- 4:09Speaker 6: like I ain't gonna wait for somebody give me a trophy,
- 4:11Speaker 6: So I'm gonna go buy my own trophy retail therapy.

- 4:18Speaker 6: Yeah, it's temporary, but it's a trophy to me, you
- 4:21Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So it's something like I worked
- 4:23Speaker 6: hard my whole life for you know what I'm saying.
- 4:26Speaker 6: It's equal to a Grammy. I look at this like
- 4:28Speaker 6: a Grammy. You know what I'm saying.
- 4:29Speaker 2: For sure me put on my domontant. Let me seef.
- 4:32Speaker 8: You should be happy about stopp Man. Go ahead, you
- 4:41Speaker 8: might be out here happy for no reason.
- 4:43Speaker 3: All the way, I was gonna ask, you know, how
- 4:49Speaker 3: long did it take you to do this album? Because
- 4:51Speaker 3: listening to the album, because you feel the pain from
- 4:53Speaker 3: the first song, Yeah, from the first song, how long
- 4:56Speaker 3: did it take you to do this album? How difficult
- 4:58Speaker 3: was it to do this album? And there's so many
- 5:00Speaker 3: elements in this album that that screamed gospel.
- 5:03Speaker 6: Yeah, it took me like eighteen months through this album.
- 5:08Speaker 6: Like the last album, I was very still, like I
- 5:10Speaker 6: ain't even gonna tour yet. I just locked in for
- 5:13Speaker 6: like a month straight and just boomed two months, fourteen songs.
- 5:16Speaker 6: But this album, I was on tour, two tours, losing
- 5:20Speaker 6: my dad, So it was like it all came together
- 5:22Speaker 6: like in eighteen months. That's why it's even twenty one
- 5:25Speaker 6: songs on this album. It was just a process of
- 5:27Speaker 6: me recording through the whole year making good music. I
- 5:30Speaker 6: couldn't even take nothing out, you know what I'm saying.
- 5:32Speaker 6: And it's also the reason why I said double disc
- 5:34Speaker 6: you feel me. I got a lot of fans that
- 5:36Speaker 6: love the R and B side of me, and the
- 5:38Speaker 6: other fans that love the life, you know what I'm saying,
- 5:40Speaker 6: the pain side of me. So I separated in that
- 5:43Speaker 6: way just to feed my fans, you know what I'm saying.
- 5:45Speaker 6: It's been a long time.
- 5:46Speaker 4: Besides, you grew up in church.
- 5:48Speaker 1: That's oh yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 5:50Speaker 6: My dad my dad's pastor you know what I'm saying,
- 5:52Speaker 6: that's why I learned everything. Like he forced music on me,
- 5:55Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. It wasn't no musicians in
- 5:57Speaker 6: the church show. He told me and my brothers, y'all
- 6:00Speaker 6: got to learn something. You know what I'm saying, y'all
- 6:01Speaker 6: gonna play something. And it kind of like came natural,
- 6:04Speaker 6: Like I was playing instruments and singing in the choir.
- 6:06Speaker 5: Since I was like eleven, I wonder what the Meek
- 6:09Speaker 5: verse was It the writer's block or the difficulty of
- 6:12Speaker 5: making the verse, or the fact that y'all was, you know,
- 6:15Speaker 5: sitting up talking about grief that took eleven hours, Like
- 6:19Speaker 5: what do you think it was?
- 6:20Speaker 6: I think it's everything, you know what I'm saying. Like
- 6:23Speaker 6: when you make a song for somebody you lost, it's
- 6:26Speaker 6: like you gotta get it done. You gotta do the
- 6:28Speaker 6: best you can for that person. In that session too,
- 6:31Speaker 6: if you look at my Instagram, I was probably crying
- 6:33Speaker 6: tears the whole session, you know what I'm saying. Like
- 6:36Speaker 6: because while he was coren we couldn't hear. But like
- 6:39Speaker 6: when he finished his verse, even though he lost his
- 6:42Speaker 6: dad when he was a kid, a lot of the
- 6:44Speaker 6: stuff he was saying, like was touching my heart in
- 6:47Speaker 6: a different way, Like I got everything, but I just
- 6:50Speaker 6: really want to hold hands with my old man on
- 6:52Speaker 6: wedding day while I slow dance you feel me and
- 6:54Speaker 6: just I lost my dad then my brother got married.
