Speaker 2 (01:08):
So how does this work?
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Like when you interview people, do you like actually do
research or do you go on chat GPT or.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I don't know. I definitely don't do chat EPT.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Now, so what do you do?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
So all I have is my brain and then I
just I literally just air drop myself whatever talking points
your label sent me, but I mean set me talking points.
But it's like most I mean, all this shit is like.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
But you're gonna do some freestyling as well, right of
all of.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
My ship is all off the top. Ye, I'm not
like I do never have, like in my career written
down a question and like asked it. Like hey, so
I just like have like a few things on here.
Okay that i'm's out?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
All right?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
All right, people, I know you're used to this shit
going the other way around. Now I can go the
other way around. Pause, big pause. We kicked the interview
off tight. All the side is in the building, yes, sir, yeah, keV.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Hey manon, I feel like we have been waiting for
Tycoon for so long. I remember, damn driving a Coachella
and seeing the billboards.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Yeah that was April. Yeah, it has been a long time.
It's almost the end of the year, or it is
the end of the year, right.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
A couple of delays, but it's finally here. How's a feel, man?
And like like also like was the delays? Did it
change the sound of the album?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Definitely gave me time to you know, rethink some things
and take things to a higher level. Also gave a
couple of people time to change their minds. So I've
been just like going crazy this last week trying to
(02:44):
you know, get all these clearances right. And when the
clearance comes that doesn't work, you gotta you know, call
it audible. And I am Ti Dallas Sience. So I'm
not worried about it. I really do this music shit.
And you know, when people drop the ball, you just
got to pick it up and dunk that motherfucking nigga.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
So when you say people change their minds, like in
terms of like wanting to be on the album or
clearing the verse.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Or you know, it's a whole bunch of different little
shit that had happened, you know, during this last six months,
so you know.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
It's like a song that you that would have been
on the hour or maybe a feature that would have
been on the album if the Albu would dropped six
months ago.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It isn't on anymore exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah. Is that frustrating?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Though? It could get frustrated probably the first two days
and uh really me.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
You know that's when the fingers started pointing on why, well,
what if it was happened this way, then it would
have been done, if we would have just done But
you can't even think like that. You got to just
figure out solution. That's my whole ship.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Do you do?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
You take that shit personal though?
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I've taken personal for the first couple of hours for sure.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, because you're like, wait a minute, what because I
feel like it happens a lot too, like with artists.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Because it's like, I don't help all you niggas. Man.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I didn't like, you know, put money in hell of
people's pockets, and it's like, when it's time to look
out for ty Dolla sign, it'd be like, man, where's
everybody at? But I guess when you look at the
check list, they're like, what nigga, they're here, right? I
got a lot of friends that did show up, So
shout out to those of you that did show up,
(04:15):
and uh, you know, let's keep this shit going.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, I think too. Like, like you said, man, you've
kind of been such an integral part of so many
people's careers quietly, loudly, even like giving people records.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Like Yeah, for you, is it like.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Do you feel like you Cause you know what I
really loved about the Vultures Run was it felt like
you were finally kind of getting like a lot of
the respect and flowers I felt like you deserve for
so long because I always tell people like when it
comes to just pure talent, like I don't know if
there's any Like you're a fucking alien bro, Like you
can play the instruments, you could see, you could write,
(04:53):
you're one of the You're one of them ones for real.
But you know, for you, is it like, dude, do
you feel like you're finally kind of getting and that
the respect and the flowers in terms of like kind
of your contributions and just your talent in general.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I feel like I've been getting in for a while,
but the respect goes in different levels.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
For me, my career has always done this every single year,
So I've been I've been cool with it. Like I've
read where they say underrated this, underrated that. But to me,
it's like, look back at two thousand and ten, toutored
and booted until now and who else from back then
(05:35):
is still doing it at the level.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
All Star was crazy though, exactly, Like that is kind
of wild because it really is just like you and
from from at least from out here. I feel like
obviously the TD guys and YG Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And it's like.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
These days, it seems like it's easier to get it
hit because you got the internet. You know, you got
straight to the fans, you know what I mean. Anybody
can get on DSPs and a lot of people put
out songs and there's a lot of you know, songs
that go up when it seems like there's people that
are not even like real music people, you know what
I mean. Like, but the people that actually last is
a whole different thing. You know, it's easy to get
(06:13):
this ship, but who could keep it?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
What is it's hard to get this ship, it's even
harder to keep it.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah, it's easier to get it, but it's harder to
have the longevity what would you just feel like is like,
you know, the key to your longevity in terms of
just always being relevant for so long.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Just my knowledge on music, my passion for music, and
actually like loving what I do. I feel like that's
the only way you could do something for as long as.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I've done it. You got to have passion as long
as you you've done it. Yo.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
The crazy thing too, is the ten year anniversary to
free CC is coming up.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
The what anniversary?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I think it's been ten years?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Oh okay, I thought you said twenty And for real.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's a ten five. Jesus, ain't that old? Jesus? Can
you walk me through?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
First of all, that album is Crazy Horses is one
of my favorite records of all time.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
That is that was just talking about horses on the
my chat. I've been streaming this ship lately, tied.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I was on Twitch for those of you that don't
know my ship booming but uh and also shout out
to Dreysonatra for.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Helping me, Like, shout out to dre and get it,
you know, rolling this Happy birthday, Happy birth yesterday? Wasn't
it yesterday? Yeah? Yeah, Drey's birthday was yesterday. You forgot
damn well.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
You know what's even crazy if somebody told me, you know,
it's Dre's birthday, and like I had, I had like
fucking eighty things going on at once. That's my actual brother,
so I know he knows. I'm sure he has a
party coming up. I'm definitely.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I'm pretty sure he was at Sam's last night, right,
That is Dson not the type of thing either Sam's
or Hong Kong.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You're gonna be fifty DJ and then the strip club.
He's like that type of DJ.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
But you were talking about horses and you were Drake.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Oh, so this is in a stable.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I got fried for that song at first, like by
all the feminists and a lot of like uncool women,
and uh that's because I was like, you know, referring
to women as a horse. But a lot of people
don't know that my homegirl wrote that song. So shout
out to Tish, you're a fucking genius, and shout out
(08:24):
to those of you that understood the metaphor and didn't
take it personal, because you know, we got to stop
this whole sensitive this whole sensitive thing.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
You know, alcohol into the interview.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
We're bringing alcohol into the interview.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
What is this is this champagne.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
This is champagne. This is for you.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
This is uh, you know, I am a tycoon. I

