Speaker 2 (01:02):
How old were you when you discovered this beautiful voice
of yours?
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Man?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Like, when you really knew you had you had like
a unique tone and voice that was very special.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
I was like I was singing when I was a
young and early at church, but like I ain't know,
like I had a unique voice to probably like high school, Okay,
my voice is getting deeper. Shit, So yeah, once you
start growing up your voice, yeah, and it was like
niggas be like then you got like a deeper voice.
(01:34):
It was like different, you know what I'm saying. Like
that's when I found out I had a unique voice.
And then starting to make music every day while I
was in high school, That's when I felt my sound.
That's how I realized how to use my voice in
a different way and not sound like everybody else.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
For you, like, uh, you've done a great job and
pretty cool. Like I feel like a lot of artists
kind of start off as like writers and they let
that rock for like some years and then they go
the artist route. I feel like you've done that in
a quicker, quicker way, right, Because was it Chris Brown
that initially kind of gave you a shot on was
(02:10):
it Breezy Breezy?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I wrote Will's fall Off News right here. That was
like the first I've been writing for like a year
or two. That was like the first big placement I
got Chris Brown.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Wow, that's a fucking that's Chris Breezy.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
And like that was June last year, right a month
after that guy did came out. So like before niggas
knew out, like I was a known writer. I feel
like I was seeing your name though you was seeing
my name. I was seeing your name. I was putting
some work in, but it was like it wasn't like,
oh he he a go to writer, Like this was up.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
On your ship before God did. Like I remember, he
was really into your ship. Like, yo, that Friday Due
is hard because he's an engineer and a singer. Yeah,
because he's probably because he an engineer. Niggas in the
industry knew me, but the world didn't know like here
a writer, you know what I'm saying. So I got
introduced to the world as an artist. The only people
that really knew me as a writer was you know,
the engineers, like if you know you know type you know.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But I ain't never want to be no writer, bro,
I just I knew that was the way that was
kind of your way to get you in the door.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Like my manager to me, like when I met him,
he like being a songwriter might be an easier way
to get in.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I feel like it is the easiest way.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
It is the easiest way because because you're.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Kind of there to help the artist. You're an artist,
you're there to kind.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Of because look, bro, like when you meet and urs
and executive label niggas, you telling them your artists don't
really mean ship to them unless you got some.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Motion, because they hear it.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
They hear it every day, especially if they go on
your Instagram. You know you don't got no motion. They
don't give a fun going to check Spotify. Yeah, they're
gonna check everything, and they really don't give a fuck.
Even if you're nice and ship, it doesn't matter. It
don't matter.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Show me, show me the.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Audience, Show me the audience. So if you go up
to the niggas and be like, bro, I could get
artists ten hooks. That's what they want to hear, bro Like, y'
y'all need hooks, y'all need beats. I could do your
whole album. Yeah, you go up to an end or
like that, I promise you the studio tonight. Yeah, I'm
playing some ship. So that's really the easiest way. I
(04:20):
encourage every artist at if you're good, start there. Yeah,
still do your artist, ship, don't lose yourself, but like
try to get in by writing.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I mean so many grades have done that, like shout
to Eric, shout to Neo, I mean ship, Yeah, on
and on and on, tons of folks like that. So
obviously Chris Brown album comes out and then out of
nowhere this God Did record, which is one of the
We talked about this a bit on at the BT
(04:51):
radio room, but like, obviously, man, this God Did Ship
is like one of the craziest jay Z verses we've
ever gotten. I mean from performing he Hunt the BET Awards, uh,
I mean just just the Grammy Ship he said, get
it right. It was the gram such an insane moment
(05:13):
in hip hop. I mean, got calid. I feel like
that record really kind of really set call it up
to you know, be looked at it in a different
way in terms of like putting records together. But give
me the backstory of like, I guess the whole process
of that song, because we've seen the video of you
singing it was that in your bedroom? And that was that?
(05:35):
Did you did you record that prior? Like like while
you're actually cutting that hook? I made it. That's just crazy.