- 6:58Speaker 6: My pot wasn't at that, So everything he was saying
- 7:00Speaker 6: was just hitting my heart. So that that session was
- 7:02Speaker 6: a therapy session.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Bro. We was crying real tears in there.
- 7:05Speaker 5: What other healthy conversations have led to art?
- 7:11Speaker 1: Uh, what do you mean by that?
- 7:12Speaker 2: Like other conversations that you've had with people that lead
- 7:14Speaker 2: the music.
- 7:17Speaker 1: I get.
- 7:17Speaker 6: I get music like that. It's like a lot from
- 7:19Speaker 6: a like experience, especially combos. Even like I got a
- 7:22Speaker 6: song called some Days I'm Good some Days I'm Not
- 7:24Speaker 6: on the album Like that was a conversation I have
- 7:27Speaker 6: with my manager just finding an album titled and then
- 7:30Speaker 6: we found it and right after we found it, I
- 7:32Speaker 6: just went to my basement, produced it and just freestyle
- 7:36Speaker 6: that song.
- 7:37Speaker 1: So a lot of my music come from experience for sure.
- 7:39Speaker 4: Hell yeah, because empty Stomach is still my favorite.
- 7:42Speaker 6: Oh yeah, she had they That's why I love just
- 7:44Speaker 6: she been showing me love since the beginning for real, though.
- 7:47Speaker 3: I was gonna ask what else you've been dealing with
- 7:49Speaker 3: on on on this album in the last I guess
- 7:51Speaker 3: eighteen months cause besides your father past and I mean
- 7:54Speaker 3: listening to some of these songs, it seems like your
- 7:57Speaker 3: friends are snake you. Yeah, it seems like like you know,
- 8:00Speaker 3: your friends only out for one thing.
- 8:02Speaker 1: A girl did you dirty?
- 8:03Speaker 3: Like there's so much pain, Bro, I wanted to get
- 8:05Speaker 3: after he listened job, I said, I gotta get this
- 8:07Speaker 3: brother a hug, like you've been dealing with what else you.
- 8:09Speaker 2: Want to hug? Because you want to.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Period, but like something comes down wait for me, like
- 8:21Speaker 3: this records never leave like this records where you're hurting.
- 8:24Speaker 2: So talk about that a little bit.
- 8:27Speaker 6: I say, like being the first person to make it out,
- 8:32Speaker 6: it's like a blessing and a curse. And it's like
- 8:36Speaker 6: when you make it out, all odds is on you.
- 8:40Speaker 6: And I'll say this, like it'll be like the closest
- 8:43Speaker 6: people around you like is look at you to everything.
- 8:46Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, and they even blame you
- 8:48Speaker 6: for everything. You feel me Like you just wake up
- 8:51Speaker 6: and you get five calls like, Bro, what you think
- 8:53Speaker 6: about this musics like you feel me. I'm like, talk
- 8:57Speaker 6: to me. Niggas don't got no clue what they want
- 9:00Speaker 6: to do. I'm like, all right, but old Friday weirdo here.
- 9:03Speaker 1: You don't want invested in my business, then that's another Joe.
- 9:07Speaker 1: You feel me.
- 9:08Speaker 6: And it's like I'll say this, like bringing people to
- 9:11Speaker 6: the water, it's a blessing and a curse because they
- 9:15Speaker 6: don't they take it for granted. I'll say that, and
- 9:17Speaker 6: then they'll blame it on you. You feel me in
- 9:20Speaker 6: a way like say you bring people backstage, right, I
- 9:24Speaker 6: put people in this room, they'll look at you to
- 9:26Speaker 6: do everything else.
