38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 3: to just fucking claim me. He moved when I was

39
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,960

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 3: were born in New Jersey.

42
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 4: Worn to raised northern New Jersey, Brick City.

43
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: Did you tell How did I not know that?

00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: Wow? What it is now?

46
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 4: Yes?

47
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: Shit? Crazy still going?

48
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 4: So it's twenty billion dreams?

49
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 3: Sounds yeah, it sounds right.

50
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 4: All right. So what song sparked your success?

51
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 3: It kind of came in stages. The first one that

52
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 3: like did real damage for me was a song called Goodbye,

53
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 3: which off camera we were talking about. You know you're

54
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 3: using civil war. She used Goodbye. It's a good one,

55
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 3: but Yeah, it was a song called Goodbye that was

56
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 3: the first one that got like one hundred thousand views

57
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 3: and listens, and then the two that kind of popped

58
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 3: off at the same time for me were losing control

59
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: and what they want? Those went crazy like twenty sixteen,

60
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 3: I think shock.

61
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 5: One of the things I love about Russa's story is

62
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:06,119
Speaker 5: he is constantly creating. You're constantly making yeah, And that's

63
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 5: why I feel like as fans, like myself, we have

64
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 5: seen this constant evolution where there's never I felt like

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 5: been a time off. When you close your eyes and

66
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 5: you think about like the hardest part of the journey

67
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 5: visually what do you see? What room are you in? Like,

68
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 5: what what part are you And then for that person

69
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 5: to look at where you are now, what is that cenisation?

70
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 3: Like visually, where am I in my room? That's the

71
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: room I'm in. It's just the hardest moment is mental.

72
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 3: It was nothing that had to do with like industry stuff.

73
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: It was all like me versus me. That's the battle,

74
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 3: you know, is like as a as a musician, when

75
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 3: you're making the kind of music that I like to

76
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: make where it's like authentic and you know it's my

77
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 3: real life. So it's just wrestling with everything I'm talking about,

78
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: you know, it's this is like my audio diary. So

79
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: the toughest part is going through the shit that is

80
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: making the music, you know.

81
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, So a lot of independent artists when they get

82
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 4: big time, they look for the major deal. What made

83
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 4: you say, you know what, I must stay independent the

84
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: whole time. I'm to do it myself.

85
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. So in twenty after I did like, you know,

86
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 3: a song a week on SoundCloud for two and a

87
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 3: half years and eleven projects, I partnered with a major

88
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 3: label for three years, four years, but I kept my

89
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 3: entire back catalog. They didn't they didn't own it, so

90
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 3: they just we just split the money on like three

91
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 3: albums and then I just went back fully Indian twenty twenty.

92
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 3: It was like a very like rare situation to be

93
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: able to do that, and I bought myself out the

94
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: deal at the end, can I say how much?

95
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 4: I yeah?

96
00:04:51,920 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 3: No, yeah, okay, good one point five My manager gave

97
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 3: me to go. Yeah, But I bought myself out the

98
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 3: deal and I went back fully Indian. For me, it

99
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: just got to that point where I realized, like, you

100
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 3: guys aren't doing anything I can't do myself, so I

101
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 3: would rather just, you know, keep all the fruits of

102
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: the labor. It's I think artists don't realize that that

103
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 3: the label is not going to do anything that you

104
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 3: and your team aren't already doing. They're just there to

105
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 3: react to what y'all are doing. And so a lot

106
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: of artists get screwed because they show up and they

107
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: think that, like, the label's going to be on some right,

108
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 3: we'll take it from here. No, they're not. They're waiting

109
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 3: to see what y'all are doing, you know. So for

110
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 3: me it was like, well, shit, I'm already doing everything

111
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 3: and I don't need like y'all have a button that

112
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: you can push, which is just money. But I have money,

113
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 3: so I'll push the button and stop breaking y'all off.

114
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 5: We're seeing this in the NBA as well, a few

115
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 5: of the athletes are representing themselves, especially in the draft.

116
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 3: Smart Yeah. I just saw him talking about that.

117
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 5: He His whole thing was, He's like, why am I

118
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 5: giving you know, three percent or whatever to these people

119
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 5: when I feel like I could handle it. I was

120
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 5: going to see if if you had noticed that, and

121
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 5: obviously you had.

122
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 3: Would you what's the what's the dynamics though? Like do

123
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 3: NBA teams and owners hate when a player doesn't have

124
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 3: an agent? Are they like this fucking Prima Donna? And

125
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: then they like are now kind of like let's stay

126
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 3: away from him?

127
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 4: Or I think they enjoy it because you know, as

128
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 4: your manager knows to be in that business. Yeah, you know,

129
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 4: one word can throw it off. One word you don't

130
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 4: know what you're looking at, can throw out the contract.

131
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 4: So I think they enjoy it. For example, remember.

132
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 3: When Ricky Oh, because they feel like.

133
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 4: Davis represent himself and everybody thought he had the biggest

134
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 4: deal ever.

135
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: It is you know he did he was remember that

136
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 3: as I.

137
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 4: No, it's it's if you win a super Bowl you

138
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 4: get this. So I think they owners and enjoy it.

139
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 5: It just happened in the NFL as well. T Higgins

140
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 5: just got a huge contract and then once the contract

141
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 5: details came out, everyone went, oh you got you got

142
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 5: written up a little bit different. So there is like

143
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 5: the concern about it, yeah, but also like the investing

144
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 5: in yourself aspect that you have done. I would love

145
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 5: to see that happen with.

146
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: But for like, if you're if you're an NBA player,

147
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 3: do you need the agent and the lawyer. Why can't

148
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: you just get a lawyer on hourly to read the contract?

149
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 4: That's a'sact. What do you think? Well, he's correct. I

150
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,559
Speaker 4: mean that's what I That's what I ended up doing later.

151
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 4: But yeah, you know, my thing was I want some

152
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 4: money to speak the language that I'm telling him to speak.

153
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 4: This is what I want. Yeah, this is I'm not

154
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 4: taking the less who would? Now you go talk.

155
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: How you speak alien to the other alien? Just figure

156
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: it out and.

157
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 4: Then when and then when you give it to me.

158
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 4: I love you and I trust you, but let me

159
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 4: have this guy look at it.

160
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: That's what's just in case.

