• 15:29
  Speaker 5: was like, I just love the craft. And so it's
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: a long story. I try to make sure, but you
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: talk a little bit when I So when I graduated,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: had no money. I lived in High Park and so
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: my manager at the time, he was like, yo, bro,
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: you're natural in front of the camera. Why don't you
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: just try to act? You know, why don't you get

  Speaker 5: in front of you know, why don't you go to
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: the city and.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Just see what it is.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: This is before social media was social media, so you
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: have to actually go and hand your resume in front
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: of all these booking agents and everything.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: So no one took me, bro. Everyone was like, I
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: don't know, you have never seen you. But the coolest
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: thing about it was the last place I went to
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: was a boutique agency and her son went to Northwestern,
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: so she was like, let me just make sure like
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: alumni is okay. She's like, I don't know if you
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: could act, but I'll take you in because you need something.

• 16:33
  Speaker 5: You're not gonna get the role because it's already taken,
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: so just get used to auditioning. So when I went
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: in that same day, Kelsey Grammar was basically saying thank
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: you for all the casting that they were doing. So
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: she was like, yo, you know what, Kelsey, just watch

• 17:04
  Speaker 5: not knowing. He was like, you know what, it's get special.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: I got the I got the job three four days later.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Damn. So they fired old boy. You weren't supposed to

  Speaker 1: I was supposed to get it for your first acting
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Like premiere was in front of Kelsey girl.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Like that's a lot of personal exactly.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: I didn't even really care who he was. I was
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: on some music shock, you know. I don't know if
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: you remember when you had the rubber bands, like the website.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: I was passing road Tommy Music.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Dot Com to everybody.
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: Bro.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: Literally, I didn't care about none of that. I was
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: on some other you know. So like for me, it
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: was let me get my music out there. And then
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: three four days later they called me. You got the job,
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: so they fired old boy. So then they give me
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty thousand.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Oh then you turns up.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: I was scared, bro. I didn't even know what I
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: got the job for.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: So my first acting job was on set, and my
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: first acting class.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Was on set. Oh ship yeah, bro.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: So Kelsey was like, yo, camera left is this camera?
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: This is where you stand. These little things are called side.
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: So like my whole experience was like in the moment, go.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: But you've learned it from one of the best producers
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: come on, man, and one of lead actor. So it's like,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I guess your learning curve or whatever you want to
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: like this, it's fire, but it's fired. You got somebody
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: that's like him teaching you and telling you how to
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: go and what it should look like exactly. I mean, bro,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: it's like it's like learning from Lebron.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: Basically, it's like it's like a nigga shooting in the gym,
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: like genuinely and like just killing everybody. And he's like, Yo,
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: how long you've been playing basketball? This is my first day?
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: And like all right, well just just come come try
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: out for the Lakers and you make the team. And
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: it's like it's like one of those situations that's it's
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: just God ordained.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Bro, because you know he made girlfriends right, Yeah, yeah,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I was just making sure everybody like you.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: That's was like for that to be like your first
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: running and I thought you was gonna say some other
• 19:10

• 19:12
  Speaker 2: It was meant to be.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was meant to fact.
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: It was one of those things where it's like you
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: just trust the process, bro. And then the funny thing too,
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: while I was filming Boss, Courtney Camp the Creative Power,
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: she was watching Boss, so she was like, who is
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: that kid? So while she was creating it, it became.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: A situation where it was like it's meant to be.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: It was meant to be.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: It was always cool, bro, nigga went from zero to
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty thousand. Yeah, but what did you

