like I'm talking Kevin Gate.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
You know, like sometimes like you get features.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
All the features on my project are blessings, but sometimes
you might get a feature and it just it just
might just just throw.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Away versus what it's supposed to do. Don't do what
it's supposed to do.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Man, So it's a rare thing for like somebody like
Gates to show so much love like it was he
did a real he.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Was really like you gotta really be tapped in with
him for him to rock with you like that too,
Like yeah, I kind of know he kind.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Of go off. He don't go off.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
It ain't money, it ain't not it's just love, you
know what I'm saying. Like literally, like I hate Kris
Shana because I know Kris Shan is like super close
to him, and like I hate Kashana. I'm like, man,
it's only one person I want on this remix because
like it was doing so well by itself and there's
only one, the real, the original real. Yeah, And I
(03:03):
said to the Christian, I swear dude, Gates sent that
verse back.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
To me in like thirty minutes.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Bro Fire, He's just happy to be in the studio.
He felt the vibe knocked it out.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
And he smacked it. He gave me something for real,
for sure, for real.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Okay, Now, look, I was talking about you to my partners. Man,
you know, big time songwriter like yourself in your artist vibe, Yo,
what do you enjoy more?
Speaker 4 (03:27):
Man, it's tough because, like, honestly, like I love like
expressing myself like through my music as an artist because
I get to talk about.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
More personal things to me.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Whereas like songwriting, there's part of me like like there's
a super like urban side of me, you know what
I'm saying. And then there's a super R and B
side of me. There's a super pop side of me,
you know what I'm saying. Like there's an emo side
of me, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
My question to you is when you're tapping into your
artist bag. Sometimes I know you hear a song, you
be like this five, I need to get it. It's
such and such, But man, I need to keep it.
What determines you keeping it versus giving it to somebody?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Man, it's a struggle.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
I just need to go to Chris Brown. But then
you be like, I need to keep this.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I mean, it's just like very sometimes because like I said,
like when I'm writing records for myself, it really be
for myself, Like it might be like about some personal
shit about like my like upbringing and shit like that,
so it's impossible to let those go. So like I'm like,
I'm a real like chameleon when it comes to like songwriting, so.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Like which is a talent of itself for sure.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Like so when I'm writing for an artist, like if
I'm writing for Cardi, like it's ool.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
So what you say what you're writing for If I'm writing.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
For Cardi, like, it's it's for Carti, it ain't for me,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
So it don't all run into those too.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Many often, And then I honestly feel like I don't
get to attest to a song enough to be like,
so yeah, I really don't have a fear of not
being being able to write a hit. I'd have done
it so many times. It's like I'm not like, man,
I might not be able to write another song. A
lot of times people want to hold on the sun
because they might feel like they can't do it again.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
But predental, So I was talking to my partners we
was talking about. I just feel like in our community,
we're the only community that hate on each.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Other when we get old.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
For sure, when I see in other ethnicities when artists
get old, they still be rocking out, still going on
the road, it's almost like a yay, you know what
I'm saying, Like he's.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Even more a lore at this particular moment.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Why do you think that in our competition, it's almost
like you got to stay as young as possible.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Man, can't get old.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Man, Honestly, I just feel like we not even just
on getting old or get I just feel like we
gatekeep a lot, you know, against each other, Like we
were so pent against each other in competition. I don't know,
Like it's a weird thing that we have in our
culture that I feel like only the big dogs.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Can be able to change, you know what I'm saying,
And that that's just the way it is. It sucked though.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
For someone that is coming in the game, like how
you did songwriting? Yeah, what's some advice you would give
a young songwriter that's kind of discouraged at the moment.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Man, you gotta work through it, Like you know what
I'm saying, It was man, it was times where I
had the number one record in the world and shit,
I don't get paid for that record for nine months.
So you know what I'm saying, You gotta work through
the struggle. You gotta work through those times where you
feel like it's I feel like it's like to have
ups and downs as a songwriter. It's a benefit because
it's like people have ups and downs, So music needs
(06:35):
to have ups and downs. Like sometimes I just want
to listen to Sha just when I'm just in a mood,
you know what I'm saying. But sometimes I might want
to listen to Travis Scott, you know what I'm saying.
So it's like different energies for different things. So as
a songwriter, man, just keep creating, man, even when you
you know, down on your dick, you don't feel like it, like,
keep creating.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Okay, I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Now on the flip side, it's time for you got
me fucked, Dug. What are some things that get on
your nerves? Like David, it was on the show you
said he hate FaceTime, Pretty V said she hate what
someone called her back to back to back to back.
What is something that gets on Ivery Scott's last damn
nerve man.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
I hate when I hate when people listen to like
demos or music like either like this out the out
their phone or like in the worst conditions, because it's like,
we bust our eyes to make this music high quality.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
We spend top dollar to make sure our music is
on a quality level.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Like, so you gotta respect what is that to listen to?
Get some headphones? Man, get some headphones.
