1:33
Speaker 1: the story. Yeah, the other song of the movements, you know,
1:37
Speaker 1: the beats be so you know, like like you know
1:41
Speaker 1: it like yeah, you know what I'm saying. My beats
1:45
Speaker 1: really hit. How especially on stage, I was gonna say,
1:49
Speaker 1: how like you inspired your like performance game or did
1:54
Speaker 1: you just figure that shit out on your own? I'm
1:56
Speaker 1: a students another game? Yeamn. When I was coming know,
2:00
Speaker 1: we used to watch a lot of a lot of
2:02
Speaker 1: artists perform. Yeah, one artists in particular was his Buster Rons.
2:08
Speaker 1: Of course, he made an announcement, you know, I said,
2:13
Speaker 1: artists need to start performing. Yep, and I took heat
2:19
Speaker 1: and I started studying performers, and uh, I just developed
2:24
Speaker 1: my own style. That's smart. And Bust is one of
2:27
Speaker 1: those ones. Man him and Spliff Star. You've seen him
2:30
Speaker 1: live in person for fucking fire. Yeah yeah, yeah, Busters
2:36

2:51
Speaker 1: the uh the the tour? I mean he had like
2:54
Speaker 1: seven days in LA. It was good. It was dope.
2:58
Speaker 1: Kendrick is also one of those guys that can captivate
3:01
Speaker 1: a crowd without, you know, I think some people mistake
3:05
Speaker 1: screaming and jumping into a mosh pit and crowdsurfing and
3:09
Speaker 1: like just doing wild shit on stage with like good
3:11
Speaker 1: performing and like sure sometimes that goes over well, but
3:15
Speaker 1: I think like your breath control, how you sound, like
3:20
Speaker 1: how captivating you are without doing all the crazy antics
3:23
Speaker 1: on stage, to me is like very more. It's more
3:28
Speaker 1: important because like anybody can like throw shit and CrowdSurf
3:32
Speaker 1: and yeah, I'll be looking at that like that's cool. Yeah,
3:37
Speaker 1: it's like cool. It's like cool if you can't perform
3:39
Speaker 1: and you're like wrapping over your fucking track, all right,
3:41
Speaker 1: it's cool. Yeah, you're wrapping over your two track, but
3:46
Speaker 1: you fucking jumped off of a speaker and you know,
3:48
Speaker 1: sprang your ankle, So everyone's like, Yo, you're a god bro,
3:53
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, Yo, the album is dope, though,
3:56
Speaker 1: Man than you, I really I love the Tie record.
4:00
Speaker 1: OT record is just super flagrantly fucking disrespectful without love.
4:05
Speaker 1: It was like a classic You got just a classic
4:07
Speaker 1: OT moment. Ye shout out my brother man OT shot out.
4:11
Speaker 1: What did he rhyme Vagina with on the song China,
4:14
Speaker 1: China and Vagina. Listen any song in which they rhyme
4:21
Speaker 1: China with vagina? It's amazing. Pelo has a song too short.
4:26
Speaker 1: He was talking about how to make a girl make
4:28
Speaker 1: money off of her pe hole, and I was like,
4:31
Speaker 1: I love that China Vagina. Love it? Yeah, you guys,
4:36
Speaker 1: it sucks. So it's crazy because like I feel like
4:41
Speaker 1: somehow throughout the pandemic, I know the club scene is
4:45
Speaker 1: popping in l A again, But I feel like we
4:47
Speaker 1: kind of lost Like I kind of missed Playhouse. Does
4:51
Speaker 1: that make sense? We gotta understand a lot of the
4:54
Speaker 1: money left with the that pandemic. I just feel like,
4:57
Speaker 1: so it's not a lot of but I'm still like poppy.
4:59
Speaker 1: There's I feel like, you know, there's still spots like
5:01
Speaker 1: the LA function is though, like obviously Penthouse, but I
5:06
Speaker 1: just like I missed Playhouse. I feel like Playhouse was
5:09
Speaker 1: like the spot where like you could go and like
5:12
Speaker 1: you could really have a temperature on what LA sounds
5:14
Speaker 1: like at the time. Well, like you know, one of
5:18
Speaker 1: the people who's in charge of a playoffs is that Dragonfly. Now,
5:21
Speaker 1: so I haven't missed it. I still got shit going on.
