- 0:10Speaker 1: in your world? Man? Good? Just been working, still focused? Yeah,
- 0:14Speaker 1: you feel like you're always working, bro? Yeah, yeah, trying
- 0:18Speaker 1: to get right. Do you feel like because I always
- 0:21Speaker 1: say this, man, I feel like Stockton is like kind
- 0:23Speaker 1: of like the hottest city in California in terms of
- 0:27Speaker 1: the hip hop scene and what's going on. And I
- 0:29Speaker 1: feel like it seems like like y'all finally kind of
- 0:32Speaker 1: getting some credit now. Do you feel that way? Yeah? Yeah,
- 0:35Speaker 1: for sure. There's definitely a lot of telling out there.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Everyone just starting to get hips. It's been like that
- 0:41Speaker 1: for a couple of years now. But yeah, it's dope
- 0:42Speaker 1: to see for sure. Yeah, I feel like you're kind
- 0:44Speaker 1: of when I think of Stockton, I think of you
- 0:46Speaker 1: and I think a Haiti baby like in terms of
- 0:48Speaker 1: like the last five years, Like you guys are kind
- 0:50Speaker 1: of like the two main dudes. That's fair to say. Yeah,
- 0:54Speaker 1: I think that's fair to say. For sure. What is
- 0:57Speaker 1: up playing? Look, I ain't trying to get into politics,
- 0:59Speaker 1: but it feels like there's just a lot of drama
- 1:00Speaker 1: in terms between the rappers out there, whether it's yourself
- 1:03Speaker 1: and the other guys, and you know, it just seems
- 1:05Speaker 1: like there's a lot of like not a lot of
- 1:09Speaker 1: people moving together out there. Yeah, definitely not. Is that
- 1:12Speaker 1: like this all politics driven? Yeah, definitely is just a
- 1:18Speaker 1: bunch of street shipping that that that you know, hinders
- 1:21Speaker 1: music for sure. I feel like LA that kind of
- 1:25Speaker 1: got in the way of l a kind of moving
- 1:29Speaker 1: because you know, there was a moment when LA was
- 1:31Speaker 1: kind of like cold, you know what I mean. I
- 1:33Speaker 1: feel like because a lot of the up and coming
- 1:34Speaker 1: artists out of LA that the politics, I guess, get
- 1:37Speaker 1: in the way of the music. Now. Stocked In is
- 1:39Speaker 1: a way different city. It's a very small place, so
- 1:43Speaker 1: it's definitely not the same dynamic because I'm sure when
- 1:47Speaker 1: shit happens it's stocked it it's it's very small. I've
- 1:49Speaker 1: been there, you know, small together. Yeah, it's a lot different, right,
- 1:54Speaker 1: But for you, like, do you think that there's any
- 1:58Speaker 1: like progress in the right direct or is it still
- 2:01Speaker 1: kind of like everyone's just kind of divided doing their
- 2:03Speaker 1: own thing. I mean, as of right now, people like
- 2:12Speaker 1: that ship though like like I feel that's what's driving
- 2:15Speaker 1: in like people like seeing that that beef and ship
- 2:18Speaker 1: and that drama and ship. Yeah, it's crazy because I
- 2:22Speaker 1: kind of feel like Stockton's kind of like the West
- 2:24Speaker 1: Coast like Jacksonville, kind of like Jacksonville's like rap scene
- 2:28Speaker 1: is like kind of driven by like the fucking beef ship,
- 2:30Speaker 1: and I feel the Stockton ship is kind of similar,
- 2:32Speaker 1: like it's just so much beef, and I feel like
- 2:34Speaker 1: it helps. It's not good for the human beings involved,
- 2:38Speaker 1: not that it helps with It helps with the with
- 2:40Speaker 1: the getting the streams up and numbers up, especially like
- 2:43Speaker 1: YouTube and stuff. It's like a given and take though,
- 2:46Speaker 1: because it's like if you lean into that ship, there's
- 2:48Speaker 1: like real life ramifications. Yeah yeah, for sure, we gotta
- 2:51Speaker 1: know what you signed up for. But yeah, that's that's
- 2:56Speaker 1: that's what people like right now. Do you feel like
- 2:58Speaker 1: you be leaning into that ship a little bit just
- 2:59Speaker 1: to kind to help the music or I mean I've
- 3:03Speaker 1: always been to type like whatever whatever be happening, I
- 3:06Speaker 1: just leave it out the music because I treat it
- 3:09Speaker 1: like two separate entities. You feel me like this is
- 3:12Speaker 1: really my job for like like business. You feel me
- 3:16Speaker 1: like I don't want to. It ain't it ain't. I
- 3:19Speaker 1: just I try to just do you like, look at
- 3:22Speaker 1: you professionally you feel me. Yeah. But and as far
- 3:24Speaker 1: as that, I'm just fun all that shit. F Yeah
- 3:28Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. I mean there's been a lot of
- 3:30Speaker 1: guys losing their life out there too, man, Like you know,
- 3:32Speaker 1: like the like the slow van dude obviously rest in peace.