• 35:25
  Speaker 1: show that everybody looks forward to? It's like I'm one
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: of the people. Summertime, I'm skipping the club midnight? Come
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: on twelve and one Star slowed up the drink.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: I need to see it. What's it like being a
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: part of a cult following?
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: Bro?
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: You don't even know you, Like, you don't even really
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: know you a part of something so special because you're
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: just working. You know what I'm saying, Like you hear
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: the noise, but it's like I gotta deliver it. I
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: knew that every time I stepped on set it was
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: gonna be special. But at the same time, it was like, damn, like,
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: I can't mess up, bro, I gotta I gotta drive,
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: I gotta drive it.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I gotta be this.
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: So I again, I'm an athlete mentality at heart. So
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: whether it was Amari, whether it was Joe Shikora who
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: played Tommy, whether it was Michael Rainey who played Tariq,
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: I was trying to dominate every scene. So I was
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: trying to make sure that you remembered Dre, you know
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: what I mean. And everybody had the same mindset. So
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: that's what made us great, you know what I mean.
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: I think you said something a couple of months ago.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: You're like, yo, you're.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Competing against your team, you know what I mean. That's
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: really what it is, you know what I mean.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: So like it felt that way everybody because we didn't
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: so basically we didn't start.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: No one was.
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: Stars, bro, no one was flying, no one was the
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: guy I can stand next to Drake Chris Brown this
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: and be just as relevant, you know. And the battle
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: in the battle was all right, don't get big headed, bro,
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: Like you know, you got to be on set tomorrow.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Just keep killing.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: I've seen a lot of actors be like damn, I
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: finally made it, I'm here and just fall off.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: For me, it was like all this motivation, you know,
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: I gotta keep killing, you know what I mean? And
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: so does that come from your parents though?
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: People you grounded like your pops and ship. Yeah, it
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: came from just being just being again like.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but at the same time innately like I'm a
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: savage bro.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean.
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: So like for me, mentally, I just want to just
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: dominate everything. You know, certain people have that type of mindset,
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: you know, some people just naturally gifted.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: I happened to be not.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: I didn't take an acting class a music class in
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: my life, so I never experience what it is to
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: be taught this.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: I just know that I just want to just dominate.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: So that's why I trust my intuition.
• 37:47
  Speaker 5: So any actors out there, any musicians out there, just
• 37:50
  Speaker 5: trust your intuition, trust your instincts, and in trusting God man,
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: Like that's what gided me.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Those three things got in me, you know, to where
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: I'm at now.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: A lot of God giving ability. That's a fact, Like
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: one of them ones for real? No classes class okay,
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: so for you never took class? Like what is I
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: hope I answered the question? Yeah, okay before be here
• 38:15

  Speaker 1: I want to ask you, like, what is it like

  Speaker 1: to like because you could have been a hated character
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: on the show why people love you and people hate you?

• 39:22
  Speaker 2: that makes you doing your jump like this is fake.
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: But you gotta understand, bro, Like we're in people's living

  Speaker 3: So like you you escape to.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: This world and you feel like you're a family member,
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: you know, And I have to realize. I'm like, damn,
• 39:52

  Speaker 5: Tyres told me and Jamie told me Shout out to
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: both of them. Shout out to Jamie Fox and Tyres.
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: The illest thing they told me, bro, was they all
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: knew that music is my heart. So they were like, yo,
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: just kill this and make them want to research who's
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: killing this. You know what I'm saying, understood, And so

• 40:35
  Speaker 5: One is a compliment, two it's also it's also a
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: testament to how you're affecting people, but keep killing it

  Speaker 5: to be like, yo, who is actually playing Drake and
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: they just start doing this, Oh his name is wrote Timmy.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: Oh wow.
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: Then they start following everything else. So that was the
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: ills like advice that I've ever received. Man Like, just
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: killed to the point where they have to know who
• 41:02

