- 1:39Speaker 3: Yeah, games knowledge break down.
- 1:41Speaker 1: The cover of the album because it's like you in
- 1:43Speaker 1: front of a house escalade.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Yeah, so I feel like, uh it kind of represents
- 1:47Speaker 3: like where I'm from. I'm from a small town called Gridley.
- 1:50Speaker 1: Where's that at?
- 1:52Speaker 3: North of sacrament No, okay, in between like Chico and
- 1:55Speaker 3: Yuba City, Okay, Okay, small ats town like population is
- 1:59Speaker 3: probably like fight the definitely not the Bay though, definitely
- 2:02Speaker 3: not the Bay. Everyone always asks me where are you from?
- 2:04Speaker 3: Where are you from?
- 2:06Speaker 2: Some people like who aren't from California will always like
- 2:09Speaker 2: try to like push this like Sack and the Bay together, yeah,
- 2:13Speaker 2: or Stock together.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Yeah, like, oh, you're from the Bay from Sack. You're
- 2:17Speaker 3: from the Bay then, right, I'm from small ast town, bron.

- 2:28Speaker 3: So you grow up in a small town, yeah, small
- 2:30Speaker 3: lest town.
- 2:32Speaker 2: And so kind of break down just kind of the
- 2:34Speaker 2: storytelling behind the choice of the imagery on the album.

- 2:42Speaker 3: kind of dark gloomy photo doctor chout out photo doctor.

- 2:58Speaker 3: the front, like you know kind of picturing like the uh,
- 3:02Speaker 3: just like different generations, you know what I mean, from
- 3:04Speaker 3: like a kid to like a og.
- 3:06Speaker 2: For you, like, uh, obviously the game is Knowledge is
- 3:09Speaker 2: Dope title. I'm assuming you've soaked up a lot of
- 3:12Speaker 2: games because you've been running with burn for.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Two or three years now twenty twenty one.
- 3:17Speaker 2: A minute, you and your brother, me and my brother
- 3:20Speaker 2: kind of explain like how you get brought into the
- 3:23Speaker 2: camp at Cookies with Berner and you know what was
- 3:27Speaker 2: the thing that kind of musically like had him interested in,
- 3:31Speaker 2: like just break down the whole genesis of that.
- 3:33Speaker 3: Full pretty much. It was COVID time I was going
- 3:36Speaker 3: to Sack City, I dropped out. I was just fucking
- 3:40Speaker 3: around with the camera, shiit. But my brothers one really
- 3:42Speaker 3: took that shit serious and he was already kind of
- 3:44Speaker 3: locked in with Berner kind of doing like video edits,
- 3:46Speaker 3: music videos, all kinds of shit, and I just kind
- 3:48Speaker 3: of like, you know, soaked up game from my brother
- 3:51Speaker 3: and I catched my whole flights. But Berner was dropping
- 3:54Speaker 3: fucking grand openings like left and right going.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Yeah around that time.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, everywhere, and I just pull up with my
- 4:01Speaker 3: drone and ship and Burned like who's this little homies?
- 4:04Speaker 3: Like he looks pretty hungry and ship, so I'll be
- 4:06Speaker 3: pulling up, you know, shooting content with them and then well, actually,
- 4:10Speaker 3: when I first met him, wasn't humble. You see the
- 4:12Speaker 3: marijuana mania, Yeah, of course, yeah, the humble version. That's
- 4:15Speaker 3: when I first met him. I just pulled up to
- 4:17Speaker 3: do a drunk drone work. But I thought that was
- 4:20Speaker 3: gonna be the last time I worked with him, because
- 4:21Speaker 3: I fucking crashed the drunk. You crashed, crashed the drum. Yeah,
- 4:24Speaker 3: I'm like, this is it. Bro, was like, he a't
- 4:26Speaker 3: gonna hire me again. It was my drunk shout out
- 4:29Speaker 3: the hummy freed He invited us to go shoot that
- 4:31Speaker 3: documentary and I was like, fuck, bro, he ain't gonna
- 4:34Speaker 3: want to work with me again. And I feel bought
- 4:36Speaker 3: another drunk for me that same day, like you know,
- 4:39Speaker 3: it's all good. I'm like, that's when I found out
- 4:40Speaker 3: he's a boss. Ship burn Burn's a real one.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Damn Yeah. I'd have been like, hey man, you crashed
- 4:46Speaker 1: your ship, you better replace your ship.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Sold this for exactly exactly. I feel like over Tome
- 4:53Speaker 3: probably lost like five other more drums, and he just
- 4:55Speaker 3: keeps it, remburses me and ship.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Do you think you have a drone driving problem.
- 5:00Speaker 3: I just feel like I feel like Burn is just
- 5:03Speaker 3: like always on the movie and I'm just like we're
- 5:05Speaker 3: so we're like in like so many different situations.
- 5:08Speaker 1: You know.
- 5:08Speaker 2: The drone is like it's interesting too because it's like
- 5:12Speaker 2: depending on where you're at, you can't fly.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Yeah, so you gotta be super careful. Yeah.
- 5:15Speaker 3: I lost one in New York City, fucking at the
- 5:18Speaker 3: grand opening there, lost one at the fucking Red Rocks Amphitheater.
- 5:21Speaker 3: That ship was the Endeavor. It was like snowing, I think,
- 5:24Speaker 3: and that.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Shit just freeze.
- 5:25Speaker 3: The didn't come back. Yeah, the didn't come back, just
- 5:28Speaker 3: lost signal. I went like over a mountain that Shiit
- 5:30Speaker 3: just lost singer crazy but yeah, man. And then once
- 5:33Speaker 3: he found out about the drone ship, I dropped my
- 5:36Speaker 3: first song with Stingy called Girls Gone Wild. That shit
- 5:39Speaker 3: went crazy and Burn was like, who fuck is this?
- 5:41Speaker 3: Like shooting videos and rapping and ship like what the
- 5:44Speaker 3: fuck doing it all type ship? Yeah? After that, he's
- 5:49Speaker 3: kind of just brought me into his wing and just

