- 3:58Speaker 1: are like those are those are serious? That's not no
- 4:01Speaker 1: normal shit. I won't do nothing normal around here. Nothing normal. Man.
- 4:05Speaker 1: You got the new album out, Motivation purses great title.
- 4:11Speaker 1: I do feel like you've probably been the source of
- 4:14Speaker 1: motivation and inspiration for a lot of people in terms
- 4:16Speaker 1: of just being an independent boss, being a businessman, being
- 4:20Speaker 1: somebody who has done you know, when it comes to
- 4:25Speaker 1: just longevity in the rap game, not a lot of
- 4:27Speaker 1: people have longevity, and a lot of people can support
- 4:30Speaker 1: themselves for the amount of time that you've been able
- 4:32Speaker 1: to do. So, you know, like you gotta know how
- 4:34Speaker 1: to rap, hustle, rap, hustle, break that down doing like
- 4:39Speaker 1: everything that comes around rap, if it's versus, if it's videos,
- 4:44Speaker 1: if it's you know, different people endorse you. Like you
- 4:48Speaker 1: got to know how to really get off your ass
- 4:50Speaker 1: and get to it. Like a lot of people just
- 4:52Speaker 1: be content and just sit back and you know, like, okay,
- 4:56Speaker 1: so really I kind of like I've seen Gym. One
- 4:59Speaker 1: night we was out Jim Jones, okay, and he was
- 5:03Speaker 1: like he had like three different shows, did like four
- 5:07Speaker 1: verses in one night, Like one guy was like for ten, ten,
- 5:11Speaker 1: twenty thousand. The other guy went over there and had
- 5:13Speaker 1: like sety five hundred, Like he wasn't turning down nothing,
- 5:15Speaker 1: just getting it, running it over there, not saying that
- 5:17Speaker 1: he was doing the same amount of work for the
- 5:20Speaker 1: for the lower but he wasn't turning down nothing. So
- 5:22Speaker 1: you got to get up and rap. Hustle. Yeah, I
- 5:25Speaker 1: think like if you're independent and you know, there's definitely
- 5:29Speaker 1: like there's a way to just super monetize what you're doing.
- 5:34Speaker 1: And then you know, we're rapping, all types of different
- 5:36Speaker 1: things come like Chelsea just hit me right now, a
- 5:39Speaker 1: real bull woman to do something like a freestyle on
- 5:42Speaker 1: the block and they supposed to be paying me for
- 5:45Speaker 1: it or whatever. Then I just started doing the cameo
- 5:48Speaker 1: thing to where you do all you go on cameo
- 5:50Speaker 1: and people can like yo if they want to. You
- 5:52Speaker 1: even want to do a drop for you or like
- 5:53Speaker 1: a happy birthday for So it's like so many different
- 5:57Speaker 1: opportunities that rap bring to you that you can you know, hustle. Yeah.
- 6:01Speaker 1: I think that a lot of artists leave money on
- 6:03Speaker 1: the table. A lot of people because if you're just
- 6:05Speaker 1: depending on I never wanted to do that at first,
- 6:08Speaker 1: like the shout out stuff, right, I never did it.
- 6:11Speaker 1: And one day I'm like, man, let me see, I
- 6:13Speaker 1: think I made like three thousand and one cameo now cameo.
- 6:16Speaker 1: I just started talking about just off my own, Oh
- 6:19Speaker 1: got you got your are you're talking about like if
- 6:20Speaker 1: someone like says, hey, Phil, I want to pay you
- 6:23Speaker 1: pay my shot out my store. And at first I
- 6:27Speaker 1: never was doing that shit. Like I've seen a lot
- 6:28Speaker 1: of rappers doing that shit through the pandemic. Boo's he
- 6:30Speaker 1: be doing that ship. I'm like, man, let me see.
- 6:33Speaker 1: Somebody was like, hey, man, I give you five hundred,
- 6:34Speaker 1: post them the story for me my cash efter to me.
- 6:37Speaker 1: He synth it and I posted. I'm like, oh there's
- 6:40Speaker 1: something here. Yeah, But I never they been asked me
- 6:43Speaker 1: to do I give you two thousand to post me
- 6:45Speaker 1: on your page. I'm like, hell, now you posted on
- 6:46Speaker 1: my page. I just think that there's like a stigma
- 6:50Speaker 1: that I think is probably like not accurate in terms
- 6:55Speaker 1: of like, you know, I think there's certain artists that
- 6:58Speaker 1: like that might not make sense for if you if
- 7:01Speaker 1: you're like the Weekend or you're like but if you're
- 7:03Speaker 1: an independent artist and you're should be doing it, you
- 7:06Speaker 1: should be running it out. Man, Listen that it was
- 7:09Speaker 1: good lucky right now, and I already got like two
- 7:12Speaker 1: of them already seen. Well, think about it. You just
- 7:14Speaker 1: said you got, uh, what's the most amount of money
- 7:17Speaker 1: you've gotten for a ig shout out on the story. Yeah,
- 7:19Speaker 1: I just towist five hundred, So five hundred bucks. For
- 7:22Speaker 1: people who don't know, five hundred dollars is if a
- 7:26Speaker 1: million streams is four bands five hundred dollars, my math
- 7:32Speaker 1: might be fucked up here. Five hundred bucks is is
- 7:38Speaker 1: that one hundred thousand streams? I don't know about this thing,
- 7:43Speaker 1: but feel me like you got to do like a
- 7:45Speaker 1: serious chunk of streams to make five hundred money, because
- 7:48Speaker 1: I know when day may like like three g's just
- 7:51Speaker 1: like on some back, I'm like, damn, you have to
- 7:53Speaker 1: do it. By everybody coming to meeting, Well, you would
- 7:55Speaker 1: have to do almost a million streams on a record
- 7:57Speaker 1: to get that, to get that money, And that was
- 7:59Speaker 1: what people. It's really a matter of using the music,
- 8:03Speaker 1: using the catalog to open up all this other revenue.
- 8:05Speaker 1: At first, I started like at two fifty and then
- 8:08Speaker 1: I went up to like five and then obviously using
- 8:11Speaker 1: the wrap money, using all of that to just launch
- 8:14Speaker 1: other businesses. Like we were just talking you breed dogs,
- 8:16Speaker 1: about the dog, I did a breathing yesterday and today,
- 8:20Speaker 1: h I got puppies. I be doing dog shows. They
- 8:23Speaker 1: pay me to do dog shows. I host, judge all
- 8:26Speaker 1: types of shit. But that come from being a rapper.
- 8:29Speaker 1: How long did have you been doing the dog the
- 8:31Speaker 1: dog breeding. I think I got my first dog that
- 8:35Speaker 1: I started doing the breathing with probably like just maybe
- 8:38Speaker 1: five years ago. Serious money, man, serious money, Like it's
- 8:43Speaker 1: a lot of responsibility. Yeah, I had, like I had
- 8:46Speaker 1: a whole kennel. I built the whole kennle. I spent
- 8:49Speaker 1: like two fifty like the house the backyard, and I
- 8:54Speaker 1: built there like like a house in the backyard, and
- 8:59Speaker 1: that had like sloughs and eat inside of the house
- 9:03Speaker 1: with the drains where they pissing ship and go down
- 9:05Speaker 1: to the sewerd and wash out marble floor ac unit.
- 9:10Speaker 1: How water heat dogs are living better than some dudes
- 9:13Speaker 1: for sure, living better than a lot of people. Yeah.
