Baby — a release she calls her “actual baby.” She opens up about overcoming setbacks, how ayahuasca changed her life, working with legends like Havoc from Mob Deep, connecting with fellow lyricists Mozzy, Coyote, Murkemz and why her commanding voice cuts through every track she’s on.

On this Home Grown conversation Dazy explains 
  • Why she calls The L.A. Baby her “actual baby” and what it took to deliver it.
  • How ayahuasca helped her heal childhood trauma, embrace sobriety, and believe in her gift.
  • Discovering music through chance studio sessions while still running her salon (The Dazy Cut).
  • The story behind Havoc of Mobb Deepfinding her music and blessing her first project.
  • How Mozzy jumped on board after hearing her unapologetically “press play.”
  • Performing at Rhymefest and in front of Sway on The Wake Up Show.
  • Building a career with no industry co-signs, just courage and consistency.
Dazy Lyn is cementing herself as one of LA’s most important new voices — and The L.A. Baby proves she’s here to stay.

There were so many little baby obstacles when it came
to this release that was really frustrating for me, Like
I have to just keep it a thousand and like
it kept getting pushed back, pushed back, and I was
there was some point, you know where I was like
I never give up. I never give up, right, But
I was just feeling defeated, you know, and I was

(01:10):
just like fuck, like why why is why is things

day that it came out, I swear I was so
much nicer to everybody. I was on edge for a minute.
I'm not gonna lie to you for like four months,
I want to say, just on edge, constantly having something

So it was like any little thing I just kind of.

You know, who are you looking forward to? Who are

A lot of circles, and a lot of people have
great things to say about you on and off the mic.

Daisy Land is because to some people, you just popped
up out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Too, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (02:16):
But I sure and I want to know your story,
because even at your release party or you're listening, you
talked about just having this neck, and even in the
beginning of the project you kind.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Of reference that, like YO get his music a try so.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Talk about wanting to do that, you know, being inspired
by hip hop first and foremost. But what made you say,
all right, you know, I think I got what it
takes to turn on the mic and do my thing.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
I mean, honestly, I have to give all the credit
to ayahuasca. I talked about ayahuasca all the time because
I just that was something that really saved me.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Now for the people that don't have any clue what
that is, break down what ayahuasca is and what led
you to even want to do that.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I was having a very dark moment once again in
my life. I feel like I've been plagued by dark
moments throughout life, just like a lot of us, you know.
And there was a moment that I was about to
turn thirty years old and I was just like, I
can't believe I'm here again in this mindset. You know,
I can understand being in that mindset when I'm struggling,

(03:22):
as you know, like growing up as a teenager in
my early twenties. I get that, you know, because it's
likerugg when you're financially struggling too, when you're emotionally struggling, well,
all these things are just against you. It's such a
natural feeling to feel depressed. But at this moment I
was falling. I already had my salon where I was

(03:44):
doing hair. I had been a hairstylist for at least
five years probably I was doing exceptionally well. I was
the first curly hair specialist in LA and I was
booked for months. When I tell you that, I if
I had my books open all year, I would have

(04:05):
every single appointment booked up for that year. Yes, at
that moment, it was insane, the amount of clients or
the amount of volume of people that were looking for
me insane. But I was going through a very dark
time and I couldn't understand it. I was just like,
what's the problem now, you know, Like, now we're not

(04:27):
worrying about what we're gonna eat. We can buy shoes now,
we can yes, you know, like I'm chilling. You know,
I don't have to worry, Like I eat whatever the
fuck I want to eat. You know, I buy for
my friends too, you know, like before my friends used
to take me out to eat, you know, and they'd
be covering my tab and now it's like, oh, you know,

(04:48):
I got it, I got it right. And when I
was back in that dark place, I'm like, oh, yeah, no,
I need something, because it was it was really hard
for me to just wake up and live life, like
I was going to work, and you know, there was
a situation going on with my mom at the moment
that I just it brought me right back to me

(05:10):
being this little girl, the adolescent daisy, the you know,
just dealing with all that bullshit again. You know. So
it really brought me out of this happy place. And
I was like, yeah, I need help. So I had
heard about ayahuasca.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
I was gonna say, did you was it?

Speaker 3 (05:29):
I had heard about it?

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Referred to you or like.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
It was when I was twenty four years old or
twenty three. I had this little boyfriend and he told
me about it and he said, we got to go
and do ayahuasca. So was that? And he was like, Oh,
we go to the jungle and we drink this tea
and we have this like spiritual experience and awakening, and
you know, he explained, you know the stuff that it
does to you. And if there's something about me that

(05:55):
people need to know is I'm more on the spiritual
side than I am on the side. Since I was
a little girl, I've always been on that side.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
I almost introduced you as like part time rapper, part
time dog whisper or like spirit like.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yeah, like, I definitely have always been on that side.
Like the connection has is undeniable. I've always felt a
presence with me since I was a little girl. I've
always had this voice that's been with me too, that
I now know as the voice of like it's like
the higher self, right, And that's where a lot of

(06:35):
my psychic abilities kind of come from, because I don't
ignore that voice. You know, anytime she's talking, I'm like,
all right, what's.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
You gotta say?

Speaker 3 (06:46):
You know. So when he told me that, I was like, immediately, yes,
we're going we break up within six months, you know,
and some somewhere down the.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Line, so you guys didn't do it. He just interested.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
So he just got and see that's the beauty of life.
A lot of the times we just come across somebody
for a moment, just so that we can receive that download. Wow,
And maybe it's not important at that moment, but down
the line, it's gonna spark something in you again, you know,
when you're ready, right, Because people have always told me

(07:20):
that ayahuasca calls you, and I definitely felt that call.
Really yeah. So what was crazy is there was this
influencer who was in I don't know where she was at,
like Columbia or something. She was in some foreign country
and she comes to LA and I had been following
her for a while and she was on her spiritual stuff,

(07:42):
you know, working with herbs and doing certain things. And
I was like, oh, I like that. So I start
following her. I find out she's in LA and I
sent her a message and I'm like, hey, girl, like,
I specialize in curly hair, you know, if you want
to come in. She had super super curly hair, and
luckily she said yes. She's like, yeah, you know, I've
been eating a haircut. She trusted me. She comes in.

(08:03):
We get to talking and she's like, in two weeks,
I'm leaving to the jungle. I'm leaving to Peru to duayahuasca.
And I was like, wait a minute, I've heard of this.
And I was like I don't mean to be too forward,
but can I come with you? And she was like yeah,
She's like there's a whole group of us coming, you
can come. And remember I'm balling at this time. So

(08:24):
I was like easy, Like I'm closing, I'm closing my books,
you know, and we're booking this flight. And I was
out in Peru whenin two weeks right before my birthday.
I think I was there the week of my birthday.
So my birthday is July fourteenth, so I'm pretty sure
I was there during that week celebrating my thirtieth birthday.

(08:45):
And I mean, the amount of wisdom and knowledge that
I received is life changing. You know. She made me sober.
That was one of the things I healed a lot
of childhood stuff. Healing is like like this up and down, right,

(09:08):
So it's like you think you're healed, and then no,
the fuck you're not. You're triggered, you know. Yeah, yeah,
but you know there's a there's a new understanding, there's
I perceive things differently, so you know, it's okay. So
I go and I sit with ayahuasca for an entire week. Right,

(09:30):
It's three ceremonies within that week and I'm in the jungle.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
You don't know nobody out there, you know.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
I took a friend with me. I took a friend
with me, but still, yeah, luckily she went with me,
because I feel like I would have been terrified if
I went by myself. But even with her, like I
had we I had I think I had just cut
her hair. And then I told her. I was like,
I'm gonna go, and she's like, can I come? And
I was like, bitch, yeah, let's go. It's on me y,

(10:00):
you know. So we ended up going out there together.
And like, it's insane how they they call them shamans, right,
but they're also they're actually called like medicine men. Shamans
is like the European term, so they don't like that,
got it, But you know, my medicine man. He works

(10:21):
with the jungle to protect you because when you're drinking ayahuasca,
you're very vulnerable. Your spirit is very vulnerable, and there
are definitely evil spirits that take advantage of that and
try to, you know, get into your vessel. And it's
insane how he, through prayer links up with the spirit

(10:45):
of the river that was right next to us, the
spirit of the trees, the spirit with the stars, with
the animals, and everyone's protecting you and you're on sacred
grounds and it's just like, do.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Not leave this circle? And again, pardon my ignorance, is
I ask? Yeah? I only I know two.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
People who have done it, a couple of a friend
of mine that that's a couple, and they talked.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
About their experience.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
But even now, just like as you're talking about the experience,
you said, so, so a week that you went out
there is.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
It ups and downs of this like.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
You you you come into and the only way, the
only way I can compare it is to like being
high or drunk. So it's like this, this these moments,
is it the entire time you're you're you on this
or how does that work in comparison?

Speaker 3 (11:36):
What I can tell you right now is, no matter
how I.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
Explain it, it's not going to be the Simes.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
You are never like you are never going to be
prepared for that ship.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
So let me ask you this. Did you know it
was a week?

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Are you aware of time?

Speaker 3 (11:50):
I mean, when I'm under the influence of ayahuasca, Hell no?

Speaker 1 (11:55):
And how long?

Speaker 3 (11:55):
It was like an eternity? It felt like a lifetime.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Gotcha, how long does it last? Though?

Speaker 3 (12:00):
It depends my first ceremony, I was in it four hours,
you know, and it was terrifying, terrifying. I tapped out.
I was like, fuck this, I'm not doing this again.
And I spent the entire day The following the next day,
I spent the entire day telling everybody fuck.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
That I ain't doing it, yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Said, And I said, I'm gonna sit this one out,
you know. And everyone was like, are you sure you
want to do that, like, you know, trying to hit
me my way into it, you know, and I'm just experience. Yeah. Yeah.
A lot of them it was their first. But like
when I tell you, like I don't know other people's lives, right,

(12:42):
but like there's so much darkness in mind, yeah, and
like that comes from generations. Like it's not just me,
you know what I mean. I was inherited. I inherited
all this darkness. So I've only known that since I
have memory too three years old, I've known very dark shit.

