2:07
Speaker 1: Nah, like, uh I I didn't think. I didn't think
2:12
Speaker 1: I was ever gonna be rapping, so I just kind
2:14
Speaker 1: of like, uh like i'm I'm, I'm, I'm barely in
2:17
Speaker 1: the game type shit with this, like you know, as
2:20
Speaker 1: far as uh my rap career probably like going on
2:23
Speaker 1: three years right now. So uh, I never took I
2:27
Speaker 1: never I never even visualized me being a rappers, like
2:30
Speaker 1: you know, that was my possilim thing. And uh, you know,
2:33
Speaker 1: uh I used to have flows, I used to have
2:36
Speaker 1: rhymes like you know, I used to write some shit down.
2:38
Speaker 1: I used to spit it, but I never took a
2:40
Speaker 1: series until you know, one day I went and laid
2:42
Speaker 1: that ship down in the booth and then uh yeah,
2:45
Speaker 1: that's when you know, it was kind of like a
2:46
Speaker 1: uh it was kind of like an ongoing joke with
2:49
Speaker 1: me and my homies, like I'll be spitting the same
2:51
Speaker 1: verse like three four times around them type shit, you know,
2:53
Speaker 1: and they're like, man, oh, here comes d Boy again
2:56
Speaker 1: with the same old ship, you know, like and then
2:58
Speaker 1: I laid it down and it was just kind of
2:59
Speaker 1: like oh damn, you know, like it ain't funny no more.
3:03
Speaker 1: It's kind of like, oh damn, he's hard. So then
3:05
Speaker 1: that's where I kind of took it and I'm just like,
3:07
Speaker 1: you know, fuck it. Like if I'm gonna wrap and
3:09
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take, I'm gonna make something out of it.
3:11
Speaker 1: Then uh yeah, you know I'm gonna carry the legacy
3:14
Speaker 1: for you know, for me and Min.
3:16
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, like, uh, prior to you taking like
3:20
Speaker 2: like taking rap serious pretty much in the streets.
3:23
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, your thing. Yeah. So you know my posting
3:28
Speaker 1: them they bang we I'm from the same hood as
3:31
Speaker 1: they am, so I basically picked up them traits before
3:33
Speaker 1: I picked up the rap traits.
3:35
Speaker 3: Right, so you followed them footsteps.
3:37
Speaker 1: The wrongs footsteps, you know. So it's I kind of
3:39
Speaker 1: went down to down the banging path and you know,
3:44
Speaker 1: it was just it was just to the point where
3:47
Speaker 1: you know, it's just kind of like, man, I didn't
3:48
Speaker 1: give a fuck about nothing. It was just like, man,
3:50
Speaker 1: I'm from the Bang. I'm ready to I'm ready to
3:52
Speaker 1: do life for this ship type ship. You know, I'm
3:54
Speaker 1: about to crash out over over banging and then uh,
3:58
Speaker 1: you know, it's just kind of like damn, I fell
3:59
Speaker 1: into the music just like damn. Now yeah, cause it's
4:04
Speaker 1: kind of like that Shiit say. It kind of saved
4:07
Speaker 1: my life and my perspective on things. So it was just.
4:11
Speaker 3: Almost like you got you got a reason not to
4:13
Speaker 3: crash out.
4:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then it's just like to to this point now,
4:17
Speaker 1: like where I'm at now, it's kind of like it's
4:21
Speaker 1: just like, uh, you know, I kind of got a
4:22
Speaker 1: purpose now, so it's more of on like a, uh,
4:27
Speaker 1: I got something to lose, rather than being going from
4:32
Speaker 1: fucking like I don't give a fuck what I lose
4:34
Speaker 1: type shit, you know what I mean. So that's the
4:37
Speaker 1: kind of path that I was going on. Like you
4:38
Speaker 1: can ask my family, my homies whatever, like they know
4:41
Speaker 1: like I was. That's I was with the business, you
4:44
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and me being rapping and me
4:48
Speaker 1: getting all this feedback from woop the whooping, you know,
4:51
Speaker 1: and just seeing the things that I'm capable of is
4:54
Speaker 1: what kind of just like wow, you know what I'm saying.
4:57
Speaker 1: That kind of just changed my perspective on Shiit Like man,
5:02
Speaker 1: you know what, like you know it's big. It's a
5:04
Speaker 1: bigger picture than what I'm normally used to, you know
5:08
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
5:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like that's that's almost like, uh, I
5:11
Speaker 2: feel like when you're in that that that that environment
5:15
Speaker 2: unless you maybe have a kid or you know, I.