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Yeah, that's fire. Were you like, did you guys have
a debate like which liquor you wanted to do and
was like, yeah, we had your champagne or what did
like did a tequila almost win?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
It actually came to me, man or it came to you. Okay,
it came to me.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
It fell in my lap. Pause, and I thought it
was a great brand. I thought it matched to, you know,
my whole vibe.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
It's a beautiful bottle.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Thank you, so shout out to the whole team.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I gotta get this in eleven eleven in scott Steel.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Yeah, we gotta get it there. What we got to
get it at eleven and eleven Scotts stuff. If you
haven't been to eleven eleven in Scott's, like.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
You haven't been there?
Speaker 2 (09:38):
I haven't.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Drayson Notchra's been there like fifty times I rased that part. Hey,
we got to stop the interview to tell you about
our good folks. Odd Socks man. Now, these are the
odd Socks Basics, ladies and gentlemen. Now when I tell
you this is a product that every single day I'm
alive for the last five years I have used are
(10:02):
these odd Socks Basics. Now, what odd Socks is doing
is they're kind of reinventing the sock game, if we're
being honest, and the underwear game. You know, a lot
of times you'll hit Walmart, you'll hit Target, you'll get
some socks, you get some draws. They're affordable, they end
up with holes in them. They don't really feel great.
Not odd Socks, ladies and gentlemen. These odd Socks Basics
are the most comfortable socks I've ever had on my feet.
(10:23):
Not only that, but you're super affordable. Fourteen ninety nine
for a six pack. That's it Oddsocks dot Com. And
if you don't believe me, sock check full. Wait, that's
the ex is on the other side. There we go. Ah,
you see that. Sorry, you had to see those white
(10:44):
lakes but it's so dope that you know, I get
to push a product that I use and that I love,
so odd Socks they got the six pack of socks
for fourteen ninety nine at odd socks dot com. The basics,
this is the future of socks, the future of underwear,
comfort and affordability. I'm talking about affordability without jeopardizing the
(11:05):
quality because they are the most comfortable socks you ever
put on your feet. Ladies and gents, uh and the ETCeteras.
Got to show love to the ETCeteras. We like all
the stripes on the flag. There are odd socks dot com.
Man much love to my brothers over there. Make sure
you get some right now, odd socks dot Com. Let's
get back to the interview. But no, like, can you
kind of just like let's talk about the ten year
anniversary of this album because I felt like, you you know,
(11:28):
it kind of accumulates with the Coachella situation because you
had such a powerful moment at Coachella, incorporating your brother,
You had Dre dress like a damn cop.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
It was.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
But it was, you know, it was it was such
a well thought out set and I felt like, you know,
there was a lot of messaging behind it too, But
in terms of even just like this album being called
free TC dedicated to your brother, Like, you know it's
been ten years, man, Like, how is he doing? And
how how cool was it to be able to kind
of bring him to the Coachella.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It is very cool, man.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Was it easy to make happen?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Really?
Speaker 3 (12:06):
It's just like a video from back in the day
that I had him singing and I had my video
guys put it up on the video wall. I added
backgrounds and music to the song that my brother was
already singing, and you know, we really make this music.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
So it was easy for me. It was easy to
get it up there.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
It was kind of harder to perform pull back tears
and shit like damn, I finally could to, you know,
perform with my brother on Coachella.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We figured it out. You know, it ain't a hologram
or nothing but right, but we did it.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Yeah, it was definitely. Yeah, I thought that was that
was special man. This new album, how would you describe it?
Because I feel like each one of your projects has
its own kind of like aesthetic and vibe even sonically. Yeah,
where would you say Tycoon is at?
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's just.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
You know, went up on the sound. I advanced the sound.
I can't never give you guys the same thing that
I did before. But it's still you know what you
it's still banging. You feel me, it's banging. It's it's
it's what you want. It's like everything that you want
with the song, but to the next level, just like
you know, doctor and the sounds not using the same
sounds as anybody else. The bars are up, I'm like,
(13:22):
barn it out. My vocals are up, the backgrounds are back,
the runs are going crazy. Everything is there. If you
want R and B, that's there. If you want the club,
that's there. If you want the the festival, that's there.
If you want if you want something to bathe to
or to get dressed to, that's anything too.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I fucking hate shrooms.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I don't I love them.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Brou I don't know if you ever, I don't. I
don't want to like uh into existence for you. But
you know how you you have that like what do
you call it? The endorphins go off and like you
get the full happiness, right. Yeah, it can also go
the opposite way. So one time I'm I'm on my
(14:06):
radio run for my song motion, which we put out
what last year or right before the Vultures project, This
is what I put out. So two years ago I
put this out and I go on the radio run.
So we started in the Bay and we're going all
the way down California. I do the Bay Ones. It
goes well. I do the Central cow one. What is
(14:29):
that called? Not Fresno, but we're Anderson Pacts from Tura.
I do that, and then I got to go from
there to like Bakersfield or to Fresnoe or something. So
it's like another hour long however, and I do the
shows right before that. Get on this radio show. I'm
funny as hell. I'm going crazy. Everybody's loving it. Get
(14:53):
in the car, look at my phone. And this just
happened to be the day that they called me and
told me Big Why I die? Bro Big from the
Relatives who also signed Cali Swag District, who also just
did a lot for La Rap, you know, and one
of the best Ellie rappers ever and one of the
best Big homies ever. When that happened, Bro, and I
(15:14):
was off shrooms and I'm in the back seat by myself,
nobody to talk to. It's just like maybe never want
to do that shit again. And I'm a firm believer
of weed. That's all we need. But weed is not
for everybody.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
I say that, Yeah, but because like you don't eat weed,
do you?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I don't eat weed. I hate fucking.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Edibles are the devil broy. I think edibles is like
I could I could eat a fucking full eighth of
mushrooms and be okay if I have like.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
You said, I could eat ass and be okay.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
But if I eat if I eat like twenty five
fucking milligrams of edibles, I am twacked.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If I eat one fucking gummy bear of edibles on twig.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
That shit is terrible, And then you can't get rid
of it. You gotta like just you just gotta just
get through. It's yeah, it's bad, it's it's it's it's
interesting too, because I feel like, for you, man, do
you feel like this project is like because this is
your first album with easy Money being like on the
(16:18):
back of it, right, Yeah, do you feel like this
album is like like for you, like it's got to
be like a statement too, because you know, the Vulture
Drone was crazy, it felt like it was forever by
the way, but this is the first project since then.
Like you said, you know, I kind of feel like
the Vultures thing kind of came and like probably just
kind of threw a fork into any of the plans
(16:39):
that you had come in. Is this album a statement?
And was this all new music since Vultures?
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Like, yeah, this is just a I even pulled up
some of the stuff with my hard draw from then
that I didn't use that was still fire. I got
new stuff because you work.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
So much day and you probably get demoitis.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Sometimes I get demoitis, but I'm always down to like
upp a song and you know, experiment with it. So yeah, man,
I almost full of slap after slap after slap.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah. It's funny because I remember I went to your
house one day, by the way, random night, I got
invited to your house to listen. I think it was
the Future inside all this album? Yeah, the Purple One
was that that one? Yeah, this is like a year
before that album actually comes out. And ushers at your house,
which was random as fuck, and me and Usher have
(17:36):
like a thirty minute conversation about how shitty the Game
of Thrones finale was in your kitchen, and I was like,
what the fuck this what is my life right now?
But nonetheless, you played me this album and it sounded
like it was. Not to say that I loved. I
loved what I ended up coming out, but it was
so different, like from what you played me. Yeah, so
(17:56):
like what actually came.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Was like what I played you was, I was making
an album called Tyron at first, it wasn't what I
ended up putting up. I ended up putting off future
entire dollars on because that's just what happened that week.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Is just like Tycoon. If I would have played it
for you six months ago, six months ago, it was
a little different. There was a couple of different songs
that I didn't end up using, just because of the
time that we are in this month. You know what
I mean.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You've had a lot of success with being a CEO, man,
and this is not obviously easy but easy money is
not like your first foray in trying the thing, because
you had the movement. Yeah, and fast forward, now we
got a guy, you know, Leon who is a superstar
in his own right. Yeah, and uh, it's got to
(18:46):
feel good, man, to kind of be able to put
on that hat and just get success, you know. And
and that that's that's I mean, he's such a talented guy. Man.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
But what I've learned from all of this and what
I've learned from anything that you do in life, it's
like shit may take time, but it's only going to
not happen if you stop. Like I don't believe in
that canceled shit either, if like if the only way
you can get canceled is if you stop as well,
you know what I mean, Like you.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Can for sure if you let the noise stop.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
You can't let people just tell you no. You got
to just keep on going and shit, And there will
be a lot of those, There will be a lot
of those that are close to you, which makes it
even crazy. It's like you motherfuckers are supposed to be
with me, you know what I mean, Like the beginning
of my whole career, Like I've been making music since
I was four years old, and I didn't get on
(19:38):
until I was twenty seven. For real, My daughter was
born in five and two, didn't Buddha didn't come out
until two thousand and nine, didn't really like have a
record company behind it until twenty ten, and I still
didn't have a record deal, you know what I mean,
I end up giving that song up for free, but
we definitely got to perform and getting people's faces and and.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
You know, get a name.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So what was it about?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
How it's gonna happen?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I would say, what was it about? Like, uh, you
know that.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
That that whole time everybody's telling me get a job.
You know, music is my mom saying music is a hobby.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Da da da da.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
So it's like fast forward, Yeah, exactly what was it about? Leon?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Though?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That kind of made you want to, like, you know,
kind of be the face of the new venture. And
I mean, obviously he's so talented, man, I mean the
music speaks for itself.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
On was just like the top level music that I
had heard likes to this day from when I first
heard him, Like, no one else is coming and been
as good as Leon.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
And I feel like at that time in the industry world,
everybody was afraid to touch something like that. It's like
all the music that was successful was fruity loose music,
you know what I'm saying. Able to music just like
program like simple shit and when's the last time you
heard somebody come out playing all live shit and get
a real hit. And it was like even after we
(21:02):
made the first album with him, everybody's calling me like, yo, Ty,
you need to give him some club shit. You need
to give him like a real radio smash d D
da DA. And I actually had the conversation with Leon like, Yo,
all right, well we could do this, we could do that.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Let's just fuck around.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
And I end up calling him back the next fifteen
minutes like, bro, I'm tripping. I sound like a real
record company, nigga. These are the people that I've hated
my whole career.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
That Yeah, Like, imagine me calling you saying, hey, we
need to get a club record.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, like, and.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I was like, stick to doing you. I promise you
it's gonna work. I love this shit. I know it's good.
You know it's good. Everybody around us knows it's good.
And the next thing, you know, he gets Mutt and
it works.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
And Mud is one of them, like it is for
people who don't understand. Like on the radio side of things,
there are songs that like won't Die, like is still
in power rotation, It won't go away. It's always in
the top, like it hit number one for so long
and then it just won't. There's so it's crazy the
like shelf life of that record at radio.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Man, the people know, the people can feel it, and
that's all I gotta say. It's like, we know what
real music feels like. We know when a song is good.
We know, and that's why it's lasting.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Were you able to learn anything from, like, you know,
your time with like Taylor Gang in terms of like
maybe taking some stuff from Will and Whiz and applying
it to your own situation, your own imprint.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Yeah, everything I've done from the beginning until now, I
apply it to my.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Own, like just the whole journey.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Shout out to Will, Shout out to Whiz, everybody from
Taylor Gang.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
We're still rocking. I just seen.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
I just came out on Wizard Show the other day.
The main thing I learned from Wiz is, uh, whether
you're the number one by the books artists in the
world or not, you could still be a nice motherfucker.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
You could still be cool to people.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Don't have to be a fucking dick bro and so
many people in this game or fucking assholes. But I
think that's because that's what they think you have to
be in order to you know, to win or to
keep your spot. And like that's the other thing to
keep in your spots. Shit, it's like, what this room
for everybody? If it shits good, bro, it's gonna be
the people who got to fuck with it. But you
(23:16):
can still put people on, Like what good is the
tree that doesn't bear fruit?
Speaker 2 (23:21):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (23:22):