(13:04):
And I'm like, this was too much. It was unbearable.
There was a moment where I thought I was dying.
They had me sign a waiver and in that trip
I'm literally like, that's why they had you, because you're dying,
Like you're about to die, man, Like nobody knows you're
out here because I had only told my mom. I

(13:26):
didn't tell my dad what I was doing out there,
you know, And like my dad's like the parents.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Right, he would have stopped that ass, Like, no, I.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Don't think so. But like I was just a little
like I've always just been very secretive. I've always just
been very secretive. And it's just like I didn't know
how to explain that, gotcha, you know. But yeah, you know,
I went out there the next day. I was like,
absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
I was gonna say. I wanted to get to that point.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
What made you say, okay, let's try it again.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Listen, twenty minutes before ceremony, my stomach is in shambles,
and I'm sitting there talking to myself, and I was like,
you really paid all that money, you really traveled over
here for twenty four hours to sit it out. And
I was like, you got work to do, And I
said you was born for this, like you're here for

(14:16):
a reason, you know. And I was just going back
and forth, back and forth, and I was like all right,
and I was like, I've never prayed like this, but
let me attempt, you know. And I said, whoever's with me,
you know, on the other side, I need you to
show up for me the way that I would show
up for my kid, you know. And I said, I

(14:40):
don't have kids, but if you know me the way
that I think you know me, you know what I
would do for my kids. So I need you to
show up in that same way because I am scared,
you know. And I was like I and I kept saying,
I am loved, I am protected, and I am safe.
I kept saying that over and over again. I was
sitting there praying this like glowing beetle out of nowhere

(15:05):
just comes and it's like in my face, just flying
around me. And at that moment, I was like, I
hear you, so I'm going in. And I went in.
And this experience was totally different. Now that first ceremony
is four hours in. I'm dying the whole time, panicking, terror, darkness,

(15:28):
just I'm running away from it. She's chasing me the
whole time, trying to get me to sit down. Right.
The second ceremony, she she took it easy on me.
I was greeted by like jaguar eyes or something like.
It's cause it's it's pitch black. It's pitch black, right, So,
like I remember when I got there, I asked my guide,

(15:49):
I said, so, do we close our eyes or keep
them open? And he just laughed. He's like, oh yeah,
he he just laughed and he was like, it don't matter.
And I was like, all right, I'll like yeah whatever.
And I'm like, dude, like whenever it gets dark, you
get used to it and then you can see your hand. No,

(16:10):
in the jungle, it's pitch black. I kept doing this.
I couldn't see anything.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
That's say, in the middle of the night.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
Yeah, because you start at like seven pm when it
gets dark, and then you go on until you go on.
The second ceremony lasted about sixteen hours for me, what
sixteen hours? This one put me to work, okay, And
I go in and like I said, she greeted me

(16:39):
with jaguar eyes, and she made me feel very comfortable,
gave me. I felt so much love. I saw all
my ancestors that are with me. I saw them all
come in like within ten minutes of feeling her, because
I could feel her in my fingertips. It's like it's
something so different where I'm like, WHOA, Like this fels different.

(17:01):
And I saw pitch black, and I saw a bunch
of white silhouettes walking towards me. And at that moment,
I received that download that I've never been alone, that
they've always been with me, and that it's not just me,
it's everybody comes with an army of people that we
do not know. And I broke down and I'm just like, yo,

(17:22):
like all this time I thought I was alone, you know,
and I'm an only child, so I feel that loneliness
to another degree. And you know, I when I saw
them come in, I was like wow, like there they came.
They showed up. Like I asked them, did you.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Did you recognize anybody that had passed on before?

Speaker 3 (17:42):
No?

Speaker 1 (17:42):
No, So this is just ancestors from you know, I
don't know who the fuck these were.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
They there was your army though, yes, got you, And
I knew at that moment that they had been there
from inception from the other side. I know them from
the other side.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
So the the you said it was three different ones, right,
so that the third ceremony was it as intense as.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
The first one.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Or was it a balance between the first and the
second one or how that will play out?

Speaker 3 (18:07):
Man, the third one, she made me go sober. I've
been an alcoholic for a very long time. I started
at fourteen years old. It was the love of my life. Yeah,
I've been sober before. I at twenty four years old.
I did quit the first time cold Turkey because of
something that happened, and I was cleaned three and a
half years. But after those three and a half years,

(18:29):
I had that relapse and then I was right back in,
you know, And yeah, she made me go sober in
that third ceremony.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
So was it something that was said to you, with
something that you experienced? What made you say?

Speaker 3 (18:42):
It made me incredibly drunk? She's so like pretty much
because after that second ceremony, Like, the thing with that
second ceremony is she made me feel so powerful. She
made me trust her, gotcha, and she made me love
what she was showing me. She I mean, I was
just as big as her. She was showing me my

(19:04):
potential and I was like, wow, this is incredible and
she was like, oh, like do you like it was
like my Aladdin moment where he's where he's like do
you trust me, And I was like, yes, gotcha, and
I give her my hand and she drops me and
I go into this hell hole.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
I'm sorry. This is the third go round. Now this
is the second one.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
Okay, so this is that's the sixteen hours one where
I just I was in shambles. Things that I was
learning about my family, about my lineage, about myself, things
that I was confronting because a lot of the times
we're so scared of our own truths that we ignore them.

(19:46):
We drink, we go out, we have so many distractions
because we cannot face them. It makes us sick, you know.
And for a long time I was doing that and
I didn't even realize it, you know. And when these
truths are in your face, you're just like leave me alone. Stop, stop,
you know, You're like running away, running away, and she
just will not let you. Like it's like it's really

(20:10):
crazy because every time you close the door, you turn
around and there's another one, you know, and it's like
and you can't explain what you're looking at. You're not
in this realm, yeah yeah, And you're being shown sacred
geometry and sacred symbols from like Egypt, and shit, you
know what I mean, Like it's it's just like you're
being shown like different lives that you've lived. Like it's

(20:32):
just in saying you're talking to people that have passed on.
There was a few people that had passed on that
did come, you know, and I did have a conversation,
but it's just it it's so like mystical. It's straight
out of a movie, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
What's funny is that the.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
Couple that told me about it their experience and there
was a lot of others like you're saying this, it
was a whole situation.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
But the one thing that I took away from their
experience was that.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
He was there to protect her this whole time, and
they had traveled throughout lifetime together and they came back
in this lifetime together, and the whole thing was like,
no matter where we're gonna be, we're gonna always be together.
But now we're experience we finally made it together in
this lifetime and I'll see you again, but we're experiencing

(21:27):
this together. And it goes to speak on how their
their relationship and it's just an amazing thing. But with
that comes a lot of it's you know, you have to.
It's hard to look in the mirror. It's hard to
like put.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Down that wall.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
So as you're explaining that, there may be some people
that's listening and watching this, it's like, what the fuck
is she talking about?

Speaker 1 (21:46):
But I, like, I understand everything. It's not for everything.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
There's a lot of people I look at me like
I'm crazy and I don't give a fuck. I'm just
like you, you so damn lost, like I don't care.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
It's wild to think about that type of experience because again,
I'm one of the reasons why me and you bond
because we've talked about sobriety, right, And the one thing
I think I think about my experiences of you know,
being intoxicated, like I don't smoke like that. That's not
my thing, never been blue with my jam because I
have crazy panics and it's crazy. So it's like when

(22:23):
I hear that, I'm like, oh nah, I wouldn't want
to experience nothing like that. But at the same time,
you have to, you know, kind of face your fears
and figured it out.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
It's not something I have said I would do or
not do.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
But it's just always interesting to hear the experiences of
people when they talk about it.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
You know what I feel Like, if you hear something
like this and it immediately calls you like, yo, I
need to experience some shit like that, then it's for
you because that's your role in this life. But if
you're immediately like hell no, hell no, it's not for you.
You know, it's like you're meant to speak to someone

(23:00):
like me and receive that download. Like what I've learned
is throughout just generations, right, Like there has always been
a seer in the village. Right, Like when you look
at at like Pocahontas or some shit, right like, there's
an elder there who works with herbs. He can see

(23:24):
the future, he can you know what I mean. Like,
there's always someone in the village that's meant for that.
And I know in my heart that that's what I'm
meant for. I've always known that, you know. And speaking
of Pocahontas Willow Tree, I believe it's ayahuasca. Grandmother Willow.
I believe is ayahuasca. Just like in Avatar, that tree,

(23:46):
that tree that they be connecting, I believe that's also ayahuasca.
They've never said it, but when I see it and
I see what the tree does.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
I'm like, huh, did been there done?

Speaker 2 (23:57):
That's that's interesting that you've gone through that, that experience, man,
it's it's brought you to a point where there's such
a sense of clarity and genuineness about you that I
feel like a lot of people get from you.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Now.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Obviously, everybody has their stories and you you know, there
was a lot of trauma from day one and you
know all that.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
But anytime I feel like any conversations.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
We've had, it's always just been such a genuine conversation,
such a like I don't know, just down.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
Just down or super super.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
It's hard to explain the words, but it's like you
possessed that real, recognized real, and I feel like that
comes across in the music as well.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
You know what I mean. I do want to talk about.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
The experience of making music because you said you were successful,
I mean, things were popping off.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
You got to get to this moment. So how does
that lead you to say, you know what, Yeah, music
is going to be the thing I want. I want
to wrap you.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
So what's crazy is I ended up in a building
that was a whole music studio building that I didn't
even know about So when I got my studio to
do hair, it's because I had a friend that was
tattooing in that building. He had his own private studio.
You know. I met a few people there, and I
was comfortable in that building, so I was like, I'm

(25:17):
gonna get a studio in here. So I go and
I start working in that studio, and like I said,
I had my little relapse after those three and a
half years. So when I would go out after working
and i'd be at bars, I'd come back two three
in the morning, lit through the hallways and i'd find somebody.
I'd be like, what the fuck.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Are you doing?

