- 0:26Speaker 1: down a lot? I did? I lost? How did you
- 0:29Speaker 1: do that so quick? I wasn't that quick. I was
- 0:31Speaker 1: on the way when we met last time. But I've
- 0:34Speaker 1: just been, you know, eating right and getting it together.
- 0:37Speaker 1: What's eating right for you? What's what's eating right? Because
- 0:40Speaker 1: I go I usually, you know, I eat a terrible times.
- 0:43Speaker 1: So in the morning I start off with a banana
- 0:46Speaker 1: shake with peanut butter and some raw coco. And I
- 0:51Speaker 1: do that twice and twice the day, do you? But
- 0:55Speaker 1: then I hit the ginger shot wheat grass, about two
- 1:00Speaker 1: gallons of water a day, just walking around, just going in. Now,
- 1:04Speaker 1: I saw you with the food truck. If myself I
- 1:07Speaker 1: didn't look healthy though it was not healthy whatsoever. That
- 1:10Speaker 1: was the one time, you know, I let it go
- 1:11Speaker 1: a little bit down there. I'm not gonna lie. I
- 1:14Speaker 1: ate a lot of beef, a lot of beef ribs.
- 1:17Speaker 1: The brisket was out of control. The beef ribs was
- 1:20Speaker 1: out of control. But the food that I was serving,
- 1:23Speaker 1: the people loved it. Was like it's something that everyone
- 1:25Speaker 1: could eat down there. So uh, fried potatoes with gravy,
- 1:29Speaker 1: cheese and brisket. Everyone loved it. Did you cook the
- 1:32Speaker 1: food yourself? I gave them the recipe and then the
- 1:35Speaker 1: girls that were directed, Yes, I directed, I produced it.
- 1:39Speaker 1: I produced a situation. Yeah. But the girls that were
- 1:42Speaker 1: working on the truck, they killed it for me. They
- 1:44Speaker 1: really knocked out about two thousand places, and I just
- 1:47Speaker 1: gave them all away. It was great. Who comes up
- 1:49Speaker 1: with those marketing plants? Because because as a chef, do
- 1:51Speaker 1: you feel like that, Okay, that's stereotypical. You just go
- 1:53Speaker 1: to make me throw out a food truck. No. I
- 1:55Speaker 1: wanted to do that because I feel like, you know,
- 1:57Speaker 1: connected with the fans, especially through food. Is It's what
- 2:00Speaker 1: I'm known for. Yeah, it makes sense, it makes sense.
- 2:02Speaker 1: And down there it's it's a food truck heaven in Austin.
- 2:05Speaker 1: It's like it's the biggest boom of food trucks in America.
- 2:09Speaker 1: The best marketing plans, I think, are the ones that
- 2:11Speaker 1: make sense for who you are exactly. And you know,
- 2:13Speaker 1: a lot of the ideas I come up with myself,
- 2:15Speaker 1: but I can't execute it all the way. So we
- 2:17Speaker 1: have the good people that are helping execute it, and
- 2:20Speaker 1: that's just the way it goes. Or Now, I was
- 2:22Speaker 1: listening to the mister Wonderful and they didn't see the
- 2:24Speaker 1: production credit yet, so I'm assuming Alchemists did a lot
- 2:26Speaker 1: of joints. He did three joints on the yep. Okay,
- 2:28Speaker 1: this is because I had thought. Yeah, it confused me
- 2:34Speaker 1: a little bit because some of the records weren't even
- 2:35Speaker 1: wasn't a rap on them. Yeah, I know. I was
- 2:37Speaker 1: just you know, I'm trying to do more of just
- 2:38Speaker 1: like different pieces of music, not just only rap, because
- 2:42Speaker 1: I gave out ten projects of straight ridiculous rapping, you
- 2:46Speaker 1: know what I mean, just NonStop. So now this time
- 2:49Speaker 1: I just wanted to take take the time and just
- 2:51Speaker 1: really like do the music I wanted to do. The
- 2:53Speaker 1: Alchemists tell you should experiment a little, and he was
- 2:56Speaker 1: iffy about those joints at first, honestly, but then he
- 2:59Speaker 1: came back around. You know, it was like, yeah, you
- 3:01Speaker 1: know he needed I just felt like he's done so
- 3:03Speaker 1: much already. But it was like, okay, now the major
- 3:06Speaker 1: album on the label. You gotta take it one step.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Don't be afraid, because I felt like he built. He
- 3:12Speaker 1: sometimes gets put in the category that's like keep it
- 3:14Speaker 1: real rapping, you know what I mean, backpacks, But he's
- 3:17Speaker 1: not that. Yeah, he listens to saw some music, he
- 3:19Speaker 1: listens to crazy, so I felt like he needed to
- 3:25Speaker 1: show that too. He said that on the record Terry,
- 3:28Speaker 1: he said, you do a remix with pit Bull? And
- 3:31Speaker 1: like what Bronson do a remix with pit Bull. I'm
- 3:32Speaker 1: gonna tell you who the remix is gonna be for
- 3:34Speaker 1: that song, me pit Bull and then Doom. You got
- 3:38Speaker 1: it done already. I have the Doom verse. Oh, City
- 3:47Speaker 1: Boy Blue. That sounded like a jam session. Yeah, that
- 3:49Speaker 1: was just like kind of like a light hook on there.
