Speaker 1: mixed and MG compilations, so.

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 5: It's a lot so all of that music and to

17
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 5: have delivered your best body of work. How does that feel?

18
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: I mean, it's up for debate if it's my best,

19
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 4: but I think it is. But a lot of people's

20
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 4: been saying that. A lot of people just like this

21
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 4: Elsi's top three because they don't want to jump the gun.

22
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 4: But it's good because it's like, I know the artist

23
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 4: that I am, I know what I'm capable of, And

24
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 4: in a weird way, this is kind of like my

25
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 4: first album because well my first album DELO because you

26
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 4: remember attention deficit. I was re mark like I was

27
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 4: just kind of following what I'm doing, what I was told.

28
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 4: Then the MMG stuff, I was really on my own,

29
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 4: but it was under it was in a group, so

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 4: it was kind of like, you know what I'm saying.

31
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 4: So this is it feels like my first one. You

32
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. It feels like an introduction to

33
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 4: a lot of people. Like if you listen to Belly,

34
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 4: it feels like, oh like if somebody was like, yo,

35
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 4: where while they're from?

36
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: Or what is he? What he about your belly? And

37
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: you'd be like, oh, you know what I'm saying.

38
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 4: So having a lot of moments where a new listener

39
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 4: could come in and.

40
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 5: I hate to say it, whoever, whoever the woman is

41
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 5: that broke your heart, Thank you God.

42
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: Than make you think that. What makes you think of women?

43
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: Broke mind?

44
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 4: Me? Stuff down the album? But you got you got

45
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 4: you gotta tell me what makes it like?

46
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 6: But for me, it always feels like when you when

47
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 6: you get to a certain point in a relationship, you

48
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 6: feel like you fall into hard you like all back

49
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 6: a little bit even before this album, you know what

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 6: I mean, Like what.

51
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 4: That's a fair assessment. That's like through the music, that's

52
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 4: a fair assessment.

53
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 5: I feel that off the first song Conundrum, and throughout

54
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 5: the whole album, it's like you want to be in

55
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 5: a relationship like your mother is even stressing like your

56
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 5: when you get me.

57
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 4: I think it's just it feels good to be loved,

58
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 4: like you really do, like like when you're really trying

59
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: to like boss up and do your thing like boss up,

60
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 4: it really do feel.

61
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: Good to be loved.

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 4: But then sometimes it's a matter of like like who

63
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 4: who how can you mesh with somebody with this like lifestyle,

64
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 4: but just like oh you got to get up and

65
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 4: go and stuff like that, Like you know what I'm

66
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 4: saying In Conundrum, I mean that ain't nothing, but like

67
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 4: me having a self realization of like damn, like I

68
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 4: really got it takes a lot for me to like

69
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 4: to reheat this hot like you know what I'm saying,

70
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 4: Like like you know what I'm saying, Like I accept

71
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 4: whatever this is with some and some bread quick, But.

72
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: Do you love me? Not for real? Do you love me? Damn?

73
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 4: Well, this is quite a conundrum because I don't like

74
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 4: I don't love you, like you know what I'm saying,

75
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 4: like these these awkward situations, cause it's like I'm not

76
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 4: like I'm not a sloppy dude, like I don't be

77
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: moving you know what I'm saying, Like if I'm messing

78
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 4: with somebody, like it's you know what I'm saying. But

79
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 4: I also can realize like when in the past, like

80
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: five years, like I like one of my exes told

81
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 4: me that I'm just like it's so cold. Is wrong

82
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 4: with like why you so cold? I'm like, I really

83
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 4: come put my finger on that.

84
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: I really don't know.

85
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 4: Like, but again, over time I realized, like yo, when

86
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 4: you and your r it's sometimes hard to see anything

87
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 4: but that you know what I'm saying, and you're gonna lose.

88
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 4: You're gonna lose people in your life because they don't

89
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 4: understand I know, you know, like Bruh TV film all that,

90
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 4: Like it's hard to like when you lock in, you know,

91
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 4: it's hard to like have that you know what I'm saying,

92
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 4: Like even if your partner giving you space or whatever whatever,

93
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 4: Like you know what it's like when you locked in,

94
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 4: you locked into the thing. Like when I'm working on

95
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 4: the film stuff I'm working on, and I'm like really

96
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 4: in that flow state, like which could last for like

97
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 4: three weeks, four weeks, I'm not really, I'm not in that.

98
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

99
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: It can't be in the relationship because you.

100
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: Up here nine times, this is the same sentiment you

101
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 3: have every time talking about the same young lady that

102
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 3: you would not you worked.

103
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 1: It's it's sim with every relationship, and these are the problems.

104
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 7: There a problem and watching Us though it felt like

105
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 7: you found a because she's just as famous that you

106
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 7: could balance it with and you was into it, but then.

