Fire. Well, yes, Ihave plenty of skills. I model,

(02:38):
I act, and I do likemusic, so I'm slowly getting into that.
Let's see what I have coming upis a couple of movies I've done.
The first movie I would say it'scalled Started Up Crazy. I don't
know what date that's supposed to beannounced, but it should be on things
like you know, Amazon Prime andthose type of uh platforms. And as

(03:02):
far as like my modeling, I'mtrying to get into a fashion week if
I can. It's always been adream for me, so I've been trying
to like really get into that aswell. And as far as an artist,
I'm just like basically inching my wayinto you know, like learning how
to like really put out things andstream and things like that. I like

(03:22):
that because I saw you in thevideo Real with the real music VideA you
guys, and I saw you.I was like, Okay, you go
ahead, grad you was spicy.I was like, shoots, work that
girl. Yeah, damn, whogets out of here? Uh? But
yeah, you tell us more aboutyour background, like, well, how
did music get it into your life? Just put that way? Well,
I feel like it incorporates with everythingthat's going on, cause you know movie,

(03:44):
you know music is in movies.You know it's in commercials. So
like at first I started modeling andthen people are like, hey, why
don't you come be in a musicvideo. I've done plenty of those two.
I have like six or seven videosout now, and I'm planning to,
you know, keep building that up. But yeah, I like music
because it's something that everyone could bopto, everyone could understand. So and

(04:05):
it changes like how you feel sometimes. So that's what I love about it.
I love that. And you seemusic always been like a part of
your life. What young? Whatage around that time? Okay, so
I would say, well since ababy, like I remember like listening to
a leiyah and just getting hyped togo out, you know, like I
would just be bumping her while ridingon my bike. You know. It
was it was a good time.And I did all her moves like I

(04:28):
had core, you know, learnedthat choreography. I'm saying, No,
that's it's part of your life,right, that's some time about also,
So let's talk about your modeling.So how did you get into that.
Well, let's see, I firststarted like about eight or nine years ago.
Honestly, the first thing I reallydid was acting, cause I was
like an extra and you know,a lottery ticket. So that was amazing

(04:51):
to see, like being around thosebig cameras and you know how they shoot
things. It was just it waseverything that's amazing. So that's what got
me going. And then after thatI started networking, you know, and
uh I found out about more jobsthat was going on, and like,
the more people I got to know, the more projects I found out about.
That's when I started, like,you know, collaborate with more people.

(05:13):
And then they were like, oh, my goodness, you're good at
this. Oh you're good at that. Let's just you know, use you
when we can use you. Youknow, that's amazing how long you've been
doing from everything from the beginning formodeling and beating them video oh oh okay,
model that gotch okay. So youknow, of course as a kid,
we practice, you know, wewere on our friends and we're just
playing around them. But then itgot a little bit more serious once people

(05:36):
started getting an equipment and really likeunderstand like how to like really use these
things, these tools. And that'swhen I started like really trying to like
get paid to do these this typeof work or you know, like you
know, keep billing my experience upso that way I know what to do
when and do'em and how to doit. I love that. That's what
if you have a passion. Ialways to everybody that just cool for it,

(05:58):
like don't give up, like justkeep or shit, you know,
and you know we come out ofit, you know, Yeah, mistakes
come, you know. I hadlearned a lot like not to get like
mixed up in a lot of things, you know, because some things will
lead you to where you don't wantto go. So I just had to
take a pause and realize, likeis this what I really want? Like
could I really see myself doing this? You know exactly? I love I
don't that's I'm talking about. Igot another question. I ask you,

(06:20):
how did you get your name?I had to ask them, sorry,
before we get to say I getit. Yeah, no, definitely.
So this is the thing I gott T from when I was a baby,
and like my cousins used to callme t T all the time because
it's short for Taja. So basically, yeah, it's just like an aka
name. And then I put firein front of because well I'm fired,

(06:41):
so so I incorporate it. Ilove that. No, it really doesn't
explain who you are. I lovethat you get that passion and I see
it like you you're like when youready, you got It's like I see
that, So that's what's up.I like what I do. It's exciting
work. You know, you getto learn and you get to incorporate your
own ideas sometimes. So that's whatI like about it too. I love
that. Now my question to youis, let's get back to music.

