I don't even know I'm recording an album.
I just record shit.
And then this is like, you look up,
you got like 50 to 100 songs
and then you just start putting it together.
You know what I mean?
Just let the music pretty much talk to you.
Like I think if I go in there with the mindset of like oh it's studio time or studio season
or it's album season, you kind of start overthinking shit and it don't really come to you naturally.
So for me, it's like where about feeling and I record all my music like on my iPhone, like
use me after that shit on my iPhone, like with the earpiece and shit.
They ain't so.
It never stops, the recording process never stops.
It's like when they're about to fill it, I can go.

and I got to defeat you, they're like,
oh you just singin' to me.

that exists to empower listeners to rise above their struggles, break free from the chains of
trauma and silence the negative voices that have kept them small.
Through raw conversations, real stories, and actionable guidance, you can learn to face
the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify, the
thing that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain, this is the struggle, this is
the thing that's in front of me.
You can't make that mountain move without actually diving into it. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to
conquer the things that once felt impossible and step boldly into the best version of yourself
to awaken the unstoppable strength that's inside of us all. So tune into the podcast,
focus on your emotional wellbeing and climb your personal mountain. Because it's impossible
for you to be the most authentic you. It's impossible for you to love you fully if all you're doing is
living to please people. Your mountain is that. Listen to Made for This Mountain

In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi for a conversation that's anything
but ordinary.
We dive into the competitive world of streaming,
how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold,
connecting audiences with stories
that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.

discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that
they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology,

["Good Company"]
I love filming the movie.
I guess because I've been ripping and running my whole life, so when I get a chance to do a film, I get a chance to actually be in the movie. I guess because I've been ripping and running my whole life.
So when I get a chance to do a film, I get a chance to actually be in the city.
It sits still for three or four months.
That shit is rare being a rapper, like, you know what I mean?
Being a musician, anything can happen at any given time.
The schedules can change at any given time.
But you know, being I'm just so used to just the clustering of that shit.
And anytime I get a chance to sit down and do something that I love or something I'm just so used to just the clustering of that shit. And anytime I get a chance to sit down and do something that I love or something I'm passionate about,
and I know what I'm doing, I like to be organized.
The rap shit is so under organized.
Like we can pull up somewhere, that shit can cancel
as soon as we got the back door.
You like, what the fuck?
But that movie set is always there,
a check clear, that shit hit on time every Wednesday.
It's like an incredible nine of a lot.
I mean, that's what it's like. I just love it. I give more peace, I give more time to every Wednesday. It's like an incredible night of my life. I mean, that's what it's like.
I just love it.
I get more peace.
I get more time with my kids.
I get to touch bases and do regular shit
that I don't really get a chance to do
when I'm on bow outside the time.
But when I'm on that acting time, I love it.
Because like I said, I get to do something that I love,
but also it just bring a nigga so much peace
and it's very, very structured.
I love shit that's structured.
Shelf time.
It fucked me up when I seen you on Law & Order.
I'm Law 6ixi, CSI.
One of them motherfuckers. I said, what the fuck?
What was he doing on there, Jay?
I was...
Tell him.
Tell him.
I said, nah, it's some bullshit. I was asleep.
And I walked up, I see the thing, I'm just on the bus. It's like, you know, I was asleep. And I woke up, I see the thing, I'm like,
I don't believe this thing, I ain't.
He's just out here doing shit.
I'm having too much fun.
Yo, I ain't gonna lie, that was probably
the hardest acting job I've had in my career.
And I wanted to quit too.
Cause that's, look, that's when I was hosting 106 Apart
and I was doing CSI at the same time.
So I was going coast to coast.
I will film three episodes in one day at 106 apart.
Then I got to get on the plane to fly six hours to LA.
Remember lines, be on point, be on cue, just to show CBS.
But I can handle doing this and this.
That shit was tough.
Like that was probably the most toughest
acting shit that I ever had in my career thus far.
I know it's probably gonna be some more shit ahead,
but that shit was tough.
Like I remember calling my mama like,
hey, check this out.
It ain't over for about the money.
This shit ain't worth it.
Like stress, this shit kill it.
Like I wanna quit.
It was like in episode six.
She like, if you quit now, nigga,
you ain't gonna never work in Hollywood again.
You can forget about that shit.
They gonna get your ass about here.
So she told me that I had to pound through that motherfucker.
Yeah, it's crazy though. Like to see like when I really think about it, I'm just thinking about that shit. They go get your ass about here. So she told me that I had to pound through that motherfucker.