161
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 4: And so I've I've always had too.

162
00:07:59,600 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 5: You.

163
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 4: I like how you give artists information? Yeah, question, Like

164
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 4: you know, back in my day, you would sell albums

165
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 4: and you go platinum, You go go and you get

166
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 4: the status. Is it the same way with stremes? And

167
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 4: how many streams is platinum? No?

168
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, back then it was just physical, you know,

169
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 3: So it was just one to one. You sold one

170
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 3: album accounted as one album. Right now on an album

171
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 3: you need to do fifteen hundred streams for it to

172
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 3: count as one sale. Yea, which is just like an

173
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 3: arbitrary number that like who came up with that? Why

174
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 3: isn't it twelve hundreds? You know what I mean?

175
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 4: Like, so you need to listen to my song.

176
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: Fifteen for a song, it's different for song, it's one

177
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty. So you just divide by like ten. So,

178
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: for example, you see a lot of artists like kind

179
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: of gaming gaming the system, which I'm like, all four.

180
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 3: But what I mean by that is, let's say you

181
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 3: have four songs out and they're all platinum, right, they're

182
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 3: all a million. Well, if you put all four of

183
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 3: those on an album, that album has now sold four

184
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 3: hundred thousand. You see what I'm saying, because your four

185
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 3: singles are four million, but when you put them on

186
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 3: an album, you got to divide it by ten, and

187
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: so now this album has done four hundred thousand. But

188
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: really it's like did the album do four hundred thousand?

189
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 3: Did those four songs do that? But it makes it

190
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 3: look like the album is this like super successful.

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 4: So you said you said platinum, So a million streams

192
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: is platinum? No?

193
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 3: No, no, you need one hundred and fifty million streams

194
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 3: in the US.

195
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, goddamn, And.

196
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 3: It's US only. That's that's all. Oh yeah, because when

197
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 3: you're when you see people like, oh, I went platinum,

198
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: people don't understand like Riublea, which is the company that

199
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 3: certifies platinum, is just US. So you see a lot

200
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 3: of artists who just are like, man, I got two

201
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 3: hundred million streams, How am I not platinum? It's like

202
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 3: because one hundred million of them came from Malaysia, you

203
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 3: know what I mean? Like you have to get a

204
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty million in US to.

205
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 5: Go Why don't Malaysians count?

206
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 3: They do for Malaysian certifications. So, like every country has

207
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 3: their own threshold for what quantifies as gold and plant,

208
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 3: so you can like, you know, go gold in Canada

209
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: with less or you know, platinum in France with just

210
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 3: doing ten thousand sales in France. It's all based off

211
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: of like population, and you know, it's crazy. That's why.

212
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 3: I Also when you see like so and so has

213
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 3: so sold whatever worldwide? No they haven't. There's no way

214
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: to determine that unless it's just straight up physical Like

215
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 3: if you've sold twenty million physical records, you can count

216
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: that up, but you can't count up like well because

217
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty million streams in the US is platinum.

218
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 3: If they did one hundred and fifty million in the Philippines,

219
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 3: they're double platinum. No, the Philippines has a different thing.

220
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 3: So there's no way to know based off streams what

221
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 3: everyone's doing worldwide. That is just paid fucking tweets and shit.

222
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 3: How do you make money owning the streams, by owning

223
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 3: the music and just fucking catalog and volume, it all

224
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 3: adds up. So for me, like I got five hundred

225
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 3: songs out, I always tell people it's like, you don't

226
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 3: need one song to do one hundred million streams in

227
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 3: a month. You can have a hundred songs out and

228
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 3: they're each doing a million streams in a month. That's

229
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 3: a way like easier mountain to climb. So for me,

230
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: I just like one From an artistic standpoint, I just

231
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: like making songs and I like sharing them. And then

232
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 3: from a business standpoint, I'm like, it takes the pressure

233
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: off of each individual song because I don't need all

234
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: of y'all to go out there and be the biggest

235
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 3: shit in the world. I can have five hundred songs

236
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: that are getting a million streams a month, and that's

237
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: five hundred million streams a month.

238
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 4: You know.

239
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 5: Every time I see an interview with you, and I'm

240
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 5: experiencing it right now, I feel like you're like the

241
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 5: music industry translator, where you're like, hey.

242
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 3: Translating the alien language.

243
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 5: Do you do you enjoy both sides of it?

244
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: I do you enjoy both sides? Because I like knowing

245
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 3: what the fuck is going on with my shit, you know,

246
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 3: That's where it came from. It just like I don't

247
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 3: know everything. I just asked a lot of questions, and

248
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 3: it comes from the general like genuine curiosity of hey,

249
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 3: like I want to know what's went and how this

250
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 3: all works and what's going on with my shit. So

251
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 3: I'm just more informed for my own sake, you know.

252
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: And just like I like numbers, I like analytics. I

253
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 3: always was like sending my booking agent, like the one

254
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 3: who books the tours, Like when I was on SoundCloud,

255
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 3: I was sending her, here's my top ten cities, Like

256
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 3: book the tour in these ten cities, you know. I

257
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 3: just like I like numbers, I always did their finite

258
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:40,000

359
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 3: Man growing up? It was Eminem was the first like

360
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 3: one that like, I the bug bit me Eminem. It

361
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 3: was like g Unit, Eminem, fifty Lloyd Banks.

362
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 5: Did you have the tank tops?

363
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 4: No?

364
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 3: But like my first rap I ever wrote was like

365
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 3: I'm from Queens with baggy jeans and I was not

366
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 3: from Queens, but like fifty was the coolest person in

367
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 3: the world, you know what I mean. So it was

368
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 3: g Unit and then it was like Wayne, and then

369
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 3: it was Kanye, And I didn't get into jay z

370
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 3: U till I was older because jay Z's like content,

371
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: you have to be of a certain like maturity level,

372
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 3: I feel like to even grasp what he's saying. So

373
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 3: I didn't get into jay z ta I was like

374
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 3: seventeen eighteen. But yeah, high school was just all Wayne

375
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 3: because I was in high school six to twenty ten

376
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 3: and Wayne and six and seven was like just nuts.

