- 3:40Speaker 6: I became like so good at a young age, you
- 3:43Speaker 6: know what I'm saying.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Taking what they did in now, I felt find it
- 3:47Speaker 3: so interesting. You know when you went to LA and
- 3:50Speaker 3: you got you and your was it you and your
- 3:52Speaker 3: cousin who went to LA and was like, I'm just
- 3:54Speaker 3: gonna do whatever to get in this industry. Can you
- 3:56Speaker 3: tell a brief story of that about how you got
- 3:58Speaker 3: into the industry?
- 4:00Speaker 5: Uh?
- 4:01Speaker 6: La, Me and my cousin and my brother we went
- 4:03Speaker 6: to LA probably like four or five thousand.
- 4:06Speaker 4: Then we paid like two months rent, and then it.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Was just that was it and you ain't had nothing else.
- 4:12Speaker 6: It was like because rent, I think the rent apart
- 4:14Speaker 6: the Jones was like fifteen hundred play like two months,
- 4:18Speaker 6: I mean probably like two thousand left. Let's just see
- 4:21Speaker 6: what happened, you know what I'm saying. You know, coming
- 4:23Speaker 6: from Philly, you look at La like some big like
- 4:26Speaker 6: some big shit.
- 4:27Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 4:27Speaker 6: Like when we get out, they're about to snap, You
- 4:29Speaker 6: about to meet somebody to get more money.
- 4:31Speaker 4: That's what we're thinking, you know what I'm saying.
- 4:32Speaker 6: So we was fucked up out there, Like end of
- 4:35Speaker 6: the first month, I ain't got caps. So it kind
- 4:38Speaker 6: of like taught me like don't do nothing without having
- 4:40Speaker 6: like a plan to it.
- 4:42Speaker 1: So what happened, Like what happened after the month two?
- 4:45Speaker 4: Uh, we just kept I stayed there. The rent was due.
- 4:49Speaker 6: Shit probably say like four or four months, you know
- 4:52Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like behind rent two months and then
- 4:56Speaker 6: like I remember they had like a revolt summit. Did
- 4:58Speaker 6: he had a revolt summing in La. I was gonna
- 5:00Speaker 6: go back home, but I like stayed an extra week
- 5:03Speaker 6: to go to every Vault summit. I asked my cousin,
- 5:06Speaker 6: let me hold a hundred for the ticket, and then
- 5:08Speaker 6: like they had like a little line.
- 5:09Speaker 4: Where he could play music for the ain't rst. I
- 5:12Speaker 4: played my music.
- 5:13Speaker 6: Like that was like the first time I met a
- 5:16Speaker 6: nigga that cut. You know what I'm saying, the industry guy,
- 5:18Speaker 6: the industry guy. That I could get money from him,
- 5:20Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Because he had like two artists,
- 5:22Speaker 6: two three artists. So I'm thinking, like, all right, maybe
- 5:25Speaker 6: I could write for him, write for two of his artists,
- 5:27Speaker 6: maybe get a little check, you know what I'm saying.
- 5:29Speaker 6: So I just went back home to Philly and just

- 8:52Speaker 3: Turn being on that Grammy stage. And that was a Grammys.
- 8:56Speaker 3: I felt like that went down in history because we
- 8:59Speaker 3: had the celebration of hip hop and it was just
- 9:01Speaker 3: so many eyes on that Grammys night, Like no, like,
- 9:05Speaker 3: we had so many black people there. It was ridiculous.
- 9:08Speaker 3: How was it, you know, being a part of something
- 9:10Speaker 3: so special and then being able to be alongside jay
- 9:13Speaker 3: Z at the table.
- 9:15Speaker 6: They told me I was performing like two weeks before
- 9:17Speaker 6: the Grammys, so I was like nervous as ship, Like
- 9:21Speaker 6: I couldn't even sleep like because I was like, I
- 9:24Speaker 6: just I'm like, bro, I could be the one to
- 9:26Speaker 6: mess up this performance because it's probably like my second
- 9:30Speaker 6: performance as an artist in general, Like no, I performed
- 9:34Speaker 6: a couple of times like in the hood, but I
- 9:36Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, it's like my second big one
- 9:39Speaker 6: type shit.
- 9:40Speaker 4: So it's like I'm nervous as hell, so but.
- 9:42Speaker 3: You look comfortable though.
- 9:43Speaker 4: Yeah, I was.
- 9:44Speaker 6: I boke the nerves during that During that day, I
- 9:47Speaker 6: ain't gonna lie, especially like it's a video on my TikTok.
- 9:50Speaker 6: Cali came to the my trailer and he put the
- 9:53Speaker 6: instrumental in my ear. That's when before we hopped on stage.
- 9:56Speaker 6: I don't know why he did it, just probably checked
- 9:58Speaker 6: my temperature, like he brought all the people, put the
- 10:01Speaker 6: instrumental in my ear to see if I was ready,
- 10:03Speaker 6: and I started singing out it was like you ready,
- 10:06Speaker 6: And that's how well on stage.
- 10:08Speaker 5: We'll be right back with more of a Baller Alert Show.

- 10:20Speaker 6: tune into the Baller Alert Show.
- 10:23Speaker 1: You really have been through a lot in a short
- 10:26Speaker 1: period of time, which usually an artist it takes on
- 10:29Speaker 1: a longer period of time. But I know that could
- 10:32Speaker 1: affect people mentally. Mentally when all this was happening, where
- 10:38Speaker 1: are you, like, Cause it's it has to be surreal
- 10:41Speaker 1: for you to have three thousand followers, but then now
- 10:44Speaker 1: you're on the stage at the Grammys with Jay Z.
