1:01
Speaker 5: And uh.
1:01
Speaker 4: Also, I just wanted to prefect the craft. I didn't
1:03
Speaker 4: want to. I want to make sure that I that
1:05
Speaker 4: I that I dropped in it and it counted. You
1:07
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. I didn't want to, especially like
1:10
Speaker 4: coming out of the group and stuff like that. I
1:12
Speaker 4: wanted to make sure everything was a line. I didn't
1:15
Speaker 4: want no record sounding the same. I didn't want me
1:17
Speaker 4: sounding the same. And uh, just being hard on myself,
1:21
Speaker 4: s tiquing myself on the music.
1:22
Speaker 3: Your household is very perfectionist.
1:25
Speaker 4: You.
1:25
Speaker 1: You, you and Cardi, y'all want to be perfection when
1:28
Speaker 1: you're when you're both come out with with your projects.
1:30
Speaker 1: What got you to the space where you said, okay,
1:32
Speaker 1: well I'm ready to record again and I'm back in
1:34
Speaker 1: the space where I can rap or I can't get
1:36
Speaker 1: in the studio where or I can focus.
1:38
Speaker 4: It was the thing missing. It was like me getting
1:40
Speaker 4: away from it. It was like taking the happiness week,
1:43
Speaker 4: Like my happiness is when I work in recording studio. Noin'
1:46
Speaker 4: start even if I know if I'm not putting it
1:47
Speaker 4: out or not, it's just my it's like my mental
1:49
Speaker 4: cycle and h I just felt myself like going into
1:53
Speaker 4: this little black little hole, and my mama was just
1:58
Speaker 4: like just do what you love or to make some music.
2:01
Speaker 4: He would want that you to push forward and win though.
2:05
Speaker 4: When you push forward, win, So that's what got me
2:08
Speaker 4: back in.
2:08
Speaker 2: Now, was there a different level of urgency with this
2:11
Speaker 2: album because you know, there's like truly no groups to
2:15
Speaker 2: go back to.
2:16
Speaker 4: No, I ain't really no urgency. It's just like not
2:19
Speaker 4: for that reason. It's for like, for my identity and
2:21
Speaker 4: for my career and life for me to push forward.
2:24
Speaker 4: That's why it took so long on or two, like
2:25
Speaker 4: because I just want to make sure I'm coming for
2:28
Speaker 4: a circle. And it's a little different than.
2:31
Speaker 1: Before now with with your brother Kuwevo and we've seen
2:35
Speaker 1: you guys perfore with deal Ward show right, and it
2:37
Speaker 1: meant a lot to the world, right because it was
2:39
Speaker 1: a surprise. Nobody seen it coming. But it just showed
2:42
Speaker 1: the beautiness of this game and how brothers can be.
2:45
Speaker 1: What was that initial call like when they called you
2:47
Speaker 1: guys and asked you guys to do it.
2:50
Speaker 4: I was in Paris during fashion week and they called
2:54
Speaker 4: and I wasn't like. I was like, I wasn't sure
2:58
Speaker 4: at the time because it's like, you know, it's running
3:00
Speaker 4: away from the reality, you know, what I'm saying, you know.
3:04
Speaker 4: And I had talked to for real, we were sitting
3:08
Speaker 4: at the show, and I was telling him like, man,
3:12
Speaker 4: I don't know if I should do it because this
3:14
Speaker 4: just ain't gonna be right, and I feel like I'm
3:16
Speaker 4: scared it's gonna put me back in that moment. And
3:18
Speaker 4: he was like, no, you gotta do that for the
3:21
Speaker 4: world and for him like in y'all lazy man, y'all,
3:23
Speaker 4: I'm in the biggest group ever in hip hop. And
3:26
Speaker 4: also like he was wont there, bro, He was like,
3:30
Speaker 4: you need you need that energy and your brother rocking
3:32
Speaker 4: their stage again, even if it's for the last time
3:35
Speaker 4: or whatever, like and this is that words like even
3:37
Speaker 4: just for the last time whatever. He don't really know
3:38
Speaker 4: what was going on, he liked, but it's gonna be
3:41
Speaker 4: a cleanser for both of y'all.
