Jack & Jack Name Best Rapper Alive: Drake VS Kendrick Lamar
Transcript
00:00What's up? It's Jack Johnson and Jack Alinsky and we are Jack and Jack.
00:06Before we were kind of just messing around, making music, having fun and releasing it for our fans solely.
00:11But now it's more to the point where like, you know, we got to kind of do this for us as well and we have to make sure that we like our music.
00:18Because yeah, these are the songs we're performing every single night for, you know, thousands of nights, however many nights in the future, you know.
00:23So you got to make sure that you love what you're putting out.
00:25Just because you come from a social media based platform, just because you come from a world that might be viewed as, oh, you don't need as much talent as a traditional artist.
00:32It doesn't, you shouldn't be discredited. You know, Jack is an amazing singer.
00:36You know, I've been rapping since I was five years old and, you know, you can try and talk shit all day as much as you want.
00:40But like, at the end of the day, we know who we are musically and we've worked with some of the dopest people in the industry.
00:45And I think the biggest thing we just want people to know about us, though, is that we take this shit seriously.
00:48And it's, yeah, we never won't.
00:50The best thing for me is that, like, I can't imagine doing all this alone.
00:55Like, it's just so great to have, like, your best friend there the entire time because, I don't know, I feel like the road life would get lonely and, like, I can't imagine being a solo act.
01:02I grew up with this kid and I knew him when he was four years old.
01:05So I can look over in the bus and be like, hey, remember that one time?
01:08Like, it just, like, feels like home no matter where we go.
01:11If someone says Jack, we both turn.
01:13Yeah.
01:14And, you know, like.
01:15No, but his mom and dad, when we would go over to his house, like, they would call him Jack J.
01:19Like, but even though it's, like, their son.
01:20They're my parents.
01:21Yeah.
01:22Jack J, Jack G.
01:23Jack J is just fun.
01:24Yeah, it's fun.
01:27Dude, if I won the lottery right now, I'd put that in the banks.
01:30Because then I could be like, don't touch that.
01:32It doesn't exist.
01:33But if I had to, like, spend it on something.
01:35I lose all my jewelry.
01:36I would buy a jet.
01:37Like, if I won, like, a billion dollars, 100%, I'm getting a jet.
01:39Like, I need a jet.
01:40Ballin', huh?
01:41Yeah.
01:44But no, we really don't be fighting about stuff that much.
01:46If it is something, it's something small.
01:47And, like, I can't remember the last time we had a fight where, like, I actually, ever,
01:51where I felt like our friendship was on the line.
01:53Yeah, yeah.
01:54You know?
01:55Eminem, Andre 3000, Lil Wayne.
01:58Those are my, like, three guys.
01:59Those are my three biggest inspirations growing up.
02:01Eminem's fast-paced rapping, Lil Wayne's metaphor is Andre 3000's flow.
02:05I mean, just strictly rapping.
02:07Strictly rapping, Kendrick.
02:08Yeah, I'll give that to Kendrick all day.
02:09Like, Kendrick is...
02:10Drake has the hits.
02:11Unbelievable.
02:12And then, like, well, Kanye's got the hits, too.
02:14But Kanye can produce, too.
02:15He's not as relevant as Drake.
02:16No, of course.
02:17But he has over 100, you know, like, songs that he's produced that he's not even on that
02:20have, like, you know, gone gold.
02:21So it's like, it's just crazy.
02:22Yeah, like, Drake doesn't produce his own stuff.
02:24Like, I've heard he doesn't write a lot of his stuff.
02:26But I know Kanye, for a fact, produces and writes a lot of his stuff.
02:30But I think Kendrick has the strongest social message and Kendrick has the strongest lyrical
02:34ability out of all those rappers.
02:36He would be my number one out of that group, for sure.
02:38Someone that I always looked up to is Justin Timberlake, only because he is obviously an
02:42amazing vocalist and an amazing performer.
02:44But at the same time, he's just an all-around entertainer.
02:47And he obviously has starred in A-list movies with A-list actresses.
02:51Done the SNLs and everything.
02:53Yeah, exactly.
02:54He can make my grandma laugh and he can make my little girl cousin shiver.
02:58Yeah, whatever.
02:59Yeah.
03:00So, like, I would love to emulate what he's doing.
03:02Very true, yeah.
03:06Go-to dance move in the club.
03:07Honestly, like, I don't really like getting too involved.
03:10I just kind of just gig with their shoulders, you know?
03:12Just nothing too much.
03:13Like, this is, like, my favorite moment in the club, like, if this ever happens.
03:16It's not a dance move.
03:17You see, like, one of your homies way over in the side and then you just get hype as fuck.
03:20And you're like, what up?
03:22And that's, like, my favorite.
03:23That's, like, my...