- 3:51Speaker 1: That was just a better music man that that song
- 3:53Speaker 1: right there was specifically, well City Boy Blues, A Light
- 3:58Speaker 1: in the Attic and Baby Blue. It's supposed to be
- 4:01Speaker 1: like a little mini musical in between the album, you know,
- 4:05Speaker 1: so that starts it off. It's all about kind of like,
- 4:08Speaker 1: you know, relationship things that woes that I've gone through,
- 4:12Speaker 1: and I just I just caught a bug. Eighty eight
- 4:15Speaker 1: Keys produced that one right there with Party Supplies, and
- 4:18Speaker 1: he just played it for me, and I just couldn't
- 4:20Speaker 1: wrap to it. I couldn't catch a rhythm to wrap
- 4:23Speaker 1: make it sound good at least. So it's like, you know,
- 4:25Speaker 1: I'm writing a song. I was listening to a lot
- 4:27Speaker 1: of Billy Joel that day and I was like, YO,
- 4:36Speaker 1: explain the light the Attic record. Yeah, exactly. It was
- 4:42Speaker 1: a play on I'm the shel Silverstein book, A Lightening
- 4:45Speaker 1: the Addict. A lighting Addict is uh, you know, it's
- 4:49Speaker 1: just it's kind of heroiny, it's kind of you know,
- 4:52Speaker 1: it's like dopey. It's like dope music. It's just party
- 4:55Speaker 1: supplies and uh. And the dude who wrote it, Sean,
- 4:58Speaker 1: they were sniffing dope at the time and taking a
- 5:01Speaker 1: lot of you know, hallucinogens as well. And that's just
- 5:05Speaker 1: you say in the Mountains that one's rap. But you know,
- 5:13Speaker 1: I mean, you know what I mean that that that
- 5:17Speaker 1: music made me feel like I was taking answer for
- 5:19Speaker 1: ten days straight. That's what I meant. It's just like
- 5:22Speaker 1: that Turkish funkadelic. Man, it's just some next level music.
- 5:26Speaker 1: They just like the music from all over the world.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Is this There's so much out there that you have
- 5:31Speaker 1: that you have not heard. You just need to. Like
- 5:34Speaker 1: al he goes all over these places and just gathers records,
- 5:37Speaker 1: gathers records. We come back and we listen to him,
- 5:39Speaker 1: and it's just like we can make beats from them more.
- 5:41Speaker 1: I could just put them in my eye tunes and
- 5:42Speaker 1: just listen all day long, bump them in the car.
- 5:45Speaker 1: The name mister Wonderful, explain that. You know, mister Wonderful
- 5:48Speaker 1: is just something my mother used to call me. It's
- 5:50Speaker 1: kind of tongue in cheek, you know. She used to
- 5:52Speaker 1: if you're like kind of like, you know, a mess up,
- 5:54Speaker 1: or you do terrible things, or you act up all
- 5:57Speaker 1: the time, mister wonderful over here. You know exactly what
- 6:03Speaker 1: it's name as well. But you know he was also
- 6:07Speaker 1: like a real jerk, so that's why it kind of
- 6:10Speaker 1: played fun. You know, I'm not really a jerk, but
- 6:13Speaker 1: sometimes I could be. Met I played one on TV. Yeah,
- 6:16Speaker 1: now let me ask you this. I was just talking
- 6:18Speaker 1: about um, you know, just you trying to experiment with
- 6:21Speaker 1: different things. Didn't make you nervous that your fans would
- 6:24Speaker 1: be like, what the hell is he doing? Of course
- 6:26Speaker 1: you don't want to. I mean, if they're real fans,
- 6:29Speaker 1: they're gonna understand the growth and everything that needs to
- 6:31Speaker 1: you know. Me, Me musically, I came into the into
- 6:35Speaker 1: the music thing late, you know, so right now I'm
- 6:38Speaker 1: really just getting my I'm getting my feet under me. Um.
