the big check for a thousand dollars? No, y'are getting
about fifty show. I mean, we ain't up gave back

and and and Jake good. You know what I'm saying.
We liked it. We ain't tripping on what as long
as you say listen all these people being critical. I'm like,

(01:06):
did y'all ever donate money anywhere? People so critical? That's all.
But I'm sure y'all giving more than a thousand dollars Atlanta.
That was our first that was our first time. Like
I said, we never you know what I'm saying. They
always put that kind of label on us. We need

(01:26):
to open up and start doing more, you know what
I mean. Maybe if we give a thousand dollars to
most schools in jail instead of one man, you give
us champ of the day, a player of the day.
You need to start doing that instead of dunk here
of the day. I would definitely salute your line. It
wasn't the money, though, it was just the check. Check
was huge. It was a big check. It was huge.
We're gonna make you a time. Y'all got your debut

And I feel like y'all got feel like your albums
in the album. Man. Yeah, it's a fish wrapped up,
packed up, ready to go, you know what I mean.
And and we just put a whole lot of hard
work into it, a whole lot of them, just graduation
and steps and learning lessons into this album and y'all

(02:12):
gonna see it because it's a lot different than the mixtape.
What's different about it? What's the process? How is that
different from making a mixtape doing an album? You know,
you can really go one one genre one way. You
can go straight trap, you can go one song for
the latest on the album. You can't really do that.
You gotta hit every aspect. You don't want to leave
nothing out because you're trying to explain your family. But

(02:33):
an album and luck a mixtape, you know what I'm saying.
Are you ever surprising certain songs become your single? Like,
how do you determine that? How do you determine what's
going to be a single? Or do you let the
people say this is what we're liking? Has that ever
been a surprise to you? What people pick? Always? Always
we let the people pick. You gotta take them to
the radios if it's radio friendly, you know what I mean.
It's it's a lot different than from the mix tapes.

(02:55):
In the streets and you just drop a song in
the whole club liking and the DJ ain't got no
choice because street Light on man, you know what they're
rocking with? It. But you just gotta put you gotta
je fortune and fortuned on their head and just put
it on their head and let the people decide. We
always let the people side our sings. How much of
it was done before our Offset winning? Um, I want
to say, like eighty five, we're done. We only got

(03:16):
like four more foe more songs without him on it.
It's only four new songs on the album. When it
is upset getting out, Let's ask him you on the
phone right now, yo, Offset, What's what's up? Bron cool man?
We're going on. We were just talking about Yeah, we
were just asking about you. When are you coming home?
I'm still you know, I'm still wenting on my own,

(03:38):
my jug and revise my barm man. They still ain't
said night yet. They said you got into a fighting
jail and you gotta stop fighting animators in jail. Offset,
it was some little let's a little misunderstanding. I can't
say too much. The case still open though. Wow, Well,
congratulations on the album. At least you know big things happened.

(03:59):
At least you got on eighty five percent before you
got locked up. Yeah, good eighty five The album going
crazy though? Are you missing the little promo, right, man?
Are you missing being out? I mean, of course I
know you want to be out, but are you missing
the grind of being on the road and everything? Yeah? Yeah,
see me up and see me up because I know
I paid. We all play a part in the group.

(04:20):
I feel like I'm taking away a little bit, but
it's all good. Can they hold me down? Though? Now?
I once rate that you said the device series led
to y'all arrest man. We'll let do your arrest. I
just I can't really say too much. My lawyer don't
want me to say too much on the phone. It
comes to the case. But you know, sometimes my background
will be a problem to situation is going on all right?

(04:41):
Are they tuning you like a celebrity in jail? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
But I'm in a regular population though I want the
PC or nine. Oh you're still ranting rhymes? Are you?
Are you one of those people that could be in
there and still working or you can't clear your head.
I'm still working to help me, help me get through
with things. But it's a little hard rank because we
use it all right, But I had to do something

(05:02):
to keep my mind. Just stay on stay on point.
With myself. I don't want to fall out. I'm just
going to fall out. Is it easier to keep a
peace of mind knowing that you gotta two dudes that's
gonna hold you then, like you know, to putting the
money away for you and all it. Yeah, it's easy
because I still know the train still moving, even though
I'm still sitting down, the train still moving. I know

(05:22):
they're gonna do what's right. That's my family anyway. It's
like they did a focus now they did do four
new songs afterward. If you don't like a song, can
you weigh in and say, look, I don't like that,
y'all can't put that that one out? I don't know
about that one. L I still got my influence. Yeah, definitely.
How does that work for tune in? Three of you? Like,
how do you how do you guys decide what signs
are gonna make the album? And do you ever tell

(05:44):
each other that that versus whack you gotta go back
in and read that you got to keep you hen't
really view with you that it will happen, but I'm
saying we do. I said it before. There's all said.
That will tell y'all you don't like a record of
y'all black all said this. You know you've been in
for a little while. That's what's going on out here.
And na, na, he ain't never slowed it when they
all set for you, get out of there and put