3:42
Speaker 5: What was it was?
3:44
Speaker 4: I swear it was.
3:45
Speaker 2: It was.
3:46
Speaker 5: It was.
3:46
Speaker 4: It was. It felt like at first, before I did it,
3:48
Speaker 4: I was still like because it reminds me, you know,
3:51
Speaker 4: it's a reminder. And but as we did it, I
3:54
Speaker 4: just felt like I did feel good about it, like
3:57
Speaker 4: close the chapter on the right way, like a big
4:00
Speaker 4: way unity love and like giving to the people.
4:04
Speaker 5: Also, what was it like before that?
4:06
Speaker 2: Because I know that everybody talks about I guess y'all
4:08
Speaker 2: got into something backstage somewhere.
4:11
Speaker 5: It was a video where everybody heard Cardi yelling like
4:13
Speaker 5: y'all both wrong? So what was it like before that moment?
4:17
Speaker 4: H before? What before?
4:18
Speaker 5: Before y'all got on stage?
4:19
Speaker 4: Like oh nah, we were together, man, like that shit
4:23
Speaker 4: a swart paid and swallowed like yeah, bro, missing all
4:25
Speaker 4: the other shit go out the window. You know what
4:27
Speaker 4: I'm saying. It's like family of everything, or let's do
4:29
Speaker 4: this shit right more than anything, because when you go
4:31
Speaker 4: into something with the wrong energy, you ain't gonna do
4:33
Speaker 4: it right, you know what I'm saying. Went into it
4:35
Speaker 4: with the right energy. And that's my brother.
4:37
Speaker 3: So they said you had two When y'all got back,
4:39
Speaker 3: it wasn't like it wasn't schedule. So y'all had to
4:41
Speaker 3: practice like for twenty four hours before they was to
4:44
Speaker 3: get it right.
4:44
Speaker 4: We had to practice the night before, like one one
4:47
Speaker 4: practice though it didn't it wasn't, but we was in there.
4:49
Speaker 4: We was locked in and like wanted to make sure
4:51
Speaker 4: the creative made sense. Like we've seen the rocket and
4:53
Speaker 4: all that going. Man, we actually did that last minute
4:56
Speaker 4: and then it was like I feel like the old
4:58
Speaker 4: time because we was always lady in anyways, you know
5:01
Speaker 4: what I'm saying. So but we made it work out
5:03
Speaker 4: and I feel like it was a kind of performance
5:05
Speaker 4: and we did our thing. It was good.
5:06
Speaker 3: What's your relationship now with Quabo?
5:08
Speaker 4: That's my brother at the end of the day. But
5:10
Speaker 4: we're good though, bro, just with each other in Paris.
5:13
Speaker 4: We be talking because we be going through little emotions
5:15
Speaker 4: and ship like with this ship, so I think. And
5:18
Speaker 4: it don't be for the public. That's the thing. Like
5:21
Speaker 4: when it's like this, it don't be. Everything ain't for
5:24
Speaker 4: the public to be ying and everybody want us to be.
5:27
Speaker 4: But we still got to move in our own worlds.
5:29
Speaker 4: But it's like it's all love. At the end of
5:31
Speaker 4: the day, we lost a brother. We can't you know.
5:34
Speaker 2: They want to see y'all cry on Instagram, Yeah they want,
5:37
Speaker 2: you know, not gonna get it for me, You think
5:40
Speaker 2: y'all ever make music together, not even just as migos,
5:42
Speaker 2: but just as set in I think.
5:45
Speaker 4: So it's more about like right now, for me, it's
5:48
Speaker 4: more about me, like trade my foot in the game
5:51
Speaker 4: because this is the situation also business wise, Like I'm
5:56
Speaker 4: my own business wise too, so it's like, bro, man,
6:00
Speaker 4: I got five kids too, so I gotta make sure
6:02
Speaker 4: I'm putting that food on the table.
6:03
Speaker 1: I think a lot of fans were hoping that there
6:05
Speaker 1: was maybe lost Takeoff Versus or lost Migos records, and
6:08
Speaker 1: that they would get that one more Migos album. But
6:11
Speaker 1: that doesn't seem like that's gonna happen.