(17:25):
It's aunes. Yeah, it's sotrue, so true. Now besides your
projects, now, let's go backunder the bit at the beginning of your
time as like the artists and theproducer talk more about that. At the
beginning started like I started joining Beastwhy two thousand and four, okay,
and the first artist I made thefirst beat I made how but he can't

(17:45):
know his name though, but ohmy god, yeah, wait a minute,
listen to your shoulders. Oh that'swhat song called mission on your shoulds.
Okay, shout out of my firstbeating two thousand and four. And
then I moved doing like two thousandand five, two thousand six. Yes,
started working a lot of different allthis out there with beat before I
started rapping, okay, but beforethat time, okay, I would just

(18:06):
I'm not I want to rap,but the people was getting red site or
whatever. No marapping on my beathere like yo, man, I gotta
burn my own ship. Oh mygod, that's why I want to get
into the like I like that mywrestling peas to my cousin, he pushed
me on into it. Okay,I remember that you told me that because
then he rapped to but he's morelike a DMX rapper. Oh man,

(18:27):
yeah, yeah he was like becauselike he was like, yo, why
are you rap? Did you sayI don't sound like a New Yorker rapper?
He sounded why don't know. Mycousin always told me that, like
I don't know, but the style, yeah, he's more like a DMX.
Okay, you got that. Ican't like the deep voice. I

(18:48):
wish I could round like that,but I can't. Yeah. Maybe I
gotta just a certain way. Yeahno, just be you man, start
up. You don't want to gethurt performing now, yeah, just be
be. Yeah. And I startedfocused on an album, okay, like
I didn't focus on an album Fridge, I would just making the song,

(19:11):
doing mad song at that time.Yeah yeah. And then I started sitting
down, never just coming out becausethat was all on Z one to Z
one song I was. I wasafraid to come out at that time.
Yeah, I was afraid. Iwas afraid to come out with any music.
Really, I was more depending onZ one music. Like you know,
He's like, yo, lyrics,come on this track. I'm on
the track the horns. Wow,that's how you guys are? I see

(19:34):
now that makes sense. No,somebody my cousin, he was like,
yo, you gotta you gotta branch, mmm do something else. Yeah,
yeah, I love time. Can'tbe scared. You gotta branch, you
gotta you gotta go do it.If not with you, you get live
in an Asian around like I couldhave, would have, should have.
And now you're seeing now you're you'reachieving it. You know what I'm song,
that's amazing. So your your cousinreally was like the the rock that

(19:56):
kind of pushed you. I lovethat lazy you know the water as well
about yourself with other people. You. Yeah, and I think like that.
I was just new. I wasjust nervous. I don't know,
but he was more of a aggressivewhen I was saying, but he just
put me out and you made asong. Actually yeah, I made about

(20:18):
yeah yeah, no shoutter that's beautiful. Nice help uh so let's talk about
now from that point on your growthas an artist. You know, like
the first album that came out camefirst album and it was called Stayed over
with music. Yes, I wasjust re calling a whole bunch of song
and I had one song it calledopen Bars. Yes. Oh man,

(20:41):
now we're going way back music videolike, yeah, I didn't hand the
videos. And do you want tosay he was she was video? Yeah,
so he shot by video and Iwas nervous too, Oh wow,
this is this. I was nervous. And you look at that video.
Im, I was nervous. Ididn't. You can't even tell though.
Yeah he was winging it. Yeahhe was. Ye, we got this.

(21:02):
I was like, I was nervous, but I try to make sure
that don't look like I'm nervous,right he did. When we did the
video, I was like, welooked like we've been doing this for a
long time. Yeah. Yeah,yeah, that's good. There's a chemistry.
That's what's about to also, andunless you guys work well, you're
good. Yeah. I to loveyou a better time exact than to work

(21:22):
with someone going against you. Exactly. It should be together always always,
definitely. So I mean look atit. See it's weird, Like we're
talking back at the beginning time,right, and like look at that now.
My question to you now from openbars to now have you seen your
growth? How much have you grownfrom as an artist? Big change,

(21:42):
especially when I first met him,like he was very quiet. Now he's
just more outspoken. Yeah. Yeah, wow, I remember a little bit
about that too. This is justsome like it was real yeah, real,
No, everybody knows who Real is. That's real. Yeah him.

(22:03):
That's amazing though, I mean yeah, and I mean like that's my question
too, was like how do youfeel like to see the impact you have
given to other people and out newartists and artists that are so are inspired
by your music, Like how doyou feel about that? It's good?
I like seeing that. Like mycousin, My cousin gave me the name
Real. I mean he gave meany he said, used to my name
used to be t before. Yeah, and then he was like, you

(22:26):
gotta change that name. The teabounce you guys played that it's not yeah,
it's not kind of like wrapping itup name. You're calling me real,
Yeah, but you had a meetingfor it, so they lift forever
my lyrics. Yeah, that's why. There you go. But that's the
name he gave me so like something, No, it got me lost.
Come one day I told him anotherartist that, yeah, my name is

(22:48):
real. Then one day he wastalking to me like, you don't say
me, I'll go to the studiowhen they know what I'm saying. Real,
Oh could I know who you're talkingabout here? Like who who are
you talking about? And it stuckwith you after that, Yeah, oh
yeah, you're right now. Yeah, Okay, it doesn't sound seem it

(23:08):
seems strange, like like people can'tlike get with it exactly, like it
has to have a catch to it. That's true. True. Yeah,
it's ex time though eventually, likewhen people like your stage, I'm like,
oh yeah, that's that's that sameperson. Yeah, I'm oh yeah,
yeah, oh god, that's anotherwhole story, another thing for that.