It's crazy, though, like to see, like when I really think about it, I'm just thinking about it now, like the movies you really be in.
I'd be watching them shits like I really watch roll bounce.
Come on. Hey, hey, hey.
I was fucking with that shit.
For sure.
You got your ticket.
You got your ticket.
Yeah, I'm like, let me make your ass.
Yo, every movie I got got my ass whooped.
Like, Fazz and Fritz, so good, Joe.
They did it, they did it, my ass whooped.
Yeah, I'm like, damn.
M&Q, bro.
I got the best movie catalog.
Lottery ticket, I got my ass whooped.
I think Arterize was the only thing I did, right?
I got the whoops on my ass.
Every, yeah, they always in this.
Yeah, you so cute.
I ain't got the best, I don't know, Ludacris shit.
Hell no.
Ludacris, he's smoking Ludacris in movies.
I mean, he be the main character.
That's why I'm giving him the top rep.
Hey, Lil' Chris, that O.E.B.
Nah, that'll do his shit, though.
For sure, for sure.
For sure.
Now, you're talking about the hardest job
you had in Hollywood.
What's the funnest movie role you had so far?
Yeah.
The funnest? Yeah.
Um, it's been, um, shit. Can't be like Mike. He was struggling with that.
You had a big deep playing up.
When that nigga grew up, man, like Mike.
Grew up.
I think that girl grew up in a group home. I think a little like people.
The real like Mike.
I was a orphan.
I was a orphan.
You know, you know the bag ain't here yet.
But the answer to your question though, I got to say,
Fast and Furious is fun as a motherfucker. She throw the bag at him, but the answer to your question though, I gotta say,
Fast and Furious is fun as a motherfucker. Because that was my first action movie that I did. That was like some different type of shit. You know what I mean? Like that's when I knew, I was like,
okay, hold on. I finally tasted like this Hollywood shit right quick. Like this is crazy for me to be
a part of such a big franchise. And then we did, Jessalyn was a directed album.
That's what took on a pretty much carried
the whole entire franchise.
And that was the third one was his first
like directorial debut.
So I say fast, fast is probably,
and it's always fun because they always be having
to do crazy shit.
They blowing up shit.
The sets be crazy.
Like it's lit.
I fuck with fast and furious, but I ain't gonna lie.
The last one had me fucked up.
When that nigga hit, when the rock hit, the plane,
and I said, I heard fast.
I love you to death, brother, but look,
I don't believe that.
God, bro, look, I'm gonna tell you what's keeping crazy here.
We in London filming, right?
And when I got the script, I was like,
okay, I can't wait to see how this shit gonna be.
So we get to the movie premiere, and just being my manager,
we sitting next to each other, we watching the movie.
I'm like, yo, did I really just send Ludacris
and this nigga Tyrese in the outer space?
Like this shit is getting crazy.
Like that's what I was like, okay,
we take it to another place,
but we gearing up to do it again though.
We gearing up to do it again.
I think the next one will be the last one.
And then there's gonna be a lot of spin-offs from that.
So I mean, you know how friends are.
Listen, man, as long as Tom Cruise can keep doing
these motherfucking Mission Imposibles,
we're going to keep doing these motherfucking Fast and Furious.
Oh, wait.
At some point, the mission got to be finished.
What is the mission?
That's the thing.
How many times?
And Fast and Furious is the shit.
We at 23.
It's 11 now.
We in.
Yeah, niggas need to drive cars no more at Fast and Furious. Nah shit we had 23, 10, 11 now. We in. Yeah, niggas gonna need to drive cars
no more in Fast and Furious.
Nah, it's different now.
We like action stars and shit.
It definitely transcended past the street racer element.
You know what I mean?
But I'm hoping that we can get back to that element
because it is a, you know, that underground street racer
shit is some serious shit.
And so there's definitely a big call for it. Most definitely. Obviously, we know you first off tour racer shit is some serious shit. It's a, it's definitely a big cult problem.
Most definitely.
Obviously we know you fresh off tour.
I wanna ask you, what's some of the songs in that playlist
where you know the crowd really about to go up?
Shit, all of them.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna say all of them.
All of them.
Especially like the older shit,
because you know, if you grew up with a nigga that,
you know, a lot of cats be saying they go bad.
Like beware dog was the first out that I have a guy
You know I mean so anytime I get a chance to go back and be my arch-op and do like the earlier shit
They'd always be you know I mean for the first album to even like the mid
Adult bow shit from you know to like yous and how to my systems and I'm a flirts and the let's get down to the
Take you home to meet me all fucking fucking day naming all that shit. But it's real.