- 3:35Speaker 1: But there's a lot of a lot of dudes, is there.
- 3:37Speaker 1: I feel like I've heard a few people losing their
- 3:39Speaker 1: life out there. They're like I just followed the Fizzler,
- 3:42Speaker 1: bro theler just be keeping me in Yeah, for sure.
- 3:47Speaker 1: For you, because you're kind of like one of the
- 3:50Speaker 1: pioneers out there, I would say that you're probably in
- 3:53Speaker 1: terms of like catalog and like you know, being able
- 3:56Speaker 1: to tour and do certain ship, you're probably the most
- 4:00Speaker 1: successful guy at a Stockton. Do you feel any pressure
- 4:02Speaker 1: or any responsibility kind of being like the national face
- 4:06Speaker 1: of a city like that? Uh? Yeah, A little bit
- 4:09Speaker 1: better save time. It's just I really just be so
- 4:12Speaker 1: like worried about myself. Like I don't really care what what, how,
- 4:17Speaker 1: what people expect or you feel me think of me.
- 4:19Speaker 1: It's just I'm just so focused and dialed in on
- 4:22Speaker 1: on myself and try to like better myself. So whether
- 4:25Speaker 1: people look at that like as a as a you know,
- 4:29Speaker 1: a good representation, it's just it is what it is.
- 4:33Speaker 1: You feel me naturally, When do you feel like you
- 4:35Speaker 1: kind of like figured out how to like properly turn
- 4:40Speaker 1: the rap shit into a business and like really monetize
- 4:43Speaker 1: your fan base. Uh? I started I started looking at
- 4:47Speaker 1: the analytics everything, like where where where certain fans of
- 4:49Speaker 1: listening to music from? Uh, like top cities? Like what
- 4:54Speaker 1: type of Like I'm really looking at what type of
- 4:56Speaker 1: songs are streaming the most? You feel me like like
- 4:59Speaker 1: certain raps song just do good on YouTube, but then
- 5:02Speaker 1: like like a song as for the females like singing melodizing,
- 5:06Speaker 1: that's that's doing. He'll get on like like Spotify or something.
- 5:09Speaker 1: And I'm looking at it and it's like cities that
- 5:11Speaker 1: I never expected. So like like where like right now
- 5:14Speaker 1: on my Spotify list? Last time I looked at it,
- 5:16Speaker 1: I think top five. I think it was like Melbourne, Australia, London.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Uh there was like three out of country cities. Oh yeah,
- 5:27Speaker 1: and it'd be like it'd be like for songs like
- 5:30Speaker 1: like the singing songs you feel me. That's so crazy
- 5:33Speaker 1: to think, like Australia is really far crazy. So when
- 5:38Speaker 1: you see some ship like that, or you're like, damn,
- 5:39Speaker 1: maybe we should try to go do some shows out
- 5:41Speaker 1: there or run some ads out there, try to you know,
- 5:44Speaker 1: like like how do you take that information and like
- 5:47Speaker 1: how do you apply it to like what you're doing. Uh, yeah,
- 5:51Speaker 1: we try to. We try to do like try to
- 5:53Speaker 1: try to have ads reached towards towards that way. We
- 5:57Speaker 1: we were actually speaking to somebody from out there, like
- 6:00Speaker 1: a promoter, trying to get some shows together. But uh,
- 6:03Speaker 1: that's on hold right now, trying to put that together,
- 6:06Speaker 1: try to have a show in Canada. And then and
- 6:09Speaker 1: they didn't even let me in, which was weird because
- 6:11Speaker 1: they let me in in uh Toronto and Montreal. Is
- 6:15Speaker 1: it because of your record? Yeah? But but they did
- 6:18Speaker 1: me so greasy this time, like they looked up everything,
- 6:20Speaker 1: like Dyven broke it even get in. They was bringing
- 6:24Speaker 1: up stuff from like when he was fourteen. Really this
- 6:26Speaker 1: is crazy? Was this Vancouver? Yeah? Vancouver? Damn? So like
- 6:30Speaker 1: you how does it work? You get to the border,
- 6:32Speaker 1: So yeah, we get over there, we go through the
- 6:34Speaker 1: little Uh I forgot what it's called. Uh, what's it called?
