Speaker 1: We're in studio with a guy who literally has a
0:03
Speaker 1: massive following and hasn't even graced country radio yet, but
0:07
Speaker 1: he's about to mattox bats. And what's up doing?
0:08
Speaker 2: What's going on? How are you doing?
0:10
Speaker 1: Life is good?
0:10
Speaker 3: You?
0:11
Speaker 2: I can't complain, you know, I'm just living it up.
0:14
Speaker 1: I gotta say, because you just turned fourteen.
0:17
Speaker 2: I just turned fifteen? Fifteen fifteen?
0:19
Speaker 1: How's the driving thing going?
0:20
Speaker 2: It's good?
0:21
Speaker 3: I mean, all right, so I'm going to keep it
0:22
Speaker 3: a whole buck. I do homeschool, right yeah, And I'm
0:25
Speaker 3: like since I was on tour, I mean, I didn't
0:28
Speaker 3: want to do school, but my mom may me do school.
0:30
Speaker 2: But I'm a little bit behind, so I have to.
0:32
Speaker 2: I have to get caught up like one.
0:33
Speaker 3: Week or like two weeks of school, which takes like
0:35
Speaker 3: two days for me. It's pretty easy to get caught up,
0:38
Speaker 3: but like two weeks of school and then go get
0:40
Speaker 3: my permit. But I'm a pretty good driver, just off
0:42
Speaker 3: like growing up on a farm and driving around in
0:44
Speaker 3: my papa's truck.
0:45
Speaker 2: So I'm doing okay. I think I'll be all right.
0:46
Speaker 1: So let me ask you the teachers versus the public
0:50
Speaker 1: school versus homeschool. Which ones are better?
0:52
Speaker 3: Definitely definitely homeschool, just because you know, I get two
0:56
Speaker 3: teachers when I'm at homeschool, my father and my mother.
0:58
Speaker 3: I mean, they're pretty legit. I'm pretty close with them.
1:01
Speaker 3: Pretty good teachers.
1:02
Speaker 2: But I mean I liked public school. It was cool.
1:04
Speaker 3: I miss seeing all my friends, but homeschool's pretty legit
1:07
Speaker 3: because I can get everything done by like eleven o'clock.
1:09
Speaker 1: It's been roll, Yes, sir, What has this whole thing
1:13
Speaker 1: been like? Because thanks to TikTok and YouTube and all that.
1:18
Speaker 1: I don't want to say it's easier for an artist
1:20
Speaker 1: to start a career, but there's definitely more options to
1:22
Speaker 1: just begging a record label to listen to you and
1:24
Speaker 1: give you a chance exactly. So what was that like
1:27
Speaker 1: when things started to take off?
1:28
Speaker 2: Dude? It was sick.
1:30
Speaker 3: I mean from posting my first TikTok video and going
1:32
Speaker 3: live for the first time on TikTok, I mean we
1:34
Speaker 3: just saw like crazy just growth off rip, Like we
1:37
Speaker 3: had crazy support. Like from my first live I'm getting
1:40
Speaker 3: a couple hundred, couple of thousand viewers and just like
1:43
Speaker 3: I have like a thousand followers. It's just crazy it's
1:45
Speaker 3: just the love and support that people were giving me
1:48
Speaker 3: just throughout, like the whole process, especially the beginning. It's
1:51
Speaker 3: just it's just absolutely awesome. I mean it's great. I
1:54
Speaker 3: give it all back to the fans. I mean, I
1:55
Speaker 3: got a few fans sit in front of me right now,
1:57
Speaker 3: so I just give it all back to them. But
1:59
Speaker 3: it's just because I wouldn't be here talking to you
2:01
Speaker 3: without them, and just it's been crazy.
2:03
Speaker 2: It's been a crazy ride. And like you said, it's
2:05
Speaker 2: it is.
2:06
Speaker 3: It's like you said, you don't want to say it's easier,
2:09
Speaker 3: but you definitely have more opportunities to get like recognized
2:13
Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff through the social media stuff.
2:15
Speaker 2: So it's it's definitely awesome. I love all the opportunities.
2:18
Speaker 1: Why now, obviously because of the fans that share the
2:21
Speaker 1: same house as me. I've yeah, I can don't make
2:24
Speaker 1: me sing, because I will, but no, I've gotten to
2:26
Speaker 1: hear the songs and the music is good man. But
2:29
Speaker 1: there's there's a lot of people your age, younger, older,
2:33
Speaker 1: trying to break through the same as you did with
2:35
Speaker 1: social media. Why do you think it was easy for
2:38
Speaker 1: fans to see the first video and keep coming back.
2:41
Speaker 3: I feel like, just to give a little bit of
2:44
Speaker 3: advice to the other young artists out there trying to,
2:47
Speaker 3: you know, break through in the social media game. It's just, uh,
2:50
Speaker 3: you don't want to just do the music. You want
2:52
Speaker 3: to show them a little bit of your personality. And
2:53
Speaker 3: one of my biggest videos that blew up for me
2:56
Speaker 3: during the beginning was one of my get ready with
2:58
Speaker 3: me is Right? And I didn't see a whole lot
3:00
Speaker 3: of people doing that, and I saw this one video
3:02
Speaker 3: and I was just like, I think I could do that,
3:04
Speaker 3: make it my own and make it just a little
3:06
Speaker 3: bit of maddic, see, you know. And I posted one
3:08
Speaker 3: of those and it, I mean, it did awesome. It
3:09
Speaker 3: got like a couple million views. And that was one
3:11
Speaker 3: of my first videos. So as long as you even
3:14
Speaker 3: it out showing a little bit of personality and also
3:16
Speaker 3: showing your music. If I mean, if you have a personality,
3:19
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, you gotta have the personality, but but
3:23
Speaker 3: if you have a personality and you just show that
3:25
Speaker 3: a little bit, I feel like you can go a
3:27
Speaker 3: long way with that.