- 6:42Speaker 1: It's only been five or six years since I've been rapping,
- 6:45Speaker 1: so I'm just really getting into music as a whole
- 6:50Speaker 1: and understanding it more and being able to use different
- 6:54Speaker 1: vocals and stuff like that. Because I was definitely scared
- 6:58Speaker 1: or self conscious about singing. But then I was like,
- 7:01Speaker 1: you know what, all these other dudes can't sing for
- 7:05Speaker 1: they stink. And I definitely could throw some effects that
- 7:09Speaker 1: make me sound like Stevie ray Vaughan or something. I
- 7:14Speaker 1: couldn't figure it out, like good thing, it's like Jim
- 7:16Speaker 1: Morrison or something. It's like some seventies some vibe chick
- 7:22Speaker 1: at you and your feelings on that it wasn't true.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Oh that's true. Yeah, all that heartbreak like you bought
- 7:29Speaker 1: a crib? Oh yeah, come on, how much the house.
- 7:33Speaker 1: That's not that much nineteen hundred a month. Well, yeah,
- 7:38Speaker 1: it has a lot to do with that. But it's
- 7:40Speaker 1: you know, it's like a lot of relationships that go
- 7:42Speaker 1: wrong in general. You know, it's usually that's how it goes.
- 7:45Speaker 1: That's actually the first time I've ever heard a chance
- 7:46Speaker 1: to wrap a rap. He rapped and I told him.
- 7:49Speaker 1: I told that last my mind, Like I never heard
- 7:51Speaker 1: a verse from you, and but I liked. But I
- 7:58Speaker 1: saw you guys came my Southwest together. Yeah, we did that. Well,
- 8:01Speaker 1: I've seen Charlotta Magne over there. He was hosting U.
- 8:04Speaker 1: The Woodis did a good job over there with Nessa.
- 8:07Speaker 1: And now I have some questions for you. If you
- 8:11Speaker 1: had to pick between two different things, some of these
- 8:14Speaker 1: might be hard because Alchemist is right here, Okay, all right,
- 8:17Speaker 1: Alchemists or Mark Ranson. I mean you know I have
- 8:20Speaker 1: to go without Okay, after Queen's bya grew up on mob.
- 8:26Speaker 1: That's that's just what it is. Bay, who Bay for?
- 8:37Speaker 1: What are we referring to? What? Don't you worry about it?
- 8:40Speaker 1: This is your first instinct? Nah? Nah, I guess Bay
- 8:49Speaker 1: all right? Coachella or south By Southwest Coachella or South
- 8:55Speaker 1: by Southwest, Um, south By coach Coachell is amazing as well.
- 9:03Speaker 1: I'm doing Coachella this year, by the way, UM, it's
- 9:05Speaker 1: amazing as well. But south By you get this concentration
- 9:09Speaker 1: of everybody down there. It's just I feel's a good
- 9:11Speaker 1: feeling down there, moving from place to place. Everyone's running
- 9:15Speaker 1: to go see this person. Oh, I gotta leave it
- 9:17Speaker 1: the last song. I gotta go run here and catch
- 9:19Speaker 1: this person. It's just a cool feeling. It's like like
- 9:22Speaker 1: a it's a conference. I don't know what I mean.
- 9:24Speaker 1: In the food. The food, you gotta keep it there.
- 9:28Speaker 1: It's just it's a good time. It was snowing up
- 9:31Speaker 1: here and it was cold, so we were down there
- 9:33Speaker 1: was sweating, all right, shrooms are Molly's shrooms. I've never
- 9:38Speaker 1: done a Molly My. I don't know, all right, ja
- 9:41Speaker 1: cold Kendrick Kendrick like you're honesty, keep on my headitate
- 9:47Speaker 1: the only one you hesitated on with Hubby or Bay Well, yeah,
- 9:50Speaker 1: I don't know. You wrapped a lot about drugs on
- 9:54Speaker 1: the album. I didn't know if you're really in the drugs.
- 9:56Speaker 1: There was just rap. I don't know, No, I'm I'm
- 9:59Speaker 1: I've definitely later on in my life. I started, I've
- 10:03Speaker 1: used shrooms, you know, like I actually the first one
- 10:05Speaker 1: of the first times I took shrooms is in Africa
- 10:08Speaker 1: and we went in South Africa and I took these.