(24:32):
my life you invited me to Vegas for the Vulture
shit and I ended up being in that fucking viral. Yeah,
you're playing pool and and it's funny because that night
I don't know how.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Much of you I got, how much money I took
from these guys that night listen.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I end up in a sprinter with your daughter Leon
and my boy Ron and we're going to whatever middle
of the desert listening things that ended up being.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Like a ship show by the way, that was like
only tw people in there.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Whatever it was, we didn't getting stuck in the sprinter
and bro Me and Leon Toms.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh, yeah, you guys didn't make it till the right
We were stuck.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Jalen was supposed to come on stage, and Jalen come
on and she just never come.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Bro me and that night because at that time, like
I'd heard of Leon Thomas, but I didn't like nobody
looked like So we started shooting the ship and me
and him like split a bag of mushrooms in the
sprinter and on the way like by the time we're
heading back to the Four Seasons, we're fucking twacked and
we're just like we're just like Ooxcord battling, like trippy.
(25:35):
I'm like playing Tame and Paula. He's playing Pink Floyd.
And then we end up in this room and like
fucking I'm just like, fuck kid cut there. I think
Little Dirk was there. Yeah, it was one of the
crazy It was one of the craziest nights ever. That
was the night the album was supposed to come out.
It was like the night. Yeah, wait, what when you
(25:56):
think of like some of these records that like would
probably never see a lot of the officially, Like I
think about that Back Street Boys record.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah, man, jeez, that's like that one hurts that is
a fucking why because it's like if that would it
came out the Carnival.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Bro oh my god, you had Charlie Wilson on that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
That shit was crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Did you guys know it would be a hard record to
try to get cleared?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
I thought it would be just because of like the situations, you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Know, just because everything all the noise, and yeah, all
the noise because it's on YouTube and like I know,
Motherfuckers was playing that ship like Drake was Drake was
playing that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The crowd goes nuts.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Have you thought about I'm cool with the Backstreet Boys too,
and like AJ's my homie, we work on music, and
do you have the stems to that?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Have you thought about you just putting it out? It's
an idea.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I mean, it's an idea. It could happen.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
It's such a great record, I would.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Say, yeah, did bring that to the table though, So.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's fair. That's fair. By the
time this comes out, your album will already be out.
So I don't think the track list is out there, right.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I think I played a lot of the records on stream.
I had a couple parties when we talk.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
About some of the futures, because I don't know who's
on this album outside of yeah, you know Tori.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
I mean, but like I said, some of the people
that were some of the songs, some of the people
that were on the album last week may be different
this week.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Coming out twenty four hours from now. Yeah you know,
Tory Lane will be on the album.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Toy is on the album. Any song that out officially
is out officially.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
How old is the toy verse? Six seven six seven?
Shout out to that motherfucking shout out the toy man,
and you could do what get a lot done on
the iPhone.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Hey, I don't know about none of that, but all
I'm saying is shout out to the Tory Man.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
I love my brother.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I guess I'm the king of like messing with people
that are canceled or messing with people everyone else gives
up on. But I don't give up on my people.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Man.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
You know, everybody goes through what they go through. We
all make mistakes, we're all humans, And like all you
little judges out there, I can't wait till the day
that you fuck up and everybody's pointing the finger at
your stupid ass.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Then you want to talk about alien. I mean, he's
one of those guys with you that's just a fucking alien. Yeah,
for sure, all time talented guy. And like that album
he dropped, was it last year or this year? Was
it last year? Like that one that he was like
apparently recorded in jail.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Yeah, that shit was hard. It was hard as fuck.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
I mean he's always, you know, when it comes to music,
he's him.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Do you feel like when you when you like because
I feel like there are very few I kind of
talk about this on the MC side a lot when
I talk to like Freddy and like some of these
guys where I'm like, yo, there's only a few Jedies
out there. Yeah, like lyrically, you know what I'm saying.
But I feel like when it comes to like your space,
there's really only a few Jedies. It's like you, it's Chris,
It's Tory damn near, it to Jamie Fox. Motherfuckers who are.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Just Jamie Man. Shout out to Jamie.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
But who else would you consider to kind of be
in that realm of just raw talent when it comes
to just everything.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Of course, I'm a big of Leon. He's really that guy.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Another person that is on the album that I found
out this about super Jedi Chloe Bailey. She fucked me
up when she came through the studio. First of all,
she came solo. She didn't come with a big as squad.
I'm like, all right, she sits down, I'll play the album.
She's like, all right, I like this one. And she
(29:39):
gets up and she asked my engineer for his seat,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
And she works the pro tools and records herself.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
She was engineering herself.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Bro, She's fucking incredible.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
And then fast forward, I'm watching her gram and I'm
watching her make beats and record everything right there on
the ground. So she's another one of us. Sure, shout
out to Chloe.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
I saw you working with Destroy Lonely on the new album. Yeah,
he's a he's a nice guy man. We did an interview.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
I love him, man. I'll just ran into him last
night at the Cardi show.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Oh you went to the Cardis show?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
It was crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Cardi's live shows.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Are fuck crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I said, this man spent so much on them them
so Woofer's man, I couldn't fucking hear my thoughts.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
You know what's crazy is I saw him when he
headline rolling a loud out here earlier this year. There's
just so much fire and like he had these like
he's got them like little white dudes on stage and
look malnourished, but they're fucking a vibe.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah, vibe. This show it was like, yeah, it was
fun rock Hendrick out. Yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Crazy And that was the only thing you could see.
It's like everything else, it was like super fucking dark.
You just saw like Hella flashing and then Kendrick pops
out on the ship.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
I was like, where the fuck is Cardy? I couldn't
see him.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Do you feel like I want to ask you this
because you are somebody?
Speaker 2 (30:55):
But I like that though.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
That was dope for the vibe, Like for just doing
something that no one else.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Is doing, do you feel like because you are? We
talked about it earlier. One of the guys who's been
holding the LA flag down for fucking since, you know,
fifteen years now. I felt like the Kendrick moment happens
with not like Us and obviously GNX and just that
whole from like that all the way up until the
super Bowl. Yeah, and you know, a lot of new
(31:22):
artists get a lot of opportunity on GNX from the City.
How do you feel like do you feel like LA
artists responded correctly when it came to kind of like
doing their part to keep the momentum going, kind of
take that torch from you know, because Kendrick kind of
set it all up.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
You know what I'm saying. Now, everybody's doing this stuff.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Shout out to Kendrick first of all, or putting everybody
in position like he was supposed to. Like I said,
what good is the tree that's not bearing fruit? So
shout out to him for that. The album was Crazy,
his whole you know, he was on my first album Crazy.
He's always been with us, So shout out to Dot
and the whole team.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
As far as everybody else, Yeah, everybody's doing the thing
I'm seeing. Uh, everybody keep on dropping records.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
That's all you could do.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Like to me, this music shit is down there like
Dice shooting Dice and ship.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
You never know.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
But as long as you keep on shooting, staying in
the game, one of the motherfucker's going to hit.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I damn. I feel like Shortline is kind of just
like really been going stupid Jesus bro Like, oh Jeezy
is Shoreline.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Yeah, they've had a year though. Yeah they keep dropping
after it.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, like they moved on from the out they got ship.
They ain't even on the album that they're like it's yeah,
it's it's special.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
They got it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
I think I think we got to like start having
a conversation about those guys in terms of just like
you want to talk about longevity too. They you know,
they're going on eight nine years since that Soundclass ship was.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Going on some ship. It's like, you see how everything
is set up. It's like certain people are gonna get
the full push and uh this some of us that
got to just work extra hard, you know, me being
one of them.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
For sure, especially well they had to leave that building
to get the fool push to be fair, right, Yeah
are you still in that building? Yes you are.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
I'm still in the building. Yeah. Uh I know how
to push myself.
Speaker 1 (33:16):

