47
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,040

50
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,840

53
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: did that once and he asked me what was out

54
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: with you? He did, I must have been drunk and

55
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: it must that didn't have nothing. But but I had to, uh,

56
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: you know, I had to just get my together and

57
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: go back to work. You know, I just was, I

58
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: just you know, I was. I was being dumb and

59
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: you were pretty young and you had a great wild

60
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: time your friends around you and everything. Sometimes you got

61
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: to refocus, exactly, And I think I think for me

62
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: it was a thing where like I just didn't feel

63
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: like I thought it was my right, which it is,

64
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: but I thought it was like my right as a

65
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: human to say I didn't want to do anything. So

66
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: like I was like, I don't feel like toyn I

67
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: don't feel like an album out. Was it that later?

68
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: Was it? Was it the la life? Well, there's a

69
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: lot of space out there, so you know, I could

70
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: I had, I could disappear, and I was just kind

71
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: of just making a lot of music and I just

72
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: kind of got comfortable in this zone of like, I'm

73
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: not gonna like, I don't need to bring any money in.

74
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: I got money, You had money, so you just wanted

75
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: to record, right, just record and just have fun with it.

76
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: And then I realized that that I didn't put anything out,

77
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: and like and then I ran out of money, you

78
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Scott storched myself and then, uh, hell,

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: how to go bro? I'm Jewish? Come on, you know

80
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: I got my money talks, I'm good, I got investments.

81
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: Um no. But so I just decided it was time

82
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: to come back. Did anything inspire you? Was it like

83
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: a day that you were listening to something and you

84
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: were like, you know what, I gotta get back in there.

85
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: I mean, like, you know, I think, uh. At first,

86
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: when I signed to a major, it was a little

87
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: scary for me because I was like, oh, you know,

88
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: like what if all my freedom's gone? Because he were

89
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: kind of against that world? Would you do that? I mistake?

90
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: You said, like you that's what you're kind of claim

91
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: to fame. But that independent audi and see that I

92
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: was one of this, you know, because it was it's

93
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: it's it's that time and and just like I can

94
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: do more from this position, not just for me, but

95
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: for those around me, and I can create, um, like

96
00:04:54,600 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: a real franchise and uh um yeah I'm me. I

97
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: was like, you know, it was a little scary. You

98
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: see that that contract is so thick, bro, but I'm

99
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 1: sure it with ten million reasons why. But you know,

100
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: I don't do it for the money. I do it

101
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: for the art. How much did Rostrom get? Did you

102
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: have to give them anything? No, it wasn't like that. No,

103
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: they've got a lot of money from the work we

104
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: did together. And then you've announced that you're going on

105
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,440

00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: been joking around. But I was like, Yo, I blew it.

154
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: I messed up man. He said yes, he said no, no,

155
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: he said he said there's no ups in hip hop. Bro.

156
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, he no, hard, but not for

157
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it was cool, but

158
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: I definitely blew a dope opportunity. Jay was definitely backstage. Definitely.

159
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: Jay was definitely like, he didn't invite you to the

160
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: title meeting after that. Nah. Nah, I've I've I've never

161
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: spoken to him. I've I've known. I know that he's

162
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: heard some stuff and liked it. I've known that. Uh,

163
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just start making you know what I'm saying.

164
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: I know he bumpd my album on the regular. Nah,

165
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: but uh no, I never I never got dropped up

166
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: with him. It's kind of good you felt back the

167
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: last couple of years because it was kind of hard

168
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: on white rappers in hip hop. Dude, that was it

169
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: was not it was not not type for white nig

170
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: got it bad. Yeah, I mean it's you know, it's

171
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: a it's a touchy subject, especially with everything else going

172
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: on in the world. I mean, it's like, who looks

173
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: like white rappers don't look like the tightest people when

174
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: there's all these horrible things going on the world. You

175
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, it doesn't look tight. Um, And

176
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: I wasn't like a planned thing. It definitely wasn't like

177
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: a like I need to get back man, like that

178
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: definitely wasn't you know. That was like, do you ever