I knew it was going to be special. I will
tell you a story like I told you I was
writing for a little bit. So I was in this
pub deal in the A and R left and it
was on some ship like I ain't have nobody else,
(05:57):
like I'm broken ship, I ain't had no connection. And
then too the building besides that A and R. So
me and my team was looking for like a buyout.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Somebody else would buy out my manager, Edgar, buy me
out my pub deal. So my manager, Edgar, he connected
the Eddie Mary J. Blise manager he worked at another
pub company, Prescription. He telling him like, bro, we need
to looking for a buyout. We needed this buyout like
hed one. I'm telling you like he was just pushing that.
(06:25):
And then Moneys go by. They finally buy me out
with my pub deal. M hm. So we fresh into
this pub deal. Chris Brown come out, and then I'm
watching cal It on Instagram say God did every day
like every time I wake up. I think he said
God did like every day for like three months, I've
(06:46):
been had like a guy did simple. And then I
called my manager. I'm like, bro, let's send it, let's
send it up, call it simple. He's like, nah, I
make a hook, like a real hook, like just you
type shit. I made the hook, Brock. As soon as
I started like the idea, I called my cameraman, bro
I said, come to the crib. This is special. Like
(07:07):
I already had the melody, like before I recorded it,
I already had like the melody, not even the words.
I just knew where I was gonna take it. As
soon as I made it, Broh, I knew this she
was the one.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Now did you get pretty immediate feedback from Cali that like,
oh this is something like this is but I know
you didn't know who didn't make You didn't know who
actually made it on the record for a while right now.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
So look after I made it, right, we called Eddie.
We played it for Eddie that Nigga went crazy. He
had Cali number texted to cal Cali takes it back
like the next day, I need this on my album,
you know what I'm saying. Like a week go by,
we already starting the paperwork. It's at first it was
supposed to be like a like a just me with
(07:54):
the keys. How you hear my hook? A couple of
days go by, he like I just put three artists
on here and a singer said this shit gonna live forever.
As soon as he said that, Bro, I'm already thinking
like Nahs, Kanye jay Z, I'm thinking all high level
names based off the like the record. Yeah, for sure.
(08:14):
So I heard rumors of who was on the track,
but I ain't here the track till it came out, Bro,
like everybody else.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So when you heard jay Z had like a fucking
I don't know how many minutes long was it? Five
minutes longer? Five minutes longer made it impossible to play
at radio. I'll tell you that they were trying to
make all kind of random versions of that song when
they were working at the radio. I'm like, guys, this
is too long. Guys, this is not seven minute song
is not working at radio.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
God bless it. It's a great record.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
But what was your reaction here in hope?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Go off? Nah?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
It was crazy, bro, quite possibly the best guest jay
Z for Top three. Guess jay Z vers ever.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Gonna live forever, Bro, just normal part of that. It's
a blessing. Bro.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Were you nervous doing the Grammy performance outside with everybody?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Like? Yeah, I was nervous as shit, like, so they
told me I was performing I was. I was bitching, bro,
like the whole It's like a month before they told
me I was I was performing. I'm like, fuck, Bro, Like,
I didn't expect this this early.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Bro, Like, do you like, do you like really like
train like a fighter trains training your voice, making sure
you fucking yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
You know what I mean? Like the week of the Grammys, Bro,
every day I was singing Guy did like all day
just so it's like by the time the Grammys come,
I can't mess up because I've been singing it all week.
When I woke up shower singing that shit. I remember,
like right before he was about to perform, Calik came
to my where I was getting dressed that type shit
(09:38):
it's on my TikTok and he played the instrumental in
my ear. His whole team, everybody else, jay Z, everybody else.
Had he put the gin in my ear. I don't
even know he thought I was gonna sing. That was
before the performance, and I just start singing it everybody
like he ready and I just once that happened, Bro,
I just went on stage that same energy. Bro knocked
(09:58):
it out the park.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Talk about like some of your influences growing up obviously
being out of Philly Man. Philly is obviously a legendary
hip hop city. There's so many different artists. We can
go back to the roots obviously all the way to
meet Mill and you know, Free Way, all that good ship.
