I know who the Rolling Stones, but I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
You know, guitarist is like known for being like just
like a legendary drug user, but he's still alive and
he's like he's like eighty. So people always say, like
Keith Richards like figured out drug use because he's still
doing He's still on stage shredding, and I mean, by
all accounts, you know he's still partying a little crazy.

formerly five dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I don't think none of it is new that you
you had a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
By the way, Little Caesar is one of the most
clutch restaurants of all time for sure. How many Little
Caesars Hot and Ready do you think you've taken down
in your life? I would venture I'm about two hundred
just overall.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say maybe a little more.
Maybe a little more than that. I used to stay
in Austin. That was the closest thing to me walking
this thing.

It's so quick and it's five cheat yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:42):

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Talk about the new album, man, I know, uh, you know,
Meat Decision has been going crazy. You've been rolling out
the label very very well. I've been seeing those like
I've been seeing like everybody ship popping up on like
wrap Caviar and all the like, random playlists and ship
so like, congrats on the success of the compilation project,
because I know that's not the easiest thing that No.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
No, it wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
But uh, I mean, you know those guys, they work hard, right,
you know what I'm saying. So they took advantage of
the opportunity that I was giving and it's worked out
for him road going crazy Crazy everybody just kind of
like getting it in order before we going to it,
because you know they're going on to it. We mean,
I don't have no big person coming out before me.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
You just got your squad.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's just me and them, and so yeah, we are
just getting prepared for that. They're trying to get music
out before we going to it. That way, you know,
they got some people rocking with they still on the tour.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
I feel like some point in time during Hood's performance,
he has to freeze out with the crowd.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
The crowd like maybe or something you could pick like
four or five people out the crowd and let them out.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Pick crazy man. Who's on your album? Nobody Nobody, no features.
You're not a big feature guy, by the way, this
is not your thing.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I'm more of a me myself and outside.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But this is more of like a personal album though,
Like this is like a like you know me, but
now I'm introducing like the rat version of me, like
everything that he goes through. And at first it was
just shooting a bang bang making it sound good on
nice beats. Now we're actually talking about it's actual like
(06:31):
purpose behind well, I guess youse. I got one feature
on it and it's Walla.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
It's like a yeah exactly, so doing his wallow thing exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
What is the most personal record on this project?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Man, I'm I'm gonna have to say lost, lost for love, Yeah,
lost for love.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I was It's just I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I was just going through some some ship at a
time and my voice was gone. I wasn't able to
record nothing. And the shit happened. I had been trapped
and we was in La. It was out here. It
was a recording trip, so I had lots of my voice.
Wasn't supposed to be recording. Some shit had happened at
the crib. I was just going through it. I had
been in my room all day. I waited till like
two three o'clock in the morning to go downstairs. My
(07:18):
producer was sleeping the chair. I woke them up, like Hey,
come on, let's record, and that's what was recorded, and
it just I don't know, it just hit different that
the first time. I really just I guess wrapped some
some real personal stuff that was going on, you know, right.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yeah, so I feel like vulnerability, man, I feel like
it more vulnerable you could be on records some more
like fans are like connecting my lady.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And that's what I'm trying to cause
at first, I ain't really like I wanted to connect.
I care about connecting with my pans, but it's like,
do I really want to try to know?
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Like you know what I mean, Like they know big acts,
but they know you for real.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
But then I had to think about it.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
The same stuff you going through people might be going through,
but in a different manner because as it get better,
it get worse, right, that's for everybody.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
So when's the last time you were like kind of
like in a rut where you had to kind of
put yourself out mentally? Does that happened to you ever?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Every other day? Every other day? Yeah, real, the day it's.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Hey, it's it's it's you know, it's this rap this
this is a tough, tough game.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You know. I feel like too. It's like it's like
a lot of work bro.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Like you also, you guys have been so NonStop for
the last like two years. It feels like yeah, and
I'm sure longer, but I can only imagine like it's
just been like all right, what's tomorrow. We gotta do this,
we gotta do this.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
That's little conversations with me and my managers just call
of called me and be like, hey, you got to
do this, this, this and this. We leaving this day, yeah,
Brandon and called me, hey, now that you're here, we
got to go do this, this, this, this, this, you
leave this day.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Have you taken a vacation where you didn't work yet?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I just tried to but it didn't work out. Wh
would you go? I went to the Virgin Islands but
you were still working. No, Like, it's just I just
went in the right mind space. Yeah, how was it? Like?
What was it cool though? Or it was all right?
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Food was whatever. I feel like it just for when
it wasn't really nothing over there.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
I mean, you go to those places you really just
sit on the beach and eat.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
I know, but it's like when you see people going
on vacation they'd be like it's a bar. Everybody turned
on the beads, right, And that's what I thought it
was going.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Sounds like Adam Sandler movie. Yeah, yeah, wasn't that. Yeah, Nah,
you got if you're gonna go, like, you gotta go
to like all those like little beach towns are cool
if you literally just want to do nothing, Like you
got to make sure the resort's on points. So they
got like a I didn't even resort, like it was
just the airbnb. Yeah, no, you got to go to
a resort so they just take care of everything. And
(09:51):
then you get the all all inclusive for the you know,
it's it's it's it's like kind of like Little Caesars.
You go to all inclusive resort. All the food is free.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Now it's not all good, but it's good enough. Liquor free,
and the liquors free.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
You'll be on the fucking beach under a tent and
then you just like the lady will just bring you
unlimited food and drinks all day and you have to pay.
You just tipper. I mean you also don't have to tipper.
I mean, obviously I think you should tip everybody. Just
give her a little tip. You know what I mean.
You gotta go to the d R too. DR is crazy.
I heard they got this ship called Mama Wana, which
is like their version of Viagara, but it's an alcoholic beverage.
(10:32):
You drink it and it gets you like ready, you know,
they're called Dominican Power.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Was real.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Oh yeah, I was fucking my wife off that Mama Wana.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
For sure.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
It's like a jar and it's like wine soaked in wood,
but it's a It's at.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
The DR anywhere in the DR you go. They got
Mama Wana.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Ma Wan, you gotta try it man for you man,
talk to me, like things have been changing. I feel
like with all the plaques now and just some of
the accolades you've been hitting in, just some of the
recognition you've been getting in the industry finally, because I
feel like you were kind of like I would say,
somewhat slept on and like not you know, I feel
(11:15):
like everyone's starting to get hip now. Do you feel
the difference happening.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I feel like in like THEOD industry, I don't think
I was slept on.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I just don't do all the extra shit for sure.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
You don't do goofy shit.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
And I feel like that's what didn't put me just
front of the center. But that's not what I care about.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
So but I feel like now like like everyone's really
coming around and being like, oh yeah, Like I'll talk
to people and they're like, have you heard a big
ext the book?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I'm like, no idea that is, yeah, put me on.
What do you think about it?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
But are you feeling the difference now within the industry,
like the amount of respect you're getting, an amount of
love you're getting.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
I mean yeah, but it's like I am I've always
see like they'll tell you I'm way bigger than what
I feel like I am like I and I think
