- 4:31Speaker 1: viral buzz you know, you know how you go viral
- 4:34Speaker 1: and the buzz goes away like that. Stamp always can
- 4:37Speaker 1: be like I could stop making music next year and

- 4:43Speaker 1: keeps people like, oh I never heard the cale me
- 4:45Speaker 1: check on the Spotify and streams go up like the
- 4:47Speaker 1: pros and cons to the free to the freestyle. When
- 4:50Speaker 1: I wrote out my own list about it, it it was
- 4:51Speaker 1: so many pros, like it was so much positivity came after,
- 4:55Speaker 1: like I went gold because of that. I gained one
- 4:57Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two followers because of it. So it's
- 5:00Speaker 1: just it was a weird experience. I came to you
- 5:02Speaker 1: with fifty k followers. Yeah, so she went up after that.
- 5:07Speaker 1: That was dope. It was I mean, I got I
- 5:09Speaker 1: got bashed for what I got, But I've never been
- 5:11Speaker 1: the type to run away from pressure. It's probably because
- 5:13Speaker 1: I played sports most likely, but shit, it is what
- 5:16Speaker 1: it is, and I'm looking forward to I'm looking forward
- 5:20Speaker 1: to my future because I'm just evolving now as a man. Yeah,
- 5:23Speaker 1: it's crazy because you know I remember just like when
- 5:27Speaker 1: Deesus and Merrill talked about it on showtime and then
- 5:31Speaker 1: like you said, Rihanna Christy Tigan was like she she
- 5:34Speaker 1: was like she was the biggest. I don't know, but
- 5:38Speaker 1: she was like going going hard for that freestyle. She
- 5:41Speaker 1: was like, I can't stop watching it. Yeah, a lot
- 5:43Speaker 1: of artists had some good comments, Swaly, Mick Mill posted it,
- 5:47Speaker 1: Mike Mill posted it. But a lot of the newer
- 5:49Speaker 1: generational artists had a lot of good comments. Of course,
- 5:51Speaker 1: old heads say feedback always go be stern. Yeah, there's
- 5:54Speaker 1: either with that though. Yeah, there's some people who say
- 5:57Speaker 1: you're going Facebook, I still get tagged this day be
- 6:00Speaker 1: like the worst freestyle ever, right, and then some people
- 6:03Speaker 1: thought it was fucking crazy, the best right right right?
- 6:06Speaker 1: Hey take it you hate it, Aleven, I don't really
- 6:09Speaker 1: what were the cons of the freestyle? My crowd around me,
- 6:16Speaker 1: my back home people, you know, seeing people fold, seeing
- 6:20Speaker 1: people like you stand by my side when when you
- 6:22Speaker 1: see oh re re meet meal, you want to stand
- 6:24Speaker 1: up by my side. Right before that, he was quick
- 6:26Speaker 1: to leave. So it was it was a good way
- 6:28Speaker 1: to catch all the catch all the snakes in the land,
- 6:30Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But other than that, like
- 6:33Speaker 1: the pros outfieled it like it's just it was just
- 6:35Speaker 1: so much good stuff happened happened after that, Like I
- 6:39Speaker 1: was able to I was able to actually like create
- 6:42Speaker 1: a whole new sound off of that, like off of that,
- 6:45Speaker 1: like but I got a shout out to Empire and Ghazi,
- 6:48Speaker 1: like I'm able to be free with my artistic side,
- 6:50Speaker 1: dress how I want to dress, do what I want
- 6:52Speaker 1: to do, even if somebody says, all this is not right.
- 6:54Speaker 1: You make your own suggestions. But as an artist, I'm free.
- 6:57Speaker 1: I'm not control, so I can do what I want.
- 6:59Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So shout out to them
- 7:00Speaker 1: for even allowing me to go to go up there.
- 7:03Speaker 1: And you released the ship because I know motherfuckers like, oh,
- 7:05Speaker 1: we ain't gonna release it, but hey, it made my career,
- 7:08Speaker 1: you know, somebody my legacy. No, no no, yeah, I think
- 7:11Speaker 1: that there was a very we were all at the
- 7:14Speaker 1: end of the freestyle very uh. We we didn't know
- 7:18Speaker 1: what the fun We were very confused your faces to
- 7:21Speaker 1: but you and you and heare some good friends now yeah, yeah,
- 7:24Speaker 1: talk to me all the time. Yeah. I think it.
