• 10:38
  Speaker 2: for real, Like, all right, what did they to do?

• 11:26
  Speaker 2: that's what you were talking about. It wasn't gonna never
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: make it. So it was like, yeah, but that's why
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: I don't crush people dreams now, because I done been
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: in like certain situations where I know what they feel like.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I can't cruse nobody dreams. As a child, it was
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: it was crazy that they had to be that real
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: and that harsh, you know what I'm saying. But it
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: was good that I had at an early age, because
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: somebody who may think they're strong probably went through that.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Like at twenty five, you feel, men, they don't even
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: know how to deal with that shit. You're thinking, you
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: read it, you feel I'm saying, but I had to
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: deal with that shit at an early age, like somebody
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: telling me some shit that I believed in since I
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: was a child and tell me that I was no
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: good and then I wasn't gonna be shit with it,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: and it was just like find something else to do.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: It was like, I ain't never heard that in my life,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: you know, And once that happened, I was just like,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: all right. I was always open minded to doing new
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: ship if this don't work. So I've been like that
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: since fifteen. If this don't work, I'm gonna do that.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: If that don't work, I'm gonna do that.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: So what made the drugs not work?
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I ain't say that didn't work.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Well, you you pivoted out of it.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it just wasn't for me, okay, So what.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Was the thing that made it not for you?
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: It was just God telling me it wasn't for me.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: It was just you gotta be you gotta be paying
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: attention when when you go through shit and he make
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: you sit still and it's a it's a time of reflection,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. You have to really reflect
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: and try to make sure that your next move is
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: your best move. You know what I'm saying. So the
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: person that y'all know today and who who I become
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: and who I am and what I stand for, was
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: a person that was just like a right, I had
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: a street mentality just like that, Like how I'm so
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: adamant by doing this. I was adamant in the street.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I was adamant, like I won't to see a drugs
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Like if we got to meet the plug, I gotta
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: learn how to whip cocaine, Like I'm trying to whatever
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: lane there was, well, there were the money was being made.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I have to learn that and be that and do that.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: And I got stabbed up in twenty thirteen and I
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: had to sit down and really just reflect on my
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: life and figure it out. And that's when Divine and
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: the Comedy came about. You know, when I had nothing,

• 13:48
  Speaker 2: so it was like I was in the cast for
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: a couple months, long time. But it's like when you
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: when you break bones and you shatter bones and you
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: cut things, that's along recuperation, Like that's a long especially
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: when you have to relearn to use things. You can
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: sit there and be like, I'm gonna get my feeling back,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: but you don't get that actual muscle memory. You have
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: to work on that, you know what I'm saying. Especially
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: when something happened to you and then you like have
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: to start over. You will think like, oh my han
• 14:17

  Speaker 1: time is long, time is longer. And not only that,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: it was like, weren't nobody over there, nobody and this
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: is before vine falls off complete and they.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Really weren't falling off. It was just they had other
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: apps that was being competitors and they was giving us
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: more seconds, and it wasn't really no way for us
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: to make income off of Vine like that. It was
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: more so notoriety. And when Instagram came out, it was
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: a little bit more faster than Vine, and the income
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: started coming when people wanted you to come out for
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: appearances and stuff. You're not getting called out for appearances
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: on the Vine, but I came out this shit. You
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: just known on one of these little social media platforms.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: And back then the big labels didn't really know what
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: to do with these upcoming social media stars. They knew
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: people from YouTube. And you gotta also understand my arranger.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: YouTube we're watching We're going on YouTube to watch fights, ships.

  Speaker 2: look up anything. We won't We're going on world start
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: looking for a fight.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: So you're you're so you're you. You're able to take
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: your fan base off of Vine and transfer to Instagram,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: which is a huge feat. Okay, so you take your
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: fan base, you switch to Instagram, you realize that you
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: have something. When do you actually realize that you have
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: something enough? Well, let me backtrack. After the hand situation.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: You completely stopped doing deal dealing, right, Yeah, I knew
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: that wasn't gonna do nothing, Okay, So I had to
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: make it. I had to make a pack, not really
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: a pack.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: It was just a promise to the high power that
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: if I take these years, I ain't really gonna be
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: setting little dope. Well I'm not gonna be setting a
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: little dope. It took me a minute to get my
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: like like completely stopped, probably a year. You know how,
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: niggas still be trying to be in the street. You
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. I'm not supposed to have my
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: hand touching it and doing all that. You and you're
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: not a street dealer. You're not. You can't ask me
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: for some weed and I received money for it. I'm
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: gonna feel so bad. I can't. I can't hand for
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: hand through no drug transactional like that ship. I'm gonna
• 21:30

