Speaker 2: of your like, uh, that's like a that's like one
Speaker 2: of them ones in the club out here bro, like
Speaker 2: on the West Coast or.
Speaker 1: They messed with that for sure, that's happened every day.
Speaker 2: But yeah, man, you got this new project that just dropped.
Speaker 2: I wanted to ask you, like, I feel like you've
Speaker 2: been kind of like one of the faces of the
Speaker 2: last like five or six years of like la hip
Speaker 2: hop in terms of just like the new energy that's
Speaker 2: been happening. I feel like guys like yourself, Rouchie Hazy Chike.
Speaker 2: But with what's happened with like this Kendrick a moment,
Speaker 2: I feel like there's a lot more attention being paid
Speaker 2: to LA artists. Are you feeling that as well?
Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, I say that just because of the fact
Speaker 1: he basically can't a poach. It like catapulted us to
Speaker 1: the top. It ain't really just him because it's the
Speaker 1: sound for sure me, So yeah, I fuck with that,
Speaker 1: you know everything. Yeah, I feel like it's just putting
Speaker 1: more eyes on you feel me the West Coast sound
Speaker 1: and all that.
Speaker 2: Boom. Yeah, I think too like that. It's helpful that
Speaker 2: like uh not like us as like a real West
Speaker 2: Coast bop, you know what I'm say? For sure? What
Speaker 2: was for you man? This new album? Obviously it's hot
Speaker 2: as fuck in LA right now? Was that was that
Speaker 2: kind of like the intention like making the soundtrack for
Speaker 2: the summer?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure. And when you think of one take,
Speaker 1: you're gonna automatically think you fear me summertime or you
Speaker 1: fee me when it's time to party. So yeah, that
Speaker 1: was really the intentions behind that. Then the name just
Speaker 1: came from where I'm from. Summer and Compton. Yeah mean,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sure you all we come.
Speaker 2: We were just in comptent with the Compton Cowboys, Randy
Speaker 2: saving those guys. Yeah, I had no idea that that
Speaker 2: was there. Oh yeah, that should creates like a whole
Speaker 2: right ranch over there like that, even just that neighborhoods
Speaker 2: like hell of people with horses over there. Man. Yeah,
Speaker 2: did you ever go over there as a kid or anything?
Speaker 1: Uh not just specifically go to the ranch, but like
Speaker 1: on that street. I mean every if everybody know about

Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. You got some dope features on the
Speaker 2: album Shot to the hommy X for Ralphie, the plugs

Speaker 1: the one Take homies, oh and John Matt back from
Speaker 1: the Bay one, take Kwan and want to take ts
Speaker 1: He got them on a couple of joints on there.
Speaker 2: Yes, you have to. I feel like John Mac a
Speaker 2: lot more people should be talking about what he's doing
Speaker 2: out of the bay.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, brogo crazy, y'all have to get one in
Speaker 1: with him for sure.
Speaker 2: For sure, Is there anybody besides your crew that you're
Speaker 2: like just a fan of? Like I have to say,
Speaker 2: five years ago, you were kind of a new up
Speaker 2: and coming l A guy. Is there anybody that you're
Speaker 2: just tapped in with us on the come up? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Some people. H It's a dude named wyan Ness Flocko.
Speaker 1: Y'all gotta tap in with him and ship who else?
Speaker 1: It's a lot of motherfuckers. Oh, my cousin Streets he
Speaker 1: coming soon, y'all gotta tap in with that. He just
Speaker 1: dropped his first visual and single called Bag of Gems.
Speaker 1: Then we got my other good people's mns Cam. That's
Speaker 1: my cousin too. He coming to that from Compton to
Speaker 1: be on the lookout.
Speaker 2: Something about the water and content just produces like the
Speaker 2: best rappers.
Speaker 1: And both of the people I just name was on
Speaker 1: the project on the song to Gondo.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, what's your favorite song on the album?
Speaker 1: Uh? I don't know, kind of probably I would say
Speaker 1: that one, either the Gondo or Torging in the Function
Speaker 1: because they both like different vibes. You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: The Torging and the Function is a sample to a
Speaker 1: Snoop Dogg sexual seduction.
Speaker 2: So that's a great song to sample. You know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying, So, did you turn sex sensual seduction into
Speaker 2: a fucking no?
