• 1:05
  Speaker 3: that joint is crazy.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: When you broke break fire code, does the venue come
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to you and say hey.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: The one of the fatillitators of the building was like, hey, yo,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we can't let nobody through these doors.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Like it's cool, but let's be mindful.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You go to like certain events and they were like, yo,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: we have to see certain people leave to let more
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: people in. So yeah, I just got to hang out
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: wait for somebody to walk out.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: But that was my goal though, Like cause last year,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: last year, I've seen some empty seats and I'm like
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: anti empty seat.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, now, let's oversell this joint.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: So even when those people cancel, we still got like
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: enough people in the building to pack it out.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I got to listen to your new album. When is
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the new album coming out?
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: August twenty ninth?
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So is that next Friday? It is? Yeah. I don't
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: know why I thought the name was the Last Level
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: because the untitled link I got, I think it's what
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: it am? I tripping? Was that like what it was
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: titled in the untitled Yo?
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: So the company that master date is called Last Level.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, because I'm like, yeah, that's kind of a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: tight name Last.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Loud, but I tell you, but that's like a retirement.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: So what's the name of the album, viadlasa Okay, so
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: explain that. Yeah, yeah, Vielrosa is translated into the pathway
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: or the sorrowful road. It's the road that Jesus walked
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: on when he was carrying his cross, you know what
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, And so we all got across to carry.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Now the album don't sound like a sorrowful album, right,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: but if you look at the story of Jesus, when
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: he got through that road, you know what I'm saying,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: he unlocked the promise that he had for us, and
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: so it's really an album about God's promise on your life.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you have an out The outro on the album
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: is crazy, oh brother.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: We try to add like more musicality and some heartfelt
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: tunes to really move people.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: It's crazy because it's like the entire album is like
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: super just back to back to back, just and everything
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: kind of just like transitions into each other like seamlessly.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: But it feels like it's like an album full of singles,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: but you have like a record like the outro on there,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: you know where you're just like, oh, this is this
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: is beautiful.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's definitely I would say a lot of
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: singles on there, but there's some in there that's just
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: the substance slaps. You know what I'm saying, like like
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: not my job, you know what I'm saying. I'm talking
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: about being a believer in spaces where folks don't believe. Yeah,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: that's like one of my favorites right now. And the
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: intro to the intro is a slapper.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: But like the walk by Face record.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: That's to me, that's like that's one of the most
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: anticipated ones that I'm seeing like on the internet right now.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: It's like the G Easy one and the Kamia one
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: went crazy bro.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the features on this project or if
• 3:47

  Speaker 1: methods on this album as well.

  Speaker 3: the Soil started to tapping in with us, and so
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: we started getting records with them and they came out
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: to be good records. So like you know, let's let's
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: let's put it put it together for you?

  Speaker 1: What was it like doing a joint project with la

• 9:15
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying that it's doing what California Love did,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: but I would say it's low key on the way.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's got that energy. Obviously there's like ah,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: I would say, I would say, for like a California anthem.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Obviously not like us as a kind of that in
• 9:29

  Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh, she started singing some mac dre lyrics, right.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: She was like, oh no, ray me, but no, I'm
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: not an R and B.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: That's fine. Yeah, but like like obviously like me as
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: like somebody who like respects mac Dre for what he means,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: you know, to you know, I was like, what are
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you singing? Yeah?
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's like if you're from a bab Meanwhile,
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: cooks over there like yay, yay. You see the first
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: three words I said, he did this. Yeah, it's like
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: a Negro spiritual Sure, you know, it's.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Not into the bay for you.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Is there is there anything that you feel like, because
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: you know, I feel like you've kind of broken down
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: the barriers of people like I don't feel like a
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: lot of people even I was talking to Orlando Davis,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: who's a PD from Tampa and I'm on the radio
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: out there. I do nights out there. But he was like, yeah,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the Miles Minni kid. It's crazy. It's because I had
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: to be told he's a Christian artist. He's like and
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: then I heard the Method song again and I was like, oh,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: oh here it now.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean to be honest, with you.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: That's always been a goal of mine to like make
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: music in such a way that is palatable for everybody.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: But when you sit down and really dissect it, it's like,
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: oh no, he talking about something that could inspire my soul, right,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: you feel me?
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: That's all?
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's and that's how you get into these spaces
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Like I don't want to like exclude myself, you know
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: what I mean, because like if everything is labeled Christian, Christian,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: Christian on everything, then then why would the Gonna Say
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Words book me for a halftime show unless it's a
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: faith and family night, you know what I'm saying. Or
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: why would the public school give me the perform at
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: half at at lunch unless it's the Christian club? Are you?
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Are you doing nightclub stuff.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Just like like la function stuff.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: So my thing is because I think that's dope. I
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: think that's what you should be doing. But I think
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: there's other artists who might be in your lane in
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: the past that might be like, and I can't go
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: everybody's in there drinking and sinning and shit. So so
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: but for you, it's like your music is their slaps.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: So it's like you gotta kind of go with this
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: that you gotta go. You gotta go where the people are.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: You know, it pops in that environment, you know what
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: I'm saying.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: And you know, we get the backlash from from a
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: lot of people like why are you in these environments
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: with these kind of people? Like even even at the
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: scam Joint when I was with Ogz and Pil and
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: you and and Nicod.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Are like, what are you doing over there with those people?
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: It's like, bru, this this is where, this is where
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: we belong, you know what I'm saying, Especially like if
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: you want to look at it through a religious context,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: like the Bible say, be the.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Light of the world. But if you're not out in
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: the world, how you're gonna.