107
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 4: You it can happen. But watching Us is his own part,

108
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 4: Like it ain't. It ain't end on a sad note.

109
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 4: We in Vegas, we were in Paris. It ain't in

110
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 4: on a bad note. So I think this is more optimistic,

111
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 4: my my.

112
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: My outlook on it the whole, Like.

113
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 4: There's more optimistic on this project because I'm a little

114
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 4: bit more optimistic and the idea of it.

115
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: Okay, So the.

116
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 6: Name of the album is Everything is a Lot? Does

117
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 6: that describe where you are?

118
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: Mentally?

119
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 4: We see that shook one book right there, like I

120
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 4: remember like reading it on tour, like brouh, like the

121
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 4: levity of like everything is just crazy right now, and

122
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 4: it's like the way we desensitize for everything.

123
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: It's nuts.

124
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 4: Like five years ago we were not even We would

125
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,239
Speaker 4: never say like, goa have a pandemic and the Trump

126
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,600

00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 4: just love these there's National Guard like in front of

128
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 4: places I grew up at.

129
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: You know.

130
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 4: That's one, and then two is like, you know, I'm

131
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 4: this weird anominally in the industry, whereas I'm from this

132
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 4: place that I'm the only person really in the in

133
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:27,679
Speaker 4: the black spaces in the industry, and it's like I'm dolo,

134
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 4: like for real, like navigating through it and everybody know

135
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 4: by now like I'm not clique.

136
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: I don't really mingle. I'll be in and out the spot.

137
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: I'm ana blur. So it's like, you know, everything is

138
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: a lot like this. This is who I am.

139
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 4: This is this is like this is good, the bad,

140
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 4: the imperfect.

141
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: Wow.

142
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 4: We all literally like try and figure it out. It

143
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 4: don't matter what your tax reckort is. We all literally

144
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 4: try and figure it out because especially the black people,

145
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 4: we don't know what's gonna happen. For real, and we know,

146
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 4: like certain people playing in our face. So it's like

147
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 4: the levity of how much all of that is and

148
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 4: still like trying me personally, trying to navigate through life

149
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 4: like relationships. Where do I want to move? I would

150
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 4: love to move back to DC, but it's too heavy,

151
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 4: it's too much.

152
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: I can't go.

153
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 4: I can't even go get my mom from groceries because

154
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 4: it's like, you know what I'm saying. So it's just

155
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: the levity of all of it. It's just a it's

156
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 4: a lot.

157
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 5: Well, what song on this album felt the hardest for

158
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 5: you to record emotionally?

159
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 4: Probably Survive, because like I never talk about it, like,

160
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 4: but there was definitely like a like a rewiring in

161
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 4: my brain, like like right after ambition, my you know,

162
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 4: my my cousin died the day after his first born

163
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 4: was born, and I was trying to I was really

164
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 4: trying to weave a lot of that, like, you know,

165
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 4: like make sense of it because it just seemed so

166
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 4: like so I really was going through it think still

167
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 4: to this day. But I never mentioned it on record.

168
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 4: And then my little Man racks, you know, that's my

169
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: man square. Oh squirrel not here, squirrel outside, But yeah,

Speaker 1: That's his uncle.

172
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 4: But you know, like I spent a lot of time

173
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 4: with Racks, Like I've really liked you, like how was

174
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 4: Racked like seventeen right sixteen, And you know, I had

175
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 4: him on my hip, and you know, I'm actually learning

176
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: from him, learning from me. I had him, Like the

177
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 4: last thing you hear on for Lauren two is his voice.

178
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 4: He'd be like for the city though, And I remember

179
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 4: the songs called Beverly Boulevard and I remember just riding

180
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 4: around Beverly Boulevard eight.

181
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:45,000

184
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 4: how like And I'm just like, you know, when you

185
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 4: bring people around that don't be around, like people you

186
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 4: might have grown up with. You bring him to like

187
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 4: the nice hotels or whatever, and it kind of gives

188
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: you it gets you back excited because we probably used

189
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 4: to it and it's not like that I was feeling

190
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 4: all them feelings like so we had a great connection

191
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,720

193
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 4: that's not that's not the first time that happened. But

194
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 4: it's like I don't be talking about that in interviews.

195
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 4: I don't talk about in his songs because it's just

196
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 4: like that joint. It'd be too too crazy, Like you

197
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. So I address it and survive.

198

00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 4: a pillar to the jon't They don't know. They don't

219
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: like people don't know. They think it's just like, oh yeah,

222
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: lot of that and I try to be a hope film.

223
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,120

Speaker 4: you seeing like I got, like I got like fifteen

225
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 4: records with ghosts.

226
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

227
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 4: That ain't no, that ain't like that do something to

228
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 4: your brain and then when you really know, like what happened,

229
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 4: what like and then put you in a position of like,

230
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So Survivor was like I

231
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 4: had to take it there for the That's the first

232
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 4: time in my career I really talked about that other

233
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 4: side of what I gotta deal.