377
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 3: He put out like seventy six songs in two thousand

378
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 3: and seven or some shit when he was just rapping

379
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 3: on everyone shit going crazy. But yeah, Wayne, j Cole, Nipsey, Drake, Kanye,

380
00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 3: and yeah DMX, I love DMX, his cadence, his cadence,

381
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 3: like the pausing and the ramping. To me, his cadence

382
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 3: was the closest to Tupac. Like that's why I just

383
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 3: let like how he would deliver the bars. It was

384
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 3: like melodic in a sense because it would ramp up,

385
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. It was like it was like,

386
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 3: I don't know, it's just so cool to me.

387
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 5: Man, I can tell you love it, and and the

388
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 5: amount that you create shows that you love it. I'm

389
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 5: curious what percentage of music artists that we see today

390
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 5: do you think love making music or what percent of

391
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 5: artists do you think love getting paid and being famous?

392
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 3: I would say yeah. Honestly, the NBA is very similar.

393
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, you know guys who would play for free?

394
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 4: You know me?

395
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 3: Yeah? Right, And you could tell here's the funny right,

396
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 3: not free, but just like you know, the funny thing

397
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: that I that I think is that the dudes in

398
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 3: the NBA who I thought played like they would play

399
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 3: for free, those are the ones who actually win the

400
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 3: rings and get the most money anyway. And so same

401
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 3: with like rap, the dudes who are rapping just to

402
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 3: get money are not going to get the most money.

403
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 3: It's like you have to do it because you love it,

404
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 3: then you get the most money as a result of

405
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: doing it because you love it that much. But I

406
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 3: think naturally and I get it rap music. It turned

407
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 3: like the barrier to entry got so low where anyone

408
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 3: could do it. So now everyone's like looking at it

409
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 3: as a come up, as a like, you know, get

410
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 3: rich quick thing, which dilutes the art, dilutes the value.

411
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 3: You know, bring gatekeepers back, you know what I mean?

412
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 4: Did you know that one of your songs for me

413
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 4: was a relationship saver?

414
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 3: I had no idea, and I would never guess, nor

415
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 3: would I have guessed that song.

416
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 4: I'm the type that I don't fight a block.

417
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 3: Nice to help me so when I want to, So.

418
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 4: When I want to come back, Yeah, a lot of

419
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 4: people come back by talking always in civil war.

420
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 3: That's so incredible.

421
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 5: And then do you say anything with it or do

422
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 5: you just say the.

423
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 3: Song because that's awesome.

424
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 4: No, No, because he says everything for me exactly. Let

425
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 4: me play it for you. He says everything for me.

426
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 4: It works every time my work life's I know you're

427
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 4: sitting over there, Laven and they go hello, and then

428
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 4: it goes.

429
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 3: I don't want to text you anymore. I just want

430
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 3: to stop this.

431
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 4: Please and stop writing that bam. And then then I go,

432
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 4: when you're right, daddy, I love you, Daddy.

433
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 3: I wiss you too.

434
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 4: After after a long weekend in Miami or Vegas, Oh

435
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 4: you start a fighting, I'm going on a trip.

436
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 3: That is actually why I made that song for those scenarios.

437
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's great.

438
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 3: You know what's funny about that song. That was when

439
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 3: I was kind of in a place in my life

440
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 3: where the women in my life weren't like I wasn't

441
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 3: getting emotionally charged by them, like how I was in

442
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 3: the past where I can like make a lot of

443
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 3: music about women because I was going through something with them.

444
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 3: But I was like, I like making those kind of

445
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 3: like relationship problem songs. So I was like, how am

446
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 3: I gonna still make a song that feels like it's

447
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 3: a relationship problem song if I don't have any problems

448
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 3: with relationships right now? And so that song is actually

449
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 3: about me and myself, Oh it is. That's why I

450
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 3: called it civil War. Oh it was me talking to

451
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 3: myself like in my like it was me wrestling with

452
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 3: this past version of myself before fame and me feeling

453
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: like not having a good grasp on this successful life

454
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 3: and and like fighting with my younger self, Like, but

455
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 3: I knew if I like did it in that way,

456
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 3: it would be you know, a relationship. An when'd you

457
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,959
Speaker 3: release that song twenty nineteen?

458
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 4: I've been rocking out ever since. I'm about I'm not

459
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,679
Speaker 4: gonna take you the number. I'm just I'm about twenty

460
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 4: five and over with that song. I'll let you figure.

461
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 3: Out what off those streams going platinum?

462
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 5: Man, I got I got two follow ups on that one.

463
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 5: Shack doesn't like when to do this because Shaq likes

464
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 5: to think he's just a normal guy and not one

465
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 5: of the most famous, most successful men in the world.

466
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 5: What is it like seeing Shaq vibing out into your

467
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 5: music and what was your relationship with Shaq growing up?

468
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 5: Like were you a big basketball fan?

469
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? That was a huge bad I am a huge

470
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 3: basketball fan. Shaq was the most dominant player in the world.

471
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 3: Like it's not even close. It's like, I mean, yeah,

472
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 3: I'm thirty two. So like in high school, you know,

473
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 3: in like seventh eighth grade, like that's Shack Kobe, Like

474
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 3: that was you know what I mean, But seeing him

475
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 3: listening to that is.

476
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 5: And then my other question is because Shaq. We we

477
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 5: had this discussion recently with Nil in college where we

478
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 5: were we wondered and worried would kids still be as

479
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 5: motivated if they didn't have to quote get it out

480
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 5: the Mud? And the way you're talking right there, you're like, man,

481
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,479
Speaker 5: what happens when I'm so good writing songs about when

482
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 5: I'm going through problems? But now I'm not going through

483
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 5: problems anymore? And is that just like a muscle you

484
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 5: work on to put yourself in that mindset?

485
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 3: It just forces you to dig deeper. You know. It's

486
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 3: like it's it was easy to like just get in

487
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 3: some shit with a girl and like getting some three

488
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 3: month thing and it ends bad and then you write

489
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 3: the song maybe that was a problem, but it's like,

490
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 3: you know, that was easy to just like curate a

491
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,479
Speaker 3: problem in my life for the music, And when that

492
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 3: wasn't there anymore, it's like, oh, I got to dig

493
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 3: deeper to actually like get something of substance.

494
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 4: You know.

495
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 3: I think that's a lot of artists like challenges. Is

496
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 3: what happens when you run out of surface level shit

497
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 3: to talk about. Now what now you got to dig

498
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 3: beneath the surface.

