- 0:41Speaker 1: like you're more introspective on this album like you was.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Really like, I feel like you're going through like that
- 0:46Speaker 1: phase in your life where you know you're on a
- 0:49Speaker 1: different level, but you're still trying to keep it real
- 0:51Speaker 1: with the people who came up with you, so to speak. Really, yeah,
- 0:55Speaker 1: he said, I don't think about it. I think about it.
- 0:58Speaker 1: He's saying, I just kept a real myself. I ain't
- 1:01Speaker 1: listening to nobody, you know what I'm saying. I ain't
- 1:03Speaker 1: listening to the Late One. I have nobody in my ear. Usually,
- 1:06Speaker 1: you know, they talked to you about you need this
- 1:08Speaker 1: type of record, you need radio, you need this type
- 1:10Speaker 1: of man. I just say, I'm gonna do what I
- 1:11Speaker 1: want to do, you know what I mean, Because honestly,
- 1:14Speaker 1: the last year and a half, it was just you know,
- 1:17Speaker 1: I was in and our relationships doing all sources that
- 1:20Speaker 1: was being broadcasted. I felt like, creatively I was in
- 1:22Speaker 1: a hole, you know what I'm saying. I climbed myself up.
- 1:25Speaker 1: I said, y'all, I got a boss up, you know
- 1:27Speaker 1: what I mean. I felt the potential I had in myself,
- 1:30Speaker 1: and I feel like it wasn't being portrayed as that,
- 1:32Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I feel you spit,
- 1:34Speaker 1: but I don't feel they give you a credit for spitting. Yeah,
- 1:38Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, they talk about everybody else,
- 1:40Speaker 1: but they do not never say big show. That's what
- 1:42Speaker 1: I told you last time. You was like, no, I
- 1:44Speaker 1: think I get my credit but a little way, and
- 1:45Speaker 1: even saying no, no no, no, but I'm talking about but
- 1:47Speaker 1: this is like this is my ear. But little ain't
- 1:49Speaker 1: you don't get to shine you deserve. I don't think
- 1:51Speaker 1: Big Sean get enough shine, he said, because you don't
- 1:53Speaker 1: have enough tattoos or even yeah, man, I remember when
- 1:58Speaker 1: he did that verse. He called me right after like yo,
- 2:01Speaker 1: I meant every word because he was just talking about
- 2:04Speaker 1: even though he said I feel like Sean I don't
- 2:05Speaker 1: get enough shine. He said something about, um, just remember
- 2:10Speaker 1: your lines. And if he's running across cross the line
- 2:13Speaker 1: some of the time across with pride, that's real much
- 2:15Speaker 1: to remember that. If anybody remember you, then remember Raps
- 2:18Speaker 1: would just spit it back and hope somebody digging that
- 2:21Speaker 1: because so he called music's like, man, I'm in every
- 2:24Speaker 1: word of that, And I thought I respected him because
- 2:26Speaker 1: it's like I ain't signed a little Wayne. What I'm
- 2:27Speaker 1: saying for him to for another artist really just to
- 2:30Speaker 1: big up another artist like that, somebody you know what
- 2:33Speaker 1: I'm saying like him, So I was really it's the
- 2:36Speaker 1: truth though, because it's like it's like Drake Kendrick Cole
- 2:38Speaker 1: and then it's like a second tier with wile you
- 2:42Speaker 1: big you know what I'm saying. No, I think I'm
- 2:45Speaker 1: first tier. I'm bringing it, yeah, and then you guys
- 2:48Speaker 1: have a lot of collaborations together. I don't think I
- 2:50Speaker 1: mean I hop on the song with Eminem with jay Z,
- 2:55Speaker 1: with Drake or anybody, I hold my own, you know
- 2:57Speaker 1: what I'm saying. With Meek Mill whoever. I see. You
- 3:00Speaker 1: also recently announced the tour. You didn't announced it, but
- 3:03Speaker 1: Jay Cole is going on tour, and you're going on
- 3:05Speaker 1: tour with him. It's like featuring. Yeah, it's like a
- 3:07Speaker 1: cold hairline thing, but it's his tour obviously, you know

- 3:15Speaker 1: college tour before that. Then I'm doing a hairline and
- 3:17Speaker 1: tour after that. So next Plain but the only one,
- 3:19Speaker 1: the only show I'm not doing Jay Cole's Detroit because

- 3:37Speaker 1: we got to come out to that show. This ship
- 3:39Speaker 1: you promised the slash shit and you're flying us out privately,
- 3:42Speaker 1: but different things are different from him now. Okay, he's
- 3:45Speaker 1: a lot bigger than he was last year, so he's
- 3:47Speaker 1: not flying us nowhere. He's different. Y'all gonna be there,
- 3:50Speaker 1: break down, win, some lose something from me, because that's
- 3:52Speaker 1: the record. Sing like you questioned your life for a
- 3:54Speaker 1: lot when some loose and I wrote in two thousand
- 3:56Speaker 1: and twelve. I wrote the first verse in two thousand
- 3:58Speaker 1: and twelve, or the second verse twenty fourteen. So I
- 4:01Speaker 1: was going through just I had that song for so
- 4:04Speaker 1: long and to keep it real it was just too
- 4:08Speaker 1: like fresh. It was too and now it was too personal.
