Speaker 1 (00:49):
Shit man working?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
You just put a new song out, was it last week?

Speaker 1 (00:53):
H Yeah? Yeah I did.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah. It is a very vintage Dave Blunts. If you will, oh.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Yeah, that's the best way to describe it's a very
Dave Once song. You hear it, you're like, yeah, this
is something that Dave Once will make only him.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
I gotta ask you, like, because you're known for a
lot of your outlandish lyrics, Yeah, has there been something
you've ever regretted saying on a record?

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
What would that be?

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Shit? Hey man, the viewers can fucking people watching this
now they can they can use their imagination or a
little bit of context clues to pick up on what
that may or may not be. Yeah, I've regretted a
few things that I've said before.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Anything like just because you might have like just hurt
someone's feelings, you didn't because I don't feel like for
people who I feel like you don't have that intent.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
You're being like, No, I never have the intent to
hurt anybody's feelings. And sometimes it'll come from a place
of I don't necessarily think like, oh this will be funny.
I'm just you know, really just making music. I wish
that there was a more, like, you know, in depth
reason as to why I say the things I say.

(02:05):
But shit, I can't tell you really. There's some there's
it's it's a mix of things. Sometimes it depends on
what it is. I say. It's either something I feel
strongly or something that you know, in the moment, I'm
just fucking around. Sometimes I'll go in there drunk and
say some shit.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
So, yeah, do you feel like the gays have an
issue with you specifically, because you know, listen, in the nineties,
the F word was my shit. It's a great word
in the nineties to call your friends. Yeah, not to
call like a gay person. I'd be like, yo, stop
being a pass me the controller, you know whatever. Obviously,

(02:48):
how did the gays feel about Dave Blunt's music?

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Oh, the gays love Dave bluntz music.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
They do.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
I have a lot of gay transgender.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
I feel like the baked in there. You've showed them
some love.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, yeah, last time I was here. Yeah, I love
all women, including trends women. Yeah, and I'm back here
a year later, nigga, And I'm doubling down on that
stand Hell yeah, hell yeah, I'm doubling down on that.
But yeah, man, I don't. I mean, look, they they
know that I am not coming from a place of
hate or a place of being discriminated, discriminating towards people,

(03:22):
And it's like shit, the way that I see it.
If you listen to my music, everybody gets it, and
I feel it's like for me to leave them out
that will be discriminating.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Right, Yeah, Yeah, I feel like I feel like it's
it's just like it's like if you're listening to your
ship and you're like taking it like he's obviously being
like funny.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
You know, and like you know, like you said, it's
being funny, it's not always out of a place of comedy.
Sometimes it's just very rash and very blunts. You know.
I go in there, Dave blunts, you know what I'm saying.
So it's like, you know, I was just having this
conversation the other day. I think it was when I
was working king with uh with ya. He was just

(04:03):
telling me like, oh, like there's not a whole lot
of double on tandres with you like this is what
it means, Yes, this is what it means, and it's
like yeah, And then you know, the other day there
was somebody, uh you know, because like I be streaming
and ship. Yeah, so I was, you know, making some
songs on live and somebody was like, damn, would it
hurt you to put in a double entendre. I'm like, why,

(04:24):
Like what's the point? Like I can do that, I've
done it before, but it's like, why not just say it?
You know what I'm saying, because it's like, you know,
it'll be artists and I'm not gonna necessarily say any names,
but they'll be like the things that me and my
girl go through are sometimes physical and mental. It's like, nigga,
just say that you beat your bitch, you know what.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
I'm saying, Like, you go through physic with your girl.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Yeah, it's like, just say that. That's what you're saying
without saying it. Why not just say it to me?
That's kind of just like, I mean, I guess you're
like finessing that you're trying to be coy about it.
But with me, it's just like I'm just say that, shit, Hey, you.

good place right now? Mentally?

Speaker 1 (06:38):
I don't think I've ever been in like a great
place mentally, but.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Well, how shit I might. I mean, I feel like
I feel like you gotta glow to you right now.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
I mean, shit, bro, I'm sit. They got been going
for a couple of years now, but shit, Oh.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
I mean, how are you? Like is everything good? Like
I obviously I've seen you trying to, you know, get
back in the gym, And how's your health going.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
Uh, it's just it's going better than it better than
it once was, which is kind of very vague, but
that should be having like it's like a roller coaster,
you know. So the health journey is kind of like, Uh,
I'll be having my days where I'm motivated and then
i have days where I'm not, but you know, just
still getting back, uh, you know, as many times as

(07:20):
a fault, just getting back up again.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
You know, that's important trying to always do better, you know,
if you can, even if you have a rough week
or a rough month or a day or whatever. So
you're one of the guys who has like done a
pretty good job of like getting on the other side
of a fifty cent conflict unscathed. Some might even say
you might have got the better side of fifty. Fifty

(07:43):
is one of the most pettiest guys of all time. Yeah,
when you like engage with fifty, are you worried about Okay,
cause he's notoriously known to kind of be like the
king of the troll, the king of the Internet, if
you will.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Yeah, I've also known to be that, but outside of
the Internet, you know what I'm saying, because I'm new
Year still, so it's like I've been doing this shit
he's doing online in my real life, you know what
I'm saying, if not even worse, you know what I'm saying.
So it's like that shit didn't phaze me at all,
you know what I'm saying. But I do kind of

(08:17):
say like the only reason that I had said something
was because he had said something about you know yay,
And that's when me and him were working together, and
you know, me and Yea, it wasn't really just like
a just like a work you know, like weren't just
working together. We were friends and you know, really really

(08:38):
good friends. So you know, we were talking on the
phone and I think fifty I came out and said
something about him and his wife, and then he was
just like, man, I just don't really know what to
do when it comes to this shit. Like I got
a lot of shit going on, and you know he
was fucking with Fifty at the time, right, So so
I was just I was like, hey, don't say nothing,

(08:59):
because I know that he's not gonna stop if you
respond to him. And I don't know necessarily because the
mental state you're in right now if you can handle that.
But me, I'm with all the bullshit all the time off,
so I'm like, I don't even worry. I'll say something
and so, yeah, you're a good friend. Yeah, So I
just I said something. I think what did I say?

