1:39
Speaker 1: life itself, you know what I'm saying, and growth. You know,
1:41
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta stand across the street from yourself

1:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, with the mind frame for this album right listening
1:50
Speaker 3: to the album, the one thing I always say about
1:53
Speaker 3: the baby is I don't think people respect you as
1:56
Speaker 3: a lyricist as you as they should.
1:58
Speaker 1: Ryew, they got me fucked.
1:58
Speaker 3: Up listening to the Jesus Christ cussing up a storm
2:05
Speaker 3: now listening to the album Man You, I mean, I
2:07
Speaker 3: love to hear you spitting. I love the I love
2:09
Speaker 3: the songs as a DJ because I love to play
2:10
Speaker 3: the records in the club. But I love when you
2:12
Speaker 3: when you rap and rapping. That reminds me back in
2:14
Speaker 3: the day when we used to go to Charlotte and
2:16
Speaker 3: see you out there passing.
2:17
Speaker 1: I'll see these and MoMA's back to that. The baby
2:19
Speaker 1: with that intentional. It was super intentional. You know what
2:21
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I ain't I ain't shy shy away from it.
2:24
Speaker 1: I won't even say shy away from it because I
2:26
Speaker 1: ain't never been you know, I ain't ever been shy
2:28
Speaker 1: about getting in front of a microphone and just rapping
2:30
Speaker 1: like I actually love doing it. But I ain't dumb
2:32
Speaker 1: it down or try to, you know, let me make
2:35
Speaker 1: a hit or satisfy you get what I'm saying. A
2:37
Speaker 1: particular audience, like it was really important to me with
2:40
Speaker 1: this project to like make sure that I wanted to
2:42
Speaker 1: re establish. You know what I'm saying, my audience, you
2:44
Speaker 1: get what I'm saying, and like, you know, it was
2:47
Speaker 1: really important that this ship checked all the boxes and
2:49
Speaker 1: really shows you, you know what I'm saying, like what
2:51
Speaker 1: I could do and really put the shit on display,
2:53
Speaker 1: because before you know, I make a club record, I
2:55
Speaker 1: make a bang. I know how to do that. I
2:56
Speaker 1: know how to market them, I know how to blow
2:58
Speaker 1: it up. I know how to do all that. But
2:59
Speaker 1: that's something everybody can do. You get what I'm saying,
3:01
Speaker 1: Like when it comes to just that raw talent, that
3:04
Speaker 1: raw lyricism, Like get in front of a microphone just rapping,
3:07
Speaker 1: not all them extra instruments in the beat, open that
3:09
Speaker 1: bitch up and let me just give me a blank
3:11
Speaker 1: canvas and let me paint, like I definitely, like I know,
3:15
Speaker 1: I understand, like I'm one of the best in this
3:17
Speaker 1: shit right now and doing this shit, so I ain't
3:19
Speaker 1: shy away from it. I made sure I got like
3:21
Speaker 1: eight nine records on there. I almost made a full
3:24
Speaker 1: blown what they call them, conscious album to get what
3:27
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But I'm like, nah, like nah, still, you
3:30
Speaker 1: know it's less to me, you know what I'm saying,
3:33
Speaker 1: I'm like an onion. It's less to me something. I
3:35
Speaker 1: gotta make sure, you know, I showcase each and their
3:38
Speaker 1: last one of them, like at the highest level. When
3:40
Speaker 1: that's how I come up with twenty three songs.
3:44
Speaker 2: Intro you said, you're never rapping about that childishit no more.
3:47
Speaker 1: I've been growing up.
3:49
Speaker 2: Look like I always felt like you had a good
3:51
Speaker 2: balance of both.
3:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I don't you know, only the only the
3:57
Speaker 1: turn up ship, only the you know, like like I
3:59
Speaker 1: said in the other I don't know. It may be
4:00
Speaker 1: that song too, and that's a different song. But like
4:03
Speaker 1: you know, just making club records, party records, I know
4:05
Speaker 1: how to make them shake some masks. I know how
4:07
Speaker 1: to get the party started all that, so I wouldn't
4:09
Speaker 1: even necessarily call it childish. You know what I'm saying.