That alone speaks for us.
It's real. It's real.
You know what I mean?
Shorty they ain't thinking about,
but it's everything bangs pretty much.
But it's all about you sequence the records though.
Like people don't understand.
Like it's all about, you can't just say, man,
I'm about to do all my hits and they just don't hit.
Like that shit got a flow.
Like that's what we don't understand about tour.
But you can say, I'm going to like you after that. I'm going to show you that shit just don't hit. Like that shit got a flow. Like that's what people don't understand about tour. Like you could say, I'm gonna do like you,
then after that I'm gonna do short.
That shit just don't, they might not coexist well
going back and back.
So I gotta really be careful.
And I'm the one that's really putting my shows together
from the top all the way to bottom.
So any time you come to a Millennium tour,
anything that I'm a part of, anything I'm doing,
that's me doing that shit from top to bottom.
That is hard, bro.
I want to ask, I want to ask bro, I was confused. That was hard, bro. I want that ass up. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.
I wanted to ask, bro, I was confused.
Who found you, Snoop or J.D.?
Snoop.
So Snoop.
Well, really it was Daz.
Daz was the first one for the Dawes family.
Yeah, Daz was, cause I was in Columbus,
I was, that's where everything happened.
And I'm rapping at the Chronic Tour.
I jump on the stage, crowd going crazy.
I'm like five years old, six years old.
They throwing money on the stage. You know me, I dropped the mic, crazy. I'm like five years old, six years old. They throwing money on the stage.
You know me, I dropped the mic, nigga.
I'm picking up the money.
I'm like, I'm picking that up.
We need that.
I was on your side at that time.
I was like.
Hey, nigga, hold on.
I wasn't on their side.
They was throwing money at you?
I think it turned into a sticker, man.
Hey, I couldn't get shit at that time.
So anytime I saw the money coming,
we'd be picking that up.
And then from there, it was actually during the intermission,
it was AJ Johnson who played Ezell on Friday.
He was the MC on the chronic tour.
And he was like, man, I got this little nigga out here
and they're going crazy.
And they was like, you gotta come, you know,
dads, you gotta take to the back.
You need to go meet Snoop and die to Drake.
And from there it was on.
So once I went backstage, this is FMS picture,
and my father's gonna look it up, it's a B.
I think I was like five years old, Snoop is like 18 or 19.
I think Dre might be like 22,
it's just us three in the pic, I'm in the middle.
And from that day, it was over.
And that nigga said,
nigga, your name gonna be Lil' Vile Wilde.
Cause they was calling me Lil' Snoop.
My original rap name was Kid Gangsta.
And that nigga Snoop was like,
nigga, that thing don't fly at all.
Guess what?
It's terrible, right? So he was like, everybody keep calling him little Snoop.
And I want him to have his own identity. I don't want him to go around and be little Snoop, but he is me.
But fuck that. I'm the big fat one. I'm the big dog. He's the little dog.
And that's how I came to the other name. I'm going to be Lil' Bow Wow. That's going to be you.
That's hard.
That's a fire origin story.
That's hard.
That's probably the best problem.
That's true.
You been listening to his fod, nigga.
How old was you with that Tim Calhoun jersey? 13.
Okay.
That's crazy.
I hated that nigga.
He had a razor scooter, nigga.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
That's crazy, nigga, man.
I can't even do no kick flip, nigga.
Fuck this.
Nigga got a scoot.
I wanna ask you a question,
talking about the discography. What's one song, obviously you and to ask you a question talking about discography.
What's one song, obviously you and JD,
you a lot of great producers,
what's the hit that you passed on
or you was like, damn, I could have had that one?
It's crazy because Jermaine pretty much been like,
my main producer pretty much throughout my career.
I mean, Pharrell the Neptoes, I worked with Swizz too.
Yeah.
It might've been maybe a short time in my career
where I would start accepting the records people.
Like, let me be more open than producer Sydney shit.
And I remember getting this beat
and I do this motherfucker special
and her, the law, the direction.
I do it.
I'm like, all right, I'ma do it.
But Blackpink be fit there in the club, oh shit.
Next one up.
Yeah, yeah.
But for me, it was pretty much like,
when I got this beat, I said,
damn, man, this motherfucker's so special.
I just, I know it's for the ladies and that's what I do,
but it ain't nothing really sticking like that.