5:25
Speaker 1: It's just relocated. Yeah. So I'm the type of person
5:29
Speaker 1: since the pandemic, I've just decided I'm not going outside
5:33
Speaker 1: unless I'm getting paid or unless it's some ship where
5:35
Speaker 1: I'm like it's the homie, I gotta go support. I'll
5:38
Speaker 1: be fucking tired, broke. I'm with the kids. I'm telling
5:42
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. How many songs like did
5:45
Speaker 1: you pull from for this project? Like, I know you've
5:47
Speaker 1: been recording for three years now, you know so was there, like,
5:51
Speaker 1: how many songs didn't make the album? Steven? Was there?
5:58
Speaker 1: I got a lot of songs, a lot, Yeah, it was,
6:01
Speaker 1: it was there. Okay, four songs from the entire like
6:06
Speaker 1: three years, it's what I have, you know, that stayed
6:11
Speaker 1: on the album. And then the rest we was in
6:14
Speaker 1: this record plant for ten days. I think we recorded
6:18
Speaker 1: like probably like seventy five of the project. Yeah, like
6:21
Speaker 1: thirty songs or something like that. Shit. So there's four
6:26
Speaker 1: records on here that are older in terms of just
6:29
Speaker 1: the timeline of when you started recording in since the
6:32
Speaker 1: last album. Yeah, everything else you knocked out in that
6:34
Speaker 1: ten day period. Correct. Wow. Do you feel like you
6:38
Speaker 1: ever become a victim of demo ititis? Where? Yeah, Because
6:43
Speaker 1: like artists will have songs where everybody will hear them,
6:46
Speaker 1: they're like, Yo, that's a fucking hit. But you listen
6:48
Speaker 1: to your own ship and your cruise, listening to your
6:50
Speaker 1: own shit so much that you it gets played out
6:52
Speaker 1: to you. Well, not good songs are good songs, but
7:00
Speaker 1: more so when the songs are being mastered, we get
7:05
Speaker 1: demo artists and we could just be like, nah, it
7:09
Speaker 1: needs to sound like the demo true, or if like
7:12
Speaker 1: you the engineer, Like the engineer would be like, you know,
7:17
Speaker 1: cleaning it up, making it clean. But we like the
7:19
Speaker 1: rough We like the raw material. It happens a lot,
7:23
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. We like how it sound rough,
7:25
Speaker 1: but we just clean it up. Even if I give
7:27
Speaker 1: away to much sauce. No, that's a lot of that's
7:30
Speaker 1: real sauce right there. I mean, I have an artist
7:31
Speaker 1: and we're just going through this album and there was
7:33
Speaker 1: like some shit got moved around like and I was like, yeah, nah,
7:37
Speaker 1: that's that's not how I know it to be, you
7:40
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Especially I think that should be
7:42
Speaker 1: happening too, when like there's like a demo hook cut
7:44
Speaker 1: on someone's record and you have the demo version for
7:47
Speaker 1: so long, but so long, and then then the big
7:50
Speaker 1: artist gets on it and you're like, man, I don't know, yeah,
7:54
Speaker 1: well the big artists that got on these records, well
7:57
Speaker 1: all right. The Funny Ship we had a record that
7:59
Speaker 1: we did. We had two records that we did with
8:01
Speaker 1: tar in the same day, and we just picked. We
8:06
Speaker 1: picked the one that we went with the special Delivery.
8:09
Speaker 1: That shit was like that shit was though both of
8:12
Speaker 1: them is fire. So what happens to the other one. Man,
8:15
Speaker 1: It's just this goes in the vault. You guys are like, uh,

8:22
Speaker 1: though I'm not stingy put it under the deluxe when
8:24
Speaker 1: it comes to tar Are you gonna do it lux?