  Speaker 1: like I knew I was successful at basketball, and I'm like,
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: my little brother is better than me, like our family is.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: We go thank you.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: I want you to outdo everything I did. Like ever,
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: so in high school, I was hard on him. So
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: when he was a young guy and he was ranked
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: number one to two in the country or whatever, I
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: would be like, man, you ain't you ain't ship. You're weak, bro,
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: I'm tired of you. I'm like that's light though, Like
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: you ain't gonna make it to the league. And then
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: we make to the league. I was the same type
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: of thing. But I'm still proud of them to this day.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: Like I'm so happy for him he made to the NBA.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: He had you know, he living a cool ass, like tough.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: I was always happy for him because I wasn't ranked. Really,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: I was like I was unknown for like my whole
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: because I was like bloomer. I was a street I
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: was a street basketball player.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: Everybody everybody knew. Oh yeah, everybody knew was cold. They
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: knew me.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: But like I hung out with my crowd my friends
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: was different, like g o here, Big fifty. They had
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: a team, they knew fifty team. They wouldn't going to
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: the same parties I.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: Was going to. Yeah, I was, yeah, And if you
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: see me now, I.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: Still go to different parties and everybody, but I was
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: going to the algorithms.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: My rhythm was different. I like that algorithm by the way, yes, sir,
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: but I was. I was with my guy. Some of
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: my friends went to prison, and it's not a bad thing,
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: but my friends.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: I was thinking of basketball the way they like, he's
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: been NBA since we thought No.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: I wasn't thinking like that.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: So when my little brother was in the same position
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: kind of like Greg he was one two in the nation,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, we're.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Not letting you not make it to the NBA. That's tough.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: So I was always happy for him. I don't have
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: a hate bone in my body like Bro. I can't
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: because I want everybody to win.
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: That's rare. That's rare, Bro.
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: Why not though? Most niggas hate Bro?
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: But is that heavy? Is that heavy?
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: Let's just make it simple. Is it heavy in your industry? Absolutely?
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Why I hate though?
• 51:31
  Speaker 5: Because niggas is insecurity, ego, pride, jealousy, trauma.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: But what that's going to do for them? Like, if
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: you winning. What's that going to do for me to
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: hate on you? I'll really be with the winners. I
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: always want to be with the winners.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: It's that logical. But most people look at it like
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: a crap.
• 51:53
  Speaker 5: I only are people look at it like that, Bro,
• 51:56
  Speaker 5: Like we only people that be like, man, that nigga
• 51:58
  Speaker 5: is sixty years old and he looked end. But the
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: other side will be like, look at Garth Brooks, he's
• 52:04
  Speaker 5: sixty and he's just amazing.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: Our whole mindset is just hate hate, hate, hate hate.
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: I ain't got that. I don't champion nothing, Bro Barrow.
• 52:14
  Speaker 5: It's survival, you know what I mean? Like I got everything,
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: it's it's survival.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, almost got that.
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: Like ninety percent of our people, bro, are just angry
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: at their life. They're not happy with themselves. They need validation.
• 52:31
  Speaker 5: It's a lot of things that like if another man
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: doing well, they look at it like why ain't that me?
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: Why ain't that mean? I ain't gonna say that you
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: think so?
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: You don't mean that percentage is crazy?
• 52:50
  Speaker 8: There?
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: One hundred, you give it no like forty. Look I like,
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: look at my man, it's like behind I knew behind
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: for were years. I knew DJ for years and like
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: to see him like have a following, people like liking man.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: It's like like people come to me and be like
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: be hearing carry y'all show and niggas think I'm like
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: they want a reaction from me, and I'm like, good,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: won't be here.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: You want to see a way for you to say.
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: How many?
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: How many people? How many people try to do that though,
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: I mean a bunch of people do that, like people thousands.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie thousands people say that to me.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: But my mindset is so different because it's like it's
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: a want group to win. I want everybody to like
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: you when you drop when you like, I want you
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: to win every time. I don't want like when like
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: when we talk about NBA players, they be like, oh
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: he you know people other other shows be like he
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: got overpaid, were like.
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: The bank.
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: Get because y'all life don't matter to us and we
• 54:04
  Speaker 3: don't really give a fuck, bro, Like what is your
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: your life not gonna change my life?
• 54:08
  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: I get no.
• 54:10
  Speaker 5: I think in the music, in the music business and
• 54:12
  Speaker 5: in acting world, bro, it's so crabbing a barrel that
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: and it's not a lot of jobs for African Americans