- 9:27Speaker 2: No, look at the room with a look at no food.
- 9:30Speaker 6: Yeah, they in the room with you and they be like, yo, tech,
- 9:33Speaker 6: Charlie main Ro. Just put you in the room. You
- 9:35Speaker 6: just met eighty artists, but you worried about girls. You
- 9:39Speaker 6: ain't leaving new numbers, and then you go to sleep
- 9:42Speaker 6: like Friday ain't putting me in a position. The only
- 9:46Speaker 6: thing you could ask for is the door to be open.
- 9:48Speaker 1: You feel me.
- 9:49Speaker 6: So that's one of the things big things going through,
- 9:52Speaker 6: like making it out for sure.
- 9:53Speaker 5: I'll tell you something that I would somebody would have
- 9:55Speaker 5: told me earlier focus on yourself can nah for sure,
- 9:57Speaker 5: because you can travel farther alone, and then when you
- 10:00Speaker 5: finally get in the position you want to be, then
- 10:02Speaker 5: you can help who is worthy of facts. You know
- 10:06Speaker 5: another thing too, man, you say that the pain won't
- 10:08Speaker 5: go away, or you say that on some days I'm good,
- 10:10Speaker 5: some days I'm not. It's like it's not you know,
- 10:12Speaker 5: it's not really supposed to. Yeah, you're supposed to just
- 10:15Speaker 5: deal with it.
- 10:15Speaker 1: You're supposed to deal with it and understand it more
- 10:18Speaker 1: and find it good in it.
- 10:19Speaker 5: Yeah, you said, I know, you know, you might want
- 10:21Speaker 5: to escape from it and you know, have a little
- 10:22Speaker 5: drink or buy some joy. But it's just it's a
- 10:25Speaker 5: natural thing, like you should be grieving you lost your pops.
- 10:28Speaker 6: Sure, yeah, I'm learning that. I'm learning that as the
- 10:31Speaker 6: days go by, Like I just understand it more. You

- 15:17Speaker 1: Yeah, I ain't say that. What you're walking about? What
- 15:20Speaker 1: song you're talking about? To come home? Oh yeah for
- 15:23Speaker 1: sure in a way, in a way, yeah for sure.
- 15:25Speaker 2: But to have that level of self awareness.
- 15:27Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a that's a great record, right and wise.
- 15:29Speaker 6: You know it's special like this is this explaining like
- 15:33Speaker 6: is it too late for me to come home? Like
- 15:35Speaker 6: me being outside late and doing all my dirt and
- 15:38Speaker 6: just coming home. You know, when you come home, you
- 15:40Speaker 6: don't feel like you don't want to get nobody. Huh,
- 15:42Speaker 6: you got a wash up first, you.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying. It's like going to them songs.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.
- 15:47Speaker 5: You said you steady trying to come up your filthy side. Yeah,
- 15:50Speaker 5: you come home with a lot of baggage. I've been
- 15:51Speaker 5: hard to manage.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.
- 15:53Speaker 6: That's song crazy And it's not having about love. It's
- 15:55Speaker 6: about whoever you're coming home to, you know what I'm saying,
- 15:58Speaker 6: Even if it's your kid, when you come home to
- 16:01Speaker 6: see your mom, you gotta clean up. Like me, I'm
- 16:03Speaker 6: coming to see my mom. I gotta take a shore
- 16:05Speaker 6: if I'm doing something crazy.
- 16:06Speaker 5: You know, for sure, do you feel like you have
- 16:09Speaker 5: to I guess hide things, hide the way you're feeling
- 16:11Speaker 5: sometimes because you said that earlier, like you don't want
- 16:13Speaker 5: to express yourself to people. So if you do get
- 16:15Speaker 5: close to a woman, but you are having one of
- 16:17Speaker 5: them days when you grieving or something shit.
