Starting point is 00:12:16 That was their inspiration? Really, like, when I was a little, like, kid that I wanted to be a rapper, like, you know, like, little power, you know? So, but then I started ball a lot, I would just, like, oh, that wasn't in the auction, you know what I was on? Really, man, just knowing I could do it for real. Like, you want to say, my Paul Estreya, he died. The day that we took off, he died that day, the man, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:42 so, but he, he had just told one that, like, he wanted to be coming to the studio brained girls and kicking it and all that, and like, you got a rap to him, like, they're right words, they rhyme in the world, quick sings do you then, for all that. Then I died, I made my first rap. They'd be gone on every since for real. What makes you do like the releases and shit?
Starting point is 00:13:05 That's a classic like scooter and see the... I mean, you know, they're really how I first started turning up, like getting a buzz for real, like rapping on beats that's already out. I want to really drop the songs that doing freestyles on nationality. And then like when I did the T-I-B-E's, when I put the money on with Expressway, that when I really took out. So now I'm always keeping, like, where I sparred with, like, on beat kids. So, you know, I just things like...
Starting point is 00:13:32 things are, though. I'm not every time, but what's that? And I was like, damn, anybody else make trip, but I'm gonna go crazy. He's ever. That's like, bro, that nostalgic beat. When I listen to your shit, bro, it's like live in these tapes, spin, real, a little, like,
Starting point is 00:13:46 he's to get that shit back in the day, but. So, he makes the music to make him a little get that old school, puts a 12-year-truck, bro. Get outside with that, be there, like he said, the rear the moist, but like, that was fired. That's like nostalgia. That's like nostalgia we grew up on, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:58 And well, I'm favorite about my old-school. So, shit, what's that? What's your guy? What you're trying to get? I want sitting in you. I like sitting to Sineauville. Yeah, dream park. I ain't gonna lie, I like I'm sitting to Mancolo too hard talk.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Yeah, yeah, but you really can't. Due to what, that's that shit, though. So, that's that one right there. I like, Erdy Kirk. That's a real pin my road. What's how the nigga exists? I'm gonna cause you're up because they hired them down up? Definitely, I mean, yeah, because up here you got snow and shit,
Starting point is 00:14:29 so you might get the little rustic till like, yeah, but the Midwest is always super. random you can always find some bar with some heat back there especially old shabby like that you can find some shit in sitting unsure I'm I'm a little cry yeah oh I don't know I do got old for now though I forget it's like you got one of the best old bar shit out yeah probably the oldest is got to come ready I got a new year than that muck out I paid all 24th yeah what's your bro my wife there I built on who's it was a must nine yeah six that six nine much time yeah so you stay your all fuck

Starting point is 00:15:34 Like, I don't know. I just know. I get one second. Keep scrolling and rock. But if I, if I land like five, six seconds on one beat, like, this and the tour, I don't be able to all or rap on. Sure.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Yeah, y'all don't know. It's just a feeling, like, you know what I'm saying? It might, I feel like it sounds insane, but it don't, like, friend was a drill beat. That would like, you go back and listen to that, they really like some gangster shit. Oh, yeah. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:16:01 I just said what I said on the head. Like, I ain't never really rap on the beach like that. So. Oh, long was it before? Like, you put that out on the take, or the take-off? Well, you were ready to start throwing the buzz, you know? Well, I put it on the album, J-Meet, and it was the only girl someone. So, like, like, why Kate went on again.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Yeah. But, like, they were going crazy to it, like, in strip clothes in Atlanta, but I ain't really put no gab behind it. I ain't make no content too. I ain't, I just put her on the app. But then on the looks, I was just like, I want a girl. The girl, oh, my deluxe, white cable going crazy. Like, you don't friend do.

Starting point is 00:16:48 then you got every girl tick stop, like, play your shit. What's that feels like? Do you dominate the women's side, too? And that's a real moneymaker. That's you crazy. You're crazy. If you're on the boat, my head, and Fred, too.

I just went to fiddle, like, driving on my own, so I was just jumping on other people's shit that I had did. The Hudson Mall for a little bit of some street shit but me on Disney York sent that song through
Starting point is 00:18:23 I just felt like the one other girl's song at the time. And right after that, I went white back street when I told him to say, I'm hungry, So, yeah, what I'm saying? When that's just feeling, for real, just the pain. It really just got a high feeling studio in the day. What I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, but the girl songs on the way, though, for sure.
Starting point is 00:18:41 They all got outside of that show. They did you. Yeah, yeah. You know, yeah. I just, I just, I feel like a lot of artists be trying to, I think, get more.

Starting point is 00:23:16 Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. A pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember.
Starting point is 00:23:30 I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
Starting point is 00:23:48 where people could call in and say, hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential. title for the podcast.
