  Speaker 2: the Howdy break.
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: They had like a.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Whole like bit, like it looked like almost like a
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: one of those trick spots. I guess how big the
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: building was, but like it was a pickleball like business
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: and I was like, what, Like I didn't even know
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: it was that big of a.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Thing, this popping. I don't even know exactly what it is,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to be honest. In fact, I just from what I've heard,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: it's like kind of little impact, the same way like
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: how I play softball, kind of that same reason, because
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like you know, you're working out, but
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: you're not like really risking injury, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: So I'm definitely curious to try it.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna see what that spot by her crib
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: was looking like, because it was like a big building,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: bro Like, it looked like, I said, like one of
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: those you know, live trampoline spots where you just you know,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: it was like that size building like a burly toon
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: almost yoah.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: When you was little, they had Discovery Zone. Yeah, I
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: remember that Discovery Zone was gassed. Yeah. It was like
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a mini like obstacle course slash like, like the way
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: it was set up was just way more like adventurous
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: than like any other like play place. Yeah. Yeah, and
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: then it just went out of business.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Doog.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: That was a heartbreaker.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we lost a lot of good stuff. It's crazy
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: like some of the stuff like when and Wild. I
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: was really surprised when that shut down.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, went Wild is one that like it's been long
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: enough that I think it was my kids that we
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: were like explaining it to them, like, yeah, there was
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: a park that was like this and there was crazy
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: you know, like people used to go there on the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: weekends and stuff.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, nothing, I don't even hear of anymore's team.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Clubs teen clubs.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, I don't even I don't even hear
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: that no more. I remember like being.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Mad height fifteen sixty years old boy Chris had just
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: got a car and drive it to a teen club,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean?
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Like I don't even hear that no more. It's crazy.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy, to be honest, man, Like I don't
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: even really be hearing about people clubing like that anymore.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Like I feel like they've made everything kind of more
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: like the lounge sports bar kind of vibe. Like even
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: like a lot of spots downtown, like they're like doubling
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: as like you know, a chill kind of bar, maybe
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: a brunch spot. You know what I'm saying.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: It makes sense though, because people don't dance no more,
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Like clubs used to be a place where you could
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: go and go dance and stuff. Like now when you
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: go to a club, bro, like everybody's just standing around
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: on their phones taking pictures, you know what I mean.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: It's not like the same vibe I went.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: To the club in a long time. But I would
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: imagine they're kind of like worried that somebody's gonna record
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: them and like try to go viral clowning them or something. Yeah. Yeah,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: because it even be happening at the basketball court. You
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, people be coming out with cameras
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and stuff, and people be playing different because the cameras
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: end up on like a Instagram highlight reel or something
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: like that. You know.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like my dog said, I just come out here
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: on a Saturday to play ball.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: I've been working all week.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be tough when you're older trying to get
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: some runs in dog. Yeah, man, these be on something else, bro,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Which is funny, man, because when I was a kid,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I was at the court hooping. Bro. You know what
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like we was out there playing. We wasn't
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: out there, you know, messing around like out there like
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: if you came to slides or something, they made you
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: go home. Like, bro, you're not trying to play. Yeah,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you know one where I like, if we were actually
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: playing playing, you was not getting on with slides on
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: right right, let you play because we're playing way too
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: hard for that, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, Bro,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: it's funny because I was thinking about this the other day, right,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: So you know, like we used to hoop like crazy
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: back in the day. Like I was hooping like NonStop
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: all the time. So it's funny. When you were like
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: a hooper and you got the same kind of like
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: wear and tear as like an NBA player. You know
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because like you're really hooping, Like if
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you're playing hard hoop, hooper dog, you was hooping for
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: like fifteen twenty years straight, you know what, ir right,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: So imagine it. And most of the time you're playing
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: outside because you're not you know, you're not playing in
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: gyms all the time, right, And even if you are
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: playing in gyms all the time, you still get that
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: wear and tear from the jump and the moving side
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: of side and stuff like that. Because it's funny, man,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Like I got like a really bad hip because like
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: my whole thing was just like the dribbles, you know
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, left to right right, you know, he
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: thought I was here, Nah, I'm over there, and that
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: like just destroyed my hip, you know what I'm saying.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: That's crazy, But it's so funny because how do you
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: say that and not sound lame when you was just
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a neighborhood hooper right right right, you know what I'm saying,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Like if Lebron it's just like you know, limping at