8:28
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, it's kind of like mundane to me. Yeah,
8:32
Speaker 1: everybody doing the Deluxes and shit like that. I'd rather

15:43
Speaker 1: you're applying to your own imprint? Now? Yeah, for sure,
15:47
Speaker 1: I learned a lot from myself. I learned, you know,
15:50
Speaker 1: first hand, on how to deal with you know, situations,
15:54
Speaker 1: and you feel me even being involved with you know
15:57
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, who you involved with? It's just like
16:00
Speaker 1: you know always you know what I mean, do your
16:03
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, keep your best foot forward.
16:05
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I wouldn't be in the
16:07
Speaker 1: game if it wasn't for usf me, he took a
16:13
Speaker 1: he single handedly took me under his wing and you know,
16:17
Speaker 1: shine shine a lot of light on you know what
16:19
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and learned like the business too. You feel
16:22
Speaker 1: me being on your being on your boss standing on business.
16:26
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Shit like that. It's real, dope.
16:29
Speaker 1: Oh a lot to him and every chance I give
16:32
Speaker 1: you know, I speak to you. But you know what
16:35
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's why, you know, being independent, it's like
16:40
Speaker 1: it's kind of like easy for me. Not easy because
16:43
Speaker 1: it's a lot of weight on our shoulders and shit
16:44
Speaker 1: like that. But you know, being independent, you know, we
16:48
Speaker 1: try to like, you know, tackle certain certain mainstream tactics.
16:55
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, right, take certain mainstream tactics
16:58
Speaker 1: and you know, go with the floor. You know, shit
17:00
Speaker 1: like that, you know, because you know, being independent, like
17:03
Speaker 1: you gotta do more of the work on the business work. Yeah,
17:10
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's a lot more work,
17:12
Speaker 1: it's a lot more tedious, but it's a lot more rewarding.
17:16
Speaker 1: The payoff is worth it, yeah for sure. Because this
17:18

17:26
Speaker 1: Actually my first album was my first album period on
17:33
Speaker 1: God was my first album period. I was when I
17:36
Speaker 1: was signed. I was only signed for uh two mixtapes,
17:40
Speaker 1: which was to those two projects, which was Mister La
17:44
Speaker 1: and the Ghetto. Everything else was ameo. Those were independent
17:49
Speaker 1: early those are yeah, those are independent release records. Yeah,
17:52
Speaker 1: you feel me, so those ameo records is what you know.
17:57
Speaker 1: We have titles too, that's amazing, which keeps us afloat
18:01
Speaker 1: and keeps us going. I mean, you got some fucking classics, man, yea,
18:05
Speaker 1: some real classics. More well, a little bit above a float,
18:08
Speaker 1: but yes, that's fair. Uh. You know what I appreciate
18:13
Speaker 1: about you is like one of the early things that
18:15
Speaker 1: had happened in La when I first moved out here
18:18
Speaker 1: was you and Grido did the first versus Correct, definitely,
18:22
Speaker 1: the first versus It was at the Novo Correct and
18:27
Speaker 1: the Observers. I guess you guys did do too. The
18:30
Speaker 1: first one was at the Novo though, right, the first
18:32
Speaker 1: one was Observe. Oh see, the first one. They thought
18:35
Speaker 1: everybody was gonna die. Yeah. I mean I remember talking
18:39
Speaker 1: to Head and He's like, I'm not gonna be there,
18:41
Speaker 1: and I was like we should go, Like you know
18:43
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna listen to anything LA related. I just
18:45
Speaker 1: listened to head on. I'm like, you know what, you're right,
18:47
Speaker 1: head And it was a success. But it was so
18:50
Speaker 1: dope because I remember y'all going back and forth online
18:53
Speaker 1: and then you guys had this fucking incredible event where
18:56
Speaker 1: everybody was on stage and it just felt like, wow,
19:00
Speaker 1: this is like, this is like history. Low key for sure,
19:03
Speaker 1: it was basically like you know, it was what Gucci
19:08
Speaker 1: and Jeezy did, but we did it because our ship
19:12
Speaker 1: was more like in the in the in the in
19:15
Speaker 1: the moment. It was in the moment. That's what made
19:17
Speaker 1: it different for sure. And the fact that there was
19:19
Speaker 1: no incidents is amazing. Yeah, for sure. Did you guys
19:25
Speaker 1: talk like before it went down, like, was there like
19:28
Speaker 1: a low meet up backstage? We will keep it respectful,
19:30
Speaker 1: we will make sure. No, we didn't know what was
19:32
Speaker 1: gonna happen. What the fuck I was gonna whoop it ad?
