- 1:04Speaker 2: sports fandom life.
- 1:05Speaker 3: Y'all got it.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You and I mean Blast was the one who was
- 1:08Speaker 1: doing the trolling. You were there for that.
- 1:12Speaker 3: He's looking good for y'all right now that I'm not
- 1:14Speaker 3: gonna I'm just saying it's looking I like it. I
- 1:17Speaker 3: like what's going on.
- 1:19Speaker 1: I mean, look, we got I own a night club
- 1:21Speaker 1: in Arizona. What you've been to.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I like the fact we got Drey Michelle's baby daddy
- 1:25Speaker 2: on the team now because at least I know, like
- 1:27Speaker 2: we could book Drea for like thirty five hundred bucks
- 1:29Speaker 2: every two weeks.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Other than that, I don't know. I don't know what
- 1:32Speaker 1: you're liking that.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Maybe give me some optimism because I'm not liking shit.
- 1:36Speaker 3: I just like how bro, I feel like Jayalen gonna
- 1:38Speaker 3: get out there and flourish.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Yeah, a little double shooting guard for the seventeenth time. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:44Speaker 2: let's make Devin Booker play point guard more? Are you,
- 1:49Speaker 2: like full Lake a Clipper fan? Now that you know
- 1:51Speaker 2: obviously Harden's having a good run. The team looks really good.
- 1:54Speaker 3: I'll never not be a Laker fan.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Right, But you know, Okay, Clippers versus Lakers, watch and
- 2:00Speaker 2: conference finals, hypothetically your boys on the Clippers, who you
- 2:06Speaker 2: really going for?
- 2:08Speaker 3: So I'm at the game, sitting with the homies in
- 2:11Speaker 3: the Kobe Jersey.
- 2:14Speaker 1: But let's say hard and get you the seats courtside
- 2:16Speaker 1: Kobe Jersey.
- 2:17Speaker 3: Wow, I respect it.
- 2:20Speaker 1: You gotta stay down.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Everybody gotta respect it. Man, that's Lake show, you know.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we'll see what happens with the feels
- 2:26Speaker 2: like Lebron's not too happy right now.
- 2:28Speaker 3: But le Bron is Bron. Lucas team man, Lucas on
- 2:32Speaker 3: Ozmpic looking good, Luca the Truth.
- 2:37Speaker 1: You know, yes, I mean he is. He's all time
- 2:38Speaker 1: white for sure.
- 2:39Speaker 3: Lucas Lucas the Truth.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Yeah, he's up there.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Man.
- 2:42Speaker 2: He's an all time white guy in the NBA for sure.
- 2:44Speaker 2: It's like Larry Bird, Luca Jokic. I don't even know
- 2:47Speaker 2: if it's in that order.
- 2:48Speaker 3: It might be Jokic.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Jokic is probably the best white ever. I think when
- 2:54Speaker 2: it all goes down, we're gonna be like, I think
- 2:56Speaker 2: he might be the he might end up being like
- 2:58Speaker 2: top two or three center of all time.
- 3:00Speaker 3: He's cold, bro, and then he just don't care.
- 3:03Speaker 1: That's it just makes you so frustrated because he will
- 3:05Speaker 1: just launch these shots like he'd like. It looks so ugly.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I just I don't like how you discredited Steve Nash
- 3:12Speaker 3: and Jason Williams.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Listen, I'm a big nat First of all, Jason Williams
- 3:16Speaker 2: is not in this conversation. An and one mixtape highlight
- 3:19Speaker 2: reel Ah. We loved it though, like the white Chocolate
- 3:22Speaker 2: was great, but relax, Steve Nash, I'm a Sun's fan,
- 3:25Speaker 2: two time MVP. One of those MVP should have been Shocks,
- 3:29Speaker 2: but Steve Nash is up there. He's the top five
- 3:31Speaker 2: white for sure. But I don't think you could. I
- 3:33Speaker 2: mean when you got Jokic, Luca and then and then
- 3:37Speaker 2: the great White Larry Bird, then it's Nash and stocked
- 3:42Speaker 2: in and uh, you gotta chill with that. Kurtkur again,
- 3:48Speaker 2: great coach, better coach than player. What's going on though?