- 16:19Speaker 6: And you be able to share that with it, Uh
- 16:21Speaker 6: yeah sometimes. But like I'll say, like sometimes women like
- 16:24Speaker 6: they take that for weakness when you when you like
- 16:27Speaker 6: really open up to them, like so that's how my
- 16:30Speaker 6: dad was to you. Almost gotta be like really strong,
- 16:34Speaker 6: you feel me native and just saying women just throw
- 16:37Speaker 6: it in your face, your weakness.
- 16:38Speaker 1: But it's just like they don't want you, you know
- 16:41Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's like they look down on you.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Most women.
- 16:44Speaker 6: It's like they look down on you when you're weak
- 16:46Speaker 6: and from what I've seen, you know what I'm saying,
- 16:49Speaker 6: for sure.
- 16:50Speaker 1: That hold you down.
- 16:55Speaker 6: It's just like they just expect the men all the time,
- 16:59Speaker 6: you know what I'm I'm saying, They just expect that
- 17:01Speaker 6: protector to provider, like they don't even the emotions.
- 17:06Speaker 1: It's not worried about that most of the time. For sure.
- 17:08Speaker 2: It was crazy. That's what men we need. Yeah, we
- 17:11Speaker 2: be needing that. We always want to be the protectors
- 17:13Speaker 2: and provided.

- 17:24Speaker 6: it's like, damn, I can't express myself without you throwing
- 17:27Speaker 6: it back at me, Like it's like, let me feel
- 17:29Speaker 6: how I feel. Like I was telling my brother that
- 17:31Speaker 6: I don't think men can feel how they feel in
- 17:33Speaker 6: front of woman.
- 17:34Speaker 2: You're trying the right one.
- 17:34Speaker 1: You can, Yeah, I know, throw it back in your face.
- 17:37Speaker 3: That's not the right one because you can't be open
- 17:38Speaker 3: at anytime that you feel the way. You can never
- 17:41Speaker 3: express yourself fully.

- 21:06Speaker 6: I signed my first artist deal right after God?
- 21:08Speaker 1: Did you know what I'm saying?
- 21:10Speaker 6: And I was still in the hood when it came out,
- 21:14Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, Like came out I heard.

- 21:19Speaker 1: was just waiting.
- 21:21Speaker 6: Midnight came, I heard my voice. I seen the future.
- 21:24Speaker 6: I'm like everything about the change. You know what I'm saying.
- 21:27Speaker 6: I like, I'm i gotta get out this hood though,
- 21:29Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, Like then I bought a crib.
- 21:32Speaker 1: You feel me? It changed everything?
- 21:34Speaker 5: Was that the third year because I saw you talking
- 21:36Speaker 5: about how your third year is when you really started
- 21:38Speaker 5: making money and this business was that.
- 21:41Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll tell any artists like at first, the first
- 21:44Speaker 6: year is really like sacrifices if you're doing it the
- 21:46Speaker 6: right way, like I feel like a lot of artists
- 21:49Speaker 6: they do it like I wouldn't say the wrong way.
- 21:52Speaker 6: But it's just like a money grad just like for
- 21:54Speaker 6: shows of course, like, nah, some money grad, I'm coming
- 21:58Speaker 6: with me and my DJ and just rocking it up
- 22:00Speaker 6: out just to get the whole. But me, I like
- 22:02Speaker 6: to present a certain show, like I gotta make sure
- 22:04Speaker 6: to sound right. I gotta make sure I got a
- 22:06Speaker 6: band like you feel me. So for me, the first
- 22:09Speaker 6: year was more sacrifice, yeah, breaking even like my tour,
- 22:13Speaker 6: like I ain't even you feel me. It was even
- 22:15Speaker 6: I might have to come out of pocket sometimes, you
- 22:17Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. But this like this the year,
- 22:20Speaker 6: like I feel like I start making more money for sure.
