I mean, you know, the harder jobs out there, 12 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: definitely in the world. But you know, we sit with 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: artists over and over and over again. We go to shows, 14 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: We travel out of town to go to shows.

We'll sit 17 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: with them multiple times. You know. As we narrow it down, 18 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 1: we talked to you guys. We talk to anyone that 19 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: we come across an industry. We talked to little brothers 20 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: and little sisters and nephews and pretty much everyone, and 21 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: then we start arguing down in a different long long 22 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: meeting when you say seventy five artists, are these people 23 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: that actually have things going or just the guys, No, 24 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: we never do your you know, your next door neighbor, 25 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: We never do your boy, or we never do the 26 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: guys legitimately could potentially make it. Yes, Now, sometimes it's 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: early on some of them. Sometimes they're artists of you know, 28 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: people that we know other artists, and they want to 29 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: get the artists in there, and we know it's a 30 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: little bit early, but we don't say no to that. 31 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: And you never know what's going to happen because we're 32 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: always looking at next year at um. But you know it, 33 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: the whole thing changes in especially the industry and the 34 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: way everything works. Now talk cabastic covering wall done. Let's 35 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: talk about the shooting percentage. Y'all got a pretty good 36 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: shooting percentage when it comes to picking very good covers, helpful. 37 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you've had Kindrick, You've had j Cole, You've 38 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: had Wile, you've had Meek Mill, you've had French Montana, 39 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: people that we didn't even think was gonna happen, like 40 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: Macao Zea, Like you've been pretty good. That picking people 41 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: little vic mensa looks good right now, you know, but 42 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: you know, so yeah, there's definitely be some some good 43 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: ones out there. You have hits and missus. You're trying 44 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: to predict the future. You're trying to take um ten 45 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: year artists and put them on the cover, And I 46 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: don't know how ten's always going to work and blow up, 47 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: but it's fun. The idea is to put different people on. 48 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: You know, we can go do the same people over 49 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: and over again, but this gives people something to talk about. 50 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: This gives people something to look at, and it's exciting 51 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: to see them grow. When people don't make it, do 52 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: you have to call them and be like so people 53 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: who don't make it as getting more difficult every year. 54 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 1: Every year they acting now like you're taking food out 55 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: of their kids' mouth, you know, like they're getting you 56 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: know a little bit more disgruntled. And we don't call 57 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: you up and say, hey, by the way, you didn't 58 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: make it. They wind up finding out because they hear 59 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: that the shoot happened or something. Right, so do you 60 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: know already if they weren't in the shoot, you know, 61 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: I mean they all start hearing a little bit or 62 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: you know, then you have to start watching out because 63 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: the shoot happened, and you don't want to say, well, 64 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: you know, the shoot happened, and you're having these conversations 65 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: and to keep you know, everything in the bag, so 66 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: you don't want to let them know stuff happen. But 67 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: at the same time, so it gets very very political 68 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: more than ever with the turndown, which isn't even a turndown, 69 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: it's just a non follow up get hot. It doesn't 70 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: the cover and the reality of some people are hot. 71 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: It's just we don't know how much that's gonna last, 72 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, because refreshmen, we're looking as you know, the 73 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: longevity of it, you know. Um So sometimes right now 74 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: we don't believe for the future based on the music 75 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: we heard, you know, we're based on your situation, how 76 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: you're signed. Sometimes people are in some jack deals that 77 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: the managers now we're going to let them move. I 78 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,119 Speaker 1: know that you know you're dope, and everybody knows that publicly, 79 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: but your PaperWorks so screwed. It's not going to get anywhere. 