- 3:52Speaker 1: Man?
- 3:52Speaker 2: Obviously the new project's out. It's been out for what
- 3:54Speaker 2: about a month and a half now.
- 3:56Speaker 3: Yeah, man, the language man out now on. It's rolling
- 4:00Speaker 3: right now. We're getting ready to dive into Me and
- 4:03Speaker 3: Nip second album.
- 4:05Speaker 2: YO, talk to me about this Nipsey project because we've
- 4:10Speaker 2: all been like hearing about there's there's a lot of
- 4:15Speaker 2: music in the Tuck that nip was working on.
- 4:18Speaker 3: When is what give me the details of this Nipsey album? Man, Well,
- 4:22Speaker 3: it's you know from you know, back then, like me
- 4:26Speaker 3: and Bro is just creating and creating and creating it.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Is there no pressure part two? Or you got a
- 4:30Speaker 1: new title.
- 4:31Speaker 3: Or it's definitely no pressure part two? But yeah, you
- 4:37Speaker 3: know we we we got so many ideas and so
- 4:39Speaker 3: many you know, playlists we put together. So this is
- 4:42Speaker 3: one you know, just coming together and you know, linking
- 4:46Speaker 3: with Sam, you know, Black Salmon and just all money
- 4:48Speaker 3: and in general and just trying to do it right,
- 4:51Speaker 3: you know, do do what makes sense and make sure
- 4:52Speaker 3: everybody feel comfortable with what's going on. You know what
- 4:55Speaker 3: I'm saying.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's probbly important to know that.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Like, you know, what I appreciate about what Sam and
- 5:02Speaker 2: those guys have done is they haven't just put because
- 5:05Speaker 2: you know, when Tupac died, there was so much music
- 5:07Speaker 2: that came out. Even when Biggie died, there was like
- 5:10Speaker 2: a weird album that had a bunch of verses on
- 5:12Speaker 2: it and I feel like they've been very intentional with like, Yo,
- 5:16Speaker 2: we're not gonna do nothing that Nipsey wouldn't have done
- 5:18Speaker 2: himself or wasn't already intending on doing.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, I feel like they stressed that, you
- 5:23Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, like wholeheartedly. I feel like, I
- 5:27Speaker 3: don't know, it's almost like we all got this this
- 5:32Speaker 3: thing we want to protect, you know what I'm saying.
- 5:33Speaker 3: We want to do it right, you want to do
- 5:35Speaker 3: it in honor it Bro, And you know, to be honest,
- 5:39Speaker 3: you know, it was hard to even think about any
- 5:41Speaker 3: music with Bro. You know what I'm saying, since it's passing,
- 5:43Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I wasn't just like musically,
- 5:46Speaker 3: you know, I kind of just left it, you know, right,
- 5:50Speaker 3: But you know Sam kind of reached out and he
- 5:53Speaker 3: was ready to do it. So it's like, you know,
- 5:56Speaker 3: pull speed ahead.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:57Speaker 2: So are these records records you guys had already kind
- 6:00Speaker 2: of started while he was here.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Yeah for sure, because we already did. You know. It's
- 6:05Speaker 3: not like we took like verses and it's just big.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Well maybe like I mean, looks, I know how the
- 6:09Speaker 2: studio is. Sometimes maybe you get like eighty percent down
- 6:12Speaker 2: of the song. Yeah, maybe you never finish it. Maybe
- 6:14Speaker 2: maybe there's like a brit maybe you cut a bridge
- 6:16Speaker 2: that you don't like, or like a melody, you know.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we we we linked with you know,
- 6:21Speaker 3: the goats, you know what I'm saying. We got Mikey Keys,
- 6:23Speaker 3: we got actual Folly fifte rants, my guy Mars. You know,
- 6:28Speaker 3: it's a lot of genius. It's mixed by Ali you
- 6:30Speaker 3: know in these rooms, you know a lot of creatives,
- 6:32Speaker 3: and you know, we just if anything just elevated the sound.