Speaker 2 (34:22):
Yo.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
I think back to that Source magazine where it was you,
Mustard and YG on the cover, big moment. I'm sure
you guys have kicked around the idea of doing a
whole project together.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
That's still my dream. I've been talking about that forever.
It's just like us all, you know, taking time off
and locking in certain times. We'll get a song off,
we'll get two days together. Da da lah, and you
know then must of to get a call to go
do what he did. I'll get a call to go
do what I did. You know, just it'll be on
(34:57):
what he's on. So we just need to lock in, man.
Right before Vultures, me and Mustard did a whole album together.
We didn't end up dropping it, but some of those
songs were on Vultures. Some of the Stars do It Nah,
(35:17):
we had did that recent We did that like during
the Vultures time, but Stars was.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
On me and Muster's project. There's a couple others way.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
This is just crazy that you're like, yeah, me and
Mustard did a whole album and y'all will only hear
like whatever's already.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
But one of the songs, one of the songs is
on Tycoon Fire and anything that's fired. Man, I just
look at it like like I said, as Dice, you know,
you just gotta throw it at the right time, and
it's timing is everything for real.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
When y'all got Nipsey's Verse on, do It, what was
that process?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Like that was from a song that me and Nipsey
had and basically I just took the vocal and added it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
To the new song. That shit came out crazy, Thank
you man, and.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Long lived Nip. We had to get that song out.
That was like originally a song me, Nip and Cardi B.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
And a word.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Yeah, it was crazy, and uh, you know, I couldn't
just let it sit on the hard drive forever.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Why didn't that Why didn't it come out originally?
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Who knows?
Speaker 3 (36:18):
It's like Nip put out the project that he put
out last you know, Cardi B put out whatever she
put out.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
I put out whatever I put out.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
It's just like certain times that the song just needs
to find a home, and luckily we found a home
for it and it didn't just collect dust on the
hard drive.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
I just saw you throw out the idea because one
of my favorite mixtapes you have is an Airplane Mode.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Yeah, such a good project, thank you brother.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
But I just saw you. I don't know, I don't
know if you reposted something you were like airplane two,
Airplay Mode two.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Yeah, Airplay Mode two. I'm about to drop that right
after Tycoon.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
So that's a thing.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
It's like.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
I've been on this streaming thing and I just playing
hell of songs and people go crazy for him.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I'm like, what the fuck am I doing? Bro?
Speaker 3 (37:06):
I got Airplane Mode two, I got a new sign language.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I got an.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
House that I'm working on. I got a Whoop too
with me and Joe Moses.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
I think sign Language is my favorite state that you
ever put out.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Thank you, that's crazy. Most people will say Beach House.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
I think a Sign Language was just crazy though. I
think that was when Big Sean was on right.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Yeah, yeah everybody, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
But yo, how do you get that ship on DSPs?
Is it even possible? Because I saw like Cushion Orange
Juice ended up on DSPs, Like a lot of these
old mixtapes are starting to pop up. Rick Rick Ross
put out Rich Forever, Like.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
I just got to give my team, right man, That's
all it is.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
Yeah. Do you feel like if you ever could, could
you ever see yourself going independent now that you've kind
of figured out now?
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, yeah, I definitely could. I got another album with Atlantic.
I'm excited about that. That's about to go crazy. There's
a whole new team at Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
I saw that, and uh, you know it's about to
go up. That's all I can say.
Speaker 1 (38:05):
They've kind of resell the whole staff over there. Yeah
you think that's like a good thing.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Yeah, it's a good thing. Bro.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
It's all new young blood in there. It's all hungry people.
Because I still love my old team.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Somebody is your friend. Yeah, I'll be like, Yo, how
is it that fucking You've had so many records to
me that should have been.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
Like yeah, And I'm like, what the fuck's.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Like Atlantic Records if it ain't already fucking like set
on fire in the fucking middle of the alley, like
and they could, they could come through a poor gas
on it.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
It's like, you know, it's it's like it was a
sad day, like seeing the people that you work with forever.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah, shout out to all the homies over there, like
you know, Dwight and a lot of a lot of
the homies who unfortunately lost you.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Know, Yeah, shout out to all of them. And I
love you guys. But it's just like how business works
and how life works. You know, when the news shit comes,
are you going to just keep on being sad and
ship or are you going to adapt?
Speaker 1 (38:58):
You got to adapt.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
We gotta adapt.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
We got to accept the new and we got to
pick up the new people, you know, like I said,
a new team, young, hungry, and uh, it's about to
go up.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
What is uh the one record of yours that ended up?
It could be a hook you did. It could be
one of your own records that you just hated but
it just cracked.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
Uh two didn't put it. When I first did it,
I thought it was like what the fuck? But that
happened to be the first record that put me.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
On, changed changed all y'all's lives.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Yeah, for real.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
For Hot Girl Summer is kind of like, uh, you
know what I mean, Like it was one of those
like what the fuck that ship went dummy?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Oh it went dummy? It did for that year. Oh yeah,
God the fact that I don't think we're ever getting
here Megan Nikki on a record together again. So and
it was a moment because I mean that was like
Hot Girl Summer.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Was a thing, yeah for sure.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Yeah, but you didn't love it, nah, not for real
like when you cut it.
Speaker 3 (40:02):
Nah, And I don't like love it to this day
like that, But like there's people that love it, and
I'll performance for the ladies for sure.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
You know one do you still like because I do
feel like there's like an era of your career where
you were just like kind of giving out so many
big records. Yeah, what's that? What's that like thought process
like for you now where you really don't need like
you are you being a lot more selfish with with
with joints? Are you still collaborating?
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Like I just love making music, so you know, I'm
down to still collaborate, but I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Man.
Speaker 3 (40:36):
After this album, after folds, it's like I'm starting to
hate collaborating. Yeah, you know what I mean, I'm starting
to fucking hate it cause it's like shit just gets
weird for sure.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
Yeah, it's almost like when there's so many moving parts,
so it's like you can have a relationship with somebody,
but then there's the label.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
The teams do all of this shit myself, man, Like
I really don't need nobody.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
I never did, so let's not get that fucked up
for sure.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah. The last time we did an interview, I was like, yeah,
I would love to see you work with the Alchemist.
You ended up being on the Alchemist Larry June album.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
But that's a lie because like I said earlier, this
whole music, it's like a band. It's like it's a team.
It's always a team, you know. So in general, Yeah,
but I can't do everything myself. I do know how
to do everybody's job.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
But you was I was saying, you ended up working
with Alchemists.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
Oh yeah, And I just ran into Alchemists at him
and Hip Boys party up in New York. And I've
been telling Alchemists I want to do a whole project
with him and like really like tap into that sound
that was like my original tian Corey sound. Right, That's
where I come from. And I feel like me and
Alchemists make a whole project. It'll be crazy. I also
(41:50):
want to make more of a mad live. We'll see
what happens, man.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
But don't you and Freddie got a lot of unreleased
stuff from the Vultures era.

the Vultures there we got in the studio and we
made some crazy shit as well.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
So I feel like you and Freddy could do a
little pack, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, it's still

is it gonna take for you to be like we

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Is it like you know we just signed for artists?
Damn Uh.
Speaker 3 (43:21):
This dude named r J the Widows Crazy Stage from Texas.
He's like this rapper but he also dances and he
just got bangers. He got crazy bars. Keith Turner, He's
a DJ, makes beats and all that shit. He's hard.
Wm on leaving out.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
You said four, there's three. You're just letting name.
Speaker 3 (43:43):
Uh oh, what the fuck? Busy Busy Crook from my Miami.
That Nigga's incredible aunt.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
He's been around. He helped Leon ride on Mutt and Uh.
Speaker 3 (43:56):
He's just incredible with the songwriting and his songs and
I believe in him.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
He did a record like, uh probably twenty fourteen. There's
like a letter to Kanye for real. Yeah, it was tight.
It was like blog air ended the blog aeric.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
Kind of, but it was I never even heard that
joint you.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Like kind of. It was like a dedication song to
Kanye kind from what I recall, Busy's busy's been tough though,
for sure.
Speaker 2 (44:18):
Hell yeah, hell yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
So yeah, so you're gonna be busy. So I guess
you're going to be busy. I mean, like, how do
you fucking like compartmentalize, man, when it comes to like
doing the CEO shit.
Speaker 3 (44:29):
Well, when it comes to the artists, first of all,
I'm not really fucking with nobody like you, Like you
uh brought up the fact that I had all these
other different situations, my other labels, my other you know, adventures,
So I've gone through a lot of child and error.
And when it comes to that, I'm only fucking with
easy lifters, meaning like people that got this ship.
Speaker 2 (44:52):
Together kind of like self managed. Yeahbyit exactly. So that's
how I compartmentalized the record company shit. And then and
I do my artistry shit. Every day.
Speaker 3 (45:02):
I try to get at least for three to four
songs a day on a bad day, seven to nine
to eleven on a good day. When I just did
this airplane mode too, I did it all in one day,
eleven songs, and I added like the other a few
songs the next day.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
So you'll go in general, your general rule is three
to four songs a day you're making.
Speaker 3 (45:23):
Yeah, that's like how I treated as a job, you
know what I'm saying. And that could be feature, it
could be my own song, but I'm at least gonna
get four in. And then now I've been back on
the beats. I wasn't making beats for a long time.
I was talking about this earlier on Power Basically when
(45:43):
Chakaso got killed, I feel like that fucked me up,
and probably my way of grieving was I didn't touch
the NPC no more, where I used to just do
fifteen beats a day, you know what I mean. And
then now YG came to me like right before I
did this Hollywood joint and it was like, I want
you to produce my album, bro, Like I already.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Know you're gonna kill it.
Speaker 3 (46:06):
So that's when I just started going in and trying
to find something that everybody wasn't doing, and we'll work
for the West right now, and like, how can we
make this shit fun again? And I came up with
that beat for Hollywood, and I've been cooking some other
shit for his album, so we bot.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
I didn't even know you did that beat. Yeah, Bro,
the son is crazy?
Speaker 2 (46:26):
Oh yeah. And Homie damn. James added to it as well,
So shout out to.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
Him when you hear that hook on there when you
first hear it, drink.
Speaker 3 (46:34):
So look, man, when I first made the beat, even
before James added to it, the vocal part that I
kept on hearing in my head was like some wrapping
fote oh type flow.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
I can hear that.
Speaker 2 (46:47):
So I'm like, who sounds like that? Today? Oh?
Speaker 3 (46:50):
Geez called him to the studio and was like, Yo,
let's do this for YG. So he did his part.
Then I called YG. YG did his part. Next thing
you know I'm getting. I was like, oh, Shoreline trying
to put this out on their album and they're performing
at Coachella.
Speaker 2 (47:04):
This is gonna be perfect. And I'll tell y G.
Speaker 3 (47:07):
He's like, nigga fuck no, oh no you So shout
out to a Shoreline and uh and YG man, we
made that ship happen.
Speaker 2 (47:18):