- 22:23Speaker 2: What do you call real money?
- 22:24Speaker 5: Like what you don't got to give a number, but yeah,
- 22:26Speaker 5: I want a number, Like what what did you maybe financially?
- 22:29Speaker 2: What did you be? What were you able to do
- 22:31Speaker 2: that made you say, Okay, now I'm making real money.
- 22:33Speaker 6: You don't what I'm able to do now, like I'm
- 22:36Speaker 6: able to help the people I love. That's that's like
- 22:39Speaker 6: at first, you know, when you shine, they don't really
- 22:41Speaker 6: understand a million dollars turn into three four hundred thousand
- 22:44Speaker 6: feeling pay you.
- 22:46Speaker 1: Pay your team and all that.
- 22:47Speaker 6: But but everybody looking at you like you got an
- 22:50Speaker 6: emmor two, you know what I'm saying, And they got
- 22:52Speaker 6: their hand out, like yo, you're supposed to feel me.
- 22:55Speaker 6: A nigga might ask you for a hundred thousand like
- 22:58Speaker 6: you feeling that's how you think you saw I feel
- 23:00Speaker 6: And we grew.
- 23:00Speaker 4: Up together bowls enough to ask somebody.
- 23:05Speaker 1: That's crazy. But it's just a mindset thing.
- 23:07Speaker 6: So now, like two three years in, I'm just I'm
- 23:11Speaker 6: more comfortable with you feel me helping my family, You
- 23:13Speaker 6: feel me giving them money?
- 23:15Speaker 1: That's that's what I feel like, I'm good.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Now are you honest with them? What do you tell them? Like, look,
- 23:20Speaker 2: it ain't that yet.
- 23:21Speaker 6: Yeah, I had I had a few shit down last year,
- 23:24Speaker 6: like a year and a half, Like, really, explain like
- 23:26Speaker 6: you feel me?
- 23:27Speaker 1: It's not that. Don't you feel me?
- 23:29Speaker 6: Because most artists, they would even pretend in front of
- 23:33Speaker 6: their family is that you feel me, and they be.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Like you bragg into us as that and we starving.
- 23:39Speaker 1: So I'll make them look at you and even build

- 23:44Speaker 6: explain with this what it is you feel me, and

- 25:15Speaker 1: Yeah? How fast did you move out of Philly? Real fast?
- 25:18Speaker 6: Because it was getting like it was getting a little bad,
- 25:20Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Crib just Pete walked down
- 25:23Speaker 6: the street like old Friday, you feel me. The first week,
- 25:26Speaker 6: it was like nobody even knew my face. It was
- 25:29Speaker 6: just saying my name so I can go to the club.
- 25:31Speaker 1: I'm here.
- 25:32Speaker 6: It bore Friday snapped, I don't know it's me. But
- 25:34Speaker 6: it was like like three three weeks later, a month,
- 25:37Speaker 6: I'm like, I gotta get out of here. You know
- 25:38Speaker 6: what I'm saying, I don't even feel safe. You know
- 25:40Speaker 6: what I'm saying, I don't even feel safe. So that
- 25:42Speaker 6: was the first thing I did. I bought a crib
- 25:44Speaker 6: and I moved. I moved away.
- 25:47Speaker 4: You move with your aunts and your uncle and.
- 25:51Speaker 1: No, no, I went to I moved with my mom.
- 25:53Speaker 2: And all that for sure was it's something that happened
- 25:56Speaker 2: or you just felt it.
- 25:57Speaker 6: No, I just felt it Philly like crazy like that.