  Speaker 1: Do you think because I was talking with Chance, right,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: I think Chances, like I think the Coloring Book album
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: was like a perfect example of like a great album
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: that had like Christian undertones in it. But yes, do
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: you do you look at a guy like Chance and
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: like kind of like see what he was able to do?
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: And you know, because Chance is like a huge artist.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's massive, He's a superstar, right, but he's
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: also very very like outwardly like open about his faith.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Do you ever do you look at Chance ever for
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: any inspiration?
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Absolutely?
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: A lot of what he does is the blueprint, you
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Like for him to be on
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: that level of impact, fame, notoriety, impact, and for him
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: to talk about God the way that he does and
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: for it to be received and he's not being preachy
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: about it right like that that like how he did that?
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Man is?
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: It definitely inspired me? Man I feel like we could
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: run that same play.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Did you listen to this new album for sure? Did
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: you listen to the song Letters?
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: I did?
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I did? It's definitely it's a at the church.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: It is it is. He has some thoughts and some
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: words for megachurches and how they may close the doors
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: and certain people that need et cetera, et cetera.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's an important conversation I have.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: So do you feel like because I feel like a
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: lot of people get turned off by that kind of
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: shit where they're like, yo, man, I don't like it
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: because you see a lot of these guys on TV
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: and you see they got private jets and they're like
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: and it feels like you got your brand it's called
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: christ Like. It doesn't feel very christ like to you know,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: live on you know, living multimillion dollar crazy mansions and
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: have a bunch of airplanes and rose races and all
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: this stuff, and yeah, it feels very very un christ like,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: if you will, I.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Can see that, yeah for sure. So like, I love
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: having a conversation, man, because there's two sides to it.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: On one side, a lot of these men of God
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: may have the appearance of them being sleazy, but a
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: lot of them are best selling authors, so they get
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: a lot of money from like the stuff. That so right,
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: So I'm throwing on a flag towards those people. But
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: there's definitely some people that do take the church money
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: and upgrade their lives with it in some outlandish ways,
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: and so that that's easy to attest.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm talking about what's the uh, the real
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: creepy preacher with the eyes.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Bro, I don't know. I knew he was gonna bring
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: him up. What's Kenneth Copeland?
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I watched this documentary. There's this guy
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: on YouTube who like infiltrated his like compound.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Oh I think I know what you're talking about, and
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: this was.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Like maybe a month ago, month, month and a half ago,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: that dude, right, So I guess he has been like
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: taking money because he's supposedly supposed to have been like creating.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: This like.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Like a community, this whole community and like university and all,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: and he's been like collecting money for this thing for
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: like forty years and it still hasn't been built. But
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: this dude, Kenneth Copeland is the richest preacher in America.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: I think I think he's I think he's got more
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: money than Joe Ostine. I think he's number one. But
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: that dude is like and by all accounts he's he
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: seems like a sick ass fool like he does not
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: seem like.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know much about him. I just know that
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: video that you're talking about with the eyes like the
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: Tyler Perry.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: He's like he's hardcore, maga like psycho like dudees like
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: outside dog like he's he's an interesting cap. But I
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: think that dude is probably like the poster child of
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: like uh.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: First or yeah first, Sure, you know what I mean.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: It's just you know, I learned a long time ago,
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: or I made the decision a long time ago, to
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: not let Christians take me away from Christ.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying smart because like I don't,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I don't put my trust in man, put my trust
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: in God.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: That's what Chance was saying. He said he was a
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: little conflicted by that record, and he sent it to
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: his preacher because he was like, I don't want to
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Uh what did he say? He's so he has a
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: fourth or fifth verse on there where he was talking
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: about the wrap into the body, and he was like,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: my preachers told me to add that.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. She was like, I didn't want to. I didn't
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: want to take anything away from the body by criticizing
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the church.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: If that makes sense, that's so good because oftentimes, yeah,
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of a lot of artists they criticize the
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: church without you know what I'm saying, cleaning it up
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: in a way that doesn't turn people away from the church.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: So that's a good move.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: What is your give me your bay area? Like, uh,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: if you had to give me your top let's say,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: let's say, let's go Barria Anthems, give me your top
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: five Baria Anthems.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Oh you're going crazy, I've seen you. Ask Sweety a
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: similar question.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: I asked herd Mount Rushmore of the of nor.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: Cal and she gave you Hago artists.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: It was like, did you say the jacka oh.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Jacker from my city, Jacker from my city. Okay, okay,
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: so so Bay area anthems.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Now, when you say anthems, I think about songs that
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: you could play in the Bay and everybody would know,
• 18:58
