<v Speaker 2>I probably started making this when I was like ten.

0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, so ten? Is it a single mom home?

<v Speaker 1>for work?

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 4>My mom did a lot of stuff. Man, My mom

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:12.800
<v Speaker 4>had a couple of businesses. She was a social worker.

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.840
<v Speaker 4>She just did it all for real, you know. She

0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 4>she had a party planning business.

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Moms really got to work.

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Your mom was a social worker. I noticed when I

0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>was reading as much as I could about you, you

0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.719
<v Speaker 1>have like an affinity for like special.

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Needs y'all want. That's what I studied in college.

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Does that have something to do with the fact that

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>your mom was in social worker?

0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:36.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like definitely, Like I'm probably influenced by Like I

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.479
<v Speaker 4>don't think nobody's influenced boy, like just one thing specifically,

0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 4>you know, I feel like the universe talked to you,

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 4>Like it be like a chain of events.

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:49.600
<v Speaker 2>So Yeah, with my mom.

0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.039
<v Speaker 4>My mom being a social worker had a lot to

0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 4>do with it because I've seen so much. She was

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 4>always gone, she was always dealing with other people, children

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.239
<v Speaker 4>and stuff like that. So sometimes I used to be hating,

0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 4>but you know, you know what I'm saying, when I

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 4>got older enough to really understand that, like she was

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 4>doing good work. You know what I'm saying, She's saving

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 4>people lives, like you start really noticing.

0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Other people's situations as you get older.

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.600
<v Speaker 4>I just really commend her for her job and all

0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:14.240
<v Speaker 4>the stress and stuff that she had to go through,

0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:16.279
<v Speaker 4>and on top of that, still deal with me, you

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 4>know what I'm saying, and a handful that I was

0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 4>and then deal with life like you know what I mean.

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.320
<v Speaker 2>So I commend her a lot.

0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:23.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:26.719
<v Speaker 1>You do a give back event in LA. Can you

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>tell us more about it?

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 2>Uh? Yeah, Two for Real Days.

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 4>So we throw two for Real Day every year and

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 4>it's like a community give back event, charity event. So

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 4>we have performances and like games and little rides and

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 4>stuff for all the kids to come out and have fun.

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 4>We give back school supplies, we make sure they're ready

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.720
<v Speaker 4>for school, clothes and stuff like that. We got a

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:50.440
<v Speaker 4>lot of sponsors like Ethica, Puma's been one of the sponsors.

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:55.600
<v Speaker 4>True Religion was a sponsor last year. A lot of

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 4>different food vendors and stuff come through and help us.

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:03.840
<v Speaker 4>Costco always donate a lot, so we just take that,

0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.040
<v Speaker 4>take everything that we get from that and try to

0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:07.520
<v Speaker 4>give it out to the community. We throw it at

0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 4>Compton College, so we'll probably start doing it every year

0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 4>at Company College. It started off as just a block

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 4>party though in the neighborhood. We used to just throw

0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:15.680
<v Speaker 4>a block party in the neighborhood. And when you say we,

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 4>who was we to me and my homies and my

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 4>family and my friends. Started off with me and my friends,

0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 4>and then as I became a bigger artist, we just

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.520
<v Speaker 4>like it became more and more and more, like just

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:27.800
<v Speaker 4>bigger every year, so we have to keep bringing people.

0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 1>What's interesting about you is you have this amazing artistry

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:37.360
<v Speaker 1>music career. Thanks and I don't know if it gets

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>highlighted enough, but when you read your resume or your backstory,

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.160
<v Speaker 1>you have almost an equal amount of this whole other

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:47.520

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.559

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.160
<v Speaker 1>this this other inspiration coming from?

0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Probably my grandmother.

0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:01.600
<v Speaker 4>My grandmother was really like a heavy influence on my life,

0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:03.159
<v Speaker 4>Like that was my dog, you know what I'm saying.