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: a later age, like ye man, twenty years in the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: NBA most points all you all right.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: Bro, you ate them hips? Earn that you see.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Me lamping after me something? What's up?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: It w work? Bro, it sounds hell. You know what
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, it's not even like the same kind
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: of energy, but you're doing the same thing, you know.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: What I'm saying. Yeah, Yeah, it's so funny.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Man. I was thinking about that the other day to myself, like, Bro,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you're gonna sound so stupid these body problems that when
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: you're old talking about you was playing basketball in your neighborhood.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, Yeah, that's funny.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Real deal, wearing tear for some some hooping on the side,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: like some pickup games. Like yo, man, something that was funny.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: We haven't we haven't been on since the Thanksgiving week.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: It's funny, bro, because like a lot of shows that
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I listened to, they'll take that week off or they'll
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: throw an episode that's not like from that week, you
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like they'll just have like an
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: interview in the can or something, and they'll just drop
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: it that week. You know, Like a lot of podcasts
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: be doing that. But every time the Thanksgiving break comes, dog,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: there's always some crazy news, you know, every single time,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Like this time it was like the Drake, you know,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the Drake lost suit or whatever the thing he's doing
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: with UMG. I remember one Thanksgiving break it was when
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: this is like a whole different category. But when WW
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: when Seeing Punk left WWE, he did like a tell
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: all podcast, like the thing. Oh I remember, like he
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: was super quiet about it and never mentioned anything, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: then he just waited until then and just had to
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: tell all like and said everything that happen and how
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: he felt about the situation. I feel like there's always
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: some kind of like entertainment news bombshell that drops over
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: that given break.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: But also, if you think about it, that's really a
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: good time to drop some big news because people don't
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: talk about it that they give it, you know.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: What I mean. And people are normally off, so you've
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: got to be following on your phone, you know, stories
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: or whatever. You know what I'm saying, Yeah, that's interesting,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: yeah bro, But it's funny. Man. When I when I
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: seen that, I was like, bro, you really soon after
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: a rap battle? That's like you're down bad, Like I
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: don't even know how he really like he gotta be
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: very very sure that there's something there that he's gonna
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: win from to like get that look publicly, or maybe
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: he's just like, man, f it, I'm Drake. Whatever I do,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I'm golden to my fans. You know what I'm saying, Like,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the reasoning was us, but even
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: just going to court period after losing a row battle
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: is crazy, bro.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Bro, Like, even if what he's saying makes sense logically,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: it just doesn't make sense to go through with it,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Like it's rap battle, Bro.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: It's like I think I said in the chat, but
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: that's like you know what I mean.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: We're in the park roasting each other and everybody's like yeah, laughing,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: laugh and laughing, and then I roast you and you're
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: like I'm calling the cops like what It's like, what
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: do you doing it?
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Bro? It's wild, man. And I thought about it too,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Like I didn't think of I didn't think about it.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: But I've seen the video that made me laugh because
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: they were like quoting the Drake song that he dis
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Kendrick talking about like sending season desist. That's some whole shit,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: like some something along those lines, basically saying like doing
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: things like that was weak, right, and then you're gonna
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: come with like before like I'm getting ready to hit.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: A lawsuit, you know what I'm saying, Like yeah, And
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: I heard people trying to defend it, saying like, na,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: he's not going after Kendrick, He's going after the label.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. You know, optics is optics, bro, Like,
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: it just don't look good.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Broy, the fact you look you look salty regardless.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: The funny thing is this is the funniest point to me, like,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: which is like more like inside music type thing. More
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: aside from like what everybody else cares about with it,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: it's just the fact that he's really acting like he's
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: never been the benefit, like he's never benefited from bodying
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and playlisting and stuff like that. Brou Like exactly, that
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: is so delusional to me. I'm like, that's so wild, bro,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: that's so you know when Drake was on top, Bro,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I mean he's still on top, still still on a
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: crazy run. But you know, when Drake drops stuff, they
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: throw it on the front page of Apple Music. They
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: push it to your phone, like you get a notification.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: I don't get notifications about when people drop music. It's
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: only like here and there, I got a notification think
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: about that Sabrina Carpenter album. I don't even know like
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: what kind of music she makes. I know I've seen her.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: I obviously know that she's like popular and stuff, but
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: that that alert should not have come to my phone.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Like I didn't give you any kind of inkling that
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: that's information, you know what I'm saying right right, So,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: like there's certain artists that they'll do that kind of push.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: But it's like, you know, sometimes you'll get online and
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Drake is like the face of every playlist anything you play,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: He's at the top, Like, what is that that's playlisting? Bro?
