You feel me, game banging is really real. 646 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: Niggas is out here game banging. Like don't think Nigga's 647 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: not really game banging, because niggas is doing that. But 648 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: at the same time, like not to I don't want 649 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: to never make this sound weird because I don't never 650 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: want to disrespect nobody. But a lot of people would 651 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: say that the niggas. That's making music. It's not game banging, 652 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: and that's not true because the niggas is game banging too. 653 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: But as a man, first, it comes a point where 654 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: you have to realize, like it's opportunity out here, you 655 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I mean everybody moving to others 656 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: stronger than everyone being absolutely, but not just even saying, 657 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: just from a personal standpoint, I don't game bang, so 658 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm not in all that. I don't have the same 659 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: policies as everybody else, right, you feel me. So I 660 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: could go right here, go right there, go do this, 661 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: go do that, go to that. I'll be cool, you 662 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: feel me. But a lot of niggas can't do that. 663 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: But when it's time to do the music, like niggas 664 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: having shows and shit, some reason niggas is respecting each other, 665 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: so they letting everybody. I mean, I always tell everybody. 666 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: When Archie and Grido did that show on stage together, 667 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: that was the first versus battle. That was hard as 668 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: a motherfucker, and nothing bad happened. Nothing bad happened, but 669 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: that was just like to show it can happen. That 670 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: shit was crazy, you feel me, it showing happened. But 671 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: the city's just live bro like right now, because it's 672 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: like everybody really know each other and everybody really like 673 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm really a fan of the homies, Like I'm really 674 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: if I really like their music, I like what they're doing, 675 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: and then I want them to do whatever they want 676 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: to do. So if it's anything like you feel me, 677 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: if you having a show, I would not come right, 678 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: why wouldn't I come here?

It's way harder because you really have to pickpoint, 683 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: pick apart what you hate because this nigga could be 684 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: doing something that this nigga that you like is doing 685 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: they doing.