- 4:11Speaker 1: But it was just too fresh for me to touch
- 4:14Speaker 1: on that and for put it out. So I held
- 4:15Speaker 1: it and then you know, I felt like the time
- 4:18Speaker 1: was where I was about to Like twenty fourteen, I
- 4:21Speaker 1: was like, all right, I'm gonna drop it, and I
- 4:22Speaker 1: redid the second verse on it and just had it
- 4:25Speaker 1: in the stash, and it just fit this album so
- 4:27Speaker 1: well that I was like, I'm about to roll with it.
- 4:29Speaker 1: So he was questioning a lot of things, but that's
- 4:31Speaker 1: what I said, was it. I'm like, you know, you're
- 4:32Speaker 1: on another level, yeah, but you're still trying to keep
- 4:35Speaker 1: it real. With the hood, dudes in the hood maybe
- 4:37Speaker 1: saying like, oh, Sean, you you might owe me this,
- 4:39Speaker 1: so that yeah, I mean, that's what I was going
- 4:41Speaker 1: through at that time, not necessarily that specifically, but just
- 4:44Speaker 1: like I was questioning and just you know, I was
- 4:47Speaker 1: confused getting used to, you know, a certain life after
- 4:50Speaker 1: you used to something else. You know, I came from.
- 4:53Speaker 1: I didn't have nothing, you know what I mean in
- 4:54Speaker 1: the d and I wrote that song when things were
- 4:57Speaker 1: starting to get real, you know what I mean, when
- 4:59Speaker 1: I was are going to have some money, when people
- 5:02Speaker 1: was looking at me for handouts, and it's like you
- 5:07Speaker 1: gotta get it, just like I got it. You said
- 5:08Speaker 1: you only have been signed for four years. They only
- 5:10Speaker 1: been signed for four years. Yeah, so that in two
- 5:13Speaker 1: thousand and twelve, that's like I was just signed about signing,
- 5:16Speaker 1: not almost four years. I also watched a video block
- 5:19Speaker 1: that you did about patience. Yeah, you like praying it
- 5:22Speaker 1: is for you to be patient, and I'm certain decisions
- 5:24Speaker 1: that you made. I'm also kind of feeling like, do
- 5:26Speaker 1: you feel like you want to go back to school
- 5:27Speaker 1: and get a degree or something, because you touch on
- 5:31Speaker 1: that and it's like you feel like maybe other people
- 5:33Speaker 1: are looking to you like, oh you know, Oh no,
- 5:35Speaker 1: that's just I was frustrated. I was talking about like
- 5:38Speaker 1: when I graduated high school and I knew what I
- 5:42Speaker 1: wanted to do. I wanted to get to this music,
- 5:43Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I wanted to be a rapper.
- 5:45Speaker 1: And you know, I graduated like a three point seven.
- 5:48Speaker 1: I was on my way to Michigan State, but I
- 5:51Speaker 1: just didn't go because I just rapped for ya and
- 5:54Speaker 1: the deal was supposed to be in the works, but
- 5:56Speaker 1: it took a couple of years. So for those couple
- 5:58Speaker 1: of years, I was going through craziness, you know what
- 6:02Speaker 1: I mean. I was like staying in the same crib
- 6:03Speaker 1: I grew up in, obviously at my mom's house, in
- 6:06Speaker 1: the same room I grew up. And then get frustrated
- 6:08Speaker 1: when all your homies, you know, calling you from college,
- 6:11Speaker 1: like yeah, I just hit this, and you know, I
- 6:12Speaker 1: just did just as you know what I'm saying. And
- 6:15Speaker 1: then and then it was looking bad. Yeah, you know,
- 6:17Speaker 1: my grandma saved her saved up her whole life for uh,
- 6:21Speaker 1: you know, college money, tuition, and I'm blowing it on
- 6:24Speaker 1: studio sessions, you know what I mean. It was just
- 6:26Speaker 1: like it was something that was frustrating, you know what
- 6:28Speaker 1: I mean. And in that video, I was talking about
- 6:30Speaker 1: that and just saying, like, you realize everything your own process,
- 6:34Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You gotta follow like you know,
- 6:38Speaker 1: success can't be measured in nothing but happiness. And also
- 6:41Speaker 1: it's just like you gotta know that you on your
- 6:43Speaker 1: own path, you know, passed away. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and
- 6:50Speaker 1: you have a song that you dedicated to her as well. Yeah,
- 6:53Speaker 1: wo man could change the world. That's one of the
- 6:55Speaker 1: most songs I'm proud of on an album, just because
- 6:58Speaker 1: not only because I wrapped up my grandma and but
- 7:02Speaker 1: just because the whole meaning of the song. And you
- 7:04Speaker 1: could do a song like that and it could be
- 7:05Speaker 1: corny as hell quick as you know what I mean.