234
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 5: With And what about blanco Blanco is I.

235
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: Don't I don't think people cracked the code on Blanco.

236
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 4: But that's another thing I learned on this media run

237
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 4: is like, oh, like y'all listen to music different now,

238

Speaker 4: have even been Blanco and like they was like, yeah,

241
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,400

00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: No, this is about like.

243
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 4: Really avoiding avoidant personality disorder. This is about knowing you

244
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 4: got you gotta do this, but you struggle with it.

245
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 4: I you know what I'm saying, You gotta go in

246
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 4: this room and dah da dah like I ain't ever.

247
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 4: I can be in any room. I can handle it.

248
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 4: But it's also like what I gotta do to get

249
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 4: me there? To get me there? Because it's like like

250

257
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 4: that that's draining, Like you know what I'm saying. We've

258
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,160

266
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 4: that being alone, Like I spent so much time by

267
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,360

00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: juice is worth the squeeze though lately you know what

272
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 4: I'm saying.

273
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,280

274
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: you love them like it's just like.

275
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 4: It gets a little frustrated sometimes when I just know

276
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 4: that like certain people at the level that we at,

277
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,640

282
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 4: sparked ideas with me. But like man, media it's different now,

283
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 4: like they might backdoor you in an interview and clickbait

284
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 4: you and make you look crazy, like I be wondering

285

Speaker 4: that I gotta do to even get my music heard

292
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 4: is a little frustrating because I was doing like I've

293
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 4: been consistent for so long, and most people when they consistent,

294
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,480

346
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 4: that because like the vergo on me that was.

347
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 5: Like say, it was the joke.

348
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that's what I'm saying.

349
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 5: Confusing, I don't know, I could.

350
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,880

00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,239
Speaker 4: I like, I don't, I don't even I just had

352
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:07,880

00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: Never mentioned cool. But I love you, I thank you.

354
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 6: And at the same time, I still talk about everybody.

355
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 5: It's just you know, just funny.

356
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 4: The game is the game, you know what I'm saying,

357
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 4: like I've that's one thing I've definitely learned, like post COVID,

358
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 4: like the game is the game?

359
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 5: You remember the joke? Yo? No, I don't remember. I

360
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 5: do want to go back to something just said though

361
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 5: about the Blanco record though, because you said, you know,

362
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 5: trying to ease my mind, trying to trying to ease

363
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 5: my mind, trying to free my mind. Got a three

364
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 5: some with these demons and I need some time, right.

365
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 5: And I always think about, you know, when they when

366
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 5: they have artists, the writer will be alcohol or anything else.

367
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 5: Do you think that people should maybe say, hey, let's

368
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 5: try something else. Maybe.

369
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't speak for everybody else, I can't think.

370
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 4: Well, I definitely always say that I think, uh, somebody

371
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 4: record deals should come with.

372
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 1: Access to a therapist.

373
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 4: Like we was a lot of money, you know, and

374
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 4: a lot of these kids it's coming from super traumatic

375
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 4: they don't even know how much trauma they have in

376
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 4: them and just navigating through this industry like you're gonna

377
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 4: need it because like brother come in talented artists, we

378
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 4: lose young because they're just getting.

379
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: Thrust into this.

380
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,199
Speaker 4: So you know, I definitely think that's we need to

381
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 4: have some type of mental health like like union with

382
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 4: rappers or musicians, and it should be free to Duke

383
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 4: Gallington uh uh and and uh that's Chappelle. That's where

384
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 4: he went to high school. And Johnny Gill like it's

385
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 4: an art school in DC. And it's like, now Taraji

386
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 4: did something. She did, she gos a wellness thing that

387
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 4: she's doing in the d NV and she they gotta

388
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 4: they literally uh at uh entertainment psychologists in the school.

389
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I think that's so fascinating because it's

390
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 4: like I always wonder what if I had some type

391
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 4: of some some of this knowledge before, I probably would

392
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 4: have carried him when I was in high school, because

393
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 4: I don't think it's in school. So it's like you gotta

394
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 4: take that joint, like you gotta take And he told me,

395
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 4: and like I was just you know, I was I

396
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,239
Speaker 4: was doing the principal for the day thing and I

397
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 4: was just sitting in and he was talking about stuff.

398
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 4: He was like, yeah, you know a lot of times

399
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 4: when you perform, you performing three times. You like, you're

400
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 4: performing for yourself, you're performing on stage, and then you're

401
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 4: also performing for the people that need you to be

402
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 4: a certain way when the show is over, like it

403
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 4: don't stop. And he's like, that can cause a lot

404
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 4: of pressure, you know what I'm saying. So once I

405
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 4: heard that me just sitting in the class, I'm like,

406
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 4: this is a very very interesting like thing that's necessary.