• 21:33
  Speaker 2: I leave that alone to become this, I guess this
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: comedian or whatever. This is what it's working. I know
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get somebody of it, but I don't really know.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I'm really trying to be a music star. So I'm
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: gonna just make a know the ride and the drop
• 21:47

• 22:02
  Speaker 2: with No, they listened to it, but they ain't get signed.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: That's why I was nice. Year. Maybe I do need
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: what is this? I don't know what it is yet.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know what this is. You know, I gotta
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: wake up and really don't want to do this shit
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: and record videos and my handhard and I want to
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: make some money. I can't sell no dough.
• 22:23

  Speaker 1: do the switch over?
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: No, I ain't make no money like two and a
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: half year later. That what I'm trying to tell people.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: You got to stay down for the come up.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: So you stayed down for two and a half years
• 22:34

• 22:40
  Speaker 2: No, I'm not. I'm not struggling. I know how to hustle.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: That's the thing though I wasn't just I wasn't selling
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: weedemailing cocaine. It was just like a r the vine
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: was it was a it was a thing. It was
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: a little thing on vine where you could do ads
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: for a company or something, make a couple of dollar.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Then Instagram you do a couple shout outs. Then I
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: started being able to get booked in clubs to do appearances,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: so you kind of make a couple of thousand with
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: the club appearance. So it's like, all right, I probably
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: made three four thousand a month, three thousand that month,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: but it like I ain't got to say an no dout.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, of course you feel me.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: I can use this in order to do this, but
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know how hard to go at this, and
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: I don't even know what this is. I'm just using
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: it right now to do enough to get by. And
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: then once other things started coming about, like all right,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: you gotta learn how to do stand up.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: That's what it's gonna be my next coming and all.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: That, and it was like I needed to perfect marketing
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: myself on Instagram for me to keep going to the
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: next level. So now I knew I'm like, okay, I'm
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: getting booked for appearances. This is twenty fourteen and fifteen,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: and it's like, all right, but I gotta be a comedian.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: I gotta learn this. So I didn't go get no
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: money for a whole year, just so I can be
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: able to understand what being a comedian was. The fourteen
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: I started doing comedy twenty fourteen, I ain't start booking
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: shows for real to like twenty sixteen.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Wow, So for two years you're basically just studying comedy.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: I'm working, I'm learning.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: You're learning. So are you going out every night? You're
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: just watching old school videos.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Now I'm watching videos and watching other the legends and
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: going to already open up, pop up, you know what
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: I'm saying.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: The opening I'm doing all oh every week? And how
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: was your first time going up?
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: My first time going up? It was a music show.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: They just look at me. But you got to break
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: the ice though, So that's the thing. I broke the
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: ice and now able to call myself a comedian because
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I hadn't done what comedians do. Grab the mice and
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: try to tell Joe's from the people that you don't
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: know right then and there. But it's like, all right,
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: where do I go for mine, Do I continue or
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: it's a journey. It's a journey. I remember the day
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: I started to where I am now, Like even with
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: the confidence and being able to go on stage with
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: the confidence was saying I am a performer. But I
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: remember the stages of me not understanding, like this job
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: picked me because God wanted me to do this, and
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: this was way quicker than any like when you do
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: your college. Steve harbystite that he said, when you do
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: your calling, you feel me, God bless you, abundant it
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: you feel me like. That's why I said it was
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: it was nothing but good came out of this.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Nothing When I sold dope it was bad. It was
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: not I'm gonna say bad. It was just stressful. It
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: was stressful.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: You don't feel like your life right now can be stressful.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: We consider stressful.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: No, it's not that. It's just that's why I got
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: my hustle from. That's why you realize people that's complacent,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: they don't have the energy to hustle. You gotta have
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: a certain energy to be a hustler, that undeniable determination
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: of going to get it by any means. It could
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: be a sense of stress if you're not strong enough
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: to understand, like I gotta do this in order to
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: get to the next day. Like it was a day
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: and I ain't feel like it's inting dope. But it
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: was like my phone ringing, I gotta get up, go
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: down here whatever, I gotta go to the stove, got this,
• 26:06

• 26:12
  Speaker 2: as I sit down, my phone getting wrong again. Got it?
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: But you want some money, so.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: You're doing You're doing your comedy. So before this comedy,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: it was very clear though that this is the path
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: you are agreed with God to take. Okay, so you're
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: doing your comedy two years, still struggling. When's your first
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: real big break? By the way, you're still cooking? No
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: I have.