Speaker 1: It's not No, it's not no super ratchet. I just
Speaker 1: think I don't know. It's like it is like a
Speaker 1: more West Coast beat, but I say it's like a
Speaker 1: universal beat because of that sample. You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Are you? Are you independent? Obviously? Like what's it like
Speaker 2: clearing the Snoop dog record? You just throw it out
Speaker 2: there and hope, yeah, that.
Speaker 1: Bitch out there and hope they don't smet have it.
Speaker 1: It's damn mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like and if it gets big enough that's
Speaker 2: exactly exact, then you figure it out. Figure it out
Speaker 2: from there for sure. For sure. That's smart. Man, talk
Speaker 2: to me man, Like for you, I feel like you
Speaker 2: have never really necessarily been wrapped up in a lot
Speaker 2: of like the negative. I feel like we always get
Speaker 2: negative stereotypes in LA when the artists when it comes
Speaker 2: to like politics, and because.
Speaker 1: That's how everybody get their promo, they not posting your
Speaker 1: music for real.
Speaker 2: Right, I feel like though you guys have like I
Speaker 2: feel like when I think of like yourself and chicken
Speaker 2: and just your your generation. Like it was more about
Speaker 2: like the music and like kind of moving together as
Speaker 2: opposed to shit.
Speaker 1: I just feel like it was a different time type
Speaker 1: of shit, you feel me? It wasn't a lot of
Speaker 1: it was like new. It was all new, right, you
Speaker 1: feel me? So shit changed? Do you feel like?
Speaker 2: I was just talking with MC Magic, who's a Mexican
Speaker 2: artist from Arizona, and he was talking about just like
Speaker 2: Mexican hip hop artists in general. He's like, Yo, it
Speaker 2: sucks because a lot of times the most promo these
Speaker 2: guys get is they go on podcasts'll say like hell
Speaker 2: and negative ship and they stir up drama.
Speaker 1: Do you feel you got to think it's clickbait, it's
Speaker 1: all titles and all that that that'd be the best promo.
Speaker 1: That just was never my thing. My sugar can go
Speaker 1: up regardless, right.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like that's the thing that artists kind
Speaker 2: of depend on nowadays?
Speaker 1: Yeah? For sure. Yeah, And you gotta think a lot
Speaker 1: of motherfuckers don't really be like that in the boot,
Speaker 1: so they'd be running out of ship to say you
Speaker 1: gotta do something. I don't blame you even trying to
Speaker 1: get your money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like just let's go stir some ship up and
Speaker 2: get some some real views. Yeah no, that's real man. Uh.
Speaker 2: How like for you, man, how often are you? Are
Speaker 2: you just like a studio rat? Are you living in the.
Speaker 1: Studio or you Yeah, I'll be recording myself and ship,
Speaker 1: so I being that just like every day, but ship
Speaker 1: at home, I'd be at the studio.
Speaker 2: So I don't know if you had like the little
Speaker 2: Scarlet at the crib.
Speaker 1: You know, no, I really need that type of setup though.
Speaker 1: I feel like that'd be way way more easier because
Speaker 1: you don't got to know, you don't gotta go nowhere
Speaker 1: type ship.
Speaker 2: Like yeah, blast whole ship is like Blast has the
Speaker 2: like four hundred dollars studio setup.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all you really need.
Speaker 2: It's at his house.
Speaker 1: If you got a motherfucker knowing how to make that ship, how.
Speaker 2: You know he's chosen and was recorded on one hundred
Speaker 2: dollars mic and on a scarlet two channel interface.
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, yeah, the studio I'm in shit, it's
Speaker 1: just a room, the mic right there by you. I
Speaker 1: didn't even know booth.
Speaker 2: Were you always recording yourself as it something you kind
Speaker 2: of learned how to do over time.
Speaker 1: No, I learned over time, but I've been knew what
Speaker 1: was going on, but I just said, fuck, it is
Speaker 1: just because it kind of I don't know, it's just
Speaker 1: better because I feel like sometimes you feel me, even
Speaker 1: with the engineers and shit, maybe they get impatient and
Speaker 1: all that, but when it's just you, you feel me,
Speaker 1: it's just like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you feel like you can create without.
Speaker 1: Worrying about worrying about nothing.