that's just because they it's just me, Like I don't
never I've never been the type of person to put
myself over somebody make myself feel like I'm bigger or
better or whatever. So it's like I don't. I still
(12:10):
wake up every day for them, like I'm a regular person.
I just got a little more money than the average person.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
For people who don't know, like how many certifications you
have now at this point as an independent artist.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Uh, four, four or five, that's not that's not including
the features, because I got one.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think I got to go on with and with
h O T y O T and uh Chibouzi.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yeah the records gold yeah ship So you got like
seven for real, like I said, five seven rates, pistol
packing is golden plant.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
That's hard that it's fire And I think my, I think,
my what the EP for the Go Go Brandon the
EP and the go Go the biggest the biggest EP
from the Go Go? I think a mar wind go.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Oh yeah, you're congrats, bro appreciation man, what is something
like like for you? Like, because I think what's dope
about your journey is that you've done it. I guess
I would say the the harder way by being independent. Yeah,
rocking with United Masters who does great on the district
side for sure.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Would there ever be a point in time where you
would consider like doing like maybe like a major label
deal or something, or even if like let's say, like
they come at you with a deal for six hundred
you know what I'm saying, Like, would you ever consider
the major route?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I mean it's if if it would just come down
to just meet No, I don't think so. I think
I'll always be independent just off the strength of I
made more money than everybody major or everybody.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Well lioten Man. Also, these major labels are getting stripped
down to the fucking bonus. Yea, everyone's getting fired. Yeah,
they're fucked for real.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
So, but no, I feel like I make more money
than a major label artist, so wow, we.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Get to keep all your money. And then you know,
you know what it is a lot of these major
label artists, they just chase.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
In advance and then they're you know, if we're being
completely honest, yeah, I chase the advance, but I didn't
want to lock myself into it, right like with this,
with this situation, it was.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Like a like a they don't own me. I'm taking
this advance where we still we still partners at the
end of the day. It's not like you own me.
So if I don't come up with this, you know
what I'm saying other sh exactly. And so I think
that's why I did that. And I ain't know what
I was doing. I wouldn't finna go to no major
and I don't know, I don't know nothing about the business.
(14:53):
So that was another reason why I came when you
had to message, is because I knew that they would
be I'll be able to learn the process.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
It's like a jake, like going to a JUCO, right,
you know what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly, I'm not going
to go to this d one and get red shirted
when I can go to this JUCO and bot out
and then still have the chance to go to a
major or fucking go straight to the league from the
you know what I'm saying from the juco. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
A clip of our interview from a while ago just
popped up on my algorithm about you talking about your
football career. People don't know, like how close were you,
like really to being able to like pursue football.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
So you got highlights online? Yeah, I was at my
I was at my JUCO.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
All I had to do was finish out a year
and I could have transferred to the University of Minnesota.
The Yeah, I didn't even make it through the first
I didn't make it through.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
The first semester because you were just like, fuck this ship.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Nah, it was it was a mixture of like homes like, yeah,
I was on some funck this ship, but it really
was weed. I started smoking weed. But that wasn't even
the problem. I everybody. I was only person who came
up on weed. It was like a Christian Juko. So
you see what I'm saying, like waiting none of that
type of stuff. So yeah, exactly exactly what they found
(16:11):
out I had to weed. They was like, oh my god,
we've never known for this to even be on campus.
So if you have it, we want some. And so
it just went from there. People start getting caught. People
start telling.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
When you're you, you must get so much free weed.
Do you ever like turn it down or do you
ever like like be like this ship, Ain't it like
even if it cause free? I would say free weed
is like free food, Like I take it. I don't
know if I eat it, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Yeah yeah, nah, I only I paid for weed in
like two years, like unless I just absolutely chose to
or like I was impatient. I can wait and get
a pound for free, but it'll takes like an hour
or two.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Or do I want to smoke you have to post it?
Uh no pound for free.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I literally got like a weed like deal with somebody
they already paid me to do. Oh yeah, and I
still can pull up when everyone just give you eat?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Well, I mean I think I've seen you do the
the old tap in with the telegram promos.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That's I want money.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Listen, listen, we gotta talk about this because there's there's
this whole underbelly of rappers doing telegram promo videos. They
must pay well.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
Yeah yeah yeah, like yo, make sure you hit the
telegram man probably you know packs are touchdown.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm just like, yo, whoever, like who like shots to
those guys because they are very like yeah, they're out
there with it, so that's like a part of the deal.
Like y'all plug the televide.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I think that's why they shut down on their telegram
ship now, like now they closing. It's bad for everybody,
the only fans people every day, anybody that's doing something.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Well, someone told me telegrams also like the new only
fans because like girls will have like a telegram channel.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Yeah that's what I'm saying. It just exposed all of it.
I think us doing those promos expose all of it
because it's not just me doing it. I don't seen everybody. Yeah,
I don't seen rappers do it everybody, So I thought
it was just me because I've been doing it the
like since when I was nobody I was doing them,
and so I thought it was just oh they still
(18:08):
they still sucking with me, But no, they getting everybody.
So I think they just kind of broke the berrier
for the people to start looking at it.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
And yeah, no, it's definitely an interesting game telegram. I
think that they arrested the president or the guy who
started it. They rested him in France.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
It's crazy because he knew. I guess you could say
he had to know this.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
But they're doing all kinds of crazy shit on telegram.
Like when I have my telegram and I can see
someone sign up for it.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Like yeah, yeah, I can tell they too because I
got a telegram.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
So getting alerts on telegram now, I'm like a.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Welcome to the dark side. That's pretty oh man.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
You know, would there be an artist that you talked
about there's a country project on the way. I know
you got to meet the Sixers a drop, But who's
somebody you would want to do a whole album with
that isn't in your immediate camp?
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Many I mean, I ain't never just sat back and
been like, oh, I really want to do music with
Like when I if I messed with you and you're
an artist.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
It's because like I genuinely missed you, like me and
your music can sit in the room and not make
no music. Me and ot I feel like we can
sit in the room and make no music. But after
a while it's like it'll just happened.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Me and who else. I'm cool with.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Max u Cream we Heart, We doesn't be we didn't.
He came with me from to Miami for my birthday
for a week. We didn't make no music, just party.
So you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't. That's
the few industry friends I do have.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I don't. It's not I don't even look at the right.
If the music comes, it comes exactly.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
And so with that being said that the people I
don't think about for sure. Now it's just it's just
so I guess answer the question. I just I ain't
don't got one because don't really.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Yeah, I feel like every time I see the joys
getting much more bigger. Uh outside of the.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Ice cereputation, you gotta keep what.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Is the dumbest thing you've purchased.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
The dumbest thing I purchased. Huh oh.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna say these four thousand, but they
gave him my money back, though.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I had bought some four thousand dollar off white what
was they forstre off White.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Force four grand on a pair of Jordan's.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Somebody had spent three on them, okay, and I back

