- 4:58Speaker 3: I'm happy that I'm one month in right now.
- 5:00Speaker 2: So so you had like, were you depending on the adderall?
- 5:02Speaker 2: Because I know a lot of my friends who like
- 5:03Speaker 2: are engineers.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Yeah, like, for sure, when I'm drinking and all that stuff,
- 5:08Speaker 1: and I need when I drink too a lot, so
- 5:12Speaker 1: like I'm messing them together. It's making me drink even
- 5:16Speaker 1: more than normally, so and I'm staying up longer. So
- 5:19Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, fuck it. I was depending on it
- 5:21Speaker 1: for sure, and yeah, right now I'm not.
- 5:24Speaker 2: You know, what's the longest you stayed up?
- 5:27Speaker 3: Like two days? Bastically, that's.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Not good for you.

- 5:34Speaker 2: Was it a productive two days at least?
- 5:36Speaker 3: Yeah? Super productive?
- 5:38Speaker 1: That's one thing I will say, like when I do
- 5:40Speaker 1: drink and all these things, not just for fun and games.
- 5:43Speaker 1: I do it for creative, to be more creative if
- 5:47Speaker 1: I'm in a stuck place like you know, that's why
- 5:50Speaker 1: I do it. But for sure I've got so much
- 5:53Speaker 1: good things out of it, like ideas, even talks of
- 5:56Speaker 1: my teams, like I'll be it'll be more productive on
- 5:59Speaker 1: my side, you know.
- 6:00Speaker 3: So I don't do it for just fun and games. Realistic.
- 6:03Speaker 2: So I just found out that you're half Mexican.

- 6:17Speaker 1: I don't know Spanish.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Who cares?
- 6:19Speaker 1: I know, I know, but I feel like I want
- 6:21Speaker 1: to get more with the culture first.
- 6:23Speaker 2: I don't think. Do you know who O Jiz is?
- 6:25Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I have a song and shuttle O g ninety.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Percent sure he doesn't know Spanish.

- 14:00Speaker 1: doesn't really like I starved too much of it in
- 14:04Speaker 1: my songs too, So I don't really played around her
- 14:07Speaker 1: or anything like that. And like I don't really play
- 14:10Speaker 1: my music around here, so like I and when she
- 14:13Speaker 1: hears my music, so to be like you swearing this
- 14:16Speaker 1: this this, So I tried not to swear as much.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Like yeah, where would you say? Like first of all,
- 14:24Speaker 2: how long like did you start rapping? Like how long
- 14:26Speaker 2: has it been since you kind of first started taking
- 14:28Speaker 2: this serious?
- 14:29Speaker 3: So probably like seven years ago.
- 14:35Speaker 1: But that was when I first started rapping and I
- 14:37Speaker 1: was in a group of three people. It was three
- 14:41Speaker 1: of us, and I was like I always say this,
- 14:44Speaker 1: it's just funny because I was like the least favorite
- 14:47Speaker 1: in the group. Was because I didn't rap. They forced
- 14:50Speaker 1: me to get on the song because I set up
- 14:51Speaker 1: the studio session for them because I'm like, yo, you guys,
- 14:55Speaker 1: after I got expelled from the English school in two
- 14:57Speaker 1: months of being there, I'm like, yo, you guys are sick,
- 15:01Speaker 1: Like you guys keep freestyling the hood, and I see
- 15:03Speaker 1: the potential and them, I set up a studio session
- 15:06Speaker 1: and then they went they did their first song. Yeah,
- 15:09Speaker 1: and I'm like, fuck, I never even wrapped the day
- 15:12Speaker 1: of my life. I don't know how to do. I
- 15:15Speaker 1: alven know any flows.
- 15:16Speaker 3: Nothing.
- 15:17Speaker 1: I did my first song, and that's how my flow
- 15:20Speaker 1: came about.
- 15:20Speaker 3: Was it nothing? I thought of nothing?
- 15:23Speaker 2: It was just your first song, you automatically.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just how I said it. I kind
- 15:27Speaker 1: of premeditated nothing, you know. So yeah, that was my
- 15:32Speaker 1: first song.
- 15:32Speaker 3: And then from there we had it.
- 15:35Speaker 1: We gained a little traction, and then we just kept going,
- 15:39Speaker 1: dropping a song probably every three months. And then we
- 15:42Speaker 1: all got arrested together in a raid, and then we
- 15:45Speaker 1: became cold cues, so then we couldn't make music together.
- 15:49Speaker 1: So then cold cues were like, when let's say me
- 15:53Speaker 1: and you, we get you.
- 15:54Speaker 2: Guys aren't allowed to legally hang out here.