19:35
Speaker 1: It was just organized chaos. But then we just like
19:38
Speaker 1: you know, kept it cool and I just playing. We
19:40
Speaker 1: talked about it, Yeah, we talked about it on the
19:43
Speaker 1: phone because it got out of hand. It got out
19:45
Speaker 1: of hand on the like on the internet, the internet,
19:49
Speaker 1: you know, always blows things over portion, and you know,
19:52
Speaker 1: when you don't have communication, you know, it up the nation.
19:55
Speaker 1: So you know, we talked about we uh shout out,
20:00
Speaker 1: Well no oh nos is also an artist. My fault,
20:02
Speaker 1: excuse my fault, my fault. Little enough that he's also
20:05
Speaker 1: an artist for Ameo. But you know he's always been around,
20:10
Speaker 1: you know know, but him and Mafia Horn they got involved,
20:16
Speaker 1: and you know they Mafia Horn talked to Grito Knows
20:20
Speaker 1: to talk to me, and we got on the phone.
20:22
Speaker 1: And when we got on the phone, it was like,
20:24
Speaker 1: you know, it was it was like that, you know
20:26
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Initially, yeah, but you know, they talk
20:31
Speaker 1: to us, talk some sense into us. And then you
20:34
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, we carry out the show and
20:36
Speaker 1: kept it going because it's really bigger than us. Yeah,
20:39
Speaker 1: And sometimes, you know, being in the moment, you don't
20:42
Speaker 1: understand that. Sometimes, being in the beef, you don't understand
20:45
Speaker 1: that it's bigger than you. You got the focus right now,
20:49
Speaker 1: people on you. Right now. They're perpetuating this beef, they
20:52
Speaker 1: perpetuating it and making it blow up. But it's bigger
20:55
Speaker 1: than you. You know, it's more about a whole you
20:59
Speaker 1: feel me in what both of y'all represent, and it
21:03
Speaker 1: could be detrimental. So like, sometimes you gotta rise above
21:07
Speaker 1: yourself and rise above the situation and really like see
21:10
Speaker 1: yourself above it and see the whole game and look
21:13
Speaker 1: at yourself from a bird's off view, and you know,
21:16
Speaker 1: then moved up, move accordingly. You know what I'm saying.
21:20
Speaker 1: So that's what we did. We just seen ourselves birds
21:24
Speaker 1: off view and moved accordingly. And we made money off
21:27
Speaker 1: that shit. That was like my first fifty thousand dollars show. Wow,
21:31

22:58
Speaker 1: and try to look at it from like an ouse
23:00
Speaker 1: point of view. Yeah. So I got on my side though, too,
23:03
Speaker 1: and I got good people around me. Don't want to
23:06
Speaker 1: see me win because they know if I win, they win. Yes,
23:10
Speaker 1: I feel like it's it's uh, you know, that's part
23:13
Speaker 1: of growing up to man like you because you're always
23:15
Speaker 1: gonna have like a biased opinion on what's going on
23:17
Speaker 1: because you're in it. But if you could just look
23:19
Speaker 1: at it from like how it looks at from the outside,
23:22
Speaker 1: like you you you know a lot of people make
23:24
Speaker 1: short sighted decisions because they don't do that correct. Do
23:28
Speaker 1: you feel like nowadays you're kind of like a big
23:32
Speaker 1: homie in la, you know what I mean? So do
23:35
Speaker 1: you find yourself like giving game the artists that you
23:37
Speaker 1: see that you admire, that you might maybe see fucking
23:41
Speaker 1: up or moving like a way in which you might
23:42
Speaker 1: just be able to like, hey, let me give you
23:43
Speaker 1: some game, real quick type shit all the time? Most
23:45
Speaker 1: definitely I'll give game a lot. It's just a you know,
23:50
Speaker 1: I apply it. What is you gonna use it though? Yeah?