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Exactly?
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Like if a music provider is putting something right in
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: your face as the first song you can access, like
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to everybody that opens the app, what is.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: That like come on man, like and they're not doing
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: it for free? Exactly, It's yeah, all right, lie, bro.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Like you know when I.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Figured he lost to beat, but after that, I was
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: just like, bro, you really like he really exposing yourself
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: for the whole concept of the whole not like us joint,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Like he's literally saying bro, like you're not part of
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: this culture and you go and do the most jewish
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: response to a rap beef that.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: You can do, Dog, this dude with full caring bro,
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: full caring dog.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: Oh shit, Yo.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Like I said, Bro, he gotta know that some kind
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of check is coming his way from doing this, Like
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: he gotta he gotta have talked to somebody that was like, Yo,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: there's precedence for this. You know, they do. They will
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: have to owe you for damages as long as you
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: can prove x Y and Z. And they probably felt like, yeah,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: we can prove x Y and Z. Let's do it.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: That's insane for dog.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: This is wild man, Like you said, the optics either
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: way you slice it, Bro, it's just like you doubling
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: down that you got waxed.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Yes exactly, like now you like there's no debating or
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: like there's literally people out there that's like nah, man,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Like Drake won the battle. Like after that, Bro, there's
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: no debating it. Like nobody goes to this you know
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: level of headiness if they want, you know what I mean?
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Like, there's no debating in that, Bro.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: And then Drake is online like leaving comments on things
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: like using like little lines from the Kendrick.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Album No Way, I don't know that, bro.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Like doing little puns with it, like he was writing
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: in somebody's chat. I forgot the exact information, but I'll
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: put it on the clip. But he was writing in
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: somebody's chat custard like custard, Like I don't know he
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: was talking about custard. Yeah, and bro, I'm gonna put
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: it in the clip. But it's like, broh, come.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: On, Kendrick living in his head free right now?
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Bro?
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, fact, it's nasty. It's real nasty.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Speaking of that, I have to I have to also
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: say this being objection, being objective. It's like when the
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: album dropped, the new Kendrick album gn X, you know,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: super dope like super fire, but if you listen to
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the lyrics, there's like a few Drake references in there,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: like a lot of it is vague, Like Kendrick has
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: always been like he's just always kind of like he
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: takes that competitive attitude where rap, so he's always like
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I'm better than everybody. So it always shines through his
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: music like that theme. But there was a couple of
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: things that was like very specifically to Drake. So it's
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: like the same way. You know, they both on each
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: other's minds. Dog, you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: they they both you know, still kind of like maneuvering
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: through this thing. And speaking of the album, bro, I
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: thought it was amazing. Bro. Like, for me, I'm a
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: sucker for an album that has a low number count,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, not a low song count.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I like the traditional like can fit on an LP
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: type of album, you know, eight or nine songs forty
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: forty something minutes. You know what I'm saying. That's my
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: vibe right there. So the twelve minutes forty up into
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the twelve songs forty something minutes perfect for me. Yeah,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the songs we're all super dope. There's only everything is
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: some joints you could vibe to, like all the time,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: except for to me, the intro, which is what Whacked
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Out Mirrors reincarnated, and the the NOAs joint, the Man
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: in the Garden, Man at the Yeah, those are more
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: like concept records, so you can't just always bump those
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, Yeah, dog, the other nine you could
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: and listen to those whenever, Like you don't even got
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: to be in the mood to hear those because they're
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: like just bang bro. Yeah. I love the features and
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: how he utilized them. I like the idea of, like
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: when you listen to the joints, Yes, all the features slid,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: all of them did their thing, but Kendrick set them
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: up to do their thing. None of them, none of
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: them outshined Kendrick on the suite, you know what I'm saying.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Like the concepts was Kendrick. You know what I'm saying,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Like the vibe was Kendrick. They did their thing, but nobody,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: nobody stepped on them, you know what I'm saying. And
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: I like the idea of, hey, let's put these guys
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: on the national spotlight because all those guys are popping
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: in LA and like underground, you know what I'm saying.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: But to give them that kind of shine, it's super dope. Yeah.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: And I'm always I'm always like, oh, that's that's what
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about that I forgot about. So
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: right before Kendrick dropped, little Baby teased his album and
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: like the featureless and like the track names and stuff,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: and like Kendrick drops and he just drops with features
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: from no names and he's just sliding all over it
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, dang, bro, Like it goes back to
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: that conversation we had about A Little Baby before. It's like,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: you kind of already know what that album's gonna sound
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: like before it even drops, sactly. You look at the features,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: it's a Little Baby. We know what it is, you
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? And that's the thing where I
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: gotta always give props to Kendrick because whenever he drops
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: a body of work, he's gonna it's gonna be him,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: but he's gonna be exploring a bag. You know what
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I'm saying.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you don't know what you're gonna get exactly.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I feel like every album that we've gotten from Kendrick