179
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: feel the need to speak out on social issues because

180
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: you are part of hip hop? Right, and people feel like, oh,

181
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: if you know you're part of hip hoop, you should

182
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: speak out on what's going on with black people. Um oh,

183
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: I mean definitely with certain things. I mean, I think

184
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: there's a time when I'm when I'm younger nineteen eighteen,

185
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty twenty one, right, But I'm saying this is like,

186
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: up until now, I didn't really speak on race. I

187
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: didn't really speak on these issues just because my whole

188
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: idea was like, uh, I'm probably just scared of it, really,

189
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: but my whole idea was like, you know, I just

190
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: want to make music. I just want to make music.

191
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: And now I kind of like, like it did like

192
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: a bunch of interviews on like white rappers and hip

193
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: hop and stuff like that. It's like you can't be

194
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: uncomfortable to talk about it. You can't be uncomfortable with

195
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: you white exactly exactly your experience in every interview. Yeah,

196
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: but I mean, yeah, you know, I'll be annoying DC. Oh,

197
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: you're my favorite white guy. But I mean I think,

198
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: you know, but that's fine, and I think I think

199
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: my favorite black guy. I don't know, you're definitely not

200
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: definitely not you, like my third favorite light skame b

201
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: and as the longest light skinned people I know, so

202
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: that you but no, it's like uh um yeah. I

203
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: think at the time, as as someone in the in

204
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: the public and being young and like being a white

205
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: rapper is uh, that always comes with it. You're like,

206
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: I just want to be a rapper man, but like

207
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: in reality, it's like whatever, I don't want to just

208
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: be considered a female rapper, right. Is that one of

209
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: the reasons you signed to a major because it was

210
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, Mcamore, NIGGI blew up with

211
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: radio records and I remember talking to you once and

212
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: you was like you wanted to get radio records now,

213
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: and I was like why, Yeah, I know, I mean

214
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: that wasn't uh, that didn't happen. I mean, that wasn't

215
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: like a reason for I think I just wanted to see,

216
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: like I never had a real budget to do anything,

217
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: you know, like I've never you were investing yourself basically

218
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: right now. I mean like like you know, like Rosham

219
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: definitely had put money down and and you used to

220
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: be the thing where if like if Rosham didn't want

221
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: to pay for it, I paid for it, like I

222
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: didn't care and like, um, but like just really because

223
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: they're an independent company, so I didn't really have a

224
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: big budget to work with sopendent. Yeah, but I mean,

225
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: you know, hey, you're just not as I'm not, you know,

226
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: and you know what I'm saying. There's there's no there's

227
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: tears of rappers, and it's like Maclamore Macmiller. Everyone knows it.

228
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 1: I'm trash. He's nice, like you know what I mean,

229
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: Like I don't know how to me know me, you know,

230
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: it's for real, I don't know how to I don't

231
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: have the metaphors that he has. Everyone knows true. You know,

232
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: his name was supposed to be Macalmiller. Yeah, like you

233
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: know what, No, I didn't hear that. Yeah, he actually

234
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: and and and I told I told him, I was like, yo, bro,

Speaker 1: like you got my name and he just slapped it

236
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: out of me. And I was like, my father, bro,

237
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: and I said, you know, I like you know, so

238
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: I don't really be saying anything bad about him. Sorry, bro.

239
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: So he was going to expose you too. He was like, Yo,

Speaker 1: who were like the first half of the record um

253
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: is about having grandchildren and and it's really not like

254
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: the heavy message behind the record. It's just kind of

255
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: a little like stupid double on terms or where the

256
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: first half is about grandchildren and then the second half

258
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: like not that tight. I mean I think that crazy

259
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: of like whoa, but like it's just my main thing

260
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: is I just wanted to come back with something that

261
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: was like confident and and like some fun. There's nothing

262
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: wrong being fun. There's nothing wrong with feeling yourself. And

263
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: that's the headspace I wanted to get into before I

264
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: came back. I didn't want to come back depressed. Did

265
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 1: Donald Trump ever sue you? No, he never did. I

266
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: don't think he really had a case, but he's been