6:13
Speaker 4: Nah. It ain't fair to put that pressure on us
6:15
Speaker 4: either after losing brother Man. Like maybe you know what
6:20
Speaker 4: I'm saying, the future right now, I just don't see it.
6:24
Speaker 4: It's like hard me hearing our songs sometimes in the
6:27
Speaker 4: club bro and people I might like got to smile
6:29
Speaker 4: on my face, but that ship like take Verse come on,
6:31
Speaker 4: that shit like teest me every single time. So it's like,
6:34
Speaker 4: I don't see that's doing that shit now.
6:36
Speaker 2: I can imagine because to us it's just the verse.
6:38
Speaker 2: But to you, it's like you probably think about the
6:40
Speaker 2: moment you'll.
6:42
Speaker 4: They put me in that bed every time. I was
6:44
Speaker 4: just in Starts the other night and they playing Freak
6:48
Speaker 4: No More. His Verse, come on, I'm like throwing money
6:51
Speaker 4: his verse. Come on. It's just like slowed me up
6:54
Speaker 4: real quick.
6:56
Speaker 5: So what was the story behind that song? You remember
6:58
Speaker 5: when you recorded?
7:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had just got out of jail the first
7:01
Speaker 4: time when I first got out, Wow, And we was
7:03
Speaker 4: at the studio and it was like my first time
7:06
Speaker 4: working in a big studio because I ain't never really
7:08
Speaker 4: working in the big studio. We always worked at the
7:09
Speaker 4: home before we took off. And I hated my verse.
7:14
Speaker 4: I felt like, because you know, I feel like I'm rusted.
7:16
Speaker 4: I'm coming home. I'm like, damn, rust is here. I'm thinking,
7:19
Speaker 4: they so good, they've been move they've been doing this shit.
7:21
Speaker 4: I ain't. I had not been doing it. I probably
7:23
Speaker 4: was out for like two weeks.
7:25
Speaker 5: We did that, damn, and look it's still playing in
7:27
Speaker 5: the Script club today.
7:29
Speaker 4: Now.
7:29
Speaker 5: Now, what's the difference between this album Set It Off
7:32
Speaker 5: and Father for Okay?
7:33
Speaker 4: Father Foe was like I felt like I was getting
7:36
Speaker 4: more personal about who I was, my story of going
7:40
Speaker 4: to jail, having kids young, the story of my wife,
7:43
Speaker 4: my litter than my wife. I'm just in With this album,
7:46
Speaker 4: it's more like the music wise, it's like more fun.
7:50
Speaker 4: I didn't I did all the new producers, so I
7:52
Speaker 4: didn't really self a metrosid side. I ain't really work
7:55
Speaker 4: with all the producers I worked with on this. It's
7:57
Speaker 4: like new producers I never worked with because I didn't
7:59
Speaker 4: want to create this ain't sign because I feel like
8:00
Speaker 4: artists not like as an artist sometimes like you just
8:04
Speaker 4: get stuck in your ways. And I let a lot
8:06
Speaker 4: of I worked with an an artists time, Like I
8:09
Speaker 4: know a lot of people shit on the an R game,
8:10
Speaker 4: but the g my an R was fired, so she
8:13
Speaker 4: was able to bring me different producers that I never
8:15
Speaker 4: heard of and different sounds and give me critiquing me
8:18
Speaker 4: on the music, like nah, this shiit something, this number
8:22
Speaker 4: one sound and they sound like number ten and me
8:26
Speaker 4: I was heavy because like usually I ain't going for
8:28
Speaker 4: that shit. You know, I ain't let nobody to tell
8:29
Speaker 4: me nothing, but I understand, like change the game, change
8:33
Speaker 4: the sound be changing, and you just gotta change with
8:35
Speaker 4: it or you're gonna get left.