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: was a whole different sound.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: It was a different vibe.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Conceptually, it was different and going to your point, you
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: Like the Little Baby's first album, Damn, we was like, Yo.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: That's fire. He was looking forward to the next one.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: The second one came out, he was like, Damn, this
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: sounds damnar identical. It was almost like a formula, you know,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: But that gets old, and that's that's that's that's how
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: you know, that's what separates the grapes, you know, the
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: ones that can stand the test of time.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's kind of like where I would put little
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Baby in the comparison, like in like the fabulous lane,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like for the for the
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: two thousands, it was fabulous. For this time, I feel
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: like it's a little baby, like someone that always is
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: gonna sound like what's going on and it's gonna do
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: it very well. But never was like one that you
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: was like dang bro, like they did something that just
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: did something to my ear that was different A yo, nah, No,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I feel you.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: And I think that's why it's crazy because like I
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: think I talked about this before, where you know, when
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: little Baby, little Baby and Gunna was coming up together,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: I always thought little Baby was better. And then you know,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: there was just a shift where Gunna was like nah,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like there was just a
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: shift at one point.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you could definitely hear that Gunna was the force
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: behind like the song part of whenever they did stuff together,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, little Baby always
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: do his thing. You know. It's kind of it's kind
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: of like the features on the Kendrick album. I feel like,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like he always gonna do
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: his thing. But it's not like you was originally attracted
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: to the song because of his verse, you know what
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. But it sounds like I don't like him,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: but I think he's whack. He's dope. He's just to me,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: he's not on that level like somebody that you're gonna
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: be like, Yo, this this dude is you know up there.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I don't put him like in that category. To me.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: He's kind of like he has been a little big
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Sean to me and ready to me is kind of
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: like out of that top ten, you know what I'm saying,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Like they're you know. And it's funny though, because this
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: something that Stephen A. Smith says about Lebron, like is
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: it he always be like is it that disrespectful that
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, dude is the second best basketball player of
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: all time? Like how is that disrespect disrespectful? You know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: just leaving around what you know, going on like eighty
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: years or something like that, Like we've had so many
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: great players and I'm saying you the second best and
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: people mad about it? You know, that's you know kind
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: of how I feel about rappers too, Like, you know,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: they all want that top spot and they feel disrespected
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: if you take them out of that spot. And it's like, man,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: there's so many man. Yeah.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, music is so subjective, bro, Like,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: it's so subjective. I just you know, I think for
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: us as people that really explore music, you know, like
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: we look at it from an artistic standpoint more than
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: just you know.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Song, you know, where it's something to enjoy.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: It's like now we look at it from a like
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: creative aspect, and that's where you know, somebody like Little
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Baby kind of lost me a little bit just from
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: the same point of like I really want him to
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: tap into to be a little bit more creative, you know.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: That's all.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely feel that I'm the same man like,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: but also like I noticed that that's kind of the
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: minority as well. Like a lot of people that listen
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: to music really just want to hear you do the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: same thing over and over.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: That's very true, you know what I'm saying.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Like the average fan, from what they say, you know,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: they just want to hear that specific sound, Like there's
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: a very specific formula how to make that sound and
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: you know, like I said, you sound good, you sound current,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: but you know, to really lock in the people that's
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: listening to music a different way and really, you know,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: real deal music lovers, you're not really going to engage
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: them like that, you know. But some people don't care
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: about that either, you know what I'm saying. Like that
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: was something that came along with like SoundCloud rappers and
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: stuff too, like that conversation like where they're like, bro,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be the greatest rapper of all time.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: I just got my sound and people like it, you know. Yeah,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: And it's like a whole different kind of like you
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: know idea. Even it's how you tell somebody. It's the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: same thing with the Drake thing, bro, Like how you
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: gonna tell him to make music a different way when
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: he's like one of the biggest artists of all time
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: based off what he's doing. Yeah, it's like you can't
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: you can't argue that you can't tell a dude that's
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: doing that, hey you're doing something wrong, because it's like
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: it's working with somebody ain't doing better than me, So
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: you can't tell me that I'm doing something wrong.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Right, Right, That's right, that's right at the.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: End of the day, man, Like with this music thing, bro, people,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: it's a thing you feel, man, And if you ain't
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: giving people that feeling, you could try to do or
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: pretend or do a lawsuit or whatever. But I heard
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Charlott Mane talk about it like you can't deny like
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: how that song impacted people and how people was really
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: on it like it was and you can't bot real
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: life people just going crazy with the not like us.
