child. So it's trauma on both sides. 1202 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 3: And it's like the only way to really hell that 1203 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:47,439 Speaker 3: trauma is to be reconnected. And it was like kill 1204 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:49,960 Speaker 3: Monger in the movie, like he's a very rebellious person, 1205 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 3: and it's like his story to me is like the 1206 01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 3: story of African Americans, right, and it's like I feel 1207 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 3: like we've both been played against each other where it's 1208 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 3: like we look at it, not everybody, but there's been 1209 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,240 Speaker 3: a campaign in the media to be like all these 1210 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 3: Africans don't care about you, d D D DA, like 1211 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,200 Speaker 3: they sold you to slavery. 1212 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 9: D Then the Africans it's like, well. 1213 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 3: They're slaves, like they they're nonsense, they they're always troublemakers 1214 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 3: in America. 1215 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 9: They always get in trouble, they're killing each other, they 1216 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:22,040 Speaker 9: doing all of. 1217 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 3: That right, But it's like there's reasons for both sides 1218 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:29,440 Speaker 3: why there's dysfunction, and now I think it's dope, And 1219 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 3: especially with the music is now we're starting to bridge 1220 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 3: that gap and we're realizing that there's more similarities than 1221 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 3: and we have expertise that could be beneficial because we 1222 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 3: went through a system in America that nobody has ever 1223 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 3: gone and we survived it, and they have the resources. 1224 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:45,760 Speaker 9: So it's like, if we can if. 1225 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:49,600 Speaker 3: We can let our expertise with their traditions and their resources, 1226 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:50,960 Speaker 3: now that's an unstoppable combination. 1227 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:55,160 Speaker 4: It's very unstable. Would make us like the most dominique 1228 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 4: placed on earth, you know what I mean. Like I'm 1229 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 4: fully for it, bro Like I'm all for that's a 1230 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,680 Speaker 4: great that's a great analogy you just broke down to. 1231 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 4: I gotta rewatch the movie now from that perspect because 1232 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,480 Speaker 4: that's dope. You know what's crazy. Somebody told me over there. 1233 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:18,919 Speaker 4: It was like it was like one of the main 1234 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 4: reasons like we look at you guys with an eye 1235 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 4: up is because you guys put your data in retirement homes, 1236 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 4: and I said what you mean. They was like, you 1237 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 4: guys put your grandparents and your mother's in retirement homes 1238 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 4: when those are the people who have the information to 1239 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 4: feed the children. How the kids supposed to learn when 1240 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 4: you in the midst of living life and learning yourself, 1241 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,560 Speaker 4: those are the people that lived it. They're supposed to 1242 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 4: pass that down. That's something we don't do that over here. 1243 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 4: And I never looked at it like that. 1244 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 8: That was one of the conversations we had waycon as well, 1245 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 8: and he was like, the wisdom of the eldest. Yea, 1246 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 8: even at a level of successful quote unquote success that 1247 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,919 Speaker 8: he's had, he's still before he makes a decision, checks 1248 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 8: in with his eldest because they have wisdom, even if 1249 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 8: it's not in a business sense, they have wisdom of 1250 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:10,960 Speaker 8: life anything. That's one of the things that's missing that 1251 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 8: when we talk about generational gaps, it's like, how do 1252 01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:17,320 Speaker 8: we keep our elders as a part of the lineage 1253 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:20,120 Speaker 8: of information to a younger generation. Right, we talk about 1254 01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:22,960 Speaker 8: the population being so young in Africa, but do they 1255 01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 8: know those traditions of tapping in with the elders, right, 1256 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,280 Speaker 8: Because there's a certain level of knowledge that they can 1257 01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 8: pass down right, and you add that knowledge to the creativity, innovation, 1258 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 8: and the energy that the youth have and that becomes 1259 01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 8: an unsolveable force. 1260 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 5: But we got to realize it though. 1261 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:44,480 Speaker 3: But I think that was done intentionally because it's African 1262 01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 3: tradition where elders are respected, and it's African tradition. Like 1263 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:52,560 Speaker 3: I went to the Louver in Paris, which is like 1264 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 3: the most well respected museum of all time, and it 1265 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 3: was interesting to me because I was looking at the Egyptian. 1266 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 3: You can spend a whole day in the Egyptian. It's 1267 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,400 Speaker 3: crazy how much artifacts they actually stole from Africa. 1268 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 9: But that's a different story. 