Speaker 2: Like if yoo, if I want to redo this line,
Speaker 2: I don't even if subconsciously you think you're bothering the engineer.
Speaker 1: Exactly or some shit like that, you just you feel me,
Speaker 1: you on your own timing, and I don't know, it's
Speaker 1: just it's just really real, like kind of like just smooth.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel like the one thing artists should always
Speaker 2: try to do is figure out how to do everything themselves,
Speaker 2: even if it's just to like a okay degree. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean that way the worst case scenario if you
Speaker 2: need to hop on photoshop.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I really just learned though from just watching you.
Speaker 2: Know what I'm saying, Like recording yourself that's a big expense.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, and then like being as I'm sure for
Speaker 2: you being independent fully. Now it's like, is you got
Speaker 2: to handle all of it? You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yeah, yeah that shit, That shit ain't really
Speaker 1: nothing though. It's just really the only thing I need
Speaker 1: is like more promo, bro. All the other shit is
Speaker 1: like you feel me, But that's it's gonna get handled.
Speaker 1: Shout out ty Rain should be doing her thing.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say moving independently because you were on
Speaker 2: what you on a major for a second?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was with Atlantic yeah for two projects.
Speaker 2: So like, what has been the big difference for you
Speaker 2: now handling shit on your own as opposed to when
Speaker 2: you were in the Atlantic system.
Speaker 1: I go up more when I'm on my own.
Speaker 2: So you think it was a negative to be on Atlantic, No.
Speaker 1: It's just a slower process you got. I think when
Speaker 1: I came out, I came off. I came out off
Speaker 1: of consistency and like you feel me back to back
Speaker 1: to back to back in your face, and it's good,
Speaker 1: good content, you know what I'm saying, Good music. So
Speaker 1: with the label thing is everything just like way slower.
Speaker 1: The process. You have to get lower.
Speaker 2: You have to get green lights exactly.
Speaker 1: You gotta get stuff clear, and it ain't even like
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. That's why I said it wasn't
Speaker 1: a bad thing, because it's just the business side, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And it's like, uh with the
Speaker 1: independence ship though, like I'm still on the business shit,
Speaker 1: Like everybody get paid, from the cover art to the
Speaker 1: producers getting the splits on a Uh. That's why you
Speaker 1: ain't never seen no producer come out take this is it?
Speaker 1: Because everybody get paid?
Speaker 2: Are you dropping through district Kid?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yes. I always tell people like, if you're really independent
Speaker 2: and you're not cashing on producers, that's the easiest way
Speaker 2: because you can just splits. You can just cut people
Speaker 2: in on the record the record.
Speaker 1: And that's working together, you know what I'm saying. For sure,
Speaker 1: But a lot of people, a lot of artists, because
Speaker 1: you got to think producers be getting mad. A lot
Speaker 1: of artists don't even be knowing about that. They just
Speaker 1: throwing their ship up on there. Because you got to think,
Speaker 1: I didn't even know about this stroke kid until ship
Speaker 1: already had millions and millions of streams on soundclouds. So right,
Speaker 1: you just should just a process.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's easier too, because then like those producers will
Speaker 2: push the funk out.
Speaker 1: Of like exactly if they're getting paid from it, exactly
Speaker 1: works out for everybody. Yeah, but some people be different though,
Speaker 1: Like I had a couple of producers on the thing
Speaker 1: on the project, they just rather get the h.
Speaker 2: And you just took care of him. There you go. Yeah,
Speaker 2: problem is some of the producers, Man, be fucking tripping dog.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't get that. You'll be I
Speaker 1: rather be getting the streaming bread for sure, because it's forever.
Speaker 2: Exactly have you been paying attention at all to what
Speaker 2: like Russell's doing in the Bay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I fuck with his movement and
Speaker 1: all that I followed on the ground.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been doing like if like someone shoots a
Speaker 2: video or they do like hell cut people in ye'ah.
Speaker 1: Just seen like Juvenile was on the went to his
Speaker 1: little his backyard function type thing. That shit was hard.
Speaker 2: Did you see Richie Rich from the Bay break his
Speaker 2: knee on stage there? Nah?
Speaker 1: So Richie Rich th g he really broke his knee
Speaker 1: for it.