80 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: Or they've got such a lineup of a roster that 81 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: they've come behind, you know, the other people that have 82 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: signed that you know, it's another year or so before 83 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna get hot, or you know, it's one song. 84 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: I mean, we're in a situation right now. It's very 85 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: one hit wonder. You know, you get one song and 86 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: you blow the hell up and then we have to 87 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: sit there and be like, what's the chance there's a 88 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: second that could lead you right intof anywhe Now, let's 89 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: talk about the cover, because you guys do have two females. Yeah, 90 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: on the cover, people were debating is they're going to 91 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: be a female at all? Who should it be? And 92 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: this the cover is supposed to be a reflection of 93 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: what's going on in hip hop, right, you know, I 94 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: think that you know, I think that we saw R 95 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: and B last year because RMB was a little bit 96 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: more heavy. We didn't have as many pictures or as 97 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: many artists that were, you know, as actively in the 98 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: conversation with R and B. More with females this year, 99 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,559 Speaker 1: which was great to see. So, you know, we didn't 100 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: really want to be forced to pick between DEJ and Tink. 101 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: You don't really have to. You know, they were treating 102 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: them all as valid artists, not as female artists, not 103 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: as white artists, not as black artists as valid artists 104 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: based on the same credentials for you know, the solo 105 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: album and all that. So we went back and forth. 106 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: I was like, this is a reflection of what's going on. 107 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: They like DEJ, they liked Tank. We believe in both 108 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: of these artists. Another two artist You know there are females, 109 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: but they're just another two artists. You just revealed Dave's 110 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: Loaf and Tank are on the Freshman cover double xel 111 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: fresh and cover. Yeah yeah, yes, yeah, yeah yeah. Who 112 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: else is on the cover? You have it sitting right 113 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: in front of you. I don't have any front he 114 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: took out, Um yes, Love Tink is on the cover. 115 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: Rory tried Lizzie gold Link. I really like mc roy's 116 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: a cool kid, K Camp, Kid Kid, Vince Staples and Start. 117 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're repeating now. I feels like 118 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: K camp is at and K Kid has been around 119 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: for a long time as well. He's about a sophomore cool, 120 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: but a solo album comes out and then the summer, 121 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: so he's technically not a sophomore, you know what I mean? 122 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: If he disappeared today, the catalock's not as extensive, but 123 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: once you dropped that solo album. That's where you get 124 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: the people write up chance, you know what I mean, 125 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: that's what's looked at as your big debut. So he 126 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: hasn't had that he's built up, but Interscope's holding ready 127 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: to pull the trigger on him for the rollout, and 128 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: they went hard for a freshman look for him. But 129 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: although that's a guy who's had a few hit records there, 130 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: and you can't deny a few hits climate Key Camp 131 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,799 Speaker 1: was a big argument, you know, because because much respect 132 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: to k Camp not as recognizable, you know, it walks 133 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: into a club, you don't get the same feeling that 134 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: you recognize him like that, but you can't deny the hits. 135 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: And what people kept on saying to us over and over, 136 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: which you know, like a Todd Moskwitz, like people we 137 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: respect in the industry that Kevin Lyles would be like, 138 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: you can't deny when people have hit records, you know, 139 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: And so we had to keep coming back to k 140 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: Camp on that being like, well, the kid knows how 141 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: to make hit records and he's got a building behind 142 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: him with Interscope that's ready to go. You gotta acknowledge 143 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: that set up from some of the other ones who 144 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: are hot but you know, don't have the next place 145 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: to move because of whatever their situation is. All these 146 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: are signed. They made it on the cover this year. No, 147 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: gold Link's not signed. I don't think Shike Lizzie's got 148 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: a major label deal. He's your management, he's got distribution, 149 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: he's got distribution at all. But I don't really know 150 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: what the actual label deal. There's a ship machine behind everything, 151 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, or we signed, yeah, I want to say 152 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: trouble and getting wrong, but maybe I did. Yeah, No, 153 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: gold Link, Maco just signed. You know, he's been coach 154 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: k quality control and they just got a deal. Um 155 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: was that Capital Capital? Yeah? Town. I don't want to 156 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to know if anybody um that just 157 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: got a deal Tink. You know what's up with Tank? 158 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: So yes, you know, I mean kid kids through GANE, 159 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: but that's not a major you know, it's their own things. 160 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: So there's and I'm sure there's stuff in the works 161 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: on every angle with everybody. But yeah, I wonder what 162 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: this cover does. It cause problems in the future because say, 163 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: you you know, didn't put somebody on as a freshman, 164 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: then they blow up and then you asked him to 165 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: do something later and they're like, nah, I'm cool. Yeah, no, 166 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean definitely. But also, you know, let's talk. We're 167 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: talking about rappers. Rappers like to see their faces on 168 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: the cover of magazines, Like I'm not gonna turn down 169 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: a cover because I didn't get you know, we're still understands. 