(23:30):
No, but like I said,you know interesting, like now you're
looking back like wow, you knowthis is the beginning is Yeah, I
have a lot of audience that theirmusic was different audience. Yeah, looking
back from that, yeah, ohit's fun. Yeah yeah definitely, because
you at least you know where you'restaying. That's what the difference is,
very true, very true. Yeah. You just do your thing, you

(23:52):
work, you put the product,you know, the products out whatever you're
doing, and that you like you. Yeah, it's a bottom exactly exactly.
But now my question I was forboth of you guys, right,
so prior to the collaboration y'all workingon, do you have something else you
want to do with him in thelong run, like another you know,
another thing you guys are working on. Eventually, I would like to do

(24:14):
another music video like we did thatwith no problem. We had a good
time doing it, so like Iwouldn't mind doing that. Like the ideas
what we come up with or likewhat we could you know, act out
together. That should be fun.I know, I loved it one you
I was like yeah, I waslike her, I didn't Philip beat yeah,

(24:36):
oh yeah it was good. Itwas good. It was good.
He was like yeah, yeah,yeah, you would not let that mask
go. Oh lord, COVID outthere. I'm not getting none of that
stuff out there. No, that'samazing. But yeah, like I said,
both of you guys just amazing andmakes to me you finding a person

(24:57):
and to see I mean, youhave a lot of great potential and I
see walcome and just just believe everythingyou're doing. You're on the right path.
Yeah. Just he's a good guy, Yeah exactly. And you you're
in good hands, you know,and I'm giving you the blessing you welcome.

(25:17):
Yeah. Oh yes, listen,I am down with that. Yes,
you know, you have fun duringBoss, He's like, oh yeah,
it was like a regular night.I felt like it was sexy.
Oh oh, you's get baby afterthe show. That's awesome. That's awesome.

(25:44):
So now my question to you aswell is what do you see in
the future in your life in generalbesides the artists and the fashion scene.
Honestly, I thought about maybe beinga comedian only because like people always say,
like, oh, you always gotthe as jokes, and I guess
how I deliver it. They're like, oh, it's so funny. Is
this because the way you said it, Like I just can't stop laughing.

(26:06):
I keep cracking up. So thatmight complainter on, but I just wanted
to, you know, basically startlike where you know I was heading at
first, and just finish that andthen I might move on. Hey,
you never know. I mean listen, you get like the music going,
you got the fashion, you gotout the girl take advantage of everything.
N No, but that's good becausethat's something you love to do, and

(26:29):
that's something if you know that couldbe actually missing for your pockets and you
love what you're doing. It's noteven a job, you know. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, definitely. Ilove to laugh. Oh man,
we're in the right you're in theright space. You're like, oh yeah,
no. So prior to that,guys, my thing is like,
besides the future, you're read tome what you're gonna do when everything,

(26:49):
and asking questions for year as well. Real yeah, yeah, saying question
for year as well, like whatdo you see in the future, Like
I'm seeing to help them all thisout, you know. I mean I'll
love to see that looking looking forthat help. Yeah. Some people don't
guide them, right yep, yeah, I mean put anything and get head.

(27:11):
Oh the word. I don't likestuff like that, you know,
I mean, like this help helpthe person out of he if she or
he need help. Yeah, becauseI didn't get the help say in the
beginning yep, Troyn never. Yeah, definitely that's good because I think a
lot of like you mentioned before,a lot of artists we've seen in a

(27:32):
puiring now and it's indie scene.It's they get only like intips. It's
in the bits, you know whatI'm saying, Like you only get an
excertain information, and we need tohave like more as independent artists to unite
and like kind of build with oneanother and give each other information that's gonna
pass around for people, the rightinformation like the int yes, because it's
like do you see they do theydo that a lot of times for mainstream

(27:55):
Yeah. Yeah, but it's likeus, we don't get that kind the
stick exactly. And and then sometimeswe like these other labels that they do
what they want because we are notknowing the information that we need to know,
so we don't get got you know, they don't want a life.
So you have to like always educateyourself. I always tell like other artists
who like educate, look everything that'sout there, business books, bought everything,

(28:18):
ye, anything, so that wayyou don't get stuck somewhere exactly word
in trouble later on. Yes,yes, you have to know everything,
like your royalties that you mentioned everything, Yes, to protect your assets,
to protect your name, your brand, because you are a brand. So
people have to understand respect the endof the day, you are who you
are, your unique You're your ownperson. But they have to also respect

(28:41):
that. You know, you areyour own person and you bring a lot
to the table, and you don'tknow why you're playing with your money or
your time as a lot of asout there who don't know stuff like that.
Most of them nothing. Yeah,just like the music and just putting
stuff. I learned that hallway too, so Cloud two thousand and four.