4:11
Speaker 1: But you know, just the fact that I understand that
4:14
Speaker 1: I can I can do so much more. And I'm
4:16
Speaker 1: not leaning in and you know, walking in my purpose fully.
4:21
Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying. Like I ain't really showcasing
4:23
Speaker 1: like all my gifts, you feel me. I'm just giving
4:26
Speaker 1: energy and I could really put something on your mind.
4:29
Speaker 1: I could teach you something. You get what I'm saying,
4:31
Speaker 1: and I can make it sound good. I can make
4:32
Speaker 1: you feel good while I'm teaching it something like I
4:34
Speaker 1: can you know, I can get in there and dance
4:36
Speaker 1: with the best of them. So, yeah, that was childish
4:39
Speaker 1: a media not you know, really lean all the way
4:41
Speaker 1: into that shit and half a decade ago, because I
4:43
Speaker 1: could have been doing that off the rip, you know
4:45
Speaker 1: what I mean.
4:46
Speaker 6: And you got a feel with them, you got a
4:47
Speaker 6: few bunce saying, but then you got records like Mike check. Yeah,
4:52
Speaker 6: those like when you went off on it. Were you
4:55
Speaker 6: more excited to do those kind of records?
4:58
Speaker 1: I was because the other ones, I mean, I hadn't
4:59
Speaker 1: been there done that. Everybody know I can you know,
5:01
Speaker 1: I can make them shake some ass. Everybody know I
5:03
Speaker 1: can turn the party up. But the other ones, I
5:05
Speaker 1: was definitely. I was super excited to really do them.
5:08
Speaker 1: And and you know, and really I want to leave
5:10
Speaker 1: mo fuckering speechless after they hit that shit. You know
5:12
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I want to I want to come
5:14

6:49
Speaker 1: Often, like people testing because he's a nice niggain't like
6:54
Speaker 1: that was like the first time, and that's why it
6:55
Speaker 1: kind of threw me off. And you know, if you
6:57
Speaker 1: watch the video, and I wasn't on those serious type time,
7:00
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't. It's really the security guards that worked
7:03

7:05
Speaker 1: Horness game or whatever. But he like got his hands
7:09
Speaker 1: so much of like hold like he hold me back,
7:10
Speaker 1: so it make it look like you know what I'm saying,
7:12
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't sure, and I just wanted to look
7:14
Speaker 1: the nigga in the eyes and said, I'm let me

Speaker 1: take I don't that's why I don't like wearing shades too,
7:18

7:29
Speaker 1: of the day. So I just wanted to look at
7:31

7:33
Speaker 1: the time I took the shades off and turned around
7:35
Speaker 1: and told him, like, bro, watch out, I'm not I'm

Speaker 1: ain't even like he don't even know, like because he
7:51
Speaker 1: even pos like he posted it, but like he don't know,
7:54
Speaker 1: like like you know, like when that type of shit
7:57
Speaker 1: would have got you a different reaction from me, Like
7:59
Speaker 1: he was probably in like middle school somewhere or some shit,
8:02
Speaker 1: so he probably don't know. He may know the way
8:05
Speaker 1: he apologize real quick, but it's like he don't know,
8:07
Speaker 1: like Okay, he posted it. I didn't already Boom clicked
8:09
Speaker 1: on his TikTok. You and Charlotte, I know what school.