170 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: You know. That's not to say, hey, we're still understands, 171 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: but that counts for something. So they want to see 172 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: themselves there. I don't know where, I'm just looking. And 173 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: let's keep it real. There is artists who have turned 174 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: it down because they thought they were too big to 175 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: be on the Freshman cover, felt like they could get there. Anybody, 176 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: that's the whole thing. Anybody turned it down. The shit 177 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: nobody turned it down this year. Some funny responses from them, um, 178 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: not funny, I don't want to be weird, but not 179 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: such responsive responses from the hiding Next Dorm mcne in camp. 180 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: You know that they didn't seem so interested and in 181 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: the feedback that we got, so we didn't had that's 182 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: the biggest feedback we got of the uh, the not 183 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: interested and that was a little bit hazy too. In 184 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: their movement so much and they've got Drake. Remember Asa 185 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: Racky did that interview and he said that mcconan gave 186 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: him some LSD and then he looked at him and 187 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: he looked like a Buddha with a Jerry curls. That's 188 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: so accurate, Rocke for that accurate description of that fat 189 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: school we doo sounding. Boy. There's anybody in the past 190 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: that you guys missed off the Freshman cover? They said, damn, 191 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: they should have made the cover. Yeah, it was the 192 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: biggest miss I would say, Drake, Yeah, I mean Drake 193 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: is The problem with the Drake thing is that it 194 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: he blew up through the middle of the year. So 195 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: when you come up with the cover and then all 196 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: of a sudden, this guy comes out a few months 197 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: after whatever cover you have and blows up off of 198 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: Little Wade's third album too, going on tour with him. 199 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: I'll never forget when we were picking Freshman, Drake was 200 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: not even in the conversation. And then I remember we 201 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: get over to to do this with another DJ and 202 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: they've mentioned to us something of the no somebody called 203 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: in from Toronto and was like, what about Drake, And 204 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: we were like, wasn't really even part of the conversation 205 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: and a few months later that all kind of took over. 206 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: So you have that problem of there's only so much 207 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: time you can get something done in a year, the 208 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 1: timing of you're shooting it, you're making it. This is 209 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: not just about digital. We're physically creating something, going to 210 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: print with it, you know, proof reading it, copy editing it, 211 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 1: shooting it and everything. So you've got all of that time, 212 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: plus your sales and you're advertising, to figure out to 213 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: build this thing, and things can happen in between. So 214 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: Drake can be a miss. I get a little defensive 215 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: about it because it wasn't a possibility right then. Nikki 216 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: kind of falls into that category. So when you came 217 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: around to Nikki, that one happened so fast she was 218 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: right on the Drake tail already in the camp over 219 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: there that she didn't need it because she's already with Drake. 220 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: So we did them the cover after I remember with 221 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: Drake and Nick, and that was the way we could 222 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: do the follow up. You know, I look back, I 223 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: like Waka. You know, I will never forget um Gucci 224 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: saying to us du waka more like du oj and 225 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: he's like du Waka and we're like oh OJ and 226 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: you know, Waca would be a better girl look than OJ. Right, 227 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: Guzzi has his own column. Now, Yeah, I remember that 228 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: cam roon and all that song and everything, and we 229 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 1: were excited for ah minute there. Yeah, Flock is still 230 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: going around, So yeah, that one. That one hurts me. 231 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: And I know that he's not the biggest rapper and 232 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: biggest success story, but I feel like he's such a 233 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: freshman feeling type of dude. I hate that he's not 234 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 1: part of the history. Chinks. I don't know if we 235 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: missed Chinks. I think that Um, I think Chinks is 236 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: kind of on that in between is that you know, 237 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: we didn't get him early and he started to bubble 238 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: now it felt a little bit late. You know, he 239 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: was a little bit older. We always had respect for him. 240 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: He always came up to the office and played his 241 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: music rip. It's been tragic to hear all of that 242 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: of what happened. But there are the guys that kind 243 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: of fall in between, and you don't know what's going 244 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: to happen, and you don't know when their time's gonna shine. 