- 6:35Speaker 2: like and I start rapping like that, rapping about what
- 6:37Speaker 2: I was going through, and they didn't want to hear that,
- 6:40Speaker 2: so I just start you know what I be on you.
- 6:42Speaker 7: Know, you know, let Me Fly. The title sounds like
- 6:45Speaker 7: a like like a cry for freedom.

- 6:49Speaker 2: Okay, That's how I feel. Like, Like I said, we
- 6:52Speaker 2: coming with back to back to back to back, even
- 6:54Speaker 2: when you think you're not gonna come to that, even
- 6:56Speaker 2: coming to another one, but they still play you like
- 6:58Speaker 2: you ain't like one of them. Like if I'm I'm saying,
- 7:00Speaker 2: I feel like man as I wur turn like, it's
- 7:02Speaker 2: the young it's the young people turn like like let
- 7:04Speaker 2: us fly, not just me.
- 7:06Speaker 8: You you said you used to think rappers were lying, right,
- 7:10Speaker 8: but now the true rapper.

- 7:14Speaker 2: I got I got a little more respect for him.
- 7:16Speaker 2: I got a little more respect for the rappers that
- 7:18Speaker 2: came up before me.
- 7:20Speaker 1: But do you still feel that way about some of
- 7:22Speaker 1: them be lying?
- 7:25Speaker 8: I don't know what was one of the most surprising
- 7:28Speaker 8: truths that you found out about the industry since you've
- 7:30Speaker 8: been in it.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Not even the surprising thing, but like the people that
- 7:36Speaker 2: I listened to, that was one that they wound up
- 7:39Speaker 2: being the ones who was really, like you feel what
- 7:41Speaker 2: I'm saying, ritter than one. So yeah, that's one. That's
- 7:45Speaker 2: one of the truths I loved about it.
- 7:47Speaker 4: And have you spoke the skill of Baby recently?
- 7:49Speaker 2: How he doing? I texted him now that day. You
- 7:51Speaker 2: know he's probably going through some more stuff. You know
- 7:52Speaker 2: what I'm saying, just let him have his moment not
- 7:56Speaker 2: to get his mentor right. It was soon on baby Boy.
- 8:00Speaker 7: Yeah, The Killer Baby Yeah, And you said, you know
- 8:02Speaker 7: this album is feel like freedom. So what made you
- 8:05Speaker 7: feel like I guess cage the most. Was it your
- 8:08Speaker 7: your life or your career?
- 8:10Speaker 2: Now? Really like really like I really got out of this,
- 8:15Speaker 2: But I was just searching for validation from like from
- 8:18Speaker 2: like people who we looked up to coming up, like
- 8:20Speaker 2: you feel what I'm saying. And I came to the
- 8:22Speaker 2: realization like I don't care, like we're gonna be the
- 8:26Speaker 2: new ones and we're gonna we just gonna handle it
- 8:28Speaker 2: how we supposed to handle it, right, And that's how
- 8:30Speaker 2: I feel about it.
- 8:31Speaker 3: Who's you seeking validation.
- 8:33Speaker 2: From like this? I'm just saying, like like bigger artists,
- 8:35Speaker 2: like you know, like not even validation far as like
- 8:38Speaker 2: you know, like when all the younger people was coming
- 8:40Speaker 2: up before us, like how they made superstars, Like I
- 8:43Speaker 2: feel like I feel like like we ain't we ain't
- 8:46Speaker 2: really got like that right now, we ain't really got that.
- 8:50Speaker 8: It's the same in a bunch of different industries. So
- 8:51Speaker 8: I'm a stand up comedian to stand up the greats
- 8:53Speaker 8: before me. I at one point, wanted to live up
- 8:57Speaker 8: to what I thought they expected or what the standard was.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Of exactly right.
- 9:02Speaker 8: But we knew school, so we do ship differently. We
- 9:05Speaker 8: got famous differently, you know what I mean. We have
- 9:07Speaker 8: we shot like up. Our platform grew with the help
- 9:11Speaker 8: of the Internet, which a lot of them didn't have.
- 9:13Speaker 1: So you know, it's it's like that in all arenas,
- 9:16Speaker 1: all industries.
- 9:18Speaker 2: What got you over that though?
- 9:19Speaker 4: Where you didn't feel like you had to I had
- 9:21Speaker 4: a validation or did you get the validation you need it?