Speaker 1 (47:22):
You know who I would love to hear you do
like a something like a body of work with is

I've been wanting to work with Quick forever. We have worked,
but like we ain't really like two weeks. Yeah, man

Hell and Ship, and he's always been the one to
connect me with quick So hopefully it happens one day.

going crazy.
Speaker 3 (48:06):

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Like when you interview people, do you like actually do
research or do you go on chat GPT or.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I don't know. I definitely don't do chat EPT.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Now, so what do you do?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
So all I have is my brain and then I
just I literally just air drop myself whatever talking points
your label sent me, but I mean set me talking points.
But it's like most I mean, all this shit is like.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
But you're gonna do some freestyling as well, right of
all of.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
My ship is all off the top. Ye, I'm not
like I do never have, like in my career written
down a question and like asked it. Like hey, so
I just like have like a few things on here.
Okay that i'm's out?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
All right?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
All right, people, I know you're used to this shit
going the other way around. Now I can go the
other way around. Pause, big pause. We kicked the interview
off tight. All the side is in the building, yes, sir, yeah, keV.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Hey manon, I feel like we have been waiting for
Tycoon for so long. I remember, damn driving a Coachella
and seeing the billboards.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Yeah that was April. Yeah, it has been a long time.
It's almost the end of the year, or it is
the end of the year, right.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
A couple of delays, but it's finally here. How's a feel, man?
And like like also like was the delays? Did it
change the sound of the album?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Definitely gave me time to you know, rethink some things
and take things to a higher level. Also gave a
couple of people time to change their minds. So I've
been just like going crazy this last week trying to
(02:44):
you know, get all these clearances right. And when the
clearance comes that doesn't work, you gotta you know, call
it audible. And I am Ti Dallas Sience. So I'm
not worried about it. I really do this music shit.
And you know, when people drop the ball, you just
got to pick it up and dunk that motherfucking nigga.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
So when you say people change their minds, like in
terms of like wanting to be on the album or
clearing the verse.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Or you know, it's a whole bunch of different little
shit that had happened, you know, during this last six months,
so you know.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
It's like a song that you that would have been
on the hour or maybe a feature that would have
been on the album if the Albu would dropped six
months ago.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It isn't on anymore exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah. Is that frustrating?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Though? It could get frustrated probably the first two days
and uh really me.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
You know that's when the fingers started pointing on why, well,
what if it was happened this way, then it would
have been done, if we would have just done But
you can't even think like that. You got to just
figure out solution. That's my whole ship.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Do you do?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
You take that shit personal though?
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I've taken personal for the first couple of hours for sure.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, because you're like, wait a minute, what because I
feel like it happens a lot too, like with artists.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Because it's like, I don't help all you niggas. Man.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I didn't like, you know, put money in hell of
people's pockets, and it's like, when it's time to look
out for ty Dolla sign, it'd be like, man, where's
everybody at? But I guess when you look at the
check list, they're like, what nigga, they're here, right? I
got a lot of friends that did show up, So
shout out to those of you that did show up,
(04:15):
and uh, you know, let's keep this shit going.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, I think too. Like, like you said, man, you've
kind of been such an integral part of so many
people's careers quietly, loudly, even like giving people records.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Like Yeah, for you, is it like.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Do you feel like you Cause you know what I
really loved about the Vultures Run was it felt like
you were finally kind of getting like a lot of
the respect and flowers I felt like you deserve for
so long because I always tell people like when it
comes to just pure talent, like I don't know if
there's any Like you're a fucking alien bro, Like you
can play the instruments, you could see, you could write,
(04:53):
you're one of the You're one of them ones for real.
But you know, for you, is it like, dude, do
you feel like you're finally kind of getting and that
the respect and the flowers in terms of like kind
of your contributions and just your talent in general.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I feel like I've been getting in for a while,
but the respect goes in different levels.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
For me, my career has always done this every single year,
So I've been I've been cool with it. Like I've
read where they say underrated this, underrated that. But to me,
it's like, look back at two thousand and ten, toutored
and booted until now and who else from back then
(05:35):
is still doing it at the level.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
All Star was crazy though, exactly, Like that is kind
of wild because it really is just like you and
from from at least from out here. I feel like
obviously the TD guys and YG Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And it's like.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
These days, it seems like it's easier to get it
hit because you got the internet. You know, you got
straight to the fans, you know what I mean. Anybody
can get on DSPs and a lot of people put
out songs and there's a lot of you know, songs
that go up when it seems like there's people that
are not even like real music people, you know what
I mean. Like, but the people that actually last is
a whole different thing. You know, it's easy to get
(06:13):
this ship, but who could keep it?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
What is it's hard to get this ship, it's even
harder to keep it.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah, it's easier to get it, but it's harder to
have the longevity what would you just feel like is like,
you know, the key to your longevity in terms of
just always being relevant for so long.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Just my knowledge on music, my passion for music, and
actually like loving what I do. I feel like that's
the only way you could do something for as long as.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I've done it. You got to have passion as long
as you you've done it. Yo.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
The crazy thing too, is the ten year anniversary to
free CC is coming up.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
The what anniversary?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I think it's been ten years?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Oh okay, I thought you said twenty And for real.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's a ten five. Jesus, ain't that old? Jesus? Can
you walk me through?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
First of all, that album is Crazy Horses is one
of my favorite records of all time.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
That is that was just talking about horses on the
my chat. I've been streaming this ship lately, tied.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I was on Twitch for those of you that don't
know my ship booming but uh and also shout out
to Dreysonatra for.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Helping me, Like, shout out to dre and get it,
you know, rolling this Happy birthday, Happy birth yesterday? Wasn't
it yesterday? Yeah? Yeah, Drey's birthday was yesterday. You forgot
damn well.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
You know what's even crazy if somebody told me, you know,
it's Dre's birthday, and like I had, I had like
fucking eighty things going on at once. That's my actual brother,
so I know he knows. I'm sure he has a
party coming up. I'm definitely.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I'm pretty sure he was at Sam's last night, right,
That is Dson not the type of thing either Sam's
or Hong Kong.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You're gonna be fifty DJ and then the strip club.
He's like that type of DJ.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
But you were talking about horses and you were Drake.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Oh, so this is in a stable.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I got fried for that song at first, like by
all the feminists and a lot of like uncool women,
and uh that's because I was like, you know, referring
to women as a horse. But a lot of people
don't know that my homegirl wrote that song. So shout
out to Tish, you're a fucking genius, and shout out
(08:24):
to those of you that understood the metaphor and didn't
take it personal, because you know, we got to stop
this whole sensitive this whole sensitive thing.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
You know, alcohol into the interview.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
We're bringing alcohol into the interview.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
What is this is this champagne.

a debate like which liquor you wanted to do and

my whole vibe.