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: that no one really champions anybody.
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: I think it's more like why did I? Why did
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: he get that?
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: Why did I?
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: Instead of me? I think?
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: But they live and we just came off a strike too.
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but y'all live.
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: Y'all live though, Okay, like basketball players, is kind of
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: like you get paid for like literally your production and
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: what you do. So Jeff average thirty or whatever he's
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: getting Like when Bro he be I know you watch it,
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: he'd be like, all I need is fourteen and seven.
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm getting this money with y'all. Is not like
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: that for real.
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: And I'm not saying, hey, it's cool, but I was
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: like him Bro teavy record and took off? How his
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: ship take off and my ship they probably feel like
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: my ship better than I'm not justifying it, but I'm
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: saying it's looked at different respect from my role, even
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: a movie role.
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: I look better than this.
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: I look better.
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: They only got a six pen.
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: Like, but I'm saying for me, I would rather him
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: funk with me. So if I'm like Bro got a
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: roll or Bro music is popping, I'm gonna post it
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: and he might like, damn HEU with my music.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: Damn let me do.
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: Let me do with him like damn, bro really rock
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: on my ship. I'm gonna fuck with him.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: Look, that's different, bro. That's why you're successful.
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: Bro, that is you know what I mean? Like, most
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: people don't do that. Bro, I understand.
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: I understand it from like boats not saying I understand
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: that he I'm saying, like because people like see you thriving,
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: and it's a probably a motherfucker that's been thirsty to
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: get a while on the record, big facts.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: How this nigga don't even do music for real?
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: Like your house that was.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: It's like, it's different brof B.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, can what I'm saying, I would be my mind
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: might be for I'm sad that on the record that
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: ship hard bro. You like insecure?
• 56:24
  Speaker 5: Like insecure bro, most most most most artists, actors, most
• 56:31
  Speaker 5: creatives are insecure human beings.
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: Bro. You know what I'm saying. I believe that that's
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: real fact.
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: And sometimes they can use the insecurity to thrive or
• 56:43
  Speaker 5: use the insecurity to just hate. And most don't know
• 56:48
  Speaker 5: how to support because they're not They're not comfortable with themselves,
• 56:52
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. And so like for me,
• 56:55
  Speaker 5: I'm the same way. I'm like, yo, go crazy because
• 56:57
  Speaker 5: what you do ain't gonna affect me.
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: That was meant for you.
• 57:01
  Speaker 5: Again, a lot of people don't have Again, this is me.
• 57:03
  Speaker 5: I'm spiritual, I got God.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: What's meant for me?
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: It's gonna be for mine. Like doing it was a
• 57:11
  Speaker 5: shout out to Mike bro Like doing you'rall show. We've
• 57:13
  Speaker 5: been talking about this for a year and a half.
• 57:16
  Speaker 5: The timing and the time and the time and didn't
• 57:18
  Speaker 5: make sense, But it makes sense now. You know who
• 57:21
  Speaker 5: knows what's gonna come from it? You know what I'm saying.
• 57:23
  Speaker 5: So like again, it's just being confident with himself and
• 57:27
  Speaker 5: most people aren't confident within themselves.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: Is it features or do you even see them like that? Hmmm,
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: that's a good question.
• 57:36
  Speaker 5: It's not hargetting features, But it's more so I'm in
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: a situation mentally where I just want to just show
• 57:42
  Speaker 5: that I could do it myself, got it personally.
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: Because you're doing the to this shit. It's crazy. We ain't.
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: I ain't where I'm gonna say.
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: I haven't paid acisions to that since DeMar Nelly what
• 57:53
  Speaker 3: Nelly did, so I didn't roll them tapped in doing
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: Double Sided, you really like, Yeah, it was the first
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: time even both of your audiences what they want.
• 58:02
  Speaker 5: It was the first time having an R and B
• 58:04
  Speaker 5: I had non songs R and B, non songs afrobeasts.
• 58:08
  Speaker 5: No one else has ever done that, you know what
• 58:10
  Speaker 5: I mean. So for me, it was just like just
• 58:12
  Speaker 5: show my African American side and my Nigerian side, you know,
• 58:16
  Speaker 5: and so it just felt right.
• 58:18
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: Is there a different process when you make those different
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: types of music. I mean, I know it's kind of similar,
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: but is there a difference when you make an R
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: and B record more or less an afrobeats record to
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: an extent, No, it's just.
• 58:27
  Speaker 5: It just feels whatever the beat leads to. I mean,
• 58:31
  Speaker 5: like I just I just I just rock bro whatever
• 58:34
  Speaker 5: feels right. Again, the same thing with acting, They were like, yo,
• 58:37
  Speaker 5: the character is supposed to be this, and I'll just
• 58:39
  Speaker 5: literally just give what I feel and usually it works,
• 58:43
  Speaker 5: you know, like Dre Right for example, I'll go back
• 58:45
  Speaker 5: to Drake because it is what it is, like Dre
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: would be season two. I didn't have that many lines.
• 58:52
  Speaker 5: It was all about eye contact. So basically before I
• 58:57
  Speaker 5: got Dre, I studied al Pacino, Robert de Niro, Ed Norton,
• 59:03
  Speaker 5: Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Denzel I studied what they did
• 59:07
  Speaker 5: with their eyes, like what they literally, how they look,
• 59:10
  Speaker 5: what it made, what made them go this way, what
• 59:13
  Speaker 5: made them just angry?
• 59:14
  Speaker 10: What?
• 59:15
  Speaker 5: I study what they did because I didn't have that
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: many lines. So I was like, how can I impact

  Speaker 5: this role with no lines to make people be like
• 59:25
  Speaker 5: he's up to something. Oh, okay, you get what I'm saying.

  Speaker 5: of nothing.

• 59:53
  Speaker 1: early normal nigga. He used to make a lot of
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: non verbal contacts with people. He used to be crazy,