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.560
<v Speaker 2>So just before she passed away.

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.520

0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:12.640
<v Speaker 1>listeners there. They're gonna be like, stop tapping. Use another, uh,

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:17.800
<v Speaker 1>use another tool. Maybe maybe that flat one. I was

0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:19.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna say the other food flat one, but maybe that one.

0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:24.720

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:26.120

<v Speaker 2>All? Right?

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.480
<v Speaker 4>If you ain't never had a struggle meal with no dirt, like,

0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 4>stop playing, stop stop acting like you ain't never had

0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:40.080
<v Speaker 4>a struggle meal with no dirt in here.

0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 2>You ain't never sneeze on food. You ain't never dropped

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 2>the ice cube picked back up through it. I have,

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:48.240
<v Speaker 2>I've done that, but I still do.

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:50.119
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know if I've ever sneezed in food.

0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 4>Though I didn't drop the homie full taco shells on

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:56.360
<v Speaker 4>the ground, still made them.

0:07:56.200 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>For him, I don't. I don't know if I'll ever

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:05.720
<v Speaker 1>let you cook for me off camera. Off cameras on

0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 1>camera can see if you mess it up.

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 2>You just gotta pay attention. You never know, I might sprinkling.

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 1>What's crazy is you put all that seasoning in the water,

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 1>but I have not seen any seasoning on the meat

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 1>that has attention.

0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh you put seasoning on it.

0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I was so busy focused on listening. Okay, Okay,

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>let's go back to the story. Okay, So the inspiration

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 1>for all this other complete polar opposite of who who

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.760
<v Speaker 1>it seems like you represent in your music.

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:38.079
<v Speaker 4>I don't really think it's like a opposite, like I'm

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:38.959
<v Speaker 4>still the same person.

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 2>It's just like that's kind of that's pretty.

0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:44.839
<v Speaker 4>Much like the basis of why I started making music

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:46.439
<v Speaker 4>is that you can be whoever you want to be.

0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 2>Is still be a.

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 4>Rapper, Like you don't gotta be a thug, you don't

0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:52.679
<v Speaker 4>gotta be like, you don't gotta be nothing like stereotypical.

0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 2>You could be whoever you want to be and still

0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 2>make it.

0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 4>You know what I'm saying, Chief success, people still think

0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 4>you cool, Like cool is like standard of yourself, you

0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:03.040
<v Speaker 4>know what I mean? That's what the for real for

0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:06.000
<v Speaker 4>real means it's like it's like doubling down on being yourself,

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 4>being real.

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's where that comes from.

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.839
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So take me back. You're a kid growing up

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 1>at home, what's your next injection towards artistry? Like growing up, like,

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.439
<v Speaker 1>where do you start figuring out what you want to do?

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 4>I played sports, so I was really playing sports and

0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:25.400
<v Speaker 4>like just music and sports kind of I go hand

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 4>in hand. So when I was a kid, I know

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:29.880
<v Speaker 4>I wanted to make music too, but I didn't know

0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:31.480
<v Speaker 4>I want to be a rapper. I always thought I

0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 4>wanted to be like a producer or something. So I

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 4>started off kind of just like making beasts, but I

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 4>was like horrible. So I was like, let me just

0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:40.240
<v Speaker 4>try something else. And I started rapping a little bit,

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:43.120
<v Speaker 4>and then me and my homies around my neighborhood we

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.280
<v Speaker 4>all started rapping too, like everybody on my street.

0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.839
<v Speaker 2>So it was just making music together. Were just putting

0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:48.280
<v Speaker 2>it together.

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 4>And as I got older, when I got done playing football,

0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:53.280
<v Speaker 4>I was like, I want to do something.

0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, I'm gonna take like a year and focus

0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 5>on rap. And after I focused on rap, it just

0:09:57.400 --> 0:09:58.320
<v Speaker 5>started to take off.