- 7:26Speaker 1: It was positive though. Man. I think people. I think
- 7:28Speaker 1: at the end of the day, like you said, I
- 7:30Speaker 1: kind of laid the groundwork for you kind of From there,
- 7:33Speaker 1: you could do anything you look like when people think
- 7:35Speaker 1: about it. From there, like you can drop songs like
- 7:37Speaker 1: how they Blue Dragon go on hundred two thousand completely off,
- 7:42Speaker 1: go off, the off, the off, the reservoir, off the
- 7:44Speaker 1: you know, because I'm not your regular rappers, So right,
- 7:47Speaker 1: I created my own box and now I'm living in it.
- 7:50Speaker 1: On the new album, you got jack Boy and and
- 7:52Speaker 1: why Cleft so talk to me because obviously both Haitians. Yeah,
- 7:56Speaker 1: y Cleft is like the god though. You know what
- 7:59Speaker 1: I'm saying, Shout out to white Cliff. You got him
- 8:01Speaker 1: talking that ship on the album. How did you guys? Like,
- 8:03Speaker 1: how did that play happen? Because that's about me before
- 8:06Speaker 1: the freestyle. Okay, so as soon as my Instagram name
- 8:09Speaker 1: popped up, Haiti baby, he already he tapped in, locked
- 8:11Speaker 1: in like giving me free game, a lot of advice,
- 8:15Speaker 1: giving me books to read, oh wow, not giving me books,
- 8:18Speaker 1: like telling me some books I should look up, like
- 8:20Speaker 1: just an uncle in the industry. You know what I'm saying. Now,
- 8:25Speaker 1: how me and jack Boy man? Of course he signed
- 8:26Speaker 1: the Empire. Of course, you know family business probably linked
- 8:30Speaker 1: up guys like everything else but what artists realized. You know,
- 8:34Speaker 1: a lot of people in the in the industry. I
- 8:36Speaker 1: always say, oh, these rap niggas fake, it's faking the game.
- 8:39Speaker 1: But it's up to who you mess well with. So
- 8:41Speaker 1: I messed well with Jack. You know. That's that's my
- 8:43Speaker 1: that's me personally. Me and him meshed well. So that's
- 8:46Speaker 1: why it sinks so good. On track, did you make
- 8:48Speaker 1: a conscious effort to only have Haitian's featured on the album?
- 8:52Speaker 1: Or was that by coincidence? By coincidence? Okay see her line?
- 8:57Speaker 1: Oh fuck, but yeah, so it was coincidence. I mean,
- 9:02Speaker 1: ship talk about the title trap art because I feel
- 9:05Speaker 1: like you're, like you said, you're like an artist artist,
- 9:09Speaker 1: you could really do anything. And I feel like that's
- 9:11Speaker 1: kind of a dope title for if you were to
- 9:14Speaker 1: just kind of boxing your genre, give it a name. Yeah,
- 9:19Speaker 1: but trap in my generation is always thought. When you
- 9:23Speaker 1: think of trap, you think of like Damn South. Of course,
- 9:25Speaker 1: you think it like g z T exactly. My version
- 9:29Speaker 1: of trap is like the West Coast Trap, the sugar Free,
- 9:32Speaker 1: the two Shirts of the world. And you know what
- 9:34Speaker 1: I'm saying stuff like that, and artistic side is just
- 9:37Speaker 1: me being me. That's what you get just me being me.
- 9:40Speaker 1: I may one track, I may do something, you know
- 9:43Speaker 1: what I'm saying, or go or stay standard. You never
- 9:45Speaker 1: know what you give with me. Do you think that
- 9:49Speaker 1: I was gonna say being out of Stockton and stocked
- 9:53Speaker 1: in for people who don't know, is it's in northern California.
- 9:58Speaker 1: There's some other artists out of stocked in there doing
- 10:00Speaker 1: that thing. And now there's more too. It's more too.
- 10:04Speaker 1: But do you do you think that it's like harder
- 10:07Speaker 1: coming out of a city like Stockton to break in
- 10:09Speaker 1: the industry because it's it's not reckoned like you know,
- 10:12Speaker 1: when people think of California outside of California, they think
- 10:14Speaker 1: of La or San Francisco, and that's it me and
- 10:17Speaker 1: now making it easy for cats. We open the door.
