You know 0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:01.240 what I'm saying, It's something for everybody. 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:06.440 How old were you when you discovered this beautiful voice 0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:06.880 of yours? 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:07.080 Man? 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:08.880 Like, when you really knew you had you had like 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:12.280 a unique tone and voice that was very special. 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.600 I was like I was singing when I was a 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:20.679 young and early at church, but like I ain't know, 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:25.640 like I had a unique voice to probably like high school, Okay, 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:29.480 my voice is getting deeper. Shit, So yeah, once you 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.960 start growing up your voice, yeah, and it was like 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:34.560 niggas be like then you got like a deeper voice. 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:36.480 It was like different, you know what I'm saying. Like 0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:38.920 that's when I found out I had a unique voice. 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.840 And then starting to make music every day while I 0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.119 was in high school, That's when I felt my sound. 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.360 That's how I realized how to use my voice in 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:49.440 a different way and not sound like everybody else. 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.600 For you, like, uh, you've done a great job and 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.000 pretty cool. Like I feel like a lot of artists 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.200 kind of start off as like writers and they let 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:02.000 that rock for like some years and then they go 0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:04.720 the artist route. I feel like you've done that in 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.160 a quicker, quicker way, right, Because was it Chris Brown 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:10.080 that initially kind of gave you a shot on was 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:11.200 it Breezy Breezy? 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.480 I wrote Will's fall Off News right here. That was 0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:18.280 like the first I've been writing for like a year 0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:21.560 or two. That was like the first big placement I 0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:22.400 got Chris Brown. 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:27.440 Wow, that's a fucking that's Chris Breezy. 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:31.560 And like that was June last year, right a month 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:35.079 after that guy did came out. So like before niggas 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.880 knew out, like I was a known writer. I feel 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:40.080 like I was seeing your name though you was seeing 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:41.919 my name. I was seeing your name. I was putting 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.080 some work in, but it was like it wasn't like, 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:48.000 oh he he a go to writer, Like this was up. 0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:50.079 On your ship before God did. Like I remember, he 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.080 was really into your ship. Like, yo, that Friday Due 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.320 is hard because he's an engineer and a singer. Yeah, 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.320 because he's probably because he an engineer. Niggas in the 0:02:57.320 --> 0:03:00.280 industry knew me, but the world didn't know like here 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:02.320 a writer, you know what I'm saying. So I got 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:05.120 introduced to the world as an artist. The only people 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:07.000 that really knew me as a writer was you know, 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.560 the engineers, like if you know you know type you know. 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.120 But I ain't never want to be no writer, bro, 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.440 I just I knew that was the way that was 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:15.840 kind of your way to get you in the door. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:16.200 Yeah. 0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:19.240 Like my manager to me, like when I met him, 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:23.320 he like being a songwriter might be an easier way 0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:23.720 to get in. 0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:26.040 I feel like it is the easiest way. 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:27.880 It is the easiest way because because you're. 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.040 Kind of there to help the artist. You're an artist, 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:31.080 you're there to kind. 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.760 Of because look, bro, like when you meet and urs 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:39.839 and executive label niggas, you telling them your artists don't 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:41.400 really mean ship to them unless you got some. 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:42.840 Motion, because they hear it. 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:44.880 They hear it every day, especially if they go on 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:48.000 your Instagram. You know you don't got no motion. They 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:51.040 don't give a fun going to check Spotify. Yeah, they're 0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:54.560 gonna check everything, and they really don't give a fuck. 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.120 Even if you're nice and ship, it doesn't matter. It 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:57.600 don't matter. 0:03:58.480 --> 0:03:59.600 Show me, show me the. 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.840 Audience, Show me the audience. So if you go up 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:04.720 to the niggas and be like, bro, I could get 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:08.440 artists ten hooks. That's what they want to hear, bro Like, y' 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.760 y'all need hooks, y'all need beats. I could do your 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:12.840 whole album. Yeah, you go up to an end or 0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:17.680 like that, I promise you the studio tonight. Yeah, I'm 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.400 playing some ship. So that's really the easiest way. I 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:27.360 encourage every artist at if you're good, start there. Yeah, 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:29.960 still do your artist, ship, don't lose yourself, but like 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:31.239 try to get in by writing. 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.480 I mean so many grades have done that, like shout 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:37.640 to Eric, shout to Neo, I mean ship, Yeah, on 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.640 and on and on, tons of folks like that. So 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:45.800 obviously Chris Brown album comes out and then out of 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:48.520 nowhere this God Did record, which is one of the 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.760 We talked about this a bit on at the BT 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:54.159 radio room, but like, obviously, man, this God Did Ship 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.560 is like one of the craziest jay Z verses we've 0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:03.280 ever gotten. I mean from performing he Hunt the BET Awards, uh, 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:07.880 I mean just just the Grammy Ship he said, get 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:13.320 it right. It was the gram such an insane moment 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:15.760 in hip hop. I mean, got calid. I feel like 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:19.520 that record really kind of really set call it up 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.640 to you know, be looked at it in a different 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:24.920 way in terms of like putting records together. But give 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:28.960 me the backstory of like, I guess the whole process 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.080 of that song, because we've seen the video of you 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:35.360 singing it was that in your bedroom? And that was that? 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:39.520 Did you did you record that prior? Like like while 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:43.719 you're actually cutting that hook? I made it. That's just crazy. 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.720 I knew it was going to be special. I will 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.479 tell you a story like I told you I was 0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:50.960 writing for a little bit. So I was in this 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:54.880 pub deal in the A and R left and it 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.000 was on some ship like I ain't have nobody else, 0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:00.080 like I'm broken ship, I ain't had no connection. And 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:02.919 then too the building besides that A and R. So 0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:05.400 me and my team was looking for like a buyout. 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:09.039 Somebody else would buy out my manager, Edgar, buy me 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.600 out my pub deal. So my manager, Edgar, he connected 0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:16.600 the Eddie Mary J. Blise manager he worked at another 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.599 pub company, Prescription.