8:14
Speaker 1: come do something to you, make somebody do something to you,
8:17
Speaker 1: it's like bruh, So it's nothing to it. You get
8:20
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But you know that's like little
8:23
Speaker 1: troll shit, you know what I mean, Like I wouldn't
8:24
Speaker 1: even post the little nigga don't even know to take
8:27
Speaker 1: the part of the video out where he got scared
8:29
Speaker 1: and apologize. I'm like this little nigga green, You're just
8:33
Speaker 1: happy to out he gave him a moment. You feel me,
8:35
Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, like that that's a prime
8:38
Speaker 1: example of like you know, with growth and shit and
8:40
Speaker 1: just understanding like what's going on. Like I'm way more
8:43
Speaker 1: you know, calculated when it come to like high respond
8:45
Speaker 1: and shit like shit like that, I won't eat. You
8:47
Speaker 1: got to be close enough to me for me to
8:49
Speaker 1: even you know what I'm saying, Like I wouldn't get
8:51
Speaker 1: that shit. No, I wouldn't get that shit even if
8:53
Speaker 1: he wouldn't if he would have been you know, the
8:55
Speaker 1: way we can cross paths like I wouldn't I know
8:57
Speaker 1: a threat. When I see a threat, you get what
8:58
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I know I know how I'm talking
9:00
Speaker 1: of the Letter to the Wayans. I see there go
9:02
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, bring that down.
9:03
Speaker 3: Because you got a record called Letter to the Wayans.
9:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. And I had that record, like and
9:06
Speaker 1: that's a prime example, right when I say, you know,
9:09
Speaker 1: ain't rapping about their childishit And I did that record
9:11
Speaker 1: like two years ago. So you look at the bullshit
9:14
Speaker 1: out and put out in between the time that I
9:16
Speaker 1: made that record, Like that makes no sense. You know
9:18
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. When I drop it, well, like, oh
9:20
Speaker 1: my god, like this is it. And I'm sitting here
9:22
Speaker 1: but me in my circle, like the people who don't
9:24
Speaker 1: heard it, that's around it. We've been like, that's it,
9:26
Speaker 1: that's it. My older cousin, you know what I'm saying.
9:29
Speaker 1: They used to sell dope. He that's it, because that's it,
9:31
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like, so we we already
9:34
Speaker 1: knew like what it was. But me, like I more importantly,
9:37
Speaker 1: like I felt like, you know, the world had to
9:38
Speaker 1: get with me. They had to get the listeners, they
9:41
Speaker 1: had to get into space to where they was able
9:43
Speaker 1: to receive that type of music from me, you know
9:45
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, And that's up to meta to put
9:47
Speaker 1: them there. So it takes time for me to you know,
9:49
Speaker 1: take a step back, not put out certain type of shit, relaxed,
9:54
Speaker 1: understand the climate of the game or whatever. Lead by
9:56
Speaker 1: example with the way I move and shit period, Like
9:59
Speaker 1: you know, I ain't trying to from telling you got
10:01
Speaker 1: damn shake something to God, damn letter to my Wyn immediately,
10:07
Speaker 1: like you know, because I got motherfuckers so so got
10:10
Speaker 1: them on the hook with this, you know. So it
10:11
Speaker 1: was just it's all, it's all a learning experience with
10:14
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I'm just I'm moving and
10:16
Speaker 1: grooving through it. But this album here, I make sure
10:18
Speaker 1: I checked the autumn boxes, you know what I'm saying.
10:20
Speaker 1: Letter to Mayian, beautiful song. I wanted the whole project
10:23
Speaker 1: really to be some shit a mother can put on
10:25
Speaker 1: ten years later and really, like you know, learn something.
10:28
Speaker 1: Some ship you can put on, you know, a decade
10:31
Speaker 1: or two from now, and really you know, whoever that
10:33
Speaker 1: is in that time period, they can steal gain some
10:36
Speaker 1: understanding and some knowledge from the ship, like like them
10:38
Speaker 1: classics like the type of shit I ride to. You
10:40
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying on a daily basis, Like I
10:42

12:58
Speaker 1: than all this. I feel like all this shit is
12:59
Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't exactly how I was supposed to go.
13:02
Speaker 1: So until I was ready to he like, I wasn't
13:05
Speaker 1: you know, as certain myself, like the way I could
13:07
Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying, Like I was holding back.
