5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: about the trains in New York City. I was talking

6
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: about an incident where I took the train and this

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: guy sat next to me and talked to me the

8
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: whole ride. And you had a similar situation on the plane. Yes,

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: I did.

10
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 2: It was this guy.

11
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,080
Speaker 3: I don't know who he was. But honestly, I had

12
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 3: two situations. One was good, one was kind of like annoying.

13
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: But this one, the guy like.

14
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 3: He just kept asking me a bunch of questions and

15
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 3: I don't know what I was thinking. I just was

16
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 3: talking to him, and then like he ended up asking

17
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 3: me who I.

18
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: Was, and I was like, fuck, you told the truth.

19
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: I told the truth.

20
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

21
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 2: That was the one time I was like, bitch, it's okay.

22
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: To wt, like you gotta say something else, like you know,

23
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: I'm just out here trying to make it.

24
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then he was like trying to get my number.

25
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 3: I was like, no, bro, this is way uncomfortable. And

26
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: I got to sit here for hours and.

27
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: Then it's awkward. You got to pretend to fall asleep

28
00:00:58,920 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: or something.

29
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I did have one situation where I met

30
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: this old lady.

31
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: She was like in her like seventies or eighties, coolest.

32
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: Fun sitting at you.

33
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 3: We had a blast talking, Like she told me she

34
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,639
Speaker 3: was gonna put me on her wheel.

35
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: What I don't know what you said to her.

36
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 2: No, we became best friends though, Like we was talking

37
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 2: about shells.

38
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: Like yeah, cool, like she's gonna put you in your will.

39
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: I was on a flight one time and this guy

40
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: sitting next to me was a missionary and so he

41
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: goes and like you know, I guess, tries to recruit

42
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: people for religion. Then he prayed for me on the

43
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: plane and I had to like hold his hand and

44
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: look down and pray. Oh my gosh, what can you do?

45
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't just be like all right, you don't

46
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 3: want to make them feel bad, but like.

47
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: I had to hold this man's a little invasive, and

48
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: I know everybody that was sitting like in front of

49
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,160

60
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,200

Speaker 1: And so you mean just as fire as from the beginning,

62
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: because you've been knowing this is what you want to

63
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: do since she was a little girl.

64
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: Yes, ever since I was like ten eleven. That was

65
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 3: like I made up in my mind, like this is

66
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 3: what I want to do.

67
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, and I know you even had like a

68
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: girl group at school. Yeah, so were you guys rapping

69
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: or singing?

70
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: We was rapping.

71
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: We had like one singer, like it was two rappers,

72
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: me and her, and then we would like recruit other girls,

73
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,239
Speaker 3: but like nobody really could, like I don't know, like

74
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 3: they couldn't really keep up because we was really hungry.

75
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: But I feel like I was like the most hungriest.

76
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: Are there videos of like performances floating around?

77
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm not gonna lie.

78
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 3: We got one video on YouTube where we performed in

79
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: front of our high school and like they booed us.

80
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 2: What yeah, your friends, no the school.

81
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: Did you know what I'm saying? But those your friends,

82
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: it's your high school.

83
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was my high school.

84
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: But we was freshman's though, and they were like seniors

85
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 3: and juniors.

86
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: Oh that's hate.

87
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, they was hating real bad.

88
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: But but now objectively looking back, were y'all good?

89
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 3: Or oh me and my friend yeah, oh no, it's

90
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: no beef, Like I still wish her the best.

91
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: No, I mean, were you guys like good or do

92
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: you think that?

93
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 3: Like?

94
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: Okay, I can see why they bowed us.

95
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 2: Oh I could see.

96
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 3: I mean we was we was pretty like new and

97
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 3: then like I don't even think they was listening to

98
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: us because we was a cappella freestyling and then they

99
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 3: didn't even like.

100
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: Didn't get give us a chance. They were like boo.

101
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, this is really embarrassing.

102
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean we got a lot of followers

103
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: that day on instagrams.

104
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 1: Okay. See, so no matter what, you always could find

105
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: something positive to come out of it. And I know

106
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: those same people like, oh, they probably like I saw

107
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: her perform when she was younger. I was up on

108
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: her first even though they was up there like.

109
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: Boom, it was.