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, but that's gonna be in the future. He's finna
gonna turn this is the world with this album. My team,
I feel like it's one of the albums. I'm gonna
be honest with you. We you know, we done did
this how many times?
Speaker 2 (29:07):
But I don't.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
I don't think my album is gonna be as big
as they think it is. But I think that's more
because of It's like, you gotta actually listen, and we
in a town where people are actually listening to music.
It just gotta be catchy, like so it got to
be a certain part or the beat gotta be a
certain way. Yeah, the beat's gonna be crazy, but you
gotta actually listen to it. I'm talking about now. So
(29:32):
it's like they either gonna listen or they not.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I think they're gonna listen. Man, I think that's I
think that's the kind of project people have been waiting
for for me.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Man, I hope so.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
But they feel like this is a Grammy album. Yeah,
I will see.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
That kind of important to you.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Do you care about the industry recognition like a Grammy?
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean with all the funk shit that come from
and it make it worth it, you know what I'm saying.
Like it's it's like, okay, maybe I'm doing I'm going
through all this other shit for a reason.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Did you do anything with the BT Hip Hop Awards
this year? I had a I think I had I
had a show or something. Yeah, I had a show.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
That's just it's funny because like I'm one of the
voters now, so I just voted for all the homies.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Oh you just got you just got nominated for something.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, yeah, for the platform or whatever.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah. Look that's not a big deal. Yeah it's cool,
it's great.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Hey fucking I'll take it.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Man.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
I'm the only white guy nominated, you know. I mean,
I gotta take it for I feel like getting nominated
is to win for me because I'm not winning you
know what I'm saying. So it's like the fact I
got nominated is fucking sweet.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
But no, I'm the same way though, Like I don't
want to go to no Awards if I if I
got nominated, okay, cool.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
I want to go.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
I want to go because I've never tripped balls at
an award show. So I'm trying to go there off
of like a half of eighth of shrooms and just
soak it in.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
Yeah, that's gonna be hard. You know, that's gonna be hard.
I don't even know. I feel like you should be performing. No,
I don't get that.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I got so crazy to me though I ain't.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
I'm not and it's crazy. That's that should further show you.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I don't give a funk about the the fame part
of this.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Yes, I don't bother me. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
When I didn't get picked face here the first time,
that didn't bother me. They got I got picked this time? Okay, cool?
Like this the type of was that?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Was that a cool experience for you, like just going
to that photo shoot?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
It was, But I feel like it was took for
me though, because like everybody didn't do the freestyle like,
so I feel like the whole the full experience was
kind of like took away.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I feel like every year, the wrapping part of the
freshman experience becomes less and less important. Yeah, And I
feel like if I'm them, I'm like, yo, we want
to make sure we put people on this cover who
actually can like rap.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Yeah, I mean, because I don't, you know, I don't
free style for ship, right, but I still it's.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Like, that's something that's something you want to do exactly.
It's like, you know, I did a that's my freshman freestyle.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
So I just feel like, you know, it could have
been a bunch of niggas, could have sucked up and
everybody could have laughed.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
It's still just exactly.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
And then it's not like they'll make you nail it
one time, Like it's like we went.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Through that shit like thirty times. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
What's the name of the album, take Care? Take Care?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
You know it's crazy because I've.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Been looking at this Drake take Care on this damn
thing and the whole time. Yeah, and it's like I know,
I know, it's like, damn, you can't you can't talk.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
That take Care.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Did you have any any second thoughts about going with
that name because I did.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
But it's like it was just the message. I don't
know if his message, we didn't mind, might have been
two different messages.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
And so.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Mine really came from my grandma, Like she threw all
the rap stuff that woman is doing, who constantly checking
on me, constantly making sure she's you know, I'm straight right.
She's the only one who was making sure I was
taking care of here. So and she she said at
one time on the phone call, like she left me
a voice missage and she was just checking on me.
(33:08):
At the end of it, she was like, take care
And I was like, it's hard. That's what we're gonna.
That's what we're gonna the album. And I put a
little voice clip on the You.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Put that on a song.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Yeah, I mean I think that that's dope. Yeah, that
has real meaning.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
What Drake's take care of that.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
It was. It was a great album. It was hard though.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Yeah, did you just from being a fan of bars, Like,
were you pretty as a fan excited about you know,
the fact we got a battle between two of the
biggest hip hop artists of all time this year?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
It was it was entertainment I guess.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
It was super entertaining.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
It feels like there's like there's like like remember Ironman
Civil War. Yeah, it feels like for like three months
there was like a real life iron.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Man Civil War.
Speaker 3 (33:57):
Yeah, hip hop, it was like some people were Captain America,
some people were iron Man.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
You're right, it was. I mean it was cool.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
I feel like twenty one savagers in the middle, just
like who you think won?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Kendrick.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Yeah, it's not even a discussion. I mean, with all
due respect to Drake.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
How many times he went like we performed the song
like five times.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
I mean, listen, I went to the pop out. That
show was legendary. Kendrick Lamar I said this the whole time.
I said, look, Kendrick, ain't meek Man. You don't want
to play with that man. Bro, all due respect to me,
but it's like this it was good.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Though. How do you feel, like, how do you feel
about meek in the Diddy situation? I mean.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
He said he said he has a million dollars If
anybody meat mil tweeted, he's got a million dollars. Investigated
got a weird ship on him because he said he
wouldn't have partoned of that, but I'd like to point
out if it comes out that he was a part
of it, we're gonna call him cheek.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Meal cheak meal. One more questions. In my last question,
have you ever been to a Diddy party? No?
Speaker 3 (35:04):
No, I've been invited to one, and I didn't go
because my uh my wife was not kosher with that.
It was a bad night for my my current state
of my relationship. So I was like, if I go, yeah,
you know, I better go home. I didn't. I didn't
meet Diddy at the Dieheart Radio Festival he performed two
(35:27):
years ago.
Speaker 2 (35:28):