13:09
Speaker 1: So you know, I feel like until I did realize
13:12
Speaker 1: that and understand, like, you know, my purpose is much
13:14
Speaker 1: bigger and much more important than what the fuck I
13:17
Speaker 1: thought it. Well, it ain't just to be you know,
13:19
Speaker 1: the hottest nigga in the world. Do this and do
13:21
Speaker 1: that like I got a real story, I got real wisdom,
13:24
Speaker 1: real experience, real life experience. I gotn't been through real shit,
13:28
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, more than a lot of
13:31
Speaker 1: these niggas, any of these other rap niggas, Like like,
13:34
Speaker 1: I really a lot of it. I didne went through
13:36
Speaker 1: it right here in front of the world. So it's like,
13:38
Speaker 1: if if I don't feel like it's my responsibility to
13:42
Speaker 1: you know, to get the people that's gonna come up
13:44
Speaker 1: behind me and the kids and whoever, if I don't
13:46
Speaker 1: feel like it's my responsibility to teach them how to
13:49
Speaker 1: navigate through that shit avoid certain shit that I done
13:52
Speaker 1: went through. You know what I'm saying, I make the
13:53
Speaker 1: mistakes I didn't made, then who the fuck else is
13:56
Speaker 1: better to do it? Especially when they didn't really see
13:58
Speaker 1: me go through it. You get what I'm saying. And
14:00
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, the artists that do understand
14:02
Speaker 1: that or the people that do understand that shit, you
14:04
Speaker 1: know what they art for them, like them the ones
14:06
Speaker 1: that God bless the most. You get what I'm saying.
14:08
Speaker 5: What about me? If that's kind of like an open
14:10
Speaker 5: letter to what about me?
14:11
Speaker 1: Is? Yes, Yes, that was one of my favorite ones.
14:13
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's just a it's a uh,
14:17
Speaker 1: it's a motherfucking don't. It's so much depth to it. Yeah,
14:21
Speaker 1: I like I like your, I like your your perspective
14:24
Speaker 1: on it like an open letter of the God. It's
14:25
Speaker 1: really and it ain't even a god. It's just more
14:27
Speaker 1: so just me just being just transparent, you know what
14:29
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Really, I try to make sure I was
14:32
Speaker 1: transparent throughout the entire project. But I made sure I
14:35
Speaker 1: put that song early in the track list, you get
14:37
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, so it wouldn't Making the track list
14:39
Speaker 1: was so mother fucking difficult, man, because it's so much
14:42
Speaker 1: shit to it. But I wanted to make sure, Okay,
14:44
Speaker 1: off the rip, I come with sticks and stones, then
14:46
Speaker 1: I gotta come. I gotta give them some energy. I
14:48
Speaker 1: gotta make sure they have a good time. And the
14:49
Speaker 1: production on pop that thing like made that easy to
14:53
Speaker 1: do because it's still like I think the genre is
14:55
Speaker 1: like what's that house music or something?
14:57
Speaker 2: What would you called it?
15:00
Speaker 5: Like, there were a lot of songs that gave me
15:03
Speaker 5: Uncle Luke a little bit, you know what I'm saying.
15:06
Speaker 6: See how his house music and that's what it gives.
15:08
Speaker 1: Off for sure. But I wanted to go straight into
15:11
Speaker 1: something like why I still had that mellow but still
15:13
Speaker 1: some ship to make your move coming out popular thing.
15:15
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, let me let me, god damn
15:17
Speaker 1: speak to them though, let me at the beginning, like
15:20
Speaker 1: like you know, the first up from the first three songs,
15:22
Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure, like you understand, like who
15:25
Speaker 1: I am. You know what I'm saying, strip me. I
15:26
Speaker 1: ain't talking about No, I ain't talking about nothing material.
15:29
Speaker 1: I ain't talk about none of that shit. You know
15:31
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And that's what I wanted to do
15:32
Speaker 1: with what about me? Just pretty much, you know, let
15:35
Speaker 1: motherfuckers in on like how I'm really feeling. You know
15:38
Speaker 1: what I'm saying on the inside, you know what I mean.
15:40
Speaker 1: And so songs like that, I feel like it's just
15:43
Speaker 1: super important. That's that's just a display of transparency.