Speaker 3 (25:38):
And they'd be like, oh, well, we're working on music.
And I'd say, oh, well, can I go inside and
check it out? And they're like yeah. So I was
doing that for a few months, where I would pull
up and I would sit in their studio sessions, just
drunk and shit, minding my business, just and out of nowhere.
One day, I remember I was in a studio session.
There was at least like ten people in there, and

(25:59):
I was like, let me in there. I was like,
I was like, I want to show you something. And
then I got in the booth and I wrapped, and
I just you know, when you're in the booth, you
can't hear anything. So when I went outside, everyone was
like what the fuck was that? And I was like, Oh,
it's just something I do.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
Little light work.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Yeah, you know. I was like, it's just a little something,
you know. And they were like, no, like what the
hell was that? You know, that's not a little something,
you know, And and I just kept showing up. That's
all I kept doing. I kept showing up and hanging
out because I was just hanging out.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
But you've got okay, but you were you were at
least toyed around with music or like wrap it to
yourself prior today.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yes, But because I had this other little boyfriend I
was hanging out with when I was in my early twenties,
and him and his friends used to freestyle in the car.
When we would be drinking and smoking and doing all.
They used to pick me up and just like spoil
me with drinks, and like I'd be sitting there just

(27:01):
having so much fun with them while they were freestyling,
and they'd always be like, oh, come on, like get in,
we know you got it. And I was like no, no, no,
I take myself too seriously to freestyle because if I
say some dumb shit, I can't take it back, you know,
and then everyone's gonna know I was saying some dumb shit.
So I'm like, no, I'm not gonna do that. So
what happened was, after all those freestyle sessions, one day,

(27:25):
I go home and I pulled up a beat. It
was on my block that that is it? Is it
scarface or ghost face? I forget which one? Scarface, Yeah,
my block. So I pull that beat up and I
start writing to it, and I recorded myself and I
sent it to the dude and he was like, no way.

(27:47):
He's like, no way. That sounds so good and he's
such a liar because it was so trash. It was
so trash.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
You still have that, Yes, I would love to hear that.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
I would love to hear I would love to hear
it in comparison to what what Daisy Lynn sounds like,
only because every time.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Whenever you're on.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
The song, right it and I can imagine this is
probably what they heard in the studio session.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
You had this commanding voice.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
And I've said this on when I was doing live
and direct, and I would play your music. It's like, Yo,
your voice cuts through to the point where if somebody's
talking to you, they don't realize, Like it's like, wait,
is it two different people, but it's the same.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
You can tell it's the same person.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
But it's like, Yo, you have this commanding tone about you,
and it sounds like.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
You've you've done this before, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
So it's like that's the that's what what people get
when they first hear you.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
That voice was not that voice.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
Okay, so it's a difference.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
This voice has evolved at least six different times, and
I got the proof. It's all in my laptop. But
I'm not showing.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
I gotta hear some type of I gotta yeah, I
gotta hear a reference track.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
I gotta figure it out because I do think that
they should be released. But I'm just so embarrassed because
I'm like, oh my god, I sound so different.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
I'm not saying release it. I just want to hear
it for myself.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll talk. Yeah, But like I just
I can't believe that they were saying those things because
when I hear it now, I'm like, oh, they were
lying to me. They were lying to me back.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Do you think that they were really lying or do
you do you think that you just evolved from that
sound to what you sound like now.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
I think that they were just impressed with like the
word play maybe you know what I mean. I think
that that's what it was, because the voice was definitely
the voices.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
Nokay, so but with the bars there.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Though, Yeah, I guess so, I guess a little bit.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
I think you're just being too hard on yourself. I
get it, but I think that there were if they
said that, there was a reason why. And what I'm
saying is that that's the reaction.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
I don't always tell people when they're whack like that
it's tight and I'm like, oh, that was whack, you know,
So I don't know. I'm a little guilty about that. So,
you know, I was like, so basically, even though they
eventually went away from my life, I continue to do
that throughout the years. I would just be home drinking

(30:25):
and I would write and I would record. I would
memorize it and record myself on my laptop.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
And like, but were you were you taking it serious
at that moment? It was just like I'm just having fun.
It was just where did you get a mic from?
Did you just go to Best Buy and grab a
mic or.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
You just recorded that.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
I never I never got a mic. I was just
recording on the laptop and like recording myself.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
On on my phone, you know.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
And like literally it was just like something that I
would show people when I was drunk, Like when I
would be going out with somebody and then they were
they were they were driving me home. I would be like,
can I put this instrumental? You know? And I would
do it for them throughout the years, you know. So
it was like and they would all say the same ship,
Oh that was dope, that was dope, and I'd be

(31:10):
like all right, you know, like I'll just I'll take it,
you know. But when I got in the booth, when
I started doing hairstyling, when I was with those people,
and they were like they kept telling me like you
should you should go for it, you should go for it, right,
I was like, yeah, I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know right. And I go into ayahuasca and

(31:32):
during that second ceremony, I asked her. I was asking
her all kinds of questions, and I said, so, what
do you think about music, and she just kind of
stick quiet. She didn't say anything, and you know, then
she started infiltrating my mind with thoughts and it was like,
your friends don't actually think that you're dope, like they

(31:54):
they they're just lying to you. Right. There was all
this negative stuff and just rooted in doubt. Right. So
I'm sitting there for twenty twenty five minutes just like
feeling so bad, feeling so sorry for myself, and I'm
sitting there, I'm like, why would they why would they
lie to me? You know? And I was like, you know,
and I was feeling bad, feeling bad, feeling dumb. And

(32:15):
then out of nowhere, I said, man, what are you
talking about? And I was like I'm dope. And I
was like, you're not even over there. I'm like you
all the way out here, Like I was like, you're
not even with yeah. Yeah, I was like, you're not
even in la like you know. And then I was
like no, I was like, I don't care what you're
talking about. I'm dope and I know I'm dope. And

(32:35):
when I'm reflecting on that, I'm like, I think she
was testing me. I think she was trying to see
if I even believed in myself or not right, because
the moment I started telling her that, she kind of like,
she kind of went like this, and then poof put
me on a huge stage. It felt like Staple Center

(32:55):
because you know, I used to wear guess so I've
seen that a million times, you know, but this time
I'm the one on stage. It's empty, and it's a
huge venue and all these lights, blinding lights are on me,
and she was like, you could. She's like, but what
are you gonna say? And what are you gonna do?
She's like, are you gonna speak life into people? Or

(33:18):
are you just gonna keep messing up more? And that's
all she said. She said, you could, you know, And
that's what she left me with.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Damn.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
So through all the feelings that I went through in
that ceremony, I released a lot of shame. I released
the fear of being perceived like I just didn't care.
Like to me, it was just like, it don't matter
what someone thinks of me, Like I know who I am,
you know, And at that moment, I just knew that

(33:52):
this experience, this life that we experience is just a dream.
And I was like, yo, we literally take this shit
so seriously, we're literally like everything is the end of
the world. Every time we go through something, Oh my god,
we can't handle it. We're about to die.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
Do you speak that into somebody right that hasn't had
that experience, that hasn't you know, been awakened by that,
because I mean, what you're saying is no different than
what a lot of people say. And it's like, we
only got yolo, we only got one life, like you
know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Like, but at the same time, that's.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
Still people are still clouded with that that doubt, that negativity,
or just you know, being so consumed with this.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
That's not my concern. I just say it. I just
say it, you know, and perhaps it won't resonate in
that moment, and then perhaps something will happen a few
months years down the line where it'll click I'll be like, damn,
I get what you was saying. Yeah, And that's that's
the whole purpose, you know. It's like, whenever we receive

(34:56):
the downloads, our responsibility is to say it out loud
so that other people can also get the downloads, you know.
So to me, it's none of my concern whether they
pick up on it or not. It on. It don't
matter to me. I don't give a shit, you know
what I mean. But yeah, like I dropped that fear

(35:20):
and when I came back, I was like, fuck it,
I'm gonna get a YouTube beat and I'm gonna make
a music video. Got oh my god. It was just
some random YouTube beat, but it's the song is called
I'm Crying Inside something like that, Crying Inside, and it's
on YouTube and I posted it just for fun, like

(35:42):
it wasn't even like a And mind you, I know
no rappers, nobody in the industry. I'm a full blown hairstylist.
I'm just getting my flowers in this hair shit in
the beauty world. Like I'm I'm in there. I'm getting known,
you know, because when I got in to hairstyling, I
didn't know anybody. So it's like high school all over again.

(36:03):
I got to Fairfax not knowing anybody. I knew six people.
I left prom Queen and I love to say that
that's one of my greatest accomplishments. I don't give a fuck.
You want prom Queen at Fairfax? Come on, you know.
So it's the same ship. I get into the hair
thing and I'm starting over I don't know nobody. I

(36:25):
don't have a reputation, you know, and I gotta start over. Boom, Okay,
I start to build little by little. Then I go
into this rap shit. I don't know nobody. But the
few people that I didn't know that were doing some
rap shit, they were my connections. They were my first

(36:45):
connections getting in, you know, and that was a blessing.
You know, I needed them, you know. They every single
person that I that I've met has opened the door
for me, you know. So my team may be very small,
you know, it was just me for a long time.
But I definitely didn't do it alone. There was a

(37:06):
lot of people that helped me. You know. You're one
of those people as well. You know what I'm saying.
So it's like, I don't do it alone. It's through
God and the network, you know. So yeah, it's it's
it's been crazy how it's it's all unfolding because I
didn't I didn't know anything. Like I said, I was
stuck in the nineties. I've been stuck in the nineties,

(37:29):
So I didn't know who was out, who was doing what.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
I was gonna say.