(29:03):
Yeah, I don't know about beingmine. I didn't know about copy of
the same here. I found aline that stuff like around two thousand,
around two thousand and thirteen. Wow, so four or five six have been
I've been doing all the beats,right, but I ain't know about copywriters.

(29:26):
he got some nice media, youngman. Don't you not much of what
is being? I at you?I mean, I see I found Yeah,
I just took my time. Butthat's good that he went out his
way to make sure you got theknowledge. A lot of people don't do
that. Yeah, yep, they'rejust true like hanging out. Yeah,
that you have stuff. Who stoopidout there? Yep, An you want

(29:47):
to know why you're not going furtheror why you feel like you're always stuck
exackly that's so true, so trueyourself. Yeah, let's keep it to
myself. Yeah, but they're blockingtheir blessings by down you see. That's
why I told we were talking aboutthat a lot of times when people do
that, they like, especially theybeing greedy instead of just giving people the
right information. Hey, you knowI know this, this maybe help you
for you know, we carew whatever, great, thank you for let me

(30:08):
know. We cannot go pass itto another person they need it, but
they don't do that, so theyblocked their own blesses my by you know
what I'm saying by being stingy aboutit. Yeah, you have to,
it's so much. But just youguys, just keep focused on your on
your career, your grab, youryour work, all always working on my
crapt Yes, yeah you might know, yes, yes, that's it.

(30:30):
Definitely try not to just walk intoanything because you never know if that situation
can put you further back then forward. Yes, so very true, very
true. You might know about this, listen, not too so. I
mean, so my question to you, is any shout outs you have because
you right social you set social mediarights. You did it already, so

(30:55):
just both hook it up, bothof them. Go ahead. Really,
yeah, it makes us l eZ. That's some one. That's Graham,
that's one. Facebook. Yes,YouTube, it's just lazy lyrics and
a lot of people fucking name up. Excuse Megage. I was just you
know what I'm gonna say, andthat's stuff. Yeah, you're go on
YouTube. You can't find you.Lyrics is like what I Z exactly makes

(31:25):

sounds similar. Yes, yes,goodness. And then remember you don't forget
the underscores and those are the worstbecause they'd be going and be like y'all

you. Don't be scared. Isyour grandmother on the outher side of life?

have to do with messages. Sosomething with drums. It's something with ancestors.
I don't I don't know why hehad the grandmother involved in this.
But if I'm right, just sayI'm right. So I'm gonna say,
is a message something with music withbeats? We are saying that, but

(32:30):
it's with the drums. Am Icorrect? Let's make sure I would say
the opposite sex. But no,okay, god, yeah, okay,
okay, but everything else seems true. Okay. Well, just when you're
at home, if you have drums, keep practicing that because they're proud of
you. Yeah, you know,it's so crazy that you say that.

(32:52):
Listen. That's why I don't wantto scare here. I'm sorry, I'm
sorry, because I have to sendmessages. I said, it's it's weird.
I just said grandma, but hesays, obviously it was a grandfather.
When you're at home alone, youhave a tendency sometimes singing in the
house and you're like, well,I don't have to there, but they're

(33:15):
they're in spirit. I don't know. I'm getting this. They're in spirit.
Just keeping them I said. Withthe music, I don't know.
He's the first time meeting you,first time. Just keep working on that.
That is your work of line beats, because that's gonna help with y'all
working together with a collaboration of music. That's gonna continue while I'm passing on
the legacy for him. Okay,So he's just sending the message to you,

(33:37):
and he's there also to let youknow that he also comes by to
see your grandmother. Oh wow.So just this is what I'm telling you.
I he knows, he knows whatI'd be doing, so he knows
what I But the the part withthe drums when you're at home mentioned his
name. Next time I have astory, I guess I'll give him a

(33:58):
shout out to my Yeah. No, and this is pretty recent. I
have to say, rest in powerto my grandfather. We call him Big
Daddy. Yeah, yeah, hepassed recently. I just went to the

music, it's the music. It'smusic. He loved blues, bb kicking

so even though he wasn't my biologicalgrandfather, but he raised you.
Yes he did. Yes. Andthe thing is is that, like my
actual biological grandfather, his family they'reinto music. So I think it's pretty

(34:44):
dope because they put me on thedrums and they were like, why are
you doing this? Like you've donethis before? Spirit Like what, it's
the spirits, it's a meaning toI said, when the music thing,

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