- 7:08Speaker 1: That's Kanye on the hook at that right, Well, I'm
- 7:10Speaker 1: on the hook the first one and then Kanye sing
- 7:12Speaker 1: the second one, John Legend sing the last one, and
- 7:14Speaker 1: on the second verse, I talked about my grandma, who
- 7:17Speaker 1: was a World War Two. She was one of the
- 7:19Speaker 1: first female black captains in World War Two. She was
- 7:21Speaker 1: one of the first female cops in the d She
- 7:26Speaker 1: you know it was a counselor teacher and she was
- 7:28Speaker 1: just the best grandma. Man. She used to cook home
- 7:30Speaker 1: cook you know mills every day after school, had our
- 7:32Speaker 1: special birthday cakes. So I wrote the song before she passed,
- 7:37Speaker 1: and I was telling her about it, and she was
- 7:39Speaker 1: like ninety four years old. So I was just finishing
- 7:41Speaker 1: an album around like Christmas, you know what I mean,
- 7:44Speaker 1: And I was gonna go play it for it. But
- 7:46Speaker 1: she passed a Mber twentieth. But it was like it
- 7:49Speaker 1: was a sad thing, but I still felt her consciousness there.
- 7:52Speaker 1: It was weird, and I still like felt like she
- 7:54Speaker 1: heard it and was there with us. And even at
- 7:56Speaker 1: the ceremony, you know, everybody was emotional crying and stuff.
- 7:59Speaker 1: But then I kind of felt like, man, she was
- 8:01Speaker 1: ninety four in the pain. She was in pain, you
- 8:04Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, in a wheelchair. So I kind
- 8:06Speaker 1: of felt like how you feel when like your homie
- 8:08Speaker 1: or your family member graduate school or something, just on
- 8:11Speaker 1: the bigger levels. Like I was happy for her that
- 8:13Speaker 1: she was like somewhere in heaven. Yeah, shed become successful
- 8:20Speaker 1: after what she invested in you, and I'm sure that
- 8:21Speaker 1: had to feel good. Yeah, And I bought her. I
- 8:23Speaker 1: bought all of us a house in Michigan, you know
- 8:25Speaker 1: what I mean. So I remember when we moved in,
- 8:27Speaker 1: she was like thank you, and like she she's seen
- 8:30Speaker 1: so much. Man, She's seen Hitler and she's seen Obama
- 8:33Speaker 1: in the same life time. You know what I'm saying.
- 8:34Speaker 1: That's a real ass. That's like og right there. So
- 8:37Speaker 1: she's definitely the most important person. And if one, if
- 8:40Speaker 1: one person showed me that you could change the world.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Seem like your father had a big presence in your
- 8:46Speaker 1: life too, because he's on this album. Yeah, he on
- 8:47Speaker 1: wins some of lusion at the end of it. So
- 8:49Speaker 1: I remember we were he didn't know we was recording that.
- 8:52Speaker 1: He didn't you know, he didn't realize he was on
- 8:54Speaker 1: an album till it was finished. I remember I was
- 8:56Speaker 1: in the ded just kicking it with my family and
- 9:00Speaker 1: we went to the Whiz Khalifa concert. Here Whiz hit
- 9:02Speaker 1: me up randomly like you in the d I'm like, yeah,
- 9:04Speaker 1: sounded high when he was he sounded high. So he
- 9:09Speaker 1: was like, you know, he was off that vibe. He
- 9:11Speaker 1: might have had some champagne, like you said, whatever, whatever,
- 9:14Speaker 1: and he was just going on for like the whole
- 9:18Speaker 1: car ride. My brother was recording the whole situation, and
- 9:21Speaker 1: it was crazy all the stuff he said. You know,
- 9:23Speaker 1: I didn't hear. It's crazy how you don't hear some
- 9:26Speaker 1: stuff until you listen back to it. That's like for real,
- 9:29Speaker 1: for real, because he was talking like, man, you know,
- 9:32Speaker 1: I just wish we could go on a vacation, me
- 9:34Speaker 1: and your brother. You know, no interviews, no cameras. I'm
- 9:37Speaker 1: sitting there, you know, while he was saying it, I'm
- 9:39Speaker 1: just like this, you know this sound crazy whatever and um.