- 9:15Speaker 1: So I mean because I know it's a lot of
- 9:17Speaker 1: money involved, so you got to take good care of him. Yeah. No,
- 9:19Speaker 1: with the dog thing, it's like like you said, you
- 9:21Speaker 1: got to take good care of him. It's a messy
- 9:23Speaker 1: it's a messy thing. You got to make sure, you know.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Like I'll be trying to convince my wife. I'm like, babe,
- 9:27Speaker 1: like you know, because we got the plug. It's the
- 9:30Speaker 1: main objective though, it's the longevity We're gonna get this money.
- 9:33Speaker 1: You will have to clean some dogs. Ship. I might
- 9:34Speaker 1: have to drink off a dog, you know, every once
- 9:36Speaker 1: in a while. But when you stud your dogs, do
- 9:38Speaker 1: you manually? I've never done it. You have to ask
- 9:41Speaker 1: that question. Happens at the veat. That happens, so you
- 9:43Speaker 1: take it to the vet. So my boy they do it,
- 9:46Speaker 1: does it himself, and he says it's better than the VAT.
- 9:50Speaker 1: I don't know how they do it. They take the
- 9:52Speaker 1: female and they take the male. The male smells there.
- 9:55Speaker 1: They do it right there and then they do it
- 9:57Speaker 1: like that. I've never done it. I never will do it. Yeah,
- 10:00Speaker 1: because I mean, I guess, like whatever downside to like
- 10:03Speaker 1: going to the vat, Like, to me, the real downside
- 10:05Speaker 1: you just don't want to pay the money. Well, the
- 10:06Speaker 1: real downside is jerking off your dog, Yeah too, but
- 10:09Speaker 1: I just feel like, you know, it's always cutting corners
- 10:12Speaker 1: with this shit, so it's like, right cool, instead of
- 10:14Speaker 1: me paying the vet to do it and then they
- 10:17Speaker 1: I've also seen people at home they take the seamen
- 10:19Speaker 1: and put it in the girl too. I've seen them,
- 10:21Speaker 1: man I didn't win, swear and they put the dog
- 10:23Speaker 1: to sleep in front who through the surgery in front
- 10:25Speaker 1: of everything? Wit stop shot? So what kind of dogs
- 10:28Speaker 1: are you doing? English? English bull dogs? Now, I've had
- 10:31Speaker 1: two English bull dogs. My first English bulldogs really didn't
- 10:34Speaker 1: have any health problems. My second one day, but I
- 10:36Speaker 1: always would hear you know, I got my bulldogs like that.
- 10:40Speaker 1: They always have health issues. They exotic, so that's why
- 10:44Speaker 1: you can't even breathe them like normally. Also, yeah, they
- 10:47Speaker 1: also can't fuck like that can't swim. They can't. They
- 10:49Speaker 1: can't fuck like listen, I've thrown my English bulldog into
- 10:52Speaker 1: a pool. You swam. But with that being said, probably
- 10:54Speaker 1: not the best idea, yeah, because they get tired, they
- 10:56Speaker 1: have breathing problems, they have small trachyas. Sometimes they can't
- 11:01Speaker 1: eat like bigger food. Gotta make the food soft and
- 11:04Speaker 1: slobber a lot. Yeah, Well mine don't really slabber like mine. Listen,
- 11:07Speaker 1: I let him out running back in the case. They
- 11:10Speaker 1: they they're good. I used to take my dog to
- 11:12Speaker 1: the parliamentute heat too long. Yeah no, I have man
- 11:14Speaker 1: rest in peace to my guy already gold. Yeah that's
- 11:16Speaker 1: happened to my dog. But yeah, no, they they're very
- 11:19Speaker 1: they're they're short of breath. That's I had one that
- 11:23Speaker 1: was like I ain't never had one like him before.
- 11:26Speaker 1: This guy he's chasing the basketball, jumping in the air.
- 11:30Speaker 1: He was. That's how my dog was. He was crazy,
- 11:32Speaker 1: like I've never had an English woodog like him before.
- 11:34Speaker 1: He was. He was different. What other like, uh, business ventures?
- 11:39Speaker 1: Do you you know? You got your your your your
- 11:42Speaker 1: emerged merch. I had a clothing I mean salon, but
- 11:47Speaker 1: I ended up giving to my godmother because due to COVID,
- 11:50Speaker 1: like people wasn't trying to come in and people weren't
- 11:53Speaker 1: trying to work or whatever. So but I'm launched in again,
- 11:57Speaker 1: but just online. Same thing. I had to clothing store,
- 12:00Speaker 1: same thing happened. So I'm just launching everything online. I

- 12:07Speaker 1: ten females for like music video shit artists that want
- 12:12Speaker 1: females and videos. And that came about because it was
- 12:14Speaker 1: a lot of big rappers that used to come in
- 12:16Speaker 1: town and called me like, hey man, some girls girls. Yeah,
- 12:20Speaker 1: I'm like shit, I might as well just start doing
- 12:23Speaker 1: like this. So put like ten females together, photo shoots, calendars,
- 12:27Speaker 1: they do fashion shows, video shoots. Everything that's good money. Hey,
- 12:31Speaker 1: that's real shit, because that's the first thing, especially here

- 15:47Speaker 1: reality show. But then he manages girls. Tiger manages girls too,

- 15:58Speaker 1: have like a girl signed and to his agency and
- 16:03Speaker 1: then he promotes them and then he gets a piece
- 16:06Speaker 1: of their only fans. Adam twenty two is doing the

- 16:37Speaker 1: get them all on only fans and just get your percentage.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Is only fans still popping out? I thought that shit
- 16:41Speaker 1: was like it was supposed to go away, but they
- 16:44Speaker 1: realized that if they did, if they got rid of
- 16:47Speaker 1: the adult content, that their business would be over. And
- 16:50Speaker 1: so it's still lit. Yeah, but they're not paying like
- 16:53Speaker 1: they used to. Like take that. I don't think they
- 16:55Speaker 1: think they take longer to pay out. Yeah that I
- 16:58Speaker 1: don't know. But at the end of the day, and
- 17:00Speaker 1: hear about it here and there, I was gonna doing
- 17:02Speaker 1: a long time ago. Not me on there fucking or nothing,
- 17:05Speaker 1: but just like showing my lifestyle like just so much
- 17:08Speaker 1: it had in my phone where they was like, oh,
- 17:09Speaker 1: you got to get contracts from these girls and you
- 17:11Speaker 1: gotta have them sign off on this, and you can't
- 17:14Speaker 1: post that ship. Just like going out to the club.
- 17:16Speaker 1: Bitch is dancing, tworking, fighting, It might be a threesome
- 17:20Speaker 1: bitches or bitches might be fucking each other whatever. You
- 17:23Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You know what? You know what
- 17:25Speaker 1: I do? Uh DDG does who's a rapper. But he
- 17:29Speaker 1: also he started as a YouTuber, so d d G
- 17:32Speaker 1: on his only fans pretty much just a giveaway game.
- 17:36Speaker 1: So he'll be like trying to teach you how to
- 17:38Speaker 1: go viral on YouTube, like like Batman Kevo. Yeah exactly,
- 17:42Speaker 1: shout out to him, similar to that. Yeah, they pretty
- 17:45Speaker 1: much like you just go on there and like giving
- 17:48Speaker 1: out gaming. Yeah, I feel you got a lot of
- 17:50Speaker 1: game to give out, Yeah for sure, but you could
- 17:52Speaker 1: sell it, yeah, sellers. You got to know how to
- 17:55Speaker 1: market it. You just gotta know how to market it.