- 6:36Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Nothing, nothing, We can go
- 6:38Speaker 3: and change too much. We wanted to leave it like
- 6:40Speaker 3: as it was.
- 6:41Speaker 2: For one hundred is his birthday is actually tomorrow, trout
- 6:47Speaker 2: to him. And it's got the Hey did the commemorative
- 6:50Speaker 2: metro cards for the bus?

- 7:33Speaker 2: He's going crazy, stadium crazy, arena crazy, noo crazy.
- 7:37Speaker 3: What's crazy? I think he's arena crazy crazy? Is okay? Possibly? Yeah? Possibly?
- 7:44Speaker 3: For sure? For sure arena crazy. Okay, you're going crazy
- 7:48Speaker 3: right now.
- 7:48Speaker 1: You're dropping a little like bread crumbs.
- 7:50Speaker 3: I'm trying.
- 7:51Speaker 1: My head's thinking, Okay, who would who would make sense?
- 7:54Speaker 3: Man? I hope already said too much, you saying, don't
- 7:57Speaker 3: even be bad if you man I hope always said
- 7:59Speaker 3: too much. But that we got some shit on there. Bro.
- 8:01Speaker 2: It is crazy because like you've had, like you have
- 8:03Speaker 2: such a great chemistry with Nip and then like you
- 8:06Speaker 2: roll into having this amazing relationship with Blast and you
- 8:10Speaker 2: guys have classics together. Six tape series has been incredible,
- 8:15Speaker 2: and then he's on the new single that you guys
- 8:17Speaker 2: are pushing to go best friend record? Could you speak
- 8:21Speaker 2: to just how easy is it for you guys to
- 8:23Speaker 2: get cause I feel like you guys could just put
- 8:26Speaker 2: a six tape out every six months if you wanted to,
- 8:28Speaker 2: because it feels like your guys, this chemistry is just
- 8:30Speaker 2: there where it's like, yeah, we're getting the studio, we could.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Probably bang out eight records, Like yeah, what's that? What's
- 8:35Speaker 1: that like?
- 8:36Speaker 2: To just have somebody that you're able to kind of
- 8:39Speaker 2: mesh with on some like you know, Pipping and Jordan
- 8:43Speaker 2: type shit at all times.
- 8:44Speaker 3: You know, really it is just cheat code, bro. It's
- 8:49Speaker 3: like I remember the first time we got in the
- 8:51Speaker 3: studio together and it was just we couldn't believe it
- 8:53Speaker 3: was so easy, you know what I'm saying. So we
- 8:56Speaker 3: don't question it. Were just getting about you know what
- 8:58Speaker 3: I'm saying. We feel like if we start trying to
- 8:59Speaker 3: figure it out too much and might fuck it up,
- 9:01Speaker 3: you know. So it's just I don't know. That's that's
- 9:04Speaker 3: the most easiest creative process for me, the six day process.

- 10:04Speaker 2: What's the difference between when you do these collab albums.
- 10:07Speaker 3: I feel like with the collab, I'm I'm a little
- 10:10Speaker 3: more considerate of you know what I'm saying, the other
- 10:12Speaker 3: party involved. You know what I'm saying. I don't want
- 10:14Speaker 3: to just wholeheartedly, you know, take full creative control and
- 10:18Speaker 3: say no, we should do that. You know, I'm more open.
- 10:20Speaker 3: I'm a team player, you know, so it's literally a collaboration.
- 10:24Speaker 3: So I don't just take on the I don't put
- 10:27Speaker 3: the Belichick hat on, you know what I'm saying. It's
- 10:29Speaker 3: where as I would on my own project, right, so
- 10:32Speaker 3: you know, it's kind of it's like a group project.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Was there a reason why it took a while to
- 10:39Speaker 2: get this album because.
- 10:42Speaker 1: It was like, sorry for the way to d're going
- 10:44Speaker 1: to be waiting a little bit longer.
- 10:45Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think it was just you know everything bro,
- 10:50Speaker 3: you know, getting the business right, making sure the music
- 10:54Speaker 3: is everything we wanted to be right, you know what
- 10:56Speaker 3: I'm saying, And uh yeah, it just felt like perfect timing, bro,
- 11:00Speaker 3: you know right now, you know, it wasn't a long wait.