- 9:42Speaker 1: But then when I listened back to it, man, it
- 9:44Speaker 1: was like breaking my heart because it was like, damn,
- 9:47Speaker 1: it's like this is what needs to happen. I do
- 9:49Speaker 1: need to Yeah, I need to be like a better son,
- 9:52Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's just hard spreading yourself,
- 9:54Speaker 1: you know when it comes to you know, the people
- 9:56Speaker 1: you love and then all these things. And he was
- 9:59Speaker 1: just saying, like old man, people hear you. You know,
- 10:01Speaker 1: you talk with your brain, but they hear you from
- 10:03Speaker 1: your heart. And you know, he just went on and on.
- 10:06Speaker 1: So it was like cool. It was really like what
- 10:07Speaker 1: do you what do you mean when he said life
- 10:08Speaker 1: is a feeling process? Life is a feeling process, They
- 10:11Speaker 1: don't mean they could feel when you authentic when you not.
- 10:15Speaker 1: They could feel when you're on your boys, they could
- 10:17Speaker 1: feel your pain, they could feel your stories, you know
- 10:20Speaker 1: what I mean. That's how I took it. I've been
- 10:21Speaker 1: dying to ask you about this because we know that
- 10:24Speaker 1: obviously you went through a lot in these past couple
- 10:26Speaker 1: of years relationship wise and everything that I feel like
- 10:29Speaker 1: everybody has. Though, yeah, now not ever does she really
- 10:33Speaker 1: not shower or ask what's that box? Three days? And
- 10:41Speaker 1: I said that must have been rough on Big Sean.
- 10:43Speaker 1: It was the first thing she said that on the
- 10:45Speaker 1: view though I know I heard, I saw people hitting
- 10:47Speaker 1: me up, like was there any truth today? Ain't type
- 10:53Speaker 1: of old? No? I was never liked now. You also
- 10:57Speaker 1: say on the new album you say silliest you said
- 11:01Speaker 1: your father told you to slow down on all the
- 11:03Speaker 1: girls you messing with, told you not the Russia that
- 11:06Speaker 1: don't make the same mistakes he made with your mother.
- 11:09Speaker 1: But what was that about that? Man? Just take your
- 11:12Speaker 1: time with him. Man, it's no rush, you know what
- 11:15Speaker 1: I mean. I felt like there are times obviously where
- 11:17Speaker 1: I have been rushing in life for no reason. Man.
- 11:20Speaker 1: I'm young, you know what I mean. I got a
- 11:23Speaker 1: career ahead of me. I got goals, I got things
- 11:25Speaker 1: I wanted to do, and I just need to slow
- 11:27Speaker 1: down and enjoy it. Man, have fun with it. And
- 11:30Speaker 1: he said, don't make the same mistake. Was it he
- 11:32Speaker 1: jumped into early he was in? I mean, yeah, he
- 11:34Speaker 1: made mistakes. You know, him and my mom split up.
- 11:37Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to put all their business
- 11:38Speaker 1: out there, but obviously it didn't work out between them.
- 11:41Speaker 1: They still friends or whatever. You know, they always still there.
- 11:45Speaker 1: They've always been there, I guess out of respect for
- 11:47Speaker 1: me and my brother. But you know, my dad was
- 11:49Speaker 1: always a very much so part of my life. And
- 11:51Speaker 1: you know my mom raised me. And yeah, you know
- 11:55Speaker 1: you learn that doesn't with your whole patience thing too,
- 11:58Speaker 1: learning to be more patient and not winning everything right away. Yeah. Now, now, Wifeie,
- 12:03Speaker 1: how was she with with this album? Does she have
- 12:04Speaker 1: any influence? Because it's it's a little different now. Before
- 12:07Speaker 1: I would see you when the whiz Kalifa clubs, but
- 12:09Speaker 1: now I see you in all types of clubs. I
- 12:11Speaker 1: mean with with Jersey Fitz pumping in some clubs. We
- 12:14Speaker 1: got a backpack and won club. So how she influenced
- 12:17Speaker 1: your though that she has influence, I don't know about influence,
- 12:21Speaker 1: just like because it's a different world, there's a different world.