0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.960
<v Speaker 1>And how did your mom feel about this whole idea

0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:01.920
<v Speaker 1>of you getting into rap.

0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:04.560
<v Speaker 2>She was like, I don't really care because I graduated

0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 2>from college.

0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:07.320
<v Speaker 4>So she was like, man, whatever you're gonna do, just

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 4>do it, just do it out one hundred percent. So

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.679
<v Speaker 4>she she supported it. I remember early on, like when

0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 4>I was young, she was scared for me. But I

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.040
<v Speaker 4>could tell she was scared for me rather than you

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:20.920
<v Speaker 4>know what I'm saying, didn't want me to chase my

0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.959
<v Speaker 4>dreams because it just was like, you know what, parents,

0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:29.800
<v Speaker 4>it's a different generation, generational gap, so the what you

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 4>can be was more limited back then, Like you know

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.240
<v Speaker 4>what I'm saying, Like she probably got so many friends

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 4>and people that wanted to be rappers and stuff like that,

0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 4>and went down the rabbit hole.

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:38.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you know what I mean.

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:39.960
<v Speaker 4>You like, you don't think your little son gonna make

0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:41.719
<v Speaker 4>it or your baby gonna make it. When they when

0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:43.080
<v Speaker 4>they're like, oh I want to be a rapper, I

0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:44.800
<v Speaker 4>want to do this, you just think like damn, Like

0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:47.080
<v Speaker 4>a lot of people get discouraged, like day you don't

0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:49.240
<v Speaker 4>want to work hard and stuff like that. Like I

0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 4>had other family members telling me like I don't need

0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 4>to focus on rap, like I need to get a

0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:54.800
<v Speaker 4>job and stuff like that, and it's.

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Like, how did that make you feel? When they would

0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>say that.

0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 4>I've never really been a person to have hurt feelings.

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:03.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, you really get one chance with me? Like

0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:05.440
<v Speaker 4>if you if you ain't saying what I'm liking in

0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 4>the first like five minutes, I'm You're toned out for life.

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll never listen to you again.

0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:12.720
<v Speaker 1>You hear that, y'all. That means when you run up

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:16.199

0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:58.000
<v Speaker 1>in the right direction.

0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:00.560
<v Speaker 4>You gotta learn when to listen, you know what I'm saying.

0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 4>As a man, you gotta learn how to listen.

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:04.200
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm saying.

0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I was like, we eat baby for when you done

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.880
<v Speaker 1>all right? All right? So you moved to Atlanta. What's

0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the inspiration to move from LA to Atlanta?

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:14.600
<v Speaker 4>That's just where music was like the mecca at that time,

0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:16.360
<v Speaker 4>Like everything was coming up out of Atlanta.

0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 2>I figured, like, you know what I'm saying, let me

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 2>see what I can go.

0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 4>Down there and learn. I can go down there network

0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:23.560
<v Speaker 4>maybe you know something to come up of it. So

0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:25.800
<v Speaker 4>I was just chilling down there my home meet. I

0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.200
<v Speaker 4>was my roommate in college in San Diego. He had

0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 4>moved back. He was from there, so I just wanted

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.120
<v Speaker 4>to go stay with Bro. Was staying out there just

0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 4>making music. Every day, working on music. I was getting around.

0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 4>I ended up making someone probably like my best music.

0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 4>Think out there is why I like found like my confidence.

0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 4>Like in Atlanta, you could be whatever you want if

0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:45.160
<v Speaker 4>you like a garbage man, like a Nick Gonna tell

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 4>you I'm the best garbage man ever. Like if you

0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:49.600
<v Speaker 4>like a cameraman, dude, gonna be the best camera man,

0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 4>even if they not.

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Like you know what I'm saying, But.

0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 4>Like the sense of pride that you have about yourself

0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 4>that I found out there, Like just seeing so many.

0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Like people that looked like me that were successful.

