be putting our minds together. Youknow, he a good dude, I'm
a good dude. Definitely got anidea. You know. We had just
put our minds together and try tospread the love as much as we can,

(02:42):
you know what I'm saying. Sowe always coming up with ship,
turkey giveaways, backpack, yeah,all that type of ship. So you
know, that's just a part ofwhat we do. Definitely. Uh.
I was gonna ask you about youruh, your music, and it's that
the projects that you got coming out. Yeah, and in your movies.

(03:04):
You're gonna have a soundtrack for themovie. We're working on one right now.
Okay, make a special one.Yeah, what's what's the movie fit
to be about? What's the moviecalled? Because one of our media members,
the Warte, is supposed to bein a movie out here for sure.
I heard he playing the police,playing a cop, nigger. He's
a good one, a good one, dirty cop. He's yeah, that's

(03:31):
at least yeah, straight up,how that be nayr ee in the movie.
We got a couple other people.Man. We're just trying to put
this ship together, man, youknow, ship, We're just grinding,
man, We're just working. Man. I love this ship, you know,
just creating these ideas of life.So Holly, I'm gonna keep it
real. You know, growing upseeing you, I didn't realize you wrapped

(03:53):
till we got older. Yeah,but did you start rapping late or was
it you always rapped? You justdidn't tell hardly nobody. I took only
people like in the West Side,gotcha. Okay, Okay, that's what
it was. Okay, I wasrapping, but I took it seriously.
I was still growing, you know. I wasn't all the way prepared to

(04:15):
just be out there like I raped, you know, so I feel you
shit together for a while, andthen when I felt like it was time,
shit, it was time? Wasthat? Okay? Let me ask
you this because we just had somebodyin here we talking about mental thing?
Was that a mental thing to overcome? Or was it was it you or
was it people? Were you tripping? Like I don't want people to know
that I rap? Or was it? Almost like I don't want people all

(04:39):
in my business like that because sometimesme being who I am, I'm not
a rapper, I'm not hell offamous, but sometimes I be like,
man, I don't want everybody upon my shitt and in my business,
you know what I'm saying, andsometimes information gets out there. So was
it like a thing where you kindof didn't want to know? It was
therapeutic for me because at the endof the day, I don't really talk
to people about a lot of shit, but when I write that shit down,

(05:00):
I ain't you know, I saywhat I say, and that's what
I say. You know what I'msaying, and I'm not afraid to say
it, you know. So Ithink that that wasn't the problem, and
the problem was hoping people liked it. Oh. I was more scared of
like, okay, then reaction getstight, But do these do everybody else
think it's tight? You know whatI'm saying. So for a while I
used to just like, you know, just try to get my ship have

(05:23):
anxiety with that, yeah, okay? And I just listened to a lot
of rappers and shit and just youknow, listen to myself and like,
all right, am I doing itlike them? You know what I'm saying,
and my sounding as good as them, you know what I'm saying as
my shit together like that, Soyou know, I was just critique shit.
Hello much for a minute, where'dyou get your confidence from? Like
when did you realize, like,damn, I really do be spitting when

(05:46):
people that I looked up to heardme, and then they was like,
bro, you hard, Bro,you wanted them once you hear me.
It's people that that rap before methat I was scared to let listen to
my wrestling. I'm like, Idon't know, and they like, huh
like this shit. So it waslike okay, and that that always feel
good to get because you just said, like one of the things was you

(06:09):
don't know if everybody was gonna likeus like your music, but like it
always feel good to get reassurance fromsomebody that you either grew up to,
grew up listening to, fucking with, even your peers, but like especially
when it's somebody that you admire,look up to and you respect their opinion,
it's like burnt for real, andyou know, it's crazy what that
little boost confidence can do for you. I can honestly say mostly all the

(06:32):
people I listened to from our areathat was somebody to me, they gave
me that confirmation, So that thatthat boosted me and that gave me that
push. You know what, I'msaying my family, you know, my
brothers and sisters and shit like that, just really like believing in me,
giving me that push, like youcan do this shit like you wanted.
You wanted them one, you knowwhat I'm saying. So that helped me