8:37
Speaker 1: Is it difficult with you doing music right because you
8:40
Speaker 1: are a father of a husband, your father of five,
8:44
Speaker 1: but yet you're still in the club, so you know
8:45
Speaker 1: what people want to hear. You know, people in the
8:47
Speaker 1: club ain't married. You know, the people in the club
8:48
Speaker 1: might not have some kids. So when you do your music,
8:51
Speaker 1: do you say, well, I gotta put myself in near
8:54
Speaker 1: situation and take myself out from the husband and take
8:57
Speaker 1: myself out being the father five because you didn't on
8:59
Speaker 1: this sound, you know, knocked off a lot of a
9:00
Speaker 1: lot of chicks on.
9:01
Speaker 5: This as.
9:04
Speaker 4: All these women and you're married man, because I got
9:07
Speaker 4: a real wife like that, she understands like we and
9:10
Speaker 4: this this is like I gotta be relatable and especially
9:14
Speaker 4: like our age, like the average person ain't married, and
9:17
Speaker 4: like like we don't tell like people sometimes people I
9:21
Speaker 4: can see it, like you let your wife dressed like
9:22
Speaker 4: this and you let her we don't, like I'm very
9:26
Speaker 4: secure by mind, so we don't. We ain't in no
9:31
Speaker 4: control and ship like don't do this or I'm not
9:33
Speaker 4: telling her, don't do a feature with da da da
9:35
Speaker 4: da da, like because it's just like this, this, this,
9:38
Speaker 4: they're interrupt to love. I feel like when you go
9:40
Speaker 4: to doing that, because then it's like, damn, I want
9:43
Speaker 4: to be this person. I gotta talk to all these people,
9:44
Speaker 4: all these fans, and they gotta relate to me, but
9:46
Speaker 4: they can't relate to me if I'm standing in one lane.
9:50
Speaker 4: So I'm just blessed to have her.
9:52
Speaker 5: But is that real though, because you like, you know,
9:54
Speaker 5: you're married. Man, you know what I'm saying.
9:56
Speaker 4: So, but that's how But niggas ain't married.
10:00
Speaker 5: Fuck them.
10:01
Speaker 4: Okay, so you say that, but like that ain't who
10:05
Speaker 4: I'm trying to like, like marriage in this time, I
10:09
Speaker 4: feel like somebody married, probably older because they've been married
10:12
Speaker 4: for a long time.
10:13
Speaker 2: Now.
10:13
Speaker 4: Niggas ain't getting married. Girls ain't getting married. Like I
10:16
Speaker 4: still gotta be relatable. I can't turn into like like
10:20
Speaker 4: box myself into one lane. And it's like, especially the
10:23
Speaker 4: type of music you make, some lit music, some fun music.
10:25
Speaker 4: You still got kids and young as that's in high
10:28
Speaker 4: school and college still listening to it. Like if I
10:30
Speaker 4: look look at my analytics, my shit is big from
10:34
Speaker 4: thirteen to eighteen, still like long like big still so
10:37
Speaker 4: I'm still influencing it the generation. It's not relatable, So
10:40
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be out of touch.
10:42
Speaker 2: What about the people who those same kids that love
10:44
Speaker 2: your personal life, they love you and Cardi together as
10:48
Speaker 2: a couple, and they follow y' all on social media
10:50
Speaker 2: and see all of that, and they like, damn, they
10:52
Speaker 2: might want to hear that reflected in the music because
10:53
Speaker 2: I know people got really excited when they heard y'all
10:55
Speaker 2: doing the album together.
10:56
Speaker 5: Yeah or EP or whatever it was.
10:59
Speaker 4: They ain't get mad at me because I'm not gonna
11:01
Speaker 4: tell her life. You can't say shaking yeah, so like
11:05
Speaker 4: you're having a good time. Girls want to feel that
11:07
Speaker 4: shit them bar she be saying.
11:09
Speaker 1: But I guess you know too, when Cardy talks about that,
11:12
Speaker 1: I guess we all automatically assume when she says he's
11:14
Speaker 1: shaking ass, shaking asks for a husband, you know what
11:16
Speaker 1: I mean, It's like she's doing it for set.
11:18
Speaker 3: But you know what I mean, for you?
11:20
Speaker 1: When I heard I knocking off, depends something like, oh,
11:22
Speaker 1: he's putting his mind frame on somebody that's in the club,
11:24
Speaker 1: not himself.