Speaker 3 (35:29):
He was out of breath the whole time. Though he
had like a little like a little gay assistant dude
running up there. He had like one of those like
you know, a gay assistant for sure anyway, so uh
so he had like you know those Stanley cups the
girls be drinking at them, so did He had like
a dazzled Stanley cup that his little assistant would run
up to him and like keep giving him drinks of water.
(35:51):
Because this was like his first big performance in a
long time, so he prepared for it. It was dope,
but like his son would go up Christian and perform
and then did he would run up and get his
little Stanley cup drink.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
You know what I mean. But it was cool.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
It was I was like, Yo, daddy's out of breath

that was the last show of his tour. So he
actually posted me on did you.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Drink a beer together? Drink beer? I feel like you
should drink a beer with him.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I mean, like if Willie Nelson asked you to smoke weed,
I mean you already smoke weed, you'd smoke with.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I don't know, I don't ready know who Willly is,
but like that's like snoop.

That's like the snoop for old white people.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Okay, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
And then if you want to do heroin, it's Keith
Richards from the Rolling Stones.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Good thing. I don't know who that is, the Rolling Stones.
I know who the Rolling Stones, but I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
You know, guitarist is like known for being like just
like a legendary drug user, but he's still alive and
he's like he's like eighty. So people always say, like
Keith Richards like figured out drug use because he's still
doing He's still on stage shredding, and I mean, by
all accounts, you know he's still partying a little crazy.
(03:50):
Would you still be partying like smoking backwards when you're eighty?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Guy, give him the strength to Yeah, you gotta make it,