Speaker 2 (37:33):
So your influence comes obviously from that era. I would
like to ask this because it kind of gives me
a sense of, you know, what you were into. What
was the first purchase that you had, like hip hop,
the first outage.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
About your own money, with your own money.

Speaker 3 (37:53):
The east Siders, east Siders. Yeah, also the chronic. I
had a Mariah Kerry CD.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
Tubes right right, because that's wow.

Speaker 3 (38:11):
Yeah. No, I mean I've I've been rapped since I
was a little girl. Like this is nothing new to me,
you know what I'm saying. Like since I was a
little girl, my dad used to play a certain radio station,
save SI, you know what I'm saying, Like they would
always my dad would always play that. So you know,

(38:33):
I came up with MC and my people call me milk.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
I'm not a party.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
I feel no guilt, right, Like I knew the whole
song word for word, llll cool J songs. I mean,
I just knew everything, you know, And I was like
a jukebox, you know. So I memorized everyone's lyrics Biggies, Pox,
dre Ice, Cubesnoop like I mem I used to know

(39:00):
all their verses and I'd always be like damn, like
I wish I was at a I was at a concert.
They just passed me to mic.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
You know that you had those those thoughts early on,
like that.

Speaker 3 (39:10):
Like I'm so sick that I wasn't around for the
Smoke Tour Up and Smoke, Up and Smoke Tour. Yeah,
Like I'm so sick, Like that's where, That's where I belonged,
you know what I mean? Like when I when I
used to watch those those videos, I just chills everywhere.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Dude, I have It's so funny.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
I I've told the story a couple of times, but
I had a chance to go to Up and Smoke Tour.
My friend Run won tickets on one hundred point three
to beat She was nineteen, and then it became and
it became a hundred point because I used to work
for one hundred point three to be so she she
want tickets.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
As my junior year in high school, she gets tickets.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
And your mom didn't let you go.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
No, I wasn't tripping.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
I think the weekend that it happened was Father's Day
and I chose to spend that weekend with my dad
and I Now.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
In the moment, I'm like, damn, like what you know,
just upset about it. But after the fact, I kind
of have more.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
At the end of the day, I still wish I
would have when I'm gonna lie, but it was it
was one of those moments.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Where I'm like, what the was I don't and I
can't even tell you why. I think.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
I don't know if I was. I was forced to
go to my dad's house that weekend either way, but
after he passed, it made me appreciate that moment even more.
It's like, Yo, this is once in a lifetime moment.
I could have been there, but I chose me my
dad that weekend, and you know, it is what it is.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
I still wish I would have.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Went, but it was like, damn, like this, we could have,
we could It was a it was a it was a.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
Wild, wild bargain all the time.

Speaker 1 (40:55):
Look and then you will just I'll see you later
on Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
Tomorrow, Tomorrow's Father's Day.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
One of one.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
I mean, to this day, I still I teeter back
and forth between regretting it and appreciating it. But I'm like, dude,
that was to your point, it was once in a
lifetime freaking mom mom up and smoked to her.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
It was crazy.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
This is when girls are still flashy. Yeah, like just
like this is these are superstars. Yeah, you know what
I mean, Like that's a different era because now, even
though you know there's there's fame and stuff like that,
it's so much easier to get to that access, right,

(41:35):
you know what I mean. It's like now it's like
if you're consistent enough, you can actually you could actually
do it. You know. Back then it's like you had
to be a star. You had to be a superstar,
you know. And it's like these are people that are
fainting when they.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
See you crazy.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Ain't nobody fainting, you know, you know what I'm saying,
Like it's like, oh this wool people.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
You know, Like it's not the same at all.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
It's not.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
I want to talk about La Baby, not only because
of the name. That's the name of the project. That's
your moniker.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
I mean, you've embraced that now people that that's that's
what people know you as.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
How did this How did that name come about? And
why did you decide that to be the name of
the project.

Speaker 3 (42:18):
So honestly, I don't even know where it came from.
All I know is I said it once and it
just stuck, like I just never not said it anymore.

Speaker 2 (42:28):
To me, it's reminiscent of like t I called himself
the King of the South, and it's like everybody just
he claimed it, and everybody started doing like that's the same.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
Energy that the La Baby has.

Speaker 3 (42:40):
I mean, I am an La Baby. I've never lived anywhere.
I've never even lived in Glendale, you know what I'm saying. Like,
it's just almost straight up La Baby. And to me,
I have so much pride in that, you know, I
love to say it, you know. So when I started
saying it, it was just like a thing, you know,
And then all of a sudden and it was like,
wait a minute, just got a little ring to it,

(43:03):
you know. And when I was coming up with names
for the album, I had a few other options, right,
but I spoke to Tie about it and I was like, Ty, like,
what do you think you know? And and she was like,
let me listen to your album and I'll get back
to you with a few ideas, and one of those
was the La Baby. And when she said that, I

(43:23):
was like, bro, why did I.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
Think I said it before?

Speaker 3 (43:27):
And like, to me, it was perfect because whoever doesn't
know me, whoever doesn't know about the La Baby, now
they're associating me with that, and I was like, perfect,
we stamp it even harder, you know what I mean.
And now it's like a lot can come from that,
you know. So I was I was blessed to have tie.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
There to that's my girl, good people's man. Yeah, now
the album you got, you got a lot of folks
on the man, Saluta, you gotta Havoc on their the
legend and I love the story. We'll get into it
in a second, but you know, Havoc MASI shout out

(44:11):
to Yodi's man Markham's and say, right, so you know
this project you gotta get. You know, you got some
folks on there, man, my first your first project, folks,
your first project to have some names like that, like
certified stamped individuals, you know what I mean, from legends

(44:33):
to those that are in the city.

Speaker 1 (44:34):
That's just like, you know what I mean, putting it down.
How did you, you know, establish these relationships?

Speaker 2 (44:40):
And I want to start off with with the Havoc
one because that's just one of those things that I
feel like only you could get this ship to pop
off right, especially from listening to the stories and you know,
just just your come up.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
Of course, like when you were telling stories. I was like, duh,
it's gonna already. I already know how the story is
gonna end. But tell the people how you were able
to get half of the project. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
Well, when I started doing music, I dropped one song
called Chills. That was my very first time putting a
song out like an actual song. I got the beat right,
because when I told you, when I came back from
my Ahuasca, I was just fucking around and I picked
a YouTube beat and I did a video to it.

(45:24):
I did that twice.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (45:25):
Okay, So I did that twice and again. It was
just a hobby. But when I was getting so much
positive feedback from it, I was like, well, you know,
maybe I could give this a shot, Like why not? Okay,
let me And this was during COVID Wow. Yeah. So
like I'm in my room by myself. I purchased the
beat from Stand the Man. He's out in New York,

(45:47):
and I'm writing to it right, created the chorus. I
got footage of that too, and I get in the
booth and I put the song out. That song does
crazy numbers, and like New York, out of all places,
you know, sway ends up reaching out for me. To
go out to New York. It's my first time in
New York. I go to his platform over time and

(46:11):
I rap on there. He has no idea that I've
never wrapped in trying to anybody before my very first time.
But I never I wasn't gonna out myself. Of course,
when Sway caused you to go, yes, yeah there, I
get a flight, I'm on my way, you know I did,
I was like, hell, no, you you're not gonna tell

(46:33):
him you ain't never done this ship before. Grab your
fucking balls and go over there. And I go, and
you know, he could tell. I know, he could tell
that it was my first time, you know, and it's
it's okay, that's okay with me.

Speaker 1 (46:46):
I accept yourself.

Speaker 3 (46:47):
I accept it, you know, and it's like the time
has passed. Now I'm different, you know, So now I
could hold it together, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (46:56):
And you performed from him again with you know, with
with I saw that was pretty dope.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
Man.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
I figured.

Speaker 3 (47:03):
A full circle moment because he was my first co
sign and that was the biggest co sign I could
have ever had.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
That's what hell of it. There's people right now that
have been rapping for years that aren't able to get
the say coat sign.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
Talk about that what that did for for your confidence
early on? And again that full circle moment to kind
of be back at back on this platform and show
like you know, I'm.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
Here feeling myself. Yeah, because when I came back to
LA everyone was like, yo, what the hell? Like you
was just out there with Sway doing it, you know,
like like now it's like I told you I wasn't
fucking playing and then I come back and then just
incredible is like, oh hop on my Hunger Flow album. Yes,
of course on my Way did that too. You know.

(47:54):
It's like it's just it's really uh crazy to me
how everything happened so quickly. Right, So when I did
that song, that was one of my very first times
right like really being in the studio and learning like
studio etiquette, you know. So I'm di I wying the
fuck out of this, Like I have no guidance whatsoever.

(48:17):
So I just started writing versus to like beats that
I liked, you know, and one of those beats just
happened to be a mob deep fat because I was
heavy into mob deep in high school? Are you kidding me?
Like heavy? So I get a mob deep instrumental and

(48:39):
I recorded myself doing a video and that video did numbers,
and somehow I got to have it. I don't know
how I got to have it. Somehow I got to
have it. Out of nowhere. I have a DM and
it's Havoc with a bunch of fire emojis, and I
was like, no, no way, And I write back to him.
I'm like, bro, like you're legend. I can't believe you're

(49:01):
in here right now, you know, and like we just
here right now. Yeah, Like it was just like it
was like what, like who sent you? You know, So
we started off in that way, you know, where it
was just a DM here and there, you know what
I mean. And it was just that for a long time,
you know. But I felt like I had built some

(49:23):
type of rapport with him, even through you know, just messages.
So when I started working on this album, you know,
I told my producer Franco, I was like, Franco, I
think I could get a Havoc on this, and he
was like and I was like, yeah, I think I can.
Like I think I can, you know if I if

(49:44):
I because like I had even run into him a
few times, like I had gone to the show to
some of his shows, and when he would see me, it.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
Was like.