3:28
Speaker 2: One hundred percent.
3:29
Speaker 1: Before music started taking off, was there something like, you know,
3:32
Speaker 1: I mean, you're still a young man. You're still growing up,
3:34
Speaker 1: But is there something that you were Like, I want
3:36
Speaker 1: to play baseball, I want to play football. I want
3:38
Speaker 1: to build rocket ships with Elon Musk. But yeah, like no, that's.
3:42
Speaker 2: What got me into music.
3:43
Speaker 3: I mean I played basketball and baseball, where my two
3:46
Speaker 3: main sports were really basketball, been playing that my entire
3:48
Speaker 3: life was my first love. It's really all I wanted
3:51
Speaker 3: to do up until I got this need disease. I
3:53
Speaker 3: say this every time, but I get I got this
3:56
Speaker 3: need disease on my right knee. It's called osgod Schlaughter's disease.
3:59
Speaker 3: And we went to this the specialist who only like
4:02
Speaker 3: works on this kind of disease, and he said it's
4:04
Speaker 3: the worst one he's ever seen, and he's been doing
4:06
Speaker 3: it for like forty years. So it was pretty disheartening,
4:08
Speaker 3: but it is what it is. When one door opens,
4:10
Speaker 3: another one, you know, cracks. But yeah, I couldn't run, jump, stop,
4:15
Speaker 3: do anything to play basketball or any sports on this knee.
4:17
Speaker 3: So I was prevented from playing anything for an entire summer.
4:20
Speaker 3: And that's why me and my dad started getting back
4:22
Speaker 3: into music and you know, play on TikTok and all
4:24
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. And ever since then it's just
4:26
Speaker 3: kind of you know, snowballed and got bigger.
4:28
Speaker 1: So did that start as something therapeutic for you then,
4:31
Speaker 1: knowing that you were losing something that you kind of
4:33
Speaker 1: could get lost in something else.
4:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent, because I mean I was I
4:36
Speaker 3: was bored out of my mind right Like I didn't
4:39
Speaker 3: because previous summers I was either playing baseball or basketball
4:42
Speaker 3: like every weekend, like all the time.
4:44
Speaker 2: I was bored, like I didn't know what to do.
4:47
Speaker 2: And it was actually my mom.
4:48
Speaker 3: I give all the credits to my mom because she
4:51
Speaker 3: started a TikTok account and just posted stuff like very
4:55
Speaker 3: mom stuff, if you know what I mean. But it
4:58
Speaker 3: was great. I love my mom for it. I give
5:00
Speaker 3: all credit to her. But she was really the one
5:02
Speaker 3: who was just like Max, I think you should start
5:04
Speaker 3: going live on TikTok and just just give you something
5:07
Speaker 3: to do with dad and that kind of stuff. Because
5:08
Speaker 3: my dad, he grew up around music. He was in
5:10
Speaker 3: like family bands and all that kind of stuff, bluegrass scene,
5:13
Speaker 3: and he kind of passed that on down to me
5:15
Speaker 3: and we got into it a few years prior.
5:17
Speaker 2: Then it kind of fell off because of sports.
5:18
Speaker 3: But then after I got hurt, we started picking back
5:21
Speaker 3: up and started going live on TikTok.
5:22
Speaker 1: So yeah, Dad's like you got hurt, we could make music.
5:26
Speaker 3: Again, exactly exactly because like I'm I was never like
5:29
Speaker 3: the biggest fan of the blue grass. I love bluegrass.
5:32
Speaker 3: I have the biggest respect for the blue grass picker.
5:34
Speaker 3: It's like, it's it's awesome. They're crazy talented, like my dad,
5:37
Speaker 3: Like he's a like could be a professional mandolin picker.
5:40
Speaker 2: It's awesome. But I have so much respect for them.
5:42
Speaker 3: But it's never something that my mind was just like
5:44
Speaker 3: really like going after and we went to like these
5:47
Speaker 3: festivals and all this kind of stuff.
5:49
Speaker 2: It was sick and I love it, but it was cool.
5:52
Speaker 2: But he was pretty excited when I got hurt. I
5:55
Speaker 2: guess you could say, yes.
5:56
Speaker 1: Well, so that dad is a world class picker. Yeah,
6:00
Speaker 1: at some point, where's the collab coming?
6:03
Speaker 3: No, I wish it does. Bro, he's got to get
6:04
Speaker 3: in the studio with me. Every time I ask, he's like, no,
6:06
Speaker 3: you do what you do. But we're trying to get
6:08
Speaker 3: him in the studio or get him on stage.
6:09
Speaker 2: One time. I think it'd be awes.
