the one thing you want everybody towouldn't want people to know? Like,
Um, I'm a people's person.I mean I'm I'm I'm very hard working
and driven, but um, I'mlike a extrovert. Introvert though. Yeah,

(03:00):
it's so funny because when you listento your music, sounds like if
I didn't know you and I onlyheard the music, that I would think
you were an introvert. Yeah yeah, right right right, Yeah, But
it's a little bit of both.I love people, but I could get
I could get a little too,like, um, I got annoy it
easy easy, I mean, butI but I but I love people for

(03:23):
the most part. And um,at the end of the day, you
know, I like to see peoplewin. You're you're from Syracuse. My
son goes to school in Syracuse rightnow. So I visited Syracuse very often.
You thought about it, I can't. I don't know what it's like
to live there. I know whatit's like to visit as a to the
school. You went to the campus, to the campus. Yeah, I

(03:45):
mean I going off campus a littlebit. But it's very hard to um.
Even when even when I was there, I was like I couldn't get
a sense of like what it wouldfeel like to live here because it's just
a ghost town. It's so aboutthe school, like when you go to
business Syracuse and it's about school,and then it's like quite, it's like
nothing going on. But as soonas you as soon as you make one

(04:05):
wrong turn, you in the pHI mean you're in the puying their homes.
You like you in the hood nowso like h but everybody everybody kind
of like they inside in the daytime, nighttime, it's popping everybody outside.
They because I know you haven't livedin a long time, right, but

(04:26):
do you have any connection to likehow they must feel about what's happening with
you? Like is there like apride enough? Oh? Yeah, because
I mean all my family still there. Yeah, you know, so when
I do things like Jimmy Fallon andall of those things, like my aunt
don't call me often, you knowthat's that's she a real aunt. Like
she one of them aunts were like, you know, she's just ant,
but he feeled me like she justan't. But when I did Jimmy Fallon,

(04:49):
she actually like called me, waslike hey, like like I cried.
I was like, nah, Likethat's that touched me because at the
end of the day, like youknow this aunt that you don't listen to
rap music and stuff like that offtenbut um, you know when she's seen
that, it really touched her.And outside of it touching her own,
you know, like we got tobuy and connect. So yeah, I
still got a lot of all ofmy family. Only people that moved out

(05:12):
of Syracuse, isn't me. Yeah, That's what I was wondering, like
trying to understand where it's from,because you're growing up in Syracuse. It's
not it's not like you're growing upin Atlanta where like you can see mad
people. Yeah, and that cameup around you. Nah, you don't,
you don't you really get to seenothing. And then and then moving
from Syracuse, I moved to Riley, North Carolina. And when we really
got no, when't got nobody outof Riley in North Carolina got a couple

(05:33):
No more than Syracuse. Yeah morethan well, we got Jay Cole,
but Jay Cole is from Fayville,feel me. And then and then me
and baby had popped kinda around thesame time, but like, uh not
really around the same time. Hepopped like maybe two years before me.

(05:53):
And then I like twenty nineteen Igot I got love Cycle with Summer Walker.
Yeah, so like that was kindof where things like taken off a
little bit for me. But yeah, like nah, like wen't really got
nobody. It wasn't a lot ofpeople around. At least there's a reference
from the Carolinas. I was tryingto think, I was trying to think
right now. Yeah, so likeI mean, other than that quiet nah,

(06:17):
yeah, it's quiet. It ain'tlike Atlanta. That's not like New
York. It's not like I know, So, what made you think you
could do this? Man? WhatI could do anything I put my mind?
You know what made me feel likeme feel like I could do it?
I feel like I could do whateverI put my mind to. Yeah,
I'm driven. Even as a kid, it was you just thought I

(06:39):
could do this. Yeah, Igotta. I'm gonna do whatever I want
to do. That's that's that's mymindset. And if it don't work out
for me, at least I triedit. Yeah, ain't nobody else gonna
tell me what I can do andcan't do. What's you? Must have
a big gold then like what Yeah? Yeah, like what's what's you?

gotta like people gotta know what surprisedthough, you start falling in love with
everybody always like oh yeah, whenI'm at this age, I'm gonna retire

off my fo when when I gethome, I put my play hat on
the um. So what's So whatis the big picture for you? I
know you said you want to kickup, but I think there's probably business
wise and album. I mean,where do you because you got this big
moment right now in this big songlike, So, this's this is what