11:25
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got to bro because it's like it's more
11:30
Speaker 4: of bros doing that. Then there's people that's man. Facts,
11:34
Speaker 4: These are facts. These are facts. So I just still
11:37
Speaker 4: gotta be relatable to him. They gotta still feel like,
11:40
Speaker 4: oh shit, ain't on no old nigga shit all like shit,
11:42
Speaker 4: I got man nigga. We don't even understand him no more.
11:46
Speaker 4: And then it's the worst. Then there's no coming back
11:47
Speaker 4: from that. So it's entertaining, you know what I'm saying.
11:51
Speaker 4: Entertaining and entertainment.
11:53
Speaker 5: For the first song on the album, you said you
11:54
Speaker 5: knew you was the one since you left the group.
11:56
Speaker 5: I think that was the line. What does that line mean?
11:58
Speaker 2: You?
12:03
Speaker 4: You caught me right there fast? How you know about that?
12:07
Speaker 4: Oh y'all niggas ain't even telling me what the album
12:14
Speaker 4: with it?
12:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I.
12:15
Speaker 5: Definitely bug with it.
12:16
Speaker 4: So that's just like a confidence bar. Like you know,
12:20
Speaker 4: I went through some things I can't really speak on,
12:22
Speaker 4: like I stepped out of the boss and like I
12:23
Speaker 4: had to get my ship together on the business side
12:26
Speaker 4: of things, and like I was, I was like after that,
12:31
Speaker 4: the freedom and the being able to be in control
12:33
Speaker 4: of my creative and being able to do that was like,
12:36
Speaker 4: now I can show you who I am if you notice,
12:39
Speaker 4: like now people kind of see like I got a personality.
12:41
Speaker 4: They fucking with me. Like I feel like that ship
12:43
Speaker 4: was kind of like bottled end and when when when? When?
12:48
Speaker 4: When everything was all its one? Because it wasn't really
12:50
Speaker 4: about me, it was about us. This album is about me.
12:54
Speaker 1: I could also tell the album that, well, I knew
12:56
Speaker 1: it beforehand, but it shows more that you're real hip
12:59
Speaker 1: hop lover right, like, like your roots are a very
13:02
Speaker 1: long for hip hop, and you know, even with the Dawn,
13:04
Speaker 1: I think it's a Don Tolliver one where they kind
13:06
Speaker 1: of sample a bust of ROMs and you're kind of
13:07
Speaker 1: doing bust and Rohns flow that you actually so how
13:10
Speaker 1: important was hip hop rolling up to you? Because I
13:12
Speaker 1: know you got roots in New York. I know you
13:14
Speaker 1: got roots in the land. I know you got roots
13:15
Speaker 1: a little bit everywhere.
13:16
Speaker 3: I'd be seeing set with people up be like, how
13:17
Speaker 3: the fuck do you know him?
13:18
Speaker 4: Man?
13:18
Speaker 1: Like, so you know, talk about your roots and and
13:21
Speaker 1: what hip hop means to you because you sample a
13:23
Speaker 1: lot of that on this album.

14:43
Speaker 2: One of the things you say throughout the album is
14:45

14:55
Speaker 4: like it's like a it's like me talking to myself almost,
14:58
Speaker 4: like everything you went through it's because of you. Okay,
15:02
Speaker 4: it's like taking responsibility. Everything you went through it is
15:05
Speaker 4: because of you. Like anytime anything happens, it's on you.
15:11
Speaker 4: That's all it was. It wasn't like a specific like
15:13
Speaker 4: y'all blaming me. No, it was just like being a man,
15:17
Speaker 4: being a man. Yeah, accountability, like accountability for all actions.
15:21
Speaker 1: People were mad at you a couple of weeks ago
15:23
Speaker 1: because you did that interview what's the name Bobby.
15:27
Speaker 5: I felt like it was.
15:33
Speaker 3: That you even gave her an opportunity to interview you,
15:35
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
15:36
Speaker 1: But when you look at the interview, I mean I'm
15:37
Speaker 1: looking at one time, I think it was like it's
15:38
Speaker 1: over three million views already, So you know, people were saying, well,
15:41
Speaker 1: why would you give.