- 12:24Speaker 1: I'm still the same me though, I know, but I'll
- 12:26Speaker 1: still be in the same spots, you know. But I
- 12:29Speaker 1: was in the club I was in the clubs before
- 12:31Speaker 1: her before, you know, since really since Assid and all
- 12:35Speaker 1: that stuff, that stuff went far from me, you know
- 12:38Speaker 1: what I mean. So I've been able to maneuver since then.
- 12:41Speaker 1: And even though the music has changed up, I feel like,
- 12:45Speaker 1: you know, it's only changed for the better. I'm just
- 12:48Speaker 1: doing how I want to do it. And her influence,
- 12:51Speaker 1: she's only just been a positive influence, just you know,
- 12:54Speaker 1: supportive you do day Area on the ground that she's
- 12:56Speaker 1: on the album. You'll got the song called research. Yeah,
- 12:58Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. The song basically saying you
- 13:00Speaker 1: got to do your research on these chicks because they
- 13:02Speaker 1: might be with you. He might be with Trade, it
- 13:04Speaker 1: might be with Chris already, might be going through your phone.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Did you do that kind of research on Arianna? Make
- 13:09Speaker 1: sure she wasn't with any other rappers, the ball players? Oh,
- 13:12Speaker 1: you know, I ask around, not just her, any girl.
- 13:16Speaker 1: You know, you gotta make sure, you know what I mean,
- 13:18Speaker 1: But what I like about that song too, is that
- 13:20Speaker 1: we was able to put our situation to the side.
- 13:22Speaker 1: She was able to just be an artist, you know
- 13:24Speaker 1: what I mean, and we just rap about some stuff
- 13:27Speaker 1: that's real, even rather as real to us or not,
- 13:29Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I appreciate it now clearly.
- 13:31Speaker 1: So she's an underage issue because it's a meme floating
- 13:34Speaker 1: around to you and Tiger. Yeah, and it says Sean
- 13:37Speaker 1: and Tiger after they dropped their girls off it kindergarten.
- 13:40Speaker 1: That's pretty funny. I never seen that. When did you
- 13:42Speaker 1: make that up? No? I didn't mean actually, so does
- 13:47Speaker 1: that really happen though? Somebody unlocked your phone and went
- 13:49Speaker 1: through your phone? Is that a dealbreaker in a relationship?
- 13:51Speaker 1: If somebody goes through you, that's happened for sure, that's
- 13:54Speaker 1: happened to all of us. That's happened to you, It
- 13:56Speaker 1: happened to your ass, happened to you. Deal break it up? Man?
- 14:02Speaker 1: Hell yeah, it don't work after that. I feel like,
- 14:05Speaker 1: especially if they found something, I mean, at least from
- 14:08Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, if you're gonna look in deep, you're
- 14:11Speaker 1: gonna find something, you know, whether it's even if you
- 14:15Speaker 1: make it up in your mind. Whether even if it's nothing,
- 14:18Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Sometimes people just like put
- 14:20Speaker 1: stuff together that don't even make sense and just it
- 14:23Speaker 1: just creates a certain weird energy when you do stuff
- 14:25Speaker 1: like that, do you find it better to be in
- 14:27Speaker 1: a committed situation? Because in that second verse of research,
- 14:29Speaker 1: you talk about how all the rappers do bang the
- 14:32Speaker 1: same chicks, And to me, that's kind of weird, Like
- 14:34Speaker 1: why does that happen? Like the world is big, you
- 14:36Speaker 1: don't all have to bang the same circle of chicks.
- 14:38Speaker 1: You'd be banging them chicks too, Man, I mean a couple,
- 14:41Speaker 1: but you know what I'm saying. Yeah, but why is that?
- 14:45Speaker 1: Why do you think everybody bangs the same chicks? I
- 14:49Speaker 1: don't know, Man, I got a girlfriend. And the funny
- 14:52Speaker 1: thing about Chalomi mc coming here and bang it take
- 14:55Speaker 1: thinking he was the only one like, oh, you know,

- 15:06Speaker 1: I never thought y'all gheto asked of you. Man, that's
- 15:08Speaker 1: the best thing to do is better just to be
- 15:10Speaker 1: in that stable situation. I find it more stable for me. Yeah,
- 15:13Speaker 1: I'm focused man. Like I said, I'm hungry than ever.