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: You know, come on, man, like you can't bro, Bro,
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: my kids.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Was singing that dog and I wasn't playing for it.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: When I played it the first time, they already knew it. Dog.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they were saying the whole thing, that's the same dog.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: For me, I feel like, you know, hip hop fans,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: like real hip hop fans. That was probably the worst
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: move he could have done as a you know, like
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: because even me, like I like, I like Drake, you
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, But like even just that action
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: just really like FORTI fives the whole concept of like, damn, man,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: like this guy is really like not hip hop, you
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: know what I mean.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: Like it's weird, it's weird.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: He's an artist, bro, yeah, you know, he's just he's
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: just an artist. Like, bro, it's funny, man, Like you
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: could pretend all you want, you could, you know, do
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: all this stuff. Like he's been very strategic about like
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: how to insert himself into the culture in certain ways
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: so that people see him next to certain people. You know.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: He was kind of like getting on the wave of
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: like local buzzing rappers and like important cities Like that
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: was like a little thing he was on for a
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: little while, like cities he liked. He was looking for
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: artists that were buzzing in that area to do joints
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: with them and like, you know, do a video with them.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: And it's like, Yo, Drake's pulling up to your hood.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Like everybody's excited, you know what I'm saying. But it's like, bro,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: it don't mean that you're valid. Bro, hold on, somebody
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: calling me brother. Don't disturb me a little baby, all right?
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: But yeah, man, what was I saying? Oh yeah, that
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: that Drake stuff. Man, it's like you can do all
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: those little things. But it's like he's literally from Canada,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, Like even if he
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: grew up like in the hood, it's still not even
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: relatable to how we grew up out here, like just
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: as far as like United States, you know what I'm saying.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: So it's like you're like you're not. It's not like
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: a relatable thing and people feel it. And that's kind
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: of where I feel like he lost his weight, Like
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: I always say it, Bro, when he started getting with
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Ross and started rapping like he was gangster Dog. That's
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: when he lost me. Bro. It was like all right, dog,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Like I like, we know who you are, Bro, we
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: know who you are. Like he was strictly an artist,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: like he was just saying like Yo, I'm just out
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: here making art, and he was good at it, you
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But it's like it kind of
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: goes back to that, like you know that thing about
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: like fabulous and artists like that he's way better than them.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's still kind of the same idea
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: of like you making music of the moment, you know
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, for me, that's not something that
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: reson is. Like literally I got probably like nine Drake
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: songs in my phone library and they're all songs of
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: him singing every single one like that vibe. I love it, though,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Like going back to like the early mixtapes. You know
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. One of those songs is Sooner than Later,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: which is from so Far Gone that I have on
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: my phone, the Bria's Interlude or Bria's Interlude. However you
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: say to Marion, you know, find your love, hold on,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: We're going home, Like those are my joints, you know
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, Yeah, if he just did a
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: whole album like that, dogs, man, I would be locked in,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Like I would be bumping that like crazy, because I
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: feel like that. I honestly feel like that's his lane,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: and I feel like he does real well with those
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: type of records. You know what I'm saying, Like he
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: ends up performing joints like that, like at the Grammys
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: and stuff.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, right right, He's just been
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: trying to do too much.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's the end of it sucks because he's like
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: he's actually talented enough to do too much. But it's like,
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: you know, hip hop is a little different, beast bro,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't know, man,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I hate it. I hate that it came to this
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: point because again, like I said, I did grow up
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: like Drake, you know what I'm saying, Like that So
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Far Gone era Take Care, even the comeback season before
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: So Far Gone, like that was you know Drake where
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: it was like he was singing but he was also rapping,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: but he was in his own lane and then he