5:18
Speaker 3: Know you're you're you're fresher fatherhood.
5:19
Speaker 1: Right well, ship my baby do any day now?
5:22
Speaker 3: So you got a baby coming anytime?
5:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, the do day was a Friday, so she being
5:26
Speaker 1: stubborn so.
5:27
Speaker 3: Couldn't funk around to be right now.
5:29
Speaker 1: It could be right now, And I got an ad kay,
5:30
Speaker 1: I got a bounce man. So now.
5:32
Speaker 2: But I'm saying, like, you know, obviously that's something else,
5:34
Speaker 2: another purpose that you have now. But I think that's
5:36
Speaker 2: another thing like when you when you're in a certain environment,
5:39
Speaker 2: like you kind of feel like you know, there is
5:42
Speaker 2: no there's no bigger picture. Like you said, it's about perspective,
5:46
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
5:47
Speaker 1: It's like yeah, so it's like, uh, all right, now
5:50
Speaker 1: I got a kid. My music is going good. Like
5:54
Speaker 1: from where I was at mentally six years ago or
5:58
Speaker 1: even in the getting like it's I feel like it's
6:02
Speaker 1: been a whole three sixty flip on me right, because shiit,
6:06
Speaker 1: I just man, you know, I just feel like I
6:08
Speaker 1: was like a minister society type shit, you know, like
6:10
Speaker 1: just just like I wouldn't say it like that, but
6:13
Speaker 1: just and I'm not trying to label myself like just
6:17
Speaker 1: on something like damn, I just I just didn't give
6:19
Speaker 1: a fuck, you know, like cares like you know what
6:21
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like this.
6:22
Speaker 2: Almost like living life with no consequences. Yeah, it's like
6:24
Speaker 2: you know, because if you don't care about the consequences,
6:26
Speaker 2: then you you're really like.
6:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but you know that that comes with a
6:31
Speaker 1: lot of pain to the people that do care, you
6:33
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So it's just like, you know,
6:35
Speaker 1: along the way, I know my family they probably watched
6:38
Speaker 1: this shit, and I know they gonna they more happy
6:40
Speaker 1: for me now because they kind of see what type
6:43
Speaker 1: of path that I'm going on and where I come from.
6:47
Speaker 1: You know, there were a lot of a lot of
6:48
Speaker 1: people that you know, my family or whatever, they were
6:51
Speaker 1: scared about I was going, you know what I'm saying,
6:54
Speaker 1: And I feel like if I never picked up the
6:55
Speaker 1: music type shit, hey, you know, it probably would have
6:58
Speaker 1: went that way.
6:58
Speaker 2: Did You're family, your dad, your uncles. Did anybody try
7:04
Speaker 2: to steer you out of the.
7:05
Speaker 1: Oh, everybody my hanging, Like, none of them wanted that

7:17
Speaker 1: else from there, or even homies, even homies that aren't
7:21
Speaker 1: family that watched me grow up. Was like, nah, you
7:25

7:28
Speaker 1: myself because I already had it and started in my
7:30
Speaker 1: head like fuck that. Like, you know, I was already
7:33
Speaker 1: so how would you say it?
7:35
Speaker 2: Uh, maybe not institutionalized, but not institution But I was

8:02

24:09
Speaker 1: so I'm looking. I'm like, man, they don't look too crowded.
24:11
Speaker 1: But then by the time I got on there it
24:12
Speaker 1: was it was a crowd. So I don't know, it
24:16
Speaker 1: was different, man, because I think the biggest shit I
24:19
Speaker 1: did was in New Zealand, and that was a festival
24:21
Speaker 1: and it was like just just that I feel like
24:23
Speaker 1: that prepared me for this arena show, right, just to
24:26
Speaker 1: have that vibe and that you know, it's a different
24:29
Speaker 1: from just having a show back home type shit. So yeah, man,
24:33
Speaker 1: it was crazy.
24:34
Speaker 2: Man.
24:34
Speaker 1: I usually don't be getting stage fright type shit, but
24:37
Speaker 1: you know, I kind of look, oh, I can imagine
24:39
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and just like getting the
24:40
Speaker 1: vibe hearing the music all through the fucking arena.