- 15:15Speaker 1: I'm focused. That's the best way to be. I ain't
- 15:18Speaker 1: got time to be on the other ship. Man. You

- 15:25Speaker 1: makes it better, you know what I mean? Y'all focused,
- 15:27Speaker 1: y'all both got things going on. That's a synergy right there.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Don't you say I'm more jealous. You are Arianna jealous
- 15:34Speaker 1: like of other you know, obviously guys like her emails
- 15:38Speaker 1: like you. You know, it was more jealous between the two,
- 15:41Speaker 1: I know. Like I said, I don't focus on that
- 15:45Speaker 1: like that. I've seen y'all. You You're pretty open. You
- 15:49Speaker 1: pull people into the section to take pictures with her,
- 15:51Speaker 1: like you, y'all see you happy, very happy? Yeah for sure.
- 15:54Speaker 1: But you you know what, you reported a story one
- 15:56Speaker 1: time about a video shoot or something that she was
- 15:58Speaker 1: mad about the girls that was in the video shoot.
- 16:00Speaker 1: But that ever happened with me? Yeah? No, no, what
- 16:05Speaker 1: was the story? I don't remember that was that was
- 16:07Speaker 1: a while ago. But somebody dared requart back to us
- 16:11Speaker 1: that you recently had a UM listening party and she
- 16:14Speaker 1: just didn't want you to walk away from her or whatever,
- 16:16Speaker 1: and she can't leave her alone, and she's jealous of
- 16:19Speaker 1: other girls. I was just asking because I don't know
- 16:21Speaker 1: if it's two or not. Obviously, people are sometimes over
- 16:23Speaker 1: here and see things and you don't know what the
- 16:24Speaker 1: real story is behind it. Na, that ain't true. I
- 16:28Speaker 1: walk around leave her, she Instagram and everything. I could
- 16:31Speaker 1: leave her. You know. I ain't even gonna talk about that.
- 16:33Speaker 1: But not that ain't true. Okay, Now you got a
- 16:35Speaker 1: line on the album you say, the bigger you get,
- 16:37Speaker 1: the more you need shrinks. You're seeing a psychiatrist, man, Nah,
- 16:42Speaker 1: I've been the therapy before. Yeah, I mean I was
- 16:44Speaker 1: thinking about it the cool man. Sometimes you got to
- 16:47Speaker 1: talk to somebody there you go because like if you're
- 16:49Speaker 1: the go to guy, who does the go to guy
- 16:51Speaker 1: go to exactly? So you had to go see one
- 16:54Speaker 1: while you was you know, been signed and all that. Yeah,
- 16:57Speaker 1: I mean it ain't even like serious, But yeah, I
- 16:59Speaker 1: definitely talked to a therapist before. It's good. I encourage it.
- 17:03Speaker 1: What are you tell him? Man? Whatever the hell is
- 17:06Speaker 1: on NOCAUSELD media training, no PR because you are big
- 17:13Speaker 1: Sean or do you just talk? Just talk? Man? They're
- 17:17Speaker 1: not allowed that. They're not allowed to go and tell
- 17:20Speaker 1: people what you said, shrieks. How was the rack nation
- 17:28Speaker 1: relationship with you? Now? Obviously you know you recently signed
- 17:30Speaker 1: on to rack Nations. Jay Z and Beyonce came out
- 17:33Speaker 1: and everything, and you said that was a big deal
- 17:35Speaker 1: to have jay Z there and telling you, you know
- 17:37Speaker 1: how much he loves your music and the album. How's
- 17:40Speaker 1: that relationship? It was great? Yeah, and they definitely they
- 17:44Speaker 1: show love and on top of that, they just handle
- 17:46Speaker 1: their business. That's what I need. I need, like you
- 17:48Speaker 1: know what I mean, to just make sure my money
- 17:50Speaker 1: straight to boss up and I work way too hard
- 17:53Speaker 1: to have my business like not right, you know what
- 17:55Speaker 1: I mean? So I feel like for management, um, at
- 17:58Speaker 1: least from my situation, they best best management. So Kevin
- 18:02Speaker 1: Lows didn't have a business right when you were over there.