And I remember I just passed on the beat,
next thing you know, about a couple
months later. And I got two of these records too, I'm going to tell you about. But this
one was Lotus Flower While. That beat came to me and I just, I remember being in the
studio for ever. I'm like, man, ain't nothing sticking. So my whole thing, I'm not a forceful
writer. Like if ain't nothing coming, like it's supposed to come natural. Like that shit
supposed to just come. So don't know, come to me, I'm going to pass on. And I'm glad
I did because for it to go to Miguel and while later into the
hell of a fucking job in the register.
So you know what I'm saying?
And then the other one, this is on fuck.
I love this is crazy.
Polo the dime got the files and this is my brother.
So I'm he fucked up and you know, he fucked up on this.
I go in the studio.
He played me this crazy ass beat.
It was like close to
Christmas time. So I hit Gucci. I'm like, Gucci, you need to come slide to the studio,
come do this shit polo on. This shit crazy. And at the time I'm coming on Fresh As I Am
is it's so much other shit. I'm like, I need this sound. Like this is going to mature me
and grow me. Gucci come through, do the verse. Shit's stupid. This nigga polo called me
on Christmas Eve. Like I fucked up. I'm like, what you doing? Remember that beat I gave come through, do the verse, shit's stupid. This nigga Polo called me on Chris Dazee,
like I fucked up, I'm like, what you doing?
Bring that beat I gave you on Guwop.
I'm like, yeah.
I gave it to Wayne.
I said, what?
He said, I forgot, I be sending out so many beats.
He said, you gonna have to call Tune
and see a tune, not gonna fuck with it.
So I called Wayne and I said, hey yo, this nigga Polo gave me this beat.
What beat?
So I'm about to be tough.
I'm like, I'm gonna explain it for you.
Oh no, fuck that ass.
I don't need that one.
I'm gonna fuck that ass.
So I'm like, all right, I go to shoot this movie.
I turn on the radio, I'm in New York,
caught 97 on the hits.
Blow up the chopper, like it's December 31st.
Oh, boy, chopper, they hit the, Polo did that.
Me and Gucci had it first, she was stupid.
So you know, nobody, and I don't even think Ross
was on the record, so when I called Tune,
it was like I reminded the nigga off the beat,
and the nigga went back and said,
hold on, nigga, don't know.
And threw Rosé on that bitch and called Polo,
like yo Nick, I'm keeping this nigga in the spot.
And there it is.
That's a fire record though.
Maybe they'll throw you on a remix though.
Nah man, cause look, Polo,
I was actually gonna use it for the verses.
I was gonna fuck niggas up on the verses
when I battled Soulja.
I was, I said, Polo send me the fucking record,
just gonna send it in it through like this crazy.
And another one too, me and Meek in the studio
working on, stay scheming.
We had to be first.
Damn.
Damn, damn, damn.
You can look that up on YouTube.
That's live on YouTube right now.
We had it first.
Yep.
Me and Miami in the studio working on the beat together.
Me and Meek.
Thank you.
Yep.
That's a record.
Okay. So it's just crazy how like,
how these beats get submitted to artists
and we all get them.
You know what I mean?
But it's dope for me to even tell these stories
because people was like, damn, what the fuck?
Like what if that record wasn't what that was?
Like, you know what I mean?
There's so many artists that got them type of stories
that you wouldn't even believe,
but them the main three that really, really stick close.
And every time I hear them records,
I'm like, them shit's still in my email too.
Yeah, you got all the hits though.
You got enough catalyzer.
Fuck that nigga, I'll phone it.
Nigga, shit, I won't.
Stace gave me one.
I won't let you do a record though.
It definitely was, it definitely was.
And of course, it's the first time you hear it,
so anytime you hear it for the first time,
that's gonna be your first judgment.
But we went kind of crazy though.
But I'm happy with they turned the win, turned out though.
And Jeffy, everybody's talking about the battle
between K.Drip, but the original battle,
back in the days when people was all Skype.
Yes, sir.
I'ma tap that ass.
That was crazy.
That was crazy.
Here we had these niggas go. Here these niggas go, man. Then when he said, that was crazy. That was crazy. We had these niggas go.
We had these niggas here, man.
Then when he said, here he go, he was out of pocket.
Here we go.
Hey, you know what's crazy?
I told somebody, I said, yo Jay,
you about to crack up laughing this.
Remember how the video had the sound effects to thump?
You know who added that?
Me.
Oh, listen, on everything I love, listen, on everything I love,
I thought I was doing something,
so I'm about to edit this motherfucker.
This shit gonna be the hardest.
Look, you gonna feel like...