- 11:03Speaker 3: It's been with like three years. It's a solo yeah.
- 11:06Speaker 2: But I mean obviously you've kept the fans fed because
- 11:08Speaker 2: you had a six tape three and the Blue Bucks record.
- 11:11Speaker 3: And yeah, so we was diving into all these other
- 11:14Speaker 3: projects and just you know, kind of having fun with
- 11:16Speaker 3: this shit for a while. And then when time felt right,
- 11:20Speaker 3: you know, me and the team got together and said
- 11:21Speaker 3: let's do this.
- 11:22Speaker 2: For sure what happened, because I do feel like, you know,
- 11:26Speaker 2: I remember specifically covid Era the outside album dropping. I
- 11:32Speaker 2: forget which restaurant you guys did the activation at with
- 11:35Speaker 2: Bells yeh yeah, but uh, you know, it felt like
- 11:41Speaker 2: like death Jam had finally figured out this West Coast
- 11:44Speaker 2: thing with you and you know obviously didn't end up
- 11:46Speaker 2: working out. But what do you think kind of like
- 11:48Speaker 2: what ended up happening with the Deaf Jam situation. Is
- 11:51Speaker 2: it just like you just moved on duels up or
- 11:53Speaker 2: what happened?
- 11:54Speaker 3: Yeah? With death Jam, it really was. I don't know,
- 11:57Speaker 3: it kind of just everything kind of just folded. You know.
- 12:02Speaker 3: It wasn't like a like, oh, yeah, we need to
- 12:05Speaker 3: get out of here, you know what I'm saying. There's
- 12:07Speaker 3: more so just you know, go floorish bro. You know,
- 12:11Speaker 3: they kind of just I don't want to speak on
- 12:13Speaker 3: too much of their business, you know, but yeah, like
- 12:16Speaker 3: a lot of us, it just feels like for whatever reason,
- 12:19Speaker 3: like major labels, they just don't understand how to work
- 12:22Speaker 3: West Coast artists.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I don't know what it is about it, Like it's
- 12:26Speaker 2: it's sometimes it's like deflating, cause you'd be like, yo,
- 12:29Speaker 2: Like Atlantic Records has had Ti dollar side for so long,
- 12:32Speaker 2: it's like, how the fuck do you not know what
- 12:33Speaker 2: to do with Tidla sign? But then he goes off
- 12:36Speaker 2: and does this Vultures album and fucking has the number
- 12:39Speaker 2: one song in the country and it ain't got shit
- 12:42Speaker 2: to do with his label. It's really got to do
- 12:44Speaker 2: with him and Yay, and you know, it's it's just,
- 12:47Speaker 2: you know, I think about that even like Roddy recently,
- 12:49Speaker 2: I'm like, fuck, man, like when.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Is the Navy coming out? Dog?
- 12:52Speaker 1: Like, let's not overthink this Shiita. But I just I
- 12:56Speaker 1: don't know what it is.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Man. It feels like I know a lot of these
- 12:58Speaker 2: labels are like New York based, but I don't know, man,
- 13:01Speaker 2: It's just like it just feels like there's like a
- 13:04Speaker 2: disconnect between like these major labels and like West Coast artists.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Sometimes in fact, you know, I feel like a lot
- 13:10Speaker 3: of everything plays a part. You know, the sonics play apart,
- 13:13Speaker 3: you know, the tempo's like some of the small as
- 13:17Speaker 3: a tempo play apart.
- 13:18Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
- 13:18Speaker 3: But I feel like when West Coast artists, we never
- 13:22Speaker 3: like really highlight and I don't even know if he
- 13:24Speaker 3: really highlights it hisself. Is yeat. Yeah, he's from He's
- 13:27Speaker 3: from Irvorland. Where is he from? He's from Irvine. I
- 13:31Speaker 3: thought he was from Portland.
- 13:35Speaker 1: Yo. Also, we gotta we gotta give it up to
- 13:37Speaker 1: Doja cat.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Yeah, Doga. I love Dogia for sure, and she could
- 13:41Speaker 3: rapprize them.
