- 0:25Speaker 1: the series that I'm dropping, you know what I'm saying,
- 0:29Speaker 1: And yeah we go again. Yeah, I mean, and it's
- 0:32Speaker 1: it's you've been. I told you, man, you've been, because

- 0:39Speaker 1: in the last two years and the last two yeah,
- 0:41Speaker 1: going on three. Yeah, it's crazy. So I thought about
- 0:44Speaker 1: that shit too. I'm like, damn, like is it too
- 0:47Speaker 1: soon or should I you know what I'm saying, But like, nah,
- 0:49Speaker 1: because you know, most artists, you know, even your favorite artist,
- 0:53Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, they give you a classic
- 0:55Speaker 1: album each year. Yeah, and they don't let a year
- 0:57Speaker 1: go by. It's how jay Z used to be back
- 0:59Speaker 1: in the day. Every summer exactly exactly, or he'll hits
- 1:02Speaker 1: you before the year. Is that, you know what I'm saying.
- 1:05Speaker 1: So yeah, Plus for you being independent and owning all
- 1:08Speaker 1: of your music, it's uh, it's for your business model.
- 1:13Speaker 1: The more music you put out, the better it is. Right, Oh, yeah,
- 1:16Speaker 1: it's way better. You know what I'm saying. I'm I'm
- 1:18Speaker 1: I'm so used to the grind now like then the reviews.
- 1:21Speaker 1: The reviews is cool, you feel me, But if I
- 1:24Speaker 1: get stuck on that, I'm gonna be chasing that you
- 1:27Speaker 1: said about like critical response to your ship. Yeah, just
- 1:30Speaker 1: all that, Yeah, exactly. You know what I'm saying. I
- 1:33Speaker 1: feel like you're very much outside of the industry as
- 1:39Speaker 1: you possibly can be. Like I feel like you're on
- 1:42Speaker 1: your mission and whoever wants to fuck with you is
- 1:44Speaker 1: gonna fuck with you. But you're very much like you
- 1:47Speaker 1: got the blinders on and you got your tunnel vision.
- 1:51Speaker 1: And I don't I feel like, you know, I don't
- 1:54Speaker 1: feel like you're like you really deal with a lot
- 1:56Speaker 1: of the industry shit like nah, man, you gotta, you gotta,
- 1:58Speaker 1: you gotta. It's a balance, It's really a balance, you
- 2:02Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Yeah, So you know, but it's
- 2:05Speaker 1: a lot of motherfuckers I do. Fuck with court industry,
- 2:07Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying that fuck with me of course.

- 2:25Speaker 1: email shit, like we actually did that. Yeah, kind of
- 2:27Speaker 1: explain you know. Obviously, rest in peace to Dolph. I'm
- 2:30Speaker 1: assuming this is a record that you've had for a
- 2:32Speaker 1: long time. How long ago was it recorded? Like two
- 2:39Speaker 1: years ago? Wow? Yeah, we recorded like twenty twenty. You
- 2:43Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. We used to just chop it up,
- 2:45Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. He had called me out
- 2:46Speaker 1: facetiming with FaceTime each other every other week or some
- 2:49Speaker 1: shit like. Yeah, he was the best man. Yeah, how like,
- 2:53Speaker 1: was it like a little bit difficult getting the record
- 2:55Speaker 1: clear without him being here? I mean, because we do
- 2:57Speaker 1: know his people are very solid and then you know, man, Yeah,
- 3:01Speaker 1: I had to go through some channels I had to
- 3:03Speaker 1: go through. I had to go through some channels. You
- 3:05Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Managers, record label, you know what
- 3:08Speaker 1: I'm saying, Legal teams, you know what I'm saying. They
- 3:11Speaker 1: they all know who I am. You feel me. I
- 3:13Speaker 1: did it myself. I made them phone calls myself. You
- 3:16Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I didn't send nobody to do that.
- 3:18Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, how like, how big
- 3:20Speaker 1: would you describe your like music team to be? I
- 3:23Speaker 1: got a team? Definitely, I got a team. But sometimes
- 3:26Speaker 1: you know, I be wanting to make the cause myself.
- 3:28Speaker 1: You feel me. They hit different that way. Yeah, it
- 3:30Speaker 1: just hit different that way, you feel me? And then
- 3:32Speaker 1: after that, you know what I'm saying, I put them
- 3:34Speaker 1: with my team and then my team will take care
- 3:36Speaker 1: of the rest. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, it's definitely.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I even feel like I just had an artist who
- 3:42Speaker 1: his PR person was hitting me and I just FaceTime.