- 9:25Speaker 2: I just I don't know, bro, I just woke up
- 9:28Speaker 2: one day it was like I want to step on
- 9:29Speaker 2: everybody at the neck. And I dropped with the hell

- 20:47Speaker 7: but not wanting to speak that type of sh into existence.
- 20:51Speaker 3: But I'm honest.
- 20:51Speaker 7: You said you don't see yourself growing old.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Oh I said probably okay, but probably not.
- 21:01Speaker 3: But you're planning to you don't want to move.
- 21:03Speaker 2: You said you want to have kids, but I don't know,
- 21:06Speaker 2: like if my health, Like I don't know like you
- 21:09Speaker 2: feel I'm saying, that's for God to say, but I've
- 21:11Speaker 2: been living. I don't know. You feel me, I said,
- 21:15Speaker 2: probably not, Like that's just how we feel.
- 21:18Speaker 6: Me Sometimes you feel like that things are so good
- 21:20Speaker 6: right now or just you just don't know, just things
- 21:23Speaker 6: going good.
- 21:23Speaker 2: But I just seen like my whole family going, I've
- 21:25Speaker 2: seen things turn.
- 21:27Speaker 9: So probably not your health, like just like everything, like
- 21:31Speaker 9: I don't I'm so used to, like, bro, I'm gonna
- 21:34Speaker 9: just keep it a hunted like you know when you
- 21:36Speaker 9: when you brought my whole family go, I didn't watch
- 21:38Speaker 9: my whole family die like, so this is what I'm
- 21:41Speaker 9: just used to mentally, even though it might be some.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Fun up ship to say, like, but that's just that's
- 21:47Speaker 2: just how I think. Like like even when I go
- 21:49Speaker 2: to club, I think about death all dayly because so
- 21:53Speaker 2: many people then died like in front of me. Like
- 21:55Speaker 2: you feel what I'm saying. So that's just what I
- 21:57Speaker 2: be thinking about.
- 21:58Speaker 7: But the same way you the children for a city,
- 22:00Speaker 7: you the chosen for your family because you could be
- 22:02Speaker 7: the generational curse break for sure, I think I am, and.
- 22:06Speaker 8: Then what about any type of therapy you never thought
- 22:08Speaker 8: about sitting down talking to somebody professionally about.
- 22:11Speaker 2: You told me through that ship.
- 22:13Speaker 1: Oh worry if your girl is telling you to do it.
- 22:16Speaker 2: I don't feel like there's too much. I can't talk
- 22:18Speaker 2: to your people about what I'd be talking about, man,
- 22:20Speaker 2: what I'd be thinking in my head.
- 22:22Speaker 3: That's the whole point. If you find the right person.
- 22:25Speaker 2: I don't trust nobody like that.
- 22:28Speaker 3: If your girl wants you to go, you should go.
- 22:30Speaker 7: You trust her, you think so, yes, because that means
- 22:32Speaker 7: she sees something that you probably don't even see.
- 22:34Speaker 3: Probably she probably see a lot.
- 22:35Speaker 7: Of the unhealed trauma that you're trying to you know,
- 22:38Speaker 7: bury put away or rap about.
- 22:41Speaker 5: And she probably see the family you carry a lot.
- 22:43Speaker 6: I'm sure she sees that she's in the health profession,
- 22:46Speaker 6: right or you were going to be I was. You
- 22:51Speaker 6: say it's called blousing, is how you said? Blessing, blessing
- 22:53Speaker 6: un blessing. You talk about like your uncle being locked
- 22:56Speaker 6: up and taking care of everybody. So I'm sure she's
- 22:58Speaker 6: watching all of that too, Because then you talk about
- 22:59Speaker 6: the pill was a game?
- 23:02Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. I gotta listen to him. She's smart too,
- 23:05Speaker 2: so he's saying this I might do for real. I
- 23:09Speaker 2: was just if I have my phone in here with Yeah,
- 23:12Speaker 2: I was called the lady to call the lady who
- 23:14Speaker 2: call this girl there. I was going to tell her
- 23:23Speaker 2: set it up, is what I'm saying. Said like play
- 23:27Speaker 2: all the man? He did not right, don't do that.

- 23:56Speaker 2: trouble or nothing like. They didn't call me about it
- 23:58Speaker 2: or nothing like. But my in my in my my
- 24:02Speaker 2: carriage time like bad move for me? Make it disappear.