- 13:42Speaker 1: We just be forgetting that Doja cattle outbar everybody Like,
- 13:46Speaker 1: I'm like, beat your ass up. Let's not get it fucked.
- 13:50Speaker 3: Up by a Dolja fu.
- 13:52Speaker 1: She is incredible. Hey, you gotta stop the interview. You
- 13:54Speaker 1: want to give a shout out?
- 13:55Speaker 3: Man.
- 13:55Speaker 1: The only thing we smoke ladies and gentlemen is slapwod's.
- 13:58Speaker 1: That's right.
- 13:59Speaker 2: Make sure you follow them at slap woods. And you
- 14:02Speaker 2: know the reason why we smoked flap woods, it's literally
- 14:05Speaker 2: because they slap. You can't smoke a slap woos. What
- 14:08Speaker 2: the fuck are you doing? Get back to you. How
- 14:11Speaker 2: have you felt like the has there been a tide
- 14:14Speaker 2: turning since to pop Out? And I guess kind of
- 14:19Speaker 2: the light that Kendrick, I guess kind of brought to
- 14:23Speaker 2: a new generation of these LA artists. Have you felt
- 14:25Speaker 2: that tide turning in terms of just like the respect
- 14:28Speaker 2: and like maybe the opportunity that people are getting.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, I feel like as a coast in general,
- 14:33Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, we all look look really unified,
- 14:37Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. And more so, I love
- 14:38Speaker 3: how you put them artists on this album. You know,
- 14:40Speaker 3: it's just people kind of look at us different, you know, yeah,
- 14:44Speaker 3: like especially traveling like you hear you an LA rapper
- 14:47Speaker 3: or right, you know, it's kind of it's kind of
- 14:50Speaker 3: just on you, like you just carry that that jacket now,
- 14:53Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So do I feel it?
- 14:55Speaker 1: Do you feel like.

- 16:14Speaker 2: I had ever heard of you, well not necessarily hurt
- 16:17Speaker 2: of you, because I had heard of you, but the
- 16:18Speaker 2: first time I had ever really had any sort of
- 16:20Speaker 2: like idea of who you were like and how serious
- 16:23Speaker 2: of a person you are. There is an engineer of
- 16:26Speaker 2: mine who I don't know what ended up happening, but Nonetheless,
- 16:30Speaker 2: some guys you were with shaved his eyebrows off. According
- 16:33Speaker 2: to him, he could have been lying. And I'm like, oh,
- 16:37Speaker 2: oh this, you know guy serious. This was probably like
- 16:43Speaker 2: eight seven, six years ago. But fast forward, you're you're, you're,
- 16:47Speaker 2: You've matured so much. And I feel like in today's
- 16:53Speaker 2: media landscape, we have so much of what was sacred
- 16:58Speaker 2: in terms of some of the culture that is la
- 17:03Speaker 2: driven in terms of you know whatever, affiliations and politics
- 17:06Speaker 2: and all that, and I feel like it's so openly
- 17:10Speaker 2: discussed and outwardly on these podcasts on TikTok, and like,
- 17:13Speaker 2: like I just wonder, like, having the background you have,
- 17:17Speaker 2: how do you kind of feel about you know, I
- 17:20Speaker 2: guess the commercialization the podcast era of like of of
- 17:25Speaker 2: the gang shit.
- 17:27Speaker 3: I mean, no disrespect to the guards to do that,
- 17:31Speaker 3: which you ain't never seen me on.
- 17:32Speaker 2: There, you no, I know, That's what I'm saying. Like,
- 17:34Speaker 2: I just wonder because it's like it's just crazy. It's
- 17:36Speaker 2: like to me, it's like you see so much shit
- 17:38Speaker 2: getting like worked out on the internet, and it's it's
- 17:41Speaker 2: like somebody put to get a mic put in front
- 17:43Speaker 2: of them, and they just they just leave all of

- 21:13Speaker 2: get back to the interview. What is your writing process like,
- 21:16Speaker 2: because you do so much melodies? Do you do like
- 21:18Speaker 2: will you go in and lay the melody down and
- 21:20Speaker 2: then punch in the lyrics or like what's that? What's
- 21:22Speaker 2: that recording process like for you?