499
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 4: And as an artist say I'm sticking to what I

500
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 4: do though that's not the trend right now. How do

501
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,440
Speaker 4: you fight against that? Because, I mean, because the way

502
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 4: you flow is our persons both to flow. But you

503
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 4: got a lot of bullshit that gets to be sure.

504
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 4: So how do you say, Okay, you know what, in

505
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 4: order to keep the attention of this, how do you say,

506
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 4: I'm gonna change my flow and dumb it down for

507
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 4: the dummies?

508
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 3: I just like, I have a strong, strong sense of

509
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 3: like what I like, and I just I can't help

510
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 3: but go and make that, you know.

511
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 4: Thank you?

512
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, thank you for listening.

513
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 4: I'm telling you that I'm tired of that goddamn fan song.

514
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 4: I don't want to hear it no more? What's song

515
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,840

517
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 3: What's that song with the dance don't?

518
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 4: I don't want to hear it.

519
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 5: Okay, he's talking about the dude bringing the fan out.

520
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 4: I did it. It was funny. It got a lot

521
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 4: of you unless I don't want to hear that fucking

522
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 4: song no more.

523
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 3: I don't even know what song I'm talking about, but

524
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 3: I agree yeah.

525
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 4: With them fan like you haven't saying like everybody's doing

526
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 4: the dance at.

527
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 3: The camera boots with them fans is yeah, it's not

528
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 3: on my f y P didn't make it, No, but

529
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 3: it's it's tough because you see stuff that's commercially working

530
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 3: and you're like, naturally, you know, your brain is like hmm,

531
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 3: maybe I should switch this. But it's like anytime I

532
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 3: go into the studio. I think it also helps that

533
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 3: it's just in my house and I don't have anyone

534
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 3: in there with me that I can't help, but just

535
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 3: make what I want to make, you know.

536
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 4: So you do all your own beats.

537
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, for the most part. Yeah, logic, logic, logic yeah,

538
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 3: oh yeah, able to always look like Chinese to me, man.

539
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 4: Like everything because do you do you play music? Yeah?

540
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 4: So I don't play music like I steal ship.

541
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 3: Every producer does.

542
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 4: Yeah. I started with I started with the reason Okay,

543
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,719
Speaker 4: it went to logic, Yeah, it went to fruity loops wow,

544
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 4: and then I want to able.

545
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 3: To So growing up I started on garage band and

546
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 3: my boy who I was, yeah, and my boy who

547
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 3: I was making beats with, he had fruity loops. This

548
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: is like six, so I would like go to his house,

549
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 3: he would use fruity loops, he'd come over to mind,

550
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 3: we'd use garage band. But then logic was just a

551
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 3: natural evolution of garage ban So that's why I just

552
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 3: stayed on logic.

553
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 5: The question from the General, this big break is sponsored

554
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 5: by our friends at the General, Shaq, why don't you

555
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 5: ask him the question?

556
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 4: You're all about self empowerment. Was there a specific time

557
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 4: of trouble where you had to tap into that self

558
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 4: empowerment to get through it?

559
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably when I canceled my tour for the first

560
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 3: time ever in twenty twenty two, because I had just

561
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:44,719
Speaker 3: reached this point where like the weight of everything that

562
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 3: had changed in my life pre success up until that

563
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 3: point had all just like come crashing down, and I

564
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 3: finally like sat with the fact that, you know, I'm

565
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 3: taking care of my whole family. It's been years since

566
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 3: I felt like a son and since I felt like

567
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 3: a brother, because you know, you step into that role

568
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 3: of like taking care of everyone, you know. And when

569
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 3: I didn't give my I didn't give myself a second

570
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: to even feel that transition. And when I actually like

571
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 3: felt it, it was just too much because it was

572
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 3: seven years of shit to unpack and like deal with

573
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 3: and grieve, you know. And I think as men, like

574
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,439
Speaker 3: we're just taught to get over it, you know, and uh,

575
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 3: that works for a while, but then it comes out

576
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 3: sideways at some point. And it's going to come out

577
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: sideways at the worst spot.

578
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 4: So yeahments oh.

579
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,080

Speaker 4: Your new album, Wild, Yeah, Well, what makes this different?

603
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 4: And when you're doing an album, you come up with

604
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: the bee first, or you come up with the song first.

605
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 3: So Wild for me is what makes it different is

606
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 3: just where I'm at in my life. You know, I

607
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 3: think my goal with every album is just to accurately

608
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 3: capture where I'm at on my journey at that point,

609
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 3: and where I'm at now is sort of just you know,

610
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 3: in the past, I've really resisted the unknown of life,

611
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 3: and I've always tried to micro manage everything in my

612
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 3: life so I could control the outcome, and it just

613
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 3: makes for like an exhausting experience and just so stressful

614
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 3: and so now on a spiritual level. I'm just trying

615
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 3: to get to this place where I'm just I'm actually

616
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 3: having faith. You know. I feel like so many people

617
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 3: talk about faith, but like, and I've talked about it

618
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 3: in past songs, but I never had it because I

619
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 3: would say I had faith, but then I wouldn't truly

620
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: let go and trust that things were going to work out.

621
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 3: I would micro manage my manager, I would micro manage

622
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 3: anything everyone because God forbid, I allow God to like

623
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 3: have a hand in the situation. You know. It's like

624
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 3: I didn't trust anyone but myself, including God. You know.

625
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 4: But speaking from experiences I'm studying psychology, know, I'm working

626
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 4: on being a mentor. That's not always a bad thing.

627
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so either.

628
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 4: It's not always a bad thing because nobody is going

629
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 4: to focus on you more than you.

630
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a balance and that's the that's

631
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 3: the tough thing. So that's what makes it different, is

632
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 3: just where I'm at and then coming up with the songs,

633
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 3: you know, for this album, it was like a really

634
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 3: different experience because I had just got done due with

635
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 3: my first movie that's coming out later this year. No,

636
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 3: I wish I want to do it I just want

637
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,959
Speaker 3: to be the next like hit Man. I'm like me

638
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 3: and you come on, bro, let's do it, buddy cop movie.