267
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: sued for everything. But that's what I'm saying. That's like,

268
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: I gotta be careful because I got like, you know,

269
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 1: I can't do I gets suped for everything. Yeah, that

270
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: has to be discouraging. It feels like you, in particular

273
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,000

00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: the thing is that was the other thing though, is

303
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: that is I started to see that that was like

304
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: that was my thing, you know, like like that's what

305
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: I was being what people were knowing me for. It

306
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: was like, oh, Mac Miller smacked white boy, like the

307
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: dude that's always on drugs, and I was like, that's

308
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: not tight, you know what I mean? Like, especially like

309
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: I got a young fans like I'm not I don't

310
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: want to I don't want to act like that. That's

311
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: it's cool. And then it's just a pointing to your

312
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: fans when you go away for such a long period

313
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: of time and they're like, dude, what is it? Yeah,

314
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: and it's like we love you. What are you? You

316
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I gonna say why are you hiding? Hiding?

317
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: But I stopped but uh but no, but um but

318
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: like you know, like a lot of a lot of

319
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: a lot of my friends that that make music and

320
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: also did a lot of drugs. If you know, quit

321
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: doing drugs, you know. I mean I think I think

322
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: you just get to a point where you're just like, okay,

323
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: this is just this is I'm doing too much to

324
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: write music though, was you Was that part of your

325
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: writing process back then? No? No, yeah, I used drugs

326
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: to do everything. Brush my teeth you know, still sound

327
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 1: the same, It still sound good. Because some people need

328
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: that for their lyrics. No, I mean I think I

329
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: think uh no, I mean I don't think I need it.

330
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: I think it's more about what headspace you're in. But

331
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: like I said, it was a like I have a

332
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: lot of people around me to care about me. What

333
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: did your mom say to you? Yeah, I mean she didn't.

334
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: I mean she didn't know. And then I hit her

335
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: one time and I was like, just told her the

336
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: truth because I'm crying. No, probably maybe a little cry

337
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: of the type call not like the ones we have.

338
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: It was different. No, it was like no, I mean

339
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: I think I just kind of broke it down for everyone.

340
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: And then after I broke it down for everyone, like

341
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: it made it like it makes it that much more

342
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: difficult to come back because everyone's like, you're all right,

343
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, yeah, man, I'm fine. That's you know,

344
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: like that for a while though, Yeah, but I'm not.

345
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,240

353
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,000

354
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 1: this is progress. This is progress. But I'm just what

355
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: about your MTV show? Did you lose that? I didn't

356
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: lose it. I quit it because because it was time

357
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: to make room for Tiger. Everyone knows that they was

358
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: trying to get him to get White Rabb. I'm like, no,

360
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: it to Tiger. But no, like is having all this

361
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 1: controversy with people thinking that he sleeps with transgenders. Why

362
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: I opened up, back up, I gotta ask you, have

363
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 1: you ever been about the show show? Okay, well no,

364
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,879

365
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: transgender not even almost, not even almost. O I know,

366
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,800

367
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 1: I didn't lose it. Um. I wanted to not go

368
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: down as a reality TV star. And I think that

369
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: it was like, that's such a big platform that like

370
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: that moves, it's at a rapid pace and it's on

371
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: repeat all the time, that people are always seeing you there.

372
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 1: That like I wanted to like step back and be like,

373
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: let me make sure the music stands front. And also

374
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: it was like my schedule was ridiculous. I would be

375
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: on tour, come back, have two days off, and I'd

376
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: be shooting both those days and I was like, this

377
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,679
Speaker 1: is this is too much. That's supposed to be your

378
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: day off and right, and it was doing great too.

379
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: It was one of your own big one. You don't

380
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: help your people though, because I'm sure your people will.

381

Speaker 1: They were they were halfway stars on this. Oh yeah,

382
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,119

00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 1: no subliminals talked away real deep but nothing to anyone wants.

453
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: Kind of wrong with asking questions though, man, especially if

454
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: you look at for answers. No, for sure, for sure.