Like, I added all that shit.
I was like, yeah.
But that was a funny time, though.
Well, you see that now.
Like, what do you think?
I know you probably laugh,
but it's funny as hell, but you probably laugh like a bloodfucker do you think? Like, I know you probably laugh, but if you're funny as hell,
but you probably laugh like a bloodfucker.
You want to know why I laugh so much?
Because that was the stupidest shit
that I ever told this shit to that table.
The funniest part about making it funny
is I was dang-a-fuck-serious, though.
Like, that's what makes it worse.
I know.
Like, I was dang-a-fuck-serious.
And what makes it even funnier is, well I can say it now, one of the guys is actually
in the back is a brother of mine who actually happens to be Chris Brown's manager.
So it's funny how shit, how time flies and how time really passes.
But that video will always be legendary, you know?
It will always be legendary.
That was a crazy ass-
That was a moment.
Yeah, being Soulja, we got some bitch.
That's my dog.
Shout out to Dre going one time.
One time.
One time.
What's more classic?
That or the Bow Wow Challenge?
Being a soldier.
Because that's a period.
Like you got-
It was.
You got-
But so-
You had niggas going crazy with the-
I love how you embraced everything.
No, bro, you know what happened though?
What's the real shit? It didn't affect me like that because That niggas going crazy. I love how you embrace everything. No, bro, you know what happened though?
What's the real shit?
It did affect me like that because first of all,
when I did it, right, this real shit,
you know what I'm focused on, because I'm going to tell you,
I'm in New York.
I had to go to New York and do press.
So I'm on a plane, actually flying.
So when I get to New York,
my mama called me and said, what the fuck did you do?
And I was like, what you talking about?
And I'm watching the playoffs.
I'm in the room watching the playoffs all the time. I said, somebody play. The fuck did you do? And I was like, what you talking about? And I'm watching the playoffs, I'm in the room watching the playoffs,
I'm talking about somebody I played.
The fuck did you do?
So I ain't do shit.
Fuck he like, so now everybody calling my phone
and that, so I'm willing to understand how big this shit was
and so I got back home that letter
and I was in my basement and I was just chilling
watching the playoffs and my fucking phone
just kept going crazy and then I saw a sloop.
I'm like, damn he fucking up, this nigga trolling me.
50, homie, 50 trolling me.
So I'm like, okay, y'all niggas playing with me.
Now we about to go get like 20 plays this year.
Y'all niggas about to be fucked up.
So you feel me?
But you know, for me, it was just, you know,
the shit that rappers do.
Every rapper lie.
If you don't believe me about that,
well then, you know, I just got caught that day.
That was a wild.
I'll fuck with that though,
cause I can't wait to lie.
Or private jet Go be crazy.
My mom is so funny.
What?
Can't wait to lie.
We put B. Smoke right on the side of that motherfucker.
I want to ask, what's the artist, bro, now, or the actor that you would love to do a movie
or a record with that you wouldn't touch bases with?
A hoomy. Off the top. Down she. Hey, down. Off the top. that you would love to do a movie or a record where it's like you wouldn't touch bases with your... A movie?
Off the top, down she...
Back.
Down, off the top, that's my favorite act of all time.
Down.
A musician.
Brit.
Terrifiers.
I'm always like a...
Like the connection I always have with a R&B singer
on a record, when I collab, it's
pretty much going to do what it's supposed to do.
And for me, I think my goal, and I even think, I think one of my homies, he even told me,
like, yo bro, I want you to do an album with every R&B you did in the game.
Like, you always win with that, you always, it was a T-Pain hook, a Chris Brown feature,
but a Marion feature, motherfucker, like whoever it is, bro, like it just, it sticks.
I mean, that's why I'm glad I got one with Jaquez, me and Trey, just got on tour with me and Trey, but then the studio cooking up a lot. Okay, have you heard about this? Last year Degree changed the formula for their cool
Rush deodorant. The fans rebelled at one of the old sent back,
and Degree listened, and that doesn't happen often.
They admitted they effed up
at bringing the original Cool Rush sent back,
and it's exactly how you remember it.
Cool, crisp, and fresh.
There's a reason why it's the number one men's
anti-perseperant, and it's back in Walmart, Target,
and other stores now for under $4.
So try it and see what the fuss is about.
Head to your local Walmart, Target,
and try the OG cool rush for yourself.

I don't even have a question for you, more or less a salute because like you said, you've
been that niggas since we was kids.
We see a lot of people who grew up in Hollywood, grew up with fame, they don't always end up
the same as adults.