407
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 4: And then I'm talking to some of the kids and

408
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 4: I'm like, what makes y'all nervous? What makes y'all? And

409
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 4: all of it was, and he's just like, but they

410
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 4: like jin alpha right in high school?

411
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: Right now? Is that still gen z or is alpha?

412
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: You know? They was.

413
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 4: I'm trying to learn how they operate, you know, and

414
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 4: they're like a lot of it is the pressure of school,

415
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. The pressure of like playing

416
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 4: their instrument or doing that, like because it's an art school,

417
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 4: the pressure of getting into college, you know what I'm saying.

418
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 4: So it's just interesting to just see how that joint,

419
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 4: how much like people be thinking that, well, some people

420
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 4: use mental health as like a hook to get something,

421
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 4: but like when that's why, you know, Charlemagne always been

422
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 4: inspirational because it's like I feel like kind of Trojan

423
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 4: Horse the whole, like mental health, Like you know what

424
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,959
Speaker 4: I'm saying, and I applied it to like music and

425
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 4: why I'm feeling like I'm feeling, and why I came

426
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 4: in a game as an extrovert, but now I was like,

427
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 4: I rather be by myself. You know what I'm saying.

428
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 4: These are all things that I really couldn't figure out.

429
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 4: So I just feel like it's a good thing that

430
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 4: like if we had a little bit, they don't have

431
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 4: to go, but it should be readily available because like

432
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 4: they need somebody to call. Man, Like, you can't call

433
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 4: your friends from your neighborhood no more because they they

434
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 4: kind of look at you as it, even if they

435
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 4: love you, they.

436
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: Look at you different. Do you have somebody to call?

437
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: Do you speak to a therapist? And anybody? Try?

438
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 4: Like Bro, I saw I saw one of the first

439
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 4: bills that got from this one. I'm like, and then

440
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 4: and then he wasn't even available. I'm like, do you

441
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 4: just made me cry on his couch?

442
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 1: Bro? Like where you go and left me?

443
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, You got you want to

444
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,479
Speaker 4: with barberstride saying or something like you've moved away, so

445
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 4: it do be It's That's That's one thing that I

446
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 4: will say, like when it comes to that therapy work is.

447
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 4: I think it's a little bit even more difficult when

448
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 4: you're somebody that be on TV or that's well known.

449
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, because you you know, it's

450
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 4: a look that everybody.

451
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: Gee you like that. You know, oh, it's getting in

452
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: the fan territory.

453
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 3: So you don't want a comfortable talk because that would

454
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 3: be difficult feeling comfortable as a celebrity to talk to

455
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 3: somebody and knowing that he's gonna keep you up moments

456
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 3: to himself.

457
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm I'm, I'm.

458
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 4: That's the thing I'm still trying to find. I'm still trying.

459
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: To find it. Like I'm something.

460
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 4: I think it needs to be the exact opposite, like

461
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 4: a white woman or like doesn't know because then it's

462
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 4: just logically putting things together. Or then sometimes I need

463
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 4: maybe it's a black man so he understands the plight.

464
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 4: So it's just deep. It's like a thing that I'm

465
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 4: like trying to figure out.

466
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 5: Put together a team, like you can't you can't just

467
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 5: have one. That's that's something I learned. You can't just

468
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 5: have one.

469
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 4: I learned that in the acting world, like you have

470
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 4: to have different cuaches, like like to get your best.

471
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 4: So I get what you mean, like different, like just

472
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 4: to to like to get everything in one place.

473
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 8: I take that.

474
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, I'll be confused and I

475
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 3: gotta talk to you and then I got to explain

476
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 3: to her what I just told you. And I think

477
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 3: the worst part about the therapy process is damn y'all,

478
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 3: ain't do me like fat joel, y'all let me talk,

479
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 3: nah for let me talk. But like I think the

480
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 3: most intense part of therapy is like finding one and

481
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: then like that because because that like you gotta do

482
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 3: you gotta do that session when you unpacked so much,

483
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 3: and it brings you to a crazy like it bring

484
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 3: you like down and it's like I can't do this again.

485
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 4: This one didn't work. I can't do this again. Like

486
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 4: you know, this one was too expensive. I can't do

487
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 4: this again. So that probably runs more people off than

488
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 4: anything else.

489
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 9: I think power and problems. You said you feel like

490
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 9: therapy is extortion.

491
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, the therapy talks shit. The therapy talk shit for

492
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 4: like backdoor extortion. You're thinking you all heal, but you

493
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: really you've gone here, you back on it now, I

494
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 4: go back on that block list. He back on that

495
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 4: black list, You back on that blacklist because me, I

496
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 4: can be y'all can be anything. Me, I gotta be

497
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 4: cautious and I'm on this. I'd rather be single than

498
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 4: double cross ship, because that's that's what it is, all right,

499
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 4: You've got got like my power is being able to

500
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 4: be alone, but my problem is being alone.