- 17:57Speaker 1: I mean marketed with some hosts to you know what
- 17:58Speaker 1: I mean, figure it out. You got ten chicks. They're
- 18:02Speaker 1: called the Filthy Models. That's teen Filthy ten Filthy team,
- 18:05Speaker 1: Filthy Team Filthy. I like that. What was the name
- 18:09Speaker 1: of the Do you remember the team of models that
- 18:12Speaker 1: were based in Miami in the early twenty tens that
- 18:18Speaker 1: were lit as fun Are you talking about something. Angels,
- 18:21Speaker 1: tazzs angels, tazzas angels. That was what happened to that ship.
- 18:27Speaker 1: What happened to Taz. Did anybody ever see him? Yeah?
- 18:31Speaker 1: I think so. I thought he was like incognito. I
- 18:34Speaker 1: don't know, but I just remember everybody was all these
- 18:36Speaker 1: like random ass chicks were moving about like the same thing,
- 18:39Speaker 1: like somebody just had some females like model. Prior to
- 18:42Speaker 1: only fans, imagine Tazz's angels be running it up on
- 18:45Speaker 1: the internet. My sure goodness, he'd have been killing it. Man.
- 18:48Speaker 1: That was way before. Only fans who got on the app.
- 18:51Speaker 1: You got ice wear Vessel on the project SETI Hendrix
- 18:55Speaker 1: SETI Hendrix af and pays my artist tutor bands of
- 18:59Speaker 1: Skinny t Rich the Kid dear my hit. I got
- 19:07Speaker 1: to look and see do you pay for features at
- 19:10Speaker 1: this point? No, it's all of that's. I feel like
- 19:14Speaker 1: if someone that I feel like that would be the case.
- 19:17Speaker 1: There's certain artists that like, I feel like it's got
- 19:19Speaker 1: to be a respect thing. Yeah, for sure. For sure.
- 19:22Speaker 1: I have before in the back in the day when
- 19:24Speaker 1: I didn't just trying to rap and hey man, I
- 19:26Speaker 1: want to hear you on my song type shit and
- 19:29Speaker 1: not knowing who you are, you not knowing who I
- 19:31Speaker 1: am type shit. But you know that comes to say
- 19:33Speaker 1: like that's being biased because you know niggas buy features
- 19:35Speaker 1: for me all day. That's true. So yeah, I think
- 19:38Speaker 1: it just also depends. Like if you got a deal
- 19:40Speaker 1: on a Drake feature, you be like, yo, it's something different,
- 19:45Speaker 1: But at this point certain features worth paying for. Yeah,
- 19:49Speaker 1: they end up being relationships later on and the features
- 19:53Speaker 1: end up being you know, triple double whatever type shit.
- 19:57Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So you it just all
- 20:00Speaker 1: depends on how the ship, how it was handled. That's
- 20:03Speaker 1: some real ship. Man, Who are you like right now
- 20:05Speaker 1: just on some fan ship, like outside of your crew,
- 20:08Speaker 1: your label? What is the music you're listening to that
- 20:10Speaker 1: you enjoy? I really just only listened to like all
- 20:14Speaker 1: my artists are so many of them, you feel me?
- 20:16Speaker 1: So we always uh critique and everything. I've been trying
- 20:19Speaker 1: to like drop something every month from the label, like
- 20:23Speaker 1: on some real master Peat type shit, like like a
- 20:25Speaker 1: tape every week running it up. Yeah like that. So
- 20:28Speaker 1: that's how what's this April March? It's about to be April, yeah,
- 20:32Speaker 1: so we already said for April we're working on May
- 20:35Speaker 1: now in June. So but other than that, like I listened, uh,
- 20:42Speaker 1: I've been listening to I was. I was real big
- 20:44Speaker 1: on baby Money out of Detroit before you got de
- 20:47Speaker 1: Troy is going crazy man, baby money hard. You know,
- 20:51Speaker 1: I fuck with the whole Detroit sound right, Yeah, I
- 20:54Speaker 1: feel like yeah, we always talk about it on the show,
- 20:55Speaker 1: like how Detroit and the Bay has like a real
- 20:59Speaker 1: connections honestly obviously dope game wise, you know all of that.
- 21:02Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, You know, I just I
- 21:03Speaker 1: love the culture. You know what I'm saying. I love
- 21:05Speaker 1: the food, the strip clubs, the jury, the good money hustle.
- 21:09Speaker 1: You feel me all that ship. You know, I really
- 21:11Speaker 1: be out there so I can relate to that ship
- 21:14Speaker 1: Detroit to vibe give don't get it twisted, don't twisted.
- 21:20Speaker 1: So yeah, we gotta go to the Triple Change immediately.
- 21:24Speaker 1: We gotta go to Detroit soon, and we're gonna be wherever.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Wherever the ship's popping off at is where we're gonna
- 21:31Speaker 1: be at because we gotta go shoot with like three
- 21:33Speaker 1: or four artists out there, like go see there where
- 21:35Speaker 1: they grew up and ships. So we're gonna be in
- 21:36Speaker 1: the in the thick of it. We was in. I
- 21:38Speaker 1: was like stuck out there for like a week in
- 21:40Speaker 1: the snow. I couldn't leave, like no flights, like the
- 21:43Speaker 1: snows like oh wow, like blocking the doors. What area
- 21:46Speaker 1: of the bay are you from? Oakland Seminary East Oakland? Yeah,
- 21:49Speaker 1: we were in. We were shooting some ship in Balletjole.
- 21:53Speaker 1: I won't say with who, but uh, it was hot. Man.
- 21:56Speaker 1: You won't say with who. No, I'm wonta say with
- 21:58Speaker 1: with with which are just because it didn't work out.
- 22:01Speaker 1: But we pulled up in the in the Crest right
- 22:05Speaker 1: off the freeway SLB. No idea you said the Crest
- 22:10Speaker 1: ship was hot. Let's just say sh it was hot.
- 22:11Speaker 1: I mean the Bay hot period, just like Detroit, like Balao, Richmond,
- 22:15Speaker 1: San Francisco, Oakland, all that ship turned up. Yeah Bay
- 22:19Speaker 1: right now. I feel like the Bay right now is
- 22:21Speaker 1: kind of like nationally got a really bad rap because
- 22:25Speaker 1: when we see a lot of the smash and grab ship,
- 22:28Speaker 1: when we see a lot of the you know, homeless
- 22:31Speaker 1: fools going up into the Walgreens and just filling their
- 22:33Speaker 1: bag with ship and walking, it's all because you know,
- 22:36Speaker 1: in San Francisco, Like I'll go there once a month,
- 22:38Speaker 1: you know for Empire ship and the Walgreens like in
- 22:42Speaker 1: the city and the CBS is are closed them. Ships
- 22:45Speaker 1: is just but I don't think it was like a
- 22:48Speaker 1: bad rap, Like I feel like, well no, because I
- 22:51Speaker 1: think in the city of San Francisco they got that
- 22:55Speaker 1: law that they can't stop you and the cops will
- 22:58Speaker 1: prosecute you or arrest you you if you shop lift
- 23:01Speaker 1: under one thousand dollars. So that's why. So all the
- 23:05Speaker 1: petty staff ship, so you'll see all these dudes going
- 23:08Speaker 1: in on their bikes just fucking rolling up in the
- 23:09Speaker 1: fucking CBS did like a smash and grab out here
- 23:12Speaker 1: for like they did at Beverly Hills five million or
- 23:14Speaker 1: some shit. Yeah, that ship was crazy. Did you see
- 23:17Speaker 1: the video? I just heard about it. Oh the videos crazy,
- 23:20Speaker 1: Like yeah, I'm like, damn, he's doing that ship everywhere.
- 23:22Speaker 1: I was at the smash and grab ships everywhere. Was
- 23:24Speaker 1: that a jeweler in Vegas and they told me that
- 23:27Speaker 1: they just came in there and did that ship there too.