- 21:24Speaker 3: Nah? I kind of just getting that bitch out mumble
- 21:26Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying to some feel right and
- 21:28Speaker 3: the words just kind of go with it, you know,
- 21:30Speaker 3: just go go as I go along. Because in my
- 21:35Speaker 3: in my verses, I kind of switch melodies a lot,
- 21:36Speaker 3: like well, I'll switch like cadences right, like patterns and shit.
- 21:39Speaker 3: So literally it's me just on the spot, like just
- 21:43Speaker 3: figuring it out as I'm going.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Yeah, do you ever, like, will you still or I mean,
- 21:48Speaker 2: because I know a lot of artists don't write anymore,
- 21:49Speaker 2: do you ever if you get an idea, will you
- 21:51Speaker 2: do voice note it or you write it down? Like
- 21:54Speaker 2: if you're writing down fucking sunset and a fucking crazy
- 21:57Speaker 2: melody or a crazy thought in your head, you don't
- 22:00Speaker 2: write it down?
- 22:01Speaker 3: Nah, I see the thing, the thing like you're gonna
- 22:04Speaker 3: overthink regardless. I feel like. So it's like if I
- 22:06Speaker 3: do a voice note and I say it, by the
- 22:09Speaker 3: time I get to the booth and I'm trying to
- 22:10Speaker 3: lay it and trying to capture that vibe is not
- 22:12Speaker 3: gonna hit the same.
- 22:12Speaker 2: So it's like you gotta be in the moment, yeah, bro,
- 22:15Speaker 2: and catch the vibe on the spot.
- 22:16Speaker 3: Now that I know what that feels like, just like
- 22:18Speaker 3: unapologetically getting in there and doing you like I don't
- 22:21Speaker 3: want to do it the other way.
- 22:22Speaker 2: Do you ever like go in there because you know
- 22:24Speaker 2: you'll hear like a lot of mcs will have like
- 22:25Speaker 2: writer's block and then they're like, fuck I can't think
- 22:28Speaker 2: of nothing.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Do you ever have like a creative block where you're like,
- 22:31Speaker 1: just I just ain't feeling it today, Like this shit
- 22:33Speaker 1: ain't the way, like like like let's revisit this shit
- 22:36Speaker 1: next week type shit.
- 22:37Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean I don't say I put it off
- 22:39Speaker 3: like that, but definitely if I'm in there and I'm like,
- 22:42Speaker 3: I pop out, you know, try to catch a vot,
- 22:45Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Smoke some, drink some you
- 22:48Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, and just not force it because
- 22:50Speaker 3: once you get you put your's like shrooms, bro. Yeah,
- 22:53Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. Once you go down that
- 22:55Speaker 3: negative you know what I'm saying, You're gonna stay in
- 22:57Speaker 3: that bitch, Yo.
- 22:57Speaker 1: That's the best I get it now.
- 23:00Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's funny because everybody, if you eat too
- 23:03Speaker 2: much shrooms. And I had like four nights in a
- 23:05Speaker 2: row in Austin, Texas last week where I was the
- 23:07Speaker 2: last night, I.

- 23:11Speaker 2: And there was a moment in time where I was
- 23:13Speaker 2: at this bar and we're about to go to a
- 23:17Speaker 2: strip club, and I was at that crossroads where I
- 23:21Speaker 2: was like about to freak out. I was like, yo,
- 23:24Speaker 2: pull yourself together, dog, the night is young. We just
- 23:28Speaker 2: getting start, and then I just started thinking of like
- 23:31Speaker 2: good shit, and then like the rest of the night
- 23:33Speaker 2: was great. But I was like, there's that point in timer.
- 23:36Speaker 2: It's like, man, if you dive into that negative that
- 23:38Speaker 2: you're gonna be crying. You'll be calling your homies like
- 23:40Speaker 2: hey man, my bad bro.
- 23:42Speaker 3: As soon as you psych yourself out of it, man,
- 23:44Speaker 3: the rooms start lighting up and shit.