Kyle, What the fuck?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Shout out to the six dollars Hot and Ready, though
formerly five dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I don't think none of it is new that you
you had a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
By the way, Little Caesar is one of the most
clutch restaurants of all time for sure. How many Little
Caesars Hot and Ready do you think you've taken down
in your life? I would venture I'm about two hundred
just overall.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say maybe a little more.
Maybe a little more than that. I used to stay
in Austin. That was the closest thing to me walking
this thing.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
It's so quick and it's five cheat yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
And if you get the extra the extra mostess with
the extra cheese and extra meat.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
You gotta get the buffalo sauce stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
On the pizza on the side.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah, he just did the pizza in it. That's gonna
make it amazing for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Talk about the new album, man, I know, uh, you know,
Meat Decision has been going crazy. You've been rolling out
the label very very well. I've been seeing those like
I've been seeing like everybody ship popping up on like
wrap Caviar and all the like, random playlists and ship
so like, congrats on the success of the compilation project,
because I know that's not the easiest thing that No.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
No, it wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
But uh, I mean, you know those guys, they work hard, right,
you know what I'm saying. So they took advantage of
the opportunity that I was giving and it's worked out
for him road going crazy Crazy everybody just kind of
like getting it in order before we going to it,
because you know they're going on to it. We mean,
I don't have no big person coming out before me.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
You just got your squad.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's just me and them, and so yeah, we are
just getting prepared for that. They're trying to get music
out before we going to it. That way, you know,
they got some people rocking with they still on the tour.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
I feel like some point in time during Hood's performance,
he has to freeze out with the crowd.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
The crowd like maybe or something you could pick like
four or five people out the crowd and let them out.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Pick crazy man. Who's on your album? Nobody Nobody, no features.
You're not a big feature guy, by the way, this
is not your thing.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I'm more of a me myself and outside.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But this is more of like a personal album though,
Like this is like a like you know me, but
now I'm introducing like the rat version of me, like
everything that he goes through. And at first it was
just shooting a bang bang making it sound good on
nice beats. Now we're actually talking about it's actual like
(06:31):
purpose behind well, I guess youse. I got one feature
on it and it's Walla.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
It's like a yeah exactly, so doing his wallow thing exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
What is the most personal record on this project?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Man, I'm I'm gonna have to say lost, lost for love, Yeah,
lost for love.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I was It's just I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I was just going through some some ship at a
time and my voice was gone. I wasn't able to
record nothing. And the shit happened. I had been trapped
and we was in La. It was out here. It
was a recording trip, so I had lots of my voice.
Wasn't supposed to be recording. Some shit had happened at
the crib. I was just going through it. I had
been in my room all day. I waited till like
two three o'clock in the morning to go downstairs. My
(07:18):
producer was sleeping the chair. I woke them up, like Hey,
come on, let's record, and that's what was recorded, and
it just I don't know, it just hit different that
the first time. I really just I guess wrapped some
some real personal stuff that was going on, you know, right.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yeah, so I feel like vulnerability, man, I feel like
it more vulnerable you could be on records some more
like fans are like connecting my lady.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And that's what I'm trying to cause
at first, I ain't really like I wanted to connect.
I care about connecting with my pans, but it's like,
do I really want to try to know?
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Like you know what I mean, Like they know big acts,
but they know you for real.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
But then I had to think about it.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
The same stuff you going through people might be going through,
but in a different manner because as it get better,
it get worse, right, that's for everybody.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
So when's the last time you were like kind of
like in a rut where you had to kind of
put yourself out mentally? Does that happened to you ever?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Every other day? Every other day? Yeah, real, the day it's.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Hey, it's it's it's you know, it's this rap this
this is a tough, tough game.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You know. I feel like too. It's like it's like
a lot of work bro.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Like you also, you guys have been so NonStop for
the last like two years. It feels like yeah, and
I'm sure longer, but I can only imagine like it's
just been like all right, what's tomorrow. We gotta do this,
we gotta do this.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
That's little conversations with me and my managers just call
of called me and be like, hey, you got to
do this, this, this and this. We leaving this day, yeah,
Brandon and called me, hey, now that you're here, we
got to go do this, this, this, this, this, you
leave this day.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Have you taken a vacation where you didn't work yet?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I just tried to but it didn't work out. Wh
would you go? I went to the Virgin Islands but
you were still working. No, Like, it's just I just
went in the right mind space. Yeah, how was it? Like?
What was it cool though? Or it was all right?
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Food was whatever. I feel like it just for when
it wasn't really nothing over there.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
I mean, you go to those places you really just
sit on the beach and eat.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
