07:00Or.
07:00You said.

07:03Yeah.
07:04Cause.
07:04I mean.
07:05Cause you're doing it for someone else.
07:06And then.

07:08They probably have a different view from what they want.
07:11I'm sorry.
07:12Alright.
07:13Alright.

08:33Where I.
08:34You know.
08:34I.
08:34I wouldn't see.

08:39You know.
08:39On that kind of vibe.
08:41Or whatever.
08:42You know what I mean.
08:43Right.
08:43Rhyming.
08:44But yeah.
08:44You know.

08:59That I probably wouldn't talk about.
09:01In my.
09:02In my rhymes.
09:03Or whatever.
09:04But.
09:04You know.
09:05I could live.

18:36be interesting to get the feedback but yes that's going to be dropping uh later on this month to god's
18:42show five 29. wow that's amazing that's amazing that's amazing um so so so so by the way i wanted
18:53to ask you so you
18:55you you you you're now in baltimore currently right how is that like like looking from from
19:01stent island to stent island to what was the was the in terms of music was the expectation different
19:12um it's kind of crazy you said that i mean
19:16i think now now it's it's it's a little it's a little crazy i mean when i moved here
19:25um i kind of found found my tribe so to speak and um you know um i i met a
19:34lot of dope emcees a lot of
19:36dope producers and i um you know we just kept in contact you know um but now i don't i
19:42don't i don't
19:43know i don't i don't i don't trip over that like you know people always say man it's hard to
19:47find good
19:47music um i i never i never was uh one to be like you know complaining about that i always
19:56i always
19:57look for it and find it you know i mean good music has always been around bad music has always
20:02been
20:02around you know what i'm saying it's just that you gotta be you can't just be lazy back in the
20:06day
20:08um we were kind of spoon fed with you know through the radio it just so happened that a lot
20:13of good
20:14shit was coming out back then but now you know you got to look a little bit you know what
20:18i mean
20:18so um you know of course they got the trap stuff going on here and um i can't think of
20:28the other
20:28genre but you know they got all the stuff that that's going on everywhere you know i mean but how
20:34i
20:35look at it is it's balanced man you know good music is good music whether it's trap whether it's
20:40folklore whether it's country you know good music is good music um in fact i've heard a lot of
20:48whack boom bat more so than i've heard um you know trap music you know to be honest with you
20:53you know what i mean good music is good music that's just it that's how i look at it
20:58for sure for sure for sure for sure well so do you also plan on switching on other stars
21:07what you mean like what trap music or something yeah no no no no no no i'm staying in my
21:14lane i'm
21:15just saying i'm not hating on it and it's you know i my my palette as far as music music
21:22is is pretty
21:22diverse man like you know i mean if if i like it i like it if i don't i don't
21:28but i'm not i'm not one
21:30that's just stuck in in um in an era or in terms of listening i make what i make you
21:39know what i'm
21:39saying but i listen to different stuff man you know what i mean yeah yeah i mean like any
21:46they like any specific producers or musicians that you're currently listening to that that you feel
21:54like you know what i'm currently listening to yeah i mean honestly i've been i've been listening
22:03to a lot of jr swifts because we try to get this record done i've been listening to that um
22:11i don't know man uh i mean you know i i don't know man like i i'm all over the
22:21place man i mean
22:22my man my man sub substance 810 he just he just dropped the record with loretta the live share you
22:30know what i'm saying um i've been bumping that um you see dead poets um with ito and um with
22:41future
22:41wave i like that um that new joint with black thought i'm rocking with that you know what i'm saying
22:47um yeah yeah but other than that i really i've been trying to train myself because i'm a fan you
22:54know i mean i'm definitely a fan first but i've been trying to train myself not to be so engulfed
23:02in
23:02and listening to other people you know i mean so that i can get my done you know what i
23:07mean um
23:09no slight against them but yeah you know got some dope we got some we got some dope producers in
23:16here
23:16now though mighty healthy you know what i'm saying dope yeah mighty healthy check out my uh mighty cannons
23:23you know what i'm saying yeah yeah but um yeah man for sure so what is it like like because
23:32like with
23:33you guys um with the bump up there right you guys are very uh um like when it comes to
23:40consistency you
23:41guys are good at that what what do you think um what what what is that you think that the
23:47the young
23:47musicians of today are probably missing because you know like they'll drop one album but then you know
23:55it's not it's not it's no longer um relevant to another thing i don't know man you know i sometimes
24:04i
24:04feel like i fall i kind of fall in that category because for a minute you know i i really
24:09had a um
24:11a very antiquated way of thinking in terms of how often i wanted to drop but i noticed that my
24:18contemporaries
24:19um tend to you know they drop in six seven joints and you know i mean the shit is the
24:26quality of the
24:27music um you know some of them is is not dwindling um so i know i kind of changed my
24:35my point of view
24:37um when it comes to me dropping one one album you know uh every year or twice you know every
24:46two years
24:47and shit like that um because it's different you know i mean like people um people consume music
24:53differently now it ain't it ain't the same as it was you know back in the day for sure for
25:02sure yeah
25:02do you think it could be um corporate institutions that are responsible for that or it's just people
25:14um oh it's just i don't know i'm not sure i'm i don't really get to i just it's the
25:18way of the
25:18world man you know back in the day um you know everything is just kind of like microwave you know
25:25what i'm saying so it's like back in the day you could sit on an album for two two years
25:30and be
25:30all right you know what i mean um i i felt i feel like the downfall of that though is
25:35you know
25:37people really don't get time to sit down with the music which can cause people not to really want to
25:45put too much into um um their work so to speak to make it us you know something that people
25:53can sit
25:53back and really listen to because it's like once that album comes out the next week it's like
26:00they want something else you know i mean and if you're lucky you might get two weeks but
26:06i i i still i'm stubborn with that man i'm still like you know fuck that man you know i'm
26:13not going
26:13to just put out for me i'm not just going to put out music because i want to keep up
26:19with the joneses
26:20you know what i'm saying that's just i don't know you know that might be my downfall that might be
26:28something that has set me apart from everybody else i'm not sure but all i know is like the
26:34people that i looked up to and the people that i admire you know they always did things um
26:42by their rules you know what i'm saying i mean you know it's always rules that you got to follow
26:46and
26:46shit like that but you know they they moved to their you know to the to the beat of their
26:50own drum
26:51and they were them they were themselves unapologetically you know what i'm saying so
26:57um i don't know man i you know i'm really um when it comes to my art man i'm i'm
27:04really um
27:06dead set on making sure that i put out um what i feel is is is my is my best
27:13work so
27:15that may take a little time you know i mean i get into it i get into it with a
27:19lot of my team
27:20members because of that but you know i'm just i'm just me i'm stuck with me like that so it
27:27is what it
27:27is for sure um speaking of you being able like to to to to take your own time um what
27:37would be your
27:38advice for other artists and being able to handle the pressure handle the pressure oh yeah
27:49um i say pressure creates diamonds you know what i'm saying so take that pressure and and use it as
28:00uh as gasoline to keep keep doing with you know doing what you do um consistency
28:08see is key you know what i mean um
28:15and believe in yourself man like all that people you know people going to tell you what you are
28:25no you got to believe who you know you got to believe in yourself you know what i'm saying
28:30more so you got to be your biggest supporter
28:34because ain't nobody gonna support you more than you you know what i mean so you got to root for
28:40yourself you got to believe in yourself and everybody you know what's crazy everybody's not
28:45gonna believe in your vision and that's crazy like if you look at if you look at a lot of
28:50the greats you