- 18:04Speaker 1: I'm not saying he didn't have a business stripe, but
- 18:06Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's like, you get to a certain
- 18:08Speaker 1: point and you just want to try new things. So
- 18:10Speaker 1: that's that's all I did. I try new things and
- 18:12Speaker 1: ended up working out best for me. You got another
- 18:14Speaker 1: line on the album. I think it's interesting you talk
- 18:15Speaker 1: about how you met uh Jim Carry. I think you said,
- 18:17Speaker 1: y'all in the White House or something like that. Yeah,
- 18:19Speaker 1: and you told me you're not the only person who
- 18:21Speaker 1: got rich wearing a mask. Yeah you've been wearing Man,
- 18:24Speaker 1: I ain't wearing a mask. I said, You're not the
- 18:25Speaker 1: only one I know got rich wearing masks. I'm frond
- 18:27Speaker 1: of d Everybody around us got ski mask on. Nobody's
- 18:30Speaker 1: ski you know what I mean. So okay, now, But
- 18:39Speaker 1: but I was at the White House, so you could
- 18:41Speaker 1: just imagine just that's a crazy moment. But you also
- 18:45Speaker 1: said you feel you feel You said you feel hate
- 18:47Speaker 1: can be the best love. Why why do you feel
- 18:50Speaker 1: that way? Because hay can inspire you, Man, it could
- 18:53Speaker 1: be it can inspire you more than somebody telling they
- 18:55Speaker 1: love you. Somebody being like, man, I hate you, or
- 18:58Speaker 1: you're not good enough for this, and that that could
- 18:59Speaker 1: drive to a point, you know what I mean. So
- 19:02Speaker 1: I feel like early on in your career, people used
- 19:04Speaker 1: to go at you all the time on Twitter, you
- 19:06Speaker 1: know about your lyrics and your rast, But now those
- 19:08Speaker 1: people are a lot more quiet. It feels like you
- 19:10Speaker 1: proved a lot from the beginning up until now. Yeah,
- 19:14Speaker 1: I'm very I'm just proud of myself for being a
- 19:17Speaker 1: better person, a better version of me to keep it
- 19:20Speaker 1: on a hundry. And I did this album how I
- 19:22Speaker 1: wanted to do it. I built a studio in my house.
- 19:25Speaker 1: I didn't lead at you know what I mean. I
- 19:27Speaker 1: had all the producers I had up in there, John
- 19:30Speaker 1: Legend to everybody, Jane Eko, Arianna to Chris to Todd
- 19:36Speaker 1: Alla Sign, all the producers, mixing, producers up. You know
- 19:39Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Mustard mixing with Keywaine on the track
- 19:42Speaker 1: die He mixing with Kanye mixing with this with that,
- 19:45Speaker 1: and it's just like I'm happy I did in my
- 19:47Speaker 1: way man for Real also said that her collaboration with
- 19:50Speaker 1: you on this album is one of her top three
- 19:51Speaker 1: of all time collaborations that she's ever done. And I
- 19:55Speaker 1: think one of the other ones is your other collaboration
- 19:57Speaker 1: with her as well. She said those are in her
- 19:59Speaker 1: top three of everything. That's crazy. If you could do
- 20:03Speaker 1: a collaboration album with somebody, who would it be with?
- 20:06Speaker 1: Probably he? And what's that relationship like? Now? Kanye said
- 20:09Speaker 1: he did one with Drake, though he wants to do
- 20:11Speaker 1: one with Drake. Yeah, I would do one with Drake too.
- 20:14Speaker 1: What's your relationship? I'd be body. I'd be on there going.
- 20:17Speaker 1: I would doing with a lot of people. I would
- 20:19Speaker 1: doing with Jane, I would doing with Arianna, I would
- 20:23Speaker 1: doing with I think it's cool when people do like
- 20:26Speaker 1: sixth songs, know what I'm saying. I think that's that's
- 20:30Speaker 1: the new wave. I think people need to start doing
- 20:32Speaker 1: the EPs. Yeah, what's your relationship with you? The reason
- 20:35Speaker 1: I asked is because he's he was up to the
- 20:37Speaker 1: other day, said he needs to start standing more by
- 20:38Speaker 1: his artists, start standing on his artists and helping his
- 20:41Speaker 1: artists do with more remixes and videos and video. They
- 20:44Speaker 1: just need to support his artists more, he been. I
- 20:46Speaker 1: could tell you he's been all in on this one. Obviously.
- 20:49Speaker 1: You hear him a blessings, You hear him on all
- 20:51Speaker 1: your fault. You hear him one woman could change the world,
- 20:53Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So you know what that is.
- 20:56Speaker 1: But they would change because I remember one time he
- 20:59Speaker 1: didn't seem like he was supporting his artists much. It
- 21:01Speaker 1: seemed like he had a lot more on his mind
- 21:02Speaker 1: at one time. I just think one person can only
- 21:05Speaker 1: do so much, you know what I mean. I think
- 21:06Speaker 1: he had stuff he was going on with himself. I
- 21:09Speaker 1: think he in a better place. It's just yeah, that's
- 21:12Speaker 1: just my opinion. You know, you gotta ask him. But
- 21:14Speaker 1: I feel like his wife, his kid, and just he
- 21:18Speaker 1: getting out his like what he'd been working on, you
- 21:20Speaker 1: know what I mean. And it's inspiring to see somebody
- 21:23Speaker 1: who passionately like, Okay, he wanted to do the clothes.