Speaker 2: So yeah, he was jumping up and down, snapped his
Speaker 2: knee and freestyle the whole time. So he was freestyling
Speaker 2: on the up knee and he's like, I just snapped
Speaker 2: my tippy. Look I need help someone get in there.
Speaker 2: Like the ship was crazy and everyone's just dancing around
Speaker 2: him and he's like I'm like, no, I'm not lying snapped,
Speaker 2: but he's rapping the whole time. Like I was like, damn,
Speaker 2: you gotta go to the pergola. That'shit crazy. He's different
Speaker 2: for that, Like somebody in Lax should try to do
Speaker 2: some shit like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be dope. But sit you just gotta
Speaker 1: I don't know, you gotta just you gotta find the
Speaker 1: right location and the right vibe.
Speaker 2: Gotta be gotta be right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta be secured up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's got Yeah, it's got to kind of
Speaker 2: be like out the way low key.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, because you gotta think once something
Speaker 1: get popular and it's close enough for everybody everyone to.
Speaker 2: You almost got to move it every time.
Speaker 1: That'll be see, that'll be a thing if you have
Speaker 1: working with people and you could just pick up and move.
Speaker 1: We in this city today, were in that city today,
Speaker 1: that'd be hard.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I really feel like like Santa Clarita is the
Speaker 2: spot because who really wants to drive all the way
Speaker 2: to Santa Clarita.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a little mission you wanted.
Speaker 2: You gotta you gotta want it to be.
Speaker 1: A mission's going up though, They're gonna go for sure.
Speaker 2: That's it's true. That is true.
Speaker 1: Man, fast, no gas and everything pulling up.
Speaker 2: That's a hell of a number to Santa Clara, Compton
Speaker 2: to Santa Clarita, that's one hundred and ten dollars at least.
Speaker 1: They coming though, Yeah, for sure, go figure it out.
Speaker 2: Who do you got on your Compton Mount Rushmore man.
Speaker 1: Ship? No, that's gonna crazy. Let me see count around restaurant.
Speaker 1: I'm included.
Speaker 2: If you'd like to include yourself, I wouldn't say you
Speaker 2: belong on that, but you know.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go me Okay, I'm gonna go. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna just go out of one. Take yourself.
Speaker 2: This is crazy. This is the city that Kendrick Lamarin,
Speaker 2: doctor Dre came from. What are we talking about?
Speaker 1: What are we talking about? Elite your crew out of there?
Speaker 1: All right? All right, So I go Ken Dack, Doctor
Speaker 1: d Roddy Rich and y G.
Speaker 2: I respect the four. Yeah, I would say that those
Speaker 2: would probably be my four. I might put the game
Speaker 2: in that though.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, no, not like yeah, you.
Speaker 2: Probably the game Dre and Kendrick.
Speaker 1: Roddy went Diamond out of the game for sure. For sure,
Speaker 1: I'm keeping Roddy.
Speaker 2: He's the sick well, he's the fifth man, and I
Speaker 2: think he's right on the bench just waiting to jump
Speaker 2: in the game. Hey man, it would be the game
Speaker 2: of Roddy. But I think YG is solidified.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, but it's just that that But you gotta
Speaker 1: understand that what you gotta think down to l A
Speaker 1: like for sure though, But I'm saying just that, well,
Speaker 1: did you just had to put to put a fifth
Speaker 1: person in? Because coming coming Diamond out the gate is
Speaker 1: like over crazy, you see what I'm saying. Sure, I
Speaker 1: don't give a damn who you is because you gotta
Speaker 1: think that's like a small box of people, for sure,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So yeah, we just had
Speaker 1: to go five.
Speaker 2: That's a that's a great five. And then obviously you're five,
Speaker 2: which is just you and your your crew. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: trying to think, is there anyone forgetting I hope not
Speaker 2: ship not Gorilla Black, Gorilla Black, that guy I heard
Speaker 2: it bro before this don't called confident. That was pretty Hard.
Speaker 2: Wait wait wait, wait wait wait, DJ Quick.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we tripped out.
Speaker 2: God include Quick in that comment. Yeah, honestly, honestly, my four,
Speaker 2: my four would be Quick, Yg, Doctor Dre, and Kendrick.
Speaker 2: I would leave the game in Rody off if I
Speaker 2: had to pick four.