15:45
Speaker 4: Do you do you feel like the culture allows black
15:47
Speaker 4: men room for redemption or they just demand apologies?
15:50
Speaker 1: Shit, man, just like just like everything else back in
15:53
Speaker 1: the day, we got to go get that ship, you
15:54
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, you know, the culture gonna
15:57
Speaker 1: allow with you what you get up out of it.
15:59
Speaker 1: At the end of the today, you know, shit, they
16:01
Speaker 1: ain't allow us to do none of this shit. We
16:03
Speaker 1: had to go do this shit everybody in here. You
16:05
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, It ain't just it will never
16:07
Speaker 1: just no hungh, you know, and it's and everybody in
16:09
Speaker 1: here to have been battle tested within whatever laying and
16:12
Speaker 1: then you get what I'm saying, like that's what's gonna
16:14
Speaker 1: come with it. So you know, I'm I'm really, I'm
16:17
Speaker 1: really not only like in the season of gratitude, but like, well,
16:20
Speaker 1: I guess it took me to be in the season
16:21
Speaker 1: of accountability prior to that. That's kind of like more
16:23
Speaker 1: so where I was last time I came to see y'all.
16:25
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I feel like that come first,
16:27
Speaker 1: you know, just identifying, you know what mistakes you made
16:31
Speaker 1: and how you could have did it better, and then
16:33
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta you gotta make the adjustments move accordingly,
16:36
Speaker 1: and when you get on the other side of it, okay,
16:38
Speaker 1: then you you know, you get to you get to
16:41
Speaker 1: be like where I'm at with it right now, in
16:42
Speaker 1: its space. So you know, I don't I don't really
16:46
Speaker 1: feeling titled for for nobody to take it easy on me.
16:49
Speaker 1: The cold should have business, none of that shit, you know,
16:51
Speaker 1: and and when you do, you know, just to put
16:53
Speaker 1: motherfuckers up on game. Like when you do, you know,
16:56
Speaker 1: fall into like that sense of entitlement or feeling like
16:58
Speaker 1: a motherfucker, Oh you're something doing nothing but distracting yourself
17:01
Speaker 1: from what it is just supposed to.
17:02
Speaker 6: Do out coming off of your four year hiatus, would
17:05
Speaker 6: you say making this album was more therapeutic.
17:08
Speaker 1: A thousand percent? A thousand percent, especially when I you know,
17:12
Speaker 1: when I do it the way I did it like
17:14
Speaker 1: I can, I could say making music is therapeutic period.
17:16
Speaker 1: You know, certain music make you feel good, but once
17:18
Speaker 1: the song go off, okay, it's back to reality. It shit,
17:20
Speaker 1: don't hit it. You know. They can talk to anybody
17:23
Speaker 1: that's going through whatever. It don't matter what it's. You know,
17:25
Speaker 1: everybody feeling different at every single moment of the day.
17:28
Speaker 1: It's a song on this on this damn track list
17:31
Speaker 1: for everybody in this world. You get, know what I'm saying.
17:33
Speaker 1: Motherfuckers that don't got nothing, motherfuckers that got everything. Motherfuckers
17:37
Speaker 1: did you know they got everything and they and they
17:40
Speaker 1: happy and they feel good. Motherfuckers got their thing and
17:42
Speaker 1: ain't at peace with themselves. It's something on it for everybody,
17:44
Speaker 1: So it wasn't I wanted to make sure it wasn't
17:47
Speaker 1: only therapeutic for me, but therapeutic for the listeners. You
17:49
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like some shit that really really
17:52
Speaker 1: you know, tapping to them emotions and you feel something
17:55
Speaker 1: to make you feel some type of way, Like that's
17:57
Speaker 1: what I'm on.
17:58
Speaker 5: The other shit you mentioned therapy, I think it was
18:01
Speaker 5: what about me? Are you actively doing therapy?
18:03
Speaker 1: As? So? I did it. I'm I'm finishing up my documentary.