Speaker 3 (49:53):
Daisy, you know, yeah you know. And I was like,
I think he fucks with me, Franko, like I think
he'll say yes. And he's like, well, shit, go for it,
you know, shoot your shot, and I did. I sent
him a d M and I said, yo, like I'm
dropping my first album. It would make my whole life
if I could get a verse from you. And he
was like who you signed with? And I was like no,

(50:15):
I'm independent. Like yeah, I was like I'm one hundred
percent independent. And he was like, I got you, and
he was like, send me, send me a song, and
I was like okay, and I started working on it
and like I found this one song and I just
felt like it had him written all the way.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
So when you were saying that to your producer you
didn't even have a song together, I'm thinking you got
he's got to be He's like, oh, this kind of
sounds like.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
I was literally just sitting there and I was like,
who could I get on here? And I was like
I think because you know, I like to show out,
So I was like I gotta I gotta see who
who I can get connected with here, you know. And
I was like, I'm gonna ask him, you know, because
what's the worst that could happen?

Speaker 1 (51:04):
He says, no, no, yeah, you'd be that square one. That's
it is what it is.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
I have it to begin with, you know. So to me,
I just I have no shame to ask for things.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
You know.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
So what were the other things that you kind of
set out to do when you were putting this project out,
because again it's your debut project. What are some of
the things that you were checking out the list, Like, Yo,
I gotta I gotta have this, I gotta have this.
I want to get these people on there, Like did
you already have that or what?

Speaker 1 (51:27):
Did that kind of move and.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Change gradually and gradually, you know, Havoc was my first
thought though, like yeah, as far as features go have
it was my first thought. And I and when he
said yes, I was like, dude, I was like, if
we get Havoc to say yes, you know, and like
if I start asking other people, got it?

Speaker 1 (51:49):
You don't want to be honest, you don't want to
ask Look, I got the infamous one over here. Yeah,
you know, you don't want to be a part. I
was like, that's a good set point.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
I think you know, we could we could really pitched
it to some people, right. He's like okay, and yeah.
You know, when when Havoc sent me his verse, I
couldn't believe it. I was in tears and tears like
and what's crazy too, is I was wearing this jersey.
It's this red Hennessy jersey. I don't drink, but I

(52:18):
fuck with jerseys, you know, So I was like, whatever,
I'll wear it. So when I was doing recording my
vocals for the song intended for Havoc, I'm wearing this
jersey right, and I'm I'm rapping woo woo. I come
outside and somebody look. I don't even know who it was.
Somebody looks at me and they go, that's a dope
ass jersey. They're like, ooh, said Prodigy in the back hume.

(52:41):
And I was like it does huh and and they
were like, yeah, you know, that's a mob deep jersey.
And I was like, shut the fuck up. And they
were like look and it had like a little triangle
that said mob deep on there, and I was like,
I was like franco If this saying no motherfucking sign.

(53:02):
Like I didn't even do it on purpose, Like I
literally I just showed up, you know, And I was
wearing this jersey because I like the color and I
like how big it was and this wow yeah. And
somebody literally was like, because I saw that it said prodigy,
but I didn't actually think prodigy, you know. I just
thought like a prodigy child or whatever, you know, and

(53:25):
I didn't I looked too much into it. And then
they were like, look, it has a whole mob deep
thing on there. And I was like, bro, that's insane.
So when I was recording that, I was wearing that jersey.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
So okay, when these moments are happening, is it how Okay,
there's a couple of questions, but when you have these moments,
is it like, oh yeah, this is supposed to happen
regularly freaked out Like I'm.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Grateful got it because I don't take it for granted
because to me, it just keeps proving how magical life is.
And when I'm in that mindset, it keeps proving itself
to me. It keeps showing me how magic works.

Speaker 2 (54:06):
So was what havoc was the first feature that you
got out the gate. So of course it's at that
moment it'd be easy to kind of pitch it to people.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
How did the Masi situation work out for you?

Speaker 3 (54:19):
That is a great story. So I had just finished
the studio session with Franco and normally we'd be done five,
six pm and I'll go home, I'll leave. But this
particular day, David Ali, who is yes, who's the one
that you know, helped me, you know, get this whole

(54:39):
thing rolling. He was like, hey, Daisy, won't you stay
for a minute. You don't show me what you've been
working on. And I was like, yeah, for sure, you know.
And I was like, so we're gonna go inside and
he's like, no, no, just hit play so the whole
office can hear.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
And it's like twenty people.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
And I was like, oh like now all right, you know.

Speaker 1 (54:59):
It ain't mixed.

Speaker 3 (55:00):
Yeah, yeah, yeah exactly, you already know it's yeah. So
you know, I start playing my ship and we're probably
ten minutes in, right, and all of a sudden, this
energy just walks into the room. I'm saying, like, the
door gets kicked down and there's like twenty dudes walking

(55:22):
in and it's loud, and my music's loud, and they're
like happy to see each other dabbing each other up.
And you know, like, like I've always said this, like
I'm super courteous, Like I was raised like that, so
you know, if people are talking, you lower the music
so that they can hear each other. Right. But I'm
on my rap shit, and I've learned from a lot

(55:43):
of fucking rappers, and I was like, now, fuck that
none of these motherfuckers would lower their music. They don't care.
They'll turn it up, start it over, you know. So
I was like, all right, your rap shit, don't lower it.
So so yeah, so I don't lower it, right, and
I just see Mozzi, you know, like vibe into it,

(56:05):
and he comes over. He goes this you and I
was like yeah. He goes oh yeah, He's like, yeah,
we're gonna work. And I was like and I was like, yeah,
hell yeah. People say that all the time, you know.
So I'm like, yeah, yeah, we would work for sure,
you know. And I was like, hey, you know, as
long as he gave me that reaction, that's a win

(56:27):
to me, you know what I mean. So we're sitting
there and we're having a conversation for about ten minutes
and then he goes, so what's up.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
You go right now?

Speaker 3 (56:36):
Yeah, he goes, so what's up? You're gonna load something up?
Mind you? My producer left, he's also my engineer, so
he's gone, you know, and I'm just sitting there with
David and Mozzi and the whole gang in the office,
and I was just like shit, like he wants something
right now, and like he was like, yeah, give me

(56:57):
a song you already got, so I just hop on
there and I was like, oh, because the songs that
I already that I had four that had open verses
were meant for somebody already. When I made my Enemy
song that was meant for the Yogies, I did it
with them in mind, you know. I when I did,

(57:18):
I still hadn't received that Havoc verse, but he had
already told me yes, So I couldn't give him that
one because I was like, bro, I like, yeah, it's heavy,
you know, Like there were there were so many songs
that I had open verses on that were already for someone,
you know. And I was like, you know, I'm gonna
keep it real with you. And I was like, the

(57:38):
songs that I have that have open verses that already
meant for somebody, and I don't want to give you,
you know, like I don't and he was like all right.
He was like, I prefer something that's already made. But
if you got a beat, he was like, pull it up.
And I said, oh, I got beat, but I got beats.
I got beats. So I started looking through some beats

(58:00):
and there was this one that just I had already
been vibe into it that earlier that week, and I
was like, I think I could write to this. Earlier
that week. I was listening to that right, and then
when I showed it to him, he was like that
one's he was that was straight, and I was like, okay,
but like I kind of want to show you what
my vibe is, you know, just so that you kind

(58:20):
of you know, like know you know what I do.
And it was just me and him in that fire
escape and I have my phone and I played him
three songs and after those three songs, he goes, all right,
load it up, Yeah, he said, loaded up. And David
found an engineer that was like in the building, and

(58:40):
you know, he brings them into the room. He took
about twenty minutes, gave me a verse, and I really
needed that because during the that moment in my life,
you know, it was the up, upside downs, ups and downs.
You know. Ever since the beginning of the year, I
haven't really had any and downs. I've been very balanced

(59:03):
and grounded and like, I haven't been depressed. I haven't
you know, had crazy thoughts. But prior to the beginning
of the year, it's always been like this, you know.
So I'm always going up and down, and at that moment,
I was down. So when he gave me that verse,

(59:23):
I was over the moon. I couldn't fucking believe it.
I was. I was just like God, like you did
this for me, Like thank you so much, Like I
I'm so grateful, Like this is all you? Uh? When
he gets he's in the booth recording and I see
his fucking jersey and it says God's Child on it
in the back right, and I was just like yo,

(59:45):
like again magic.

Speaker 2 (59:48):
And I can imagine in this moment, because you said
you would asked for the Havoc verse, still hadn't gotten it.

Speaker 3 (59:53):
Still hadn't he had told me yet.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
Yeah you gonna get it, but it still wasn't in
your inbox.

Speaker 3 (59:58):
So you see where I'm paying exactly where. I'm like,
am I really gonna.

Speaker 1 (01:00:02):
Get it right? Right?

Speaker 3 (01:00:04):
Because you know how how how this ship works. It's like, okay,
he said yes, but I've been let down so many times, like,
am I actually gonna get it? So actually Mazi was
my first.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
I was gonna I was gonna get to that. Yes, yes,
so even yes he said yes, but the first verse
you received was Mazi. That is crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
That's what gave put that fucking fuel on my back
to just like okay, now now now now I'm onto something.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
Damn.

Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
So you you were talking about, you know, and I
feel like the Yodi's that you said you had something
for them in their their home term, so that's family
or whatever the case may be. So I feel like
that that was an easy link up to to make workout.
Same thing for Markhams, like that, that's somebody that you've known,
you guys, I.