501
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: The last three months of the album, I was in there.

502
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 4: I was in my little band house, pacing fucking all

503
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 4: types of mister childs bags were all around, Like I'm just,

504
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 4: I'm just, I'm all the way in it, just trying

505
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 4: to get everything out my body, everything out of my

506
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 4: mind and my heart, just going for it like you

507
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, and that that lonely that lonely

508
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 4: thing is a real thing.

509
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: Bro.

510
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 4: Like everybody want to fake kick it with me outside,

511
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 4: but like like, bro, like the real thing when it

512
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 4: all boils down to it, Like who's around my family?

513
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: All my family in DC. I'm in LA.

514
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 4: I'm like where you gonna find real? I have to

515
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 4: always talk to black thought about this. I'm like, yo,

516
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 4: like comedians actors to some extent, they hate on each

517
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 4: other too, But like comedians, actors, athletes there's always community.

518
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 4: Hip hop don't got no community. Everybody for theirself. Everybody

519
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 4: is no community, you know what I'm saying.

520
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 1: Like you didn't have community with when you was with MG.

521
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: That's that's I don't. I wouldn't consider that community.

522
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 4: That's a crew, just like you have your friends or whatever,

523
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 4: like you can't y'all might not have the same interest,

524
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. Like, so for me, unity

525
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 4: comes when y'all have the same interest, y'all have the

526
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 4: same like like somewhat idiosyncrasies and like you got the

527
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 4: same thing. Like y'all all the kind of guy that like, oh,

528
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 4: we all played the trombone and we all we all

529
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 4: do we all do comedy. In comedy, you'll see like five,

530
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 4: you'll see done now with Dave. You'll see fourever comedians

531
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 4: helping them like crafted thing.

532
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: It's not really like that in hip hop.

533
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 5: But they all came up together though, Like I always wondered,

534
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 5: like even when I look at y'all from the old

535
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 5: Double XL Freshman coupleless, like you know, even those people,

536
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 5: wh y'all didn't build something there, Na damn when.

537
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 4: They talk to people like that, I didn't know we

538
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 4: were talking about. I came in extrovert. I was ready

539
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 4: to talk to everybody, but I gotta I got a

540
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 4: philosophy or like a conspiracy.

541
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: That I think.

542
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,479
Speaker 4: I think like around around anywhere from six to like

543
00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 4: nine years by that that bubble, something traumatic happen to

544
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 4: every single person in this industry entertainment. That changes you

545
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 4: one way or another. It might make you more optimistic

546
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 4: about you know what I'm saying.

547
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,439
Speaker 1: What was that for you? You remember what it was?

548
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: It wasn't.

549
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 4: Maybe around the time Shine Drop, I just had my

550
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 4: daughter and I was at her name of ceremony and

551
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 4: I found out I got back door on like like

552
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: three million dollars at my child's name is ceremony. I

553
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 4: remember storming out on the phone because I signed something

554
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 4: that was supposed to be something schoolterbron management and then

555
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 4: it ended up doing like a breach for something like

556
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 4: a loophole, and I realized that the lawyer was in

557
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 4: on it, like it was the whole thing, and that

558
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 4: changed me.

559
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 5: Who was you signed to?

560
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 4: It was just a I don't even know if I'm

561
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 4: a lot, you know what I'm saying, Because it was

562
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 4: a lot. You do not trust people yeah, And I

563
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 4: remember I was on literally when Zala was born, Like

Speaker 4: I'm literally looking at my phone and I'm like on

568
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 4: shave room for not being able to attend this Barclay show.

569
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,280

00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: I was. I was, I was locked in.

574
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,760

00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 4: contract that say because she was it was due and

578
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 4: like just like that, like how how ruthless? It was

579
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 4: like I'm bringing life into this world and like seeing

580
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 4: what that? That changed me when Lotus flower Bomb dropped.

581
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 4: You know, I'm grateful for all the success, but like

582
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 4: you know, I submitted the song and when I heard

583
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 4: it on our Heart Every Hour one hour Stimulus package, right,

584
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 4: my voices pitched up. They made a couple of changes,

585
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 4: and I'm like that changed me. But it was a hit, no,

586
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 4: but it changed me because like how could you work

587
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 4: on this song and and then like imagine you tapping

588
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 4: in conversations with somebody and it's like going to the

589
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 4: world and like you had on the radio, was.

590
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 6: Like why do I Yep, it didn't sound like what

591
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 6: it was when you're.

592
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 4: Fins And it just made me again to trust things

593
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 4: and whatever, you know, you know, I mentioned it on

594

596
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 4: like embarrassment and all of that. Like a lot of

597
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 4: things changed me, like complex leaking the phone, the conversation

598
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 4: we had even though I was lunching a little bit,

599
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 4: but like what company does that? Like like we've all

600
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 4: called a company and cursed them out. They don't post

601
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 4: it things like that, like kind of like you know.