6:11
Speaker 1: Listen, you pulled Dad on stage one time? That place
6:13
Speaker 1: goes crazy.
6:13
Speaker 3: I know.
6:14
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. We actually did it.
6:16
Speaker 3: We did a hometown show and cross plain Sennescy is
6:19
Speaker 3: where I'm from and where he's from, where my whole
6:22
Speaker 3: family's from. We did a hometown show and we actually
6:24
Speaker 3: pulled him up on stage.
6:25
Speaker 2: He never he didn't play mandolin, did you. I don't
6:27
Speaker 2: know why.
6:27
Speaker 3: I mean, he's crazy good, but we didn't play mandolin.
6:30
Speaker 3: We just we played a few songs together that were
6:32
Speaker 3: some of our nearest and dearest sour hearts that we
6:35
Speaker 3: played when I was a young kid.
6:36
Speaker 2: So that was pretty that.
6:38
Speaker 1: Listen the Maddox Monday numbers, I'm sure are big already. Yeah,
6:41
Speaker 1: if you promote Dad coming through to play on Maddix Monday,
6:45
Speaker 1: you might pull YouTube servers off.
6:46
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying, Bro, You're actually right, dude, that
6:49
Speaker 3: I feel like if we pulled in Dano to the
6:51
Speaker 3: to the Maddix Mondays, I feel like that that'd go crazy.
6:54
Speaker 2: So we should do that's the idea.
6:56
Speaker 1: Absolutely. We Uh, what made you want to make music?
7:01
Speaker 1: As you listen to other Obviously you said you know it.
7:04
Speaker 1: Being in the family is obviously in influence, But what
7:07
Speaker 1: are some artists today that you're like, yeah, I love
7:10
Speaker 1: them and I love how they do it.
7:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I also say this a lot. My
7:13
Speaker 3: sister she is She's twelve years older than me, right,
7:16
Speaker 3: and she's actually one of the biggest influences for me
7:18
Speaker 3: because when I was a young kid, I would be
7:20
Speaker 3: in her car and she would play like one direction
7:22
Speaker 3: in Bieber and like, you know, like everybody like the
7:26
Speaker 3: the like Aldin and just I mean everyone, and I
7:29
Speaker 3: would just get influences from that when I started making music.
7:32
Speaker 3: Right now, I'd probably say two of my biggest influences
7:35
Speaker 3: are probably like probably Morgan and Bieber. Morgan Bieber, I
7:38
Speaker 3: get that a lot. Like that's actually one like a
7:40
Speaker 3: nickname that people call me is like like that type
7:42
Speaker 3: of thing. It's like a young Morgan Bieber and it's
7:44
Speaker 3: it's crazy that I would get, you know, even compared
7:47
Speaker 3: to those guys absolutely legends. But yeah, those are probably
7:50
Speaker 3: like two of my biggest influences when it comes to
7:52
Speaker 3: my music and just on stage and that kind of thing.
7:54
Speaker 1: Have you met either of them yet?
7:55
Speaker 2: No? I have not.
7:56
Speaker 3: I really want to, I really I really want to.
7:59
Speaker 3: They seem like cool guys and I think it'd be sick.
8:01
Speaker 3: I have met another one of my influences names Whyte Flores,
8:04
Speaker 3: a really good guy.
8:05
Speaker 2: Actually played on stage with him.
8:07
Speaker 1: Texas country guy.
8:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, big Texas country guys from Oklahoma. He's got
8:11
Speaker 3: that like kind of like dirt road like that type
8:13
Speaker 3: of that type of sound.
8:14
Speaker 2: He's really cool.
8:15
Speaker 3: Uh. Played on stage with him during CMA Fest, which
8:18
Speaker 3: was actually really cool and I got to meet him
8:20
Speaker 3: and just talk talk guitars and stuff that type of.
8:23
Speaker 1: So, uh, making music and putting it out is one thing,
8:27
Speaker 1: but creating your own music is a whole different beast.
8:30
Speaker 1: At what point you were like, hey, this is dope,
8:31
Speaker 1: but like I'm tired of doing other I wanted to
8:34
Speaker 1: do my songs. Yeah, at what point did that Did
8:37
Speaker 1: that turn into that?
8:38
Speaker 2: All? Right?
8:38
Speaker 3: So? I mean yeah, Like throughout, like the very beginning
8:41
Speaker 3: of like my TikTok career and all that kind of stuff,
8:43
Speaker 3: I was doing primarily covers and that kind of stuff.
8:46
Speaker 3: I was just covering other artists and covering other songs
8:48
Speaker 3: that I thought were legit. And then I got picked
8:50
Speaker 3: up by these two wonderful managers, Nick Barr and Eddie Franzoni,
8:53
Speaker 3: and they got me down here in Nashville for the
8:55
Speaker 3: first time. I grew up in Nashville, but then when
8:58
Speaker 3: I was about seven, I moved to Birmingham and that's
9:01
Speaker 3: and I just moved back in like September. But yeah,
9:04
Speaker 3: they got me down here from my first ever studio session,
9:06
Speaker 3: and I got to I got to see what it's
9:08
Speaker 3: like to actually write a song and do that kind
9:10
Speaker 3: of stuff. See what how like the process of it
9:12
Speaker 3: with these professional writers, and it's it's pretty it's pretty legit.