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
Mean Markhams for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
I knew I was if anybody I get that Mkhams.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
Is gonna say yes absolutely, because you know, we we
like that, we really have a solid friendship. But I
knew that the Yodies was really busy, you know, So
I was like, man, I don't know. Yeah, I was like,
I was like, I don't know, you know. So when
I reached out and I asked them, I was like,

(01:01:17):
first I asked wopple, you know, and he was like, yeah,
you know, for sure. I sent it to him, but
I didn't get nothing back for a long time, and
I was like, the thing with me is I hate
to bug. I hate to be like excuse me, excuse me,
you know what I'm saying, Like, I just I hate
to fucking bug, you know. But then I had ran

(01:01:39):
into Ricky at well both of them, at Mike and Keys,
and you know, I was shown because like I'm drawing
all my features right, and like I pulled out my
book and I'm like drawing. He's like, what's up, Like
why aren't you drawing me? And I was like, well,
if y'all would have done my feature, like you know,

(01:01:59):
I would have been drawing y'all, you know, And he's like,
what do you mean?

Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
And I can go to the text.

Speaker 3 (01:02:04):
I was like, I said, woo. You know, He's like,
oh no, no, no, send that, send that again, you know,
And they sent it back to me. And what's crazy
is the yodies was one of the first rappers I
ever met. M hm. So this is how it happened.
Remember I told you I come from being a hair
and stylist. I didn't know nobody in this shit. Okay.

(01:02:28):
So when I dropped my my song Chills, right and
it's doing numbers, I had a homegirl. I have a
homegirl named Tina. She sent it to the Game. I've
been knowing the Game from Staple center, right, And we
didn't talk for a few years because when when I
first met him, I was in that party mode where

(01:02:51):
you know, I was showing up to his July fourth
parties and you know all that shit, right, But then
I calmed down. I kind of that lifestyle wasn't aligning anymore, right.
So she sends it to him. He's like, what the
fuck and he's like, yeah, I remember her, Like tell
her to pull up. So I'll pull up to a

(01:03:14):
session for Game. This is when he's working on his album.
I forget the name of that album, but it's the
one right before this one. Right now, he's working on
documentary three, but it was the one right before. So
I show up with my manager at the time and
wax there and like, mind you, I told you I

(01:03:36):
don't know nobody. I don't know nobody, so like, you know,
I end up chopping it up with Whack and you know,
he's like, oh, young lady, hell yeah, you dope. You know,
I'm about to have a podcast with the Yodies and
Cyprus Moreno on Tuesday. It was like Saturday or Sunday,

(01:03:59):
I don't fucking know, but it was like two days away,
and he's like, I'm going to have a podcast, Like
you need to pull up. You know, you're gonna represent
the ladies and you know you're Latina and wootie woo right,
Like he's telling me all this shit, and again I
have no clue who Whack is. I got no fucking clue, right,
So I show up and that happens. I'm like yeah, sure, yeah,

(01:04:24):
I'm like I'll show up right And at the end,
you know, I tell my manager at the time he's like, okay,
he explained a few things.

Speaker 1 (01:04:33):
Yeah, and I was like, oh, here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:04:36):
And I was like, oh okay, you know, and I
was like all right, you know, and I again grab
my fucking balls and I'll show up and the Yodis
is there and Cyprus is there. So that's the first
time that I meet them and they're basically the first
people that I meet in.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
The shit that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
And then having that bond throughout the years and then
then end up being on your freaking pro is insane, dude.
I mean, you talked about a lot of the ups
and downs, and I'm sure there was a lot of
wanting to give up, even though the fast forward to
you know the project, you're working on it you have,
assuming you have multiple dates in mind? What kept you

(01:05:18):
in that that mindset.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
Of not wanting to give up and not wanted to.

Speaker 3 (01:05:21):
Like just it, you want to know something interesting that
I just put together. Right now, for the most part,
it's all been up. Like It's really rare when I've
had a tough moment in music or anything like that.
It's like, from the moment I started, it was nothing
but positive stuff, feeling welcomed everywhere I went to, Like,

(01:05:44):
I just felt like it was not a struggle. You know,
when people would ask like, oh, how do you feel
as a woman coming into this shit, I'd be like,
it's easy, you know, like, like I like it here
from right. But the moments that actually made me feel

(01:06:05):
down was the lack of support from certain people that
were around me really yeah, as far as like people
that I thought would be there during the journey, you know,
people that I was like, Oh, soon as so and
so finds out that this is happening, they're gonna be stoked.
Oh they're going to be pulling up to my shit there.

(01:06:25):
And when it was like super quiet where it was
like not even alike or you know, it was like,
that's what would make me feel bad. Yeah, And for
the longest time, it really did make me feel bad, really, yes,
for the longest time, like I would literally have to

(01:06:46):
just push it away because the people that were showing
up for me like crazy were mainly strangers, you know,
and a few close friends. There's some close friends they
know who they are, that they've been there from the
very beginning, you know, always uplifting me, always supporting. But
to this day, there are certain, you know, people that

(01:07:09):
I really assumed would be there, you know, and that's
when I would feel down. And you know, now it's
like the conversations that I'm having with myself, I'm like,
why do you always think the world revolves around you?
You know, like why are you always like oh, me, me, me, me, me,

(01:07:30):
you're not showing up for me, you're not showing me support. Well,
how do you show up for them? You know? And
I had to start asking myself those kind of questions
where I was like some people, you know, I distanced
myself from because it just I don't know, it was
just the vibe, you know. But there were some people
that I was like, Okay, maybe I need to reach

(01:07:54):
out more, right, maybe I need to put in a
little more effort, you know, because for the longest it
really was I was in that mindset and I was like,
you don't know what people are going through.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
I was going to ask you, like, do you feel
like there was a certain level level of entitlement with that?

Speaker 1 (01:08:10):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
I guess I mean, because to me, it was just like, bitch,
I ain't doing all regular shit right right, why are
you not.

Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
Here celebrating with me?

Speaker 3 (01:08:20):
You know what I mean? Like, it's like I get it.
If I was doing this shit for ten years and
nothing was popping off, and you know I was, I
had no motion.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
I totally get it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:32):
But like, bro, come on, you know, Like I was like,
I don't you see me? I know, you see it? Right?
And like and this whole havoc thing is just been
out for a week, right, so, like like this has
been brewing about three and a half years. That's how
long I've been doing this, you know. So for me,

(01:08:53):
it's like I had to just really realize that the
world doesn't revolve around me, you know, and people are
dealing with real life shit, like they're probably depressed, they
probably don't even they're probably happy for me, and I'm
over here tripping, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:09:10):
Have you were do you reach out to those individuals
that to have that conversation or did you just kind
of just let it let it go.

Speaker 3 (01:09:16):
There are some people I did not have that conversation with.
It was just like it just it felt too sour
for me, where I was just like nah, like I
can't believe that, you know. Like but at the same time,
I still have those thoughts, you know, where you don't

(01:09:36):
know what people are going through, you know, so I
don't harbor any hatred, you know. That's where I'm like,
deep down, I still love you, right, you know what
I mean, Like there's still love there, but it's just
I just kind of distanced myself, you know. But I
also have that idea of you don't know what the

(01:09:59):
fuck you were going through, Like people are damn near suicidal.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
I mean, it's it's.

Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
Dope that you have a certain level of understanding for
people in those moments. But at the same time, it's like, you.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
Know, anything can happen, but I know it it hurts.

Speaker 2 (01:10:14):
It's like, ah, I'm on this journey and I'm doing
it like I'm doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
It's my first album. Why aren't you here watching experience
experience it with me?

Speaker 3 (01:10:22):
But the ones, the ones that are here, those are
the ones that I need to put extra effort, call
them a little more, shoot them a text. Hey, I'm
thinking about you, you know, because like why why worry
about you know the other stuff I've been doing that,

(01:10:44):
you know, and like all it does is make me
feel ugly, things make me talk shit. I'm tired of
talking shit. I don't want to talk shit about people
no more, you know what I mean? Like, I literally
I don't you know, Like I'm just like.

Speaker 2 (01:10:59):
Like, so, what, Yeah, it's good that you're you're not
able to hold on to that, because I feel like
that's what the thing that holds a lot of people
back is you're you know, hanging on to the resentment
or all these feelings or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
Thank God for that.

Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
What I do want to talk about Rhyme FESTL Like, Man,
your experience there. I mean, that was just such a
huge platform for you, and I know that was just
an amazing feeling to be able to just show up
and show out and talk about that experience, that feeling,
I mean, just another groundbreaking moment and what.

Speaker 1 (01:11:34):
I love about what you do.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
And this goes from either something that Rhyme Fest or
in the studio you're and we talked about it before,
but it's like the there's no shaming you pressing play.
There's no shame when you getting in front of the
crowd and showcasing your talent.

Speaker 1 (01:11:49):
Hell, we were just.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
At Ruggos thing the other day and Mar's like, you
got some ship, Yeah, all right, cool play a couple
of tracks off my album.

Speaker 1 (01:11:57):
But it's like, God, you're willing to okayhit talented.

Speaker 2 (01:12:01):
I feel like that That's what it was at ron
Fest LA as well. Talk about that experience, getting that
call that you were going to be on there, and
then you know, you utilizing your platform to then showcase
you know, rug O and you know.

Speaker 1 (01:12:13):
What I mean, and other homies that were there as well.

Speaker 3 (01:12:16):
Well, here's another coincy think story for you. I do
not know how, but somehow I knew Scooby a few
years ago. I think he uh he had like a
weed shop or something. I don't know what I was
doing in there, I don't know. Like, all I know
is that I met scoobye a few years ago and

(01:12:39):
we were following each other on Instagram. Again. I'm probably
a security guard turned hairstylist at this moment, you know.
And I had put on my story that I was
looking for a German shepherd to give to my dad,
and Scooby sliders up in my DM says, hey, I
know somebody that got some German shepherds. And I was said, okay, cool.