- 6:37Speaker 1: When you go we go to TJ customs. Customs. Yeah,
- 6:42Speaker 1: so we were in customs. They see me whatever. I guess.
- 6:47Speaker 1: I guess I kind of throw them off with the
- 6:48Speaker 1: face tattoos and shit. They looked me up. I guess
- 6:52Speaker 1: the seen I was a rapper. Then they look up
- 6:55Speaker 1: everything else that's on the internet, the little indictment shit
- 6:58Speaker 1: and just the ship that was on like blogs and
- 7:00Speaker 1: all that shit. So all that pop up day on
- 7:04Speaker 1: everything on my on my two suitcases. I got two
- 7:07Speaker 1: bandana's on it, just to identify it, right, and you know, yeah, yeah,
- 7:11Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying it. But but they happened
- 7:13Speaker 1: to be blue. So they asked him, why why is
- 7:15Speaker 1: it blue. I'm like, that's the that's the first thing
- 7:16Speaker 1: I see and I just put it on there. But
- 7:19Speaker 1: they have they bring me to like a little room
- 7:21Speaker 1: in the back. They like, we gotta ask you a
- 7:23Speaker 1: couple of questions. I'm like, all right, whatever, fuck it, bro.

- 7:44Speaker 1: two hours, I go back to the waiting room. They
- 7:47Speaker 1: had me doing that back and forth and then and
- 7:50Speaker 1: then the day was coming to an end. There was
- 7:52Speaker 1: nobody else coming in. There was like, uh, based on
- 7:56Speaker 1: the information you gave us, we still got to do
- 7:58Speaker 1: some more research, like more stuff come up. So I'm like, damn.
- 8:02Speaker 1: They're like, uh, it might be a it might be
- 8:06Speaker 1: a legal issue now because you're they're trying to say
- 8:10Speaker 1: I was an active crip and you give me just
- 8:11Speaker 1: a little shit like that. Now now it's a legal issue.
- 8:14Speaker 1: And I'm like a legal issue, like like what are
- 8:16Speaker 1: you talking about? Instantly called I ictically called Matt, who's
- 8:19Speaker 1: a lawyer, and yeah, the lawyer and my real lawyer,
- 8:22Speaker 1: uh Mark, So I call them. They get in contact
- 8:26Speaker 1: with them, trying to see what's up. Mark and Matt
- 8:30Speaker 1: get ahold of the U the uh was it the
- 8:33Speaker 1: embassy or something like that, trying to talk to them. Uh.
- 8:36Speaker 1: They're like, you're gonna have to spend the night in
- 8:38Speaker 1: uh in custody so we could do more homework on you.
- 8:42Speaker 1: What the fuck? Yeah, to try to get into a country. Yeah,
- 8:45Speaker 1: I was like, fuck that, I gotta go. They're like,
- 8:47Speaker 1: you can't leave. There's no there's unless you can find
- 8:49Speaker 1: a flight. There's like, we'll give you an exception. If
- 8:51Speaker 1: you can find a flight to the US right now,
- 8:53Speaker 1: we'll let you leave. But they were like, there isn't
- 8:55Speaker 1: any though, so you're gonna have to spend the night
- 8:56Speaker 1: and it could possibly become a legal issue because you're organized.
- 9:00Speaker 1: What they said, gang member that's coming into the country
- 9:03Speaker 1: or something like that. So I'm looking, I'm like, give
- 9:06Speaker 1: me five minutes, bro, I'll find a flight right now.