23:54
Speaker 1: Like I might tell you about it, but are you
23:56
Speaker 1: gonna like listen? Yeah, Like I'm not really into what
24:00
Speaker 1: it's in my breath because your energy on my energy,
24:03
Speaker 1: you know, So I sort of picked certain times when
24:09
Speaker 1: to speak it. Otherwise you're just trying to hear yourself
24:12
Speaker 1: speak like an old head trying to hear yourself talk,
24:16
Speaker 1: you know. Sometimes being wise, it's not saying nothing at all,
24:19
Speaker 1: feel me. So sometimes you just got to pick the win,
24:22
Speaker 1: the right time to say, the right time to speak.
24:24
Speaker 1: So I just you know, so like you know, I
24:27
Speaker 1: pop it a little bit, you know, give my game,
24:31
Speaker 1: but you know you gotta know how to give it though,
24:35
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying when and when exactly, you know,
24:39
Speaker 1: and being a big homian being like you know these niggas,
24:42
Speaker 1: some niggas like my little brothers. I get mad too, right,
24:46
Speaker 1: and I lose sometimes I could lose my cool and
24:48
Speaker 1: jump out of character too. I'm you know, I'm human too,
24:52
Speaker 1: So you know, I fuck up, players fuck up. But
24:56
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, like it's about you know,
24:58
Speaker 1: recovering and just like you know what, be manning up
25:01
Speaker 1: and be like, hey, look man, I fucked up. You
25:03
Speaker 1: know this is how I should have can you know
25:06
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? So being a big homie like I
25:10
Speaker 1: have to, you know, I got to take on those
25:11
Speaker 1: certain roles. When I was younger, it's just like fu
25:15
Speaker 1: right you feel me, like I don't care like they
25:18
Speaker 1: got my bad. But now that I'm older, I realize
25:21
Speaker 1: that people and IM just older, just wiser. I realized
25:26
Speaker 1: that people have to like like like people have to
25:29
Speaker 1: understand you can't just be out here popping ship and
25:34
Speaker 1: you just look like an old head. It's not cool.
25:38
Speaker 1: Like I know how we use respect you? Yeah, when
25:41
Speaker 1: people got to respect you if you, like you said,
25:44
Speaker 1: if you don't always speak, when you do speak, it
25:46
Speaker 1: carries more weight, true, you know what I mean. And
25:49
Speaker 1: they also have to like respect you to listen for sure,
25:52
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You just can't put put
25:54
Speaker 1: your arm around some young kid that you just saw
25:57
Speaker 1: on Instagram be like hey man, you're sucking up bro,
25:58
Speaker 1: and like fuck out here, bro. Yeah yeah, that's real, yo.
26:04
Speaker 1: What it's like for you because obviously l A is
26:08
Speaker 1: you know, you have Like I said, man, you got classics. Bro.
26:11
Speaker 1: When you look at the metrics, what is your biggest
26:13
Speaker 1: market outside of the state of California. I don't know.
26:17
Speaker 1: I think I need to pay more attention to that.
26:19
Speaker 1: You're gonna put that back in on Spotify, man. Yeah?