9:15
Speaker 3: And once I heard my song for the first time,
9:16
Speaker 3: I was like, man, that's what I want to do,
9:18
Speaker 3: you know, kind of like you said, I would rather
9:20
Speaker 3: play my songs.
9:21
Speaker 1: You know, what was the first song you recorded of yours?
9:24
Speaker 3: Oh, dude, that's a that's a that's a tough question.
9:27
Speaker 3: I'd say, I think it's actually it's it was a song.
9:31
Speaker 3: It had Tennessee in the title. It was like you,
9:35
Speaker 3: me and Tennessee. May have been the word I can't
9:37
Speaker 3: I think, I don't. I can't remember, but that was
9:38
Speaker 3: may have been the first one. I can't remember, but
9:42
Speaker 3: it was.
9:42
Speaker 1: It was.
9:42
Speaker 3: It was something very similar to that. It was a
9:44
Speaker 3: pretty sick song. We thought it was a hit bro.
9:46
Speaker 3: I thought it was awesome. Dude off for Rip, I
9:48
Speaker 3: was like.
9:48
Speaker 2: Man, this is sick.
9:49
Speaker 3: I'm I'm releasing it tomorrow. But that that idea got
9:53
Speaker 3: shot down really fast.
9:55
Speaker 2: But nah, it was sick song. It was something like that,
9:57
Speaker 2: probably like you me and Tennessee. I think it was
9:59
Speaker 2: something like that.
10:00
Speaker 1: What is the process like for you now that you're
10:04
Speaker 1: starting to see I'd imagine you see music differently once
10:06
Speaker 1: you're working with writers and you're in a real studio
10:09
Speaker 1: versus just hit and record on TikTok, right, turn it
10:11
Speaker 1: into a full career. What's something that goes into creating
10:15
Speaker 1: music that you would have never guessed?
10:17
Speaker 2: Really?
10:18
Speaker 3: Just how many minds come together to get through one idea.
10:21
Speaker 3: How long it actually takes to write a good song
10:25
Speaker 3: is way longer than I thought. I thought, like with
10:27
Speaker 3: these professional writers, you have to think they're humans, they're
10:30
Speaker 3: not robots and just come up with.
10:31
Speaker 2: Hits all the time.
10:32
Speaker 3: But I mean, I'm playing with these I mean great guys,
10:34
Speaker 3: and it's taken us like hours upon end, hours upon
10:37
Speaker 3: end to come up with like a chorus, and it's
10:39
Speaker 3: the craziest thing to me. But once you get it,
10:41
Speaker 3: it's just like an an uncomparable feelings. It's awesome once
10:45
Speaker 3: you get a good song and once you vibe with
10:47
Speaker 3: it and record it for the first time. Hearing a
10:49
Speaker 3: good song on your voice is like, it's like unmatched feeling.
10:52
Speaker 2: It's so cool. Yeah.
10:54
Speaker 1: What It's funny because talking to other artists throughout Nashville,
10:57
Speaker 1: when you sit down for a rite or even just
10:59
Speaker 1: to brainstorm, it's definitely like a no idea is a
11:02
Speaker 1: bad idea, think yeah, but you still feel like I'm
11:05
Speaker 1: not gonna say that I don't want to sound I.
11:07
Speaker 2: Still feel that way sometimes.
11:08
Speaker 3: I still feel like like every now and then, I'll
11:11
Speaker 3: think of something and then I'm like, should I really
11:13
Speaker 3: say this? Because this is kind of dumb the more
11:14
Speaker 3: than I think about it, you know, But yeah, no
11:17
Speaker 3: idea is about it. I mean, you're absolutely right, one
11:19
Speaker 3: hundred percent right. You can throw out I mean anything
11:22
Speaker 3: when you're in those writing rooms and sometimes they're like okay,
11:25
Speaker 3: and sometimes you know it's it's great. But me, just
11:29
Speaker 3: as someone who gets in there all the time, I'm
11:31
Speaker 3: still on that level kind of like embarrassment.
11:33
Speaker 2: I'm like, should I say this?
11:34
Speaker 3: You know? But I know I have to get past
11:36
Speaker 3: that sometime, but right now I'm still like questioning myself.
11:40
Speaker 1: Well, so let me ask this then, what is the
11:42
Speaker 1: idea you were hypist about that you shared and they
11:45
Speaker 1: were like, what else you got?
11:46
Speaker 2: Dude?
11:47
Speaker 3: All right, exactly, dude. I've actually had one moment like that.
11:49
Speaker 3: In particular. It was one of my first ever rights
11:52
Speaker 3: and we were writing this song. I think it was
11:55
Speaker 3: like called like I think it's called Grandpa's Boots.
11:58
Speaker 1: It was.
11:58
Speaker 2: It was really really good song. I love that song.
12:00
Speaker 3: It's one of my favorites to date. And I'm throwing
12:02
Speaker 3: out an idea that's just like really ultra specific to me,
12:08
Speaker 3: Like I can't remember exactly what I said, but it
12:10
Speaker 3: was like really really specific.
12:12
Speaker 2: Those are not really relatable the other.