But like, who were you influenced by growing up?
Speaker 1 (10:19):
I grew up in a church, so it was just
like soul for music when I was a kid. And
then like when I outside of that, I'll start going
to like Boys to Men. You know what I'm saying, Like,
what was.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
That dude with that deep voice on Boys to Men?
Deepest ship? I know you're talking about he was talking shit.
I forgot his name though, but that was like, I
hope he's on cameo. That'd be the cameo to get
like to have him lay down your voice, like your voicemail, like,
hey what up, ladies, you call Friday, leave a voicemail
(10:50):
and yes, this is me from Boys to Man. Yeah,
that was like my like first and obviously Philly legends.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, so it's like and then it was like right
after they was just like all R and B like
Jamie Fox, Brian Knight. Then I started like living my
life and like Meek Mill, Kanye West and Drake shouts
of I mean Jamie Fox alien level talent. Yeah, different
niggas don't know, like they sleep on his music.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
That first album that Unpredictable. Yeah, what was that song
called One Night?
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Was it one Night Occasion? That ship? That ship man?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I was, I'm so glad he's all right.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
He one of the ones, top tier actor, top tier comedian,
top tier singers, singers, just everything.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
He's a beast man.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, and shot to a shot to his new movie
The Clone Tyrone going right now, Yeah, it's going crazy.
So obviously you you end up for you the catalyst
to start writing. And like, I guess everyone kind of
you said you had a pub deal that you had
to get bought out of, right, So what was like
your first initial like real step into being in the
(12:00):
quote unquote music industry? Like how did you get that
initial pub deal? Like before we really knew who you were,
you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Uh shit around? Like he was like twenty nineteen, twenty twenty,
that's when I met my manager. Remember he was like,
bro start writing, Yes, So when I met him, I
was like making like ten.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Hooks a week, bro, Like were you still in Philly. Yeah,
I was in the same room at the crib. At
the crib, you're like cutting the hooks, sending him to him,
and then he's doing his.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Job getting he's sending it out. So it's like I
was made like ten ten songs a week. Yeah. At
that time, I was close to my man produced, my producer,
the Newso, and I started making a lot of beats
on his a lot of hooks on a lot of
hooks on his beat, and he was about to get signed.
But the person he was about to sign to, they're like,
(12:52):
who that on the hooks? Like, you know what I'm saying.
He hard. So that's how like, that's how that happened
with my first pub deal tape. Shit.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
And now when they ask who's that on the hook?
They keep you on the hook. Yeah, they keep they
keep me. Now now they're like, oh, that's the Friday, Sure,
we're gonna need that come over here. How in demand
are you in terms of just like artists trying to
get you on their ship, and how selective are you
being with that because a lot of people burn out
pretty quick.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
When it comes to oversaturating. Yeah, it's like I look
at every situation like do it what do it do
for both who us? They like do it benefit me?
Or sometimes about the music for like the song's amazed,
so amazed, and I'm fucking with you, but it's like
I'm down to work with whoever. Bro Like it's just
(13:39):
gotta makes sense for the both of us, you know
what I'm saying. Like at the same time, I'm giving
my own my own, my own music. Yeah, you know
what I'm saying. So it's not like I'm building the
already built a fanbase.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Probably harder for you to give away hooks at this
point because you're like, I mean that could that could
be my ship?
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, but I make so much music. There's more where
that came from.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
It's like I got like five hundred that I'm not using.
I just wanted to say with the great ones, the
great ones aren't greedy because it's just more where that is.
I'm gonna just write another one tomorrow, so go ahead
take it, like help us out, like it's gonna help
my picture the program.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Like in like my music, like I say, and the
music I dropped like on my projects lost the melody
and ship. It's a very distinctive sound like so like
a lot of the ship I make, I'm like, damn,
that's not for me. I just give it to somebody else.
You kind of you know what I'm saying. Yeah, you
don't fit in my album. So everything I make for
(14:33):
me is like one hundred percent for me. Yeah. So
like say I'm working on an album, I'll make fourteen songs,
and all fourteen songs going album. You know what I'm saying, Like,
I'm not making I'm not even finishing the song right
for me, And it's not you know what I'm saying.