602
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:04,240

00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 4: I've got to do stuff. That's you know what I'm saying.

622
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 4: I understand it's not physically trying, but like right up here,

623
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 4: like it do something to you. It do do something

624
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 4: because I put myself out there. I've been I've been

625
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,640

00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: You know you want from me? That's that's that's really

629
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: what I mean everything. I promise you.

630
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 4: I probably got to thinker scin ninety percent of the

631
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 4: population because what I've been through. I'm not like upset,

632
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 4: but sometimes I like, if you get a thousand things

633
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 4: thrown your way, like one of them going like mess

634
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 4: with you.

635
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, what's the perfect relationship with

636
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 7: you between the industry and an artist like wile, Like

637
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 7: if it could go the way you think it would,

638
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 7: because what you're describing is people just being business as usual.

639
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 9: I just yeah, get around.

640
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just it's just to be feeling with. But

641
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 4: I just in the perfect world is just like the

642
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 4: art is the is the thing right now, everybody's saying,

643
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 4: I got one of the best albums of the year easily,

644
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 4: and then I wanted to be the best album of

645
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 4: the twenty twenties. Then I wanted to be one of

646
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 4: the best albums of all time. You know what I'm saying,

647
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 4: Like that in a perfect world to be like that,

648
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 4: but like so many other things coming to play, like

649
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 4: we're not you know, an algorithm told y'all that while

650
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 4: they not good, like while they not hot, or while

651
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 4: they's this or whatever. Algorithm told you that. You know,

652
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 4: algorithm told you that they played the next song for you.

653
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

654
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: So we are So I can't battle that I had

655
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: a decline.

656
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 5: I had.

657
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 4: I had one of the biggest declines in like seals

658
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 4: nothing tour wise changed, but I had the biggest decline

659
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 4: in sales when it went from uh physical to streaming.

660
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: Like it's just like everything.

661
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,479
Speaker 4: I stopped hitting one hundred first week once I went

662
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 4: to streaming because I'm.

663
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 5: A high box like everybody else you should.

664
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: That's why I start that.

665
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 4: That's why I start belly off or they say the

666
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 4: streams fake the box running this thing. Wait, I can't,

667
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 4: Like I like, I can't. You know, it's dead Internet,

668
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 4: three types shit going on. So it's like I get it,

669
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 4: like you know, I can't, but it's like I can't

670
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 4: even play that game like it's it's a it's a

671
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 4: I feel like it's just slapping the face of who

672
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 4: hurking them. That's crazy, It's just slapping the face when

673
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 4: you know.

674
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 3: Because when they play with your name and you say something,

675
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 3: they say you're emotional, But now you understand why you

676
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 3: take it to heart soul strong.

677
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 4: Because because and then the other thing is like, I

678
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 4: know I know you'll favorite rappers for real, I know them,

679
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 4: and I'm like you think, brah, you think I'm I'm

680
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 4: just honest with my I'm all these guys, like a

681
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 4: lot of these guys be just like they just be

682
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 4: purple like they're not.

683
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: It ain't like that, I know you for real.

684
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 4: So it do be frustrating because I'm not trying to

685
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 4: be rob rob whatever. But I'm saying what I say.

686
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 4: I'm I'm honest. I tell you my life. A lot

687
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 4: of people like just you know what I mean. So,

688
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 4: like I look at the industry a certain way, I

689
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 4: look at how it is a certain way.

690
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 5: What did making this album teach you about yourself that

691
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 5: you didn't know before?

692
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: Oh?

693
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 4: Man, I took it to the limit. Man, I just

694
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 4: took it to the limit. Like my engineer really really

695
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 4: really good technical and like technic technical cool, but he

696
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 4: don't got that thing that we all got, like you

697
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 4: know that thing like like I'm doing like you listen

698
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 4: to like Blanc or Cornerback going, I'm doing four par

699
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 4: harmonies because I'm like, you know, big Jodysy fans, I'm like,

700
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 4: there ain't no rappers doing no four paromedy.

701
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: And I can't even talk to him.

702
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: About callback get on up you D'Angelo, Like I can't

703
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 4: because there's a thing and I didn't realize how much

704
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 4: it matters for the engineer to have that you know

705
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, because havn't really we was really having

706
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 4: I had to really teach to.

707
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: Him while I'm making an album.

708
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 4: It was it was the this has been the hardest

709
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 4: thing I've ever had to do, like creatively.

710
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 9: Ever bou Mi Wow and Mira on the Bens.

711
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 7: It's kind of like a letter to yourself, Like you're

712
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 7: talking to yourself right with you being so vulnerable and

713
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 7: so honest, and you're saying that like you don't take

714
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 7: it as people like you don't inherit the I'm emotional.