12:13
Speaker 3: People that are, like, okay, so I may do it
12:16
Speaker 3: broaden that a little bit. It was like it was
12:18
Speaker 3: funny because I'm thrown out ideas like exact things that
12:22
Speaker 3: happened to me only and I'm just and I was like, well,
12:25
Speaker 3: I guess you're right, you know, I should probably make
12:27
Speaker 3: it a little bit more relatable.
12:28
Speaker 2: But it was cool.
12:30
Speaker 1: Out of the songs you've been able to create already,
12:32
Speaker 1: we're about to talk about a brand new song that
12:34
Speaker 1: we're gonna hear on the radio today. Yes, what are
12:37
Speaker 1: what are the songs that mean the most to you
12:39
Speaker 1: early in your career that you're like, man, I'm so
12:41
Speaker 1: proud of this. So I know that the pool is shallow,
12:44
Speaker 1: so far right for what's available for fans to consume,
12:47
Speaker 1: but out of those, you're like, man, this one is
12:49
Speaker 1: like close to my heart.
12:50
Speaker 3: I mean, like the one I just said Grandpa's boots,
12:52
Speaker 3: just because it is so close to me. And I
12:55
Speaker 3: know I was kind of making fun of myself for
12:56
Speaker 3: doing like the specific thing, but I mean it's just
12:59
Speaker 3: a very relatable song to me, and I feel like
13:02
Speaker 3: it's only a song that I can sing because it's
13:05
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just I mean it's I wore my
13:07
Speaker 3: grandpa's boots to the studio that day, so that's I mean,
13:10
Speaker 3: that's really why. But that one's one of the coolest ones,
13:12
Speaker 3: one of the coolest rights I ever got to do.
13:14
Speaker 3: I mean, all songs that I have out right now,
13:16
Speaker 3: I'm super proud of just because, like at fourteen and
13:19
Speaker 3: fifteen years old, a lot of people like they kind
13:21
Speaker 3: of like diss you a little bit for like, yeah,
13:23
Speaker 3: you're a kid that type of thing, and I feel
13:26
Speaker 3: like once I put after I put out music and
13:28
Speaker 3: showed people like that, I like to actually do this.
13:32
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not just I'm not kind of like
13:34
Speaker 3: playing around or anything like that. I feel like people
13:37
Speaker 3: taking more seriously is really cool. And just seeing all
13:40
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff go out and the fans loving it,
13:42
Speaker 3: it's just it's I mean, it's the proudest moment ever.
13:44
Speaker 3: Just seeing seeing those songs on TikTok and people making
13:47
Speaker 3: dances and all that kind of stuff.
13:48
Speaker 2: It just makes me. It makes me feel great.
13:51
Speaker 1: It's awesome social media, especially when you get to a
13:53
Speaker 1: spot where you I think you have. Last time I
13:56
Speaker 1: checked one of the social media platforms, you're almost at
13:58
Speaker 1: like a million. I think that might have been on Instagram.
14:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, on Instagram I almost had a million.
14:02
Speaker 3: On TikTok, I'm like three point something million, and then
14:05
Speaker 3: on YouTube I'm almost at a million also, Yeah, in a.
14:08
Speaker 1: Year, which is congratulations because that's so much because that
14:11
Speaker 1: means number one, you're you're doing what you're supposed to
14:14
Speaker 1: be doing with your life, and number two, you're grinding
14:16
Speaker 1: because I'm no.
14:18
Speaker 2: It's not easy.
14:19
Speaker 3: My content managers on my butt all the time, always
14:22
Speaker 3: on my tail man, and I'm always making these videos
14:24
Speaker 3: twenty four to seven.
14:25
Speaker 2: But I love it. I love it.
14:27
Speaker 1: The social media in general is a two sided sword, right,
14:35
Speaker 1: because it's like, oh, it's great and it's doing all
14:36
Speaker 1: these things, but also it gives people access exactly that
14:40
Speaker 1: to make a comment that can shake you, of course, right,
14:43
Speaker 1: And that happens to people that have five followers, that
14:45
Speaker 1: happens to people that have five hundred million followers exactly.
14:48
Speaker 1: So how do you, especially as a young man, especially
14:50
Speaker 1: being brand new to this, how do you react to
14:53
Speaker 1: negative comments and not let them shake shake you?
14:57
Speaker 3: I mean, I just pray about them. You know, I
14:59
Speaker 3: grew up up in a Christian household. Me and my
15:01
Speaker 3: mom and my dad were very you know, prominent on
15:04
Speaker 3: that as a young child, and I just, I mean,
15:07
Speaker 3: I feel I know that deep down really that they
15:10
Speaker 3: probably really don't mean it, and you know, I just
15:12
Speaker 3: I just pray for them and all that kind of stuff,
15:14
Speaker 3: and just I don't I really try to not let
15:15
Speaker 3: it affect me a whole lot because I know that,
15:18
Speaker 3: you know, at the end of the day, it's just
15:20
Speaker 3: like it really doesn't matter because you can have you know,
15:23
Speaker 3: five hundred Maddox You're awesome comments, and then you have
15:26
Speaker 3: one Maddix you stink comment, And it's just that's the
15:28
Speaker 3: one that sticks with you and just it stinks that
15:31
Speaker 3: that's the way it is, but it is. And I
15:33
Speaker 3: just pray for him and all that kind of stuff
15:35
Speaker 3: and hope they, you know, find find their right path
15:38
Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff and figure out that,
15:40
Speaker 3: you know, if you're not going to say like the
15:41
Speaker 3: Golden rule, you know, and in elementary school that they
15:44
Speaker 3: have hung up on the bullets and board, if you're
15:46
Speaker 3: not going to say anything nice, just don't say anything.