18:07
Speaker 1: It should end up coming out this year. That's gonna
18:09
Speaker 1: be like MUSSYTV too, be like a docuseries. It's gonna
18:12
Speaker 1: be multiple like parts of it and shit. But I
18:16
Speaker 1: went the way that I approached it, Like I sat
18:18
Speaker 1: down and did and did therapy. I started my this
18:22
Speaker 1: is I hadn't did therapy at all last time I
18:24
Speaker 1: saw you. I had never in my life, you know
18:26
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I filmed it. I filmed it
18:30
Speaker 1: so I got I filmed it for a week straight.
18:33
Speaker 1: I did therapy. I did five therapy sessions. I believe
18:35
Speaker 1: all of them, Like two to three hours long, you
18:37
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But I didn't meet the therapists
18:39
Speaker 1: or nothing, like I I found the good when I
18:41
Speaker 1: got recommendations, I found the good one or whatever. I
18:44
Speaker 1: had the camera crew go in set the lighting up.
18:46
Speaker 1: I had my peoples talk to him after that. I
18:48
Speaker 1: didn't even know who the nigga was when I walked
18:51
Speaker 1: in the room to come do it, because I wanted
18:53
Speaker 1: to be organic, like I'm not doing this too. I
18:55
Speaker 1: had already handled all the you know, like sign off
18:57
Speaker 1: on me being able to use your voice and documentary
18:59
Speaker 1: all that type shit, because I I wanted to that
19:02
Speaker 1: part out the way, you know what I'm saying, the
19:03
Speaker 1: business part, league apart whatever you call it, you know,
19:05
Speaker 1: because they really not even allowed to do that shit,
19:07
Speaker 1: you see what I'm saying, Like by law, they not
19:09
Speaker 1: allowed to do that shit unless you know what I'm saying,
19:11
Speaker 1: like giving permission to do it over there. So he
19:12
Speaker 1: was big on that, like nah, you gotta hell nah,
19:15
Speaker 1: like you gotta say that you're okay with this shit
19:16
Speaker 1: happening because it's you know, it's against like you know,
19:19
Speaker 1: the rules and shit to come with his profession. But
19:21
Speaker 1: when I walked in. I didn't even know who he was,
19:23
Speaker 1: so I'm getting ready to go talk to camera Nigga
19:25
Speaker 1: like I had to tell him, but like he told
19:28
Speaker 1: me which one was a therapist and shit. Then I
19:29
Speaker 1: go over, I greet him. We sat down, got straight
19:31
Speaker 1: to it. Charla Mane, I know you real big in
19:34
Speaker 1: the mental health space. By the third day, and he
19:37
Speaker 1: ain't talk about no music shit till like the last day.
19:40
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. By the third day, minute
19:42
Speaker 1: Nigga had me on camera crime, man, I'm on that
19:44
Speaker 1: bitch cryme for like twenty minutes straight. Yeah, Nigga ain't
19:47
Speaker 1: never you know, cause I'm even when it come to
19:50
Speaker 1: like you know.
19:51
Speaker 2: What was the breakthrough?
19:53
Speaker 1: Oh man, it really it piled up on me. I
19:57
Speaker 1: ain't gonna lie like because he like he know what
20:00
Speaker 1: he's doing. I recommend it to anybody. You know what
20:03
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, I can't even like he bro, he
20:07
Speaker 1: rocked me to sleep and then he figured me out. Bro,
20:08
Speaker 1: I can't lie like I don't cause you know me,
20:11
Speaker 1: like from interrogations and all this shit, I'd have been
20:13
Speaker 1: questioned by homicide detectives everything, like I didn't you know,
20:18
Speaker 1: like like and didn't even lawyer you up. You know
20:21
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. A certain situations where I answer one
20:24
Speaker 1: thing wrong, like I wouldn't have never been able to
20:25
Speaker 1: sit right here ever, you know what I'm saying. So
20:29
Speaker 1: I when it come to like okay, somebody being intentional
20:32
Speaker 1: with with talking to me and like trying to get
20:34
Speaker 1: something out of me, like I kind of I feel
20:37
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm better or I'm more equipped to navigate
20:40
Speaker 1: through this type of shit, you know what I'm saying
20:42
Speaker 1: than most people. You know what I'm saying, Like I
20:44
Speaker 1: ain't just gonna sit there. I kind of know, Okay,
20:46
Speaker 1: this is why this nigga asking me this or whatever,
20:48
Speaker 1: unless I got you know, respect for more. Like when
20:51
Speaker 1: I sit down with y'all, I don't sit down like that,
20:52
Speaker 1: Like I ain't thinking, okay with this, what's her anger?