15:42
Speaker 3: That girl an opportunity and not somebody from the culture.
15:46
Speaker 4: Restyle. I did my research and I was like, I'm
15:50
Speaker 4: over to do it because you know, I don't like
15:52
Speaker 4: doing interviews at all. I was like, I'm over to
15:54
Speaker 4: doing it. I'm on the way like that. And I
15:58
Speaker 4: feel like it was kind of comical, like it's kind
16:00
Speaker 4: of funny. It's kind of funny to me. It wasn't
16:02
Speaker 4: like I wasn't taking that ship like offensive and ship
16:05
Speaker 4: like that. You just gotta be on your toes when
16:06
Speaker 4: you're doing it, and.
16:08
Speaker 5: She needed to be.
16:10
Speaker 4: Yeah, she needed that, you know what I'm saying. And
16:12
Speaker 4: also like I'm doing this for the brothers. You needing
16:16
Speaker 4: to catch me slipping on this show and be down
16:19
Speaker 4: talk to me and you like you're just coming up
16:21
Speaker 4: off to the top. It's all love though, But she
16:23
Speaker 4: she cool. Man. I felt like a lot of people
16:26
Speaker 4: did take a lot of comedy out of it. It
16:28
Speaker 4: was it was supposed to be funny. Man.
16:30
Speaker 5: You told her she needed some season.
16:31
Speaker 2: You do.
16:34
Speaker 5: Season.
16:34
Speaker 2: I feel like I like what she do, but I
16:37
Speaker 2: feel like you still got to know. You got to
16:39
Speaker 2: know something about the artist. That whole playing dumb like
16:41
Speaker 2: you don't know who you're talking through that you.
16:43
Speaker 4: Know something you got you know. I think just getting
16:46
Speaker 4: caught up in your character kind of like it can
16:49
Speaker 4: get on you. You should especially dealing with these brothers
16:53
Speaker 4: black folks. You said, with a black person and you're
16:54
Speaker 4: doing that, it's kind of like.
16:56
Speaker 5: What the absolutely absolutely so.
17:00
Speaker 4: But it's cool though. Man, it ain't no issues or
17:02
Speaker 4: or nothing. But I feel like a lot of people's
17:04
Speaker 4: matter at her, Like but that's how she did the interviews.
17:08
Speaker 4: I think I brought it to our world more. It's
17:11
Speaker 4: like a lot of people like, who the fuck? Why
17:13
Speaker 4: did she? It was kind of taking it as like
17:16
Speaker 4: being disproved, but she wasn't. She just just I think
17:18
Speaker 4: that's the way she got on.
17:20
Speaker 5: You know, I hear I hear you channel a lot
17:23

Speaker 4: I be feeling like bro that ship like sitting down
31:15
Speaker 4: with people like maybe I ain't found the right person,
31:18
Speaker 4: but I don't feel like sometimes people like can't relate
31:24
Speaker 4: to ship, like your definite family is different like could
31:28
Speaker 4: have been from like sickness and my death is different
31:30

32:05
Speaker 4: I can't like it ain't for everybody to see.
32:09
Speaker 2: That's why culturally competent therapists and psychiatrists and grief counselors
32:13
Speaker 2: are very important.
32:13
Speaker 5: You got you gotta have somebody who from it don't
32:16
Speaker 5: understand it.
32:17

32:19
Speaker 4: giving people who maybe have a record and those two
32:22
Speaker 4: people you need to have in the office because they
32:24
Speaker 4: gonna they've been through some ship that they can really
32:27
Speaker 4: relate to Black people. Like I feel like the therapy
32:29
Speaker 4: thing don't really beef black folks a lot of times

32:42
Speaker 4: good on paper, everything it's good. The college d da

Speaker 5: What else? I don't know. I got to listen to
34:05
Speaker 5: it again.
34:06
Speaker 4: To listen to it, I wanted to bring rap, like
34:08
Speaker 4: rapping on the song, but it's a lot of auto tune,
34:10
Speaker 4: a lot of like I got melodies on here of course, but.