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: tried to go into other people's lane where it's like, bro,
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: that's not you.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, I always say like Jakole, Kanye West,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like those were like rappers.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I mean even like going back like most deaf quality
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: common Like these are rappers that are like talking about
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: stuff from their perspective knowing that they're like not that
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: they saw, but they just know they're not about a
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: certain kind of life. Right. But it's not even a
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: bad thing. It just means you smart, bro right right
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, exactly when you really
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: think about it. Dog Like, even this whole idea is
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: like so stupid, you know what I'm saying, Even the
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: way certain artists try to like portray themselves attach themselves,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: you know, the whole gun of thing. When you know
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: people who starting not messing with him or whatever, it's like, bro, y'all,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: y'all out here worried about the wrong thing. Bro y'all. Really,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Bro to me, it's like you ain't
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: learned nothing if you're still on that vibe dog right right.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I understand the the feeling, you know what I'm saying,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Like the even like the fear of like putting yourself
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: in different circles and stuff and just completely turning a
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: whole new leaf and just being on some other stuff.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Like I understand that that's probably like scary and different,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But at the same time, dog, like,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: come on, man, you can't be out here acting the fool,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: especially when you up you know, like the whole, the whole,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: you know, wise cell case they finally like closed everybody
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: he was not like either not guilty or got off
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: on some like really small charges. That's like, you know,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: they pretty much got off Scott free, right, and even
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: that whole thing. It's like, bru, yeah, I better not
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: be on them dumb shit after this, you know what
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like, it's just it's.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Bro like, but the fact that that even has to
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: be a thought, you know what I mean, It's like,
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: dog like, I feel like it don't take in my opinion, bro,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: it doesn't take much common sense to know that, a
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: my talents have gotten me out of my situation, let
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: me not do anything to get back in that situation.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: You know, it doesn't take much.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: And like, don't get me wrong, bro, Like yes, the money,
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: the fame, the you know, everything that comes with it.
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: It's almost like a drug. But it's also like that's where.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but I feel like we've all been
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: like been there where it's like we just decided to
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: go to the other route.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, not for sure, man. And it's it's
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: just a funny thing about music, and it kind of
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: goes back to we is talking about at the beginning
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: with the streams and the playlists and everything like that.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: It's like you see these you know, billion dollar companies
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: put in front and center, a dude, that's whole album
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: is about ignorant street stuff and it's like they seeking
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: out somebody like that. And if that don't tell you
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: what the mentality is in that industry, bro, Like it
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: is right in your face literally literally they're putting it
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: in your face and telling you, yo, this is what
• 29:28

  Speaker 2: artist this year.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: It was actually Tim Bro.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.

  Speaker 4: Like I don't even me wrong.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Obviously I'm listening to her music, but like I just
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: would have never guessed that that would have been my
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: top artist for this year.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Bro.
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: She she doing her thing.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: Bro. Yeah, Tody Dollars Sign was one of those artists
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: for me, like probably like twenty seventeen. He's like always
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: been consistent after that.
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: That's crazy. Yeah.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: I like those little wrap up things because you know,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: it's dope to kind.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: Of see that. Like I said, you know, you probably
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: would never know, you know what I mean?
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: Like you just kind of going about your day and
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: then you know, listening to music, but you don't even
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: realize that damn.
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: Like I've been actually listening to Tims all year, like
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: what and.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Even as an artist, like getting that notification that you
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: was like in the top ten or top five for
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: people to the top one. You know what I'm saying,
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Like the artists that they listened to the most that.