I know, but it's like when you see people going
on vacation they'd be like it's a bar. Everybody turned
on the beads, right, And that's what I thought it
was going.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Sounds like Adam Sandler movie. Yeah, yeah, wasn't that. Yeah, Nah,
you got if you're gonna go, like, you gotta go
to like all those like little beach towns are cool
if you literally just want to do nothing, Like you
got to make sure the resort's on points. So they
got like a I didn't even resort, like it was
just the airbnb. Yeah, no, you got to go to
a resort so they just take care of everything. And
(09:51):
then you get the all all inclusive for the you know,
it's it's it's it's like kind of like Little Caesars.
You go to all inclusive resort. All the food is free.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Now it's not all good, but it's good enough. Liquor free,
and the liquors free.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
You'll be on the fucking beach under a tent and
then you just like the lady will just bring you
unlimited food and drinks all day and you have to pay.
You just tipper. I mean you also don't have to tipper.
I mean, obviously I think you should tip everybody. Just
give her a little tip. You know what I mean.
You gotta go to the d R too. DR is crazy.
I heard they got this ship called Mama Wana, which
is like their version of Viagara, but it's an alcoholic beverage.
(10:32):
You drink it and it gets you like ready, you know,
they're called Dominican Power.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Was real.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Oh yeah, I was fucking my wife off that Mama Wana.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
For sure.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
It's like a jar and it's like wine soaked in wood,
but it's a It's at.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
The DR anywhere in the DR you go. They got
Mama Wana.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Ma Wan, you gotta try it man for you man,
talk to me, like things have been changing. I feel
like with all the plaques now and just some of
the accolades you've been hitting in, just some of the
recognition you've been getting in the industry finally, because I
feel like you were kind of like I would say,
somewhat slept on and like not you know, I feel
(11:15):
like everyone's starting to get hip now. Do you feel
the difference happening.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I feel like in like THEOD industry, I don't think
I was slept on.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I just don't do all the extra shit for sure.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
You don't do goofy shit.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
And I feel like that's what didn't put me just
front of the center. But that's not what I care about.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
So but I feel like now like like everyone's really
coming around and being like, oh yeah, Like I'll talk
to people and they're like, have you heard a big
ext the book?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I'm like, no idea that is, yeah, put me on.
What do you think about it?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
But are you feeling the difference now within the industry,
like the amount of respect you're getting, an amount of
love you're getting.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
I mean yeah, but it's like I am I've always
see like they'll tell you I'm way bigger than what
I feel like I am like I and I think
that's just because they it's just me, Like I don't
never I've never been the type of person to put
myself over somebody make myself feel like I'm bigger or
better or whatever. So it's like I don't. I still
(12:10):
wake up every day for them, like I'm a regular person.
I just got a little more money than the average person.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
For people who don't know, like how many certifications you
have now at this point as an independent artist.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Uh, four, four or five, that's not that's not including
the features, because I got one.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think I got to go on with and with
h O T y O T and uh Chibouzi.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yeah the records gold yeah ship So you got like
seven for real, like I said, five seven rates, pistol
packing is golden plant.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
That's hard that it's fire And I think my, I think,
my what the EP for the Go Go Brandon the
EP and the go Go the biggest the biggest EP
from the Go Go? I think a mar wind go.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Oh yeah, you're congrats, bro appreciation man, what is something
like like for you? Like, because I think what's dope
about your journey is that you've done it. I guess
I would say the the harder way by being independent. Yeah,
rocking with United Masters who does great on the district
side for sure.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Would there ever be a point in time where you
would consider like doing like maybe like a major label
deal or something, or even if like let's say, like
they come at you with a deal for six hundred
you know what I'm saying, Like, would you ever consider
the major route?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I mean it's if if it would just come down
to just meet No, I don't think so. I think
I'll always be independent just off the strength of I
made more money than everybody major or everybody.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Well lioten Man. Also, these major labels are getting stripped
down to the fucking bonus. Yea, everyone's getting fired. Yeah,
they're fucked for real.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
So, but no, I feel like I make more money
than a major label artist, so wow, we.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Get to keep all your money. And then you know,
you know what it is a lot of these major
label artists, they just chase.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
In advance and then they're you know, if we're being
completely honest, yeah, I chase the advance, but I didn't
want to lock myself into it, right like with this,
with this situation, it was.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Like a like a they don't own me. I'm taking
this advance where we still we still partners at the
end of the day. It's not like you own me.
So if I don't come up with this, you know
what I'm saying other sh exactly. And so I think
that's why I did that. And I ain't know what
I was doing. I wouldn't finna go to no major
and I don't know, I don't know nothing about the business.
(14:53):
So that was another reason why I came when you
had to message, is because I knew that they would
be I'll be able to learn the process.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
It's like a jake, like going to a JUCO, right,
you know what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly, I'm not going
to go to this d one and get red shirted
when I can go to this JUCO and bot out
and then still have the chance to go to a