110
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 3: It's cool though, Like I feel like it's it's character development,

111
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: Like I needed to go through that, I guess, to

112
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 3: see what it's like to be talked about.

113
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 2: And you know, I feel like it was just like

114
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: practice to be like where I'm at right now.

115
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Right and then look. And also I feel like from

116
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: your music you are very like you might hurt somebody feelings,

117
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: whether it's the women at home it might be against

118
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 1: you or the guys. Is that intimidating for a man

119
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: to come up to Flow Milly and having heard some

120
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: of your songs and then feel like I don't even

121
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: know how to approach it because she's gonna really play me.

122
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have this whole like thing where they feel

123
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: like like, yeah, my music is a part of me.

124
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 3: I don't feel like it's always me all the time,

125
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 3: because I might have just been going through something and

126
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: wanted to make a song about it.

127
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: So that's really the only thing about it.

128
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 3: Like, I feel like it's kind of hard to really

129
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 3: know somebody based off of like only certain things they

130
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 3: package up and send out to the world to see.

131
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 3: So I feel like, you know, a lot of men

132
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 3: do like I think I'm intimidating, and I guess it's

133
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 3: a good and bad thing.

134
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: Yeah it look only the super confident can approach you. Yeah,

135
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, And let's talk about the trilogy that you

136
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: have right now? Yeah, okay, So first, why is you here?

137
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: Yes?

138
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: Did you know when you did that mixtape that it

139
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: was gonna be Like was the plan always like I'm

00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 3: No, it just like start, so who e is you here?

142
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 3: I had already like had that name before I even

143
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 3: made the mixtape. I was like, I want my project

144
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 3: to be called this because I knew that it would

145
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 3: catch people's attention, like because it's like, damn.

146
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: What are you calling the whole Like, so I just

147
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: kind of knew that.

148
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: And then it's just as I went on, I thought

149
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 3: about like making it a sequel, and then it just

150
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 3: kind of came up as I made everything.

151
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 1: Because then it was you still hear and then the

152
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: next album coming out is fine he stay yes fire Host.

153
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: It makes me feel like this album is gonna be

154
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: a little softer sided you or something.

155
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 3: Oh finally say that but I think it's just like

156
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 3: an era of me not necessarily ending, but it's like

157
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 3: just showing them like okay, like this was just you know,

158
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 3: everything is not going to be whole eyes you here.

159
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 3: It's just like a part of flow, Milly, I would say,

160
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 3: But yeah.

170
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 3: that's how a God's going to match that. So it's

171
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 3: like I always try to do what other women are

172
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 3: not doing, which is like having standards, like having a

173
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 3: certain time that I don't want to like talk to you.

174
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: I mean I might make an exception.

175
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 3: I might make an exception for my favorite nigga, but

176
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 3: like I don't.

179
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,640

180
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 2: You make me say it.

181
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:11,960

Speaker 1: Why is that?

188
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: Because like those are booty call hours, and I feel

189
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 3: like if you haven't deserved, like no, you don't want

190
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,960

Speaker 2: That I know.

195
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: That's the only thing that I do, Like it's not

196
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 3: but like I don't know, it's some got to give.

197
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: You know, you got to have some type of like

198
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: discipline with niggas.

199
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: What about a text? Can he text you after and

200
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: just to say good night?

201
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 2: No?

202
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: Or it just was thinking about you when you have

203
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: a moment called no. I mean.

204
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 3: Maybe for my favorite nigga, yeah, but most of the

205
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 3: I don't got time for them for real, for real really,

206
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 3: ever since I started becoming a rapper, it's been hard

207
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 3: to like balance like that aspect of my life. Everything

208
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 3: else is just like good house car everything work good.

209
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 3: But like I guess, because I work so much.

210
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I tell you just got a new

211
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,320

Speaker 1: Okay, that's a good feeling.

214
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels good. I feel like, you know, album

00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 2: coming out is like perfect time to just pop my shit.

216
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: So and so you're from Mobile, Alabama? Yes, and so

217
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: that's like how far is that from Montgomery? You know

218
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: why I'm asking? That's like two hours? Yeah, okay, two

219
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: hours from Montgomery. Have you ever been to that riverfront

220
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: dock where the melee went down where we had to

221
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: first of but I was so proud watching that. What

222
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: did you think when you saw? And have you ever

223
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: been there?