haven't been to eleven eleven in Scott's, like.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
You haven't been there?
Speaker 2 (09:38):
I haven't.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Drayson Notchra's been there like fifty times I rased that part. Hey,
we got to stop the interview to tell you about
our good folks. Odd Socks man. Now, these are the
odd Socks Basics, ladies and gentlemen. Now when I tell
you this is a product that every single day I'm
alive for the last five years I have used are
(10:02):
these odd Socks Basics. Now, what odd Socks is doing
is they're kind of reinventing the sock game, if we're
being honest, and the underwear game. You know, a lot
of times you'll hit Walmart, you'll hit Target, you'll get
some socks, you get some draws. They're affordable, they end
up with holes in them. They don't really feel great.
Not odd Socks, ladies and gentlemen. These odd Socks Basics
are the most comfortable socks I've ever had on my feet.
(10:23):
Not only that, but you're super affordable. Fourteen ninety nine
for a six pack. That's it Oddsocks dot Com. And
if you don't believe me, sock check full. Wait, that's
the ex is on the other side. There we go. Ah,
you see that. Sorry, you had to see those white
(10:44):
lakes but it's so dope that you know, I get
to push a product that I use and that I love,
so odd Socks they got the six pack of socks
for fourteen ninety nine at odd socks dot com. The basics,
this is the future of socks, the future of underwear,
comfort and affordability. I'm talking about affordability without jeopardizing the
(11:05):
quality because they are the most comfortable socks you ever
put on your feet. Ladies and gents, uh and the ETCeteras.
Got to show love to the ETCeteras. We like all
the stripes on the flag. There are odd socks dot com.
Man much love to my brothers over there. Make sure
you get some right now, odd socks dot Com. Let's
get back to the interview. But no, like, can you
kind of just like let's talk about the ten year
anniversary of this album because I felt like, you you know,
(11:28):
it kind of accumulates with the Coachella situation because you
had such a powerful moment at Coachella, incorporating your brother,
You had Dre dress like a damn cop.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
It was.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
But it was, you know, it was it was such
a well thought out set and I felt like, you know,
there was a lot of messaging behind it too, But
in terms of even just like this album being called
free TC dedicated to your brother, Like, you know it's
been ten years, man, Like, how is he doing? And
how how cool was it to be able to kind
of bring him to the Coachella.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It is very cool, man.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Was it easy to make happen?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Really?
Speaker 3 (12:06):
It's just like a video from back in the day
that I had him singing and I had my video
guys put it up on the video wall. I added
backgrounds and music to the song that my brother was
already singing, and you know, we really make this music.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
So it was easy for me. It was easy to
get it up there.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
It was kind of harder to perform pull back tears
and shit like damn, I finally could to, you know,
perform with my brother on Coachella.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We figured it out. You know, it ain't a hologram
or nothing but right, but we did it.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Yeah, it was definitely. Yeah, I thought that was that
was special man. This new album, how would you describe it?
Because I feel like each one of your projects has
its own kind of like aesthetic and vibe even sonically. Yeah,
where would you say Tycoon is at?
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's just.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
You know, went up on the sound. I advanced the sound.
I can't never give you guys the same thing that
I did before. But it's still you know what you
it's still banging. You feel me, it's banging. It's it's
it's what you want. It's like everything that you want
with the song, but to the next level, just like
you know, doctor and the sounds not using the same
sounds as anybody else. The bars are up, I'm like,
(13:22):
barn it out. My vocals are up, the backgrounds are back,
the runs are going crazy. Everything is there. If you
want R and B, that's there. If you want the club,
that's there. If you want the the festival, that's there.
If you want if you want something to bathe to
or to get dressed to, that's anything too.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I fucking hate shrooms.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I don't I love them.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Brou I don't know if you ever, I don't. I
don't want to like uh into existence for you. But
you know how you you have that like what do
you call it? The endorphins go off and like you
get the full happiness, right. Yeah, it can also go
the opposite way. So one time I'm I'm on my
(14:06):
radio run for my song motion, which we put out
what last year or right before the Vultures project, This
is what I put out. So two years ago I
put this out and I go on the radio run.
So we started in the Bay and we're going all
the way down California. I do the Bay Ones. It
goes well. I do the Central cow one. What is
(14:29):
that called? Not Fresno, but we're Anderson Pacts from Tura.
I do that, and then I got to go from
there to like Bakersfield or to Fresnoe or something. So
it's like another hour long however, and I do the
shows right before that. Get on this radio show. I'm
funny as hell. I'm going crazy. Everybody's loving it. Get
(14:53):
in the car, look at my phone. And this just
happened to be the day that they called me and
told me Big Why I die? Bro Big from the
Relatives who also signed Cali Swag District, who also just
did a lot for La Rap, you know, and one
of the best Ellie rappers ever and one of the
best Big homies ever. When that happened, Bro, and I
(15:14):
was off shrooms and I'm in the back seat by myself,
nobody to talk to. It's just like maybe never want
to do that shit again. And I'm a firm believer
of weed. That's all we need. But weed is not
for everybody.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
I say that, Yeah, but because like you don't eat weed,
do you?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I don't eat weed. I hate fucking.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Edibles are the devil broy. I think edibles is like
I could I could eat a fucking full eighth of
mushrooms and be okay if I have like.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
You said, I could eat ass and be okay.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
But if I eat if I eat like twenty five
fucking milligrams of edibles, I am twacked.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If I eat one fucking gummy bear of edibles on twig.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
That shit is terrible, And then you can't get rid
of it. You gotta like just you just gotta just
get through. It's yeah, it's bad, it's it's it's it's
interesting too, because I feel like, for you, man, do
you feel like this project is like because this is
your first album with easy Money being like on the
(16:18):
back of it, right, Yeah, do you feel like this
album is like like for you, like it's got to
be like a statement too, because you know, the Vulture
Drone was crazy, it felt like it was forever by
the way, but this is the first project since then.
Like you said, you know, I kind of feel like
the Vultures thing kind of came and like probably just
kind of threw a fork into any of the plans
(16:39):
that you had come in. Is this album a statement?
And was this all new music since Vultures?
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Like, yeah, this is just a I even pulled up
some of the stuff with my hard draw from then
that I didn't use that was still fire. I got
new stuff because you work.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
So much day and you probably get demoitis.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Sometimes I get demoitis, but I'm always down to like
upp a song and you know, experiment with it. So yeah, man,
I almost full of slap after slap after slap.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah. It's funny because I remember I went to your
house one day, by the way, random night, I got
invited to your house to listen. I think it was
the Future inside all this album? Yeah, the Purple One
was that that one? Yeah, this is like a year
before that album actually comes out. And ushers at your house,
which was random as fuck, and me and Usher have
(17:36):
like a thirty minute conversation about how shitty the Game
of Thrones finale was in your kitchen, and I was like,
what the fuck this what is my life right now?
But nonetheless, you played me this album and it sounded
like it was. Not to say that I loved. I
loved what I ended up coming out, but it was
so different, like from what you played me. Yeah, so
(17:56):
like what actually came.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Was like what I played you was, I was making
an album called Tyron at first, it wasn't what I
ended up putting up. I ended up putting off future
entire dollars on because that's just what happened that week.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Is just like Tycoon. If I would have played it
for you six months ago, six months ago, it was
a little different. There was a couple of different songs
that I didn't end up using, just because of the
time that we are in this month. You know what
I mean.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You've had a lot of success with being a CEO, man,
and this is not obviously easy but easy money is
not like your first foray in trying the thing, because
you had the movement. Yeah, and fast forward, now we
got a guy, you know, Leon who is a superstar
in his own right. Yeah, and uh, it's got to
(18:46):
feel good, man, to kind of be able to put
on that hat and just get success, you know. And
and that that's that's I mean, he's such a talented guy. Man.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
But what I've learned from all of this and what
I've learned from anything that you do in life, it's
like shit may take time, but it's only going to
not happen if you stop. Like I don't believe in
that canceled shit either, if like if the only way
you can get canceled is if you stop as well,
you know what I mean, Like you.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Can for sure if you let the noise stop.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
You can't let people just tell you no. You got
to just keep on going and shit, And there will
be a lot of those, There will be a lot
of those that are close to you, which makes it
even crazy. It's like you motherfuckers are supposed to be
with me, you know what I mean, Like the beginning
of my whole career, Like I've been making music since
I was four years old, and I didn't get on
(19:38):
until I was twenty seven. For real, My daughter was
born in five and two, didn't Buddha didn't come out
until two thousand and nine, didn't really like have a
record company behind it until twenty ten, and I still
didn't have a record deal, you know what I mean,
I end up giving that song up for free, but
we definitely got to perform and getting people's faces and and.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
You know, get a name.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So what was it about?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
How it's gonna happen?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I would say, what was it about? Like, uh, you
know that.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
That that whole time everybody's telling me get a job.
You know, music is my mom saying music is a hobby.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Da da da da.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
So it's like fast forward, Yeah, exactly what was it about? Leon?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Though?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That kind of made you want to, like, you know,
kind of be the face of the new venture. And
I mean, obviously he's so talented, man, I mean the
music speaks for itself.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
On was just like the top level music that I
had heard likes to this day from when I first
heard him, Like, no one else is coming and been
as good as Leon.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
And I feel like at that time in the industry world,
everybody was afraid to touch something like that. It's like
all the music that was successful was fruity loose music,
you know what I'm saying. Able to music just like
program like simple shit and when's the last time you
heard somebody come out playing all live shit and get
a real hit. And it was like even after we
(21:02):
made the first album with him, everybody's calling me like, yo, Ty,
you need to give him some club shit. You need
to give him like a real radio smash d D
da DA. And I actually had the conversation with Leon like, Yo,
all right, well we could do this, we could do that.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Let's just fuck around.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
And I end up calling him back the next fifteen
minutes like, bro, I'm tripping. I sound like a real
record company, nigga. These are the people that I've hated
my whole career.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
That Yeah, Like, imagine me calling you saying, hey, we
need to get a club record.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, like, and.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I was like, stick to doing you. I promise you
it's gonna work. I love this shit. I know it's good.
You know it's good. Everybody around us knows it's good.
And the next thing, you know, he gets Mutt and
it works.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
And Mud is one of them, like it is for
people who don't understand. Like on the radio side of things,
there are songs that like won't Die, like is still
in power rotation, It won't go away. It's always in
the top, like it hit number one for so long
and then it just won't. There's so it's crazy the
like shelf life of that record at radio.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Man, the people know, the people can feel it, and
that's all I gotta say. It's like, we know what
real music feels like. We know when a song is good.
We know, and that's why it's lasting.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Were you able to learn anything from, like, you know,
your time with like Taylor Gang in terms of like
maybe taking some stuff from Will and Whiz and applying
it to your own situation, your own imprint.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Yeah, everything I've done from the beginning until now, I
apply it to my.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Own, like just the whole journey.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Shout out to Will, Shout out to Whiz, everybody from
Taylor Gang.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
We're still rocking. I just seen.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
I just came out on Wizard Show the other day.
The main thing I learned from Wiz is, uh, whether
you're the number one by the books artists in the
world or not, you could still be a nice motherfucker.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
You could still be cool to people.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Don't have to be a fucking dick bro and so
many people in this game or fucking assholes. But I
think that's because that's what they think you have to
be in order to you know, to win or to
keep your spot. And like that's the other thing to
keep in your spots. Shit, it's like, what this room
for everybody? If it shits good, bro, it's gonna be
the people who got to fuck with it. But you
(23:16):
can still put people on, Like what good is the
tree that doesn't bear fruit?
Speaker 2 (23:21):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
M M, that's some real shit you already know.
Speaker 2 (23:24):