- 10:48Speaker 1: So mentally, how are you dealing with this? Because I
- 10:52Speaker 1: know your phone is going crazy, people are calling you
- 10:55Speaker 1: every day. You kind of still could be in Philly
- 10:58Speaker 1: mode a little bit. You know what I'm saying. You
- 11:00Speaker 1: still could be in in that space that you were
- 11:03Speaker 1: a couple of months prior. How are you dealing with
- 11:06Speaker 1: all of this mentally?
- 11:08Speaker 4: I'm dealing with it? Good Bro?
- 11:09Speaker 1: What did you do? Did you like talk to somebody.
- 11:12Speaker 6: Or yeah I'm cool, pray, yeah, I mom dad a
- 11:17Speaker 6: different guy? Like I be chilling, bro, like me like
- 11:21Speaker 6: I'll be chilling so I got like a small circle
- 11:24Speaker 6: because I like family.
- 11:26Speaker 4: I don't really like god friends.
- 11:27Speaker 1: What do you vent to if you have to vent
- 11:29Speaker 1: to somebody my family?
- 11:31Speaker 6: Probably my cousin, you know the cousin. Now you know
- 11:33Speaker 6: what I'm saying. And this shit really get to my head,
- 11:37Speaker 6: Like that's good because it can. It can even me
- 11:40Speaker 6: like I don't really like industry, ship, I don't really
- 11:43Speaker 6: like shit. Really don't excite me, Bro, you like parties
- 11:48Speaker 6: and ship, it really don't excite me. I don't want
- 11:50Speaker 6: to be around these people like how other artists like yo, Like,
- 11:54Speaker 6: so I.
- 11:54Speaker 4: Really be I got a good mindset, bro, and I
- 11:56Speaker 4: just be chilling.
- 11:57Speaker 3: Going back in that time when you were around you know,
- 12:00Speaker 3: the calends and all that. What was some of the
- 12:01Speaker 3: advice that you were that they were giving you?
- 12:04Speaker 6: Kyler probably give me the most advice. He was just saying,
- 12:07Speaker 6: like the type of music I make. It was just
- 12:12Speaker 6: telling me, like, don't be scared with this shit, like
- 12:16Speaker 6: because like the way I came out, most people would
- 12:19Speaker 6: have been like a right, let me play like the
- 12:21Speaker 6: mysterious way, Like you know what I'm saying, like the
- 12:24Speaker 6: cool way if you understand what I'm saying, you know,
- 12:27Speaker 6: I'm artists that don't.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Post much and show they face much.
- 12:31Speaker 6: And I could have did that at the Guy did
- 12:32Speaker 6: in Forever could have been the but Kyler was like,
- 12:36Speaker 6: trust me, bro, like show your face, like this music
- 12:39Speaker 6: you got, get in front of the people. You know
- 12:42Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Get on that stage, post every day.
- 12:44Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, do loud. You know what
- 12:46Speaker 6: I'm saying. So that was like the biggest advice I
- 12:48Speaker 6: got me going so crazy like through the year this
- 12:51Speaker 6: past year, like going on stages, doing performances and getting
- 12:55Speaker 6: in front of the people, making people feel me.
- 12:57Speaker 4: It just it just took me up another level.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Also taking it up another level. I'm sure when that
- 13:02Speaker 3: God Did check came in your your expenses can get
- 13:07Speaker 3: to another level check.
- 13:08Speaker 4: Yet, yeah that was a good check. Whatever, crazy check?
- 13:13Speaker 3: What'd you do?
- 13:13Speaker 1: So the Forever with Baby was a crazier check than
- 13:16Speaker 1: God did? Is it more so? Because you the negotiation
- 13:21Speaker 1: was it was just you a little baby and then
- 13:23Speaker 1: versus God did with Cali jay Z the whole nine.
- 13:26Speaker 4: I got good because I produce.
- 13:27Speaker 6: So it's like I'm getting a good product a lot
- 13:30Speaker 6: all my records because I produce everything, so you're getting
- 13:33Speaker 6: the producer check too, the writer check in the artist check.
- 13:36Speaker 3: Can you talk, Can you expound that a little bit
- 13:38Speaker 3: for the audience why it's important to be a part
- 13:41Speaker 3: of the writing process and production to get the most
- 13:44Speaker 3: out of your art.
- 13:45Speaker 6: I mean, if you can do it, I would tell
- 13:47Speaker 6: artists to do it because it's a different type of
- 13:50Speaker 6: a game you play, you know what I'm saying. Like
- 13:52Speaker 6: I'm seeing if I'm an artist, if you're an artists,
- 13:55Speaker 6: you're really not getting a lot of money unless you
- 13:59Speaker 6: doing you know what I'm saying, All your money really
- 14:02Speaker 6: going to the to the label, the people that you
- 14:04Speaker 6: signed to until you could get you know what I'm saying,
- 14:06Speaker 6: until you could recoup that deal.
- 14:08Speaker 1: Yea.
- 14:09Speaker 6: But me being a producer a writer that come with fees,
- 14:12Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, it's like, all right, I
- 14:14Speaker 6: need I want this, you know what I'm saying. That's
- 14:16Speaker 6: an advance, you know what I'm saying, And even a writer,
- 14:18Speaker 6: that's an advance. And even on the on the publishing side,
- 14:21Speaker 6: it's just it's just it's just I'll encourage every person
- 14:25Speaker 6: just learn how to write or produce.
- 14:27Speaker 4: It's more way, more money involved.
- 14:28Speaker 1: With what was the did you did you purchase something
- 14:32Speaker 1: dumb that you was like when you got the check,
- 14:34Speaker 1: it was like, damn, I shouldn't have did that.
- 14:36Speaker 6: No, I ain't get out of character. Yeah, I probably