15:48
Speaker 2: Keep it to yourself. Just keep on scrolling. Man.
15:50
Speaker 3: But you know, if they do say it, I really
15:52
Speaker 3: just I just pray for them and hopefully you know,
15:54
Speaker 3: they get they get all good and you know, hopefully
15:57
Speaker 3: take it down or something like that.
15:58
Speaker 1: But that's the same person asking for a selfie when
16:01
Speaker 1: they catch you at the grocery store. You can't tell
16:03
Speaker 1: you that, right.
16:04
Speaker 3: And yeah, and I know, and I'm never going to
16:06
Speaker 3: turn those down, even if it's like a guy that
16:09
Speaker 3: I know said it, right, I go to the grocery store,
16:11
Speaker 3: I know, he commented on my video that I stink.
16:14
Speaker 3: I'm just still gonna go what's up, man, you know
16:16
Speaker 3: that kind of thing, because you know, that's just the
16:17
Speaker 3: way I.
16:18
Speaker 1: Was like, Yeah, it turns out I don't huh.
16:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm actually a really good smelling guy.
16:23
Speaker 2: I put on a decent amount of cologne. You know.
16:27
Speaker 1: What is uh, what's something that you hold close to
16:29
Speaker 1: your heart is a good memory so far because again,
16:32
Speaker 1: we catch up with while you think about that, we
16:34
Speaker 1: catch up with a lot of artists who don't get
16:36
Speaker 1: to enjoy the journey because literally you have to think
16:40
Speaker 1: ten steps ahead of where you are now. So it's
16:42
Speaker 1: hard to be like in this moment. Matter of fact,
16:44
Speaker 1: we just caught up with Landy Wilson a couple of
16:46
Speaker 1: days ago, and she's like, I have learned to finally
16:51
Speaker 1: like enjoy this and worry about that later and stop
16:54
Speaker 1: worrying about that. It's like, just be here. So how
16:56
Speaker 1: are you making sure with how quick this is all
16:58
Speaker 1: exploded for you? Making sure that like you're enjoying.
17:02
Speaker 2: Me really enjoying it.
17:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean just one of the things that helps
17:06
Speaker 3: me with that is just staying with staying around people
17:09
Speaker 3: that I know were with me for the right reasons
17:12
Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff. Just staying close to
17:13
Speaker 3: my family, staying close with like really close people to me,
17:16
Speaker 3: and they always make sure I'm in the moment, you know,
17:19
Speaker 3: because when I'm around like these other people are only
17:21
Speaker 3: worried about, you know, the wrong things. They always want
17:24
Speaker 3: me to keep keep thinking ahead and all that kind
17:26
Speaker 3: of stuff. And I feel like when I'm around people
17:29
Speaker 3: that really are with me for the right reasons, they
17:31
Speaker 3: always keep me grounded and keep me in the moment.
17:33
Speaker 3: And it's like badics, what you did was really cool,
17:35
Speaker 3: like that type of thing. When I'm just I'm so
17:38
Speaker 3: like crazy, like dialed into the next thing, you know,
17:41
Speaker 3: I can't really think about it, kind of like, I mean,
17:43
Speaker 3: I just played I sold out show in Brooklyn Bowl
17:47
Speaker 3: at Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville, and it was I mean,
17:49
Speaker 3: it was like a year ago. I'm playing at a
17:52
Speaker 3: winery for like four people who are not even like,
17:55
Speaker 3: you know, no clue who I am. And there's exactly
17:58
Speaker 3: two of our parents, my grandparents. It's in the other
18:00
Speaker 3: girl that's sitting in the back is talking about her wedding,
18:03
Speaker 3: so you know, I mean they're planning their wedding. So
18:05
Speaker 3: it's it's really you. Just I'm so very grateful that,
18:08
Speaker 3: you know. I just I just want to I just
18:10
Speaker 3: want to enjoy it as best as I can. Because like,
18:12
Speaker 3: right after I got on stage, I was like, Okay,
18:14
Speaker 3: what's next. So I got to make all these videos
18:15
Speaker 3: and all that stuff, and they're like, Madix, you're good.
18:17
Speaker 1: Bro.
18:17
Speaker 3: It's like I was super super cool, and I was like, yeah,
18:20
Speaker 3: I guess you're right, you know.
18:21
Speaker 1: And let me say this about that Brooklyn Bull show
18:23
Speaker 1: because we were lucky enough to be there. It was
18:24
Speaker 1: a fun show. You did a great job that so much. Uh,
18:27
Speaker 1: stop throwing stuff on stage. I saw people talking like
18:31
Speaker 1: friendship bracelets. One of them dang there hits you in
18:33
Speaker 1: the front, y'all.
18:35
Speaker 2: Dude, It's it's crazy.