639
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: But I got done doing my first movie and it

640
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 3: was such a like eye opening experience to be involved

641
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 3: with comunity that much. And I mean, I'm sure you

642
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 3: like have a strong sense of community from playing sports,

643
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 3: like you were always with a team, you know. But

644
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 3: for me, in the way I make music, my experience

645
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 3: has been so insular and isolated, and it's just been

646
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 3: me and getting on a movie set and you're with

647
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 3: these people five days a week, thirteen hours every day.

648
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 3: I didn't realize like how much that was missing in

649
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 3: my music making because that was so fun. It was

650
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 3: more fun than I had making music because you're doing

651
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 3: all this shit together like all one common goal and

652
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 3: there's all these people trying to get to this one thing.

653
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 3: And so coming off the movie, I was like, man,

654
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: how do I recreate that in my music life? So

655
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 3: I reached out to these two like just up and

656
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 3: coming like unknown producer songwriters in Australia. I just found

657
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 3: them on the internet, Jake and Kirie. Incredible, Yeah, just

658
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 3: like incredible, like you know, a thousand follower type people

659
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 3: who just just are fire, and I reached out and

660
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 3: we just made the whole album together. So like whether

661
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 3: it was me sending beats or them sending beats or

662
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 3: me doing an and then then picking up that melody

663
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 3: and be like, oh what if it went like truly

664
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: making shit together. It was just the most fun I've

665
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 3: had like making music, so as far to the dance

666
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 3: to your second question, if it beats or songs kind

667
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 3: of depends. Sometimes I'll be like, man, I have a

668
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 3: song I need to make, Like Civil War was a

669
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 3: song idea. It was like that concept and then the

670
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 3: music came, you know. But I would say majority of

671
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 3: the time, the music dictates what I'm about to write about.

672
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 5: I've never really interviewed a musician before, so I have

673
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 5: two dumb questions.

674
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 3: There are no more questions.

675
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 5: The exclamation point instead of the eye in Wild.

676
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I usually hate shit like that. I was so

677
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 3: close to me this is the lamest shit ever to do.

678
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 3: But the reason why I did it, honestly, it was

679
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 3: an accident, so like it was supposed to be wild

680
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 3: and then an exclamation point. And I did this interview

681
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 3: with like Rolling Stone, and they put out the article

682
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 3: and they spelled it the way you see it, and

683
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I don't know that kind of works.

684
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 3: And the reason why I had an exclamation point was

685
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 3: because I'm shifting from sort of like like I was saying,

686
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 3: resisting the unknown and being like pessimistic about the future

687
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 3: and like, what's going to happen if I'm not micromanaging

688
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 3: every situation and just being so scared of the unknown

689
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 3: and what could happen and all this shit. Shifting from

690
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 3: that to optimistically going into the unknown and being excited

691
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 3: to experience what life still has in store for me,

692
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 3: knowing that there's gonna be some more fucked up shit

693
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 3: that happens just inherently, you know. But like my whole

694
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 3: existence up until now has been spent trying to run

695
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 3: around the proverbial boat and plug all the holes so

696
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,800
Speaker 3: that no leak ever happens. And so when when fucked

697
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 3: up shit would happened in my life, it like threatened

698
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 3: my sense of identity and my sense of like power,

699
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 3: because I'm like, how is fucked up shit happening in

700
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 3: my life? Like what that's impossible? I'm successful and I

701
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 3: have money, and I run shit like things shouldn't be

702
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 3: sucking up, and now I'm excited to enter into the

703
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 3: unknown because i know it's going to be like really

704
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 3: great moments and bad moments, but I know I'm gonna

705
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 3: be okay. So that's like the exclamation point is trying

706
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 3: to psychologically trick myself into being excited about going into

707
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 3: life unknown.

708
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 5: And then my my other dumb question is I was

709
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 5: driving through Brooklyn and I'm listening to the to the

710
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 5: songs that are on Spotify, the new album, and I

711
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 5: really liked April seventh, Thank You. Then I was like,

712
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:36,760
Speaker 5: why is it called April seventh?

713
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 3: It was that my girl's birthday?

714
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 4: One?

715
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 3: Oh oh points Yeah that I mean when that had.

716
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 5: When when she hears what the name of the song is,

717
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 5: I mean, is it You're just the King of the Earth.

718
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, for like four minutes, Nah, she was, she loves

719
00:35:58,239 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 3: that song.

720
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 4: If you ever need any girl of advice, good or.

721
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 3: Bad, heavy on the bad, I'm your guy.

722
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 4: Ever ever get in the jam, I'm the guy.

723
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 5: Actually, if you have any recent jams you've been in

724
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 5: and you need Shack's advice, he is here to help.

725
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, beautiful, No, I've been jam free for years now.

726
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 4: Thank God.

727
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 3: It's good That's the thing I don't miss about being

728
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 3: single is just it's like it's it's too much. Is

729
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 3: too much, It's too it's like too many headaches. It's

730
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 3: like playing whack them all with headaches. It's like as

731
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 3: soon as you like whack, like this one's okay, this

732
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 3: one's okay, and then it's like it's like a fuck,

733
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, it's too much good point.

734
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 3: It's tough to good points. How does he he blocks

Speaker 4: a tour, how do you not go ahead and say

743

Speaker 4: I'm a dope with some last.

744
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 3: Like that's what I mean, that's what this is. Like

745
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,879
Speaker 3: I'm headlining it, so I am I am going last?

746

Speaker 4: Yeah.

747
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 3: But I mean it's it's a tour that you sort

748
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 3: of like present to these other artists like, Hey, I'm

750
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 3: I love Big Sean too. I think he's hella underrated.

00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,640

754
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, he's a huge fucking artist. So

755
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 3: I just think Package sixteen. Yeah, starting to win July eighth.

756
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 3: And I hate touring. You know, I love doing shows,

757
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 3: but I hate touring. So this is sixteen is a

758
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 3: lot for me. Nowadays, you fly, you take the bus, fly.

759
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 3: Can't do the bus anymore of it? No, no, oh

760
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 3: fuck no. I did a year of where it was

761
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 3: nothing but private jets, spent like two million. I was like,

762
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 3: I'm never doing this again. It's the dummish ship ever.

763
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 4: But you can write it off, buddy.

764
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 3: Some of it. It's not a one to one ratio,

765
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 3: oh wonder one.

766
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 9: Yes, trust me, brother, I don't think so.