- 26:00Speaker 6: It's like a dangerous city. So it's like I already
- 26:03Speaker 6: know what to come with, you know what I'm saying. Especially,
- 26:05Speaker 6: it's like it's not a lot of it's not a
- 26:07Speaker 6: lot of resources out there. So when you when you're
- 26:10Speaker 6: the one getting a little bit of money, not even
- 26:13Speaker 6: like God did. I'm talking about even if you just
- 26:16Speaker 6: up and coming. It's a lot of upcoming rappers with
- 26:19Speaker 6: thirty thousand followers, heigs getting shot just because niggas hating
- 26:22Speaker 6: on your niggas hating all your success. So I had
- 26:25Speaker 6: God did with jay Z, so niggas look at I
- 26:27Speaker 6: knew I had to do it for sure.
- 26:29Speaker 5: That don't make no sense to me, man, Like why
- 26:31Speaker 5: would you, you know, try to hurt somebody who potentially
- 26:34Speaker 5: could help your whole situation, whole community.
- 26:37Speaker 2: That makes no sense.
- 26:39Speaker 1: But they don't really look at it like that. Yeah,
- 26:41Speaker 1: they more look at it like wow, wow him and
- 26:43Speaker 1: not me. And they look at it like.
- 26:47Speaker 6: Shouldn't be here and it should be me. You know
- 26:49Speaker 6: what I'm saying. It's more of a threat, bro, Like
- 26:53Speaker 6: it's dangerous for Philly for sure.
- 26:54Speaker 4: Who's your support system?
- 26:56Speaker 1: Uh?
- 26:57Speaker 6: I keep my brothers close, especially my mom close to.
- 27:00Speaker 6: Like every time I get a chance, I go see
- 27:03Speaker 6: my mom for sure, shout the one, pray over me
- 27:05Speaker 6: and all that before I leave the cribs. That's my
- 27:08Speaker 6: support system for sure, my mom and my brothers.
- 27:11Speaker 5: Yeah. You know, there's this thing called the five stages
- 27:14Speaker 5: of grief, right, and it's a series of emotions people
- 27:16Speaker 5: experience after a loss. And it's now anger, bargaining, depression,
- 27:22Speaker 5: and accept it. Where do you think you at?
- 27:25Speaker 6: I mean, I'm almost accepted, y'all say that. I mean,
- 27:32Speaker 6: I'm almost there. You feel me.
- 27:34Speaker 1: I'm understanding it more and more as time goes by, because.
- 27:40Speaker 6: It's a lot of wires and house you know what
- 27:42Speaker 6: I'm saying, Like the way the way my father died,
- 27:44Speaker 6: the way somebody died, it could be like DN, like
- 27:47Speaker 6: why I had to go like this? You know what
- 27:49Speaker 6: I'm saying. So it's more like why. And I'm kind
- 27:52Speaker 6: of accepting it right now for sure.
- 27:54Speaker 2: Yeah, how would you like his legacy to be remembered?
- 28:00Speaker 6: Just about what I'm doing now, like putting my rail
- 28:02Speaker 6: in my music, inspiring people, giving people good words of
- 28:05Speaker 6: encouragement and all that.
- 28:06Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 28:07Speaker 6: That's why I keep it in the music how I
- 28:09Speaker 6: can because I know I'm doing right. You know what
- 28:11Speaker 6: I'm saying. I could do a whole R and B
- 28:13Speaker 6: album if I want to, and some people want that,
- 28:15Speaker 6: but I know it's people that need the real you
- 28:19Speaker 6: feel me, the real music that get them through life.
- 28:21Speaker 6: Like my DMS is crazy, Like a lot of people
- 28:24Speaker 6: into jails listening to me. A lot of people like
- 28:26Speaker 6: about to commit suicide. A lot of a lot of
- 28:29Speaker 6: people like I saved them through their day, you know
- 28:31Speaker 6: what I'm saying, and I just me reading them DMS.
- 28:35Speaker 1: I don't take that for granted.
- 28:36Speaker 6: So I feel like I'm doing his legacy right now
- 28:38Speaker 6: because he taught me everything.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Did you get to hear him say that he was
- 28:42Speaker 2: proud of.