- 10:20Speaker 1: It's up to them to kick it down. You know
- 10:21Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Kick down all the hinges. You know
- 10:23Speaker 1: what I'm saying, We open the door. So it's nothing's
- 10:26Speaker 1: easy in life, but that's a part of success. You
- 10:28Speaker 1: have to be uncomfortable. You have to be comfortable being
- 10:31Speaker 1: uncomfortable basically, you know what I'm saying. So I give
- 10:34Speaker 1: a lot of game on my page. I show y'all.
- 10:35Speaker 1: I show y'all me working out all the time. I
- 10:37Speaker 1: show y'all me in the studio. So it's like, yeah,
- 10:41Speaker 1: people gotta just pay attend to the work ethic because
- 10:43Speaker 1: I'm with Empire, So I'm I'm going through artists development
- 10:47Speaker 1: in my internal and external on my own. No one's
- 10:50Speaker 1: telling me to do this. I'm doing on my own.
- 10:51Speaker 1: You gotta want this, you know. You can't just wake
- 10:53Speaker 1: up and I'm gonna be a rapper. Where do you
- 10:55Speaker 1: come from? What's your lifestyle do you come You know
- 10:57Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You gotta make people care, right, it
- 11:00Speaker 1: got to be believable. One thing about pot he made
- 11:02Speaker 1: you believe, right, It gave you hope. One thing about
- 11:05Speaker 1: jay Z, he rapped with a plan. He always rapped
- 11:07Speaker 1: with a plan. So you just got to be prepared
- 11:09Speaker 1: when you're coming into this game. So you say, have
- 11:12Speaker 1: in tension with everything you do, have intentionally everything you do.
- 11:14Speaker 1: But I would like to say one thing, you don't
- 11:17Speaker 1: just have to be an artist. There's so many positions
- 11:19Speaker 1: in this industry. Of course, people think that you if
- 11:22Speaker 1: you're not like you got to be a rapper. Like,
- 11:24Speaker 1: there's so much other shit you could do the most dangerous,
- 11:27Speaker 1: dangerous position to being right nowadays. Yeah for sure. Yeah, man,
- 11:31Speaker 1: it's been it's been a crazy look the last few years.
- 11:33Speaker 1: There are pet all the ones who passed away to Yeah,
- 11:35Speaker 1: we've lost a lot of people, man, So your influence
- 11:40Speaker 1: has got to be crazy because like you are you
- 11:42Speaker 1: mentioned Andre earlier. Yeah, you know, when you listen to
- 11:44Speaker 1: your music, you could hear some sugar free shit. The
- 11:47Speaker 1: freestyle were about to drop. I heard some reminiscent some
- 11:49Speaker 1: of that. You know what I'm saying. You definitely gonna
- 11:51Speaker 1: hear the West Coast talk about your influences. Man, My
- 11:55Speaker 1: influence has always changed, if that made any sense. Like,
- 11:58Speaker 1: I've never listened to jays he until twenty twenty. You
- 12:01Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Really, I never we know, I
- 12:04Speaker 1: know his records, but you never like tapped in. Actually, really,
- 12:08Speaker 1: you know you work. I know word for word a
- 12:09Speaker 1: couple of songs, but I don't know. I hear what
- 12:11Speaker 1: you're telling the jay z that you know right right
- 12:13Speaker 1: right right, know what I'm saying. I know Nipsey, of course,
- 12:14Speaker 1: it's just played to me all the time. I'm from
- 12:16Speaker 1: the West Coast. I know forty it's played to me
- 12:18Speaker 1: on the time. It's familiar music. But I started venturing
- 12:21Speaker 1: on so this this year I went back into some
- 12:24Speaker 1: odies in my catalog that I used to listen to
- 12:26Speaker 1: that I forgot about, like The Usher's Confession album, fifty
- 12:29Speaker 1: Cent and Get Rich of Trying, even the Pleasure ple album,
- 12:34Speaker 1: you know, a Pleasure p Man, Pleasure Pleasure, T Fly
- 12:37Speaker 1: Pretty Ricky had a run, man, you know what I'm saying.
- 12:39Speaker 1: T Fly Fly Fly another guy who's out of out
- 12:43Speaker 1: of LA who I really hoped it would have been bigger,
- 12:46Speaker 1: but he definitely kicked down some like Sonic Sonic doors
- 12:49Speaker 1: for a lot of people, Like he was doing a
- 12:50Speaker 1: lot of shit. I know, you know when you see
- 12:53Speaker 1: Yeah the show Now he's an alien for sure. For sure.