(06:05):
it on swag and put it on dab on that thing.
Are you doing a lot of push ups and everything? No?
M M. Do you feel like I'm in there? Are
people treating you like? Okay? They're cool with you? Are
they jealous? Now? They's cool? Everybody, it's cool. But you know,

(06:25):
sometimes a lot of people being faced and I'm in jail,
so that at the right time. But you know, I'm
still gotta be cool because at the end of the day,
don't post be fans of my music or they suppoint me. So, M,
what do you think that? It's the question for all? Yo,
what's the point of dropping the album now? Being that
y'all did so great independently, I think it was time

(06:48):
for It's time. Yeah, they're just trying to push on
to to people like y'all man, because we we we
got you know what I'm saying. Once again, we got
the streets and we got the mix site. His own
luck but you gotta proves there to the to the
dig them to these cities like New York in LA
I'm saying, but do you really don't? Because your songs
playing the club here, you get played on the radio,

(07:08):
you get collaborations with pretty much everybody. If you talk
to certain people and you'd like the megos independent, they'd
be like, what the albums like? Kind of like rings though,
you know what I'm saying. They get to talking hot
grant you and then they say, what are you doing
this album? You know what I'm saying. So you gotta
get you some rings. Then when you get you some ring,
you'll be all right. People really listen to the Megoes
in Future in Atlanta right now. It's kind of like
the leaders of what's going on? Did y'all listen to

(07:30):
Dirty Sprite too? Yeah, we listen to you. I gave
it a listen. I don't know. You said you don't?
I said, I don't know. Okay, do y'all feel like
y'all get a lot of flat from the atl community?
Ain't number love and a number love on enough showing
love man? Ain't knowing like that you're paying attention to

(07:50):
this whole Drake versus Meek Mill, No, ain't got no
you gotta see it. You gotta What do you think
about battles though? In the back and forth? Like if
somebody coming to y'all, do you feel like you need
do you feel an We'll go buff but we're gonna
we gotta rip. We ain't gonna make two songs one.

(08:11):
You don't get it done, you won't take it, take
it down. Have y'all cleared all your issues with like
Chief Keef and the Chicago guys. Ain't no issues over there,
you know what I mean? Man, We'll never no problem. Yeah, man,
we get money over have y'all. Have y'all switched up
the way y'all move because of the shooting that happened
in Miami? Yeah? More definitely. You always gotta switch up

(08:34):
the way you move, even if no shooting happened. You
know what I'm saying. You can't keep it the same way.
You gotta keep it different. So then you won't play
your cars and they won't see what you got going
on if you got a move like Obama the president. Now,
even when offset locked up, all you guys are doing
shows and everything, do y'all split everything evenly, like even
when you're doing shows and everything, he still gets his
percentage even though he's not here. You gotta know that, man.

(08:58):
You know what I'm saying. We ain't tripping none the
photo music with another press. We always split it. We family,
we will do so, I ain't nothing split it though.
We're gonna let the music breaker or the money get
to now. You guys also have artists signed to you
as well, right yeah, while we're in the label. While
we're in the label, because I always hear Rich the Kids,

(09:19):
that's my guy too. What other artists are y'all working with? Oh?
What happened with Rich the Kids? Oh? Rich Kids? I
know I'm one artists? Oh yeah, most definitely to while
we're in the label. Yeah yeah, rushed out of the
rich Man shout with my boy Rich the Kid. Whatever.
Are y'all looking to sign more artists? If you're doing
your thing then man, and you know what I'm saying,

(09:41):
some money to be made and we work now, you
know it all start with them with the power of
label Q see you know what I mean. That's the
foundation and they who started us. You know what I'm saying,
branch like a family tree. We all family, you know
what I'm saying. So it ain't like nobody advocate, you
know what I mean. It's just all squad business. You know.
You like that you're saying them that ain't going on.
I've been running around doing Hannah Montana with the live walkers.

(10:02):
Cry oh yeah, not not a lot. We did it.
We did the truck sing it audio Matt Headquarters and
that was crazy. You know, Molly Cirrus is hosting the
VMA's Man and one of the ideas we got is
for her intro to come out doing Hannah Montana with
the me goals with a live walkers. Has anybody reached
out to y'all about that yet? Come on, man, we

(10:24):
got we gotta press it. We got the press word
put my man Jesus Knife put that. Put the word
out on my show on Common since last week, and
we've been telling MTV that's with how Molly needs to
come out. Dude, that's a fool. She needs to come out.
That's the only way that she the host of the VMAs,
the intro doing Hannah Montana with a live orchestra with
the me goals. But what would you say, you guys?
The biggest love to date so far. I want to

(10:46):
straight the album Young writ Nation album. That's our this
this is our biggest projects and a lot of fans
and a lot of people to spread specting a good
grade from and we were ready to get all great,
you know what I mean. We've been tested by the
world and the people. So this is what this the
album is what's gonna get y'all on like failing and
get you at these award shows and stuff like that.