(09:20):
I think the first one was kind of like just
a little little jab. I was like, well, you're talking
about his wife when you know your big mama allegedly
got pissed on by Diddy. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yeah, I mean, we saw the documentary. I don't know
how much alleged exactly exactly.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
So I said that, and then, like I don't know,
maybe like a month and a half went by and
I wake up one day and he posted me on
his page saying something about pushing me down the stairs,
and then there's another picture like a panda rolling down
the hill referring to me. So I was like, yeah,
I'm just gonna do drop a record. Yeah, like what
I've been doing. Whenever somebody disrespects me, you know, says

(09:56):
something about me, It's like, Okay, even though I started
it first, I'm not just gonna cower down because he
said something like all right, nigga, you want to do
this trolling shit? I controlled too.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
What was kind of the like you had mentioned a
little bit earlier, Yaya was in a certain mental state.
It seems like he's trying to get on track again
in terms of like in getting into good graces, and
you know, you apologize with a lot of people. What
was kind of the genesis of you guys, I guess
splitting in terms of your friendship.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
That shit just got too much for me to handle. Bro,
You know what I'm saying, you know, working with him
in the beginning was already pretty pretty crazy, but yeah,
it just got too much to handle. There was just
a lot of obviously the records we were making were
pretty pretty controversial and pretty you know, it just got
to a dark place.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
You know, Yeah, some of the records were very controversial.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
Controversially, you know what I'm saying. And at the end
of the day, it was just like it got to
a place to where, you know, it's just I couldn't
keep I couldn't keep making excuses to myself as to
why I'm still doing.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
This, like maybe like like why why you would step
out of your character for the sake of something?

Speaker 1 (11:11):
It gets exactly that, and then it gets to a
point to where, you know, and then a lot of
people always asking me, well, why did you why did
you make those songs? Why did you do it? You
know what I'm saying. You know, He's coming to me
and telling me at the time, like these songs are
breathing life into him. You know what I'm saying, It's
it's whatever he was going through at the time, that
was giving a voice to his his anger, his frustrations,

(11:34):
and you know, he was talking about times about wanting
to take his life and these are the only things
that are keeping him not wanting to do that. And
so I'm like, I think I'm doing like a good thing,
you know what I'm saying, Like shit, he's saying that
this is making him not want to take his life.
Like all right, let's keep on making any songs. How
much damage could it really be doing? Until I realize, yeah,

(11:56):
this is doing pretty much. There's a lot of damage.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
So, like, for people who don't know you, you were
a part of the Cousin song, Yeah, the World War
three and was it? Is it the Hall Hitler song?

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:09):
What listen. Obviously you've I think made your piece and
said like, hey, I don't feel this way like I'm
except you know, I'm I don't want to be aligned
with that kind of ship.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Never did it, Never did. It was really based off
of what he uh, you know, he was telling me
to make the album, based off of his tweets and
the stories that he would tell me. So that's what
I was doing.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
When he tells you that Cousin thing, are you like,
are you sure you want this out there?

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Like, yeah, it took me a while to make that song.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
It took me a while because that's a pretty vulnerable thing.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Told me. I was like, so you want to make
a song about this? He's like no, And then then
he comes back to me later and says, yes, knew
the song, and I kept putting it off. I'm like, uh, well,
I don't know if I could do that, but here's
this other song.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Yeah, try this one.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
You try this one here, and then uh, you know,
finally he was just like, look I really need this.
I'm like, alright, fuck it.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
So yeah, I mean the ham Hitler song is the
one that I mean that just caused the whole ster
in Miami when they played it in the club.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah. Yeah, that'sh It's that's just pretty crazy.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
It's such a crazy instrumental.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
It's anti CZ.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
What about for you? Like, because Yay was trying to
get you with his trainer and ship right, like was
he like? I mean, you guys had a genuine friendship.
Is there is there something there to be repaired? You
think now that you kind of feel like you might
be in a better place mental I.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Mean, shit, bro, you know I don't really hold grudges
like that. I try not to, but I mean shit,
I just kind of feel like he's on his own path.
I'm on my path. You know what I'm saying, Like, Bro,
I've you Like. The thing is, I never want to
be like a nigga like digital nas like a serial
dick rider, right, you know what I'm saying, Like he

(13:59):
only as like success from working with you, you know
what I'm saying. And he's like just like he's like
an he's like a runt dog, like that's getting like
just sucking on the teeth of Kanye. I never want
to be that type of nigga to anybody, let alone
you know, somebody who I looked up to. You know
what I'm saying. And I'm only saying that because he
came out and said something about me and I don't

(14:20):
even really know the nigga, but uh yeah, I never
want to like for people to say that like I'm
using him, or that like him, that I need him
or he made me, which is not the case. You know,
I had already signed a deal a year before I
met Ye, already bought my mom a car, took care
of families, all that shit before I met him, So