(24:32):
my life you invited me to Vegas for the Vulture
shit and I ended up being in that fucking viral. Yeah,
you're playing pool and and it's funny because that night
I don't know how.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Much of you I got, how much money I took
from these guys that night listen.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I end up in a sprinter with your daughter Leon
and my boy Ron and we're going to whatever middle
of the desert listening things that ended up being.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Like a ship show by the way, that was like
only tw people in there.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Whatever it was, we didn't getting stuck in the sprinter
and bro Me and Leon Toms.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh, yeah, you guys didn't make it till the right
We were stuck.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Jalen was supposed to come on stage, and Jalen come
on and she just never come.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Bro me and that night because at that time, like
I'd heard of Leon Thomas, but I didn't like nobody
looked like So we started shooting the ship and me
and him like split a bag of mushrooms in the
sprinter and on the way like by the time we're
heading back to the Four Seasons, we're fucking twacked and
we're just like we're just like Ooxcord battling, like trippy.
(25:35):
I'm like playing Tame and Paula. He's playing Pink Floyd.
And then we end up in this room and like
fucking I'm just like, fuck kid cut there. I think
Little Dirk was there. Yeah, it was one of the
crazy It was one of the craziest nights ever. That
was the night the album was supposed to come out.
It was like the night. Yeah, wait, what when you
(25:56):
think of like some of these records that like would
probably never see a lot of the officially, Like I
think about that Back Street Boys record.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah, man, jeez, that's like that one hurts that is
a fucking why because it's like if that would it
came out the Carnival.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Bro oh my god, you had Charlie Wilson on that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
That shit was crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Did you guys know it would be a hard record to
try to get cleared?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
I thought it would be just because of like the situations, you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Know, just because everything all the noise, and yeah, all
the noise because it's on YouTube and like I know,
Motherfuckers was playing that ship like Drake was Drake was
playing that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The crowd goes nuts.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Have you thought about I'm cool with the Backstreet Boys too,
and like AJ's my homie, we work on music, and
do you have the stems to that?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Have you thought about you just putting it out? It's
an idea.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I mean, it's an idea. It could happen.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
It's such a great record, I would.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Say, yeah, did bring that to the table though, So.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's fair. That's fair. By the
time this comes out, your album will already be out.
So I don't think the track list is out there, right.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I think I played a lot of the records on stream.
I had a couple parties when we talk.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
About some of the futures, because I don't know who's
on this album outside of yeah, you know Tori.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
I mean, but like I said, some of the people
that were some of the songs, some of the people
that were on the album last week may be different
this week.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Coming out twenty four hours from now. Yeah you know,
Tory Lane will be on the album.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Toy is on the album. Any song that out officially
is out officially.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
How old is the toy verse? Six seven six seven?
Shout out to that motherfucking shout out the toy man,
and you could do what get a lot done on
the iPhone.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Hey, I don't know about none of that, but all
I'm saying is shout out to the Tory Man.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
I love my brother.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I guess I'm the king of like messing with people
that are canceled or messing with people everyone else gives
up on. But I don't give up on my people.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Man.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
You know, everybody goes through what they go through. We
all make mistakes, we're all humans, And like all you
little judges out there, I can't wait till the day
that you fuck up and everybody's pointing the finger at
your stupid ass.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Then you want to talk about alien. I mean, he's
one of those guys with you that's just a fucking alien. Yeah,
for sure, all time talented guy. And like that album
he dropped, was it last year or this year? Was
it last year? Like that one that he was like
apparently recorded in jail.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Yeah, that shit was hard. It was hard as fuck.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
I mean he's always, you know, when it comes to music,
he's him.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Do you feel like when you when you like because
I feel like there are very few I kind of
talk about this on the MC side a lot when
I talk to like Freddy and like some of these
guys where I'm like, yo, there's only a few Jedies
out there. Yeah, like lyrically, you know what I'm saying.
But I feel like when it comes to like your space,
there's really only a few Jedies. It's like you, it's Chris,
It's Tory damn near, it to Jamie Fox. Motherfuckers who are.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Just Jamie Man. Shout out to Jamie.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
But who else would you consider to kind of be
in that realm of just raw talent when it comes
to just everything.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Of course, I'm a big of Leon. He's really that guy.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Another person that is on the album that I found
out this about super Jedi Chloe Bailey. She fucked me
up when she came through the studio. First of all,
she came solo. She didn't come with a big as squad.
I'm like, all right, she sits down, I'll play the album.
She's like, all right, I like this one. And she
(29:39):
gets up and she asked my engineer for his seat,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
And she works the pro tools and records herself.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
She was engineering herself.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Bro, She's fucking incredible.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
And then fast forward, I'm watching her gram and I'm
watching her make beats and record everything right there on
the ground. So she's another one of us. Sure, shout
out to Chloe.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
I saw you working with Destroy Lonely on the new album. Yeah,
he's a he's a nice guy man. We did an interview.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
I love him, man. I'll just ran into him last
night at the Cardi show.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Oh you went to the Cardis show?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
It was crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Cardi's live shows.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Are fuck crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I said, this man spent so much on them them
so Woofer's man, I couldn't fucking hear my thoughts.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
You know what's crazy is I saw him when he
headline rolling a loud out here earlier this year. There's
just so much fire and like he had these like
he's got them like little white dudes on stage and
look malnourished, but they're fucking a vibe.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah, vibe. This show it was like, yeah, it was
fun rock Hendrick out. Yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Crazy And that was the only thing you could see.
It's like everything else, it was like super fucking dark.
You just saw like Hella flashing and then Kendrick pops
out on the ship.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
I was like, where the fuck is Cardy? I couldn't
see him.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Do you feel like I want to ask you this
because you are somebody?
Speaker 2 (30:55):
But I like that though.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
That was dope for the vibe, Like for just doing
something that no one else.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Is doing, do you feel like because you are? We
talked about it earlier. One of the guys who's been
holding the LA flag down for fucking since, you know,
fifteen years now. I felt like the Kendrick moment happens
with not like Us and obviously GNX and just that
whole from like that all the way up until the
super Bowl. Yeah, and you know, a lot of new
(31:22):
artists get a lot of opportunity on GNX from the City.
How do you feel like do you feel like LA
artists responded correctly when it came to kind of like
doing their part to keep the momentum going, kind of
take that torch from you know, because Kendrick kind of
set it all up.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
You know what I'm saying. Now, everybody's doing this stuff.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Shout out to Kendrick first of all, or putting everybody
in position like he was supposed to. Like I said,
what good is the tree that's not bearing fruit? So
shout out to him for that. The album was Crazy,
his whole you know, he was on my first album Crazy.
He's always been with us, So shout out to Dot
and the whole team.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
As far as everybody else, Yeah, everybody's doing the thing
I'm seeing. Uh, everybody keep on dropping records.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
That's all you could do.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Like to me, this music shit is down there like
Dice shooting Dice and ship.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
You never know.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
But as long as you keep on shooting, staying in
the game, one of the motherfucker's going to hit.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I damn. I feel like Shortline is kind of just
like really been going stupid Jesus bro Like, oh Jeezy
is Shoreline.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Yeah, they've had a year though. Yeah they keep dropping
after it.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, like they moved on from the out they got ship.
They ain't even on the album that they're like it's yeah,
it's it's special.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
They got it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
I think I think we got to like start having
a conversation about those guys in terms of just like
you want to talk about longevity too. They you know,
they're going on eight nine years since that Soundclass ship was.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Going on some ship. It's like, you see how everything
is set up. It's like certain people are gonna get
the full push and uh this some of us that
got to just work extra hard, you know, me being
one of them.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
For sure, especially well they had to leave that building
to get the fool push to be fair, right, Yeah
are you still in that building? Yes you are.