- 24:21Speaker 3: your legacy? Did you try? Did you try to burn
- 24:24Speaker 3: some of the old version of you there?
- 24:26Speaker 2: Man, I'm just trying to rap for real. I want

- 24:43Speaker 1: That's number nine.
- 24:45Speaker 2: Play.
- 24:47Speaker 1: I didn't know you playing.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Funny as hell.
- 24:53Speaker 6: You You you talked about on the Poor mind Spot

- 25:28Speaker 1: young dad.
- 25:29Speaker 2: You feel.
- 25:31Speaker 1: You know. So what stopped me?
- 25:36Speaker 2: Not even God? I'm trying.
- 25:38Speaker 6: Yeah, if God said the same boy or girl, girl.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Dad a healthy kid, I swear the guy that's crazy.
- 25:47Speaker 2: I ain't used to think like that.
- 25:50Speaker 3: You never wanted to kid.
- 25:51Speaker 2: I'm just saying, used to think like healthy kid. Like,
- 25:53Speaker 2: but I see like that ship real like healthy kid.
- 25:57Speaker 2: That's it. I just want a healthy kid.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Make you want a child?
- 26:00Speaker 6: Now?
- 26:00Speaker 7: You know you always hear women say y'all want a kid,
- 26:02Speaker 7: don't want to kill? What make you feel like you
- 26:03Speaker 7: want one right now?
- 26:04Speaker 2: Just because I didn't? That was so much lost in
- 26:06Speaker 2: my life. I want to build my family back up.
- 26:08Speaker 2: That's dope. My whole family gone for real. Like my
- 26:12Speaker 2: mama had four brothers, two sisters. Five brothers, two sisters,
- 26:16Speaker 2: all of them dead, one of them alive, my uncle
- 26:19Speaker 2: and here in jail, we all stay in the same house.
- 26:24Speaker 8: So for that reason that you just said, that's why
- 26:26Speaker 8: you have to break the generational curse. You know you
- 26:28Speaker 8: still got You're still aware, very aware of what happened
- 26:31Speaker 8: to your family. You don't want this to happen to you.
- 26:35Speaker 8: You got to get out of that mindset. You got
- 26:37Speaker 8: to change your mindset because you you're about to. You
- 26:39Speaker 8: want to build a family, you know what I'm saying,
- 26:42Speaker 8: And you want to have your own family because most
- 26:43Speaker 8: of yours is gone, so you.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Can do that.
- 26:47Speaker 2: I'll be thinking about moving back to New Orleans for
- 26:49Speaker 2: that reason too, bro, just because I want just like
- 26:52Speaker 2: get a big house, like I called bard man, like man,
- 26:54Speaker 2: send me you a house so my whole family can

- 33:42Speaker 7: Do you want to be remembered as as a great rapper,
- 33:45Speaker 7: a street legend, or somebody who made it out and gave.
- 33:47Speaker 2: The blueprint blueprint? Uh? You know, it's funny Like I
- 33:51Speaker 2: used to be. I used to look at the I
- 33:52Speaker 2: looked at the I think that was an l A
- 33:54Speaker 2: Wilson And if you way, before I even made anything,
- 33:58Speaker 2: I was on my way to school looking at it.
- 34:00Speaker 2: And then Nigga was like, man, got to teach what's taught.
- 34:03Speaker 2: And that's how I lived, Like That's how I lived
- 34:05Speaker 2: my life, Like I feel like that was the relationship.
- 34:07Speaker 2: He ever said, like, m hm, real.
- 34:10Speaker 4: Now, one time you said you're not a rapper, you
- 34:12Speaker 4: a hustler? Did that change now? But you're rapping now?
- 34:16Speaker 2: Rapping is hustling. Why, That's why I'm here right now,
- 34:19Speaker 2: and I ain't getting no sleep yet. Shit a hustle
- 34:23Speaker 2: feeling real.
- 34:24Speaker 6: People talk a lot about like your business acting man
- 34:26Speaker 6: like you understanding the business and doing your own business.
- 34:29Speaker 5: Where does that come from? Is that Mama four nine
- 34:31Speaker 5: or me?
- 34:33Speaker 2: I just I know how to get some money. I
- 34:36Speaker 2: was a hustling in high school. I was selling weave
- 34:39Speaker 2: before my mama knew. So I always had the mentality
- 34:42Speaker 2: to get some money for myself. So I'll just be
- 34:45Speaker 2: structuring it, right, that's it. I'm a little thinker, so
- 34:47Speaker 2: that's probably it.