(14:40):
so like for people, So you know, I just don't
want people to have that envision of that I'm using
him or that I you know, anything like that. So yeah,
it's just I want to pave my own lane, you know,
which is what I was doing before. If anything, that
shit kind of just like, uh yeah, I would say.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
You're probably I mean you in that world then, and
you're like all right, well fuck, I'm with the most influential.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Artist, yeah you know, and uh so yeah, I really
just want to pave my own way, you know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Do you feel like at that time he truly believed
the ship that like he was saying, or was it
because I feel like so much of what Yay does
the messaging is so fucked up, and he also understands
the power of like shocking off. That makes sense.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Well, I definitely don't want to speak for the nigga
because I don't truly know, but if I was to
take somewhat of an estimated guess or some shit, I mean,
he was manic at the time, you know what I'm saying,
and uh shit, so was I you know what I mean.
So it's like you take two manic people who he
says controversial things, I say controversial things. That shit's just

(15:50):
bound to fucking crazy. Yeah, so you know what I'm saying.
But you know, I like, yeah, it's just we were
both very manic at the time.

Speaker 2 (16:02):
And do you feel like you being behind those records
has negatively affected any of your opportunities behind the scenes
at all.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Well, that's a great question, and I'm gonna answer that
the way that, like I've always answered that question is
if nobody wants to work with me based off the
things that I say, then I don't want to work
with them, you know what I'm saying, Because I know
I don't have any sort of evil intent and whatever
is meant for me is gonna happen no matter what.
So yeah, you know, I've already apologized the things that

(16:34):
I did, and it was from a sincere place, you know,
and my fans and people who really rock with me
know that, Yeah, I'm not I'm not an evil person
or whatever. You know what I'm saying. So yeah, once again, sorry,
And yeah, man, I just think that if nobody wants
to work with me based off the things that I'm

(16:55):
gonna say, I've always been in the place of you know,
before I even came in the end, I knew like
the music that I make is pretty crazy, and the
path that I'm taking is going to be harder, but
in the end it's going to be better because that
means I didn't dick suck my way to the top.
I didn't dick ride anybody. I did it my own
way and I paved my own lane. That's what I

(17:17):
want to do. I don't want to be just a
fucking I don't want to name any names right now,
but I don't want to be just the type of
artist that just like you know, they just do everything
by the numbers. You know what I'm saying, risk freshman album,
sophomore album, all that don't take any sort of risk,
and they're just like a working artist. I don't want
to be a working artist. I want to be somebody

(17:38):
great who paved the lane. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Do you I feel like you're somebody who I can
see like eventually like getting into like writing a movie
or writing a sitcom or some shit like building out
your universe a little bit more visually. Is that something
that you would ever do?

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Uh? Yeah, But I'm taking the baby steps and doing that,
you know what I'm saying, Because you know, film is
something that I really appreciate for sure. You know, I
love movie and I watched documentaries and how movies are made.
I watched the fucking DVD commentaries with the movie.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
DVD commentary was a vibe a hell yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Hell yeah, I've seen hell of DVD commentaries. But you know,
so when it comes to film, I definitely want to
do something like you know, writing and directing and shit
like that. But I'm taking the baby steps and really
put it in the the hours that it takes to
be great at that. So I'm starting off with like
my music, my music videos and just making them just

(18:30):
like very cinematic, you know, my past. I want to
say two videos that I've shot I've been like really
fucking cinematic, like you know, the fifty cent disc video
that shit. I put a lot of time and effort
into just that video. You know, that was like a
three day shoot and each day was like eight hours.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Was that the longest video that you've had?

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Yeah, that definitely was. Yeah. And then the one after that,
I was fucking for a song I had called Bigger
where I was like Godzilla and shit, that was like
I think a two days shoot as well.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah, the fifty one you like recreated in the club Ship.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was was a couple of his
videos that I recreated in that one, and then I
just I just shot one that I haven't released yet,
but it's pretty much. The video is like my interpretation
of mister and missus Smith Fire, like if it was Niggas.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
By the way, great show and movie. It was a
little series. They did a series too.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
They did. I've seen the series. It was. It was
not the movie was Fire though, yeah, the movie, But
in this video. You know, in the movie, you know,
there are two assassins who get a sign to kill
each other and they just so happen to be married, right,
you know what I'm saying. But in this one, you know,
the one, my interpretation of it in my music video
is my girl comes home, catches me with some other
girls and she tries to you know, she ups the

(19:47):
gun on me and up a gun on her and
then we get into like a shootout and yeah, it's
it's really good. It's really good.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
We gotta get a shout out to our new sponsor,
Raffi log Group. Listen, I don't partner with just anybody,
and if you're from Aira's all my az people who
are watching y'all know, call Raffi. Raffi Raffie Law Group.
They treat you like family, which is why I decided
to partner with them. Man, it only makes sense. The
best law group in AZ. They've helped over seventy thousand

(20:16):
folks in Arizona and listen, it's pretty easy. Whatever happens,
car accidents, car crashes, injuries, whatever, they handle it. My
wife actually got into an accident, this was like five
or six years ago. They handled her case, she got
paid out. It was super painless, it was super seamless.
The team was incredible. And when I tell you, man,

(20:37):
it's like a real family atmosphere over there. This is
not like just some random billboard lawyer, some bus stop lawyer. No,
it's a real team, all right. So make sure you
go support Raffie Law Group. And don't forget you get
into an accident, any sort of personal injury, car crash, whatever,
make sure you call RAFFI right now. Six two three
three eight eight forty three thirty three. That's six three