18:37
Speaker 3: I love it, but they're they're I have very passionate fans,
18:40
Speaker 3: and I I couldn't ask. I have the best fans
18:43
Speaker 3: in the entire world. And I'm on, Like I remember
18:45
Speaker 3: I was playing in Tuscaloos ad I sold out show
18:47
Speaker 3: there and they just start chucking their phones and I'm like, Yo,
18:50
Speaker 3: your mom's not gonna like that later. Your mom is
18:53
Speaker 3: gonna be really mad at you if I step on
18:55
Speaker 3: your phone, you know, and uh, they're like, I'm just
18:58
Speaker 3: I really do appreciate it, and I'm like, man, I'll
19:00
Speaker 3: try to make all these videos off on stage as
19:02
Speaker 3: much as I can.
19:03
Speaker 2: But like, please don't throw your phones. I don't want
19:04
Speaker 2: your mom.
19:04
Speaker 3: To get mad at me, you know that type of thing.
19:07
Speaker 2: But no, I love it.
19:08
Speaker 3: I'll pick up I'll pick up the wristbands and put
19:11
Speaker 3: them all over my wrist anyway. I love it, even
19:13
Speaker 3: if they hit me, you know. I just I'm so
19:15
Speaker 3: grateful for my friends fans, And I try to say
19:17
Speaker 3: this as much as I can. Like I said it earlier,
19:20
Speaker 3: I really wouldn't be here talking to you if it
19:21
Speaker 3: wasn't for them. So I really just try to take
19:24
Speaker 3: in every moment I can with them.
19:25
Speaker 2: They're awesome.
19:26
Speaker 1: Some fans don't know the word boundary. I don't know
19:32
Speaker 1: that you are. You are a human just like they are. Right,
19:36
Speaker 1: what has been a fan encounter And you don't have
19:38
Speaker 1: to say the city or who?
19:40
Speaker 3: Dad's already laughing, nos.
19:43
Speaker 1: So what's a fan encounter that you had to be like, hey,
19:46
Speaker 1: whoa that it was either scary or like.
19:48
Speaker 2: Just just like probably it was actually a mom.
19:52
Speaker 3: It was a mom I can't remember exactly where it was.
19:55
Speaker 3: And no Shade, no hate. I mean, it's completely fine.
19:58
Speaker 3: But she asked me who I was voting for, and
20:01
Speaker 3: I was just like, so, I am currently fourteen years old.
20:05
Speaker 3: I cannot vote. I'm not sure you're aware of that.
20:08
Speaker 2: But she asked me.
20:10
Speaker 3: I was just like, Maddox batchin, you know, that's who
20:12
Speaker 3: I'm voting for twenty thirty five.
20:14
Speaker 2: I'll actually not even be old enough then, how old. Well,
20:17
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm voting for myself though me. You know,
20:20
Speaker 2: I don't know. But she asked me that, and I
20:22
Speaker 2: was just like.
20:22
Speaker 3: Huh, I don't know how to answer that.
20:27
Speaker 1: I don't know who will be running exactly.
20:29
Speaker 2: I don't even know. I have no clue what's going
20:31
Speaker 2: on in the world. I'm just worried about, you know,
20:33
Speaker 2: girls and all that kind of stuff.
20:38
Speaker 1: That's I did not think the story would come up
20:39
Speaker 1: from a mom.
20:41
Speaker 2: It was crazy. It was nuts. But no Shade, it's
20:44
Speaker 2: completely fine. I don't care.
20:46
Speaker 1: The song is out now talk about the It has
20:51
Speaker 1: to be so frustrating because again we catch up with
20:53
Speaker 1: so many artists. You create this song, it gets mixed, mastered,
20:56
Speaker 1: all that you know behind the scenes stuff that fans
20:58
Speaker 1: have no clue what's even going down.
21:00
Speaker 2: Yeah.
21:00
Speaker 1: Uh, and then you have to just sit. Yeah, and
21:03
Speaker 1: not just not just this single, but like anytime, because
21:06
Speaker 1: there's the record label processes, your management process, there's a
21:08
Speaker 1: release process. Pick a date. Does that date get in
21:11
Speaker 1: the way of anything else?
21:12
Speaker 3: Like, it's no, it's a it's a long process. And
21:15
Speaker 3: you record a song that you love and you just
21:17
Speaker 3: want to release it immediately, but then you have to
21:19
Speaker 3: slow down and think, like, oh, I guess they're right.
21:21
Speaker 3: You know, you really got to market it and all
21:22
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. So it actually does is decent,
21:24
Speaker 3: you know.
21:25
Speaker 1: So there is a reason it's called I Don't Like
21:27
Speaker 1: You Anymore. You played it at the Brooklyn Bull Show.
21:29
Speaker 1: I heard you did it on a Maddox Was it Maddix?
21:33
Speaker 1: What has been the hold up in getting this out?
21:35
Speaker 3: M hm?
21:36
Speaker 1: And getting because you wanted to put the video out
21:38
Speaker 1: at the same time, right, Originally you had at the
21:40
Speaker 1: end of it was at the end of this month.
21:42
Speaker 1: Now you had to push it.
21:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, So.
21:46
Speaker 3: It's actually the one of the one of the main
21:48
Speaker 3: reasons was actually the wildfires out in Los Angeles. A
21:52
Speaker 3: big part of my a big portion of like my
21:54
Speaker 3: my record label. I'm signing with Warner Records and We'rener
21:56
Speaker 3: Records LA, and a big portion of all those guys
21:58
Speaker 3: in my team and my manager and actually live out there.