- 23:29Speaker 1: That's where it kind of sucks, like if you're in California,
- 23:32Speaker 1: like because you can't really like you know, some people
- 23:35Speaker 1: pull some ship like that in Florida, they getting smoked
- 23:37Speaker 1: by the owner. In California, you probably if you shoot
- 23:40Speaker 1: the guy, you're probably gonna go to jail before he
- 23:43Speaker 1: goes to It's crazy, like that's just the gun license ship,
- 23:47Speaker 1: the gun loass. And I think it's gonna I think
- 23:49Speaker 1: it's gonna chill out man, in Cali because I feel
- 23:52Speaker 1: like people are starting to realize. I think they was
- 23:55Speaker 1: doing all that shit because like the like they was protesting, right,
- 24:00Speaker 1: m hm, it was just protesting for some somebody somebody
- 24:03Speaker 1: got killed or something. Well there was the George Floyd
- 24:05Speaker 1: protest in June, or they were doing all that shit.
- 24:07Speaker 1: Could of that too. Yeah, it's been crazy, man. Cali's
- 24:10Speaker 1: been a crazy place the last couple of years. And
- 24:13Speaker 1: then Yo, So you know the one thing about the
- 24:16Speaker 1: Bay too that everyone is that's synonymous with the Bay, right,
- 24:19Speaker 1: it's bipping. Bipping is kind of like there's you'll go
- 24:23Speaker 1: to the Bay and there's people who just leave all
- 24:25Speaker 1: their windows down. Not even when you leave the window down,
- 24:28Speaker 1: you know, like don't come through the window. But I'm
- 24:30Speaker 1: saying they'll leave the windows down because they're like I'd
- 24:33Speaker 1: rather you just come into my car and see there's
- 24:35Speaker 1: nothing in here. Then you break my fucking window and
- 24:37Speaker 1: I have to replace it. Yeah, okay, cool. Yeah it
- 24:41Speaker 1: actually happened to me, not to meet personally, but rock
- 24:44Speaker 1: Nation had came to Oakland. They were trying to sign
- 24:48Speaker 1: me and the guy had I had wanted to get
- 24:51Speaker 1: something to eat and I told him like be cool
- 24:54Speaker 1: like and they went up the street when got something
- 24:57Speaker 1: to eat and like when they they walked in the store,
- 25:00Speaker 1: they hit the ship. It's crazy, crazy like but a
- 25:04Speaker 1: lot of rappers though, like they come out there for Empire,
- 25:06Speaker 1: they always get their ship hit, like a lot of
- 25:08Speaker 1: rappers and they jury took out there and all type
- 25:11Speaker 1: of ship. I think it's very easy to spot a
- 25:14Speaker 1: rental car. I mean if you're in that profession. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 25:19Speaker 1: if you're in that profession. If you are, you know
- 25:22Speaker 1: what a rental is just crazy because we we were
- 25:25Speaker 1: just driving the other day with downtown Oakland were like,
- 25:28Speaker 1: that's the Bippers right there and they's driving around in
- 25:30Speaker 1: the cars just doing the circles. You could just you
- 25:32Speaker 1: could just know that you know what they're doing. Yeah,
- 25:36Speaker 1: it's pretty crazy, like was it? Because you know I
- 25:38Speaker 1: feel like bipping in the bay is kind of like
- 25:40Speaker 1: you know, niggas normal money off that it's just normal.
- 25:43Speaker 1: I feel like it's kind of like when we think
- 25:45Speaker 1: of like people people like people get money in the streets.
- 25:48Speaker 1: That's rich off that. That's what I'm saying, like crazy,
- 25:51Speaker 1: like motherfuckersn't called me with all type of ship before,
- 25:54Speaker 1: and I'd be like, a motherfucker left this in the
- 25:55Speaker 1: car like who? It's almost like opening a fortune cookie,
- 25:59Speaker 1: like who, you never know what you're going to get
- 26:01Speaker 1: ship in their car? Like that's crazy. I would never
- 26:03Speaker 1: leave this shit without saying, obviously, what's the craziest thing
- 26:05Speaker 1: you've heard? Someone getting out of someone's car? That's like,
- 26:08Speaker 1: what the fuck? Someone left that two hundred thousand like
- 26:13Speaker 1: faux five, watches, purses, all type of shit, like can
- 26:18Speaker 1: you imagine leaving? I was like, damn, who the fuck
- 26:20Speaker 1: is this? Like is this like owner or something? Someone
- 26:22Speaker 1: left two hundred k in their car one thousand? I
- 26:24Speaker 1: know some rappers from Prey and got ribbed too. And
- 26:26Speaker 1: when I rib got bipped too for the jury, I
- 26:30Speaker 1: got hit in Burbank. Someone followed me from the bank.
- 26:34Speaker 1: I stopped at a UPS to get something notarized, and
- 26:39Speaker 1: I had fifteen bands under my seat cash and they
- 26:42Speaker 1: took that ship. I was sick. Waitit wait they bipped
- 26:46Speaker 1: the car. Yeah, but I don't understand why people leave
- 26:50Speaker 1: shit like that in car. Well, bro, imagine I'm in Burbank.
- 26:53Speaker 1: It don't matter. I'm keeping my shit on. So this
- 26:55Speaker 1: is where I'm at. There's the UPS store. I park
- 26:58Speaker 1: like right there, right, I'm in and out. You thought
- 27:02Speaker 1: she was in it. They was in and out. I
- 27:07Speaker 1: get on my true detective ship. I figure out that
- 27:10Speaker 1: they followed me from the Bank of America. So before
- 27:13Speaker 1: I went to Bank of America, or after I went
- 27:16Speaker 1: to Bank of America, I got gas, so I fucking
- 27:19Speaker 1: paid the owner of the gas station to give me
- 27:21Speaker 1: the footage to see the car that pulled in behind
- 27:23Speaker 1: me and waited and followed me out. So I had
- 27:25Speaker 1: like a steal of the kind of car. I fucking
- 27:28Speaker 1: found their trash they threw away. They threw away McDonald's.
- 27:33Speaker 1: I tried to get the plate number, but I could
- 27:35Speaker 1: it was too blurry. Bro, I was all my ship
- 27:37Speaker 1: though I sent. I had a homie in Chattanooga who
- 27:40Speaker 1: works at a CSI thing. I sent him to McDonald's
- 27:42Speaker 1: trash from the fingerprint. I'm like, bro, because I'm thinking,
- 27:46Speaker 1: like I'm gonna get this money back. I'm not gonna
- 27:48Speaker 1: deal with the cops because they ain't gonna do shit.
- 27:50Speaker 1: So I'm like, don't let me find out who these
- 27:51Speaker 1: people are. It's bad for them, you know what I'm saying.
- 27:54Speaker 1: And I just I was, man, I almost had these motherfuckers. Bro.
- 27:59Speaker 1: I was so, oh, you ain't supposed to be Yeah,
- 28:02Speaker 1: never again. But I think though, if they followed you
- 28:04Speaker 1: from did all that, then they probably was just on
- 28:06Speaker 1: trying to bip you know what happened, That's what I'm saying.
- 28:09Speaker 1: So that's a whole lot so once I couldn't figure
- 28:12Speaker 1: it out. The cops they said that a lady followed
- 28:16Speaker 1: me out of the bank. A lady was like she
- 28:18Speaker 1: was like she kept like resetting herself on the line,
- 28:20Speaker 1: because you remember during COVID the bank lines are crazy.