(20:58):
three eight eight four three three three called Raffie. You
went a little viral the last time you were here
because you said that you were going to CrowdSurf.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yes, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
After that though, you did have a very successful like
show run, like you were in I saw some footage
of you when you were in Arizona, Like what was
hitting the road like for the first time, like headlining
like in that way? What was that? I had to
feel good.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
It felt it felt great like the shows, but I
was just very sick at the time and I needed
to go to the hospital and I knew I needed to,
but I'm like, let me tough it out to the
end of the tour. But I couldn't. I couldn't. I
didn't wasn't able to finish the tour, which is unfortunate
because the whole thing was sold out. The whole tour
was sold out, so I think it was a total

(21:44):
of fifteen shows. I think I got through like seven
before I had to cancel, which is very unfortunate, and
that shit like really distraught me. I didn't even cancel
it to like the I was in the hospital, still
saying I'm gonna get out of here and finish it,
but they was like, man, you don't have to stay
here for a couple of weeks. I'm like, fuck, So
that shit, like really hurt me that I had to

(22:05):
cancel the tour.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Do you feel like you'll ever be able to do
like a long tour and with with without kind of
getting your health kind of super realed in.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Well, well, the plan is to get my health super
realed in so that way I can do yeah things,
you know what I'm saying. So I think I owe
it to myself and the fans to do that. You
know what I'm saying, because you know, anything that I do,
I release music or post a picture, they're always like, bro,
you got to go on another tour. You know, you
got to go another tour. And I'm just like, man,

(22:37):
I want to, but I gotta.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
I never want to be you don't want to do
that again? Yeah, where I.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Cancel that shit? You know what I'm saying. So, yeah,
I just really just got to get my health right.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
Have you thought about, not even to be funny, have
you thought about doing ozempic.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
I've thought about a lot of things.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Because I know, like fat Jo did ozepic and they say, like,
obviously there's side effects of ozepic, but a lot of
people are like, yo, if you're like a certain weight,
like it's a lot. The risk of taking oz empic
is a lot less higher than if you are you know, unhealthy,
you know what I mean. But I don't know. It's
supposed to sup pressure. I know some people on oz empic,

(23:12):
A lot of people losing weight.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Man, Hell yeah, so I've heard.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Yeah, there's a lot of You saw Jelly Row.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
Yeah, that was a crazy transformation.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
He looks like a new guy. My guy looks like
he year and a half lost like two hundred pounds
or something like that. That's crazy for you is like this,
like what what is your Like how often are you
in the studio because I feel like you're in the
studio a lot, Like are you are you always kind
of in like creative mode or do you kind of

(23:40):
set aside? Like all right, this weekend, I got to
get in and knock out a certain amount of songs.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Uh, That's how I was went last year, you know,
every year before this year. But I you know, just
like when I had to go to the hospital and
all that, like I prioritized my career over my health.
Like I wasn't doing anything for myself. I was doing
all this shit for fans, people, me, family, and I

(24:07):
was focusing on those things instead of myself. So it
was like I'd go to the studio and be in
there for like nine hours, not come go in sundown,
not come until the sun is up, you know what
I'm saying, and then go to sleep for a couple
of hours, wake up, and then do that whole shit
all over again. So I really just had to realize

(24:28):
that I don't need to do that all the time,
you know what I'm saying. I don't need to go
in the studio and make nine songs. If I go
in the studio, I'm in there for four hours and
I come out with one or two really great songs.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
Yes, it's almost like that, put more into each song
to make each song better exactly.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah. So that's what I've been doing. And I've also
been working on like producing and shit, like making beats,
so for other artists, uh yeah, and for other artists
and myself. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
I mean I feel like if you make beats for yourself,
it's the smartest thing to do, yeah, because then ain't
got to worry about splits. Yeah, I feel like that's
the hardest thing is especially you're independent like you Okay, Fuck,
I got a record, I love it, and then the
producer can always try to hit you upside the head
and you're like.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Hell yeah, hell yeah. So that's why I usually, uh,
you know, working lock in with like one or two
producers when I'm working on my albums. Right now, I've
been working with this producer. He's from Belgium.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
His name is Victor, really real, Victor from Belgium.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, Victor, Yeah, Victor, good kid, good kid. So yeah,
we've been Me and him, have been making beats together of.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Him over the internet.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, I I met him at one of those pitch
sessions in last Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, we've been locked
in since like like June July, and my album I've
been working on it since then, and I finally just
got it to the place to where I know what
I want the sound to be like. I went through

(25:53):
a bunch of different phases on what I want the
sound to be like, but I finally got it, like
locked in and I'm working on it.

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Is a necessry youre going to be on the albums.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, you see, And that's kind of like you know,
that beat. It's kind of like a mixture of it's
a mixture of a couple of different genres it's a
mixture of like jerk music. You know, jerk music is obviously, yeah, okay,
hell yeah, so jerk coast jerk music.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
You're talking about the time of music. You jerk off
too with your friends. No, no, no, not that everybody's
herouded by the computer and like we all jerk off
to the same point of video.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
No, that's not not that jerk not that jerk music.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Now West Coast dance jerk music, yes, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
A mixture of jerk music, a mixture of rage, yeah,
and I call it jerk rage rage.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
Yeah, jerk I used to call it too.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Yeah, and then also like a mixture of like like
twenty ten party music like LMFAO and shit.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
So if you hear that song Unnecessary, you hear that beat,
it's kind of similar. It's like a mixture of those
three things. I call it jerk rage.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
Bro Jerk rage is its own sub genre now, yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Yeah, I created it. So if you hear niggas with
that sound, you hear niggas saying jerk rage. It was
for me.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
What like, you obviously have to have a lot of
inspiration outside of hip hop. What were like, were you
into like what rock bands were you listening to?