(06:54):
out a lot, you know,and just you know, like you said,
having confidence in myself after after theamount of time, just knowing that
I'm just who I am. Youknow what I'm saying, I might not
be like nobody else. I'm justgonna be me. Describe me, Describe
your style. I was gonna say, describe me, describe your style different.
It's very different. I never reallywanted to, like try to sound

(07:17):
like nobody or nothing like that.But I I listened to I watched,
I heard a lot, you knowwhat I'm saying, And I ain't gonna
say I ain't tried to, likeyou know, waves come through. I
did try to get on the wave, you know, not copy nobody,
but I'm making music for the createyour lane with that waves off the top.
Yeah, that's it. But Ifeel like I'm different. I ain't

(07:39):
really like nobody else, you knowwhat I'm saying. Definitely, can I
ask you this question now? Youknow fee right deal. Okay, So
like did he influence you in rapin any way as far as like who
you listen to, because to me, you sound like an East Coast nigga

(08:00):
to say that West Coast like youknow the game or hurt that a lot,
but you sound like a like Tome, you sound like a Jada
like you feel me like a likeyou just because your boys just come and
they come and they come and it'ssimple. It's not like Hella extra words
and it got a little bit offabulous in there because you like to rhyme
your like you just don't like torhyme the word. You want the whole

(08:20):
thing to kind of to measure up. See. I love when people really
like understand what I be trying todo. I think a lot of people,
some people that shit be going overtheir head because it's like, you
know, I don't know, butI have listened to Jada a lot,
fab and them when I was youknow, younger, and shit, you
feel me, and I definitely likestudied their styles and you know how they

(08:41):
was putting their words together. Iwatched battle Rap. Yeah I know some
battle rap people, and shit,you feel me so so you want so
you you more so influenced by thebattle like a battle rap type of I
just love all type of music atthe end of the day. I love
Tupac music because I used to listento Pock and then I used to be

(09:03):
like, damn all his beats wasn'thella hard? But you had to listen
to what he was saying. That'swhat type of artists I wanted to be.
Fuck to beat, listen to whatI'm saying. You know what I'm
saying. So I took that andtried to run with it. So I've
never really let the beats really likemake me feel no type of way.
I'm just like me. It's aboutwhat I'm what I'm putting down on this
motherfucker you feel me. So Ijust always tried to make my ship,

(09:24):
you know, stand out a littlebit and try to be a little bit
more creative than anybody else. Okay, I could nah for real, real,
you're definitely doing that. I hada question as far as the music

but you do you want your femalesuper square with a little bit of

(12:48):
ratchet or hello, ratchet with alittle bit of square. I'd rather be
a square for real, because atthe end of the day, when we
out and about, you gotta knowhow to act. You know what I'm
saying. I don't want you talkingtoo loud. Don't be cussing out the
waiter. It's a way that youold school. Yeah, so at the
end of the day, you're agentleman. I don't like that sh gangster

(13:09):

(13:31):
you be you be all around man. So like like I said,
you know you're from the hood.I seen you start was rapping, but
it's like you really are a rapper. Don lv Don Holly, Like,
Bro, you be going. Isee y'alls in Vegas, y'all be at

(13:52):
l A, y'all be really moving. Mean talk about the grind and the
hustle of what y'all be doing.Man, and your daddyction shit, that's
that's all you got right now.You know what I'm saying, hass of
dedication you know to this shit.Shit is just you know, just motivation,
you know, just wanting to besomewhere, getting somewhere, you know,

(14:13):
getting the confirmation to keep going.You know what I'm saying, What
are some of those confirmations? Shit, Meeting other artists that's bigger than us,
Meeting some of these people that's behindthe scenes, meeting bigger actors.
You know what I'm saying, Buildingthese relationships, networking with people. You
know what I'm saying. Shit,just loving this shit for real. At

(14:33):
the end, of the day.You know you really love hip hop?
What's your favorite part about being arapper? Ship? Telling my story?
Telling my stories? Shit, theycame to raise and then for like telling
your story? Uh not, LikeI'm not trying to ask like what are