- 28:24Speaker 1: So the late there was a girl in the bank
- 28:27Speaker 1: was just watching to see who was walking out with money,
- 28:31Speaker 1: and then she followed me out. They got in the
- 28:33Speaker 1: car and then followed me out. I didn't even really
- 28:37Speaker 1: go to the line you call like order money and shit,
- 28:40Speaker 1: like that yeah. Well, really what happened was I went
- 28:43Speaker 1: there to get to open a business account, and I
- 28:46Speaker 1: brought the money to open the account. We're supposed to
- 28:48Speaker 1: open an account for a publishing company. But my writer,
- 28:52Speaker 1: who I was opening with, oh the bank money. So
- 28:55Speaker 1: they're like, if he's going to be on the account,
- 28:57Speaker 1: we can't give you the account. If I pull up
- 28:59Speaker 1: with fifteen banks and I'm like, well, shit, I got
- 29:04Speaker 1: all this money on me. Can I just deposit this
- 29:08Speaker 1: into my account? She's like yeah, but you just gotta
- 29:09Speaker 1: wait in the line. And I was like, man, fuck
- 29:11Speaker 1: all this. Man, I like, I ain't waiting this fucking line.
- 29:14Speaker 1: I fucking never again did that before too, but I'm
- 29:16Speaker 1: kind of like cool with the people now, so never again. Man.

- 31:32Speaker 1: with a show to shout out to blue Choo. Let's
- 31:34Speaker 1: get back to the interview. What else I mean? Obviously,
- 31:36Speaker 1: you know, with you and the label, like having ten
- 31:39Speaker 1: or twelve artists, a lot of people to look over
- 31:41Speaker 1: a lot of people's lives, a lot of careers. That's
- 31:46Speaker 1: why I've been kind of like trying to fall back
- 31:47Speaker 1: from me doing the music so I could like folcus
- 31:49Speaker 1: on a lot of responsibility, a lot of bandwidth. Sure,
- 31:53Speaker 1: how are you dealing with all that? Man? I ain't
- 31:56Speaker 1: gonna It's been easy. You know. We just had f
- 32:00Speaker 1: D weekend in Vegas. I have run out this big
- 32:02Speaker 1: old mansion or whatever. It's like twenty one rooms in it.
- 32:06Speaker 1: We got a lot of work done. A lot of
- 32:08Speaker 1: artists came, producers, engineers, shot a lot of videos. It's
- 32:14Speaker 1: been doing different little things like that to where I
- 32:16Speaker 1: could like sit down and really be hands on with
- 32:18Speaker 1: everything and you know, and explain how this should worked.
- 32:21Speaker 1: But it's really been easy to keep it real. It
- 32:24Speaker 1: ain't been too hard, like probably just like one artist
- 32:27Speaker 1: here and there. So yeah, no, I know, I just
- 32:28Speaker 1: know because you know, I work with artists, and I
- 32:30Speaker 1: know it could be a lot. Yeah, it can be.
- 32:32Speaker 1: It can't be. But you know me, like, I've been
- 32:35Speaker 1: doing this shit for so long, so I know how
- 32:37Speaker 1: to like you know what I'm saying, like, and you're
- 32:39Speaker 1: not doing it by yourself. You got you got a team,
- 32:40Speaker 1: I'm sure, me and Chelsea. Yeah, shout out to Chelsea.
- 32:43Speaker 1: Me and Chelsea that's who you know who who helped
- 32:46Speaker 1: me with everything, and also my caraman Seem Colux. That's dope. Yeah,
- 32:51Speaker 1: they just did shout to Empire. The documentary that they
- 32:54Speaker 1: did about you was it last year? It came out
- 32:56Speaker 1: last year. Philip Beasley album. Yeah, yeah, Yeah, that was
- 33:00Speaker 1: dope to kind of just see like kind of behind
- 33:02Speaker 1: the scenes, like different side of You. It was a
- 33:04Speaker 1: lot more that we didn't use. I think we're gonna
- 33:06Speaker 1: do another one, but yeah, I just did that. Like
- 33:10Speaker 1: I was kind of like transition. I was really trying
- 33:12Speaker 1: to fall back on doing the music myself because I
- 33:14Speaker 1: want to be able to give my artists in the
- 33:16Speaker 1: label hundred percent. How many albums do you have in
- 33:21Speaker 1: your catalog that are on Spotify right now? We lost count, Like,
- 33:27Speaker 1: give me like a over one hundred, over one hundred.
- 33:30Speaker 1: I think I dropped twelve tapes in like one year
- 33:32Speaker 1: to see if I could do it, and those are
- 33:34Speaker 1: all on the DSPs. Jesus man, those twelve that came up,
- 33:38Speaker 1: that was all on Empire. So I've been putting on
- 33:42Speaker 1: music like oh wait, so when you have that much catalog,
- 33:45Speaker 1: because you know, I always try to tell artists if
- 33:47Speaker 1: you're gonna stay independent, Like a lot of time, artists
- 33:51Speaker 1: overthink shit, yeah they never put music out, or they
- 33:54Speaker 1: overthinking and they sit on their hands too long. It's
- 33:56Speaker 1: like to me, I'm like, yo, run it up, because
- 33:57Speaker 1: that's your residual income. What has been your biggest check
- 34:00Speaker 1: off of your catalog in a month you've done off
- 34:03Speaker 1: of streams? If you don't mind, I don't want to
- 34:04Speaker 1: be in your pots. Seventy five thousand. That's great, man,
- 34:07Speaker 1: that's amazing. Seventy five thousand. And it came. I remember
- 34:10Speaker 1: I first got my first five g's and then because
- 34:16Speaker 1: I used to just put out just mixtapes, I used
- 34:19Speaker 1: to just run my mixtapes through Empire. Before I was
- 34:21Speaker 1: that Empire, I was dealing with urban life at right back,
- 34:24Speaker 1: and I uhould just be twenty thirty fifty and then
- 34:31Speaker 1: uh and then god, he starts seeing the numbers. It
- 34:35Speaker 1: was like, hey, we need to do an album. This
- 34:37Speaker 1: before I even did this is the first album I
- 34:40Speaker 1: deal with Empires in twenty sixteen. Real Niggas back in style.
- 34:43Speaker 1: So it's like, hey, we need to do a single
- 34:45Speaker 1: and then and then based the single round the album.
- 34:48Speaker 1: This is before I did the album, like we need to,
- 34:52Speaker 1: we need to, we need to get it going. So
- 34:53Speaker 1: I made that single make a Living with Sue, and
- 34:56Speaker 1: then I finally did the album. Other than that, I
- 34:58Speaker 1: was just running tape series some city money man's neighbor starts,
- 35:02Speaker 1: just running through them, doing millions of views on the
- 35:04Speaker 1: videos and all the type of shit. So shit. And
- 35:07Speaker 1: I think also back then, like YouTube paid a lot more. Yeah,
- 35:10Speaker 1: the YouTube money was great back then. Yeah, it was
- 35:12Speaker 1: a lot different because the other what was dope about
- 35:15Speaker 1: back then was if you had a distribution deal, they
- 35:18Speaker 1: didn't touch your YouTube money, so you were getting the
- 35:21Speaker 1: YouTube bag over here and then the iTunes over here.
- 35:24Speaker 1: But now it's all all combined into one, which I'm like, damn,
- 35:28Speaker 1: because that YouTube money was great yea, so it paid
- 35:32Speaker 1: way better than the streaming shit. So that's how that
- 35:34Speaker 1: used to work too. So I mean, you know, that's
- 35:38Speaker 1: why I'm able to be you know, like I get
- 35:40Speaker 1: paid twenty a show still to this day. You know
- 35:42Speaker 1: what I'm saying, we're turning ten to fifteen a verse.