20:55
Speaker 1: What's his angle? What's his anger? When you're talking to me,
20:57
Speaker 1: I just talk, you know, cause I got respect for y'all.
20:59
Speaker 1: Feel like y'all got respect for me in my mind,
21:00
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's different, but with
21:03
Speaker 1: certain motherfuckers like everybody else though, it's like I'm kind
21:06
Speaker 1: of you know, I'm gonna control the conversation, like you
21:08
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying more than anything, And nah, the
21:11
Speaker 1: shit he talking about. He he's asking me shit, I've
21:13
Speaker 1: never been asked before. You get what I'm saying. So
21:15
Speaker 1: when that when the nigga had me that third day,
21:18
Speaker 1: when the nigga and then I'm crying and still talking,
21:21
Speaker 1: I'm like, what the fuck going on? I'm like, what
21:23
Speaker 1: type of shit is this? And he's still why I'm crying,
21:25
Speaker 1: just still sitting there. It's okay, insteady asking me shit,
21:27
Speaker 1: I'm like, what the fuck? It's nigga's in there, you know,
21:30
Speaker 1: like my partner is working on a documentary with me,
21:32
Speaker 1: like he a part of my in house production team
21:34
Speaker 1: or whatever. When I got done and got up, he
21:37
Speaker 1: and walked back around like the curtains that we had
21:40
Speaker 1: and there we had all the production shit set up
21:41
Speaker 1: at and shit, the monitors all that, and the nigga
21:44
Speaker 1: is recording the audio, listening to the audio all that.
21:46
Speaker 1: Them niggas couldn't even look at me like they because
21:48
Speaker 1: they hearing my story like they'd heard, you know, days
21:51
Speaker 1: and day like what they're hearing. Shit, they never even
21:53
Speaker 1: knew about me. And these niggas. They't know me for
21:56
Speaker 1: ten years, fifteen years. By now I come around the
21:58
Speaker 1: corner and there he's like, bro, just go ahead and
21:59
Speaker 1: go home. I'm a Rappord thing. Just I'm like, nigga,
22:02
Speaker 1: was you cry? Not for real? Like so that's that's
22:05
Speaker 1: gonna be. And adding that component to it, right and
22:09
Speaker 1: like the making like it really didn't turn into a
22:12
Speaker 1: mental health piece, you get what I'm saying. But it
22:14
Speaker 1: also got all that other shit violence, you know what
22:17
Speaker 1: I'm saying, controversy, all the ship that make motherfuckers that
22:20
Speaker 1: make ship must sy TV. You get what I'm saying.
22:22
Speaker 1: The messy ship this and that got the money, It
22:24
Speaker 1: got the glitter, the gold they got, the struggle got
22:27
Speaker 1: the success. But it's it's all the skeleton of it,
22:30
Speaker 1: the meat and potatoes of it is is mental health.
22:33
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's a healing piece to it.
22:35
Speaker 1: Absolutely the title of it. It should have told the therapist.
22:38
Speaker 2: I am glad that.
22:39
Speaker 4: I'm glad you had like some time just to be
22:42
Speaker 4: still the last four years because I think you always

Speaker 4: had a lot of you know, trauma that you never
22:46
Speaker 4: got the process the stuff before you even got in
22:49
Speaker 4: the game, right, And I think people always forget that
22:52
Speaker 4: that moment when you you got the number one record
22:55
Speaker 4: in the country, you get to call it your possible
22:57
Speaker 4: long exactly.

Speaker 1: ready to the bomb again. But yeah, what about us?