1269 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 3: The thing that I noticed from African art and African 1270 01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 3: artifacts as opposed to the European art and the European 1271 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 3: artifacts is that most of the African arts had men 1272 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,320 Speaker 3: and women together. The Europeans was just like just men, 1273 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, or a woman. So it's 1274 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 3: like the family structure that's always been part of African 1275 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 3: tradition and elders. So it's like even the Willie Lynch, 1276 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 3: like this is a manuscript of how to make a slave. 1277 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:36,120 Speaker 3: One of the things is play old versus young, play 1278 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 3: men versus women. 1279 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 9: We see the same thing happening. We see like even 1280 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 9: now to this day. 1281 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 3: You see social media everybody debating about relationships and should 1282 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:47,919 Speaker 3: you pay for a date? It's just men and women 1283 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 3: going back and forth. And then it's like the number 1284 01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:53,480 Speaker 3: one thing that hip hop has done over the last. 1285 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 9: Decade is yo, you old, rapper? Like you old? 1286 01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 4: I hate when people do that. It's well, everything we 1287 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:04,200 Speaker 4: talk about is pros and cons right, and it's ways 1288 01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:07,640 Speaker 4: that we fix that because I hate when people say 1289 01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 4: the old rapper, or you washed up, or is this 1290 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 4: and that right? Because what we're really doing is we 1291 01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 4: tearing down our elders. 1292 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:15,919 Speaker 5: Right. 1293 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 4: That can help open up more doors and more lanes 1294 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 4: for us to have more platforms to create more revenue. 1295 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 4: The problem with that is a lot of our elders 1296 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,800 Speaker 4: be still trying to rap like us. It's like nigga 1297 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 4: rap like the adult you is. Some of these rappers 1298 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 4: still be forty seven talking about they got bitches in 1299 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 4: the club and still driving Bentley's Nigga. You married with 1300 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:39,560 Speaker 4: three kids and got businesses. 1301 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 8: But there's part that goes with that, right, and you 1302 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:46,560 Speaker 8: come from this this generation was like, we never saw 1303 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 8: our artists grow old. 1304 01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,600 Speaker 4: We never we never got I was about to get 1305 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 4: into that hip hop is relatively fifty year of it, right, 1306 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:59,880 Speaker 4: So at anything with age, you get wiser. So as 1307 01:06:59,880 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 4: we he continue to grow as a culture, I think 1308 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 4: the labels as the old rapper or washed up or 1309 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 4: all those things will continue to go away because the 1310 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 4: dude who's twenty five now is gonna be thirty in 1311 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 4: five years and his life is going to be different. 1312 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 4: So he'll understand the person he was dishing five years 1313 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:21,439 Speaker 4: ago because he'll be in that business playing that role 1314 01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:23,240 Speaker 4: at that person he was dis and just left. 1315 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,200 Speaker 3: And you can have mental Like Kara said something that 1316 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 3: I was extremely insightful. He was like, all people have 1317 01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:29,480 Speaker 3: wisdom that young. 1318 01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 4: People don't have one thousand percent. 1319 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:35,320 Speaker 3: Young people have energy and information that older people don't have. 1320 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 9: They need each other. 1321 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:42,880 Speaker 3: The information and the youthfulness is not the most beneficial 1322 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 3: if you don't have wisdom, but the wisdom is not 1323 01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 3: even really that beneficial if you don't have new ideas. 1324 01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:51,000 Speaker 3: So it's like both have to respect each other, like 1325 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 3: old people have to respect young people and young people 1326 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:55,439 Speaker 3: have to respect old people. And that's how you really 1327 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:57,240 Speaker 3: and like you said, now with hip hop you have 1328 01:07:57,400 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 3: mentors like you have Buster Robs, you have jay Z 1329 01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:01,920 Speaker 3: have but not it's like we didn't have they that 1330 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:07,360 Speaker 3: wasn't there before. Right now elder statesmen who have been respected. 1331 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,280 Speaker 3: Who's not like you know homeless, Like these are people 1332 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 3: that got money that you know, people respect. That's our 1333 01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,400 Speaker 3: culture still respects, right, like we should watch look like 1334 01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 3: that's still something that's But now it's like as a 1335 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 3: young rapper, I can sit down with X, Y and Z, 1336 01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 3: get information, give game, and now I'll be better suited 1337 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:27,600 Speaker 3: as opposed to just trying to wing it. 1338 01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:29,960 Speaker 8: But this is new, like even this is this is new, right, 1339 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,599 Speaker 8: Like I grew up listening to the Big Daddy can 1340 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 8: carry us one. After a while, they couldn't even do 1341 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 8: a show because nobody was interested. Like now like they're 1342 01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 8: still doing they're on tour now. It's the only genre 1343 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 8: you think about it inside of music where it's like 1344 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,720 Speaker 8: our artists couldn't get on right because even like think 1345 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,639 Speaker 8: about Jay, right, Jay's fifty three years old, that love 1346 01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:50,280 Speaker 8: was fifty five. 1347 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:52,919 Speaker 5: They looked at differently. 