767
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 3: This is one of those bad advice things. This is

768
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 3: how to get in a jam.

769
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 4: I will give you a guy, my guy's number.

770
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,359
Speaker 3: And beautiful. I'm open to exploring that.

771
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, when you read comments, do they get to you?

772
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:33,720
Speaker 3: What gets to me about the comments? The negative ones?

773
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 4: What are you reading it?

774
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 3: Uh? It's probably some sick fucking like like I don't

775
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 3: even know I did you know what it is. I

776
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 3: read them because I'm like looking for the bad, like

777
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 3: and then like, let's unpack that, shall we? Is this

778
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 3: the doctor O'Neill segment? Yes, okay, yeah, why is that?

779
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 3: I think?

780
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 5: Because I want to write a dissertation on comment.

781
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 3: I think I want I want validation, like there's that

782
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 3: element of course wars, but like been working on that.

783
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 3: But then I read the comments, I see the negative ones,

784
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 3: and it naturally bothers you because it's also this disgusting

785
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 3: need to be understood by the entire human race. And

786
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 3: how dare you misunderstand me? You know? But my mentor

787
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 3: gave me a good piece of advice, which is when

788
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 3: you read a negative comment, the first thing you should

789
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 3: ask is it true? If it's not, like, that's what

790
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 3: I do now. If it's not.

791
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 4: True, good mentor keep him.

792
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 3: It completely loses its weight. Now. If it's true, then

793
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 3: there might actually be a lesson in there, Like you

794
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 3: know what, Yeah, it's not bad, that's good commentary.

795
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 4: As your other mentor do tell nobody should never influence

796
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 4: to somebody. You see this, You see this glove right here? Yeah,

797
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 4: one of the rubies is worth how much a lot?

798
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 3: Yeah?

799
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 4: Over two made right right, one person canna say I

800
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 4: don't like that ruby you should put sometimes so so

801
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 4: why why if this person is unvalidated, You're not You're

802
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 4: not a fucking jeweler and work for sotherby'st That's what

803
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 4: I'm saying. So first you have to see who you're

804
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 4: talking to.

805
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so true.

806
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 4: So the first thing you do, who the fuck is

807
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 4: this guy? You've only got two thousand followers. I'm not

808
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 4: fucking paying attention to you. Like we waste time and

809
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 4: we waste brain cells trying to be validated from nobody's

810
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 4: I want to be validated by nobody. I want to

811
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 4: be validated by somebody, and there's somebody that that validates

812
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 4: you or is already somebody in your life, Dad, Rather

813

Speaker 4: manage your boys like me if it ain't part of

814
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 4: my panel.

815
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 3: I don't even what you say. You know what I'm saying,

816
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 3: like it's real.

817
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 4: It's only it's only a few people that are bigger

818
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 4: than me, status wised. Like there's somebody from a big

819
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 4: jewelry things that maybe you should have moved a ruby

820
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 4: to the right now now, this company that they're in

821
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 4: gyms and diamonds and all that shit. Maybe you take

822
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 4: that to consideration, but you My advice to you, my

823
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 4: young brothers, don't read that shit. Yeah, successful, you're doing

824
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 4: it your way. Continue to do it your way, and

825
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 4: the day you stop caring is the day you're going

826
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:08,359
Speaker 4: to brow up even more.

827
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure you're right, man. You know what I

828
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 3: just realized as you were saying that. You know what

829
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 3: I think it is too that I didn't realize is

830
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 3: being a musician is like if your entire career depends

831
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 3: on jersey sales. Because as like, as an athlete, everyone

832
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 3: could hate you, but if you average twenty five, ten

833
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 3: and six, like, it doesn't matter, you know what I mean? Now,

834
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 3: what if you getting a contract next year depending on

835
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 3: your jersey sales? Jersey sales is how much do we

836
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 3: like you? You know? And so for musicians like it,

837
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 3: my song's doing well depends on if the audience likes you.

838
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 3: That's how this whole shit works. So I think naturally

839
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 3: that's why artists are more sensitive and care more about

840
00:41:55,200 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 3: people liking us, because that is literally what our business

841
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 3: relies on is public opinion. So it's fucked. It's like

842
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,439
Speaker 3: as much as we can say, oh, it doesn't matter

843
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 3: what the public thing. Yeah it does, Yeah, it does. Yeah,

844
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 3: because guess what, as soon as you've seen it with art,

845
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,280
Speaker 3: as soon as the public says.

846
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 4: I'm going to have to disago say public, it's this

847
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 4: this public right here. We don't have time to comment.

848
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:23,359
Speaker 4: We work.

849
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:24,799

00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 4: any motherfucking I write a whole paragraph. I don't have

852
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 4: a job.

853
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,240
Speaker 3: And I listened to you again.

854
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 4: I'll take you to listen to it. Maybe you should

855
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 4: put more snap on the snare like I'll give it,

856
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 4: but I'm never gonna let it get to me. Yeah. No,

857
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 4: I had to learn how to because we we all

858
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 4: go through the same thing. I have to learn how

859
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 4: to do break it down and say, it's only five

860
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 4: things that can stress me out. Now, only give a

861
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 4: fuck about five things, mother, kids, organization, my money. It's

862
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,760
Speaker 4: all I get about about. Nothing else. Oh, he's shocked

863
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,839
Speaker 4: this dope, don't don't bother me. And once I got

864
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 4: to that place, and I actually got that place from

865
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 4: watching the movie. I don't know if you saw the movie.

866
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 4: The fan Robert de Niro, Wesley snaps, so Robert de

867
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 4: Niro kidnaps. Wessey snaps because he's a famous baseball player,

868
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 4: not to harm him. So he gets him there eating

869
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 4: dinner and he think, man, your fucking RBI is high,

870
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,479
Speaker 4: you hit home runs, you're the best baseball player. Ever,

871
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 4: how do you do it? And Wessey says, I don't care.

872
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 4: Now Robert gets fucking mad. Fuck you mean you don't care?

873
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,439
Speaker 4: He said, I don't care. Once I started doing that

874
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 4: championships business.

875
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 3: This was a long time.

876
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 4: It was a long time ago, and I was like,

877
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 4: you know what, because you're right, Like I was getting

878
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 4: all the criticism, but I still got the highest paid contract.