- 34:49Speaker 4: What's the biggest misconception about Ralph or.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Now I'm a TikTok rapper, be playing with that.
- 34:57Speaker 5: I don't think songs are so big.
- 35:00Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. But that's not my faults, y'all.
- 35:03Speaker 2: That's just where you heard me at.
- 35:04Speaker 6: What the hell is number one on the TikTok music
- 35:06Speaker 6: charts But even before they get to the charts and
- 35:08Speaker 6: all that, like, I'll be on your songs take over TikTok.
- 35:12Speaker 9: That's y'all fault.
- 35:16Speaker 1: That's your fault. You're making it.
- 35:18Speaker 8: And then GQ named you the most raps most viral
- 35:21Speaker 8: hit maker.
- 35:22Speaker 2: Not for sure, I think that makes sense. Yes, even
- 35:25Speaker 2: though that's crazy to me because I don't feel like
- 35:27Speaker 2: I'm near it is where I want to be in life,
- 35:30Speaker 2: like this is like two percent, like three percent. I
- 35:35Speaker 2: want to get to the hundred. But it's like, man,
- 35:37Speaker 2: I'm low key tired of this ship mixing mingles and
- 35:42Speaker 2: bad images out here, Like I don't want none of that.
- 35:44Speaker 3: Man, you don't got to do it.
- 35:46Speaker 6: So if you could, you could be the best thing
- 35:47Speaker 6: he ever told me. I'll be saying, notice, you got
- 35:49Speaker 6: to do it.
- 35:49Speaker 2: You know what's funny. You know I came here. I
- 35:52Speaker 2: thought I was just doing ya the like, Man, you
- 35:53Speaker 2: gotta man listen, I don't want none of that. Ship already,
- 35:57Speaker 2: feel like I'll be saying too much.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Like you feel me and don't be saying ship.
- 36:04Speaker 2: Even like I feel like that's too much like.
- 36:09Speaker 5: Man speaking parables.
- 36:11Speaker 3: A little bit.
- 36:12Speaker 2: I feel like that's just I don't know, Bron, I
- 36:15Speaker 2: feel like I'm saying too much.
- 36:16Speaker 8: So if you could, you would be like a Kendrick.
- 36:18Speaker 8: You know, he pop out every so often and he
- 36:20Speaker 8: go back in here. You never see him doing no interviews,
- 36:22Speaker 8: just the most we've ever seen him, you know, after
- 36:25Speaker 8: you know that that beef with Kendrick, I mean Drake, Yeah,
- 36:29Speaker 8: he the super Bowl. I felt like he was only
- 36:31Speaker 8: seeing him do interviews and stuff like that because of
- 36:33Speaker 8: the super Bowl and the new album and everything.
- 36:35Speaker 3: But he's still only talking to his music. That's it,
- 36:38Speaker 3: like one Apple music or something.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, one music interview.
- 36:42Speaker 2: That's my dream. Careers Like you put great artists, you
- 36:46Speaker 2: got millions of fans, You can sell out arena where
- 36:49Speaker 2: you want to. You make good music to what everybody's
- 36:52Speaker 2: just going to listen to when you drop it, and
- 36:53Speaker 2: you ain't got to be in no mix. Like when
- 36:56Speaker 2: you go to the arena, you go back and it's
- 36:58Speaker 2: two of y'all. It could be two of your friend
- 37:00Speaker 2: the arena while you go performing from all these people,
- 37:03Speaker 2: like that's my dream career.
- 37:04Speaker 1: That's what success is to you.
- 37:06Speaker 2: Just calm, chill, like sometimes I won't get rashy.
- 37:10Speaker 3: Like but not all the time now because you have
- 37:13Speaker 3: to you.
- 37:13Speaker 2: Fee what I'm saying, because I have to exactly.
- 37:17Speaker 3: You're not too far from that though from that life.
- 37:20Speaker 2: If you think I definitely am bro and think about
- 37:22Speaker 2: you because I have to get ratchet because they know
- 37:25Speaker 2: Ralphil is like bro, that dude gonna bring the vibes like,
- 37:29Speaker 2: but you could.
- 37:29Speaker 3: Do both and that's actually what a great artist is,
- 37:32Speaker 3: like if I can listen to a song like hear
- 37:33Speaker 3: me Mama, honest, I feel like Meeka.
- 37:37Speaker 5: Is a good person.