So I got like five hundred like that I wouldn't drop,
(14:55):
but I could get somebody. Sure, it's a nice problem
to have, No, for sure, we.

So that like afro beat feeling is in me. It's
the funnest genre. It's like, finally there's music that people
can dance to happening like on the mainstream level, you
(18:53):
know for sure. It's like the best part of the
club night is when like DJ because people are having fun.

like it's like, yeah, I could pop bottles to that,

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Like I think back to the video of like when
Man and like Artists, and I just remember being like, damn,
I really need to dive into this guy's catalog.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
If he's making grown Man cry out here, you're making
real music, bro. Like a lot of bullshit be overshadowed,
but the music, the real music will be put in
the back a lot nowadays. But when you're telling like
a nigga like Sanfah Special, Bro.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I donna say, like, uh, what what was it like
growing up in Philly for you? Because we kind of
hear so much. You know, my co host DJ Damages
from Philly, and he would always tell me like about
North Philly and places like Chester, Pennsylvania, and just like
like Philly is like that just that area in general,
wild place. And there's a lot of videos that have
(20:43):
been going viral recently of like because Fatana shit's really bad.
You've probably seen the videos of people like slumped out,
like looking like zombies all over the streets ship out there.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
That's right, that's like near where I'm from, a.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Little bit by the way, also happening here in LA.
But you know, but what was it like for you
up in Philly? I mean, obviously you were going to church,
and you know, I'm sure you were. You had a
great childhood, but like, was it was it easier or
hard for you to deal with like kind of staying
out of that ship.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
You know, church was in the trenches. Yeah, like my
pop church was in the trenches, bro. So it was like,
it's not like I had an easy childhood. Like as
soon as you step out of church, it might be
a shootout, you know.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
What I mean, but you were able to kind of
keep It's kind of like you gotta like.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
It's a rough neighborhood, bro. It's easy to like fall
into in that lifestyle, right, and it's like you really
just got to stay out the way, Like just stay
out the way, bro, like because it would be like
you be in the way, not even on some dumb shit,
you just be in the way some crazy way, just
(21:49):
like you're at the wrong place at the right time.
So what I will say, like I was always focused
on music, like everybody knew me, Like that's fried like
on some music ship, like you know what I'm saying.
Like I used to gineer niggas in Philly, produce for
niggas like on some studio ship, you know what I'm saying.
So it was just like I was always on some
music shipping out the way for her. So it's definitely
(22:10):
like a rough city though. But you really gotta like
just s you gotta be.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Focused so you don't get fall into you know, yeah,
what do you how do you feel about the other
trend that's happened in Philly right now? If you think
you guys are too rare and just like the dance
ship is going crazy.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
They have bro, they're having a way. Yeah, they having
like it's beautiful bro to see.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Who's the group kids? You guys just signed? Yeah yeah yeah,
the sturdy ship is going crazy. I mean, I'm just
like it's like everybody's kind of doing their own version
Philly thing.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Everybody having fun bro, Like they brought it like a fun.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Vibe, fun energy that was missing.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
And that's why I like Afro beat doing what they're doing,
Like you being the club. All these somethings about killing
and ship, all this Afro shit, Come on, niggas, want
to have funny dance, bro, Like I feel that why
Afro doing so good? And even the niggas from Philly,
like they bring in like good vibes back.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I mean I'm thinking like even like obviously Uzzi's from Philly, right,

like I.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Mean, you weren't on them early because you also weren't
alive exactly, because being on them early would have been
you were listening to them m because I think their

Have you picked the next single yet?
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Obviously?
Speaker 2 (31:17):
The Chris Brown Songs going crazy. But have you guys
picked the next singer? You're gonna let the fans. We
dropped another one. We dropped a single two weeks ago
that when it comes to you.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
Who's on that? Wasn't that one? That was just you? Okay,
I didn't hear that, So Chris Brown Jump, we dropped
when it comes to you, it's going crazy right now,
the video going crazy.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
And you know what's gonna happen when the album comes out.