(15:01):
you saying? But I'm trying toask, like who is your art?
Like who do you? Who areyou? Who are you talking to?
You just want anybody to hear yourstory? Or you trying to do you
have like a message for anybody?I think I think everybody got their own
clan. You know what I'm saying. You said clan or plan clan.
Okay, So when it comes toyou know, if you get your music

(15:22):
out there broad enough for a lotof people to hear, you're gonna get
you gonna gain your own fan base. People that's gonna hear, they gonna,
they gonna, they gonna understand yourstory. They're gonna see where you're
coming from. It's some people thatI feel that's trash is hell, But
they got a fan base because themtype of people understand their story, you

(15:43):
know what I'm saying. And Iyou know, not to say that they
trash, but you know, maybesome some people I don't listen to But
at the end of the day,they got their own fan base because people
understand their story for whatever reason,they might be going through the same shit
whatever. So that's just how Ilook at it. Just keep grinding and
build your on fan base because they'regonna come. Are you starting to see

(16:03):
traction more traction with each project,each thing that you do? I do
see the buzz. Like I said, a lot of times, I have
people on here because I see youdoing it. I see you do.
I see an improvement or I seeuh more of an involvement with you and
you and your fans are and participation. I may see numbers going up from
YouTube, you views, from yourInstagram views. Do you see more attraction

(16:26):
coming along as you've been rapping foryou know, the last three for five
years. Definitely, definitely, Butit's more it's more I need to do,
you know what I'm saying. Andthat's like we was talking, you
know earlier, that when you puttingso much focus on multiple things, it's
hard to get to the things thatyou really need to get to, you
know what I'm saying, Work onyour craft. Yeah, So it's it's

(16:47):
it's it's me kicking myself in theass where sometimes I gotta fall back and
focus on this instead of this,you know, or instead of doing five
things at one time, you knowwhat I'm saying. So but I do
see I do see the growth though, make sure us grow, right,
So definitely. I mean that's thefunniest part is like I started this podcast
and it's like I told you,like we were talking, you just gotta

(17:08):
do it. He was like,Bro, you ain't trying, nigga,
you doing it. But it's likeonce you do it, you see what
you gotta do, and that's whatyou want you want to see. Okay,
damn we did this many views andthis many days or this happened from
that, and then you just seeyour ship grow. That's a beautiful thing
for real, for real, rightright right, uh huh right now.

(17:30):
What I'm noticing is, you know, we I'll speak for myself. I
come from a different era where excuseme that we not really so much with
the gimmicks, you know what I'msaying. Nowadays, like this this new
generation, they know how to capitalizeoff the Internet, off the views,
just off the you know everything else, know how to play off the cameras,

(17:53):
and shit like that. You feelme. So that's the thing.
I sit back and I'll be like, you know, I don't know if
I'm ready to do that, youknow, but I know it's needed,
you know what I'm saying. AndI see it happening all the time.
But at the end of the day, you know, I just try to
be myself. That's that's the hardestpart for me, because like you just
said, it's a lot of timesit's gimmicks and I think it's corny,

(18:15):
you know what I'm saying. It'slike it's like, you know, we
use the word real nigga, somebodydon't be real nigga shit, and they
be like, why would I dothat just to get some clout? And
we from the era where it's notabout it's about what you did or what
you're doing, and we have tobe there and see that shit. The
new generation, it's like, you'retrash as fuck, but you're funny in

(18:37):
this and it's almost like people likeyou they don't even like the music.
They like you for this, butthey don't even like you for the music,
but they like they're gonna play yourmusic because they like you for that,
right, But that's good because that'slike boxing people in. You know
what I'm saying. Okay, evenright now, I feel like if the

(18:59):
way that we was doing it it'sworking, then we can keep doing it
that way. But this is anew time in a new day, so
it's we gonna keep trying it thatway and not getting the results that we're
looking for, you know what I'msaying, knowing that it's a new time
in a new day to do somethingelse. But I feel like, you
know, everybody gotta stay true towhat they do. If it if you
feel like the gimmick shit ain't foryou, don't do it. You feel