• 26:46
  Speaker 1: And when you cook at home right.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: Like this, when I cook, no I have. Yeah, I
• 26:54

• 27:11
  Speaker 1: tell you something. When I was coming to Atlanta, all
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: I could think was, I can't wait to see d

• 27:47
  Speaker 1: break because you had a lot.

• 27:57
  Speaker 2: And then that was the the beginning of the industry break.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: I had the social media break with Vine and Instagram.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: But then now it's like the industry break.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: It was like, now, did Nick reach out to you
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: or did you audition?
• 28:14

• 28:17
  Speaker 2: time called Archive Nation. We had young Thug and he
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: name with Hudson and you know what I'm saying that

  Speaker 2: it was a great management team at the time, and
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: they had e mail Hudson and he had an audition,
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: and just so happened that they knew that I was
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: around and was around with the same team, and it
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: was like, yeah, you know what I'm saying, we got

• 28:39
  Speaker 2: do the audition and Nick was there and he was like, yeah,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: I know you know what I'm saying. Let me see something.

• 38:51
  Speaker 2: and what you do.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: That's what you learned in the industry. But now I
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: come to eighty five South, shoutouts to everything you guys
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: have felt here and there's so much love in this environment.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: It's absolutely beautiful, especially coming from La because La we
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: don't First of all, there's no hospitality like what I've
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: experienced here at eighty five. Is that why you built this?
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: I would say this domain over here because you wanted
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: a safe haven. Because this doesn't feel like industry over here.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: It feels like love and family.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: It's very structured, but it's you know when when when
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: when God aligned you up with people, that's you know,
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: God fearing and really have a vision and trust people.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: You know, you can really build anything. And I think
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: the infrastructure on building something or how it's to be done,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: we really don't have no guide for it. You know
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: a lot of people think that, oh you know, Jake
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: three three real fabricateing shit, Like even you say how
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: long does it take for you to make money? Tell
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: you a long time to make some money and depending
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: on what you think is money.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was gonna be Also another question was like,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: what did at least when you get that first check
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: from being broke, you were like, yo, there was had
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: to have been that moment of like, yeah, I just.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: Knew what I was risking to get this money that
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: I ain't risking no more.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: What do you mean are you comparing it to the drug?
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just saying risking period. It was like, ooh
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: I got four thousand and I didn't have to risk
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: my life for it. You feel that's more motivation.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: It was like I feel like that pre that your
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: life before is where you kind of hold that bar
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: of everything.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: Is it?
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's that's how I that's my analogy for it all.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: It's like, oh, this is the cocaine, this is the weed,
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: this is the plug, Oh, this is publicskbar, this is
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, like everything has a you know,
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: an analogy for it because I know how serious it was, like,
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: don't put your name on bad dope. You want to
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: have an easy sit Okay, you know what to do?
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: Have a heart seal. Okay, you know when it's slow. Okay,
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: you know when it's feed up.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, but that's your measuring tool.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: That's my measuring tool and the business.
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but then you have this other measuring tool when
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: it comes to God and spiritually.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so you can always have a great heart and
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: great character so you won't become wicked in the world.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: Because but I'm also thankful that I'm not in the
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: streets because I'd have been a very not likable person. Okay,
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Like y'all know me, And
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: then it's crazy because like even when in high school,
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: you see me, I'm winning class, clown and all that.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: But it's like my friends know me for that. My
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: peers may have seen me in there. You know, you
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: know me for that. But if I don't know, you
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: ain't speaking. I ain't really you know, I ain't really.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: I'm not really a friendly person, you know, I'm not
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: like he hare No, no, no, I'm not just attracting
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: energy that I don't know. I don't really don't want
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: to be involved. I really don't want to have a conversation.

  Speaker 2: I know what I need. I know how much to eat.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: Did you build this infrastructure during the pandemic or was

  Speaker 1: it in process prior to this?
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: Right here is a collective of people created. We did
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: it to be in this way like everybody.