245 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: And then they start to get a little bit older 246 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: and you're not, and then they're kind of in their 247 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: career already and going back to them. You don't know 248 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: if that's disrespectful how they feel where they want to 249 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: fit in next to the twenty year old or not. 250 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: That's French. I felt like French had been around for 251 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: a while. The difference is how much they come to 252 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: us and they want it. French wanted it. French is there, 253 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: you know, I mean Chin French wasn't. Chins wasn't there 254 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 1: like French was, you know when when French went for 255 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: his campaign with it. And that's part of it is 256 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: that we see your desire for it so much that 257 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: becomes it. But I don't know. I guess French was in, 258 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: you know, in mid to late twenties at that point. 259 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: Twenty seven twenty six is about three or four years 260 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: ago now, and I just happened to look up his 261 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: age thirty year. You know, we've had older ones. I 262 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: think yellow Wolf was probably the oldest, and he was 263 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: on the It's about it. But at the same time 264 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: we were very also newer to freshman I think it 265 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: was our third or fourth class and figuring it out. 266 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: Who's the biggest flop? The person you put on probably 267 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: oh J the juice man, I you know, feel bad. 268 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: It's probably the Jay the juice man. I mean, you 269 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: know John Connor last year. I don't really know what 270 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: happened that Dre you know, backing didn't really do too much, 271 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: um like it did for other ones. I don't really 272 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: know what happened there. I'm sure there's other ones, but 273 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: i'd have to look at the list. I forget who 274 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: gets honorable mentioned this year? Who were some people that 275 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: very strongly could have passed? I love Catch, I really 276 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: am interested in Capch. I think Capchi's interesting. I think 277 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: it was a little early for him. Um right, I'm 278 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: talking NonStop and Miranda, what do you think? Um? Another 279 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: one that we considered was Eric Bellinger. He was cool. 280 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: They did a little bit more that would a little 281 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: R and B heavy. Um yeah, I say cap like 282 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: a lot. But we thought that stew it a little 283 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: too female R and B for the x Excel audience. 284 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: But we were interested in her, and we didn't really 285 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: know how to deal with that one. And you know, 286 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: I had a few throwdowns and the staff meetings about those. 287 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: And it's not that we don't support, we just don't 288 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: know how it fits in, right, you know, whatever the 289 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: scheme of things are um, so that becomes part of it. 290 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: You know how many of our people we because I 291 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: remember we sat up here and talked about who we 292 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: thought should make the list. The only president I was 293 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: I was on Tank heavy. You know, I've been campaigning 294 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: for Tank for a while. We're ware that's it for me. 295 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: And then I I got to go to the Shoe 296 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: for that. I went to the Shoe. Never put me 297 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: on the rory. Going to the Shoe and seeing Roy, 298 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, he's kind of dope. And I started 299 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: listening to his album like he's very dope. Yeah, where 300 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: he's a talented kids. That's going to be interesting. I 301 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: thought Detroit Sha would have been on there, but I 302 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: guess not really still a little too earlier. I think 303 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: she's dope. Though in the beginning we were really considering 304 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 1: Bobby Shmurder too, but he kind of you know, he 305 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been available for the Shoe. Yeah, that was 306 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: the hard thing. I'm in to see when he got 307 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: locked up in December. She was in April. You know 308 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: last year, a few years ago, we had Chief Kief 309 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: and he had been locked up. But we knew Chief 310 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: hef was getting out and when we had put him 311 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: I'm the cover, he wasn't locked up, you know, with 312 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: with murder, that's not really an end in sight exactly 313 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: right now that you can guarantee, because he should have 314 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: been on it. He had, he had the music to 315 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: be on it, and he still has records that ring 316 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: in the club, whether it's body at the time, at 317 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: the time. Yeah, well he also hadn't had the opportunity 318 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: now to record circulating that. Yeah. Now he hasn't had 319 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: the opportunity to promote himself obviously the way he could 320 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: have been. So who knows. So we talked about it 321 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: with him in the new issue. So he speaks on it, 322 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: okay about him not you know, we got we spoked 323 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: on him, spoke to him while he was locked up 324 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: there is locked up and and got his take on it, 325 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: which you know, he was frustrated, but it's disappointed.