- 16:46Speaker 3: I see someone sends.
- 16:47Speaker 1: Me uh uh a DM Like, yo, look at this
- 16:53Speaker 1: when phone starts going crazy, says Smiley.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Drake comments under one of his boys.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Instagram post that he posted one of my videos and
- 17:04Speaker 1: that was us in the group. Also we did like
- 17:07Speaker 1: a group song and then he commented Smiley Eco's goal.
- 17:11Speaker 3: And then at that time, I didn't even know what

- 17:15Speaker 2: I'm like, like, why did you call me?
- 17:16Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, no ways this to me, and like
- 17:19Speaker 1: I was literally a fan of him, like from before
- 17:23Speaker 1: I knew he knew who I was.
- 17:24Speaker 3: Type of ship Drake.
- 17:26Speaker 1: No, But like at those times, the hood guys and

- 23:53Speaker 1: I just now that I overthink it. Sometimes they don't
- 23:57Speaker 1: hit the saandside. Try not to overthink it, you know.
- 24:00Speaker 1: But it's so funny now nowadays when I record, I
- 24:03Speaker 1: don't really care for the ad libs most of the songs.
- 24:06Speaker 1: I won't even do ad thems somewhere until I know
- 24:08Speaker 1: I'm picking these songs for a tape and then yeah,
- 24:11Speaker 1: But like now, I don't.
- 24:12Speaker 3: Before I was migos so great.

- 24:32Speaker 1: listened to all the critiques and I take it in,
- 24:35Speaker 1: you know, so now I try to say that yeah
- 24:38Speaker 1: in a different way.
- 24:39Speaker 2: Of not saying the way you're saying it.
- 24:40Speaker 3: Bro.
- 24:40Speaker 1: Sometimes I try to change it up because I like
- 24:43Speaker 1: to take the critiques, you know.

- 25:48Speaker 1: are Shazzam in my song.
- 25:50Speaker 3: So yeah, that's sick.
- 25:52Speaker 1: But yeah, just more music coming and yeah, just trying
- 25:56Speaker 1: to motivate the people. I'm trying to go four months
- 25:59Speaker 1: sober right now. If I do that, that would be
- 26:01Speaker 1: my biggest record. This record was so much sober. One
- 26:06Speaker 1: that's just off. Is that off a liquor and adderall everything?
- 26:09Speaker 1: I know, cold Turkey and from my first record, I
- 26:12Speaker 1: wasn't a nickeoteine guy when I did.
- 26:14Speaker 3: My first Your Smoked cigarettes.
- 26:16Speaker 1: No, I wasn't doing that, so that wasn't part of addiction.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Now when I did it, I was a vapor. I
- 26:23Speaker 1: smoked cigarettes. So now I'm cold turkey extra thing.
- 26:26Speaker 3: You know.
- 26:26Speaker 2: So you're not doing vaping anymore?
- 26:27Speaker 3: Nothing. I feel like that's not sober if I don't
- 26:30Speaker 3: do everything.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Yeah, the vaping is also probably like worse for you
- 26:35Speaker 2: than yeah than weed, super were you smoking super bad?
- 26:38Speaker 3: No?
- 26:39Speaker 1: More, not more the uppers more and more alcohol than
- 26:42Speaker 1: weed weed, anxiety level fucking out.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Through Yeah, four months sober?
- 26:48Speaker 1: Yeah, I need you to go year sober, and you
- 26:50Speaker 1: know it's so crazy now a year. I'll go four
- 26:53Speaker 1: months first, but like my birthday is coming out August sixth,
- 26:57Speaker 1: so and right now I'm planning to this goal do
- 27:00Speaker 1: that sober.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Also, it's a tough day to get through, so.
- 27:04Speaker 1: It's better if I do it this time right now,
- 27:06Speaker 1: because it's the hardest time to be sober, which is summer, right,
- 27:10Speaker 1: So if I do it, yeah, then I would know
- 27:13Speaker 1: I'd be good for the rest of the year.
- 27:15Speaker 2: And you've got the album out, so it's not like
- 27:17Speaker 2: you got to be like super you know, you don't
- 27:18Speaker 2: got to record, which I'm sure recording.
- 27:19Speaker 3: No, I still record.
- 27:20Speaker 1: I canceld my release party to bring it in the
- 27:24Speaker 1: studio because two reasons. I want to obviously make more music.
- 27:28Speaker 1: And I'm like, why am I gonna have a release
- 27:30Speaker 1: party if I'm not gonna really enjoy it and turn up,
- 27:33Speaker 1: you know, I'd rather just do it in the studio.
- 27:36Speaker 1: And yeah, and because it's yeah, like you know, because
- 27:40Speaker 1: I'm like, the thing is with being sober is I
- 27:44Speaker 1: like to leave. I could go to party still and
- 27:46Speaker 1: not drink, but I like to leave. When I want
- 27:48Speaker 1: to leave. If it's my own party, I can't leave.
- 27:50Speaker 2: It's the worst.
- 27:51Speaker 3: I have to fucking stay like a fucking guy.