879
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:48,479
Speaker 4: I'm still doing that. So obviously these people the people

880
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 4: that we need to like us to care about, they

881
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,279

00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, could you tell when you were in the league

884
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 3: the players who care too much about the opinion and

885
00:43:58,400 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 3: how it affected.

886
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 4: Time all the time, Like when you when you care, Yeah,

887
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,840

Speaker 4: What und thousand? But I like to so, you know what,

941
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 4: we all have influences. So growing up, I used to

942
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 4: play ball and do albums. So when I did the

943
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 4: ar Senior Whole Show, I wanted to come into the

944
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 4: game different. You know, let me let me wrap on

945
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 4: my favorite rapper, so Foo sniggers at the time. I

946
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 4: reached out to them. We did a song What's Up, Doc?

947
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 4: And then after I performed, because I used to perform

948
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 4: in the mirror like, I was like I knew all

949
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 4: the fucking move Like I'm like, I'm in my mind

950
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:56,280
Speaker 4: of a rapper.

951
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, wait, what are the rapper moves?

952
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 4: We got a little you know, you know back then

953
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 4: there was the shoulder in the in and out like

954
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 4: so you know, like you said you were from Queens.

955
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,280
Speaker 4: I was a fucking rapper. I was I was big Daddy,

956
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 4: I was ll I was buddy. So it came natural

957
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 4: to me. So when I got on Our Senior Has

958
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 4: Show and did that performance, my agent called me next.

959
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 4: They said, man, you're not gonna believe us. So what

960
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 4: he said, jo, I want to give you ten million

961
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 4: for three albums.

962
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 3: Oh ship. I had to fucking take it, Like that's

963
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 3: what I'm saying.

964
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 4: I had to take it, and plus and plus I

00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 4: hold fucking most of them like I had a fucking

966
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,959
Speaker 4: bird Man dial before that, you know what I'm saying.

967
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 4: So when I came to the realization, not a fucking rapper,

968
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 4: So I went home fucking thinking and then I said, okay,

969
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 4: go back to them and said I will only do

970
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,560

1108
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:47,920

00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 3: a lawyer, you know, get a cheap hourly lawyer. It's

1131
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 3: unfortunate that kind of shit happens too often.

1132
00:55:59,040 --> 00:55:59,840
Speaker 4: Does Yeah?

1133
00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:03,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, I've went to chat cheat GPT.

00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:07,240
Speaker 4: I just like because they'd be giving me the craziest looks.

1135
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,640
Speaker 5: All right, this is so what I want to happen

1136
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,759
Speaker 5: is I want Russ to try and talk his way

1137
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 5: out of it first, and then Jack, you can show

1138
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,920
Speaker 5: your skills. All right. This one is called the Surprise Playlist.

1139
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 5: Shaquilla is driving his girl plugs in the Aus and

1140
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 5: sees a Spotify playlist titled Late Nights with Tea and

1141
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 5: all the songs are slow jams. She turns and asks,

1142
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 5: who is Tea? Russ, I'll let you have a crack

1143
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 5: at this one first.

1144
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 3: Easy, uh, not that I've been in this situation, I

1145
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:50,359
Speaker 3: would say t is my boy's girlfriend, and he sent

1146
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 3: me the playlist, and so now we're sharing the playlist,

1147
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 3: and it's a playlist his girl, that him and his

1148
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,000
Speaker 3: girl made. He just shared it with me, so I

1149
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,399
Speaker 3: have access to the place list. What you mean, stop

1150
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:06,720
Speaker 3: being nuts? Okay, that's a good one, gas Light.

1151
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 4: That's a good one. But the correct answer is when

1152
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 4: you're not here, I'm lonely. So I sit and I

1153
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 4: sip tea, oh thinking about you. And there I'm lonely

1154
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 4: thinking about you. So at late night, I'm sipping tea.

1155
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,000
Speaker 4: And the reason why the songs are the way they

1156
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 4: are because if I was an artist, this is what

1157
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 4: I was saying to you.

1158
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 3: Oh my god, you want to know what you want

1159
00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:30,360

00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:48,000
Speaker 5: The credit card flowers incident. A charge pops up on

00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 5: Shack's credit card. Let's see, let's say checks. Shacks credit

1166
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 5: card bill is on the table and for some reason,

1167
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,760
Speaker 5: and it says two hundred and fourteen dollars at a

1168
00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 5: flower shop. But his girl did not get flowers, and

1169
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 5: she picks up and says, so, who got this bouquet? Russ,

1170
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 5: What would you say?

1171

1174
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 4: was riding up one day on Peachtree and I saw

1175
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 4: some kids. They went up to this old lady. They

1176
00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 4: fucking just took her flowers, and they stopped sucking the

1177
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 4: flowers out. So I went to the flower shop and

1178
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 4: brought some flowers, and I brought them back to the lady,

1179
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 4: and I gave her two hundred dollars. I say, have

1180
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 4: a wonderful day, ma'am.

1181
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 3: You know what's crazy about his answers. His answers are

1188
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 5: most difficult one? Shack leaves his phone on speaker while

1431
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:54,880

1433
01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:00,680
Speaker 9: came into business in like ninety four were so it's

1434
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:02,160
Speaker 9: a must have been like ninety six or something like that.

1435
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:05,200
Speaker 9: I just cut a diamond that's even bigger than the

Speaker 9: thirty nine U diamond and it was in a ring

1438
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:11,479
Speaker 9: and I cut the stone from the rough. It was

1439
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:15,680
Speaker 9: like my first really giant diamond that we caught. And

1440
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:18,280

1488
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:35,920
Speaker 9: center is a very rare yellow diamond. It's thirty five carrots.

1489
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:40,880
Speaker 9: Proximately in the thumb, which is the time stone, which

1490
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:45,360
Speaker 9: is the green stones and emerald, that's about twenty three carrots.

1491
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:49,519
Speaker 9: That stone is extremely, extremely rare, absolutely the best color.

1492
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 9: Every one of these stones about the shack. Every one

1493
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:56,600
Speaker 9: of them, in their own individual right, belongs in a

1494
01:13:56,840 --> 01:14:00,839
Speaker 9: in a separate case in the Fancist jewelry store our museum,

1495
01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 9: and we took six and put them into one work

1496
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:06,320
Speaker 9: of art. I don't think it's ever been done before it,

1497
01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 9: you know. So the green is the emerald. What we

1498
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:13,120
Speaker 9: did is we kind of combined. It was really cool.