- 9:08Speaker 1: So we're looking. I'm on the three way with man
- 9:10Speaker 1: and the lawyer and we're just trying to find a
- 9:12Speaker 1: flight to get U out of it. The first flight
- 9:13Speaker 1: I seen it was in New York, So I just
- 9:15Speaker 1: bought a ticket to New York got up out of there.
- 9:17Speaker 1: What I was there for so long? Yeah, just to
- 9:20Speaker 1: get it. So you were trying to drive, Like you
- 9:23Speaker 1: drove to the border or did you fly there? We flew.
- 9:25Speaker 1: So you fly into Vancouver to the airport and before
- 9:27Speaker 1: they let you into the country, they pretty much hit
- 9:30Speaker 1: you with the line of corners. Yeah. So when I
- 9:33Speaker 1: first went to Toronto, the dude kind of gave me
- 9:36Speaker 1: a little bit of issue. I got in contact with
- 9:38Speaker 1: my lawyer, Cunner, But but the dude was cool. So
- 9:42Speaker 1: what they were saying, they really depends on who's working
- 9:44Speaker 1: at the time. But I guess Vancouver more strict because
- 9:47Speaker 1: it's connected to California. You feel me, right, Damn, that's crazy.
- 9:52Speaker 1: So you just flew to New York. Yeah, I flew
- 9:54Speaker 1: to New York, spent the night over there and at
- 9:56Speaker 1: the flight pack, well, I was on a plane for
- 9:58Speaker 1: like a whole day. I was like a terrible twenty
- 10:01Speaker 1: four forty two hours terrible. Do you do you find that, like,
- 10:07Speaker 1: you know, some of your history, does it hinder the
- 10:10Speaker 1: way people look at you? Sometimes? Are some of your
- 10:12Speaker 1: opportunities ever outside of Canada? Yeah, I feel like it's sometimes.
- 10:19Speaker 1: Excuse me, uh yeah, I feel like it's sometimes. Yeah,
- 10:25Speaker 1: Like is it like because for you, I feel like
- 10:27Speaker 1: you've been kind of like leveling up in terms of
- 10:29Speaker 1: like I just noticed the way you move. You're moving
- 10:30Speaker 1: a lot different. You're moving more like a businessman. Like
- 10:34Speaker 1: it's gotta suck to kind of like you know, that
- 10:38Speaker 1: stigma just follow you around. I'm like, bro, I'm like
- 10:40Speaker 1: an artist who like I'm not some local rapper. Yeahs
- 10:44Speaker 1: not some gang member who who sucks at rapping And
- 10:47Speaker 1: I do this as a hobby, you know what I mean. Yeah,
- 10:49Speaker 1: I actually had I had a couple of talks with
- 10:51Speaker 1: a couple. I had a couple of sit downs with
- 10:53Speaker 1: some labels, like a couple of years ago, probably like
- 10:56Speaker 1: two years ago, and then they just they just look
- 10:59Speaker 1: at like, I don't know how we suposed to market him.
- 11:02Speaker 1: It's a Filipino dude who's a crip. Like, we don't
- 11:05Speaker 1: know how this's gonna fit with anything rap like, So
- 11:07Speaker 1: it's it's just all type of stuff. Yeah. You it's
- 11:12Speaker 1: funny because you and uh uh, you know, I feel
- 11:16Speaker 1: like there is kind of a I feel like hip
- 11:20Speaker 1: hop doesn't know how to figure out the West Coast
- 11:24Speaker 1: Asian gang member rap thing yet, even though you know,

- 12:42Speaker 1: the same as like Mexicans, right or am I like

- 16:12Speaker 1: come from a from a different cloth. Yeah, like yeah,
- 16:16Speaker 1: different world. Yeah for real. Yeah, they're making like more
- 16:20Speaker 1: commercially palatable ship. You're making like gangster rap, you know
- 16:24Speaker 1: what I'm trying to do, that commercial ship. How's it
- 16:27Speaker 1: working on? Do you think your fans are like receptive
- 16:29Speaker 1: to that kind of ship? Uh? Some of them and
- 16:33Speaker 1: some of them not. But it's crazy because, like like
- 16:35Speaker 1: I was said, I pay attention to analytics, so like
- 16:39Speaker 1: my my more uppity like mainstream cell of songs that
- 16:42Speaker 1: do really good on streaming and but then but then
- 16:46Speaker 1: it's it's fans that want the you know, the old
- 16:48Speaker 1: type of music. But you just gotta balance it because
- 16:51Speaker 1: you can't please everybody, you feel me and you can't
- 16:53Speaker 1: box yourself. You gotta want to grow. Yeah do you? Uh?