(19:22):
mean, but you know, findthe right one for you if you right.
It's like you gotta find that balancefor you. And you feel me.
You like, like you said,you want the number, you want
to succeed and do well, butyou you can't go overboard where it's like,
bro, like, who are younow? Filmo? You would never
do that? What are you doing? You feel me? So I totally
get that. You never got toyour uh your mouth rushmore of rappers,

(19:45):
your top four rappers, your topyour favorite favorite, You could do favorite
dead or alive dead or alive.That shit don't matter. I mean,
it matters to the person that's deador alive, but yeah, not to
me. I say, Pack,yes, sir, Biggie Jada forty.

(20:18):
Oh that's an ill. That's anill for I am not mad at that
for Pack Biggie Jada an E forty. I'm not mad at that side of
the list. Uh do you rightor do you freestyle off the doll or
punch? It all depends on howI feel. Now. When I do
music, it's about how I feel. You know. Sometimes I write a

(20:41):
whole song before I get to thestudio, you know what I'm saying,
Like on the way on the freeway, righting that motherfucker. Yeah, sometimes
I you know, shit, Ijust want to vibe in the studio and

like that like him in ice Cube. I'm talking about what everybody say?
What everything? Like? For real? How hard? How okay? How
long does that take? Is it? Like just sending our schedule? Okay?
Busy? You know seven months whenwe serious. It probably take us

(27:29):
like a couple of weeks, acouple of weeks. Just do you just
think of a scenario and just firstyou do so do you first do like
the big picture? I live lifefor real, you know what I'm saying.
So you just really taking real life, you know what I'm saying,
Okay, and piecing it together.But my question is do you take like
do you do like a big whatis it like a synopsis and then break

(27:52):
it down like you have like alike a thesis of the movie and then
you break it down, or doyou actually like go through hello and like
each script in line like that throughthe whole movie? Okay? Wow?
Because me like you probably got somechansh it on your mind. Vision,
you know what I'm saying. I'mvision this ship, you know, scene

(28:14):
for seeing. I can picture itin my head. I'm saying with this
purchase to say how this will go? You know, So I don't know
that it's just like having a visionand you just bringing it to life,
you know, and just making surethis shit in order when you do it
right right real? Because I thinkFoote told us, he told us,
he said the first time he triedto do it. He tried to freestyle
it and he was like, man, I can't do that no more so.

(28:37):
And then he said he learned fromthat, and he said, now
he write it down. But Inever I wanted to ask him what.
I just asked, you do y'allwrite it line for line or do y'all
do like a big ass like atheme of it and then break it down
like that. We just, likelike the other movie that we're working on,
we thought of the movie and thenwe just did scene by seeing how

(28:59):
we thought the next scene's supposed togo, the next scene's supposed to go.
You know what I'm saying. Wejust did it like that. Talk
about just doing shit because you,like you said, we're talking in the
green room in the other room.It's like, man, when I want
when I first started Nigga, Iwas doing everything. Yeah, yeah,
hell yeah. How important is itto just to just go out there and
do it? Man? It's goodto know how to do everything you are

(29:22):
part of. You know what I'msaying. You gotta have some knowledge about
it, you know what I'm saying. At least try it, you know.
But like like I was telling you, I tried everything I didn't fucking
recorded myself. I didn't shot myown videos, I didn't edit my own
videos. I didn't try to shootmovies. I didne did everything. You
know what I'm saying. But Iknow that you need a team, you

(29:45):
know, and you can't do alleverything at one time by yourself. Not
gonna happen. But I have seensome creative people though I ain't gonna lie.
I seen a couple of these cameramen shoot good videos and make good
music. So you know what I'msaying, shout out with the party,
shine for sure. Okay, letme go, let me go, shure,

(30:06):
I've just seen them two get in. But yeah, you know,
just don't don't overwork yourself, youknow, make sure you you you focus
on the craft that you're really passionateabout. You know what I'm saying.
Put enough into that, right,you know what I'm saying. Right Like
I said, Man, we gotmy guy Don holly On here is to