29:38
Speaker 1: You care about having hits to having piece of mind?
29:41
Speaker 1: Peace of mind now, and then it hits gonna come.
29:43
Speaker 1: If I got peace of mind, it hits coming, you
29:45
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Just like a record like pop
29:47
Speaker 1: that thing like that's like the last one I recorded
29:49
Speaker 1: on the album. I really already had the album done
29:51
Speaker 1: and shit, but it needed one of them, like they
29:53
Speaker 1: needed that, you know what I'm saying. Like I was
29:55
Speaker 1: looking for one of them, but I wasn't trying to
29:57
Speaker 1: force it, you know. And like even on that record,
29:59
Speaker 1: like ain't like I could have approached it several different ways,
30:02
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And I found myself just
30:04
Speaker 1: on some shit, like just letting that shit flow on.
30:07
Speaker 1: She have the world in the hands. I'm just vibing,
30:09
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I ain't even add I
30:11
Speaker 1: ain't doing nothing, nothing too crazy, nothing too major. And
30:14
Speaker 1: that's how that's how the hits come. You get what
30:16
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Just organic when you just you know, when
30:18
Speaker 1: you allow it to happen. And shit, you know what
30:20
Speaker 1: I'm saying.
30:20
Speaker 2: When when you have an outro like Kobe and Old nine,
30:22
Speaker 2: Yes that's true.
30:24
Speaker 1: Who who?
30:24
Speaker 4: Because you know that was Kobe's year when he had
30:26
Speaker 4: to prove all the doubts He won his first tip
30:29
Speaker 4: without shagm sinals MVP.
30:31
Speaker 2: Is that the mindset you went.
30:33
Speaker 1: One hundred percent and and you know that was originally
30:36
Speaker 1: the intro you know what I'm saying. But I was
30:38
Speaker 1: like I would play that and then play other songs
30:40
Speaker 1: at it. That was the intro until I made Sticks
30:41
Speaker 1: and Stones. In the second I made it, I'm like, nah,
30:43
Speaker 1: it's the intro because I play Kobe in two thousand
30:46
Speaker 1: and nine. That shit deep, you know what I'm saying,
30:48
Speaker 1: That shit go off and everybody whoa, Like it's it's heavy,
30:51
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That one heavy even like
30:53
Speaker 1: with the with the singing, this this going on in
30:55
Speaker 1: the background, like that shit there, you know, something like
30:58
Speaker 1: this is actually perfect for the outro. But that's definitely
31:00
Speaker 1: like I feel like, you know, that's like the chef's
31:02
Speaker 1: kiss on the project. You get what I'm saying, and
31:04
Speaker 1: it definitely, you know, it leaves your ass at the
31:08
Speaker 1: very end of that shit like whoa, you know what
31:10
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So that's definitely the mindset with it, like
31:13
Speaker 1: just knowing you know, I'm I'm at a stage the way, yeah,
31:17
Speaker 1: like I can't miss I can't miss this shot. You
31:20
Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. Where I'm I'm trying to win
31:24
Speaker 1: rings and not in the sense of trophies, like I'm
31:27
Speaker 1: talking about this in life period, like I'm here to win.
31:29
Speaker 1: I'm here to do what I'm called to do. You
31:31
Speaker 1: get what I'm saying, Like I'm here to really you know,
31:34
Speaker 1: walking my purpose, Like I really understand, you know what
31:37
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, Wow, I'm here, and it's super important
31:39
Speaker 1: that that I you know, put that shit on display
31:43
Speaker 1: and I have dis sermon alone the way and I
31:45
Speaker 1: made the right decisions and everything calculated, and that I
31:48
Speaker 1: apply the type of pressure that you know, being given
31:51
Speaker 1: this type of gifts like that that shit required, you know.
31:54
Speaker 1: So that's definitely the mindset Kobe in two thousand and
31:57
Speaker 1: all these niggas playing, I'm in the gym. I'm excited
32:00
Speaker 1: just announce the tour one hundred percent be more grateful tour?