- 28:44Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Yeah yeah.
- 28:46Speaker 6: I bought him that crib and I just told him
- 28:49Speaker 6: it's because of you. You know, it's because of you.
- 28:52Speaker 6: You don't gotta pay a bill, like you know, he
- 28:55Speaker 6: gave me music, He forced it on me. You know
- 28:57Speaker 6: what I'm saying. He gave me God, he showed me everything.
- 29:00Speaker 6: So it was like, yeah, for sure, even.
- 29:03Speaker 1: When I went to York.
- 29:03Speaker 6: Before I went to York, I'm like, bro, I'm about
- 29:05Speaker 6: to go to York. You know what I'm saying. Forget
- 29:07Speaker 6: the US. I'm about to go to York and do
- 29:09Speaker 6: a europe tours because of you. I looked him in
- 29:12Speaker 6: his eyes, look because of you. Feel me the way
- 29:15Speaker 6: he died, like you see, like the levard ball thing
- 29:19Speaker 6: he had to imputate his leg, that was kind of
- 29:22Speaker 6: like my dad's situation. But I got Haitian parents, so
- 29:27Speaker 6: it's like they got a lot of pride. Like my
- 29:30Speaker 6: mom and dad be like, we ain't cutting off his leg,
- 29:33Speaker 6: but the doctors would be like, I think it's smart
- 29:36Speaker 6: for you to cut off the foot right now, like
- 29:38Speaker 6: so won't go up. So it's probably be like six years,
- 29:42Speaker 6: like three four years. My mom like, no, we ain't
- 29:45Speaker 6: doing that. Too much pride, like, let's do something else.
- 29:48Speaker 6: So my dad joint is spread, spread it up, you
- 29:52Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So last time I went to
- 29:54Speaker 6: the doctor, like we gotta go about the knee, you
- 29:56Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. And that was the last time
- 29:59Speaker 6: I was with my pot like it was about to
- 30:01Speaker 6: cut his first like leg off on top of his knee.
- 30:06Speaker 6: He just looked at me, balling up like they really
- 30:08Speaker 6: about to take my leg off.
- 30:09Speaker 1: I'm like, we cried like an hour before he went
- 30:13Speaker 1: in there you feel me.
- 30:14Speaker 6: And I went to tour like I went to tour
- 30:16Speaker 6: that wait, and I performed the first show and they
- 30:20Speaker 6: said they about to cut.
- 30:22Speaker 1: The other leg off. They have to right then, like
- 30:26Speaker 1: everything just stopped. I'm like, yeah, I don't know how
- 30:31Speaker 1: we're gonna do this.
- 30:31Speaker 6: She feel me like it really hit my heart. So
- 30:34Speaker 6: once they cut the other leg, that's when we lost them.
- 30:36Speaker 6: You feel me, So that's why it's more of a
- 30:38Speaker 6: while like you feel me. It's more of a while
- 30:41Speaker 6: right now, Like I don't really understand how he went,
- 30:44Speaker 6: but I know God, like knew, like my mom may
- 30:46Speaker 6: want to see my dad like that, I feel she
- 30:48Speaker 6: more at peace right now. I feel like she more
- 30:51Speaker 6: at peace, even though it's a hard thing. She more
- 30:54Speaker 6: at peace knowing he in a better place than seeing them.
- 30:57Speaker 6: How we would have slid absolutely, Wow, I love you,
- 31:04Speaker 6: no for sure? Truth that album is out right now.

- 31:08Speaker 1: Have you performed in Hadiot, No, no, no, it's a
- 31:11Speaker 1: little tricky in Haiti.