715
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,479
Speaker 7: I'm just honest, Why did you? Why did while they

716
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 7: feel like he maybe.

717
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 4: Maybe I am emotionals like you know what I'm saying,

718
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 4: but it's not it's not without it's not without reason.

719
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 7: I'm saying, Well, I'm just saying I feel like in

720
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 7: this in this song, when I'm hearing you talk to yourself,

721
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,439
Speaker 7: I'm like, yes, I want him to do this often

722
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:13,479
Speaker 7: because I want more music.

723
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 9: I want him out and about.

724
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 7: But hearing you talk here and right now, it's kind

725
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 7: of like you not letting things get you, but they

726
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 7: are getting to you.

727
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 9: So I'm wondering why.

728
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 7: You decided to put a record like this where you're

729
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,720
Speaker 7: kind of basically saying I do need that uplifting sometimes

730
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 7: because you've always said I don't care what's going on,

731
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 7: I just.

732
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 9: Stay away from y'all.

733
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 4: Could we just like I mean, like it's just you know,

734
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 4: you know, black women put me onto man like Manifest

735
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 4: and all that, Like, so I wanted I just wanted

736
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 4: to put in this song for him, like that joint,

737
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 4: Like it's that joint is really just for black men.

738
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 1: They ain't.

739
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 4: They ain't for nobody else. Being on the bands is

740
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 4: for black men. Manifest Like I'm not, I wasn't the biggest.

741
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 4: I'm still not really big on it, but I'm like,

742
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 4: if I'm gonna try it, let me do it in

743
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 4: in the form of a song, you know, like like

744
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 4: and it's like, I'm a mind to myself who inspire

745
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 4: everybody there that's inspiring the youth.

746
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 1: I want to my horn. I'm just clearing it to you.

747
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,359
Speaker 4: I know you're just mirrit but my fear is only youth,

748
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 4: Like I'm only scared of Like I'm only fearing myself

749
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 4: and what I'm capable of, you know what I'm saying.

750
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 4: So I just have to speak life into my career

751
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 4: because sometimes it do be feeling like I get left

752
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 4: out of a lot of things that I'm not supposed

753
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 4: to be left out of. So I gotta remind myself

754
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 4: like you deserve everything you do. They just want to

755
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 4: get you in the move. They're gonna try us to

756
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 4: work right. Should have never stopped listening to you, And

757
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,959
Speaker 4: that's the inner child in me, Like, should never stop listening.

758
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 4: I should have never stopped listening to the child, the

759
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 4: kid that was bold enough to try rap in DC

760
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 4: and may it like that that he's somewhere inside here

761
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 4: as jaded as I am. He's somewhere inside and I'm

762
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 4: trying to pull it out. I should have never stopped

763
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 4: listening to you.

764
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 5: What made you stop listening to him? Noise Industry, I.

765
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 4: Think we all stopped listening to our inner child sometimes,

766
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 4: like it's like this this game, you know, failure or

767
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 4: like like not reaching your goals. You try to reroute things.

768
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 4: You try like, man, Okay, I'm gonna do it this way,

769
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do it that way. You know what I'm saying, though,

770
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 4: And sometimes when you do that, you lose your in

771
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,359
Speaker 4: a child. I hear comedians talk about it all the time.

772
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 1: I hear you know.

773
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 4: Rappers say it in other ways or you can see

774
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:23,000

836
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,560

00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 4: I talked to cold. That was probably only two times

842
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,239

Speaker 4: bit that I'll say that I won't turn away. The

940
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 4: original line was my baby mother told me she loved me,

941
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 4: but got to move on.

942
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 1: I was like why and now the hallelujah.

1020
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 4: in DC that to Maryland And I just remember like

1021
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 4: my mom would drop us a banging house and all

1022
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:06,120

1027
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,240
Speaker 4: sniffed dad, you know what I'm saying. But sometimes and parents,

1028
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 4: and it's crazy because what we do, We got more

1029
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 4: money than people our ad parents are, so they getting

1030
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:31,040

1031
00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 4: in because we got we got you know what I'm saying, Like,

1032
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 4: so it kind of shapes their personality a little bit.

1033
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 4: I just think it's kind of crazy, Like you know

1034
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,720
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, Like you know, having no you know.

1035

Speaker 1: Private schools and all that exactly.

1036
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:50,800
Speaker 4: So yeah, but like I just wanted to have like

1037
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 4: like more than what I had, And maybe I might

1038
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 4: obsess over it too much because I work crazy to

1039
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 4: be like, yo, everything is taken care of, you know

1040
00:48:58,640 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 4: what I'm saying.

1041
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 1: But that's a big thing.

1042
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 4: I just learned to know how hard I go, and

1043
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 4: then when she get to the agent, she find her

1044

1054
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 4: It's just like, Mommy, you don't understand or you don't

00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 4: really care.