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: Year, Like you'd be like, dagn that's crazy.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like facts, man, that's literally like it's so funny, man,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: because like if you really love making music, like that's
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: all you want is people to listen to it and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: just enjoy it. Yeah, exactly, like it's and that's why
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: it even be so weird for me to even like
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: strategize and try to do all this stuff. It's like, bro,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not I don't know, bro, Like I don't look
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: at music like that dog Like music to me is like, bro,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: I'm just I'm trying to make something that somebody's gonna
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: hear when they're eighty dog and it's going to bring
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: them to tears because they're gonna just they're gonna get
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: a rush of emotion that they remember. It's just gonna
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: hit them.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: And it connects with it like some some moment.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, like the lyrics, the feeling, the melody, the memory.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Like that's that's like what I'm chasing, bro, you know
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And it's hard to like try to
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: figure out, like you know, doing branding guides and like,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you know, just trying to like put on paper like
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: how you can capitalize off of your music when it's
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: dang like, I'm not even thinking about it like that.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: You know. I know there's a lot of people that
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: do be thinking about it like that, and they'll tell
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: me I'm a dummy, you know what I'm saying. But
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: that's why I seek out help with stuff like that,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: because when it comes to me, I just I would
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: I just want people to listen to my music, dog, Like, yeah,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: that's that's what I want.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: Bro.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Obviously I would love to make money off of it
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: and just like exclusively like where I'm just only making
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: music and that's all I gotta worry about.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: But Bro, that's like, man, yeah, we could touch on
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: mind pause in a minute, but but talk a little
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: bit about about that. I Mean you were kind of
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: saying earlier how like you know, like this year, you
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: know what I mean, you didn't really do much as
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: far as promo. It was just kind of putting the
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: music out and then you know, getting your stats kind
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: of talk a little bit about that.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: Man that how that feel?
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah that was pretty dope too, because, like I didn't
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: tell y'all in the chat, but the song that had
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the best opening week was weeking on You and oh
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: so that I produced mixed.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: And man, that's crazy last.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Week my songs, I didn't dropped that many songs. I
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: probably dropped like four songs or something like that. I
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: don't even I don't even know how many songs I
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: dropped this year, to be honest, I know it wasn't
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: that many.
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: I know you've been making a lot of music, but
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: as far as releasing.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I got man recorded. But but yeah, man, it
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: was super dope, like like it really like caught me
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: off guard. As It's like, bro, my promo budget has
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: been literally close to zero the whole year, Like like
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: we talked about the beginning of the year, you know,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: me and my wife opened a nail salon. So it's like, bro,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: that's been like a headache with certain certain aspects of it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, And it's just required so
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: much of me, just financially and just focus wise and
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: stuff that it's like all I could do was be
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: consistent with making music, you know what I'm saying. Like
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: I wasn't in no position to really do any kind
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: of rollouts or promo or like focus. Like I really
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: wanted to put out a project this year if we
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: finished more than one, you know what I'm saying. Yeah,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: as far as like music that I laid down, but
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: like I wasn't able to do it. But man, next year,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: I'm just super excited to just let all this out
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: and really just grow these numbers. That's dope.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: Line, that's dope.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, like for me, like I it was,
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: it was dope to see it, man, because like you know,
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: I've only dropped one song this year, and that was
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: not the plan. Like in the beginning of the year,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: I had like a whole idea of like dropping the album,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: and you know, then just life just really just kind
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: of hit me, you know what I mean. Like I
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: was trying to get out of my my situation with
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: my job and then I was in school and I
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: basically rush through that and then planning a wedding, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: like I didn't even really realize that until I looked
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: at the stats, you know what I mean, because like
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: my stats for this year were actually better than last year.
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: It was just residuals, you know what I mean.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: But like seeing that and then thinking about everything, I'm like,
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: damn bro, Like I've barely been beating myself up about
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: like not you know, being in the music vibe and
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: not feeling creative and not having inspiration. But then I'm
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: like I realized, like, damn, bro, I've done a lot
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: of stuff this year my personal life outside of music,
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: and to see those numbers, I was like, damn bro,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: Like that was it really put the battery in my back,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like to kind of bounce
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: back for twenty five for sure.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, facts, man, with the music stuff and just if
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: you're doing anything creative, like it's always a funny little
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: journey man like and even just like sometimes the magic
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: ain't there and you're trying to reach for it and
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: it just ain't there. And then sometimes it's just like
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: overflowing and you capture it, you know what I'm saying.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: That's why, like I said, Bro, I just made sure