- 10:10Speaker 1: This dude had these, um, these concentrated psilocybin drops, which
- 10:16Speaker 1: is just pure extract. So I took one. We all
- 10:19Speaker 1: wild out, went to Noble. I don't think for eight hours,
- 10:22Speaker 1: just just the precursors of it. No bugging out, just laughing,
- 10:25Speaker 1: uncontrolled eight hours. Yeah, so at least five in South
- 10:31Speaker 1: Africa and Noble. It was crazy. Wow, the faces in there,
- 10:36Speaker 1: it was just That's all I remember is these crazy faces. Man.
- 10:41Speaker 1: That with most New York rappers. If if you look
- 10:43Speaker 1: like you say mob Deep, they're known as a New
- 10:44Speaker 1: York rapper, but you're not. You're just action bronzes. Does
- 10:47Speaker 1: that bother you at all that people don't associate you
- 10:49Speaker 1: necessarily from New York. Um? No, I mean nah, I
- 10:55Speaker 1: just think they're uneducated, you know. Honestly, Um, you probably
- 10:58Speaker 1: got more them on your passport than I mean. I
- 11:01Speaker 1: had to get a new passport. I had to add
- 11:03Speaker 1: thirty extra pages. Also, straight up, Um, you know, I'm
- 11:09Speaker 1: a Queen's native thirty. There's no other place I'm from,
- 11:13Speaker 1: you know, there's no other place that explains me. It's
- 11:16Speaker 1: just straight queens. If you don't understand, where where could
- 11:19Speaker 1: I be from? If you hear me talk, you know,
- 11:21Speaker 1: I'm not from Indiana, you know what. I might look it,
- 11:26Speaker 1: but I'm not who It's some other artist that hit
- 11:28Speaker 1: you up, like on the regular on your phone asking
- 11:30Speaker 1: you to you know, just just say whatever. Vince Staples
- 11:34Speaker 1: hits me up constantly. We always talk to each other.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Um yeah, Ray, I mean raised the man he's He's
- 11:43Speaker 1: always showed love since the beginning. Um yeah, I talked
- 11:46Speaker 1: to Ray a lot. I talked to Prodigy. Um that's
- 11:50Speaker 1: really it. You know, like a lot of younger dudes
- 11:52Speaker 1: that are not really like that. Popp and I just
- 11:54Speaker 1: I keep in contact with it. What a select few,
- 11:57Speaker 1: not too many. I don't like to be fake with people,
- 12:00Speaker 1: know what I mean? But what do we have to
- 12:01Speaker 1: talk about other than you know, rap music or something
- 12:04Speaker 1: like that. You know right now, Alchemist, you was one
- 12:07Speaker 1: of the architects of that ninety sound. What makes you
- 12:09Speaker 1: gravitate towards Bronson? I mean, you know, first when we
- 12:13Speaker 1: met it was like, first just music. I dug his stuff,
- 12:16Speaker 1: and then we kind of clicked because you know, when
- 12:18Speaker 1: you make music, you end up in my travels, just
- 12:20Speaker 1: like you make the best music with the people you're cool.
- 12:23Speaker 1: So we just kind of clipped, like I liked. I
- 12:25Speaker 1: don't remember what it was when we first met. I
- 12:27Speaker 1: think he let me like, I've chasting him, hooked me
- 12:29Speaker 1: up with some weed, and he just gave me an
- 12:30Speaker 1: ounce and was like take that. I think it was
- 12:32Speaker 1: that it was something like that. I mean, you know,
- 12:37Speaker 1: because he's like one of the people I grew up.
- 12:41Speaker 1: You know, not to say he's an old man, but
- 12:43Speaker 1: you know he's not now, but you know that that
- 12:46Speaker 1: was first, you know, it was the music. Then we
- 12:48Speaker 1: linked and I was like this kids, you know what
- 12:49Speaker 1: I mean, this is somebody I could be, you know,
- 12:51Speaker 1: friends with him. We kind of linked like that, and
- 12:53Speaker 1: through time him coming out to LA, were working and
- 12:56Speaker 1: we just built a relationship where it was like that's
- 12:58Speaker 1: how we broke the ice to make more than just
- 13:00Speaker 1: a joint here there. And I know I know what
- 13:03Speaker 1: he's about now, and I know how to fit the
- 13:05Speaker 1: right beats. So when we get up it's like a
- 13:07Speaker 1: guarantee we're gonna make something anytime. Well, I take rap
- 13:10Speaker 1: literally mass it's a few things off the album. I
- 13:11Speaker 1: need to know. Can you really speak six languages and
- 13:13Speaker 1: three voices? I can speak two languages and two and
- 13:17Speaker 1: a half voices, but I just speak English and Spanish
- 13:21Speaker 1: and I understand a little bit of Albanian, but I
- 13:23Speaker 1: don't speak it fluently, which I'm embarrassed about not. I'm
- 13:26Speaker 1: gonna be honest, be honest. Have you ever really been
- 13:28Speaker 1: in first class with a heart because I thought one
- 13:32Speaker 1: million percent, like coming back from Texas, I had a
- 13:34Speaker 1: heart on and I was sitting random Or are you
- 13:38Speaker 1: thinking a lot of times when you fly? I don't
- 13:40Speaker 1: know something about had on coming back from Austin. Yeah,
- 13:47Speaker 1: it's a separation, fam You don't need to know that
- 13:51Speaker 1: because you know daydreaming or is it just a random
- 13:55Speaker 1: it's it's the pressure of something that only morning wards
- 13:59Speaker 1: on first class exactly? Just you know, damn, I'm up here,
- 14:01Speaker 1: I got all this room, might as well get comfortable.