Speaker 1: You just said the game did all this ship.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I forgot about DJ Quick. Jesus, Honestly,
Speaker 2: we probably should take Dre off because Dre is more
Speaker 2: like a too. What you trying to say, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: Dre's like a producer. Dre's like the architect, so he
Speaker 2: obviously he built the mountain. There's no Mount Rushmore without him.
Speaker 2: He's a He's an architect that saw you throw game
Speaker 2: in there. You got throw game in there, all right?
Speaker 1: We could just rock like that shot. I like that's fair. Yeah.
Speaker 1: DJ Quick though, big apologies on me, DJ Quick and
Speaker 1: sugar Free. That's the only people I liked it before,
Speaker 1: Like it was like the jerking era and shit, like
Speaker 1: he used to be listening to the ship and I
Speaker 1: didn't even know what they was talking about.
Speaker 2: Sugar Free has one of the most I always say this,
Speaker 2: like we just talked about that with Roddy Rax I
Speaker 2: was like, Yo, there's nobody who's ever sounded like sugar Free,
Speaker 2: and I don't think anybody ever will.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't even imitate that.
Speaker 2: Like the way he raps like it's so like it's
Speaker 2: so in a pocket.
Speaker 1: It's like.
Speaker 2: Good unorthan, it's so insane. Like I just heard he
Speaker 2: did a song with Roddy racks from the pointing like
Speaker 2: he was snapping, but he was snapping.
Speaker 1: That's the thing too. Look when I did he was
Speaker 1: on my album before, a couple two albums, Ago Calmed
Speaker 1: and Globetrotter, so Bro, I sent them two songs to
Speaker 1: pick out either one type shit Bro ended up doing
Speaker 1: both of them. Bitches Bro, When I tell you, he
Speaker 1: was talking like when I first ever heard sugar Free
Speaker 1: and thought it was hard. Yes, it's still rapping the
Speaker 1: same way.
Speaker 2: That's crazy and like he's one of them dudes. The
Speaker 2: way he raps like you almost like gotta listen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta, you gotta like you gotta you gotta
Speaker 1: keep playing it back, you gotta keep knowing byang on Cap,
Speaker 1: I never did that.
Speaker 2: Befreak it on the job at the sperm Bank.

Speaker 1: catch it like quick, no him, you guys and ship bro,
Speaker 1: he was he sent the verse back, Bro, I kepveryone
Speaker 1: in that bitch. He was saying some ship.
Speaker 2: Sugar Free is a fucking legend. I feel like, uh,
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what it is about
Speaker 2: sugar Free. For whatever reason, he just don't get like
Speaker 2: love like nationally when we think about La and the
Speaker 2: West Coast.
Speaker 1: Does he just doing him?
Speaker 2: Yeah? He's an alien and I think quicks in the
Speaker 2: same And.
Speaker 1: You gotta think what you what you just asked me
Speaker 1: to begin in this ship with the drama and all
Speaker 1: the ship. You don't see she was not doing no
Speaker 1: click bait ship and all that.
Speaker 2: And so back in the day, he wasn't on that game.
Speaker 1: He was on the pimp and hit exactly I say,
Speaker 1: doing him.
Speaker 2: Did you meet trug Free?
Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, I met him one time.
Speaker 2: I met him in Vegas, not when we did this
Speaker 2: song though, why I lived in Vegas And uh he
Speaker 2: was at the Planet Hollywood Hotel walking a chick with
Speaker 2: a leash on her neck like she was a dog.
Speaker 1: And I was like, doing him, bro.
Speaker 2: But I literally was like, I literally was like, this
Speaker 2: is all I ever hoped to happen if I met
Speaker 2: sugar Free. This shit real, Like this is exactly how
Speaker 2: it'd be, Like, you know, it's like this is this
Speaker 2: is this is the man I listened to as a kid.
Speaker 2: He has a girl on a leash in the middle
Speaker 2: of a fucking Vegas casino. This is crazy. It might

Speaker 2: song that's unreleased and it's old to you and you
Speaker 2: get tired of us. You don't put it out, but it's.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's when you just start previewing it, throw
Speaker 1: it up on TikTok or something. I feel like that,
Speaker 1: and you gotta think. You gotta when you're around people,
Speaker 1: you gotta just play music like unexpectedly and just.
Speaker 2: See what they feel like. Because it might be old
Speaker 2: to you.