455
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: But I mean I think I think that that there's

456
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: a time and a place for every different kind of

457
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: identity in music, you know, I think that they're that that, Uh,

458
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: it's okay for artists to to jump around and and

459
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: not always be so consistent with the identity they carry

460
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: um in their music because humans are way more complex

461
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 1: than that. Absolutely, you're not You're not always this dude,

462
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: you know, like like you even take like Kendrick Kendrick

463
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: just put out that for free video, right and everyone's like, oh,

464
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: Kendrick has a sense of humor. It's like, yeah, Kendricks, SA,

465
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,239
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Like and it's like and

466
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 1: so it like for me, it's like, uh, like I

467
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: want to make sure I cover all the all the

468
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: all the different identities that come with being a human.

469
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: I think the key to that is just being yourself.

470
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 1: That's that's something I think POC did so well. You know,

471
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: even guys like nah, they oh, they're they're hypocrisis. One

472
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 1: minute they're talking about this, the next minute they're talking

473
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: about that. But no, they're just human exactly. And that's

474
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: that's such Like, that's like my main focus is like

475
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: just keeping it real myself and like and talking about

476
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: what I feel, because you see, you can go back

477
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: and you see yourself going through this wild emotional journey.

478
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: You know, you see yourself with moments of like, damn,

479
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: I was fool of self doubt there, and then damn

480
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: I was really feeling myself right there, and and there's

481
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: a place for all of that, you know, and you

482
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: don't have to you don't have to hide any part

483
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: of yourself. Um. And I think in music, a lot

484
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: of times people get tied up in in the in

485
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: the the wrestling aspect of it, you know, like like

486
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 1: the theme music and walking in and this is my

487
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: character and and I'm this guy, and it's like, nah, man,

488
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: you there's no way you're that every day in your life.

489
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: There's no way did you do you run. I think

490
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: you run from comparisons, like I remember MTV though we

491
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: want you to be the new Rob did right right?

492
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: I know what I'm saying, like, do you gotta understand

493
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 1: for someone who's for a kid who's trying to find

494
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 1: his identity, when someone is telling you you're the new this,

495
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: You're automatically gonna be offended. I'm saying, you're gonna be like,

496
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm not the new Rob, Dude, I'm the first Matt Miller.

497
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: I'm not the new eminem On, the first Mate Miller,

498
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: Like you're always gonna do that, but now it's like, man, whatever,

499
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm not like, I'm not tribbling. It's everything is about

500
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: if you're comfortable with self. All that is like people

501
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: can say whatever. So I did get comfortable with self

502
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: real quick. When you're scared of Kendrick's control. Verse scared,

503
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 1: no bro old, But no, no, no, not at all,

504
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: not at all. I was actually you know what I'm saying, like,

505
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: like no, it was so wild. How how I think

506
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: even he was surprised with how how much, how big

507
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: that was? Um, but nah, I would put you. He

508
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: mentioned you, so he put you right into that class

509
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: of like new New greats. Right, But but I'm saying, like,

510
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 1: you know whatever, like as he should? You know, um,

511
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: and like it was tight because Kendricks someone did I

512
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: look up to as an artist and and and it's

513
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: in respect as an artist, but like as he should,

514
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: I'm not like I'm not like I with myself. I'm out,

515
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: do you really put yourself? Do you d do you?

516
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: Are you really happy with what I'm saying. That's where

517
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: I had to get to you know what I'm saying.

518
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: I think there was a there was a long time

519
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: where like with someone who loves this music as much

520
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: as I do, it was difficult for me to know

521
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: like like the I like what I'm doing, my career paths,

522
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: what that makes my life? Like what what being a

523
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 1: white rapper means to my life as opposed to be

524
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: if I was black or Latino or something. You know

525
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Um, all these things were these demons

526
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: where now? And that caused me to like not with everything.

527
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,439
Speaker 1: So now it's kind of like all right, dude, Like

528
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: it's kind of like looking in the mirror. It's like

00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,400
Speaker 1: stop being like a little bit like get up man,

610
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,960

611
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: this recent times was like living, like getting back to

612

617
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,920
