- 5:36Speaker 3: making music. It's about it's you, your likeliness. You a
- 5:39Speaker 3: brand at the same time too, So alongside of the music,
- 5:41Speaker 3: we're gonna get these brands. And we like to wear
- 5:43Speaker 3: clothes anyway. So while we can't collaborate, why we can't
- 5:46Speaker 3: exchange services with each other. So for me, so it's
- 5:49Speaker 3: like I like BBC, for example, like I'm kind of
- 5:52Speaker 3: like a brain ambasket of from They just give me
- 5:53Speaker 3: clothes and we're gonna wear it every time.
- 5:55Speaker 2: And that's my vulma with true religion. True religion is
- 5:57Speaker 2: another one. I'm a tier one.
- 6:00Speaker 3: I got the camp, the brand, backs of the campaign
- 6:02Speaker 3: until one right now. So basically it's things that they
- 6:05Speaker 3: give you, clothes, take pictures, videos, with any type of content,
- 6:08Speaker 3: and that's what I do. Supreme give me this everything
- 6:11Speaker 3: for me, So I understand that, and I want to

- 9:08Speaker 3: people like all bet got You know what I'm saying.
- 9:11Speaker 4: What gives you? What gives you the drive? Because a
- 9:13Speaker 4: lot of like artists.
- 9:15Speaker 5: You know, there's dope artists in every hood around the world,
- 9:19Speaker 5: but some of them like don't have to drive to
- 9:21Speaker 5: like go shoot the videos. Like when I see your videos,
- 9:23Speaker 5: I see Harlem. You know you out the car, You're
- 9:26Speaker 5: throwing the money. You got the bad beautiful women from Harlem.
- 9:28Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 9:29Speaker 5: First on You know what I mean, Like what gives
- 9:31Speaker 5: you the drive? Because a lot of artists are dope,
- 9:33Speaker 5: but they don't want to like they put it like this.
- 9:38Speaker 5: Even when you've seen Asap Rocky in his first videos,
- 9:40Speaker 5: he was on a motherfucking bike. It was all about
- 9:43Speaker 5: the visuals. Like what I liked about you is every
- 9:46Speaker 5: video is kind of more entertaining, even if you and
- 9:49Speaker 5: cool money is on the corner.
- 9:52Speaker 4: It just was shot crazy. You know what I'm saying.
- 9:54Speaker 3: Like me, he know the shot compositions, He know what
- 9:58Speaker 3: the people want from me, and he knows what I
- 10:00Speaker 3: like as far from video, so he understand. It's like
- 10:02Speaker 3: Cajun I have everybody tailored and it's all everything's in
- 10:05Speaker 3: the house, so we know what we're doing when we
- 10:07Speaker 3: do it. You know what I'm saying, So shout out
- 10:08Speaker 3: to Dre. But yeah, it's just like we want to
- 10:12Speaker 3: make sure that alongside of what you're hearing is appealing
- 10:15Speaker 3: to what you see, you feel what I'm saying.
- 10:17Speaker 2: So it's a whole package with us.
- 10:18Speaker 3: We want our videos to be engaging and creative and
- 10:21Speaker 3: different from everybody else. So we try to stay as
- 10:23Speaker 3: authentic as possible, but creative and out the box as possible,
- 10:26Speaker 3: but also stay in range of hallm and me.
- 10:28Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 10:29Speaker 3: So, and also shooting videos is fun for us. That's
- 10:31Speaker 3: like the aftermath. The hall part is making a song,
- 10:34Speaker 3: performing in videos. That's oh, it's celebration before let's everybody
- 10:38Speaker 3: come outside. Let's let's celebrate what we just put on wax.
- 10:41Speaker 3: That's how I look at this shit.
- 10:42Speaker 5: But how you learn the business side of it? Like
- 10:43Speaker 5: I see you got good management, good producer, videographer, shooting
- 10:48Speaker 5: and videos like what made you like think of the
- 10:51Speaker 5: business part of it too, because like we spoke on
- 10:53Speaker 5: his back there, like yo, there's a lot of artists
- 10:56Speaker 5: that's pretty dope put out dope music, dope producers, but
- 10:58Speaker 5: it's just not reaching. And your manager was like, sometimes
- 11:02Speaker 5: it's the team facts. What made you think, Like I
- 11:04Speaker 5: gotta get the team too, like.