- 4:03Speaker 1: well that and like also like this the way I
- 4:05Speaker 1: look at it, if your your album's coming out, you're
- 4:08Speaker 1: at a level where PR is helpful, but like I
- 4:11Speaker 1: feel like you're kind of paying the PR person to
- 4:14Speaker 1: bridge you from in the new media situations you couldn't
- 4:20Speaker 1: get onto yourself for you know, yeah, who else is

- 11:26Speaker 1: like you're doing like you're doing that. Rappers with major
- 11:29Speaker 1: deals aren't doing. You're making money. They're not making exactly.

- 12:03Speaker 1: Just keep everybody. It'll come to you, bro, don't worry
- 12:07Speaker 1: about going to it. You and Davey still doing the
- 12:09Speaker 1: project together for sure, it's almost done. We're gonna go
- 12:12Speaker 1: on tour together. I probably shouldn't have said that, but
- 12:16Speaker 1: what I'm saying, that's that's that's what it is. You
- 12:18Speaker 1: feel me for sure? That's big man. I want to
- 12:20Speaker 1: know your thoughts on when you first saw Kendrick's video
- 12:24Speaker 1: The Hard Part five Man, amazing number one. You know
- 12:32Speaker 1: what I'm saying, I damn it, I damn it dropped
- 12:34Speaker 1: a tear. You know what I'm saying. That shit was
- 12:37Speaker 1: just when it got to Nip Park. You feel me.
- 12:39Speaker 1: It was just that shit was crazy. The movement, the gestures, everything,
- 12:43Speaker 1: the mannerism, everything like that shit, it shit hit different.
- 12:47Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Definitely it was that words,
- 12:50Speaker 1: just just just what he was saying, like it was,
- 12:52Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, some real impacted ship, do
- 12:56Speaker 1: you uh? Because when I saw that, I was like, Okay,
- 12:59Speaker 1: well obviously this is a powerful moment. First of all,
- 13:03Speaker 1: it's the first music we've heard from Kendrick in five
- 13:06Speaker 1: five years. You know what I'm saying, It's the first
- 13:09Speaker 1: it's the first look we get from, you know what
- 13:10Speaker 1: I'm saying, the first sound we get from. And then
- 13:13Speaker 1: for him to do that was to me, like, that's
- 13:17Speaker 1: a hard thing to do without it, I like, it's
- 13:21Speaker 1: just it's only I feel like only Kendrick could have
- 13:24Speaker 1: did that. Yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, because
- 13:26Speaker 1: I think that somebody else would have did that. Yeah,
- 13:29Speaker 1: people would have looked at him like crazy. Yeah you
- 13:33Speaker 1: do you happen to know if like he ran that
- 13:35Speaker 1: by like Sam or anybody before it came out, or
- 13:38Speaker 1: was it kind of like did everyone hear it when
- 13:39Speaker 1: everyone heard it? Nah? I mean, shit like that come
- 13:43Speaker 1: from the heart. You know what I'm saying. I don't
- 13:45Speaker 1: think you gotta you know what I'm saying, run shit
- 13:47Speaker 1: like that about the team, especially you being Kendrick and
- 13:49Speaker 1: we you know what I'm saying, we fuck with you
- 13:51Speaker 1: with the team, you home team family. You feel me, Yeah,
- 13:56Speaker 1: I think that's something just straight from the heart. You
- 13:58Speaker 1: feel me like, I ain't even gonna let nobody even
- 14:00Speaker 1: know I'm doing it. Y'all gonna see it when y'all
- 14:02Speaker 1: see it. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was powerful, dude. Yeah,
- 14:05Speaker 1: it's crazy because I also feel like when that happened,
- 14:08Speaker 1: you know, we didn't get to hear from Kendrick and
- 14:10Speaker 1: the Turn, like Kendrick, I mean, we wait five years, right,
- 14:15Speaker 1: so when we lost Nip man, Like you know, when
- 14:18Speaker 1: we think of La, we think of Nip and we
- 14:20Speaker 1: think of Kendrick, Yeah exactly, and to like finally kind
- 14:24Speaker 1: of get to hear him, you know, put his thoughts
- 14:29Speaker 1: into anything about just any any Yeah, but just that loss,
- 14:32Speaker 1: like you know, it's just man, It's just it was crazy.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Like you said, it was some real emotional ship. Yeah,
- 14:38Speaker 1: this sh it was trippy at first. I looked at it.