1348 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:55,479 Speaker 8: Right, they're not too far apart, but they ll never 1349 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:57,680 Speaker 8: there was never a space where it was like, yo, 1350 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 8: this could be the Rollerstones or you guys can even 1351 01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:02,200 Speaker 8: in R and B we see it like now where 1352 01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:03,519 Speaker 8: Anita Baker, She's still torn. 1353 01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:05,640 Speaker 5: So like this is a brand. 1354 01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 8: New genre of letting our artists age, letting them let 1355 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 8: the mature, letting them go through life experience and explaining 1356 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 8: what that is. I think, like you said, the issue 1357 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 8: is that at forty six, like I'm in I'm forty one, 1358 01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 8: Like I want to hear about what life is at 1359 01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 8: this point because at this and Noah said it right, 1360 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:23,639 Speaker 8: I've been I've been wealthy a lot longer than I've 1361 01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 8: been broke, which is true. I watched you at twenty 1362 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,360 Speaker 8: when when you drop thematic, you're about to be fifty 1363 01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,120 Speaker 8: fifty now like it's thirty years a well. 1364 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,360 Speaker 5: It's talking about and now it's changed. It's changed exactly. 1365 01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:36,280 Speaker 4: So it's like we're watching Nas, We're watching Jay, We're 1366 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 4: watching certain people do it. Like I'm saying, I think 1367 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:42,599 Speaker 4: the problem is because hip hop is rooted in youthful culture. 1368 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,600 Speaker 4: I feel like a lot of elder statesmen feel like 1369 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 4: they have to stay young and that's not relatively the 1370 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,679 Speaker 4: case anymore. We need y'all to grow up, to set 1371 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:54,360 Speaker 4: an example, to give us the wisdom on what not 1372 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,559 Speaker 4: to do on hotder, Like we don't want to go 1373 01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 4: broke when we get youall age right rap about how 1374 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 4: we don't do that exactly, y'all don't tell us that. 1375 01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:06,960 Speaker 4: Y'all tell us keep going, so you keep keep your 1376 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 4: foot on their neck, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, 1377 01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:12,280 Speaker 4: and then you d M and my producer trying to 1378 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 4: get a beat and all it's like that sounds you 1379 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 4: feel me? No, Like, don't do that. Continue to be 1380 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 4: who you were, but just innovate your thing. 1381 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:22,080 Speaker 8: So when you're creating, because I think you're in the 1382 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 8: part and Cold had it. I think he said the 1383 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 8: best when he made the song Middle Child. 1384 01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:28,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, like he really is in the general. 1385 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:29,719 Speaker 4: You know what's crazy? 1386 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 5: What's that process? Like? 1387 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:33,120 Speaker 4: It was kindmatic Cold for making that song. 1388 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:34,000 Speaker 9: You wanted to do it. 1389 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 4: I want to make that, bro, because that's really who 1390 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:41,240 Speaker 4: I am. Bro. He is too, he is too. But 1391 01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 4: when I heard it, I said, it's like it's it's 1392 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 4: like him. He he just thinks ship. I think like 1393 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:53,040 Speaker 4: a lot of should I feel and think like I'll 1394 01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:54,640 Speaker 4: be like I'm gonna do this and then here just 1395 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 4: this motherfucker. I love Cold though shout out the cold. 1396 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,519 Speaker 8: What you're saying when you're trying to create as a 1397 01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:06,680 Speaker 8: middle child and knowing that the dynamics, like, how does 1398 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:07,679 Speaker 8: that affect your process? 1399 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:15,240 Speaker 4: So what's crazy is Africa changed it before Africa was 1400 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 4: hit chasing. So that's why you will see certain elements 1401 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 4: of what people love for me not match the music 1402 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 4: for the longest. Like I just kind of figured that 1403 01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:36,640 Speaker 4: out where results take time. So like Sacrifices, that's a 1404 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 4: simber record people love that never end up broke overnight. 1405 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 5: On God. 1406 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 4: Lessons pop out things like that, right, But when you're 1407 01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,760 Speaker 4: in the business, you would attempt new things, you know 1408 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 4: what I mean. Coca Cola gonna try to sell you 1409 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 4: some cherry coke now really eat buy it or not? 1410 01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:00,240 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, It's up to you.