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Well, I was listening to a lot of like alternative rock,
you know, from like the early two thousands, Like I
love Green Day, I love Coldplay, I love Lincoln Park
of course. Yeah, like like that. Those those are my three.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Cold Play got some ship?

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Oh yeah, Coldplay does hell.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Their production is fucking crazy.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Their videos and fire to the videos is just one guy.
It's just the v guy VA whatever. That's my that's
that brother.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yeah. I feel like growing up in Iowa, there's no
way to avoid getting into those bands.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
In something now, there's there's no way to avoid it.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
Yeah, did you ever like walk down to like the
shitty rock band road like where you were like, oh,
you know, uh, Kryptonite is not too bad. But three
Doors Down or Nickelback's got some ship.

I just you know, when it comes to my albums,
I just I like to it's me telling my story.
It's my life at the time, So I don't think that,
you know, It's just like I don't think anybody could
tell my story the way I can, or just like
just for the sake of like, oh, it would be

(30:22):
good if I had this person on my album, like
you know, like if there's a way to do that,
like to make music with them and release it, it
would just have to be not a part of my album.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
That makes sense, Like a one off a single word
on there.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
Something like that. Yeah, I'd be down for that. But
as far as my albums, I like to keep it myself.
Like I said, I really just want to build my
own shit up. Never want anybody to be able to
say that they made me or be able to be
indebted to somebody for some shit.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
So fuck all that. What is your because you are you?
Obviously you've you spend your love for movies and do
a lot of your album covers and stuff. What is
like your Mount Rushmore of film?

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Okay, so Mount rush warrant film, I got you right
here and Mount Rushmore is how many people on there?
Let's just so, first I got to play pine Apple.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Express, ok this is a great film on all timer
all theimer Alzheimer.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
Number two has to be uh, Django.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
So good.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
I love Django. That ship's fucking amazing. Wolf of Wall
Street for sure.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Made me want to do k lots Yeah hell yeah,
it was like where can we get kul yeah Cosby.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Yeah, yeah ship. Uh It's okay. So then number four
would have to be uh man, I don't know. I
just love a lot of movies. It's hard to like
put them in the top five. List, but you give
me a say. Okay, so we put Django and then.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
You had that Pineapple Express for Wall Street Shango all
three great.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Man. I gotta put Inception in there.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
Oh yeah, Inception to Leo movies in there, Leon Leonardo,
three le movies, he's in, He's in, Jengo.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
DiCaprio, Hell yeah, yeah, him and Djengo.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
That ship's good, bro, he's hell yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Soul to the Man with the exceptional beard and the
unexceptional nigga. Oh it's a number four. Probably got to
put a two thousand and nine Star Trek.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
Good movie, good movie.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
You know what's crazy is the new Star Trek movies.
They don't get talked about it enough.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
They don't. They're really fucking fucking gas seen each of
them in theaters when.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
They And honestly, I'm not a Star Trek fan, but
those movies me either.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
I'm moving to that ship. But that ship is good.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
They got the dude from Heroes in there.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Hell yeah, helly, Zachary Quinto.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
Yeah. Great Heroes was hard. I don't know if you
ever wear.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
I never got into it. I never got into it.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
It was so good, and then the writers strike happened
like the old school writers strike, and then it just
was yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Let me take exception off there. Number no, so we're
at number four. Number four would probably have to be
the first Deadpool movie. First Deadpool and then number five
Captain America Civil War.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
You take, so those are your two top Marvel movies.
Then in jail, well, I guess those are those are like, well,
you can't put the first Deadpool into MCU, even though
it's a Marvel comic. It's it's not a but but
so soon you put Civil War over any other MCU movie.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Man, I feel like it's one of the best ones.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Yeah, yeah, I'm a I don't know, dude. I think
Guardians at the Galaxy three.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
That one was great. It was great that she made
me satisfy. Yeah, and the whole movie.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
It was the only movie that I could really think
of them where they weren't trying to save the world.
They were just trying to save their friends.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Man. I like Guardians of the Galaxy three. But there's
something that James Gunn does in his movies that like
is almost like a cheet code. You funk with James.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
Gunn, of course I got to beat him. He did. Yeah, Yeah,
I met him in yeah deal. Yeah, dude, that's crazy.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
No, but he does this thing in his movies is
that he always like like he knows that people love animals,
so he some plot in the movie where there's an
animal and then like the animal gets hurt.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
Because he did that in Superman.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
Yeah, he did do it in Superman.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah, and he did it in Peacemaker with the Eagle.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Exactly, exactly exactly.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
So yeah, so I went to, uh, this past comic
Con was in the middle of Johnson. I'm a big
wrestling fan, so it was in the middle Johnson seen
his retirement run. But I went out there to go
to comic Con and they're like, yo, Sena is hosting
like a Rivot release thing for Peacemaker season two. So
you go in and uh, like it was very very

(35:12):
like probably like five hundred people in there, but James
Gunn was just kicking it like up on the balcony.
I was with my boy sort of strickling his wrestler.
So yeah, it was dude, it was cool as fuck.
And then do you do you know the band Steel Panther. No, okay, listen,
So Steel Panther is the guys to do all the
songs in season two, the really offensive song. Listen, dude,