34:13
Speaker 5: Like your voice don't need it though, niggas got to
34:16

Speaker 5: Or what does success look like to you? For set
34:30
Speaker 5: it off? Like what do you want this album to do?
34:31
Speaker 2: Because I know you're trying to call out you already
34:33
Speaker 2: got your own identity is off set, but I think
34:34
Speaker 2: you're trying to call it out musically, So yeah, what
34:37
Speaker 2: does success look like for all set?
34:39
Speaker 5: Uh?
34:41
Speaker 4: The music connected to the people? Like I'm not you
34:42
Speaker 4: know how we came in the game, like the the
34:45
Speaker 4: the like I hate how everything is clocked now, like
34:49
Speaker 4: the number of ship like the first day, because then
34:53
Speaker 4: it gives people pins already immediately they ain't even chatting
34:56
Speaker 4: to us. So me, I'm just trying to connect musically
34:58
Speaker 4: with these people. And like like you said, identify offsets
35:03
Speaker 4: sound like like I did on Reflair that was like,
35:07
Speaker 4: oh shit, bro got that broke, like it's proven like
35:12
Speaker 4: and showing my creativity, like see my album cover falling
35:15
Speaker 4: from the Sky outside down, but I'm still on top.
35:18
Speaker 4: It's like being able to express the art. It's not
35:22
Speaker 4: numbers for me that shit be capped because I come
35:25
Speaker 4: from see my My number one record was number sixty
35:28
Speaker 4: and forty twenty and ten then number one, So I know,
35:33
Speaker 4: like working the record. I feel like people don't be
35:37
Speaker 4: working records no more cause it's like or seeing the
35:40
Speaker 4: importance of radio and shit, because that's what keeps the
35:44
Speaker 4: keeps the wheels spinning. Like people be on some Oh
35:47
Speaker 4: I dropped this week, Okay, fuck that, I'm working on
35:50
Speaker 4: a new album. I'm working on. You gotta work the records, bro,
35:52
Speaker 4: because then that's when they be season. It's like season
35:55
Speaker 4: and Chicken going back to that. You got to marrinick
35:57
Speaker 4: that motherfucker that is shit. They get right, and then
36:01
Speaker 4: then when you play the meal, it's like, ooh, I
36:02
Speaker 4: want to eat that again. They keep going back to it.
36:05
Speaker 4: That's why Father for wasn't like a lit album, like
36:08
Speaker 4: like a Turn THEO album, because I wanted you to
36:10
Speaker 4: digest who I was like and walking in my shoes,
36:14
Speaker 4: dealing with the shit and the traumas I went through
36:16
Speaker 4: the wife and the kids and the and then that
36:19
Speaker 4: album gave me the identity to be able to do
36:21
Speaker 4: this because I'm not gonna lie. Every person that always
36:23
Speaker 4: taught me about that album, it was like, we appreciate
36:25
Speaker 4: the album and made me see you in another lens
36:27
Speaker 4: that I never looked at you at. And so it
36:30
Speaker 4: gave people like an opening to me. So now this
36:32
Speaker 4: one's gonna be like, yeah, I'm here, I'm here now.
36:36
Speaker 5: Now.
36:36
Speaker 2: I love this conversation because everything you're saying, because I
36:38
Speaker 2: saw you say the other day about how it's not
36:41
Speaker 2: too many rappers doing festivals anymore, but so many people.
36:43
Speaker 5: Can make money.
36:44
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to bring all that back. You're gonna
36:46
Speaker 2: have to bring back the end all helping with projects.
36:48
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to bring back caring about radio. You
36:50
Speaker 2: know what I mean to get them spins like that's
36:52
Speaker 2: how you gonna end up on them stage.
36:53

36:56
Speaker 4: checking your numbers, they checking you with your song that
36:59
Speaker 4: don't be able. I learned that at like I think
37:01
Speaker 4: I learned that at twenty sixteen. I forgot who the
37:03
Speaker 4: artist was. They was going after us, and I'm like,
37:08
Speaker 4: I know we had it in it.