Those are good records to me, 1412 01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 4: but to the audience who's here from me right now, 1413 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,879 Speaker 4: they don't necessarily want to hear that. But I've chased 1414 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 4: other audience that I feel may be a broader streaming 1415 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 4: audience or a radio audience, and those different things so 1416 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,720 Speaker 4: I feel like that's confused my process until I went 1417 01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:23,080 Speaker 4: to Africa and I really just sat with myself, like, 1418 01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:27,120 Speaker 4: you know what, it's an honor in life for people 1419 01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:31,960 Speaker 4: to even want something from you, you know what I'm saying, 1420 01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,960 Speaker 4: Like just to even like, no, people wake up and 1421 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 4: want to hear me rap? Why would I not give 1422 01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 4: them that every day? Why would I not just rap 1423 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,800 Speaker 4: for what people want to hear me do? So my 1424 01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:48,559 Speaker 4: latest music that I'm getting ready to put out, my 1425 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:52,599 Speaker 4: new project is called Don't Call Me Now coming soon, 1426 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 4: but it's rap based. It's what you see on Instagram 1427 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,599 Speaker 4: and what you see in the radio freestyles in song 1428 01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 4: for man, you know, and it's taking me time to 1429 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:06,080 Speaker 4: figure out how to do that, like the Ja Morant thing, 1430 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,320 Speaker 4: that's the freestyle in a song for Matt. But it's 1431 01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,599 Speaker 4: it takes time, you know what I mean. I don't 1432 01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 4: have I didn't come up like how some of these 1433 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:20,440 Speaker 4: rappers came up with a producer and a song choreographer 1434 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 4: and people to structure they records.

Yeah, 1442 01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:44,479 Speaker 3: very unfortunate situation, but you took a different approach. I 1443 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:48,920 Speaker 3: feel like you wasn't extremely. 1444 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:53,040 Speaker 9: Hard on him.

So anything in our culture that goes 1451 01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 4: on that needs to be addressed, I'm the person to 1452 01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:19,320 Speaker 4: say something. That's who I am. That's my identity in 1453 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:22,400 Speaker 4: the game. So the first time Joall did it, it 1454 01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:25,479 Speaker 4: was like I was on tour.

And 1481 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 4: I'm not saying we shouldn't, because that's certain people's lives 1482 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,080 Speaker 4: and their stories and what they've seen and what they've 1483 01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:58,280 Speaker 4: been through.

That 1631 01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 4: was literally my definition of success for twenty twenty two. 1632 01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 4: Bright ended up on Jimmy Kimmel the breakfast club funk 1633 01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 4: Master Flex.

So for me, it's just like achieving 1636 01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:55,240 Speaker 4: a goal, like right now, like I want to make 1637 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 4: five million. 1638 01:23:56,600 --> 01:24:01,520 Speaker 9: Dollars, Like that's my goal by any means necessary. 1639 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:04,040 Speaker 4: That's my year. Like this year, I wanted to just 1640 01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:08,960 Speaker 4: like have five million dollars tucked like, all right, that's 1641 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:12,599 Speaker 4: over there, Like that's my new goal.