(35:34):
We're gonna have a moment because they are the Steel
Panther is the Dave Blunts of eighties rock. So they
were a cover band and then they started doing their
own music and it's all crazy music. This song is
called Gloryhole. Oh shit, it's about getting your d We

(35:58):
just gotta let them. This is a slap.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Yes, bro, these fools are on repub I didn't know this.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
They're on Universal Republic.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
There, that's a major, lady.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
They'm on Drake at the same label.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
That's crazy. But no, I'm actually glad that you played
that because it is very David once, like you said.
And then also it's like, man, it's like, uh, you know,
all I need is proof of concept, you know what
I'm saying. All I need to know is that it
happened at one point in time for me to be
able to, you know, know that what I'm doing is

(36:30):
the correct path, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
I feel like we kind of saw it in the night.
I mean, I'm older than you, but like you know,
there's like eminem and like icp insane clown posy had
some crazy lyrics about other shit, but like then, I
don't do you know who Brother Lynch is? No, oh, man,
there's a guy from Sacramento. His name's Brother Lynch Hung. Now,
you guys have different subject matter, but he was. He's

(36:58):
a legend. Brother Lynch Hung had an entire album rapping
about being a cannibal and eating babies.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Damn, that's pretty crazy.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
And this and this album is gold.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Damn.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
This motherfucker was going gold independently in like nineteen ninety five.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
Damn. Yeah, well that was a different time back then.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
But it was. It was called horror core rap, which
is not what you do. But yeah, bro, it's crazy.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
Yeah, yeah, I remember. There was just a time, you know,
a couple of months ago that maybe like not even
that long ago, maybe like a month ago, where I
was in this like a like at a divide of
like you know, obviously, people telling me like, oh, you
should make your music more commercialized, and I was just like,
you know, I want to keep doing what I'm doing.

(37:45):
But I'm like, man, I don't really know. I'm kind
of at a standstill. I'm not sure what I should
if I should keep doing I'm doing, or you know,
switch it up and then you know, my girl she
listens to like Chyler the Creator And I never really
got into his music for real. I don't dislike it.
I just never got into I never like I never
really heard it for real, you know what I'm saying. So,

(38:07):
but she's playing some of his older stuff. I'm like,
wait this is and so I kind of just went
into like a rabbit hole. I'm like, damn, like this is,
this has been done before, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
Like, and it's like if you want somebody. And the
thing is people just think that I just go in there,
and I like, you know, and like that's just the
you know, that's not the only entire tirety of the
music I make, you know what I'm saying. Like I said,
I'm a fan of truly. I am like a student

(38:41):
and a fan of film. And it's like when you
watch a movie trailer, right, you see a movie trailer
and it's the best parts of the movie, like not
the best parts, but the parts that they know will
grab you.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
Gun fight, gun shooting scenes, uh, maybe a sex scene
in there, car explosion. You're like, damn, I kind of
got to see that much but then when you watch
the movie, you're like, Wow, this is that and much more.
It's way better. They're not gonna put the fucking scene
of Leonardo DiCaprio dying at the end of the movie
in the trailer, of course. You see what I'm saying.

(39:14):
So that's why you know. You hear my songs that
I drop unnecessary, you hear the N word, the F word,
and then you hear another song that's crazy. You're like, shit, man,
I gotta check out this album. This shit sounds crazy.
But you're like, wait, whoa, It's not just slurs. There's
deeper meanings in here. He's making songs about being depressed
or you know him and the things that he's got

(39:36):
going on in his life. It's not just the slurs.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Hey, we got to stop the interview to tell you
about our good folks, odd Socks.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Man.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Now, these are the odd Socks basics, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Now when I.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Tell you this is a product that every single day
I'm alive for the last five six years I have
used are these odd Socks basics. Now, what odd Socks
is doing is they're kind of reinventing the sock game
for 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

(40:07):
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.
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

(40:31):
the ex is on the other side. There we go. Ah,
you see that. Sorry you had to see those white legs.
But it's so dope that you know, I get to
push a product that I use in that I love
so odd Socks they got the six pack of socks
for fourteen ninety nine a odd socks dot Com the basics.
This is the future of socks, the future of underwear

(40:54):
comfort and affordability. I'm talking about affordability without jeopardizing the
quality because they are the most comfortable socks you'll ever
put on your feet. Ladies and gents and the Etceterasks
got to show love to the etceterask we like all
the stripes on the flag. There are odd socks dot
com man much love to my brothers over there? Could
you see yourself? I mean you mentioned Tyler. Tyler's done

(41:15):
a really good job of evolving, and like it hasn't
really been in the last four or five years where
Tyler's like crossed over. It started with the Ego album,
right exactly.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
But it's like evolving.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
But it's evolving. But do you care to have that
level of success where like you could get in a
car and hear your music on the radio.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Yes, yes, I do, Yes, And that's what I'm saying.
It's like there needs to there's a difference between changing
and evolving. You know what I'm saying. Nobody likes change.
Nobody does. Even niggas be like, oh I do like change. No,
you don't, because if something if your girls to break
up with you right now, nigga, you be snop bubble crying,

(41:54):
right You see what I'm saying. So it's like nobody
likes change. But if you slowly change aka evolve over time,
then it's like you know what I'm saying. If I
came out today, it was very commercial my next few
three songs I dropped was very commercials Niggas would not
fuck with that shit. They'd be like, bro, who made

(42:15):
you do this? Right? You know what I'm saying. The
fans could always buy through that.