26:22
Speaker 1: What about like when you were on I like last
26:26
Speaker 1: time you're on tour, did you notice like a random
26:28
Speaker 1: city where were like, oh, ship, they were really fucking
26:30
Speaker 1: with me even so and so or whatever. It's hard
26:33
Speaker 1: to tell because my energy is everyone's with you want
26:37
Speaker 1: something's done. It's like everybody fu My energy is electrophone. Yeah,
26:41
Speaker 1: so they fuck with me. It's hard to tell, like
26:44
Speaker 1: if they knew the words already and my songs are
26:48
Speaker 1: you know, I know how to tell hooks, I know
26:51
Speaker 1: how to tell a story. I know how to speak
26:53
Speaker 1: to the audience, you know, so I can get them
26:57
Speaker 1: to say what's going on? Because you know, I'm saying
27:00
Speaker 1: my message is pure. So like it's kind of hard
27:05
Speaker 1: as far as when I'm performing and touring. But honestly,
27:09
Speaker 1: I do need to pay more attention to who's what market,
27:15
Speaker 1: what cities is really fuck with me because I want
27:16
Speaker 1: to tackle these cities more. You know. I'm in la
27:19
Speaker 1: Head of course, be out here, you know, trying to
27:22
Speaker 1: you know, I deal with the same pains that my
27:25
Speaker 1: homies deal with. I'm not gone, I'm not too far,
27:28
Speaker 1: I'm not far fetch. I'm you know, I'm here. They
27:32
Speaker 1: can touch me and shit. So it's kind of like
27:34
Speaker 1: I deal with the same depths, the same joy, the
27:37
Speaker 1: same accomplishments, you know what I mean, Like when my
27:39
Speaker 1: homies is up and they win and I see that
27:41
Speaker 1: and I feel that you feel me. So I'm just
27:44
Speaker 1: right here, so I feel like mm hmm, sometimes you
27:48
Speaker 1: can be trapped. Do you feel like you sometimes you
27:52
Speaker 1: can get lost in the sauce of l A and
27:55
Speaker 1: not think of like the country, because I feel like
27:59
Speaker 1: sometimes I could never be lost in sauce man. Well
28:02
Speaker 1: you know I don't mean listen, I'm not talking about
28:04
Speaker 1: from a Gucci man perspective. Can't you could never be lost?
28:17
Speaker 1: He could, he could have sauce, but he could be
28:20
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. If you don't got sauce,
28:22
Speaker 1: you lost in the sauce. You feel me like, do
28:25
Speaker 1: you ever feel like do you ever feel like you
28:27
Speaker 1: know what's going on? Like you you could focus too
28:34
Speaker 1: much on l A and and let and and at
28:37
Speaker 1: times let the bigger picture fall by the wayside, because
28:39
Speaker 1: I do feel like sometimes an l A artists we
28:42
Speaker 1: see like a ceiling get hit and it's like yo,
28:45
Speaker 1: we know you're lit from here to Seattle, Arizona, Vegas
28:50
Speaker 1: sometimes Texas. But like I think sometimes like l A
28:55
Speaker 1: artists are so like focused on l A that it's
28:59
Speaker 1: not I'm not even talking about sonically. I just mean,
29:01
Speaker 1: like you said earlier, like damn, I need to pay
29:02
Speaker 1: attention more, like you know something that Kaylen did early
29:06
Speaker 1: on that I loved. Was like he just went out
29:08
Speaker 1: to Atlanta for like six months. You know, Yeah, he
29:10
Speaker 1: was out there like he was out there, you know
29:11
Speaker 1: what I mean. He tapped in with a lot like
29:13
Speaker 1: I saw that from the jump and I was like, oh,
29:15
Speaker 1: that's that's something I see a lot of people doing that.
29:18
Speaker 1: Blue Bucks do that. Yeah, you know he does, you know,
29:22
Speaker 1: definitely does that. Kaylen of course did that. Another person
29:28
Speaker 1: who did at Massie did that ship big time. You
29:30
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, he did that, But I don't know, bro,
29:33
Speaker 1: you know ship, I'm having fun. That's all that matters.
29:37
Speaker 1: Feed your family, feed my family. I'm having fun. I'm
29:40
Speaker 1: enjoying life. I'll cross those you know what I'm saying
29:45
Speaker 1: once when I get throw those crossroads. And for sure,
29:48
Speaker 1: I do need to pay attention to it though, for sure,
29:50
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And when I get there,
29:52
Speaker 1: I'll get there. But right now, I got right here
29:55
Speaker 1: to deal with. You know, it's people that I have
29:58
Speaker 1: to deal with. I have to, you know, make sure
29:59
Speaker 1: they straight. I have to make sure people is saying times.