So we fresh into 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:37.680 this pub deal. Chris Brown come out, and then I'm 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.599 watching cal It on Instagram say God did every day 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:42.960 like every time I wake up.

And like, I guess everyone kind of 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:53.320 you said you had a pub deal that you had 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:55.520 to get bought out of, right, So what was like 0:11:55.679 --> 0:12:00.160 your first initial like real step into being in the 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:02.120 quote unquote music industry? Like how did you get that 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:04.319 initial pub deal? Like before we really knew who you were, 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:05.040 you know what I'm saying? 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:13.800 Uh shit around? Like he was like twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:18.440 that's when I met my manager. Remember he was like, 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:21.480 bro start writing, Yes, So when I met him, I 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:22.600 was like making like ten. 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.520 Hooks a week, bro, Like were you still in Philly. Yeah, 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:27.160 I was in the same room at the crib. At 0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:30.560 the crib, you're like cutting the hooks, sending him to him, 0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:32.040 and then he's doing his. 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.760 Job getting he's sending it out. So it's like I 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.480 was made like ten ten songs a week. Yeah. At 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.640 that time, I was close to my man produced, my producer, 0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:44.800 the Newso, and I started making a lot of beats 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:46.559 on his a lot of hooks on a lot of 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:49.240 hooks on his beat, and he was about to get signed. 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.040 But the person he was about to sign to, they're like, 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.680 who that on the hooks? Like, you know what I'm saying. 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:58.120 He hard. So that's how like, that's how that happened 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.680 with my first pub deal tape. Shit. 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.200 And now when they ask who's that on the hook? 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:04.960 They keep you on the hook. Yeah, they keep they 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:08.480 keep me.

Like at the same time, I'm giving 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:47.520 my own my own, my own music. Yeah, you know 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.839 what I'm saying.