0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 4>I had never really seen a lot of successful people

0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.160
<v Speaker 4>like me in all different lanes and attributes. So I

0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 4>think it kind of just motivated me a lot, you

0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 4>know what I'm saying, being out.

0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:06.840
<v Speaker 2>There in that way.

0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:08.840
<v Speaker 1>So then what made you decide to come back home?

0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I had to because of the six month you told

0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:11.920

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.520

<v Speaker 2>day to a bunch of people.

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:31.960
<v Speaker 4>And just like in the in the in like doing that,

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.000
<v Speaker 4>I just happened to start blowing up, blowing up.

0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:37.120

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:39.600

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:41.360
<v Speaker 1>you're moving without management.

0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:41.960

<v Speaker 2>I was moving around doing.

0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:55.760
<v Speaker 4>I probably didn't have to drop a song for like,

0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:57.320
<v Speaker 4>I didn't have to drop no new music for like

<v Speaker 4>three four years.

0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:00.160
<v Speaker 2>So it was just going up off of that it

0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:00.960
<v Speaker 2>for like three years.

0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:03.280

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Don't what you know what? I feel like it's missing something.

0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:16.000
<v Speaker 1>It's missing a sauce.

0:24:17.520 --> 0:24:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Like cheese, like a Kessel. No, but what like a

0:24:22.520 --> 0:24:24.920
<v Speaker 2>Kessel cheese. You gotta have been fired.

0:24:26.080 --> 0:24:26.760
<v Speaker 1>It's really good.

0:24:27.000 --> 0:24:28.359
<v Speaker 5>I would have just went to the guns station and

0:24:28.400 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 5>got some little Kesso cheese real quick.

0:24:30.320 --> 0:24:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm.

0:24:31.800 --> 0:24:35.120
<v Speaker 1>It's like, I don't know. I would have done cool

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:38.080
<v Speaker 1>ranch chips. I would have done nacho.

0:24:38.359 --> 0:24:39.160
<v Speaker 2>He's my favorite.

0:24:39.920 --> 0:24:42.359
<v Speaker 1>The cool ranch with this though. You know what, this

0:24:42.440 --> 0:24:44.760
<v Speaker 1>is good. This is what I'll say for everyone listening.

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:48.360
<v Speaker 1>This is actually very impressively good. I love the meat,

0:24:48.359 --> 0:24:53.840
<v Speaker 1>I love the seasoning. The seasoning was really good. I

0:24:53.960 --> 0:25:03.880
<v Speaker 1>like this just but you need cheese. It was really good.

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:07.320
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes, like when I was young, it might be like

0:25:07.320 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 4>one two slices of cheese left.

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't paying attention. Did you drop the noodles in

0:25:12.720 --> 0:25:16.200
<v Speaker 1>with the meat and then stir it? This ship is good.

0:25:17.440 --> 0:25:19.040
<v Speaker 1>It's like a hood classic.

0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:31.920
<v Speaker 2>You gotta get through it.

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:36.399
<v Speaker 1>This is good. You wish you would have had cheese.

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:41.600
<v Speaker 4>So, ladies, when you when you want to go to Carbone,

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 4>not going to Carbone.

0:25:45.520 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Is hilarious, spoken like a true Now why you keep

0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:53.480
<v Speaker 1>turn that?

0:25:54.280 --> 0:25:54.600
<v Speaker 2>Don't know?

0:25:55.480 --> 0:25:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I watched you answer a date question and I was like.

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:00.280
<v Speaker 2>What was it? What kind of question was it? Oh?

0:26:00.760 --> 0:26:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh, something on your little on your timeline. This girl said,

0:26:10.240 --> 0:26:11.960
<v Speaker 1>was a deal of a perfect date or something?

0:26:12.200 --> 0:26:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Honest to this dude's a narcissists.

0:26:16.040 --> 0:26:17.359
<v Speaker 2>That don't make me a narcissist.