- 14:40Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what I'm saying, just going through
- 14:42Speaker 1: all the different faces, not even just Nip just yeah, Kobe,
- 14:47Speaker 1: it's all of it. Yeah, super crazy man. Let's talk
- 14:51Speaker 1: about like you obviously are very much active as an artist,
- 14:56Speaker 1: but I do feel like you have some CEO ship
- 14:59Speaker 1: in you. Are you signing artists? Are you gonna be
- 15:03Speaker 1: like doing the label thing? I know that's definitely something
- 15:06Speaker 1: I'm gonna do. Uh, I'm gonna drop this mixtape with Drama.
- 15:11Speaker 1: There's a Drama take is it again? Shouldn't? Definitely? So
- 15:17Speaker 1: you got a Gangster Girls coming? Yeah? Man, Yeah, I'm

- 18:39Speaker 1: I had Trell up here and I saw you win
- 18:42Speaker 1: up to No Jumper and did an interview with him.
- 18:45Speaker 1: Can you for people who aren't aware as to why
- 18:47Speaker 1: that was a big deal? Man? Because there might be
- 18:49Speaker 1: people who are watching this who aren't from LA, who
- 18:51Speaker 1: aren't hip to the politics of LA. So why was
- 18:54Speaker 1: that such a big deal that you and t Rel
- 18:55Speaker 1: sat with each other? Man? Number One? Shout out to
- 18:57Speaker 1: treel Man. Great guy, Yeah, real, one hundred dude, solid dude.
- 19:02Speaker 1: You feel me, you know, I feel like you know,
- 19:04Speaker 1: we come from the same shit. You know what I'm saying,
- 19:07Speaker 1: you know, South central LA. You know what I'm saying,
- 19:09Speaker 1: the hoods, the you know what I'm saying, going to jail,
- 19:12Speaker 1: you know. So it's like, at some point, you know
- 19:16Speaker 1: what I'm saying, you gotta you got you gotta show
- 19:18Speaker 1: the young niggas that, you know what I'm saying. We
- 19:20Speaker 1: can elevate, we can grow, you know what I'm saying,
- 19:23Speaker 1: and something beyond just you know what I'm saying, doing
- 19:25Speaker 1: that we can't get do bennings together. Niggas can't get
- 19:28Speaker 1: money together, you know what I'm saying. So yeah, because
- 19:31Speaker 1: your guys's neighborhoods obviously don't get along. Now, it's probably
- 19:34Speaker 1: the most notorious disagreement in LA in the LA Street politics.
- 19:40Speaker 1: So like, I just thought that was dope, man, because
- 19:43Speaker 1: I do feel like eventually somebody's gotta you know, show
- 19:47Speaker 1: everybody that, yeah, somebody gotta do it. You feel me,
- 19:49Speaker 1: just because based on the politics, you know what I'm saying.
- 19:51Speaker 1: You know how LA is like, oh, you ain't supposed
- 19:53Speaker 1: to do this. You ain't supposed to all. They ain't
- 19:55Speaker 1: supposed talk to They ain't supposed to kick it with them.
- 19:57Speaker 1: You feel me, But you're your own man at the
- 19:59Speaker 1: end of the day, Like you feel me and my
- 20:02Speaker 1: homies they fucked with that day and they ain't against it.
- 20:05Speaker 1: They wasn't opposed to it. You know what I'm saying.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Niggas can't be like, oh, nigga, you wouldn't did that
- 20:09Speaker 1: with feel me. It don't work like that. Do you
- 20:12Speaker 1: think that there's like because I think when it passed,
- 20:15Speaker 1: obviously everybody uh when big you set up uh where
- 20:20Speaker 1: everybody had marched over there together, which was a big deal.
- 20:25Speaker 1: But what do you think is like the key in
- 20:29Speaker 1: breaking the cycle? Because it's hard to tell people. I
- 20:34Speaker 1: think it gotta be more of that right there, what
- 20:36Speaker 1: you just said. It can't just be done just only
- 20:39Speaker 1: on you know what I'm saying, just one day. It
- 20:43Speaker 1: gotta be done multiple times. You feel me. They gotta
- 20:46Speaker 1: they got they gotta, they gotta get used to being
- 20:49Speaker 1: with each other, being around each other and not doing shit.