- 11:06Speaker 3: You know, going away without a team, like we said
- 11:08Speaker 3: in in the other room, like the team is essential
- 11:10Speaker 3: and you gotta you gotta have people that understand you
- 11:13Speaker 3: and have your best interest in understanding how to switch
- 11:15Speaker 3: leaderships and roles whenever the moment is right.
- 11:18Speaker 2: Like my team understands me, like you fee.
- 11:20Speaker 3: What I'm saying, and they and they make sure they
- 11:22Speaker 3: got me whenever things need to be tightened up. And
- 11:24Speaker 3: that's what the team is for. Everybody got their own role,
- 11:26Speaker 3: you know know what I'm saying. So we all come
- 11:28Speaker 3: to the table with our own male and it's a
- 11:29Speaker 3: pot look after that. Everybody for me. So I really
- 11:33Speaker 3: genuinely love and believe in my team because they pushed
- 11:36Speaker 3: me into be the artist I am today, you know
- 11:38Speaker 3: what I'm saying. So I got a video and everything
- 11:40Speaker 3: is in the house.
- 11:40Speaker 2: I don't outsource.
- 11:41Speaker 3: I got a videography, yeah, assistant security, booking agent, manager,
- 11:46Speaker 3: I got everything I.
- 11:47Speaker 2: Don't want I see. You got a bachelor's degree right
- 11:50Speaker 2: in criminal justice. That this guy got a degree. You
- 11:59Speaker 2: got to your homework.
- 12:05Speaker 1: So for more or less school shit and doing stuff
- 12:07Speaker 1: like that, right, is that where you get the of
- 12:09Speaker 1: course me let me, let me structure this way and
- 12:12Speaker 1: moving like this. And then my upbringing to my mother
- 12:14Speaker 1: and father like those they own that business, so they
- 12:18Speaker 1: raised me to be that. And then when I went
- 12:19Speaker 1: to school, it's more of than now by myself. So
- 12:21Speaker 1: I have to learn and create the mechanism of being
- 12:24Speaker 1: a business man. And once I got into the music,
- 12:26Speaker 1: at first it was a hobby. But once I started
- 12:28Speaker 1: to get into it and really start getting money, you
- 12:30Speaker 1: got to learn the business.
- 12:31Speaker 2: But why did you go to school for criminal justice? No?
- 12:33Speaker 3: I mean it's two reasons. Because my moms, you know,
- 12:35Speaker 3: she was in a criminal field. She wanted she wanted me,
- 12:38Speaker 3: you know, just to be in that situation. And also
- 12:40Speaker 3: for me as a black man, I wanted to know
- 12:42Speaker 3: and have the knowledge of the love of the Lord,
- 12:44Speaker 3: you feel what I'm saying, and just having the resources
- 12:46Speaker 3: and connects to being that, you know.
- 12:48Speaker 4: Fergie being the hood, like yo, don't let that cop record.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm fighting fighting the boys right now and a
- 12:56Speaker 3: little suit because they wild like I ain't playing with those,
- 12:58Speaker 3: so I'm really on that came for that. Like I
- 13:01Speaker 3: don't like police brutality. I don't like I don't like
- 13:04Speaker 3: none of that, you know what I'm saying. So I
- 13:05Speaker 3: just try to learn it and also use it when
- 13:08Speaker 3: the time is right in the cases like that.
- 13:10Speaker 2: So you wasn't trying to pursue it like as a career.
- 13:12Speaker 2: You just wanted to have it. At first, I did.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Yeah, Like you know, you're young, you don't know what
- 13:17Speaker 3: you want to do. So it was a time to
- 13:18Speaker 3: where it's like, I'm gonna take this seriously. I'm work
- 13:20Speaker 3: for the defense side. I worked for the supervisor relice program.
- 13:22Speaker 3: So instead of you getting time going.
- 13:23Speaker 2: Said the fish. Yeah, first to tell you side, I'm
- 13:31Speaker 2: going to help you to program outside of free. An
- 13:38Speaker 2: in the hood tells.
- 13:41Speaker 3: You gotta know, you gotta know because especially in Harlem
- 13:43Speaker 3: and New York, gott know these cops be bugging out.
- 13:45Speaker 2: So you was taking this serious at first? Yeah, first

- 24:42Speaker 3: So they was already relating to the kids like the
- 24:44Speaker 3: sohos and like you said, the suburban kids and also
- 24:46Speaker 3: the hood tool because they're from Halem.
- 24:49Speaker 5: I'm gonna tell you a story about asp Rocky. He