(09:13):
I This is what I try toI try to ask because um, I
never really I've never really been toengage with music like I just make it
for my peace and for my sinity. Um, it was my coping mechanism,
you know, Like what you dois probably your coping mechanism. It's
what you love to do. Um. I try to ask, like,
you know, who was like generational, like who was big for like y'all

(09:35):
generation? Like who's who's big foryour generation? What do you mean?
Like like who who's that artist?Who's that guy of your generation? Like
as far as like, um,the hip hop or R and B side,
you mean me personally? Yeah,I mean I think I've been I've
seen many generations. Yeah, Iwatched the Biggie, I watched Big I
watched Jove, you know you I'veseen the view. I've seen the view.

(10:00):
That's what I'm saying. I've seena lot of people say I'm gonna
retire after a few days, andthen they fall in love and they find
different ways to kind of still doit. But even like people like Lil
Wayne or you know, they stillI think, Um, it's very few
people who see it right now,and it's something that you I'm big on.

(10:24):
I feel like dreamer people born tohave dreams. Everybody got dreams when
they're born. Yeah, but believersis built. You gotta build believers.
You gotta make people believers. Andmy thing is, Um, I feel
like I'm gonna be a household nameand and and three four or five years
from now, we're gonna be sittinghere and like everybody's gonna know who TUSI

(10:46):
is. Right now, It's likeit's easy to just say, but three
four or five years from now,I could look back and be like I
told y'all, I can't wait todo that. I hope I'm still here.
If I'm still here, we doanother interview, but to pull up
the clip, we're here. Yeah, we're gonna do it. What's that?
Five years? So who's that?Who's your for you? Who else?
I feel like, Um, Ifeel like I don't know. I

(11:07):
feel like it's Drake Drake yeah,and probably like um probably like about a
year or two ago. UM,I used to tell people, I feel
like I'm like, I'm kind oflike the Drake of this generation. Um,
because I'm twenty three, you know, so I got some time.
But UM, I don't know.I feel like my mom is it.

(11:28):
Yeah, it kind of kind ofjust Drake from me, I don't know.
I feel like Drake is Drake islike at the top of the game
for for I guess you would saylike the hip hop slash R and B
side, because Drake don't gotta lane, you know. He we we've seen
Drake do everything. He's just Drake. Yeah. Yeah. And what I
mean by and what I what Imean by that is like when I say
I'm a drink Drake of this generation, I just feel like, um,

(11:50):
it's not really many artists that's uh, multi diverse as me. Um.
Outside of that, just the inclinelike we've been on. We've been on
a slow, steady incline, likeit's just going up and up and up
and up and up. Um.As far as like with the music we
may, I'm not saying we makethe type of music, the same type
music, or not saying I wantto be like him. But are you

(12:11):
talking about the spot? The spotthat's it that's all trying to take.
You're trying to take Drake down andtake a spot. No, not trying
to but yeah, I mean it'sgonna coming time where but if if it
must happen, you know, wehad we had Jordans, we got Lebron,
I mean, or we had Kobe, or we had you know,

(12:33):
it was a few people speaking ofnames and Drake. Do you ever get
well maybe maybe not now, butwas there ever a Tulsi confusion? Yeah,
all the time. It still happens. Yeah. Well, um,
have you met the other Tulsi?Yeah? Yeah, Okay? Is he
happy you're here? Does it botherhim? Because I think he happy?
Because if I'm him, we justwe actually just spoke his sister. Um,

(12:56):
mind you, I'm a big fanof him, like now he's the
Yeah, he loves what he does. Yeah, he loves me and his
own person. That's that's That's whatI'm big on, people being their own
their own person. Like whatever you'redoing when you got at succeed in it,
you know, excelling it. That'sthat's what you love to do.
Why you don't do it? Tusitusi something TikTok? Right, we should

(13:18):
do something tu versus TikTok. Immediatelylisten, I'm I'm let me be judge.
Let me judge it a little Jessicaover there, Yeah, I mean
head of my market and she comeon, she sending it in the group
chat right now we are. Yeah, I'm gonna definitely jump on that.
But yeah, he just he actuallyjust hit me up. His sister bought