(01:13:01):
So I went to go pick up my dog. I
still got that dog to this day. It's my dad's
favorite dog. We got three dogs, but that one, that
one is his dog, you know. And I gifted him
to him for Valentine's Day. And out of nowhere, I'll
start doing music down the down the road. And I

(01:13:23):
didn't even know he ran Ryan Fest. I had no idea,
you know, So all of a sudden I get a
call from Tu Mex Alex and he was like, hey,
you know, we were wondering if you want to perform
at Ryan Fest and I was like, I was like yeah,
and I was like I know Scooby though, like why

(01:13:44):
he ain't called me, you know, and like yeah, and
like we we just ended up talking and he was
he offered me, you know, a spot, and I was
just like yeah, you know, I'm of course I'm with it.
And I showed up, you know, did my thing, and
here we are.

Speaker 2 (01:14:01):
That's why I mean, I love hearing these experiences because
it's it's I feel like it's motivational for people to
hear just kind of like if you get out of
your own way, how things kind of align and happen,
and just how you've been receiving it and just been.

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
Going and it's it's just a great story.

Speaker 2 (01:14:18):
Man, perfect time around the album, like just everything working
out for you perfect.

Speaker 1 (01:14:24):
Yeah, it was.

Speaker 3 (01:14:26):
Really perfect timing. I'm so amazed by God's timing. That's
why I don't question ship. Like, even though I told
you I was pissed about the album, kept getting pushed back.
I was like, I trust you, do you you know?
I just kept saying that. I was like, whatever, you know,
what the fuck.

Speaker 2 (01:14:44):
You're doing now, I'm gonna I'm gonna look it up
as as I'm talking to you.

Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
But there's a track.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
On Shots Dough, Yes, sir, the song with because I
remember seeing it in real time, the studio session song
with uh and I'm gonna mess up who else? I
just know what Larussell apps, So who else is all
on that that particular song bar.

Speaker 3 (01:15:07):
Oatmeal with bar Oatmeillar and Manny Cooling, Many Cooling.

Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
Why I felt like it was like eight people on there,
or maybe it's because the song is like eight minutes long.

Speaker 3 (01:15:17):
It's because Absol and Larussell did two.

Speaker 1 (01:15:22):
They were going back and forth. That's what it was.

Speaker 3 (01:15:24):
Okay, So like basically that session, I think Larrussell had
just performed. He had just performed, and you know, we
showed up and little by little people just started dropping
into the studio and it just became a whole party.
Like there was like fifty people in there, right and

(01:15:46):
they're playing beats and you know that beat came up
and man, you don't have to tell me nothing. I'm
in the corner writing just in case, you know, like
nobody asked me to do shit. It's just already know
how it works, you know. So I'm sitting in there
and I was like, I'm going to write just in case.
So sometimes I'm not that quick, you know. Sometimes it

(01:16:10):
takes me a little longer. So thank god that Lo
Russell and so went in twice because they extended that
time for me. I was literally the last one. Dude
before me had just done his ship and they're like moving.

Speaker 1 (01:16:27):
On, and I was like nope, and I was like,
I got something. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:16:31):
I was like I got something, and everyone turning they're like,
oh yeah, like all right, all right. So I go
in there and I do my thing, you know, and
they're like, oh shit, you know, and.

Speaker 1 (01:16:42):
Hey, kill it, man, that's kill it.

Speaker 3 (01:16:45):
That's how I ended up on there, all right.

Speaker 2 (01:16:46):
So there's a couple of things that we do on
the radio, and I want to I want to get
your your your feedback on this. Man. I like to
know the last time Daisy Lynn has had a WTF moment?
What the I feel like this this episode has a
lot of like what the fuck? It's you know what
I mean, But for you, what was the last time
you just had to say what the fuck.

Speaker 1 (01:17:04):
What the fuck?

Speaker 3 (01:17:05):
Man? Every time I fucking drive these idiots, they.

Speaker 1 (01:17:09):
On your way here?

Speaker 3 (01:17:11):
Yeah, no for real, Like.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
I'm okay, what like, are you a bad driver?

Speaker 3 (01:17:16):
I am the best driver. No, no, no, no, no,
no no no. Since high school, I have been known
to be the best driver in the friend group, and
I've been told this is the getaway driver if we
ever needed one, because I I'm like, I'm just too alert.
I don't know how to explain it, but I have

(01:17:37):
ego eyes. I see like, okay, you see how I'm
looking at you. I can see my hand right here
like my praise.

Speaker 1 (01:17:45):
Oh no, I'm not. I'm not buying it the way.

Speaker 3 (01:17:48):
That I can parallel park on the try and between cars.

Speaker 1 (01:17:53):
How many tickets have you gotten in your in your
driving career? But how many? How many tickes have you gotten?

Speaker 3 (01:17:59):
I'm I mean for parking.

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
I've got a ticket.

Speaker 3 (01:18:03):
I had a speeding ticket once a long time ago.
I had a speeding ticket.

Speaker 1 (01:18:09):
Okay, so you don't have like a record like that.

Speaker 3 (01:18:11):
Nah, I'm fucking I'm the best fucking driver ever. I've
I've literally missed accidents like I've prevented ship because of
how quick I am like, the reflexes are too quick.
I promise you. You know what I would love to do
one day is is get on a course and like

(01:18:32):
show my ship. Yeah. I used to always tell people that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:38):
Next ship too. Yeah, just the way things aligned for you, surprise.
And that's how we're talking. That's some sue.

Speaker 3 (01:18:45):
Well, actually, after this rap ship, I want to be
an interior designer.

Speaker 2 (01:18:49):
So it's do you have I'm sorry, do you have
an end goal in mind for this?

Speaker 1 (01:18:54):
For music? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:18:56):
No, there's no end goal to me. It's just like
wherever the past takes me, you know, And I just
want to accomplish as much as I can as long
as I'm happy, you know, as long as I can
still live right, Like I'm not like crazy broke.

Speaker 1 (01:19:16):
What about what about the end of the year.

Speaker 2 (01:19:18):
The year can't end without Daisyland doing what what do
you have your eyes set on at this moment?

Speaker 3 (01:19:23):
Let me see. This is because I want to go
to New York and I want to tap in with
on the radar. I want to do the Chinatown sound.
I think that's what it's called. It's like where they
they they're in Chinatown, New York, and.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
Oh, I think I think I've seen that. Yeah, okay,
that's a whole bunch of.

Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
That's where I've seen. Yeah, I've seen them on there.

Speaker 3 (01:19:52):
Yeah, I want to get on sways one more time.
I want to. I want to go over there and
I will be like, let's talk about yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
You know, like story man, a full circle moment.

Speaker 3 (01:20:03):
Yes, you know, and let me see. I mean, I
want to lock in as many interviews as I can
in l A. You know, you're my first. Yeah, shout
out to Chuck. Appreciate you, man, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:20:17):
I appreciate you. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:20:20):
I was asking that because I feel like you're really
good at attracting all these things, and I do that
for people so they, you know, can get in the
mindset of like seeing what they want and actually getting that.
But I feel like from from if you haven't been
able to tell throughout this conversation that has been your
life journey, like seeing things and just aligning and kind
of getting out of your own way. If there's anybody

(01:20:42):
that is kind of going through one of those down
moments and you know they they don't have the clarity,
you know what, what advice could could you offer them
in this moment?

Speaker 1 (01:20:52):
Maybe the the you of years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:20:56):
What I what I can say is that we are
all knowing beings. Our gut tells us immediately what is
safe and what isn't. And the way that we know
that is how we feel after we're in someone's presence. So,
when you're in someone's presence, are you comfortable or do

(01:21:17):
you have a little bit of anxiety? Do you feel
bad afterwards? Do you feel shame afterwards? All these things matter,
and these are all very clear indicators as to who
I need to keep around and who I need to
remove or distance myself from. Just like you can accumulate

(01:21:40):
clutter in your home, you can accumulate clutter energetically and
that will block your blessings. When I tell you that,
my blessings come when I excuse someone from my life
on everything. It happens every single time. God's like, here's
a treat for listening, you know, because so many times

(01:22:03):
I haven't listened and I get kicked an ask for it,
you know. So what I can say is if someone's
feeling down, they know why. Yeah, it's not a mystery.
They know exactly why they feel down, and what they
need to do is work on their confidence, work on
their relationship with God. You know, pray, prayer is really big.

(01:22:29):
Have The last time that I lost my mind was
during Christmas time. And wow, like when I when I
got home this particular day, I felt completely defeated and
it was one of those moments where you think you're dying.

(01:22:50):
You feel like you're emotionally dying, and for the first
time in my life, I called on Jesus Christ. I've
never done that before. I've always spoken to God. That
was always my you know, like my my speed dial
or whatever go to. Yeah, you know, it was never
Jesus Christ, you know. And that day I said, fuck it,

(01:23:13):
if you're real, pull up because I need somebody. I
need you here. And I swear to God, I felt
the presence in my room, you know. And I felt
the presence and I must have cried for like thirteen
hours straight. I do not hold tears back. And that's
what I learned as well during that journey is tears

(01:23:36):
are meant to cleanse you. That's why they're there. That's
why we're able to do that, you know, because that's
what that's their function. So I do not suppress my
tears or my feelings. I let it out until there's
nothing left. And when I tell you from that day,
that thirteen hour cry for help and talking to g

(01:24:00):
I'm doing all this shit I've I've never I've never
felt that way again. I barely cry. I might have
like the tier or two, and you know, I wipe
them off and I'm like, hey, keep pushing, Yeah, we
keep going. We already know how this works. Tomorrow's a
new day. You know. If you can feel bad all

(01:24:24):
you want, but you know tomorrow's a new day.