0:26:18.200 --> 0:26:20.160
<v Speaker 1>You've been claiming that the whole time, and then when

0:26:20.200 --> 0:26:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I say it, it doesn't sound good.

0:26:21.640 --> 0:26:24.680
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't that doesn't like justify narcissism.

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Though, okay, as I've spoken like a true nigga.

0:26:29.240 --> 0:26:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Though like a true nigga, I take that. It was

0:26:32.119 --> 0:26:34.120
<v Speaker 2>answer okay.

0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:36.879
<v Speaker 1>So I will say this. You and I are like

0:26:36.920 --> 0:26:40.359
<v Speaker 1>polar opposites in the sense that, like if I even

0:26:40.400 --> 0:26:42.840
<v Speaker 1>sat might think something great is gonna happen, I literally

0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:45.679
<v Speaker 1>call like ten people, and then when it doesn't happen,

0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I totally warn people up from I'm gonna be really

0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:50.800
<v Speaker 1>sad and that's how I live my life. And then

0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:53.960
<v Speaker 1>you're the opposite. A deal can be signed, money could

0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:56.520
<v Speaker 1>be transferred to your bank account, and you're gonna hold

0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:59.280
<v Speaker 1>it in the whole time. So how did you tell

0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:01.080
<v Speaker 1>your mom about the I hate to go back to

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:02.919
<v Speaker 1>your mom, but I always feel like moms are like that.

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:10.359
<v Speaker 4>I told her like a Musico met with regnation. No, actually,

0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 4>I think I called her a while I was in

0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 4>New York. She called me like what you doing. I'm like, oh,

0:27:13.359 --> 0:27:14.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm in New York.

0:27:14.840 --> 0:27:17.000
<v Speaker 1>She like, how do you not stress this woman out?

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but I like that. I actually like that. I

0:28:52.280 --> 0:28:54.720
<v Speaker 1>like that. Like I said, I'm the opposite. I could

0:28:54.760 --> 0:28:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I could win a dollar and you don't know about

0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:59.200

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I'll just be But you be excited on the inside.

0:29:10.360 --> 0:29:12.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, e static, like a little like you know when

0:29:12.200 --> 0:29:15.280
<v Speaker 4>you shake up a soda. Yeah that's me on the inside.

0:29:15.920 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 4>I'd be a sthetic, but on the outside, I'll just

0:29:18.520 --> 0:29:20.800
<v Speaker 4>be like chilling and then it's just like.

0:29:22.720 --> 0:29:24.400
<v Speaker 2>I said, it's high standards for myself.

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:27.800
<v Speaker 5>So it's like, all right, that's cool, but that's not

0:29:27.800 --> 0:29:29.200
<v Speaker 5>really where you want to go, you know what I'm saying.

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:30.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't never want to get too excited. I see

0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:33.560
<v Speaker 4>a lot of people get excited about their accomplishments and

0:29:33.560 --> 0:29:35.720
<v Speaker 4>stuff like that and then get lost in the sauce

0:29:35.720 --> 0:29:38.320
<v Speaker 4>and then like, yo, accomplishments be so lower level, you

0:29:38.400 --> 0:29:40.680
<v Speaker 4>know what I'm saying, And I don't want to It's

0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 4>like it all plays a different role. You know, you

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:44.360
<v Speaker 4>can't downsize anybody's accomplishments.

0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:45.920
<v Speaker 2>But at the same time, like.

0:29:47.600 --> 0:29:50.360
<v Speaker 4>If you're chasing a bigger dream, then you know what

0:29:50.400 --> 0:29:52.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm saying, then you can't be satisfied with the bare.

0:29:52.800 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Minimums, you know what I mean.