major or fucking go straight to the league from the
you know what I'm saying from the juco. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
A clip of our interview from a while ago just
popped up on my algorithm about you talking about your
football career. People don't know, like how close were you,
like really to being able to like pursue football.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
So you got highlights online? Yeah, I was at my
I was at my JUCO.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
All I had to do was finish out a year
and I could have transferred to the University of Minnesota.
The Yeah, I didn't even make it through the first
I didn't make it through.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
The first semester because you were just like, fuck this ship.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Nah, it was it was a mixture of like homes like, yeah,
I was on some funck this ship, but it really
was weed. I started smoking weed. But that wasn't even
the problem. I everybody. I was only person who came
up on weed. It was like a Christian Juko. So
you see what I'm saying, like waiting none of that
type of stuff. So yeah, exactly exactly what they found
(16:11):
out I had to weed. They was like, oh my god,
we've never known for this to even be on campus.
So if you have it, we want some. And so
it just went from there. People start getting caught. People
start telling.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
When you're you, you must get so much free weed.
Do you ever like turn it down or do you
ever like like be like this ship, Ain't it like
even if it cause free? I would say free weed
is like free food, Like I take it. I don't
know if I eat it, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Yeah yeah, nah, I only I paid for weed in
like two years, like unless I just absolutely chose to
or like I was impatient. I can wait and get
a pound for free, but it'll takes like an hour
or two.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Or do I want to smoke you have to post it?
Uh no pound for free.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I literally got like a weed like deal with somebody
they already paid me to do. Oh yeah, and I
still can pull up when everyone just give you eat?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Well, I mean I think I've seen you do the
the old tap in with the telegram promos.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That's I want money.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Listen, listen, we gotta talk about this because there's there's
this whole underbelly of rappers doing telegram promo videos. They
must pay well.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
Yeah yeah yeah, like yo, make sure you hit the
telegram man probably you know packs are touchdown.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm just like, yo, whoever, like who like shots to
those guys because they are very like yeah, they're out
there with it, so that's like a part of the deal.
Like y'all plug the televide.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I think that's why they shut down on their telegram
ship now, like now they closing. It's bad for everybody,
the only fans people every day, anybody that's doing something.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Well, someone told me telegrams also like the new only
fans because like girls will have like a telegram channel.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Yeah that's what I'm saying. It just exposed all of it.
I think us doing those promos expose all of it
because it's not just me doing it. I don't seen everybody. Yeah,
I don't seen rappers do it everybody, So I thought
it was just me because I've been doing it the
like since when I was nobody I was doing them,
and so I thought it was just oh they still
(18:08):
they still sucking with me, But no, they getting everybody.
So I think they just kind of broke the berrier
for the people to start looking at it.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
And yeah, no, it's definitely an interesting game telegram. I
think that they arrested the president or the guy who
started it. They rested him in France.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
It's crazy because he knew. I guess you could say
he had to know this.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
But they're doing all kinds of crazy shit on telegram.
Like when I have my telegram and I can see
someone sign up for it.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Like yeah, yeah, I can tell they too because I
got a telegram.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
So getting alerts on telegram now, I'm like a.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Welcome to the dark side. That's pretty oh man.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
You know, would there be an artist that you talked
about there's a country project on the way. I know
you got to meet the Sixers a drop, But who's
somebody you would want to do a whole album with
that isn't in your immediate camp?
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Many I mean, I ain't never just sat back and
been like, oh, I really want to do music with
Like when I if I messed with you and you're
an artist.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
It's because like I genuinely missed you, like me and
your music can sit in the room and not make
no music. Me and ot I feel like we can
sit in the room and make no music. But after
a while it's like it'll just happened.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Me and who else. I'm cool with.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Max u Cream we Heart, We doesn't be we didn't.
He came with me from to Miami for my birthday
for a week. We didn't make no music, just party.
So you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't. That's
the few industry friends I do have.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I don't. It's not I don't even look at the right.
If the music comes, it comes exactly.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
And so with that being said that the people I
don't think about for sure. Now it's just it's just
so I guess answer the question. I just I ain't
don't got one because don't really.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Yeah, I feel like every time I see the joys
getting much more bigger. Uh outside of the.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Ice cereputation, you gotta keep what.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Is the dumbest thing you've purchased.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
The dumbest thing I purchased. Huh oh.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna say these four thousand, but they
gave him my money back, though.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I had bought some four thousand dollar off white what
was they forstre off White.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Force four grand on a pair of Jordan's.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Somebody had spent three on them, okay, and I back
doored and was like, and I want them. I have
been looking for him, and so I was like, they
weren't even my size, like a like a size smaller.