You guys are gonna see them streams go up and
whatever record. And that's usually I feel like that's kind
of the new way to you throw out the singles
and then you put the album and then let the
fans kind of gravitate towards especially with these bigger artists. Now,
the labels will hit me and they'll be like, Hey,
which song do you like on the album that just
came out with no note like Utopia right, like no
(31:57):
one likes k pop.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Probably the worst song on the album, Nigga Crazy.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
It is the worst song on the album. It's not
a terrible song. I love Utopia each on, but it's like,
if you're gonna go with a record, you gotta go
with the meltdown right to each is on what's your
favorite do you like?
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Well?
Speaker 2 (32:15):
First of all, what are your thoughts on Utopia? It's
a great album, great production. Yeah, I liked it, Yeah,
I like it. Yeah, what's your what's your album of
the year so far?
Speaker 1 (32:25):
This year?
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Besides you can't say a.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Great question, don't yourself album of the year? And on
my phone.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Because the narrative is it's been a pretty rough year
for music.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
It's been a crazy year, not the best year. I'm
gonna have to go on some afro beat shit probably okay, Yeah,
I'll be on the asro shiit. Hip hop is like,
like you said, it's been I don't feel like niggas.
Nigga's not focused no more how they used to be.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Like That's why, in my opinion, the best album of
the year so far as Killer Mike's album.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
I heard that shit was crazy and somebody played me
that John too. It's a joint Andre three thousand on
there My Future hard yep. Andre three thousand Future.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Also worked on that album for like four years, so
that's I mean, listen.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Based off that sound song alone, bro production, cadence, real music, bro,
and that's what I'm saying like that music is not
being pushed in front of the bullshit like he dropped
the album of the year. I would get on some
rap shit how when I listen, But it's like so
(33:35):
much bullshit be put in the front of our face.
The real music is pushing it back, bro, Like you
know what I'm saying. So I feel like niggas gotta
start back. I feel like back then, bro, all the
all the the ship that was put in the front
of our face, it had some like some structure to us,
you know what I'm saying, Like fifty these niggas was
(33:56):
making hooks that everybody could sing.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Bro, Like, listen, I'm to get your take because you're
a songwriter, right. I feel, for whatever reason right now,
like the women in hip hop are like the only
people who are really kind of applying themselves and trying
to make real records. And I don't know if that's
because you know, they're in with more writers or they
they're they're they're try I just feel like women are
making the most palatable, palatable records with structure, with hooks,
(34:23):
with like melodies like it just I feel like they're
really running circles around uh. Male artists right now in
terms of just like when you turn the radio on, like.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
They having any way. Yeah, cat, like the.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Chicks are killing it, like shout out the sexy red dog.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
She having a way.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Like I think they killing it more because they being
themself type shit. They're not trying too hard.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Just being them and just you know what I'm saying,
even they they were origin of themself.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
And I also think women are very like, uh, for
whatever reason, a lot of women artists are like extremely
open to like bringing in help for melodies, for hooks.
I'm not saying for verses, but you know, no men
and niggas is too. Yeah, I mean, but you can't.
You just can't hear it in the songs. Yeah, motherfucker
is just rapping like three minutes. You're like, wait, where's
(35:10):
the Oh, that's the hook?
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Like, oh, bro, these niggas just making These niggas will
wrap the whole song and just make the song title
or something they said in the song they got no hook.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
And then the hook is just like it sounds like
an extension.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Of a verse.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
And then when you hear it back again the verse, Yes,
and it's the laziest.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Ship said in the verse. They will name the title
of the song. Oh the fucking bro. We need a
new we need a new age. Fifty cent bro, we
need something this nigga fifty cent made hooks. Sure that
joh Nelly hooks bro Like, so when you're in the club,
everybody's singing that hook bro like that ship. That's why
(35:51):
I think hip hop not where it needs to be
right now. Bro, I agree with you, man, people gotta
start making records again. Shout out to uh so everybody.
They're trying though, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
