Speaker 1: You definitely got a good signature sound.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's definitely man. You in your own lang,
Speaker 1: which I think is great for the culture because you know,
Speaker 1: when when you pop out, it's important for people to be.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, that's Friday.
Speaker 1: I know that's Friday because it sounds like you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, did you feel like a lot of times that
Speaker 5: people recognize your voice more than like actually recognizing you,
Speaker 5: like as a person.
Speaker 3: You too, probably like last year, ain't gonna lie no more.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you start popping out now.
Speaker 5: I feel like when you first when you first blew up,
Speaker 5: like people never really saw you like you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like, well, it was definitely like that
Speaker 4: last year because it was like it was like God
Speaker 4: did and the Little Baby Record.
Speaker 3: Then it just start building up.
Speaker 1: Like but then but then Little Baby Record come out
Speaker 1: before God did, after God did.
Speaker 4: Okay, but that's just them hearing them ship on the radio.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: But now I'm doing it like the video baby popping
Speaker 4: out the concerts he brings your face. It was like
Speaker 4: popping out State Farm Arena, like like the past year.
Speaker 4: I just been running around everywhere, was like, now.
Speaker 1: How does that make you feel?
Speaker 3: Cool? I love it? I love it?
Speaker 1: Okay, Now I know that makes the price go up too.
Speaker 3: It's a blessing, bro.
Speaker 1: How does an artist like you determine what determines making
Speaker 1: the price go up?
Speaker 2: That's a good question.
Speaker 4: Really, you really got to know what the price is,
Speaker 4: like like at first, like you chesting the order, like
Speaker 4: what would they give me?
Speaker 3: Then you ship it from there and then you be like, well,
Speaker 3: other niggas, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1: Really what it is, like what's going on in the market.
Speaker 4: Because these niggas already you know what I'm saying before
Speaker 4: they even come to you. They already know what's going on,
Speaker 4: like like my agents and all that, with your streaming,
Speaker 4: your markets and all that. That's and then I would
Speaker 4: say the price went up when I went on tour.
Speaker 4: I ain't gonna lie, And you went on tour with
Speaker 4: by myself the first John that was probably it months ago.
Speaker 4: I want your headline, your London aver The price went
Speaker 4: up for that?
Speaker 1: Now, how important is the DJ? I always wanted to
Speaker 1: ask an artist, especially a newer artist like you, how
Speaker 1: important is the DJ and like to your music, playing
Speaker 1: your music, getting support from DJs.
Speaker 3: DJ, they running the whole joint. Bro, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying.
Speaker 4: They run the whole movement, especially even on stage, my DJ,
Speaker 4: Bud you turning it up.
Speaker 3: Bro.
Speaker 1: I always think that an artist with a good relationship
Speaker 1: their DJ has better shows than you can tell what
Speaker 1: an artist and their DJ they They can have a show,
Speaker 1: but it looks like the DJ is just pushing play
Speaker 1: and they not rehearsing. They're not rehearsing together, really be rehearsing.
Speaker 4: Okay, all the songs and all that, like word for word,
Speaker 4: all the unreleased music.
Speaker 1: So it's like, how did y'all link up?
Speaker 3: Philly?
Speaker 1: He that guy.
Speaker 3: Guy?
Speaker 4: Like like when I was coming up, bro, Oh so
Speaker 4: you already knew who he was on some tip Like yo, Bro,
Speaker 4: I'm telling my man your tell book play my ship
Speaker 4: on the radio. I was a nobody, but now that's
Speaker 4: probably the only name I knew.
Speaker 3: I was like when gell bro for sure?
Speaker 1: So so what is what keeps you motivating now? Because
Speaker 1: I know you're getting some success, Like what what keeps
Speaker 1: you motivated? Because I know, I know sometimes when you
Speaker 1: start achieving things, you be like, damn, I got that,
Speaker 1: Now what's next for you?
Speaker 4: There's a lot more like like I achieved a lot,
Speaker 4: but it's like it's so many places I ain't touch yet.
Speaker 4: That's that's that that's what keep me motivated, or like
Speaker 4: it's the respect some type of like respect I ain't
Speaker 4: get yet that I feel like I deserve what you mean.
Speaker 1: By respect from more fans or amongst your peers.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even say.
Speaker 1: It's like clean us up, real good.
Speaker 3: My fans already know who I am with my family.
Speaker 4: That's my fans. You know what I'm saying. They're gonna
Speaker 4: tell me every day we locked in. But it's like
Speaker 4: it's certain markets.
Speaker 2: Were you like, man, I got I gotta get hot
Speaker 2: and still hit over there.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, it's certain places. I was like, damn,
Speaker 3: they don't know me. We're here. Oh we still got
Speaker 3: more work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what you said.
Speaker 5: Because it's like certain artists they could be lit somewhere
Speaker 5: like live everywhere else and then you be like, man,
Speaker 5: I need to get this market because you like I
Speaker 5: always tell people, like one thing I like about like
Speaker 5: artists like Boosy is like Boosy hit all the markets.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: He be hitting the markets that you would think that
Speaker 5: like people ain't even going to the markets. So then
Speaker 5: I feel like that's when artists had like a longevity
Speaker 5: of success as far as getting booking, Like even if
Speaker 5: you ain't just the hottest artists out, like you gonna
Speaker 5: eat forever because you're supporting those markets that you know,
Speaker 5: people ain't really tapping into.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm explaining like that, like Boosy like me my market, Right,
Speaker 4: I got every trenching in the US. Okay, every time
Speaker 4: I go to where my folks is, I'm cool. Right,
Speaker 4: I went on tour a boogie Europe and Europe like,
Speaker 4: oh shit, it's a whole other way.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that international.
Speaker 4: All them eighteen year old eighteen year old white kids,
Speaker 4: them niggas was not singing word for world, you know
Speaker 4: what I'm saying. So that's that was an example like,
Speaker 4: oh I got far the way to go, Like it's
Speaker 4: more hits. I gotta make to cross over to them,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But that's probably good motivation too.
Speaker 2: I didn't think artists pay attention to stuff like that
Speaker 2: you do.
Speaker 4: Especially it's the traveling, okay, and opening up for different
Speaker 4: artists like when.
Speaker 5: You when you when you leave the US, that's when
Speaker 5: it's like, okay, let me see how lit I really am.
Speaker 3: Like okay, but the thing is I'm lit over there.