0:29:53.920 --> 0:29:56.360
<v Speaker 1>So I noticed with a lot of successful people on

0:29:56.400 --> 0:30:00.280
<v Speaker 1>this show, the ceiling is constantly being moved. You'd be

0:30:00.320 --> 0:30:03.280
<v Speaker 1>surprised how many guests, Rappers included, they have admitted to

0:30:03.360 --> 0:30:06.280
<v Speaker 1>crying on the show. And like, these real intense situations,

0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:09.400
<v Speaker 1>you're very successful, but the glass ceiling just continues to move.

0:30:09.440 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Is that how it is with you?

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, every day.

0:30:11.200 --> 0:30:14.440
<v Speaker 4>Like, it's no such thing as being finished, you know

0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.040
<v Speaker 4>what I mean. It's not no like you should never

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:20.239
<v Speaker 4>there's never enough work done, you know what I mean.

0:30:20.280 --> 0:30:21.760
<v Speaker 2>There's always more work to do every day.

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 5>But that's I'm an athlete though, whole a lot of

0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 5>that comes from me being hot.

0:30:24.360 --> 0:30:27.320
<v Speaker 1>And when you say athlete, football okay, yeah, you look

<v Speaker 1>I was completely off.

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 2>It's because I'll be singing. People be thinking I'm to

0:30:36.320 --> 0:30:36.640
<v Speaker 2>be short.

0:30:36.920 --> 0:30:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Plus a lot of people on the end is

0:30:38.640 --> 0:30:41.680
<v Speaker 1>especially like especially if you're talking singing, they're usually shorter,

0:30:42.120 --> 0:30:43.600

<v Speaker 4>if you thought it was as a female, you always

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:18.520
<v Speaker 4>have one a bad woe in the industry. Yeah, yeah,

0:34:18.600 --> 0:34:24.400
<v Speaker 4>Like I don't really take I don't take this stuff serious.

0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:26.520
<v Speaker 4>Like you got different types.

0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Of people, you know what I mean.

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:31.640
<v Speaker 4>You got people that want to be in the industry.

0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:34.400
<v Speaker 4>You got people that have no choice but to be

0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:36.640
<v Speaker 4>in the industry. And then you got people that don't

0:34:36.680 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 4>really care much for what's going on. Like you could

0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:42.440
<v Speaker 4>tell like who wanna be in the industry cause it's

0:34:42.520 --> 0:34:43.840
<v Speaker 4>like whoa like you.

0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:45.799
<v Speaker 2>They'll do anything. You know what I'm saying.

0:34:45.800 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 4>They do anything, they do everything, they'll it just doesn't

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:51.640
<v Speaker 4>make sense, like you could tell it's not a part

0:34:51.680 --> 0:34:54.080
<v Speaker 4>of their character. Then you got people that's this is

0:34:54.120 --> 0:34:56.359
<v Speaker 4>really their character. They've been acting like this they whole life.

0:34:56.360 --> 0:34:57.840
<v Speaker 4>They was just built for this shit, Like you know

0:34:57.880 --> 0:35:00.160
<v Speaker 4>what I'm saying. They just industry people. And then like

0:35:00.200 --> 0:35:01.680
<v Speaker 4>I feel like I'm more the type of person. It's

0:35:01.719 --> 0:35:04.120
<v Speaker 4>like I'll just be watching this shit like I'd be

0:35:04.160 --> 0:35:04.800
<v Speaker 4>like that's crazy.

0:35:04.840 --> 0:35:05.640
<v Speaker 2>I would never do that.

0:35:05.840 --> 0:35:07.640
<v Speaker 5>Hell no, Like you know what I'm saying, Like I

0:35:07.640 --> 0:35:09.520
<v Speaker 5>don't really be on no industry shit, I would think.

0:35:09.600 --> 0:35:11.680
<v Speaker 1>So, do you feel like your favorite part of your

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:13.640
<v Speaker 1>job is making the music or performing?

0:35:13.840 --> 0:35:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Performing?