30:03
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Sometimes when I'm going too long,
30:05
Speaker 1: you know, shit fucks up, you know what I'm saying,
30:08
Speaker 1: the ruptures and ship like that. Like so I hold
30:10
Speaker 1: a lot of shit together and I stand on that
30:14
Speaker 1: and I could I could you know what I'm saying
30:16
Speaker 1: if if you know, if see if they blow up
30:19
Speaker 1: and he gets you know what I'm saying to you know, uh,
30:22
Speaker 1: New York and all that shit for Shure, that's I'm
30:25
Speaker 1: a we we We're there, you know. I feel like too,
30:27
Speaker 1: Like sonically, he's like an artist that I can see
30:29
Speaker 1: that really happening with right. I feel like he has
30:33
Speaker 1: that young soul that uh the world needs mm hmm.
30:39
Speaker 1: I feel like he has that that that hunger that
30:42
Speaker 1: the world needs to you know what I'm saying experience
30:45
Speaker 1: for sure. You know what if you had to pick
30:49
Speaker 1: a song that you can never perform again, what would
30:52
Speaker 1: be the song you're just kind of tired of performing,
30:54
Speaker 1: tired of performing? Or is it none? Yeah? I don't know,
30:59
Speaker 1: because when I came in game, I came you know,
31:05
Speaker 1: making songs or like which song of yours is the
31:07
Speaker 1: most played out to you? Yeah, like a song where
31:12
Speaker 1: you're like, yo, if I never heard this song from
31:14
Speaker 1: me again, It's fine because I've heard it a million times,
31:16
Speaker 1: like does it get rich? Is it like or is
31:18
Speaker 1: it you just like? No? These are like you know,
31:20
Speaker 1: some artists are like what I'm saying, You got some
31:23
Speaker 1: fucking huge records and do they get played out to you? No? No, Okay,
31:27
Speaker 1: I gotta ask. No, it's a complet compliment. I'm trying
31:31
Speaker 1: to compliment. I appreciate you, my brother. I can talk
31:34
Speaker 1: to you what you trying to say, Bren. I can
31:36
Speaker 1: talk to you, you know what I'm saying. I can
31:38
Speaker 1: be upfront. I can be real with you, you know,
31:40
Speaker 1: because sometimes you know, question be hitting shit in questions.
31:44
Speaker 1: You'll hear like I'm like, you'll hear artists be like, yo,
31:47
Speaker 1: I'm so fucking sick, and like I'm sure Roddy Rich
31:50
Speaker 1: is tired of the box, you know what I mean?
31:51
Speaker 1: He has to be. There's no way Roddy's not tired
31:54
Speaker 1: of the box, at least personally. For me, I'm tired
31:57
Speaker 1: of the box. And I don't have to perform it.
31:59
Speaker 1: I don't know, because like people ask me questions like
32:01
Speaker 1: this all the time, right, and they'd be it'd be
32:04
Speaker 1: like new people with me, Like it'd probably be a
32:06
Speaker 1: new security, new bodyguard with me or something like that, right,
32:09
Speaker 1: or just new people and they'll just be at all
32:13
Speaker 1: at what's going on, you know, because you know it'd
32:16
Speaker 1: be fans running up and RJ let me get a
32:19
Speaker 1: picture random times and shit like that, and they ask
32:21
Speaker 1: me do we'll ever get tired of that? And it's
32:26
Speaker 1: like they cannot be running up to me, right, you know,
32:31
Speaker 1: like I cannot be performing these songs true, you know,
32:34
Speaker 1: so no, I love these songs. These songs just feed
32:38
Speaker 1: my family, these songs just making sure my kids grow strong, right,
32:43
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I love these songs. When
32:45
Speaker 1: I came in the game, I came to make songs
32:47
Speaker 1: that can live on for ten years, you know and beyond.
32:51
Speaker 1: You know, like that's why my songs are so you know,
32:54
Speaker 1: deep rooted into your soul, into your bones, because I
32:58
Speaker 1: do that intentionally. Like I said saying, when I'm in
33:01
Speaker 1: La like a hole shit together, it's like that shit
33:05
Speaker 1: is real. It's not just about me, right, you know,