You squeeze it in.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Yeah, I don't even wear them because they hurt. But
I got them.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
You gotta trade them. Find somebody with the thirteen.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Well now, so now I really don't wear them because
the people. So basically it was like the sneaker con people, right,
they hit me up, wanted me to come dude, like
a live interview thing while I'm walking through they love
sneaker coun shit. And that's when I did. That's when
I did the shooesh. I feel like I did it
because I was on cameras.

You're on camera, Yeah, fucking run it.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
And that was the first thing I said. We walking,
I was like, I'm looking for some mouth white for us.
If I find something, whatever the price, I'm getting, right,
And so then we come across some and somebody already
bought for three thousand and so I was like, and then,
my dumb ass, I could have said three thousand and
one or three thousand and you know what I'm saying,
but just fucking.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
The whole the whole other band, the whole band that's
that camera sit can't even wear them and I can't
even wear I wore them twice and they hurt so bad.

But then boom they back doored and the sneker come

I feel like it's one of the albums. I'm gonna
be honest with you. We you know, we done did
this how many times?
Speaker 2 (29:07):
But I don't.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
I don't think my album is gonna be as big
as they think it is. But I think that's more
because of It's like, you gotta actually listen, and we
in a town where people are actually listening to music.
It just gotta be catchy, like so it got to
be a certain part or the beat gotta be a
certain way. Yeah, the beat's gonna be crazy, but you
gotta actually listen to it. I'm talking about now. So
(29:32):
it's like they either gonna listen or they not.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I think they're gonna listen. Man, I think that's I
think that's the kind of project people have been waiting
for for me.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Man, I hope so.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
But they feel like this is a Grammy album. Yeah,
I will see.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
That kind of important to you.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Do you care about the industry recognition like a Grammy?
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean with all the funk shit that come from
and it make it worth it, you know what I'm saying.
Like it's it's like, okay, maybe I'm doing I'm going
through all this other shit for a reason.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Did you do anything with the BT Hip Hop Awards
this year? I had a I think I had I
had a show or something. Yeah, I had a show.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
That's just it's funny because like I'm one of the
voters now, so I just voted for all the homies.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Oh you just got you just got nominated for something.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, yeah, for the platform or whatever.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah. Look that's not a big deal. Yeah it's cool,
it's great.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Hey fucking I'll take it.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Man.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
I'm the only white guy nominated, you know. I mean,
I gotta take it for I feel like getting nominated
is to win for me because I'm not winning you
know what I'm saying. So it's like the fact I
got nominated is fucking sweet.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
But no, I'm the same way though, Like I don't
want to go to no Awards if I if I
got nominated, okay, cool.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
I want to go.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
I want to go because I've never tripped balls at
an award show. So I'm trying to go there off
of like a half of eighth of shrooms and just
soak it in.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
Yeah, that's gonna be hard. You know, that's gonna be hard.
I don't even know. I feel like you should be performing. No,
I don't get that.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I got so crazy to me though I ain't.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
I'm not and it's crazy. That's that should further show you.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I don't give a funk about the the fame part
of this.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Yes, I don't bother me. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
When I didn't get picked face here the first time,
that didn't bother me. They got I got picked this time? Okay, cool?
Like this the type of was that?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Was that a cool experience for you, like just going
to that photo shoot?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
It was, But I feel like it was took for
me though, because like everybody didn't do the freestyle like,
so I feel like the whole the full experience was
kind of like took away.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I feel like every year, the wrapping part of the
freshman experience becomes less and less important. Yeah, And I
feel like if I'm them, I'm like, yo, we want
to make sure we put people on this cover who
actually can like rap.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Yeah, I mean, because I don't, you know, I don't
free style for ship, right, but I still it's.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Like, that's something that's something you want to do exactly.
It's like, you know, I did a that's my freshman freestyle.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
So I just feel like, you know, it could have
been a bunch of niggas, could have sucked up and
everybody could have laughed.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
It's still just exactly.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
And then it's not like they'll make you nail it
one time, Like it's like we went.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Through that shit like thirty times. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
What's the name of the album, take Care? Take Care?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
You know it's crazy because I've.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Been looking at this Drake take Care on this damn
thing and the whole time. Yeah, and it's like I know,
I know, it's like, damn, you can't you can't talk.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
That take Care.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Did you have any any second thoughts about going with
that name because I did.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
But it's like it was just the message. I don't
know if his message, we didn't mind, might have been
two different messages.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
And so.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Mine really came from my grandma, Like she threw all
the rap stuff that woman is doing, who constantly checking
on me, constantly making sure she's you know, I'm straight right.
She's the only one who was making sure I was
taking care of here. So and she she said at
one time on the phone call, like she left me
a voice missage and she was just checking on me.
(33:08):
At the end of it, she was like, take care
And I was like, it's hard. That's what we're gonna.
That's what we're gonna the album. And I put a
little voice clip on the You.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Put that on a song.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Yeah, I mean I think that that's dope. Yeah, that
has real meaning.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
What Drake's take care of that.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
It was. It was a great album. It was hard though.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Yeah, did you just from being a fan of bars, Like,
were you pretty as a fan excited about you know,
the fact we got a battle between two of the
biggest hip hop artists of all time this year?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
It was it was entertainment I guess.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
It was super entertaining.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
It feels like there's like there's like like remember Ironman
Civil War. Yeah, it feels like for like three months
there was like a real life iron.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Man Civil War.
Speaker 3 (33:57):

some people were iron Man.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
You're right, it was. I mean it was cool.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
I feel like twenty one savagers in the middle, just
like who you think won?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Kendrick.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Yeah, it's not even a discussion. I mean, with all
due respect to Drake.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
How many times he went like we performed the song
like five times.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
I mean, listen, I went to the pop out. That
show was legendary. Kendrick Lamar I said this the whole time.
I said, look, Kendrick, ain't meek Man. You don't want
to play with that man. Bro, all due respect to me,
but it's like this it was good.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Though. How do you feel, like, how do you feel
about meek in the Diddy situation? I mean.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
He said he said he has a million dollars If
anybody meat mil tweeted, he's got a million dollars. Investigated
got a weird ship on him because he said he
wouldn't have partoned of that, but I'd like to point
out if it comes out that he was a part
of it, we're gonna call him cheek.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Meal cheak meal. One more questions. In my last question,
have you ever been to a Diddy party? No?
Speaker 3 (35:04):
No, I've been invited to one, and I didn't go

meet Diddy at the Dieheart Radio Festival he performed two
(35:27):

Speaker 3 (35:29):
He was out of breath the whole time. Though he
had like a little like a little gay assistant dude
running up there. He had like one of those like
you know, a gay assistant for sure anyway, so uh
so he had like you know those Stanley cups the
girls be drinking at them, so did He had like
a dazzled Stanley cup that his little assistant would run
up to him and like keep giving him drinks of water.
(35:51):
Because this was like his first big performance in a
long time, so he prepared for it. It was dope,
but like his son would go up Christian and perform
and then did he would run up and get his
little Stanley cup drink.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
You know what I mean. But it was cool.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