1499
01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 9: We wanted the best the experts of both worlds, like

1500
01:14:18,439 --> 01:14:23,120
Speaker 9: creative side, the jeweler side, to be connected the labor,

1501
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:25,840
Speaker 9: the best of what I do and the best of the.

1502
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:27,200
Speaker 3: Marvel does come.

1503
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:29,080
Speaker 4: You didn't make that like a solid gold gold.

1504
01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:33,400
Speaker 9: So because let's let's think about it, Phanos was a brutalist,

1505
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 9: you know, he was the gold like. He wasn't working

1506
01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:39,640
Speaker 9: around with the gold gallet the original files with the

1507
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 9: day that we got the original files to Marvel, we said, okay,

1508
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:45,839
Speaker 9: we're going to make it accurate, script accurate, movie accurate.

1509
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 3: But where we're going to.

1510
01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:51,320
Speaker 9: Make it real the eighteen carrot gold is on the gems.

1511
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:55,280
Speaker 9: That's where we said, our expertise has to be on

1512
01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 9: the gem side, you know. So that was and assembling

1513
01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:03,920
Speaker 9: that was the absolute coolest thing ever. It was my jewelry.

1514
01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:07,519
Speaker 9: How long did that take between all the files and

1515
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 9: you know, changing them over and the jeweler and it's

1516
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:17,240
Speaker 9: a it's a story months months. But actual assembly was,

1517
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 9: believe it or not, It was a night before Comic Con.

1518
01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:22,760
Speaker 9: Was down to the last minute. My jeweler got all

1519
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:26,760
Speaker 9: the stones ready just in time. I was in La

1520
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:31,720
Speaker 9: We stayed up all my assembling these stones, and then

1521
01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 9: it was launched at Comic Con San Diego. I drove

1522
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 9: down to San Diego with the Gauntlet and then we

1523
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:40,280
Speaker 9: launched and the rest is history. We were on every

1524
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:42,599
Speaker 9: every media platform you can imagine in the world.

1525
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 4: I always wanted to ask how you get those damn stones?

1526
01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 3: Where?

1527
01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 4: How like the one in the middle? You tell me

1528
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:54,439
Speaker 4: how much it costs? How do you? I mean, like,

1529
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:55,519
Speaker 4: who do you call to get that?

1530
01:15:56,120 --> 01:15:59,519
Speaker 9: My dad? My dad is one of the biggest experts,

1531
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:03,439
Speaker 9: maybe today alive, the biggest expert in color gems in

1532
01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:08,679
Speaker 9: the world. And some of these stones are like family

1533
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:11,320
Speaker 9: legacy stones. I mean, what we've created here in the

1534
01:16:11,400 --> 01:16:15,360
Speaker 9: One of Ones are utilizing our legacy stones. Let's call

1535
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:17,719
Speaker 9: them the best of the best, the highest of the high.

1536
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,280
Speaker 9: But what we'd want to do is that's just for

1537
01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:23,160
Speaker 9: the One of Ones. But we want to bring this

1538
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:28,200
Speaker 9: stones and values to the world, like we have a

1540
01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:33,680
Speaker 9: an infinity stone the same way they have birthstone, you know,

1541
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:37,240
Speaker 9: Like infinity stone represents power and mind and soul, and

1542
01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:42,280
Speaker 9: these creative writings are maybe the greatest ever. Some of

1543
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:44,040
Speaker 9: this stuff is iconic.

1544
01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 4: So is it known how much his glove is worth

1546
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,640
Speaker 9: I mean the papers, you know, gave a number, you know,

1547
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:52,559
Speaker 9: like I look.

1548
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,759
Speaker 5: At this as what did they say?

1549
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:56,559
Speaker 9: The papers said twenty five million?

1550
01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 4: All right, So.

1551
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:02,599
Speaker 9: I think that the ruby slippers just sold for thirty

1552
01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:03,639
Speaker 9: two million dollars.

1553
01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:06,720
Speaker 5: They don't have a ruby in them, So you think,

1554
01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:08,479
Speaker 5: what one hundred and twenty five mili.

1555
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:12,960
Speaker 9: I think that it's worth a lot. I think it's priceless,

1556
01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,519
Speaker 9: and I think that it represents also the pop culture

1557
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:19,000
Speaker 9: of this generation. I don't think that you could look

1558

Speaker 9: it's not easy to find the sword maker, like you know,

1640
01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:07,639
Speaker 9: but this took about nine months to make. Forts Yeah,

1641
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:12,439
Speaker 9: it's real jet like the bulb or what we call

1643
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,680
Speaker 3: You know, like we we had to make what you.

1644
01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:19,040
Speaker 9: See in the film a CGI, right, so we had

1645
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:21,639
Speaker 9: to kind of like make it reality, like what would

1646
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:22,320
Speaker 9: if it was real?

1647
01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 3: What would it be?

1648
01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:26,800
Speaker 9: And I went through I don't know four or five

1649
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,400
Speaker 9: different versions of like what it would be?

1650
01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:32,480
Speaker 4: Make you feel like a superhero?

1651
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1652
01:22:34,840 --> 01:22:38,320
Speaker 5: Have the actors themselves got to hold any of those pieces.

1653
01:22:38,360 --> 01:22:40,599
Speaker 5: I didn't realize it was CGI in all the movies.

1654
01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:45,240
Speaker 9: Well look, look, the studio obviously has they have props

1655
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:50,080
Speaker 9: right that they use, but those props have nowadays everything

1656
01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:54,519
Speaker 9: has doctored, you know, pieces of CGI attached to it.

1657
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:56,960
Speaker 9: So we had the opportunity to kind of have the

1658
01:22:57,000 --> 01:23:01,720
Speaker 9: only one of one. Because back in the day you

1659
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:03,840
Speaker 9: have to use whatever was on set. You used whatever

1660
01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 9: was on set. Today, no one's gonna want the prop

1661
01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:09,880
Speaker 9: that has little, you know, pieces of C g I

1662
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:12,519
Speaker 9: on it or whatever or plastic gems in it. So

1663
01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:14,639
Speaker 9: when we did it, we kind of like said, oh,

1664
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 9: this will be cool. And you know, one of the

1665