224
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 2: Yes? I have my sister. Isn't Alabama stake in Montgomery?

225
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: Yeah?

226
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 2: My sister went to Alabama State. She just graduated.

227
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 3: So I would always go up there or like, you know,

228
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 3: anytime I'm going home, I would drive through there or whatever.

229
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 3: But I've never been to the riverfront. But I'm not surprised.

230
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 3: I'd be telling people all the time, like Alabama people

231
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 3: is not the people to fuck with. Like I grew

232
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: up around all that shit, so it's normal.

233
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: To me.

234
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: I always tell him, like he'd be sending me stuff

235
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: on first forty eight and shit like that, and I'm like, damn,

236
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 3: like that's normal to me, Like seeing girls fight, like

237
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 3: waking up to fights every day in the hood, like.

238
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 2: So they don't fucking play like that wasn't surprising to

239
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 2: me at all. Right. What was surprising is how big

240
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 2: it got around the world.

241
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: That would tend Yes, Damn, that was amazing to see.

242
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: And what I love the fact is that it was filmed,

243
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: that it went viral from the beginning it was being

244
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: filmed because it could seem like it just turned into

245
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: a fight. We don't know if you just looked at

246
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: it from the middle, you won't know how it started.

247
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 2: It's so crazy.

248
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: I saw so many different perspectives, Like as the days

249
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: went by, I was like, dang, I even saw the

250
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 3: beginning when it first before he even walked up and

251
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 3: confronted them, Like the other boat that was trying to

252
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 3: like park, they had they had people like singing to

253
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: tell them.

254
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

255
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 3: I was like, that's crazy, Like they really brought that

256
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: on themselves for real.

257
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: So what was life like for you in Mobile, Alabama?

258
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: Because I know you grew up going to church, and

259
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: did you perform in church?

260
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: Yes, all the time.

261
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 3: Like that's how I got into music, like I had to.

262
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 3: I want to say I was forced, but I was

263
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 3: kind of forced to like do solos and be in

264
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 3: the choir. So after school every day, I'm going to

265
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 3: church on the weekends and when my grandparents going to church,

266
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 3: Like I was heavily involved in church. So like being

267
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 3: on stage and singing and being in plays, it was

268
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 3: easy for me to like get used to that. But

269
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 3: growing up in Alabama was very crazy, like you always

270
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 3: saw something. It was always something going on, Like I

271
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 3: don't know, it's not really much positives, but really it's

272
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 3: so it's bad out there. But like I mean, like

273
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: I still appreciate being from there because it like helped

274
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 3: me become strong, I guess, like, but it is very tough.

275
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: Like I know, Young Blew is mobile Alabama.

276
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: City him Riloh and no Cap.

277
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: So do y'all did you like really interact with them

278
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: before all of this or.

279
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 3: I did with Young Blue a little bit and then actually,

280
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 3: well one of my he's not like my blood uncle,

281
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 3: but we call him my uncle, but he, uh, he

282
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: was cool with Blue and he used to I kind

283
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 3: of knew about Blue since I was in middle school

284
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 3: because he had like motion in the city and everything,

285
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 3: and then he blew up later after that. But I

286
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 3: talked to Blue and then pretty much all of them,

287
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: but we don't really like communicate like that.

288
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: All right. That'd be dope though, because it's like a

289
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: movement for the whole city, and I'm sure a lot

290
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: of people are watching that.

291
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really dope.

292
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 3: I try to go back as much as I can,

293
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: Like for Mardi Gras, I'm gonna go back.

294
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: Oh listen, they're about to go crazy. Yeah, and you've

295
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: been having so many positive things happening. What was your

296
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: first big performance?

297
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 3: My first big performance was I feel like it was Lollapalooza. Yeah,

298
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: that was like right out of the pandemic, one of

299
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: my first shows, and it was in Chicago, I think.

300
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 2: But yeah, it was real big.

301
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: Because then you did rolland Loud, you did Coachella.

302
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: Yes, oh Coachella fuck, I should have said that way.

303
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: Well Coachella was after that though. Yeah. Yeah, So I'm

304
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 1: just talking about So how was it like your first

305
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: time doing an event like lo La Palooza is huge?