Speaker 2 (01:24:27):
Now, before we get out of it, I got to
hear a wild Staple Center story. You said you work security.
I was to touch on that for a second. But
what have you seen at the Staple Center? What's been
in your experience working there?

Speaker 3 (01:24:39):
Well, I've said already a few Kobe stories. Okay, so
this one I don't think i've said yet, So fuck it,
we'll say this one. This was Kobe's last game. I'm
on the court because my position was always on the
court right. So my job as a security guard is
to make sure that the courtside seat holders do not

(01:25:03):
cross this particular line on the court right. That's strictly
NBA basketball players referees. Like nobody I don't give a
shit how famous you are. You cannot cross this line here, right,
So plenty of celebrities in the house. It's Kobe, Kobe's
last game, you know. So I see jay Z and

(01:25:26):
you know, he's having a good time, he's talking to
people or whatever, and he crosses the line, and you know,
I'm where I'm at, where I'm supposed to be. And
then there's a thing bat that's also working with me,
pretending not to see him, and he's like and I

(01:25:47):
was like, you little bitch, like you're not going to
tell him nothing, you know, Like, now I gotta go
and be the bad guy, right because let me tell y'all,
was the bad guy for so many people have endless
stories of getting cussed out by certain people, pushed by
certain people, certain rappers. Yes, pushed, okay, because you you
you ruffled some feathers there. Yeah. Yeah, So you know,

(01:26:12):
I was like, god damn it, like, you know, and
I was like, and he was, oh, like was turn
you known, didn't see anything. I was like all right,
like and I know I got eyes on me at
this moment, you know, because it's just too much of
a big game, and like I'm always trying to secure
my spot on that court, right, So I was like,
all right, here I go. So I go over and

(01:26:34):
I was like, I'm so sorry you do you think
you could go past that line over there? And like
my hand is doing this right, but I'm not actually
touching him, Like I'm just kind of like, do you
think and like my hand's like in the back of
his his back, right, could you go over? Right? And
like he's talking. He's saying something so loud, it's fucking
I don't know how many thousands, twenty four thousand people there,

(01:26:56):
I don't fucking know. And it's so loud, so much
going on, I can't hear what he's saying. But he's
muttering something under his breath, right, and out of nowhere,
I hear him goes. I hear him goal, you ain't
got to push me, Like I don't know what he says, right,
And I and I stopped and I look at him
and I was like, I didn't push you, And he

(01:27:18):
was like, that's embarrassing. He was like, He's like, you
could just tell me to move. He's like, don't, don't,
don't push me. He was like, that's embarrassing. And I
was like, I would never push you. Can you just
stand on that side please? And he and he like yeah,
and he like got so angry with me, and he
sat down on the in the seats and he's giving

(01:27:41):
me and what you think. I'm like, you know, like
I'm doing the same thing. Like we over here having
a little staring contests, right, And I was like, that's crazy.
All the all the lyrics that I know of you,
of your ship, you know, and you over here telling
me not to push you when I would, you know.
I was like, bro, like I've been singing your songs

(01:28:04):
word for word since I was a little girl.

Speaker 1 (01:28:06):
You just lost a fan.

Speaker 3 (01:28:08):
I mean I was still fan, you know, and cry
it out, you know, like wow. So he's mad, right,
and like we're having like a little like I mean,
I don't know if he remembers, but I remember we
were looking at each other and he was he was
giving me a little nasty smirks, you know. And here's

(01:28:31):
the thing. I spot. Lamar was a Lamar yet it
was Lamar Odom and Kanye West not in the in
the court side, but like first or second row of
those first rows, right, so they're not supposed to be
court side, right. So they come onto the court during halftime,

(01:28:52):
and the guest services that are in charge of letting
people onto the court let them on, and I was like, hey,
that's not my job, you know. I was like, my
only job is to make sure they don't cross this
fucking line right here. Right. So they walk onto the
core and they're having fun, they're mingling with everybody. They
go straight to jay Z. They're oh right, and like

(01:29:12):
they're having fun. All of a sudden, Kanye spills over
onto the line that you're not supposed to cross, and
I was like, shit, we go again, like jay Z.
You know. I was like if jay Z fucking just
almost cuts me out right now, like fucking Kanye.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
And know, I was like, all.

Speaker 3 (01:29:32):
Right, man, So I work the courage go over there,
and as I'm walking over there, jay Z's like this
looking at me as I'm going over to tell Kanye.
And I go over to Kanye and I was like,
I'm so sorry, but do you think you could just
step back? And he looks at me, he like he
hops over the line and he's like whoa, you know,

(01:29:55):
and he's like, am I good right here? I'm good,
you know, And he's like, don't hurt me out and
I was like and I was like yes, and I
was like, you're perfect and I looked at jay Z
and yeah, yeah, you should be more like right. So
you know, it was one of those things where I
was like, yo, I would have thought Kanye would, but

(01:30:18):
it was jay Z that was like not feeling me,
you know. And yeah, he definitely had some a little
bit of energy.

Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
For me that that is wild because you I mean,
you've heard it was so you know, calm and collected
and yeah's the other way, so that you get two
different experiences from the other part that's.

Speaker 3 (01:30:34):
He literally was like he jumped and was like, don't
hurt my bad.

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:30:39):
Yeah, And it was such a like playful experience, you know.
And I was like, oh, thank God, Like I have
to because I mean, you on the court, you know,
like me deal, you just go. I don't care how
rich I am. Like you want me to school over,
I'll school the buck over, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
Daisy Land l a baby. Now, what do you feel
like your.

Speaker 2 (01:31:01):
Business card track is is will end on this note?
What do you feel like the song is the best
representation of who Daisy Lynn is that you would love
for people to press play on and kind of get
a better inside of who you are on this, on
this album, on this, on this album, your business card track, Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:31:19):
My god, you know what, that song with Mazzi has
always been my favorite, just the the things that I
talk about, the way that I say it. It makes
me cry, even to this day when I'm driving, like
I just have tears down my face, you know. So

(01:31:42):
definitely the song with Mazzi, it's called this Time. Okay,
that's my favorite. You know.

Speaker 1 (01:31:49):
I would tell you when I would pick for you, Okay,
I would pick. I would pick.

Speaker 2 (01:31:54):
From the Land only because you go by the La
Baby reference so much for the Land up.

Speaker 1 (01:32:03):
And it was even funny as we were, I was like,
oh shit, she even gave a shout out to Big Boy.

Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
I told him that as funny as I told big
Boy and Corrupt. I told both of them like, you know,
I give you a shout out my song, and both
of them were like, oh, that's love, that's dope. You know.
But let's see if we can get a little cameo
at some point, you know, because I'm working on that
music video. That day for my listening session, we shot something,

(01:32:31):
you know, and I'm like, I'm working my way there.

Speaker 2 (01:32:34):
That was That was one of like that was that
was one of the standout ones for me. When I
was in there, when you were pressing play, I was like, No,
this is I like the energy of this one I
have it feels for sure. Yeah, I mean, but you
got I mean, I love your story. I love your journey,
and I love the fact that you it's it seems
like you don't take any of this for granted, you
know what I mean. It's been a short journey relatively

(01:32:57):
from when you started, but it's so much has happened,
and I love that you have kind of been able
to take us through that whole process. Is there anything
that the people need to know about Daisy Land that
we haven't already talked about as of yet?

Speaker 3 (01:33:10):
Hmmm? Did I mentioned I'm a little psychic?

Speaker 1 (01:33:13):
You did? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:33:15):
Like you know, I still do hair, you know, so.

Speaker 1 (01:33:18):
I did you never navigate that with with doing three
days a week? Gotcha? Is there is the goal to
move away from that or you you still are one
hundred percent with that?

Speaker 3 (01:33:28):
Will love to be a full time content creating rapper,
you know, like I would love to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
You know, Bill's got to get paid.

Speaker 3 (01:33:38):
I don't have no sugar, daddy. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:33:41):
Are you putting a request out there if you don't
want no sugar?

Speaker 2 (01:33:44):
Yes, I don't know how that's gonna work with the sugar,
so h but yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (01:33:52):
Know it's like, that's that's how I make a living,
that's how I eat. All of that goes right back
into my music. You know. It's like mm hmmm. So
it's not that I don't love doing hair. It's just
that was just one of the gifts God gave me
to get by. You know. It's like that's what I've

(01:34:13):
always known how to do. You know what I love
about doing hair is bringing back someone's confidence, making them
feel happy about looking at themselves. I've been I've always
been big on makeovers, Like I've always they dreamed about
having a makeover show. Like when I was little, I
used to be like, I'm gonna pick the bummiest bitch
off the street and like and be like, I see,

(01:34:37):
potentially I'm going to take you and do your hair
like this and give you this haircut, and put you
in these clothes and give you these nails and the makeup.

Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
You know, and maybe you can turn the content that
now well.

Speaker 3 (01:34:49):
I've, I've. It's a lot. It's a lot like editing
stuff like that and doing no.

Speaker 1 (01:34:57):
I know, I know, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:35:00):
Hey line to that shit and Daisy, okay, don't don't
try to year off.

Speaker 1 (01:35:04):
Oh I can't.

Speaker 2 (01:35:06):
As much shit as you have been through that, that's
a line that can be something that you can do
for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
You know, I did it once before. I remember I
had this like giveaway. It was years ago, before I
was doing music. I had this big giveaway on Instagram
and it was like, oh, you know, follow me and
you enter this raffle and I did this huge like
makeover where I had girls bringing their clothes from their
clothing brand and like shoes and makeup and you know,

(01:35:35):
like we all collaborated on this makeover and it was
kind of like my mini TV show that I always
daydreamed about since I was little. I always daydream about
shit like that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:46):
You know, Man, Daisy Land the La baby, go grab
the project right now. I appreciate you pulling up and
making this your first stop, and just I look forward
to seeing everything else you got going on.

Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Man.