(13:39):
some of my merch. Oh um, yeah, yeah he was. He
was letting me know, shout outto him. But early on, nobody
confused John right, there was Yeah, all the time that was like that
was like, oh yeah, Ilove TUSI slide and I'm like, nah,
I'm not not me, that's notme. Or sometimes I'll just be
like noah, things bro, Butyou know that's funny. No, not
that too. The same thing isprobably happening to him. Yeah, he's

(14:03):
you know what I mean himself Roblike yo your songs. Yeah, he's
probably appreciate mean a lot. Imean, I think he makes beats.
Though I think he makes beats.Well, there's even more reason. Come
on, it's funny. We mightgotta we might gotta get a collab.
Man. It's a whole bunch ofbabies. It's okay, it's a whole
bunch of babies. Like yeah,so like when you say baby, if
people be like which your baby,it could be stunner babies wor wor word.

(14:28):
So yeah, I think spell itdifferent. Yeah, a little bit.
And then the government name is alsonot easy to say. No,
not at all. Spell no,not at all. People say it wrong,
it's it's not your Yeah, that'sa good name. It's cool.
You don't like it. Not ascool as Angie Martinez. Oh stop,
Angie Martine is very easy to say. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

(14:50):
Yeah. But then then sometimes Iwish I didn't use my government why because
if I'm like calling a place tomake it like, yeah, there's no
hiding from it's always which is alwaysgreat. People show love. So I
was like, but every now andthen, what's your secret name? Like,
oh, if I tell you that'snot a secret name, no more.

They never know, Eric. Youcame out up with this out of nowhere,
yes on my own type thing,and I don't know who where it

thing I thought of, What isit? I'm gonna immediately regret this.

your fan happens to be in thelobby of the hotel. I mean

(17:03):
you not know Eric, don't meanyou don't know Eric. But seeing one
of my songs right now, myfan, you would know I'm not here,
my fan, you would know,you would know I'm Eric Bellinger.
He's like, he's not Eric.Yes I am. They're lying, so
you don't know what's going on.That's what I'm saying. Come on,
I gotta have you, gotta havean alter ego. Oh you just came
in here. Now, I gottwenty minutes worth of work to do to
change your maship. Listen, it'sthe best best work of your life,

(17:26):
best work of your life. Ubereats uber that you're gonna need that for
a long time. Okay, fine, you and Kai have a good relationship.
We've seen all these tiktoks you've beendoing? How do you guys know
each other? It's good. It'sgood though, because you know he's a
young black dude and he hit numberone. What is what is the connection?
What is the connection with you andKai? Oh no, that's just
my boy. I mean why thepeople connect you out together? Because you
make noah? Because the live streamwe were silly together. Yeah, I

(17:49):
mean I guess they say we're silly. I got I got a lot of
personality, but I only got alot of personality around certain people. Like
he brings your personality, you bringmy personality out to it the same?
Yeah, yeah, right right.But if it was anybody else, I
probably would be here like yes reallyyeah an interview though yet I can't imagine
no, you know like that.But I'm laid back though I probably wouldn't

(18:10):
be talking as much. So howdo you get to do a live stream
with somebody? But how do youeven know him? Um? I mean
we we've been cool for a while. We had did a few videos,
we had we had just I thinkhe reached out to me, ye ill
reached out. I think he reachedout to me one day, um and
just from there we've been cool,like but shout out to him. I
don't. I don't if I findit fascinating the way people couldn't kind of

(18:30):
like yeah, it's a whole differentworld, Like it's a whole different world.
Twitch is a whole different world.But he, I mean, the
number one Twitch streamer in the worldright now, you know, So is
that what he is? Is that? Is that an official? Like yeah
yeah yeah yeah, so like that'swhy it's it's major. Yeah, it's
major. Yeah. So he callsand was like, yo, let's do
something, and you're like, yeah, I'm near that. Yeah, yeah,

(18:52):
we probably like twenty one, twentytwo? What is the twitch?
What is that is the twitch?Bread? Crazy? Um? Did you
did he teach you anything about thatworld, that space, that business nor
if it's crazy? Because um,like I don't think they'd be really giving
him what he deserved, like hedid for the amount of numbers and stream
for thirty days, like thirty daysone time, like without cutting the stream