- 12:57Speaker 1: You talked about Rihanna tapped and then did you have
- 13:00Speaker 1: any sort of correspondence with anybody, like did you chop
- 13:03Speaker 1: it up with Chrissy Teagan or like no, I didn't
- 13:06Speaker 1: get no phone calls with the only person that you
- 13:08Speaker 1: talk to was rereading her people's they were they're super cool,
- 13:12Speaker 1: They're super cool. You know what I'm saying. Me hit
- 13:15Speaker 1: me the DM on that hype, like me hit me like, like,
- 13:18Speaker 1: that's why I never asked him, you know what's up
- 13:19Speaker 1: with verse or bagging and stuff. He hit me from
- 13:21Speaker 1: the hype I'm watching. Just know that, So that was
- 13:23Speaker 1: all I needed. I was like, that's cool, you've been
- 13:25Speaker 1: and co Son is good enough. I take that as
- 13:27Speaker 1: a coast on. You ain't got to go on the
- 13:28Speaker 1: internet and say my name on the time. But if
- 13:30Speaker 1: he tells you he's watching you, yeah, you just watching,
- 13:32Speaker 1: that's all you know. Attention is a lot tension get
- 13:34Speaker 1: equal to you know what I'm saying. You can be
- 13:36Speaker 1: wearing my merch one day. Hey, and yo, me and
- 13:40Speaker 1: me and had need are cut from your merch by
- 13:41Speaker 1: the way, he shout out burner too. Oh yeah, Berner,
- 13:45Speaker 1: that's that's family right there. Shout out stoky. Are you?
- 13:48Speaker 1: Are you a big smoker? I don't smoke when I'm
- 13:51Speaker 1: everything about weed. I love it for it. But I'm
- 13:53Speaker 1: just going through a personal break because I've been on
- 13:54Speaker 1: my workout. So you've been you've been chilling out on
- 13:56Speaker 1: that has been chilling out, no drinking, no smoking on
- 13:58Speaker 1: a year not doing nothing. You you've been working out,
- 14:01Speaker 1: getting in shape and shit talk about your like, are
- 14:03Speaker 1: you on any sort of diet or anything, or just
- 14:05Speaker 1: just being healthier. My diet five meals a day, not
- 14:09Speaker 1: super big place right breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but snacks
- 14:12Speaker 1: in between, you know what I'm saying. So I had
- 14:14Speaker 1: to up it because I was working out last year,
- 14:17Speaker 1: like January until to May, I wasn't seeing no improvement.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Maybe because I was looking in the mirror. Maybe it
- 14:23Speaker 1: was illusion. I wasn't see no improvement once I start
- 14:25Speaker 1: eating more freaking my water. You know what I'm saying. Well,
- 14:29Speaker 1: I think people there's like a misconception that if you
- 14:31Speaker 1: eat less like you should lose, And obviously, if you're
- 14:35Speaker 1: eating a shit ton of food, you'll lose so much
- 14:36Speaker 1: that you'll hit a you'll hit some sort of WAF.
- 14:38Speaker 1: I think if you, like you said, those little mini
- 14:40Speaker 1: meals kind of help your metallism keep going right, even
- 14:44Speaker 1: if you feel like you're fat. This is the thing
- 14:45Speaker 1: people feel like we need to stop eating right. That's
- 14:48Speaker 1: not gonna work because all your body is doing is
- 14:50Speaker 1: eating the muscle. That's what creates more fat. You know
- 14:53Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You eat and then you work out
- 14:55Speaker 1: and you're giving your body food and you're now you're
- 14:58Speaker 1: working out now, You're giving your time to expand. So
- 15:01Speaker 1: no particular diet, just eating better. I'm eating better. I'm
- 15:05Speaker 1: just eating You ain't on the Keto wave or no,
- 15:07Speaker 1: no ship like that. I don't even know what that is. Keto,
- 15:11Speaker 1: just no uh carbs, no sugar off high fat diet.
- 15:14Speaker 1: I mean sugar is. I don't really do too much candy,
- 15:17Speaker 1: but I eat everything. When I'm gonna start worrying about
- 15:19Speaker 1: stuff like that when I get older. I'm only twenty three,
- 15:21Speaker 1: so damn you know twenty three years old? Man? Yeah,
- 15:25Speaker 1: anybody else you want to shed the spotlight on that's
