• 5:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, that is that's what Liar was. Anyways, Liar
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: was about that of being like fighting against my own
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: inner monologue.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: What does that do for you? And I'm cliff noting
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: the interview because I know we're tight on time. Where
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: you're at mentally now, right when we first heard your music.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: You were a different guy in a different place.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: You started to see success, started to see number one
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: different places.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: What is it doing for you? Now? Were the best
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: place you've been as long as we've known for you?

  Speaker 4: The last word you heard on save Me before the
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: ooh was life has shattered my hopes and my dreams
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: just between save Me and twenty twenty and I'm not okay,
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: but we're all gonna be all right. There starts to
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: be a little hope and then, liar, you start to
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: hear me now standing up against that voice that helped
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: me down for so long. Like I hadn't talked about
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: this yet, but I gotta feel that my next album
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: is going to be dramatically different, like sonically, subject wise,
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: like I think it's going to be a complete left
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: turn on jelly Row. You know, because my heart's so different,
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: you can you can hear it in the music. I've
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: been fighting this demon for so long that you're starting
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: to see me start to win. It's like watching Rocky
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: You've been watching me get my ass kicked for nine rounds,
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: and all the sudden it's like, hold on.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So yeah, yeah, that's what it's.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: That's how it feels every time I run down my
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: steps right now, listen, I know we got a rap.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: We talked about this being another number one song.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Every song feels like it's special to you, Especially the
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: radio singles feel like they're telling a story of who
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: you are.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: This one ringing that bell as well? Does it mean
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: more than the others?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: I think this one means first of all, everyone, every
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: time you get another one, it means more than the
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: others because your best song is your most recent one.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Man, there's no greater feeling as an artist.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know how many artists are afraid to tell
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: you that that straight up, but there's nothing cooler than
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: ending your set with a newer song.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: It's nothing feels more like I am on the right
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: path right now. But also, man, I love that my journey,
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: especially on radio, which has been my biggest dream songs too.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: Radio speaks directly to my streaming audience. Obviously, radio where
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: it broke me, I got broke here. It speaks to
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: my story, and I think that it's just you know,
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: I think it's more of us showing that jelly roll
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: story like this one means a lot because it's empowering.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: That's what means a lot is that we're like actively together. Now,
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: we've actively stood together and held each other and cried
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: together and coombed and swayed side to side, and now
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: we're shaking our fist at the powers to be you
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: know what I mean.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: That's what's cool about this song.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: I love you, Bob, Thanks for coming over here, dude,
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: you want to hear The worst part about this is
• 8:32