22:01
Speaker 3: So I was completely fine with postponing the release just
22:04
Speaker 3: because I just wanted to make sure they were all safe.
22:06
Speaker 3: I have a big, big, big portion of like my
22:09
Speaker 3: team and all that kind of those guys out there,
22:11
Speaker 3: so I just wanted to make sure they're safe, all
22:12
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. That's my number one priority, make
22:15
Speaker 3: sure they're all good. Before I didn't want. I thought
22:17
Speaker 3: it'd be kind of like almost kind of selfish to
22:20
Speaker 3: try to release that song in the heap of them,
22:23
Speaker 3: you know, packing, you know, evacuate from their homes. So
22:26
Speaker 3: I had no problem, you know, postponing the release to
22:30
Speaker 3: this month and earlier early this month is completely fine
22:33
Speaker 3: with me.
22:33
Speaker 1: So, yeah, did you get to finish the video? Oh?
22:36
Speaker 3: No, Actually, I actually never went out there the school
22:39
Speaker 3: that we were originally planning on shooting at, which was
22:42
Speaker 3: where like some legendary movies like Team Wolf from like
22:45
Speaker 3: the eighties, I think from the eighties, eight ers or
22:48
Speaker 3: nineties whatever. But with that, I was filmed. It was
22:51
Speaker 3: the film that that's going actually burnt down. So yeah,
22:54
Speaker 3: it's really tragic, and I'm praying for all those guys
22:56
Speaker 3: out there, praying for all the firefighters and all those guys.
22:59
Speaker 3: I know they're doing the best. So uh yeah, and
23:01
Speaker 3: yeah that school got burned down. We actually never ended
23:03
Speaker 3: up going, but we're going. We were gonna go. I
23:06
Speaker 3: think I think we're going to. We're leaving in the
23:08
Speaker 3: mornings to go out there to film, so yeah, there
23:10
Speaker 3: you go.
23:10
Speaker 1: I gotta get it all done because it's both coming
23:12
Speaker 1: out at the same time, right exactly, sir, Have you
23:15
Speaker 1: had to focus too much on the music video stuff
23:17
Speaker 1: or you just let like people do it for you.
23:19
Speaker 3: No, I mean a little bit, because all right, this
23:22
Speaker 3: time this is actually kind of funny. So this time
23:24
Speaker 3: they're making me dance. I just want to say, I'm
23:26
Speaker 3: not a dancer. I am very uncoordinated. I'm all right,
23:30
Speaker 3: I'm coordinated because I play like sports and all that
23:32
Speaker 3: kind of stuff, but like when it comes to dancing, bro,
23:34
Speaker 3: I'm a new but like I have no clue what
23:35
Speaker 3: I'm doing. None, none, And I'm with these choreographers and
23:38
Speaker 3: they're like, okay, you know I'm doing this stuff and
23:41
Speaker 3: they're like, this is kind of I'm just like, all right, bro,
23:44
Speaker 3: I have no clue what I'm doing, but I'm pretty
23:45
Speaker 3: I'm pretty excited to do the dancing thing.
23:47
Speaker 2: I think it'll be cool.
23:48
Speaker 3: We got a pretty good concept going for this music video,
23:51
Speaker 3: so I think it's gonna be legit.
23:52
Speaker 1: When you you you brought up the Morgan Bieber thing,
23:54
Speaker 1: and it's funny because if somebody says something to me,
23:57
Speaker 1: because a lot of your your early hype feels like
24:01
Speaker 1: when Justin Bieber came out because he got on YouTube
24:04
Speaker 1: grind it that way was discovered. You got on social media,
24:06
Speaker 1: grinded discovered, the music was there, the following was there.
24:09
Speaker 1: The only thing that was missing was like the record
24:11
Speaker 1: label in the airplay, and like, now that's coming right.
24:16
Speaker 1: How do you, through the creation process make sure like, no, this,
24:20
Speaker 1: I gotta do this way? Maddox wants to I don't.
24:22
Speaker 1: That's too much like Bieber, that's too much like Morgan,
24:25
Speaker 1: that's too much. How do you how do you make
24:26
Speaker 1: sure to like continue to do it your way?
24:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I actually like with the people around me.
24:33
Speaker 3: I asked my dad a lot about this kind of
24:35
Speaker 3: stuff is just because like I don't want to straight
24:38
Speaker 3: up copy these guys.
24:39
Speaker 2: There are absolutely legends Ben. I have so much respect
24:41
Speaker 2: for him, but I really don't.
24:42
Speaker 3: I want to do it my own way, kind of
24:43
Speaker 3: like you're saying, and I just want to like I'll
24:45
Speaker 3: take bits and pieces from both of these guys and
24:48
Speaker 3: how they came up and all that kind of stuff,
24:49
Speaker 3: like with more with uh with bieber On, like the
24:52
Speaker 3: YouTube thing and just you know, grinding out the social
24:55
Speaker 3: media thing and getting picked up. Yeah, of course I
24:58
Speaker 3: wanted to follow that path because you know, I was
25:01
Speaker 3: like one of my only I was the only option
25:02
Speaker 3: because I was doing TikTok.
25:03
Speaker 2: But you know, I didn't want to straight up copy.
25:06