- 35:45Speaker 1: That's big. So you go to a city post up.
- 35:48Speaker 1: I'm in the city. If you got your bag right,
- 35:50Speaker 1: come get the verse you No, I'll add this show
- 35:52Speaker 1: in KC. Not too long ago. Shit, before I even
- 35:56Speaker 1: got in the club, somebody was in the front waiting
- 35:58Speaker 1: to averse. So when I'm backing up, security like, hey,
- 36:02Speaker 1: this guy right here and talk to you, like, what's up.
- 36:04Speaker 1: I'm trying to do it verse, I'm like, okay, cool.
- 36:08Speaker 1: He asked me the price, gave me the number. He
- 36:10Speaker 1: didn't even go on the show. He left when you
- 36:12Speaker 1: go get the bag together, told me to pull up
- 36:13Speaker 1: on him when I was doing with the show. I
- 36:16Speaker 1: ended up pulling up on him after I was done
- 36:18Speaker 1: with the show. So manyo, I had a meet and
- 36:20Speaker 1: greet that day the show the verse and then missed
- 36:24Speaker 1: me doing the verse with him. Someone else came and
- 36:27Speaker 1: did a verse with him in a video all in
- 36:30Speaker 1: one night, so I didn't get back to the room
- 36:32Speaker 1: till like like six in the morning. Jesus just ran
- 36:35Speaker 1: it up. Not all that should like that be Boosy
- 36:39Speaker 1: be doing it ship like that, and you know just
- 36:40Speaker 1: on the road is running that ship up type of
- 36:42Speaker 1: ship yeah, Boozie is he don't get for sure, He's
- 36:46Speaker 1: a real rap hustler, fucking rap hustling for real. Who's
- 36:50Speaker 1: somebody who inspires you because you're such a boss you
- 36:53Speaker 1: do your entrepreneurial ship. But who's an artist or just
- 36:57Speaker 1: someone in the game that's inspired you a lot that
- 36:59Speaker 1: you get more from. I fuck with Meek Tough, I
- 37:02Speaker 1: fuck with little Baby Tough Ross. I fuck with anybody.
- 37:07Speaker 1: I fuck with anybody that's like, you know, aspiring. You
- 37:10Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. People I can relate to. People
- 37:12Speaker 1: I can see you know that been through something and
- 37:16Speaker 1: really you know, living a dream and and you know,
- 37:19Speaker 1: happy where they are in life type ship, you know
- 37:21Speaker 1: what I'm saying, taking care of their family, putting they
- 37:24Speaker 1: niggas in position, you know what I'm saying, and just
- 37:27Speaker 1: motivating them a person to go harder, you know what
- 37:29Speaker 1: I'm saying, And never being content with it. That's what
- 37:32Speaker 1: Like I don't even check my bank account. I will
- 37:35Speaker 1: not like, I will not look at it. Why because
- 37:37Speaker 1: I don't want to know what. I don't want to
- 37:39Speaker 1: know because I don't want to be content because if
- 37:41Speaker 1: you see it, you might be like I could chill out.
- 37:43Speaker 1: I don't want to do it, like you have someone
- 37:45Speaker 1: checking your bank account for you. I have accounting the
- 37:48Speaker 1: doing it now because and then every time something gets spent,
- 37:51Speaker 1: it sends me a text I got you, But I
- 37:54Speaker 1: don't never want to know what's in it to where
- 37:56Speaker 1: I just be like, okay, I got five mill I
- 37:58Speaker 1: can just relax. No, I don't never like I get
- 38:01Speaker 1: mad if something like I don't even check the receipt
- 38:03Speaker 1: like oh yeah, I got they give me a receipt,
- 38:05Speaker 1: I won't even look at it like they asked me
- 38:07Speaker 1: to receet. I say, no, that's funny. Yeah, Like I
- 38:10Speaker 1: don't want to be like, oh I could just sit
- 38:12Speaker 1: back and do nothing right. I just feel like at
- 38:15Speaker 1: that time being, if you do it, then somebody else
- 38:16Speaker 1: can come in and take that spot. Like I always
- 38:18Speaker 1: just want to work, keep working harder and harder and harder,
- 38:20Speaker 1: and never I figured out. I figured out, But I'm
- 38:24Speaker 1: not just I won't do it. Uh. You obviously went
- 38:28Speaker 1: through one of the more in my opinion, dope rap
- 38:31Speaker 1: beefs recently because you guys kept it on our own record,
- 38:34Speaker 1: are you and Masie? It was bothly. That was like
- 38:37Speaker 1: three years ago, two years ago. I don't know that's how,
- 38:40Speaker 1: but it was to me, it was like dope because
- 38:42Speaker 1: it reminded me of, like, you know, just some ship
- 38:44Speaker 1: that I grew up on, people keeping it up, putting
- 38:47Speaker 1: dope songs out. Yeah, because I feel like nowadays, man,
- 38:50Speaker 1: like we saw King Vaughan, you know that ship with Kwondo.
- 38:53Speaker 1: I don't think he had a rap beef with what
- 38:56Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It wasn't even like that's the
- 38:59Speaker 1: weirdest thing about out the Dirk and Young Boy thing.
- 39:02Speaker 1: I'm like, you guys aren't even from the same city.
- 39:03Speaker 1: I'm so confused. This is strictly some hip hop shit.
- 39:06Speaker 1: I think that shit was like over a bitch or something,
- 39:08Speaker 1: But I just thought it was dope. That Like, I
- 39:09Speaker 1: feel like you guys did that shit the right way
- 39:11Speaker 1: because you guys have mutual homies. You guys got mutual business,
- 39:14Speaker 1: and you guys had obviously a disagreement and it ended
- 39:17Speaker 1: up on record and it was what it was and
- 39:19Speaker 1: everyone moved on. Yeah for sure. You know me, I don't.
- 39:23Speaker 1: I don't hold no grudges. I ain't mad at nobody,
- 39:25Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like I've been doing my thing.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Fel'm continued doing my thing, you know, So I don't
- 39:31Speaker 1: wake up every day thinking about, you know, the past
- 39:34Speaker 1: or anything else. I'd be focused on the future. It's
- 39:36Speaker 1: a beautiful thing, man, when you like see some of
- 39:40Speaker 1: these younger artists who you might fuck with. I feel
- 39:46Speaker 1: like recently we've just seen so much bullshit going on
- 39:49Speaker 1: in terms of just people keeping one foot in, one
- 39:52Speaker 1: foot out on the rap shit. And you know, we
- 39:54Speaker 1: see people losing their freedom pou shisty, we see people
- 39:57Speaker 1: losing their life. We see a lot so much going on, Like, like,
- 40:00Speaker 1: what would be some advice you would give to some
- 40:03Speaker 1: of those younger artists who maybe haven't I tell my
- 40:07Speaker 1: artists all the time not to even make this record,
- 40:09Speaker 1: not to even fall into the negativity, and understand it's
- 40:12Speaker 1: come with the music game. Everybody not gonna like you.