Speaker 2 (42:18):
Yeah, people don't want to feel like you flip the switch.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
Exactly, So it needs to be a gradual change. It's like, yeah, man,
the shit that I'm the unnecessary song is not my
most crazy song ever. I've said way more crazier, crazier,
you see what I'm saying. So it needs to be
a gradual change. Hey, last time I said three slurs,
this time I said two. Next time I'll say one,
and the next time I'll say zero. But it needs

(42:42):
to be a gradual change. You can't just be overnight. Yeah.
And then also it's like to the point to where
you're saying, don't you want to be able to, you know,
people to get in the car and hear your shit
on the radio? Yeah? I think I believe in May
I'm just a crazy nigga, bro, but I believe the

(43:02):
shit that I'm making now could possibly make it to radio. Nigga.
They had a whole bunch of crazy ass songs. They
just put bleeps or mark the words out of on
the radio. Big Seawan's first song was ass. Right, that
shit was all over the radio. What did they do
with the radio version? They changed dance exact dance. So
this shit is possible, you know what I'm saying. Nigga's
first song was ass.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
What would you swap out the word for in the
clean version? Just bleep it, rabbit, Just bleep it.

Speaker 1 (43:27):
You know that. It doesn't have to do nothing. Just
bleep that shit. You know what I'm saying. It doesn't
have to be anything. Maybe rabbit, that's possible. Yeah, but yeah,
I'm saying it's it's ah but yeah, man, it's like
I want to pave my own way. I want to
be able to say, Damn, I can't believe that this
nigga did that, because that's what I've been doing the
whole time in the game. Damn. I can't believe that
this nigga is selling out shows. Damn. I can't believe

(43:47):
that this nigga is actually standing up at it show. Damn.
I can't believe that this nigga blew up. You know
what I'm saying. So that's that's what I've been doing.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
Who are you listening to right now? Like, is there
anybody who's got your inspired currently or anybody who obviously
just just are a fan of at the moment.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
Mmm? Uh, I fuck with this artist? Uh yeah, there
actually is a few people who I've been listening to.
H I fuck with other artist named Jace. It's pretty fire. Yeah,
got you, It's good. Okay, So this artist named Jace

(44:27):
been listening to a lot of like older Eminem songs.
Oh yeah, you know what I'm saying. I really really
fucked with the you know, the shit he was making,
you know when he first came out and.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Shit, yeah, if you just listen to Kill You by
Eminem and realized that that album won Grammy's and he
talked about raping his mom, it's a.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Lot of crazy shit. It is a lot of crazy shit,
you know what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I
just need proof of concept that had happened before. I
don't care if that shit was in nineteen thirty eighteen twelve.
The fact that it ever happened lets me know, iright,
I can do that shit. So yeah, uh, and then
who what other artists like I said, I've listened to
a lot of cold Play and a lot of a

(45:08):
lot of Green Day as well.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Green Day, Man, it has to be an honor or
not to make it into a Cat Williams Stand Up Special.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Well man, you know the thing is with that is like,
you know, it's coming the same thing with the Snoop
Dogg thing and you know all these other things. It's like,
people are like, bro, he mentioned you on his thing,
but it's like, yeah, it's like but he spat on
me though, you know what I'm saying. So it's like
it's like, yeah, that's cool, but like I wish it
was in a better circumstance. And at the same time,

(45:41):
he is a comedian, so you know he does it
is that's what he does. But it's like, I don't know,
like I've never seen him to put somebody's fucking picture
on the screen.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
I've never seen that either, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
It's like, and I was seeing that he was touring
that act for like at least a year, so I.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
Was seeing, oh you had seen it. Yeah, he was
on the road.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
Performing a Cardinal Carnival cruises and shit, they got like
picture of me on them. I'm like, God, damn.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Damn, you've been getting that dated bunch joke off for
a year or now.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
For a while. Yeah, and it wasn't even really that funny.
He it took ship that people said in the comments,
and I've seen funnier things in the comments, you know
what I'm saying. So I'm like, this wasn't even very
much thought put into this joke. He's like, if I
put this nigga's picture on screen and say whatever, they'll laugh.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
Yeah, because you aren't, like you're still kind of like
an underground artist. Yeah, but you're also like I mean,
when you make it into a catwaias one of the
grades of all time, if you make it into his
special that you're making your you're penetrating like culture in
a way that like not a lot of people can
for worse.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Yeah, I've been I've been doing that shit. So it's like,
you know, that Cat Williams thing was like just another
notch under my belt for real. But yeah, yeah, I
mean it is what it is, you know what I'm saying, Like,
you know, he said that about me, and then you know,
I don't know, man, that n he got beat up
by twelve year old kids.

Speaker 2 (46:58):
So it's like, yeah he did. Yeah, yeah, he reads
a lot though from what he he they say he read.
He reads like he used to say he. I think
he was on interviews saying he reads like thirty books
a day or something.

Speaker 1 (47:10):
Thirty books a day.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
It was like a preposterous amount that would be physically Yeah,
I gotta physically impossible.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
After a twelve year old puts you in a chokehold
on the ground, nigg you gotta rethink your whole life.
This is true. Yeah, he's probably trying to search for
the answering the books. Shit yo, I set up on
my Instagram. I said he got reverse Epstein. The kids
violated him.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
Damn the reverse Epstein. You gotta do a I feel
like you gotta have it. Uh. These Epstein files have
been crazy. I feel like you gotta be cooking up
a pretty crazy Epstein bar.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
A lot of people have been asking me that I
don't necessarily like I haven't been thinking about that for real,
not not really, but a lot of people have been
asking me, like anytime something crazy happens, like the fans
or people like, hey man, you gotta you gotta put
this in a song. I'm like why, Like, I'm not
a fucking like you know what, I man, I'll like
Kendrick Lamar do that ship, you know what I mean?