- 20:51Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You feel me because I
- 20:54Speaker 1: mean it was good to see people that I know
- 20:57Speaker 1: that you know what I'm saying, then probably wouldn't even
- 20:59Speaker 1: be with each other on standing around each other, you
- 21:02Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, next to each other. So you know,
- 21:04Speaker 1: I think more of it. I think you know what
- 21:07Speaker 1: I'm saying, niggas that get the point. Yeah, I just
- 21:09Speaker 1: think like when there's like such a I always say,
- 21:13Speaker 1: you can't tell people how to react to certain shit.
- 21:16Speaker 1: Right So if somebody, you know, once upon a time
- 21:19Speaker 1: maybe took your cousin's life, or your brother's life. I
- 21:22Speaker 1: can't tell anybody how to react to that, but like eventually,
- 21:25Speaker 1: it's like you would hope one day the cycle, because
- 21:28Speaker 1: it's just every time a reaction happens to an action
- 21:33Speaker 1: just resets the whole thing exactly. And sometimes you be
- 21:35Speaker 1: thinking like it ain't gonna stop, like it's never ending.
- 21:39Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, somebody gotta do it. It
- 21:43Speaker 1: can't be done. I believe it can't be done, you
- 21:45Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. That's why I thought it was
- 21:46Speaker 1: dope to see you guys sit together, man, because Trell's
- 21:48Speaker 1: a great guy. You're a great guy, and it's like
- 21:50Speaker 1: some real leadership shit to like show everybody else, Yeah,
- 21:54Speaker 1: that is possible exactly. Somebody else gonna watch that. And
- 21:58Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, they might be feeling a
- 22:01Speaker 1: certain way about another situation. They you know what I'm saying,
- 22:03Speaker 1: They might be like, oh, well, well I can do
- 22:05Speaker 1: it over here. Was there ever any situation where you
- 22:11Speaker 1: on the music side where maybe you wanted to work
- 22:15Speaker 1: with somebody or somebody wanted to work with you, but
- 22:17Speaker 1: y'all just couldn't make it happen just because of the politics.
- 22:20Speaker 1: Uh nah, nah, I mean I would say, like niggas
- 22:28Speaker 1: like two eleven or Schoolboy Q, but like I mean,
- 22:31Speaker 1: we never let the hood shit like get in the
- 22:34Speaker 1: way of that ship. You know what I'm saying. We
- 22:35Speaker 1: always want to do records with each other and shit
- 22:37Speaker 1: like that. You feel me, But it's just you know,
- 22:40Speaker 1: we never did it. But two eleven is a great guy. Yeah,
- 22:43Speaker 1: like great guy. I seen him in my hood. I
- 22:45Speaker 1: see him. You know what I'm saying. You see me
- 22:47Speaker 1: in here's hood, you feel me and Q, and Q
- 22:49Speaker 1: is an amazing guy. He's the funny He's the funniest
- 22:51Speaker 1: rapper exactly. He's one. Yeah he said it's a crazy
- 22:55Speaker 1: shit though. Yeah, that's like, that's the main guy I
- 22:57Speaker 1: always think about, like man if Que and Knit record,
- 23:00Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like certain ship like that
- 23:01Speaker 1: that like you know, it would have been crazy. But
- 23:03Speaker 1: like obviously you know, but people who aren't from here
- 23:06Speaker 1: don't understand that kind of shit. So no, they don't
- 23:09Speaker 1: because like everybody, everybody, everybody ain't with getting money, everybody
- 23:14Speaker 1: ain't with the music ship. It's some niggas, that's just
- 23:17Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. They don't give a fuck
- 23:18Speaker 1: about none of that. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. You
- 23:20Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And that's crazy, you feel me,
- 23:22Speaker 1: that's crazy. But they gotta they gotta live life. They
- 23:24Speaker 1: gotta explore a little bit, you feel me. I mean,
- 23:27Speaker 1: I was young before. I remember, I didn't give a
- 23:29Speaker 1: fuck about getting money. You used to be that guy. Yeah, exactly,
- 23:32Speaker 1: so you had to Yeah, I mean, but you you know,