That's still my dream. I've been talking about that forever.
It's just like us all, you know, taking time off
and locking in certain times. We'll get a song off,
we'll get two days together. Da da lah, and you
know then must of to get a call to go
do what he did. I'll get a call to go
do what I did. You know, just it'll be on
(34:57):
what he's on. So we just need to lock in, man.
Right before Vultures, me and Mustard did a whole album together.
We didn't end up dropping it, but some of those
songs were on Vultures. Some of the Stars do It Nah,
(35:17):
we had did that recent We did that like during
the Vultures time, but Stars was.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
On me and Muster's project. There's a couple others way.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
This is just crazy that you're like, yeah, me and
Mustard did a whole album and y'all will only hear
like whatever's already.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
But one of the songs, one of the songs is
on Tycoon Fire and anything that's fired. Man, I just
look at it like like I said, as Dice, you know,
you just gotta throw it at the right time, and
it's timing is everything for real.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
When y'all got Nipsey's Verse on, do It, what was
that process?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Like that was from a song that me and Nipsey
had and basically I just took the vocal and added it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
To the new song. That shit came out crazy, Thank
you man, and.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Long lived Nip. We had to get that song out.
That was like originally a song me, Nip and Cardi B.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
And a word.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Yeah, it was crazy, and uh, you know, I couldn't
just let it sit on the hard drive forever.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Why didn't that Why didn't it come out originally?
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Who knows?
Speaker 3 (36:18):
It's like Nip put out the project that he put
out last you know, Cardi B put out whatever she
put out.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
I put out whatever I put out.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
It's just like certain times that the song just needs
to find a home, and luckily we found a home
for it and it didn't just collect dust on the
hard drive.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
I just saw you throw out the idea because one
of my favorite mixtapes you have is an Airplane Mode.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Yeah, such a good project, thank you brother.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
But I just saw you. I don't know, I don't
know if you reposted something you were like airplane two,
Airplay Mode two.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Yeah, Airplay Mode two. I'm about to drop that right
after Tycoon.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
So that's a thing.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
It's like.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
I've been on this streaming thing and I just playing
hell of songs and people go crazy for him.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I'm like, what the fuck am I doing? Bro?
Speaker 3 (37:06):
I got Airplane Mode two, I got a new sign language.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I got an.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
House that I'm working on. I got a Whoop too
with me and Joe Moses.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
I think sign Language is my favorite state that you
ever put out.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Thank you, that's crazy. Most people will say Beach House.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
I think a Sign Language was just crazy though. I
think that was when Big Sean was on right.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Yeah, yeah everybody, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
But yo, how do you get that ship on DSPs?
Is it even possible? Because I saw like Cushion Orange
Juice ended up on DSPs, Like a lot of these
old mixtapes are starting to pop up. Rick Rick Ross
put out Rich Forever, Like.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
I just got to give my team, right man, That's
all it is.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
Yeah. Do you feel like if you ever could, could
you ever see yourself going independent now that you've kind
of figured out now?
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, yeah, I definitely could. I got another album with Atlantic.
I'm excited about that. That's about to go crazy. There's
a whole new team at Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
I saw that, and uh, you know it's about to
go up. That's all I can say.
Speaker 1 (38:05):
They've kind of resell the whole staff over there. Yeah
you think that's like a good thing.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Yeah, it's a good thing. Bro.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
It's all new young blood in there. It's all hungry people.
Because I still love my old team.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Somebody is your friend. Yeah, I'll be like, Yo, how
is it that fucking You've had so many records to
me that should have been.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
Like yeah, And I'm like, what the fuck's.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Like Atlantic Records if it ain't already fucking like set
on fire in the fucking middle of the alley, like
and they could, they could come through a poor gas
on it.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
It's like, you know, it's it's like it was a
sad day, like seeing the people that you work with forever.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah, shout out to all the homies over there, like
you know, Dwight and a lot of a lot of
the homies who unfortunately lost you.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Know, Yeah, shout out to all of them. And I
love you guys. But it's just like how business works
and how life works. You know, when the news shit comes,
are you going to just keep on being sad and
ship or are you going to adapt?
Speaker 1 (38:58):
You got to adapt.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
We gotta adapt.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
We got to accept the new and we got to
pick up the new people, you know, like I said,
a new team, young, hungry, and uh, it's about to
go up.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
What is uh the one record of yours that ended up?
It could be a hook you did. It could be
one of your own records that you just hated but
it just cracked.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
Uh two didn't put it. When I first did it,
I thought it was like what the fuck? But that
happened to be the first record that put me.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
On, changed changed all y'all's lives.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Yeah, for real.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
For Hot Girl Summer is kind of like, uh, you
know what I mean, Like it was one of those
like what the fuck that ship went dummy?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Oh it went dummy? It did for that year. Oh yeah,
God the fact that I don't think we're ever getting
here Megan Nikki on a record together again. So and
it was a moment because I mean that was like
Hot Girl Summer.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Was a thing, yeah for sure.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Yeah, but you didn't love it, nah, not for real
like when you cut it.
Speaker 3 (40:02):
Nah, And I don't like love it to this day
like that, But like there's people that love it, and
I'll performance for the ladies for sure.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
You know one do you still like because I do
feel like there's like an era of your career where
you were just like kind of giving out so many
big records. Yeah, what's that? What's that like thought process
like for you now where you really don't need like
you are you being a lot more selfish with with
with joints? Are you still collaborating?
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Like I just love making music, so you know, I'm
down to still collaborate, but I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Man.
Speaker 3 (40:36):
After this album, after folds, it's like I'm starting to
hate collaborating. Yeah, you know what I mean, I'm starting
to fucking hate it cause it's like shit just gets
weird for sure.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
Yeah, it's almost like when there's so many moving parts,
so it's like you can have a relationship with somebody,
but then there's the label.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
The teams do all of this shit myself, man, Like
I really don't need nobody.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
I never did, so let's not get that fucked up
for sure.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah. The last time we did an interview, I was like, yeah,
I would love to see you work with the Alchemist.
You ended up being on the Alchemist Larry June album.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
But that's a lie because like I said earlier, this
whole music, it's like a band. It's like it's a team.
It's always a team, you know. So in general, Yeah,
but I can't do everything myself. I do know how
to do everybody's job.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
But you was I was saying, you ended up working
with Alchemists.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
Oh yeah, And I just ran into Alchemists at him
and Hip Boys party up in New York. And I've
been telling Alchemists I want to do a whole project
with him and like really like tap into that sound
that was like my original tian Corey sound. Right, That's
where I come from. And I feel like me and
Alchemists make a whole project. It'll be crazy. I also
(41:50):
want to make more of a mad live. We'll see
what happens, man.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
But don't you and Freddie got a lot of unreleased
stuff from the Vultures era.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
Yeah, we got we got crazy shit, and then after
the Vultures there we got in the studio and we
made some crazy shit as well.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
So I feel like you and Freddy could do a
little pack, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, it's still
one of my favorite verses in the last few years.
The shit he had that was I think that was
the whole Colders versus the.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
Year come to easy Money, Freddie, Let's go, Hey, even
a one off? Yeah, let's go?

Damn Uh.
Speaker 3 (43:21):
This dude named r J the Widows Crazy Stage from Texas.
He's like this rapper but he also dances and he
just got bangers. He got crazy bars. Keith Turner, He's
a DJ, makes beats and all that shit. He's hard.
Wm on leaving out.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
You said four, there's three. You're just letting name.
Speaker 3 (43:43):
Uh oh, what the fuck? Busy Busy Crook from my Miami.
That Nigga's incredible aunt.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
He's been around. He helped Leon ride on Mutt and Uh.
Speaker 3 (43:56):
He's just incredible with the songwriting and his songs and
I believe in him.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
He did a record like, uh probably twenty fourteen. There's
like a letter to Kanye for real. Yeah, it was tight.
It was like blog air ended the blog aeric.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
Kind of, but it was I never even heard that
joint you.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Like kind of. It was like a dedication song to
Kanye kind from what I recall, Busy's busy's been tough though,
for sure.
Speaker 2 (44:18):
Hell yeah, hell yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
So yeah, so you're gonna be busy. So I guess
you're going to be busy. I mean, like, how do
you fucking like compartmentalize, man, when it comes to like
doing the CEO shit.
Speaker 3 (44:29):
Well, when it comes to the artists, first of all,
I'm not really fucking with nobody like you, Like you
uh brought up the fact that I had all these
other different situations, my other labels, my other you know, adventures,
So I've gone through a lot of child and error.
And when it comes to that, I'm only fucking with
easy lifters, meaning like people that got this ship.
Speaker 2 (44:52):
Together kind of like self managed. Yeahbyit exactly. So that's
how I compartmentalized the record company shit. And then and
I do my artistry shit. Every day.
Speaker 3 (45:02):
I try to get at least for three to four
songs a day on a bad day, seven to nine
to eleven on a good day. When I just did
this airplane mode too, I did it all in one day,
eleven songs, and I added like the other a few
songs the next day.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
So you'll go in general, your general rule is three
to four songs a day you're making.
Speaker 3 (45:23):
Yeah, that's like how I treated as a job, you
know what I'm saying. And that could be feature, it
could be my own song, but I'm at least gonna
get four in. And then now I've been back on
the beats. I wasn't making beats for a long time.
I was talking about this earlier on Power Basically when
(45:43):
Chakaso got killed, I feel like that fucked me up,
and probably my way of grieving was I didn't touch
the NPC no more, where I used to just do
fifteen beats a day, you know what I mean. And
then now YG came to me like right before I
did this Hollywood joint and it was like, I want
you to produce my album, bro, Like I already.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Know you're gonna kill it.
Speaker 3 (46:06):
So that's when I just started going in and trying
to find something that everybody wasn't doing, and we'll work
for the West right now, and like, how can we
make this shit fun again? And I came up with
that beat for Hollywood, and I've been cooking some other
shit for his album, so we bot.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
I didn't even know you did that beat. Yeah, Bro,
the son is crazy?
Speaker 2 (46:26):
Oh yeah. And Homie damn. James added to it as well,
So shout out to.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
Him when you hear that hook on there when you
first hear it, drink.
Speaker 3 (46:34):
So look, man, when I first made the beat, even
before James added to it, the vocal part that I
kept on hearing in my head was like some wrapping
fote oh type flow.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
I can hear that.
Speaker 2 (46:47):
So I'm like, who sounds like that? Today? Oh?
Speaker 3 (46:50):
Geez called him to the studio and was like, Yo,
let's do this for YG. So he did his part.
Then I called YG. YG did his part. Next thing
you know I'm getting. I was like, oh, Shoreline trying
to put this out on their album and they're performing