0:35:15.280 --> 0:35:18.240
<v Speaker 4>So I feel like it fits in both, Like making

0:35:18.239 --> 0:35:20.879
<v Speaker 4>the music be such an experience for me because it's

0:35:20.920 --> 0:35:23.640
<v Speaker 4>like that's like therapeutic cause I get to just talk

0:35:23.680 --> 0:35:27.040
<v Speaker 4>about awe, like a lot of people don't get to

0:35:27.040 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 4>talk about their feelings and express their feelings. Like a

0:35:29.200 --> 0:35:30.840
<v Speaker 4>lot of people like just naturally have to keep it

0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:32.879
<v Speaker 4>suppressed because they don't have an outlet to be able

0:35:32.920 --> 0:35:35.120
<v Speaker 4>to speak or anybody that'll listen to him. I have

0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:38.120
<v Speaker 4>millions of people that listen to me, you know what

0:35:38.120 --> 0:35:40.319
<v Speaker 4>I mean. So it's like that's like a blessing. So

0:35:40.520 --> 0:35:42.640
<v Speaker 4>just being able to make that music and see like

0:35:42.680 --> 0:35:44.840
<v Speaker 4>where it coincigns with people and like who relates to

0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:47.280
<v Speaker 4>people walking up to me? Like just even this weekend

0:35:47.320 --> 0:35:49.080
<v Speaker 4>being a complex called, so many people walked up.

0:35:49.000 --> 0:35:50.239
<v Speaker 7>To me, like I do, walk up to me like, bro,

0:35:50.280 --> 0:35:53.000
<v Speaker 7>you got me do part times and that's beautiful.

0:35:53.200 --> 0:35:54.600
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not like ride Wave or nothing.

0:35:55.120 --> 0:35:56.440
<v Speaker 4>So it's like, you know what I'm saying, I don't

0:35:56.480 --> 0:35:58.560
<v Speaker 4>make the same type of music he make, but just

0:35:58.640 --> 0:36:00.919
<v Speaker 4>knowing that my art can get somebody through, they can

0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:03.160
<v Speaker 4>can help somebody the same thing is doing for me,

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:06.160
<v Speaker 4>it is doing for somebody else. So h yeah, that's

0:36:06.239 --> 0:36:08.880
<v Speaker 4>like dope. And then performing it. The best part about

0:36:08.920 --> 0:36:10.799
<v Speaker 4>performing it is seeing that they know it.

0:36:11.239 --> 0:36:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like seeing them sing your lyrics kay.

0:36:13.840 --> 0:36:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Word for word. That's like the most warming experience. I'll

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:20.239
<v Speaker 2>get caught looking at people singing oh for real.

0:36:20.400 --> 0:36:22.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Like I didn't like sometimes I gotta wear glasses

0:36:22.600 --> 0:36:24.839
<v Speaker 4>because like I'll be too into it, Like I'm like, yeah,

0:36:24.920 --> 0:36:27.040
<v Speaker 4>like I would like I'm a concert goer like I

0:36:27.080 --> 0:36:29.319
<v Speaker 4>love music, like I seen music like Hello out all

0:36:29.400 --> 0:36:30.040
<v Speaker 4>day in the house and.

0:36:30.040 --> 0:36:32.520
<v Speaker 2>Stuff like that. So it's like I'll be when I'm

0:36:32.520 --> 0:36:34.320
<v Speaker 2>locked in with you. I'm locked in with you, you know

0:36:34.360 --> 0:36:34.920
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying.

0:36:35.080 --> 0:36:37.400
<v Speaker 1>So your last ep was make the West grade again,

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:39.799

0:36:39.760 --> 0:36:43.360
<v Speaker 2>West grade again. It made the worst grade again.

0:36:44.520 --> 0:36:49.400
<v Speaker 1>So, uh, you are one of the top LA artists

<v Speaker 2>I think I'm a little bit more comfortable.

0:37:11.280 --> 0:37:13.960
<v Speaker 4>Like I'm the type of person that i'd be scared

0:37:14.000 --> 0:37:19.520