- 6:40Speaker 3: of showing love, but like didn't really get to like
- 6:43Speaker 3: cancel like bees.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Or Well, you guys got to take that number one

- 7:00Speaker 3: Yeah, we got that plaque at home, send pretty and shit.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Stangy still wants his house from burning. Apparently, he's like,
- 7:06Speaker 3: I'll buy you a house if he hit number one.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Oh that's right, it was a bet.
- 7:10Speaker 3: It was a bet.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Oh. And he hasn't come with the house yet not.
- 7:15Speaker 3: Yeah, they're still trying to figure that out. I let
- 7:16Speaker 3: them do their thing on that.
- 7:17Speaker 1: But even if he gets to my house in like a.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Couple of years Detroit, Oh, Detroit, Yeah, you know here, technically.

- 7:34Speaker 3: Exactly, Stancy you hearing that shit?
- 7:36Speaker 1: Yeah, come on stay.
- 7:38Speaker 2: So then you ended up doing a deal where he
- 7:40Speaker 2: was because I feel like Burn's like, I feel like
- 7:44Speaker 2: he should be more active signing artist. And I know
- 7:46Speaker 2: he's tried to sign to other people, you know, but like,
- 7:49Speaker 2: what's it like kind of being under because you know,
- 7:51Speaker 2: Burn's a boss man and and he moves very particular.
- 7:56Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like, what are some of
- 7:58Speaker 2: the stuff that you've learned just being around him for
- 8:00Speaker 2: the last five years?
- 8:02Speaker 3: Bro? Just you know, just be loyal, be loyal for sure.
- 8:09Speaker 3: Just be a good guy, bro, stick around. You'll make
- 8:12Speaker 3: you'll make it far with him and he'll put you
- 8:14Speaker 3: on a lot of game and give you a lot
- 8:16Speaker 3: of opportunities to be showed. Like you know, you work hard.
- 8:19Speaker 3: And that's what I think he's seen that ship in
- 8:20Speaker 3: me Like this kid like he's working a lot, he's
- 8:24Speaker 3: doing a lot.

- 11:00Speaker 3: gz Trophies album and after that he was just fucking
- 11:05Speaker 3: with me. Burn's like, Yo, I know you about to
- 11:07Speaker 3: be on the road. You down to do a song
- 11:08Speaker 3: with the homie Childer and I'll let you borrow the
- 11:10Speaker 3: tour bus. And I was like, oh ship Burn. That's
- 11:13Speaker 3: when I found out, like damn, he fucks with me, Bro,

- 11:42Speaker 2: R and of that the This This Game Is Knowledge album.
- 11:46Speaker 3: I feel like he worked on like like half of
- 11:47Speaker 3: it because the first half I was on the Show
- 11:50Speaker 3: Online tour and then we got back it was like December,
- 11:53Speaker 3: and then we're like, Bro, you gotta finish your album
- 11:55Speaker 3: before you go on my tour because you know, it'd
- 11:59Speaker 3: be smart to drop an album boom while you're on
- 12:01Speaker 3: the road.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Of course you have something to push promote.
- 12:04Speaker 3: That was like the best decision I ever did, bro,
- 12:05Speaker 3: because when I dropped the album on tour, bro ship
- 12:09Speaker 3: we get Hello Love. I sold out all my merch,