So it changes, 1644 01:24:18,880 --> 01:24:21,920 Speaker 4: it changes every day, but it's like that's my new goal. 1645 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:25,720 Speaker 4: Like that's what's gonna make me feel successful. Is the 1646 01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:28,519 Speaker 4: day that I know I got five million tucked right now? 1647 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:34,519 Speaker 3: So you got the NBA Playoffs, Yeah, getting your jersey 1648 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:35,880 Speaker 3: from Kevin Durant. 1649 01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:39,879 Speaker 9: Yeah, but it was a partnership with the NBA ESPN. 1650 01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 4: ESPN was deal with that, so basically we were able 1651 01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:49,559 Speaker 4: to make the music for the commercials. So something I've 1652 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 4: realized is my music does better on other platforms and 1653 01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 4: on streaming suits because the people who listen to my music, 1654 01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 4: what I've realized is they have a tough time navigating 1655 01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:04,640 Speaker 4: through the internet. So I don't have a lot of 1656 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:09,160 Speaker 4: like young kids that listen to me. They will in 1657 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,680 Speaker 4: the next two to three years as they grow up, 1658 01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 4: you know, and experienced life more, but it's hard for 1659 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:17,600 Speaker 4: them to navigate through the internet. For who listens to 1660 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:21,080 Speaker 4: me currently, So I found ways to find platforms that 1661 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:24,919 Speaker 4: they like to live on, like the NBA or the NFL, 1662 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:29,720 Speaker 4: or video games, you leisure, video games, Joe Budden's podcasts, 1663 01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:33,720 Speaker 4: different platforms that I know my demographic pays attention to 1664 01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:37,240 Speaker 4: because they're a very inquisitive demographic. So I have to 1665 01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 4: go to those platforms. And the NBA was one of them. 1666 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 4: So they noticed that I just be at a lot 1667 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:48,320 Speaker 4: of games. I'm just a big Hoop fan because I 1668 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,920 Speaker 4: played Hoop. I feel like a lot of Hoopers relate 1669 01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:53,280 Speaker 4: to my music because I tell a lot of stories 1670 01:25:53,320 --> 01:25:56,519 Speaker 4: that Hoopers go through. So I've you know, cool with 1671 01:25:56,640 --> 01:26:00,280 Speaker 4: Draymond Green, cool with Kevin Durant, cool Lebron James. And 1672 01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 4: they could see that. So I was making music for 1673 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:08,439 Speaker 4: Madden last year in two K and when I did 1674 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:12,040 Speaker 4: the Warriors halftime show in December for the Celtics, they 1675 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:14,679 Speaker 4: was like, Yo, we want to kind of figure something 1676 01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:18,639 Speaker 4: out for ESPN, like a song or something for the playoffs. 1677 01:26:19,320 --> 01:26:20,760 Speaker 4: And it was like, let's do it.

What's your thoughts on this? 1889 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:26,160 Speaker 5: I like it. 1890 01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:30,879 Speaker 4: Like I said earlier, Bro, I'm a fan of innovation, 1891 01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:35,880 Speaker 4: so I understand that it's you know, hasn't been regulated yet, 1892 01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 4: even though I'm reading things about it becoming that. I 1893 01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,280 Speaker 4: see Universal just did a deal with an AI company. 1894 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:44,679 Speaker 4: I think Warner is getting ready to do some things 1895 01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:47,479 Speaker 4: with an AI company, and pretty sure Sony is too. 1896 01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:53,240 Speaker 4: But I think it's great. I think people are scared 1897 01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:56,760 Speaker 4: of it because I think it replaces us in a 1898 01:36:56,840 --> 01:36:59,760 Speaker 4: lot of ways. But at the same time, it helps 1899 01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:01,800 Speaker 4: us in a lot of ways. And it's nothing like 1900 01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:05,080 Speaker 4: one thing about humans, bro, It's nothing like human and 1901 01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:08,840 Speaker 4: human interaction, you know what I mean. So no matter 1902 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:12,760 Speaker 4: how much the AI can duplicate our emotions and all 1903 01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:16,400 Speaker 4: these different things, it ain't lived our life and they 1904 01:37:16,439 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 4: can't tell our story like we can, you know what 1905 01:37:19,160 --> 01:37:21,599 Speaker 4: I mean. So it might be able to say things 1906 01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 4: we've been a part of a lot faster, a lot 1907 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:27,200 Speaker 4: more efficient. But let's use it as a tool. Let's 1908 01:37:27,280 --> 01:37:29,280 Speaker 4: use it as a tool to make us more faster 1909 01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:32,160 Speaker 4: and efficient rather than looking at it, looking at it 1910 01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:35,240 Speaker 4: as something that's gonna take our jobs or whatever it 1911 01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:37,920 Speaker 4: may be.