(19:15):
off at all, went to sleepon on stream, like showered down stream
like like all that, like likefor thirty days straight, and he generated
probably like ten million dollars. Theysaid on to Twitch and only probably got
like twenty percent of it. Shit, yeah, and then who gets the
rest of that? Twitch? Yeah, right, is right? Twitch gets

(19:37):
the rest of that? How doyou know? Is that a real number?
Like the generated ten million? That'swhat That's what I've seen in an
article, So I don't know howtrue it is, but I mean thirty
days and then as many streams,Like if if that streaming world is like
this streaming world, then that's yeah, that might be true. That's but
I don't know if that's what theygave him for if they If it is,

(19:57):
he's not getting what he deserved.Are you educated in that space?
Because you seem like you play withthat space a lot too, like you
do that stuff you want TikTok doinglittle challenges that I'll do everything I'm I'm
engaged in. Is that for funor is that for business? Or both?
Am I trying not to get tooengaged in it? But it's for
business, um, because at theend of the day, I need to
I don't want to be one ofthose uh, I don't want to be

(20:19):
one of those artists that's loss LikeI need to know where everything is going,
what I'm doing with everything, andyou know, where everybody's at,
where everybody at. Yeah, youknow, so that's the biggest thing staying
engaged because TikTok wasn't as hot asit is today, you know, when
it's been around for a minute.They used to be Instagram, and then
after Instagram it was Twitter, andthen after Twitter it was TikTok and I

(20:41):
it was like TikTok and Twitter.So you know, that's the hot thing
and whatever the next hot thing is. If we like that, we're gonna
jump on it too, and we'rejust gonna keep going. Clearly, you're
about your business. Oh yeah,most definitely. Yo about how certain on
the series? How are you dealingwith this? Like because you're like famous
now right, Like you're dealing withfame now. You have like four over

(21:03):
four million followers I think on Instagramit's a lot of people who know your
face, know who you are.I love it is anything weird? Is
it anything you have to change?Or like yes? Like what yes?
Um like not put like real addresses? Like you know, it's a bunch
of stuff. But you gotta bea little careful. You gotta be a
little careful for every hundred thousand peoplethat love you there's a couple of people

(21:26):
that are just yeah, that's weirdfor the most part. You know,
we we we man. We spreada positive message and we love women man,
you know, and and and fellaslove women too, So like,
how could you hate on that?Don't don't hate on that? I mean
you're acting crazy. We got somebodyfor you, you know, you right
there, just you just still haveto be filming. But people like running

(21:49):
up on you in places? Canyou still do you still have normal?
Like? Are you moving around normal? Oh? No, I ain't moving
around normal or not? I keepbit quick with me now, bit quick
in the cut? No quickest?No, who is that? That's what
I'm saying. That's a good thing. Okay, that's silent. You know,
nobody needs to know who he is. But you could go to the
no, to the mall, tothe supermar, to the supermarket. No,

(22:11):
that's the I won't lie the mostthe worst place for you. That's
probably the last place I go.Okay, yeah, I'm not going to
the mall supermarket. Yeah, Igo to the supermarket, no problem,
not no problem. Okay, cornerstorable there guy, Yeah fine, Na,
No, No, it's very minimum, Like I'm i at least got

I at least got maybe two securityguards with me at also even if you're
like dressed like low key in thecut, like like I got security with
me, like I'm chilling right now, I got security with me always,
like I'm any being careful, Yeah, because I got a sign. What
about social media? What about navigatingall that and having fame and all that?
Is that? Really I don't reallypay attention to social media. I've

(22:55):
come to realize people aren't the samepeople with in reality, social media is
just people's alter ego. Yeah,representation. Yeah, it's just not always
the best side either. Yeah,it's not the best side. You know,
people don't people that's not really Peopleare nice to you most part,
right, yeah people. I know. So they told you you had a
dad bot that was foul. Yeahright, that's crazy. But then I
had to look in the mirror andI had to you know, I'm a
realist. I'm like, all right, I'm getting don't I'm getting tell the

(23:19):
story feels so like I don't lie. I used to be a little cut
up, Like I used to havea little like six pag and like all
that, and the girls used tolike you know, but they still like
the dad bought a little bit,you can't have it. I'm not feeling
