00:00Your story is incredible. Now, first of all, we got to move back and we're going to set the scene for everybody who might not be up.

00:06We're going to go two years ago.

00:07Okay.

00:08Two years ago, there was a kid that was working in the TGI Fridays that was rapping under his breath while he was bringing people their food.

00:14Yeah, for sure.

00:16Was he messing up people's orders?

00:18Nah, but he was, if you order like a side of shrimp, one of them was definitely missing.

00:25It happens.

00:26It happened.

00:27It happened.

00:28Several times.

00:30All right.

00:30So was that kid ready for what's going on right now?

00:34Oh, he was too ready.

00:35Was he ready, though?

00:36His ego was ready, but was he ready?

00:38Nah, he was ready for sure.

00:40He was more than ready.

00:43I don't know.

00:43He might have been.

00:45He might have been.

00:46All right.

00:46Well, I say that to slide to now 170 plus, 170 million plus streams that you got going on right now.

00:56170 million streams on this album that's just been out a few weeks.

01:01Dang.

01:01Really.

01:02I didn't know that.

01:03Yeah.

01:03Like, total to date, 171 million streams.

01:08So now...

01:09I'll take it.

01:10You'll take it.

01:11How does that feel knowing that that kid who was in there in the restaurant trying to get on is now proving everybody that he was right?

01:20It feels good, but also I still feel like I still got a lot to prove.

01:26You know what I'm saying?

01:26I'm still like in a...

01:28We done kicked in the door.

01:29We in the door.

01:31Now it's time to renovate the house.

01:33You know what I'm saying?

01:33And get something out of it.

01:34You know what I'm saying?

01:36So it definitely feels good, though.

01:38It definitely feels good.

01:40You just turned 21 and you did something special for your 21st birthday.

01:44Where were you for your 21st birthday?

01:47You were in the studio with somebody.

01:48Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:49Dre.

01:49I was in the studio with Dr. Dre.

01:50Yeah.

01:51Dr. Dre.

01:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:53Hell of a 21st birthday.

01:54I mean...

01:55Hell of.

01:56I mean, how does...

01:57Okay, for a hip-hop kid, for all of these people who know who Dre is, how did it feel

02:03to be in that studio, in that session with Dre, not only knowing who you are, but vibing

02:09and feeling everything that you're doing?

02:11Because he gave you a hell of a cosign.

02:13Oh, man.

02:14That shit felt crazy.

02:16I was like, what the fuck?

02:18Like, I'm sorry.

02:20I was like, what the fuck is life?

02:22That shit was crazy.

02:23I mean, like, Dr. Dre is pretty much one of the, like...

02:28Well, I can say he's like Quincy Jones, but then again, you've chopped it up with Q, too.

02:32I mean...

02:33Yeah, for sure.

02:33You know, so, again, being so young in this game, and we're going to talk about kind of

02:38the perception of youth in hip-hop, but, like, to have that kind of cosign come from

02:44the doctor.

02:45I mean, he's grabbed 50 Cent.

02:46He's grabbed Eminem.

02:48You know, he's put out, you know, all of the NWA product that we know and everything

02:52else, for him to look at you and say, man, I think you got it.

02:55I mean, to quote him, he said, boy, this boy is hard.

02:58Like, and I know I've said the same things about you, but I ain't Dre.

03:02Yeah, for sure.

03:03So, when Dre say it, that's got to put a battery in your bag.

03:07Oh, yeah, for sure.

03:08Definitely.

03:11Damn, yeah.

03:12It's definitely like, what the fuck?

03:13You know what I'm saying?

03:14Like, that's the God.

03:16You know what I'm saying?

03:17So, it's definitely like, I'm like, man, a little old me, you know what I'm saying?

03:20So, it's just dope.

03:21If you, because I know we're doing a session here where we're going to play music for people

03:25because I want them to get a vibe.

03:26Okay.

03:28If you could play brand new You Just Meeting Dre, if you could play one record off of Lost

03:36Boy and say, Dre, I'd like you to hear my demo, what record would that be?

03:41Like, I don't know.

03:48Hmm.

03:49Maybe.

03:54Shit, I don't know.

03:55This one is, see?

03:56It's like telling you one of your kids.

03:57Maybe, it's probably R&P because Anderson's on it.

04:00You know what I'm saying?

04:01Because that's the connect.

04:02Okay, that makes sense.

04:04All right.

04:05Probably Have Mercy.

04:06Maybe.

04:07Have Mercy's fire, too.

04:08That's one of my favorites.

04:08I want to play one of them.

04:10A Thousand Words.

04:11A Thousand Words.

04:12How's that?

04:12That's my first one right here.

04:14Okay, dope.

04:14That's, I mean, there's something in your music where it's not just what people consider the

04:21young, they call it mumble, they call it new millennial, they call it, it's a bunch of

04:26names and none of them are really respectful.

04:29And then you step forward and a lot of people who had a lot to say about the new hip hop artist

04:35all ran to you and say, yo, this dude's different.

04:38Yeah.

04:39And we're going to talk a little bit more about that, but I want you guys to get a taste

04:44of it.

04:44For those of you who haven't downloaded it yet, cop that.

04:47All everybody on wild94.1.com, we're about to go in.

04:50Let's do Thousand Words first and let's vibe out why everybody's eating pizza and we're going

04:55to chill with YV and Cordae.

04:56I got pizza?

04:57Hell yeah, we do.

04:58Oh man, say less.

04:59It's right there behind that door.