- 21:25Speaker 1: He got the clothes off successfully. You know what I'm saying.
- 21:28Speaker 1: I went to that fashion show. He got the clothes
- 21:31Speaker 1: off successfully. Cancel, cancel, that's a new Paul's cancel cancel. Man. Yeah,
- 21:38Speaker 1: but um, he got his clothing line off the ground successfully.
- 21:44Speaker 1: He got you know, obviously the music thing, a wife,
- 21:48Speaker 1: you know, Like I said, the kid, he just it's
- 21:50Speaker 1: good to see things going well for him, you know
- 21:52Speaker 1: what I mean. And he's like, man, he wanted. He's
- 21:54Speaker 1: the happiest person I know. He like lightns the whole
- 21:57Speaker 1: room up with his vibe, you know what I'm saying.
- 21:59Speaker 1: And he'll come help people with whatever you got going
- 22:01Speaker 1: on now, dust Scott, prioritize you said you don't owe
- 22:03Speaker 1: anybody any fables, and like we all had help on
- 22:06Speaker 1: the way up, so it makes you feel like you
- 22:07Speaker 1: don't owe anybody no fables. I mean, yeah, we all
- 22:12Speaker 1: had help on the way up. But I feel like
- 22:15Speaker 1: any help I got, I've given back, you know what
- 22:17Speaker 1: I mean? Even more so I give anybody who helped me.
- 22:21Speaker 1: I didn't give an opportunity. I didn't give a check,
- 22:25Speaker 1: you know, in one way or another. I didn't put
- 22:27Speaker 1: them in positions. I didn't, you know. I kept it real,
- 22:31Speaker 1: and it ain't too many real people out here. Man.
- 22:33Speaker 1: People be on some weak bitch ash man all day long.
- 22:37Speaker 1: And then when you and when people are regular people,
- 22:39Speaker 1: industry people, regular people. And then when you keep it
- 22:41Speaker 1: real with people, man, they cross the line with you. Man.
- 22:44Speaker 1: They take your kindness for weakness, and that's weak. It
- 22:47Speaker 1: seems like you had some real personal experience that make
- 22:49Speaker 1: you really mad. Yeah. Of course, of course people that
- 22:52Speaker 1: you thought you was cool with that and you talk
- 22:54Speaker 1: about that aren't blessing. Yeah, you know as well, just
- 22:58Speaker 1: you know, friends and just like people. How much effect
- 23:02Speaker 1: does the blogs have on you? Because you got another
- 23:04Speaker 1: line when you say it sucks, it sucks when you
- 23:06Speaker 1: look on the end of it and see you lying
- 23:07Speaker 1: on me. Well, I wrote that that was I wrote
- 23:10Speaker 1: that verse in twenty fourteen, and that was when all
- 23:12Speaker 1: that drama was going on, when it was yeah, stuff
- 23:17Speaker 1: supposedly right, I said, I always say, I know how
- 23:21Speaker 1: many get Big shar mad at any point, just telling
- 23:23Speaker 1: he stole an role. I never stole. No, Damn, I
- 23:27Speaker 1: bought every Rolex I got. Now you said, you know,
- 23:29Speaker 1: you said you feel like you're on that frontier and
- 23:32Speaker 1: people look at you like that, like do you really
- 23:34Speaker 1: could you say you got another line in the album?
- 23:35Speaker 1: You say you put the best rapper but you don't
- 23:37Speaker 1: even know it. Yeah, I feel like I've seen the
- 23:42Speaker 1: progression in myself as an artist and as a rapper,
- 23:44Speaker 1: and I can see in myself I've been getting better.
- 23:47Speaker 1: So I don't know if anybody else can, but I
- 23:49Speaker 1: for shore seeing it in myself. And I remember when
- 23:51Speaker 1: I was sitting down with you in the studio, he
- 23:53Speaker 1: was just like, you're clearly this is clearly your best work.
- 23:56Speaker 1: You clearly are getting better. And he was like, that
- 23:58Speaker 1: just goes to show you still at the beginning in
- 24:00Speaker 1: your career. And he was like, that's tight to see,
- 24:02Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So that's how I feel,
- 24:05Speaker 1: and I'm gonna showing I prove I mean I'm gonna