- 40:15Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of people from your past
- 40:18Speaker 1: to remember or I remember he wasn't doing this. I
- 40:20Speaker 1: remember he didn't have this like hater type shit. You
- 40:22Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. So it comes with it. You
- 40:23Speaker 1: gotta have tough skin for it. And if you ain't
- 40:25Speaker 1: ready for hate, you ain't ready for success. But then
- 40:28Speaker 1: also you got to understand too when you when you
- 40:31Speaker 1: coming from the hood or the trenches, and you give
- 40:35Speaker 1: these kids money. I never had money before. And they
- 40:39Speaker 1: also had this streat mentality, Like it's like they feel
- 40:42Speaker 1: like they can't be touched and don't really care about
- 40:44Speaker 1: the certain things that they should be worried about until
- 40:47Speaker 1: later on, you know what I'm saying. So that's like
- 40:50Speaker 1: why I never choose to like pop ecstasy or appeals
- 40:54Speaker 1: and shit like that, because a lot of people from
- 40:56Speaker 1: my neighborhood used to get high and then they wake
- 40:58Speaker 1: up not knowing what they did. Ter on in the
- 41:01Speaker 1: interrogation room. Wow, you know what I'm saying, they'd be like,
- 41:04Speaker 1: what the fuck happened last night? So like, and I
- 41:07Speaker 1: knew a lot of people from my neighborhood lost their
- 41:09Speaker 1: mind like early, like like young dudes like twenty years old,
- 41:13Speaker 1: like smoking crack now because he donet pop the bad
- 41:16Speaker 1: ecstasy pill and fucked him off. And this was like
- 41:19Speaker 1: a fly nigga that used to hoop and get good
- 41:23Speaker 1: grades in school, you know what I'm saying. So I'm like, man,
- 41:25Speaker 1: I don't never want to play with myself like that,
- 41:27Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because I've seen how you know,
- 41:30Speaker 1: just like how they doing it right now, how they
- 41:31Speaker 1: pressing up the pills which they found the all type
- 41:33Speaker 1: shit like that people dying like this was back then,
- 41:36Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, This was the heype
- 41:37Speaker 1: movement days when Nigga's popping six exit pills losing their mind.
- 41:42Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, hell nah, Like you
- 41:44Speaker 1: never got down with that, shiit? No? I never. I
- 41:46Speaker 1: only think I ever did was smoke with you. Sip sirr?
- 41:48Speaker 1: That was it? Do you still say it? Nah? I've
- 41:51Speaker 1: been stopped alone time ago. Was that hard to stop?
- 41:53Speaker 1: Because I know some people say it's pretty tough to
- 41:55Speaker 1: get off? No, it wasn't hard. My whole thing I was.
- 41:59Speaker 1: I was amusing, I was getting too high. It wasn't
- 42:02Speaker 1: hard for when I kicked it. It was like I
- 42:04Speaker 1: damned her, like not paying attention when I would be
- 42:07Speaker 1: doing that. Damned there probably sip a brick in the day.
- 42:09Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, because I used to. When
- 42:11Speaker 1: I used to buy a pint. I used to have
- 42:13Speaker 1: like the twenty ounce cream sodas and I pour like
- 42:15Speaker 1: a four in there in each one of them, and
- 42:17Speaker 1: I done drunk like four of them, and I'm fucked off,
- 42:20Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, not even knowing. I shoot
- 42:22Speaker 1: a video. I actually I shot a video. Somebody came
- 42:24Speaker 1: in town paid me for a verse in the video.
- 42:26Speaker 1: I shot the video. I drunk one right here doing
- 42:29Speaker 1: this scene. One at this scene, one at this scene,
- 42:31Speaker 1: one of this scene. That's the whole brick. Yo. That's
- 42:34Speaker 1: crazy because I'm not even paying attention to what I'm
- 42:36Speaker 1: doing it. So it's so good. But you know they
- 42:38Speaker 1: say something that something that's that good, ain't that's too
- 42:41Speaker 1: good for you? So when they I woke up, you know,
- 42:48Speaker 1: I woke up fucked up one day and I was like, man,
- 42:51Speaker 1: if I make it, man, I'm done. And I just
- 42:53Speaker 1: been done ever since. Damn. Yeah that's good man. Yeah,
- 42:57Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, the lean thing is like I'll,
- 43:00Speaker 1: like you said, it's something that people really enjoy, but
- 43:02Speaker 1: it's also like it's like your body dependent on it,
- 43:06Speaker 1: and it's just like if you're drinking a good ass
- 43:09Speaker 1: soda and you just keep drinking that ship over and
- 43:12Speaker 1: over and it's gonna keep drinking it, but you're not
- 43:15Speaker 1: knowing that the sugar or whatever, the caffeine or whatever's
- 43:17Speaker 1: fucking you up. You don't even realize it until Yeah,
- 43:21Speaker 1: that's real ship. You talked about the rock Nation ship.
- 43:25Speaker 1: I remember hearing about that. I think I think you
- 43:27Speaker 1: told me about it before. What what made you initially
- 43:30Speaker 1: not want to sign shout out the rock Nation? Who's
- 43:35Speaker 1: trying to sign you? Earl damn okay? Fuck with dang
- 43:40Speaker 1: still to this day, and its not necessarily him is
- 43:43Speaker 1: the one who who wanted what they wanted, but he
- 43:48Speaker 1: was the one who brought the situation, you know, together.
- 43:52Speaker 1: But they just wanted to my past catalog and the
- 43:56Speaker 1: masters and it's a super now and that's what the
- 43:59Speaker 1: mind you just was right before COVID. So if I
- 44:01Speaker 1: would have did that, I was just been paying them
- 44:03Speaker 1: for nothing. So they wanted so they wanted to sign you,
- 44:08Speaker 1: and then all your catalog they want to come bring
- 44:10Speaker 1: it over, and that's fucking crazy. And it was just
- 44:15Speaker 1: saying like we're gonna build this and we're gonna tour
- 44:17Speaker 1: with this person and all that and all that, and
- 44:20Speaker 1: I was just like, I'm like, man, we can start
- 44:22Speaker 1: from here, Like if you want to start from new
- 44:25Speaker 1: music going for I can't do it back. Luckily I didn't,
- 44:29Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And shout out to like
- 44:31Speaker 1: I said, shout out to rock Nation for the opportunity.
- 44:33Speaker 1: But they do a lot of artists like that, and
- 44:34Speaker 1: they was naming off all the other artists that got
- 44:37Speaker 1: the same type of deals and this is and this. Yeah,
- 44:39Speaker 1: but that's not that's not a good deal, not at all.
- 44:43Speaker 1: And I don't know, especially not for independent artists that's
- 44:45Speaker 1: been living off music to where now I gotta wait
- 44:48Speaker 1: for y'all and I gotta get it's like, damn, y'all
- 44:50Speaker 1: don't have nothing to do with these albums. Yeah, why
- 44:53Speaker 1: would you add all that red tape right right right
- 44:57Speaker 1: after that, I mean right after that pandemic, So it
- 45:00Speaker 1: wouldn't it wouldn't have been no shows, no nothing. I
- 45:03Speaker 1: would have just been it would have been stuck because
- 45:06Speaker 1: you can't just drop when you want now. No, not
- 45:08Speaker 1: even that, Like the whole thing was they were going
- 45:10Speaker 1: to put me on tour. I'm supposed to be doing
- 45:13Speaker 1: this and doing that, but all that was shut down
- 45:15Speaker 1: to the pandemic. So I wouldn't even getting no money.
- 45:16Speaker 1: I should be giving you all money for free, thank god.
- 45:18Speaker 1: That Yeah, yeah, you would have just been Yeah, where's
- 45:21Speaker 1: the perks there? That's crazy? Yo, we got to stop

- 46:40Speaker 1: using that promo code bootleg keV. Let's get back to
- 46:43Speaker 1: the interview. Yeah, any artists, if you have catalog and
- 46:46Speaker 1: you try to sign a deal, and now it's different
- 46:48Speaker 1: if they just say we just want to distribute it,
- 46:50Speaker 1: you know, because that's a different situation. But if they're like, no,
- 46:53Speaker 1: bring bring your catalog over to our label, that I'd go,
- 46:58Speaker 1: go fuck yourself. The short to understand too. So how
- 47:01Speaker 1: I look at it as you know a lot of
- 47:02Speaker 1: people that complain about the artists putting out too much music.