(48:05):
That's like some activism shit. Bro.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
You know, so were you So I'm assuming you're a
big Saints Row guy, uh, because you have the Saints
Row bar in this I'm assuming that was I played it,
but it was they all wore purple in Saint tro Yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
Yeah, I just thought it was a pretty cool bar.
But I played. I was more of a GTA fan though.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
There was the one Saints Row game I think it
was three where you're like there's like a level where
you jump out of a fucking plane and Kanye's powers
playing while you like are like pulling your power ship.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
I think that's the That was the one where they
had like the dildo swords and ship.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Maybe yeah, that fucking they.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
They like ruined that franchise. I don't know why they
thought like having like dildo swords and dildo guns was
a good idea.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
Who's Taylor Nicole?

Speaker 1 (48:58):
Oh that's a bitch where I'm from, though, it was
just like a who damns like a well known hole.
So yeah, when I said I I think my double
cup is dirty, just like tailoring Nicole. That's like a
shout out to the people back home.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Do you think she's heard that?

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Probably, she's probably heard a lot of shit.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
How do you know she was getting passed around like
the village bicycle.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
Man, it was just like she just had got expected
like bro, just man. There's just so much evidence. Bro.
When people hear that, hey, you're lying on her now,
they're gonna be like, damn, that ship is true and
it's pretty fire. So yeah, but I'm always doing that
in my music, like giving a little shout out and
ship to back back home that people back home will understand.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
How often do you get back home?

Speaker 1 (49:43):
Uh? Ship? Since I've been out here, I've gone back
at least once one time each year. Yeah, so it
looks like I'm due for that visit back home this year.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
I mean she's probably cold right now though, oh.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
Hell yeah yeah yeah. I don't want to deal with
the snow and shit fuck all that.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
Yeah. No, not when is Do you have any idea
when the album's coming out or do we got an
album title?

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Uh? I got the title for you. I don't know
when it's coming out there because I'm still cooking that shit. Uh.
The title of the album is I'll believe it when
I see it, Okay, you know, I believe that's just
I feel like the era of my life that I'm
in right now. A lot of people just you know, uh,
you know, like, oh, this isn't considered lose weight. I'll
believe when I see it, you know what I'm saying, Like,
just a lot of this just feels like a lot

(50:28):
of a thing. This just feels like the air in
my life that I'm in right now, just like you know,
proving myself on things that I've already proven to I've done,
and also things that I haven't done yet.

Speaker 2 (50:42):
Right, So yeah, do you I always wonder this because
there's so many artists who if you think of a
guy like Wisk Khalifa, like Wis Kalifa is so heavily
associated with being a pothead that like if he ever
quit smoking, people would be like, yo, what the fuck?
And I feel like your biggest song is I Can't
be down a cup. Do you feel like your image

(51:06):
is like tied to sip and lean to a point
where it's like a part of your image now, Like.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
I mean, I guess maybe to like people who aren't
necessarily really tapped into me. But people who are tapped
in thos that I stopped doing that shit last year
and I haven't really been promoting that shit at all. Yeah,
so you know, I guess it's just like it's I
don't really. It's like with those types of things, you
just have to keep pushing the narrative that you want

(51:35):
to push and do it to where people catch on. Right,
So you know what I'm saying, Like, Hey, niggas either
catch on or they don't. I'm still just gonna be me.

Speaker 2 (51:45):
Was it pretty pretty easy for you to get off?

Speaker 1 (51:48):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (51:48):
No, because there's like withdrawals and shit.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
No, it's pretty bad, but niggas got through it.

Speaker 2 (51:53):
Yeah, I had to be tough, man. I know a
lot of a lot of my homies who've gotten off it,
they're like, yo, it's rough, very like painful.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
Yeah, but I've been doing way more painful shit broll.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
You know what motherfuckers will do now is like they'll
do kratum from the smoke shops. There's like this shit
called kratum that's supposed to like help you with withdraws,
but then they get addicted to cratum. Have you heard
of kratum?

Speaker 1 (52:16):
Not Doug.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
It's like an herb that is like if you anytime
you go to a smoke shop, they got like fifty
different versions of this shit and motherfuckers be createmed out.

Texas Chainsaw Ate, that ship threw it up, ate it again?

Speaker 2 (54:29):

You don't know. It's like you're you're either the killers
or the victims, so you just gotta If you're the victims,
you escape. If you're the killers, you kill the victims.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
Did you try to fuck around Marble Rivals at all?

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Nah? I never had. People told me that game sucked,
so I just believe them when it comes to games,

A lot of people are into Arc Raiders.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
I fucked with it. I played it a few times.

because eventually that shit just gets.

Speaker 2 (55:04):
Boring, right right right?

Speaker 1 (55:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
I feel like with Fortnite, they've done it really, probably
the only game ever to like keep just making people interested. Yeah,
it's kind of crazy how long of a run Fortnites had.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
Yeah, and I've said those two games I played, you know,
take the stage on Fortnite, but I hate them. I
fucking hate them. I have, but it's like I play
them because like I be boring and it's fun sometimes,
but well I mostly hate that shit. Why because I
used to be like really good at the game. But
that was when I was a fucking loser and I
had no life.

Speaker 2 (55:36):
Yeah, now you're shit going on.

by losers that have no life, and I'm like fuck, man,