- 14:03Speaker 1: But if you guys both we wouldn't know, we wouldn't
- 14:07Speaker 1: be convers You wouldn't know about that. And you also
- 14:15Speaker 1: said overseas you probably got mad kids you don't even
- 14:18Speaker 1: know about. That could be a possibility. You gotta start
- 14:20Speaker 1: winning condoms overseas. Listen. I never rappers think when they're
- 14:28Speaker 1: overseas it doesn't count. They wear different outfits straight up.
- 14:35Speaker 1: I know. I know dudes that only wear certain tight
- 14:38Speaker 1: shirts and they will not wear that. In New York
- 14:41Speaker 1: they paid homage to Lost Boys too. You said you'd
- 14:44Speaker 1: resurrect Freaky Tie to do. I have to man that
- 14:46Speaker 1: I grew up on that the LB family. You know, Um,
- 14:51Speaker 1: he's just one of the best. You know, he's like,
- 14:53Speaker 1: he's kind of like Megos are now he was he
- 14:55Speaker 1: started that crazy ad stuff in the back. You know,
- 15:00Speaker 1: do you feel like this is your debut album? Though
- 15:02Speaker 1: it is my debut album because I put a lot
- 15:05Speaker 1: more work into this than I did a lot of
- 15:07Speaker 1: other projects, like the Blue Chips stuff. That's really like
- 15:12Speaker 1: just having fun and going in. It's not really like
- 15:14Speaker 1: taking time to listen to the EQ of the drum
- 15:18Speaker 1: or the EQ of the base. On this project, I
- 15:20Speaker 1: really really dug in and like was in the studio
- 15:23Speaker 1: for of everything being done. Yes and no, yes, because
- 15:32Speaker 1: you know you want to make you want to show
- 15:34Speaker 1: that you know, you're on that level of artists where
- 15:38Speaker 1: people dying to just buy your music. I've given a
- 15:41Speaker 1: lot of stuff out for free, and I've made a
- 15:43Speaker 1: lot of money on the road, So in that sense,
- 15:47Speaker 1: I don't care. But now I'm not dealing with an
- 15:49Speaker 1: independent situation. I'm dealing with people that are looking at
- 15:52Speaker 1: me like, oh, they're only gonna, you know, do better
- 15:55Speaker 1: for you when you're showing that you're moving for them.
- 15:59Speaker 1: So me making numbers happen, It's gonna be a lot
- 16:05Speaker 1: more helpful for myself in my situation with the label,
- 16:08Speaker 1: and they're gonna want to push me more and do
- 16:10Speaker 1: more things possibly, you know what I mean. Did you
- 16:14Speaker 1: think about things like what is my first single gonna be?
- 16:16Speaker 1: Is it's a radio friendly song? Things that you never
- 16:18Speaker 1: thought about before the rappers. Rappers think that every new
- 16:22Speaker 1: song is their single. You know, the newest song that
- 16:24Speaker 1: they just made is the single I thought mad songs
- 16:27Speaker 1: on my single. I don't know what a single is,
- 16:30Speaker 1: but baby Blue, the new one, is definitely my best shot. Right.
- 16:35Speaker 1: I like that, and I think crazy. I hear that
- 16:37Speaker 1: on the radio. It's on the radio a lot, but
- 16:39Speaker 1: I would you know it? I don't know, I can't
- 16:42Speaker 1: call it baby Blue is more of a musical Yeah,
- 16:46Speaker 1: it's more of a musical piece. The other one is
- 16:48Speaker 1: more of a it's like a street single. But that's
- 16:51Speaker 1: good because then that keeps you, you know, it keeps
- 16:53Speaker 1: me on both sides your core fan base without the
- 16:58Speaker 1: one that's a little different for you. Listen. Yeah, I
- 17:04Speaker 1: don't know how these people think. Honestly, I just don't