- 31:12Speaker 6: Right now, I want to go so bad, But like
- 31:15Speaker 6: you feel me, a lot of people be like, nah,
- 31:16Speaker 6: not right now, you feel me? But I gotta I
- 31:18Speaker 6: gotta compo song on his album Future Enjoy Your Direct Philly,
- 31:22Speaker 6: you feel Me. It's called composa Haitian gyra and I
- 31:25Speaker 6: feel like since why Cleft is about to be one
- 31:27Speaker 6: of the biggest songs to just show Haiti in front
- 31:31Speaker 6: of the world, in a big way, in front of
- 31:33Speaker 6: the mainstream. So all my Haitian is excited about that
- 31:35Speaker 6: for sure.
- 31:36Speaker 5: What's the misconceptions about Haiti you you would like to
- 31:38Speaker 5: clear up as artist?
- 31:41Speaker 6: Yeah, the first thing when people in America think of
- 31:44Speaker 6: Haiti is just I'll say, they just think of like
- 31:49Speaker 6: a bit like a bad country, you know what I'm saying,
- 31:51Speaker 6: like or they think about they think about all the bad,
- 31:57Speaker 6: but it's a lot of good in it, you feel me.
- 31:59Speaker 6: They never like really go there and see the good
- 32:01Speaker 6: and it's a lot of product that come out of it.
- 32:04Speaker 6: It's just like we just it's just L after L
- 32:06Speaker 6: what they put on the news. That's how they show Haiti.
- 32:09Speaker 6: They don't never show the good side. They don't never
- 32:11Speaker 6: show a good.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Part of it.
- 32:13Speaker 6: I feel like in America they they only show Haiti
- 32:15Speaker 6: when it's some bad stuff. Happening, not always, not never
- 32:19Speaker 6: when it's some good stuff, you know what I'm saying.
- 32:20Speaker 6: So I feel like it's gonna change it a little bit.
- 32:23Speaker 6: Like Haiti's a great place. It's a lot of talent,
- 32:25Speaker 6: It's a lot of great people out there.
- 32:27Speaker 2: When I think about Haiti, I think about some strong people.
- 32:30Speaker 5: Yeah, we're bothed against white supremacy, yah, for sure, and
- 32:33Speaker 5: white SUPREMACIYT has been making that country pay for it
- 32:35Speaker 5: ever since.
- 32:36Speaker 6: Yeah, something I look at it something like that too,
- 32:38Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, First, independix strongest people.
- 32:41Speaker 1: You know, I don't know.
- 32:43Speaker 6: I gotta do more research, but I just feel like
- 32:45Speaker 6: you feel me. Something happened, like they just made it
- 32:48Speaker 6: that way, you know what I'm saying. Even separating Haiti
- 32:49Speaker 6: from dr and all that, at first it was one.
- 32:52Speaker 6: It was one people, you know what I'm saying, And
- 32:54Speaker 6: they at one time even speak the same language. You
- 32:57Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. They separated. It's just a lot
- 32:59Speaker 6: of stuff like no, for sure.
- 33:01Speaker 2: You go to the doctor though, right what you mean
- 33:03Speaker 2: just in general?

- 33:33Speaker 5: than that.

- 33:35Speaker 6: They didn't understand the vision at first, and it was
- 33:38Speaker 6: comparing me certain artists, so I understand where it was
- 33:41Speaker 6: coming from. But we were just saying that were bigger
- 33:43Speaker 6: than that. You know what I'm saying. We got hatians
- 33:45Speaker 6: that's gonna come out as africs, that's gonna come out

- 34:19Speaker 6: I want to be everywhere, want to be at all
- 34:21Speaker 6: the parties, want to be at all the sessions. But

- 34:28Speaker 6: feel me when you starving, you'll go for anything. It's like,
- 34:31Speaker 6: I'm hungry, I'll go to this party, I go to

- 34:43Speaker 6: not even laid out to you what you feel me

- 34:47Speaker 6: upcoming artists lose themselves.
- 34:48Speaker 1: They're so hungry, it's like they'll go anywhere.
- 34:51Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, a lot of the stories
- 34:53Speaker 6: out here I can't relate to because I'm.