- 16:58Speaker 1: I just saw Russ talked about how YouTube videos are
- 17:02Speaker 1: not music videos rather aren't as important as they once were. Uh,
- 17:08Speaker 1: and you have a lot of videos. Your your YouTube
- 17:09Speaker 1: following is pretty big. Do you feel like you're getting
- 17:12Speaker 1: the same like ROI that you used to get when
- 17:14Speaker 1: you're dropping music video? Uh? Yeah, but but I'm just
- 17:21Speaker 1: starting to like pay attention to that the different streaming services,
- 17:24Speaker 1: and it really is a different dynamic. Uh, different kind
- 17:28Speaker 1: of fans that that listen to different streaming stuff. So
- 17:33Speaker 1: like I've been noticing like on YouTube, they've been liking
- 17:38Speaker 1: more like the the more rapping rapping ship and the
- 17:41Speaker 1: streaming more more commercial stuff. Yeah yeah, because YouTube is free,
- 17:47Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and the streaming stuff is
- 17:49Speaker 1: it's probably more like older young adults or teenagers or
- 17:52Speaker 1: something who who who could pay for this streaming services?
- 17:55Speaker 1: The monthlies and stuff like you know, uh, talk about

- 21:45Speaker 1: I just don't. I just don't. I don't know if
- 21:47Speaker 1: it's necessary because you kind of put yourself in in
- 21:49Speaker 1: harm's way for no reason, just to say like, yeah,
- 21:51Speaker 1: I'm good over here, you know what I mean. Oh yeah, definitely, definitely.
- 21:54Speaker 1: That's why I hinder yourself to do something like you
- 21:58Speaker 1: can you can support from the distance. But but me,
- 22:00Speaker 1: really it's just it's just it's just more to it family,
- 22:05Speaker 1: and I'm trying to like, you know, uh looking and
- 22:08Speaker 1: opening some business and stuff out there. I actually invested
- 22:12Speaker 1: in with one of the homies on uh on the dispensary,
- 22:18Speaker 1: oh stuck there, but uh, more detail on that later,
- 22:21Speaker 1: but I went in on that, so we'll have a
- 22:24Speaker 1: dispensary open and stuck then. Uh, just some just some
- 22:27Speaker 1: stuff I'm trying to look into, like this restaurant, like
- 22:29Speaker 1: a family own restaurant, just just ship like that almost
- 22:32Speaker 1: like put the money back into the city. But they
- 22:34Speaker 1: don't mean you've got to be living there, you know
- 22:36Speaker 1: what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, because you know the
- 22:39Speaker 1: biggest haters everybody got from where they're from. For sure,
- 22:43Speaker 1: you got you just gotta maneuver, right, Yeah, Would you
- 22:46Speaker 1: ever I was gonna say, because you've obviously been successfully
- 22:49Speaker 1: independent for a very long time, would you ever have
- 22:51Speaker 1: like that? You know, if you had the opportunity to
- 22:54Speaker 1: sign a major deal, would you ever consider it? Uh? Yeah,
- 22:58Speaker 1: definitely because at the end of the day, like if
- 23:04Speaker 1: the bad if the bag is right and the terms right,
- 23:06Speaker 1: like like why not you know what I'm saying, Like,
- 23:09Speaker 1: like I said, it depends on the terms though, if
- 23:11Speaker 1: it's like I will take everything that you currently own
- 23:14Speaker 1: type ship, or if it's just all strictly the new music,
- 23:17Speaker 1: or like I said, it depends on terms. Got to
- 23:19Speaker 1: be right. Yeah, the terms got to be right. Bag
- 23:21Speaker 1: gotta be right. Terms got to be right all that. Yeah,
- 23:23Speaker 1: because if you if you're smart, you just reinvest the
- 23:25Speaker 1: money or just you ain't like, just don't blow it,
- 23:28Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. For sure, but uh, when's