It's 346 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: a big crossover crowd, like you know, yeah, I played 347 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: the club last night. It was seventy eighty percent Caucasian, 348 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: and they knew My Way.

My mom told 351 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: me she liked that song. The other Okay, and she 352 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: comes to Freshman. She was like that kid at freshman 353 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: I heard that song, you know, so I think that's interesting. 354 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: It's kind of an interesting and in the sight where 355 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: he sings, you know, he doesn't wrap, so we thought 356 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: that was interesting. And it's freestyle I raps, but in sight, 357 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: in the sight where he really sings. So we were 358 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: surprised by that that we thought that was an interesting look. 359 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: You know, he's very quiet and at first you think 360 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of an attitude. Miranda I think 361 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: got into a fight with him that he didn't even 362 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: get into with her because she thought he was giving 363 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: her an attitude and he wasn't. He's like, I didn't 364 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: say any So he's a very sweet kid, which is 365 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: interesting that I think people have embraced him so far 366 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: for that. And three records can't be denied these days 367 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: because they're huge off.

All Right, 388 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: the final question for you and Miranda, this is the 389 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 1: pressure question. The list is out. Who's gonna be the 390 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: head of this freshman Class's gonna be the one that goes, 391 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: Oh damn, but Tink Betty or or Tink I get 392 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: I say both I think Fretty and Take. I mean, 393 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: I it's hard because you want to support them all. 394 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: You just picked them all, you know. Um, But I 395 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: think Fetty's got a great setup, and I think Tink 396 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: is gonna surprise some people. I think that day she's 397 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: surprised a few people that they really some of the 398 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: guys really weren't sure what to do there. You know, 399 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: after she after her cipher and the freestyle, she bodied 400 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: the cipher and Timberland was there and you have him 401 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: screaming in the back room. We had to edit around 402 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: all his screaming. I was like, please, you know, but no, 403 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: she bodies the cipher and she bodies the freestyle and 404 00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: everybody's everybody's dope. But personally I was affected by that, um, 405 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: by her, by her performance the most. I don't want 406 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: to say it's just because the female thing that was 407 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: a big part of it. Um, you know, because you're like, yeah, 408 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: you're doing it for the girls. But also, I mean 409 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: the dudes shut up. Did yeah, you know, they absolutely did? 410 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: And that always great gold links, great gold links for 411 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 1: a freestyle is grank. Everybody's talented this year. It's just 412 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: as a lot of new artists and it takes less 413 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: for them to blow up than ever, So it feels 414 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: like our job got harder. Primere River, you know those 415 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: my three though take is my head of the class 416 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: than Freddie Wappin didn't roar. Yeah, you never know what 417 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: some of them are gonna, you know. O Matho has 418 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: got quite a personality, quite a personality. You can do 419 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: some stuff with that, you know, And so it'll be 420 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: interesting to see how they all unfold. And people are 421 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: already campaigning for next year. I'm sure you know, they 422 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: campaign like crazy. It's amazing. I mean it's great, you know, 423 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: thank gosh, it's like that, you know, thank god we 424 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: have that success. But yeah, it's crazy, especially in this 425 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 1: day aage when people don't necessarily don't care about magazines anymore. Yeah, 426 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, I mean they don't care about magazineymore, for 427 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: they don't read the art calls. They want to be 428 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: on the cover.

And maybe we'll do it well because 433 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: the breakfast ups get the cover in the back freshman, 434 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: I say, freshman and a Gucci main also has an 435 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: advice column, which I think is interesting.