1056
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 1: It's one of the other.

1057
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 4: But it took a long time in my career for

1058
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 4: even to even acknowledge this is a real job, you

1059
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. I think it was when I

1060
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 4: met Obama, when I performed at the White House, because

1061
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 4: that's that's the biggest picture in the living room now

1062
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 4: you've been doing it for that long and that was yeah,

1063
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 4: that's crazy, right, But it's like I can't be mad her,

1064
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:59,400
Speaker 4: like she my mom had a hard life in Nigeria.

1065
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 4: She early got here, like you know what I'm saying.

1066
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 4: So it's like sometimes I try to be like get

1067
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 4: like juice her up, like mommy, you see what I'm doing,

1068
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 4: like ain't you happy? Like and she's just like yeah,

1069
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 4: that's nice, like you know what I'm saying the subjects.

1070
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 4: So I don't know. I think it's just like as

1071
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 4: we get older, like like I just I do be

1072

1073
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:22,760
Speaker 4: I was younger, like my whatever, like like I still

1074
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 4: pay bills and take care of it like y'all, like

1075
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 4: wanted her to know, like you know what I'm saying

1076
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,240
Speaker 4: because I was really bad, like I was really troubled

1077
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,239
Speaker 4: when I was a child, like I ain't go to

00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 4: people don't understand, like when I was torn with my ronson.

1235
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 4: We was opening for Ja, so he had his eye

1236
00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 4: on me for a long time. I remember I forgot

1237
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 4: where we were. We just like like maybe like a

1238
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:27,360
Speaker 4: week stretch, and he that's what they started being comfortable

1239
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 4: letting me around, so like he got him up. We

1240
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 4: slapped boxing and everything at this point, and I remember

1241
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 4: he saw me because I ain't had no songs out

1242
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 4: like that. I have mixtape songs and I'm doing like

1243
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 4: sixty thousand people with Mark having to keep the crowd going,

1244
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 4: and he saw around the time more about nothing drop.

1245
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 4: He saw the process of me hearing the song with

1246
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 4: them like Bungalow eight or one of them clubs and

1247
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 4: like bobbing my head to it to like it being

1248
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 4: on the mixtape, to me performing it because I ain't

1249
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 4: have no joint. So I sampled this song called Black

1250
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:11,160
Speaker 4: and Gold that was big in like the UK Island

1251
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,760
Speaker 4: around that time, and that made it like an EDM song.

1252
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 4: And I remember walking off that stage and he dapped me.

1253
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 4: He was like, dog, you different, you'd be figuring it

1254
00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 4: out because he saw when I just get your hands

1255
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 4: up random hip hop dah da to me doing an

1256
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 4: EDM record and be like, Okay, I know they gonna

1257
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 4: know the hook and they got I figured that out

1258
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 4: early and he always admired that. So I think that

1259
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 4: when he said the resilient thing, he saw everything that

1260
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 4: I was going through with them, even the chilling video

1261
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 4: like when the debut don't want them to Si the Park.

1262
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 4: It was completely different. He was in the office. He

1263
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,800
Speaker 4: saw what I was going through. Pretty earl video. They

1264
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 4: actually put it out with a green screen in the

1265
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:56,920
Speaker 4: background instead of what it was supposed to be. He

1266
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:58,720
Speaker 4: was there with that and he just see how I

1267
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 4: kept maneuvering, like yeah, I kirk out online, I'll be mad.

1268
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 4: But he would see how like land On my feet

1269
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 4: or like bounce back with something. So I think that's

1270
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 4: why he said that, like looking back on it, but

1271
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 4: it rejuiced me for my like I'm always I always

1272
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:12,040
Speaker 4: think about that.

1273
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 7: Yeah know that that sounds like community, right, and that's

1274
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 7: how you said it was that sounds like management management,

1275
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 7: But that sounds like but do you know how many

1276
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,479
Speaker 7: times you have management but like they don't care enough

1277
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 7: to even watch you go through these things and do

1278
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 7: as much as they can and give you props to

1279
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 7: push you into the.

1280
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,480
Speaker 1: Use a business though it is definitely not gonna. It's

1281
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 1: definitely been.

1282
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:37,320
Speaker 4: And also like he is Michael Jordan and Michael, you

1283
01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 4: can't ask Michael Jordan why the thirteens don't fit like

1284
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 4: the twelves, you know what I'm saying.

1285
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: So it's like it was business. He definitely took a

1286
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 1: liking to me.

1287
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,919
Speaker 4: But it's still like I'm still earn earth like Earn

1288
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,680
Speaker 4: and the potential, not saying that that's why, but it's

1289
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 4: just like, you know, I don't I don't look at

1290
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 4: that as community. Community is me asking black dog, like, yo,