(11:07):
Definitely got you. Yeah, Young Rich Nation clothing line this
store too. Man. I know y'all see the dad. Everybody
in the world daving and we started now I'm saying,
kicking flavor, know what I mean? Follow the driven oil.
We got dab a swat. We ain't calling the sweat
and I'm on with dad. RP to Dad, and they're

(11:29):
trying to get them in. You know now you had
said before they came in, you went in to let
them know something when they came in here this morning
about their interviews. Oh yeah, like you know, I see
y'all opening up more in interviews now. And I think
that was one thing that people used to say about
y'all earlier that y'all used to come in interviews and
don't speak at all, like, don't say nothing interrogated, get

(11:49):
that sit back and observed during the interview. That's y'all,
y'all clean, Okay, y'all got y'all getting a lot of
legal money. Hey, I noticed that with a lot of
street rappers from Atlanta though they'd just be they act
like they still selling dopey. It's just it's just we
just like to let out music speak for ussever you

(12:09):
know what I'm saying, Because a lot of people find
personality and interview, but you were supposed to find an
a music and see what type of person he is
on that'sful, you know what I'm saying. So, yeah, we
were If it was up to yall, y'all wouldn't do
no anything to do. I wonder how the person there
with with with the music that that'll get, that'll get
more challenge to them to the game. You know what
I'm saying. You guys are talking a song with girls

(12:32):
and stuff. I can't even imagine you're having like in
death phone conversations timing and we can call I'll show
you what I call you. Who who need features on
your origin nation? Ya? Oh yeah? Chrib Brown shout Chris Brown. Well,

(12:53):
y'all forced to do any like I guess radio records,
like we need this kind of record, Chris Bron on
the hoop. Nah, Actually we had that record already. We
were like, man, we got to get one boy on
it because we was in La that chilling vibe listening
to music we had there, like a couple of songs
with French and like we was all there and so
we just been rocking there sing nothing about six months

(13:15):
ago and there we were just rocking in it and
time was right with this tone and get on the track.
Shot my boy kid red too to the label. Let
y'all pretty much do your thing you Oh no, we
just got a distribution deal with see the label. Okay, okay,
would y'all want to have um, would y'all want to
have a major label deal or just distribution? Would you
be interested in that? Because I'm sure people are coming

(13:36):
to you that a call letter down the line. We
need to see what we're going on with their project
out our album and that that ca when it come.
We're holding weight up on our shoulder right now, yeah saying.
And then another big thing we got going on is
a tour we just got added with Christ French, Feddy
wak U, Marian Tiana Taylor, one hell of a night, night,

(14:00):
it sound like one hell of a night. He do
y'all feel like y'all gave away too much original music
and the vault full of music when well, you know
you don't feel like that when you got them all,
when you got them stashed away, when you got the
stats on stats on stats, you don't feel like that.
Ain't a no foul. The folks who'll be writing the
songs and they're given too many, they're given too much
paper away. What do you think about artists who don't

(14:21):
write their own music? Rappers in particular, do you think
it magic? That's not making your artists? If you don't
make your if you don't draw your own painting. You know,
you know what I'm saying. You're coming to me goes too.
You're gonna see no paper, no pencil, no pad, no none,
straight on top of the door, do your own crop.
You know. It's just like you're going to Popeyes and
putting the putting the Popeye chicken on the plate. Too

(14:43):
much you cook for you man, that ain't right. I
got stopped doing that. People going. I can see the
coments right now. And you say, y'all don't rate they
can be like, oh well, y'all need to tell them,
tell them. Come on, Brandon, all three of you don't
write anything, you guys, all three of you go straight
off the head. Yeah, let the beat for about a
little minute and you go in there and say what
you want to say. But I think you know what y'all.

(15:04):
I think y'all offers. That's a different ability. Like I
think it's some people who who are great lyricists and
some people who can make great songs. Y'all make great records,
that's the most most most lyricists can just rap. Okay,
that's cool, but you can't make no records. Yeah, there's
a lot of rappers just rapping. You gotta putting them
thing together, the putting them songs together, making the people
feel the roller coaster field to ride, fear the way.

(15:24):
But what we're doing. Are you ever concerned about experimenting
with different sounds knowing that your fans expect a certain
kind of sound from you. No, we we musicians. You
know what I'm saying. You got everything. You just can't
go pos we can do you know, what I'm saying. Now,
You guys have said you want to meet Paul McCartney.
You think that's gonna happen anytime soon? Oh yeah, you

(15:47):

might hate on y'all a little bit. Hey, it'll happen.
Were were all said you'd be cool? Bro? All right,
y'all be blessed many'll do we have any idea about
the date at all? Is it gonna be in the
next couple of months? How you're gonna make this tour?

different though, because because the mixtape, y'all really don't gotta
do too much promo. You just throw it out online
and move about the way. Now we really do the
same promo on the line, you know what I'm saying,
kill the streets went, the streets up and take over
the streets out of the posters and the streets team.
We just don't do the press like how this run
is ain't not like the New York pressiment, ain't not
like the New York pressure. But yeah, always come see