- 37:38Speaker 6: Talked about that too, because his songs that was like
- 37:40Speaker 6: for the hood and like hype and people considered ratchet.
- 37:42Speaker 6: It turned into energy music and football teams grabbed it,
- 37:45Speaker 6: you know what I mean, Like he made that transition
- 37:47Speaker 6: so well and that's where I see your stuff.
- 37:51Speaker 7: So just the crazy part is though you got people
- 37:53Speaker 7: you can talk to about that, like you're not talking
- 37:55Speaker 7: with people one of the biggest in the world. I
- 38:00Speaker 7: can talk to you, it's superstars from New Orleans, like absolutely,
- 38:04Speaker 7: like he's a superstar, like internationally known superstars.
- 38:08Speaker 5: And generations are living off of our songs.
- 38:09Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you something. I'll be trying not to
- 38:11Speaker 2: do that because I'm so like mentally here want somebody
- 38:16Speaker 2: tell me one little bitty thing. I don't like. I
- 38:19Speaker 2: don't like you for life, so I try not to
- 38:21Speaker 2: even you feel what I'm saying. Put you in that
- 38:24Speaker 2: position and gave me no bad advice. Get me like
- 38:27Speaker 2: you feel me like I try not even do that,
- 38:29Speaker 2: brocause I just hold gruduus. That's it?
- 38:31Speaker 3: Like what you mean? Like, what do they tell you something?
- 38:33Speaker 2: Like if they tell me something, if I get a
- 38:35Speaker 2: little vibe and they be like OK, and then I
- 38:37Speaker 2: feel like you just tell me anything, like I'll never
- 38:40Speaker 2: call you again.
- 38:41Speaker 4: But they could be doing it out of love, like
- 38:42Speaker 4: your man told you don't do this in the video
- 38:44Speaker 4: and you ain't not.
- 38:45Speaker 2: Even that like when they be like, yeah, young, just
- 38:47Speaker 2: keep hustling.
- 38:48Speaker 10: I just actuallyence, I got you.
- 39:01Speaker 2: What do you tell? What do you tell?
- 39:02Speaker 6: Like?
- 39:02Speaker 4: The younger artists coming up right now right came from
- 39:05Speaker 4: a funked up situation like yours. But maybe that what
- 39:07Speaker 4: what would you tell them?
- 39:09Speaker 2: Man, keep going, bro, I'm going to tell you I finished.
- 39:15Speaker 2: Don't look at keep going, don't look at none of
- 39:17Speaker 2: the negative comments that people posting about you. Look at
- 39:20Speaker 2: the positive ones. Don't don't listen to nobody saying, man,
- 39:25Speaker 2: look at all the positive out it every situation and
- 39:27Speaker 2: every situation as a gym. So that's what I mean
- 39:30Speaker 2: by I keep going because I let people in my
- 39:32Speaker 2: ear and and and made me feel like I couldn't
- 39:36Speaker 2: keep going, like I had to stop for I ain't
- 39:38Speaker 2: dropping two years like I ain't dropped since my mind.
- 39:42Speaker 2: That was two years ago. And then I drived with
- 39:44Speaker 2: the Heller and then it just went like I should
- 39:46Speaker 2: have been doing that, like because I had what the
- 39:48Speaker 2: heller when I had my momd like maybe it would
- 39:50Speaker 2: have been bigger like so ship like that. So like, yeah,
- 39:53Speaker 2: just keeping that. I know that, that's right exactly. That's
- 39:59Speaker 2: That's That's what I mean. Me drop what the hell
- 40:01Speaker 2: and ship too. I'm like, man, God, if God pick.
- 40:03Speaker 7: It, he do mm hmm. You talk, you talk God
- 40:06Speaker 7: in your music. So this is my last question for you.
- 40:08Speaker 7: What's fueling you more now? Is it is it prayer or.
- 40:11Speaker 2: Pressure prayer, prayer, prayers, feeling me like God fuels me.
- 40:20Speaker 2: I asked him, I asked him to not give me
- 40:23Speaker 2: what is called free will. I ask for no free will.
- 40:27Speaker 2: I asked him to taking trail of my life. So
- 40:30Speaker 2: that's it. Yeah, that's a.
- 40:32Speaker 8: That's a great way to be questions because you already
- 40:35Speaker 8: said like eighteen times I don't like talking to people.
- 40:38Speaker 1: That's a sign. Hell out of here.