306
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: So how do you prepare for something like that, and

307
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: how was the audience.

308
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 3: I had no clue what to expect. I thought it

309
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 3: was just a regular show. But like I kind of

310
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: came into the industry and a weird toime because I

311
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 3: like my song, my mixtape blew up or whatever, and

312
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: I wasn't able to perform for like almost a year.

313
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah that's tough.

314
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so when I actually did, I didn't.

315
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: Know on what to expect. But it was really fun.

316
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 3: Like people was in a tree turking like it was crazy.

317
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, it's lip slip.

318
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: And you also have been getting a lot of support

319
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: and also supporting a lot of the women. I saw

320
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: the article in the New York Times where you talked

321
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: about how the women are really killing it right now

322
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: and putting in the work. You know that they need to,

323
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: but it also is a lot more work for women

324
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: just because of the whole preparation. Yes, like even look

325
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,160

00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 2: they got it easy.

328
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 3: All they gotta do is throw on the chain, get

329
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: a little haircut, and so they don't got to do that. Yeah,

333
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,360

363
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: fiftieth anniversary of hip hop, as we all know. And

364
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: so who are some of the people that for the

365
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: fifty anniversary of hip hop that you would shout out,

366
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 1: that you would say the reason why I do what

367
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: I do is because of this person.

368
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it's so many. Like I could really

369
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: name a lot of people. I could start with mc light,

370
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 3: Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, Lil Wayne, icons, icons, and even

371
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 3: though like Beyonce and Rihanna, they're like more R and B,

372
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: just like a lot of people that I was inspired by.

373
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: Those were the people. And the list goes on and

374
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 2: on and on.

375
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: I know you're like, I don't want to forget anybody. Yeah,

376
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: And you know what, it's great for y'all too, Cause

377
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: for me, when everybody came up in this business, Like

378
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: when I was younger, we didn't have access like that.

379
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: The fact that y'all can support each other just by

380
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: liking a video or leaving a comment or sending a

381
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: DM through and being able to connect, that's the real

382
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: positive things. What are some great connections you've made just

383
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: from social media without having to be in person? Cause,

384
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: like you said, it was a unique time when you

385
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: actually started blowing up. It was a pandemic, but it

386
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: was also a great opportunity to be to be able

387
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: to set the stays to connect with people.

388
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have my mixed feelings about that, but I

389
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 3: think it's really cool that we can.

390
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 2: But I mean, being a gen.

391
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: Z person, like I grew up on social media, so

392
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 3: I could see the pros and the cons of it.

393
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, for you, what are some of those pros

394
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 3: and what are some of those cons? So the pros

395
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 3: for me is, like you said, we get to connect

396
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 3: and we can show our love for our peers, and

397
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 3: also the knowledge that sometimes social media brings when you

398
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 3: find the right knowledge. But I feel like the cons

399
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 3: and it's more pros I'm gonna say when I think

400
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 3: about it, But the cons are like just being able

401
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 3: to see negative things about yourself or fans or haters

402
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 3: having access to you, like negative people using it in

403
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 3: a negative way, Right, that's what I would say, I

404
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 3: don't like, but yeah it's hard to Yeah, you can't

405
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: have one with that the other, I guess.

406
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: And then also people trying to start beef, they oh,

407
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: I think she talked about you? Yea next thing, you know,

408
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: you're in a rabbit hole, like is she talking about me?

409
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 3: And it's social media. That's what it does to you.

410
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 3: How you thinking like something that's not really real?

411
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 2: That's another thing.

412
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,120
Speaker 3: And making people feel like what else? Relationships I ain't

413
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 3: gonna get into that, No, go ahead, people say, like

414
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 3: people like for relationships. It makes people think they have

415
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 3: more options than what they really have. Like I don't

416
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 3: think we were supposed to connect with the entire world.

417
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 3: I don't feel like that's normal. But I mean it's here,

418
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 3: so obviously it was meant to happen.

419
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: Right, Sometimes people think there's always something better out there too,

420
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: like I'm with you, but then I'm like looking like,

421
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: what not this? So many aptings at my fingertips and

422
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: so in your household growing up? Because I notice that

423
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: you do pay homage to a lot of people that

424
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: are older than you. Even with the SWV week. You

425