- 47:05Speaker 1: I'm not signed to a record label, so why would
- 47:07Speaker 1: I not put out as much as you I can?
- 47:10Speaker 1: Because that's where I get paid from. So it's a
- 47:12Speaker 1: numbers game, man. Yeah, So if I'm getting paid whatever
- 47:16Speaker 1: I'm getting paid off each album, why would I not
- 47:18Speaker 1: keep dropping the numbers game? Like when you're on a major.
- 47:20Speaker 1: They want you to drop an album, then tour a year,
- 47:23Speaker 1: and then come back and dropped in because they putting
- 47:25Speaker 1: the money up before you and and everything else. Yeah,
- 47:30Speaker 1: they can tell you what song they don't want on here,
- 47:32Speaker 1: what picture they don't want. I done heard artists like, okay,
- 47:36Speaker 1: they want me to sign over here, but they wanted
- 47:37Speaker 1: me to take off my tattoos or cut my drade
- 47:40Speaker 1: like that. They want to control you because they putting
- 47:41Speaker 1: the money up, So they want you to look a
- 47:43Speaker 1: certain way, they want you to wrap a certain way.
- 47:45Speaker 1: This is what they feel will work. I feel like
- 47:48Speaker 1: artists nowadays are at least becoming more transparent and understanding
- 47:54Speaker 1: that they might be in shitty deals inventing that. You know,
- 47:57Speaker 1: like we've seen me, we've seen yg. We've seen a
- 47:59Speaker 1: lot of people be like, yo, I didn't get no
- 48:01Speaker 1: money off my music. Because what happens is you take
- 48:04Speaker 1: the advance, and that has to if you take if
- 48:07Speaker 1: you get a million, that's just an easy number to
- 48:09Speaker 1: work with. A million dollars on a major label, you're
- 48:13Speaker 1: probably only owning seven to twelve percent of your user
- 48:17Speaker 1: so much just to get that million back, because they go,
- 48:19Speaker 1: you got to make that ship back over ten times
- 48:21Speaker 1: before you recoup. It's like, bro, that's hard to do.
- 48:24Speaker 1: So that's where all the other things and endorsements and
- 48:26Speaker 1: everything else come in. That's what they're living off of
- 48:28Speaker 1: in the shows and shit. Yeah, but when that shit
- 48:30Speaker 1: drives up, that's where you would see these artists during
- 48:33Speaker 1: the pandemic like, man, fuck my label, I ain't see
- 48:35Speaker 1: no money since. And then they get back trapping again,
- 48:38Speaker 1: and then they get caught up. Nah. I think that's
- 48:42Speaker 1: really what COVID did, was it made y'all realize, yo,
- 48:44Speaker 1: know all these motherfuckers for the most part, you know,
- 48:47Speaker 1: and these are good guys that fuck with a lot
- 48:48Speaker 1: of them. But when you take that easy upfront check,
- 48:52Speaker 1: you're signing off on a lot of bullshit in that deal. Yeah,
- 48:56Speaker 1: I mean you got to make that. Fuck it, make
- 48:58Speaker 1: that given. Tell you a friend what they want back,
- 49:02Speaker 1: and and I don't feel bad. And if you're not
- 49:05Speaker 1: able to make that back, bro, I don't feel bad
- 49:07Speaker 1: because you signed the fucking deal like you, we're talking
- 49:10Speaker 1: grown ass men. You signed a contract like you either
- 49:14Speaker 1: you needed the money, you don't took an advance before
- 49:16Speaker 1: took advance. But it's different. I feel like it's it's
- 49:20Speaker 1: different splits. Yeah, it's different, but you can't sell your soul,
- 49:24Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it took an advance before,
- 49:25Speaker 1: but I made mine back I recouped, So yeah, that's
- 49:28Speaker 1: how it works. So now a lot of them take
- 49:30Speaker 1: the advance. Imagine if you get off. Imagine if you
- 49:33Speaker 1: only get eight percent, how hard it is to recoup that. Now,
- 49:36Speaker 1: if you do like a distro situation and you got
- 49:38Speaker 1: an eighty, twenty, sixty, forty, ninety ten, whatever, it's a
- 49:42Speaker 1: lot easier to recoup. But if you have eight percent
- 49:45Speaker 1: out of one hundred, that means ninety two pennies of
- 49:48Speaker 1: every dollar goes into the labor's pocket and only eight
- 49:52Speaker 1: cents And you don't get the eight That eight cents
- 49:55Speaker 1: goes towards your balance that you oh, that you oh
- 49:58Speaker 1: even go in your pocket. It does not go on
- 50:00Speaker 1: your pocket. You gotta fuck forever to pay that shit
- 50:03Speaker 1: up forever. You gotta be fucking the weekend or somebody,
- 50:07Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You gotta be drake like
- 50:09Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like it's like good luck,
- 50:11Speaker 1: you know, I don't think people understand like when you
- 50:13Speaker 1: look at you know i'd be looking at people's numbers
- 50:16Speaker 1: except be like, Okay, if he did twenty million streams
- 50:19Speaker 1: times twenty times four thousand, I mean shit, you know
- 50:23Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, I mean, that's cool money, you
- 50:25Speaker 1: know what I mean. But like you know, like how
- 50:29Speaker 1: are you? What's your overhead? What's your overhead? A lot
- 50:32Speaker 1: of these you gotta understand too. A lot of these
- 50:33Speaker 1: rappers like that's all they ever did was rap, so
- 50:39Speaker 1: they don't have many really other hustles or whatever. So
- 50:42Speaker 1: like if they get that money and fuck that money off,
- 50:44Speaker 1: it's over. And it happens more often than not, especially
- 50:48Speaker 1: your first deal. Most people's first deal is all bad.
- 50:51Speaker 1: Go buy chains, call, bring all the homies on the road,
- 50:56Speaker 1: all of all the drugs, all this shit. Man, you
- 50:59Speaker 1: are you pretty? Like you? Do you travel deeper? Like
- 51:03Speaker 1: did you move around with a lot of people or
- 51:07Speaker 1: like like home or are you talking about like out
- 51:09Speaker 1: of town? Let's say you out of town. Like for
- 51:12Speaker 1: my writer, it's like four rooms and five flights. That's
- 51:17Speaker 1: not bad. Yeah, that's not bad. I recently tried to
- 51:20Speaker 1: book an artist for a show or for a club,
- 51:23Speaker 1: and they wanted fifteen flights, and I was like, well,
- 51:27Speaker 1: this isn't gonna work. Guys. You know I've seen some
- 51:29Speaker 1: shit like that. I got booked for a show with
- 51:32Speaker 1: the artist before, and that niggashit was crazy. It was
- 51:36Speaker 1: like he wanted twenty five chicken wings, fifty lobster tails.
- 51:42Speaker 1: He wanted like some crazy shit. Didn't even eat none
- 51:45Speaker 1: of it. That's how it came and came there and
- 51:47Speaker 1: counted it like he came to the He came there
- 51:51Speaker 1: and counted this shit like I didn't book him. I
- 51:52Speaker 1: was on the show with him, but the guy was
- 51:54Speaker 1: telling me, like his writer, how crazy shit was. But
- 51:57Speaker 1: you know, if you the promoter, you agree to I
- 51:59Speaker 1: could say, hey, I won't five Latina women in the room,
- 52:01Speaker 1: but as naked rolling blunts for me, and I won't

- 52:09Speaker 1: if you agree to it, you gotta provide to provide it.