24:43
Speaker 3: So it was just like, how long did you have
24:44
Speaker 3: to do? Ten minutes?
24:45
Speaker 1: I did ten minutes.
24:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, by the time you get through ten minutes, you.
24:47
Speaker 1: Know, yeah, not for sure, you know what I'm saying,
24:49
Speaker 1: But that ten minutes for like an hour. It was
24:50
Speaker 1: like a hour for sure. But you know what, like man,
24:54
Speaker 1: I I get that nervousness, but already know I'm gonna
24:57
Speaker 1: do my thing. Once I got on there, it was
24:59
Speaker 1: just like every other show. Man. I just went up
25:01
Speaker 1: there and you know, had the crowd rocking.
25:03
Speaker 2: Who would you consider to be like your biggest influences
25:06
Speaker 2: outside of your family in terms of just the hip
25:08
Speaker 2: hop shit?
25:09
Speaker 3: Like could you grow up listening.
25:10
Speaker 1: To man a lot of like even mag ten and
25:13
Speaker 1: all them, you know, like mag Ten of Quick, I'm
25:16
Speaker 1: listening to all that shit on repeat, Bone Thugs in Harmony,
25:22
Speaker 1: and then's just everybody else that was growing up that's
25:24
Speaker 1: all part of the La rap scene. Joe, Joe, Moses,
25:28
Speaker 1: r J, Nip, you know what I'm saying, YG and
25:31
Speaker 1: all that shit, Like, you know, like it was hard
25:33
Speaker 1: for sure. You know, they all play some on this
25:35
Speaker 1: music shit.
25:36
Speaker 2: I wonder what are your thoughts on just like the
25:40
Speaker 2: new landscape of like gang culture and politics being so
25:48
Speaker 2: openly discussed.
25:49
Speaker 1: On this podcast on podcast.
25:50
Speaker 3: And even like members of it's pretty crazy.
25:54
Speaker 1: I don't fuck with that shit, Like whatever that's happening
25:59
Speaker 1: within your hood and your homies or whatever that's even
26:02
Speaker 1: on the streets should not be broadcasted on these platforms,
26:05
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And then it's just like
26:08
Speaker 1: that ship ain't gangster to me, because it's like you're
26:11
Speaker 1: letting all these other people know what's going on within
26:13
Speaker 1: y'all ship, and then now everybody else's opinion is getting
26:17
Speaker 1: caught up with y'all hood and it's just.
26:19
Speaker 2: And then like tiktoks get made, yes, and then people
26:22
Speaker 2: make YouTube documentary like the YouTube documentaries, you know.
26:24
Speaker 1: What, I what I feel about it, It's like they're
26:27
Speaker 1: making a mockery out of Game Bang, where a lot
26:30
Speaker 1: of motherfuckers that really put their life on the line
26:33
Speaker 1: for this ship. It's just like, damn, this is what
26:35
Speaker 1: it came to, like, y'all just like it's a it's
26:38
Speaker 1: a it's a it's content now and it's just like
26:42
Speaker 1: and I just feel like it makes it more of
26:44
Speaker 1: a joke. That's why more snitching is going on, more
26:47
Speaker 1: you know, bust ass ship. Motherfucker's doing weird ship. It
26:50
Speaker 1: keeps going on because we're letting We're letting it happen.
26:55
Speaker 1: You know, we're like, we're giving it to the world,
26:58
Speaker 1: so then everybody's changing everybody's perspective on and we're giving
27:02
Speaker 1: everybody else.
27:03
Speaker 2: Say, yeah, I think when you overexpose like a culture
27:06
Speaker 2: that's not supposed to be exposed, it's supposed to be
27:08
Speaker 2: you know, held tight, I feel like people don't take
27:11
Speaker 2: it as serious anymore, and they maybe become desensitized to
27:15
Speaker 2: like how they're supposed to maybe maneuver.
27:19
Speaker 1: And then the public And I'm not gonna speak on
27:21
Speaker 1: every hood because I know like that don't agree with it,
27:24
Speaker 1: like even for mine, Like there's certain shit. I'm never
27:28
Speaker 1: gonna go against my morals to for her likes, for like,
27:32
Speaker 1: to speak out to the crowd for them to try
27:35
Speaker 1: to get my point of view on something. Because if
27:37
Speaker 1: it's real, homie, you know what I'm saying, And y'all
27:39
Speaker 1: tripping and we tripping, ain't nothing to talk about, you
27:42