Right. But for you to navigate to be who you are, that's dope.
But how was that growing up with all that type of notoriety
and just still having to be a regular person?
Well, shout out to my mama.
I got a black mama, so my mama ain't sharing the oil and shit.
Yeah, definitely.
Having my mama in my quarter, that played a big role
into my career.
Not only that, but just for me,
just based on what you said, for me,
I always studied the ones who came up for me who fucked up.
So I'll be watching them like, now I know what not to do.
Cause if I slip down that hole, that's gonna be me.
So I'll be learning from motherfuckers
making their own mistakes.
But I give all credit to my mom.
So without her, she was like the launchpad into this shit
that kind of prepared me mentally. And then of course, me having the legends in my mom, so like without her, like she was like the launchpad into this shit that kind of prepared me mentally.
And then of course, me having the legends in my corner,
having a stoop, having a Trevay Dupree,
and just, you know, even Annelly,
you know what I mean,
why I consider like a big brother.
These is niggas that's gonna pull up and fight me
if I'm out of control, if I'm on the internet,
I'm wild, and that's why I think I've been
on his best behavior these past couple of years,
because I understand what it is,
and I understand my brand, I understand who I am. And it take real big homies to come to you and then bring your ass down here one time
and let you know what you've been fucking up on. And I got a lot of people that love it. Outside
the game, they're here inside the game and they don't want to, they ain't gonna let you fall
everywhere. So yeah, little struggle. I got to tell them. Me and you had a fun moment one day, of course.
Like, me and you was, that's great.
But we was out one night in Houston.
It was me, you.
What was your name?
I was playing with Boston.
We was in Houston.
It was COVID time.
Nigga.
I knew it.
Oh, I knew it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Two minutes until.
Wait a minute.
What's coming up?
It's not bad.
When the mayor, when the mayor trying to kick me out of the city. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 20 million said to him. Wait a minute. It's not that high. It's not that high.
When the man trying to kick you out the city.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So we had a good time.
And I was like, this is what I knew.
I was like, yo, he a different famous.
You know, I'm playing on the Celtics.
This JT, JB, all them.
Yeah, yeah.
He was at camp.
Yeah.
And I said, damn, he walked through.
And no offense, but like 50 girls ran behind him.
I said, yeah, he a different famous.
So they roll with us.
See, uh-huh, my fault.
I didn't know you brought him to the floor.
I had to see them running behind you.
And I looked at Jason, I was like,
you got a lot of money, but you don't got that.
And he was like, I'm about to go get that.
I gotta shake that nigga's head.
When my mom and JT came over to the sex, y'all didn't fuck.
Y'all was like, you pull it up.
You pull it up.
I'll fuck with JT, but that's my dog, man.
Like, that's family, and you just bringing that up, man.
And I wish my boy is in speedy recovery, too.
I told him I was going to go to Big Time,
I'm going to fuck with him and check on him while he down.
But yeah, that's my dog, man.
And that was a, that, matter of fact, was crazy.
That was me and Soulja Boy after partying
to the Millennium Tour.
That was one of the craziest nights at Camp Houston for sure.
That shit was crazy.
It was going up.
I wasn't there for long.
That's right, you left.
Pee somewhere around here.
I was there too long.
Get your ass on somewhere.
He got up out of there early.
I wanna ask you bro, how did the Millennium Tour start?
Who originated that?
It originated, I'm gonna be real, Garrett.
You know what I mean?
It all started with Gary, that's the promoter, the BPC.
Gary and AD, they came up with this concept
to break back that vibe again.
You know what I mean?
The Scream Tour started with me.
You know what I mean?
That's my shit, a stamp, a staple, and that was the first. And pretty much the Millennium Tour was
kind of like the spinoff from that. And I mean, the first one was 2019 with B2K. And I felt that,
you know, it wasn't my time to do it yet. I felt that the fans and me understanding our audience,
that the B2K reunion was their time
and it had to happen for them.
And it was, I didn't want to take away from the moment.
The moment was too big and I set it out.
And I just watched every artist from that,
from our time just get the tweet.
And it was so pissed like,
man, why the fuck y'all ain't calling me?
Why the fuck?
I'm like, nigga, y'all ain't bigger than B2K, nigga.
The girls want to see mother fucker B2K.
These niggas only come outside of me 25 years together.
So if they can catch them one time, they gonna catch them.
And then I came out,
a worry on that brought me out as a special guest,
shit went crazy, and that's when Dari...
What's up? They gotta call the dog.
You gotta call the dog.
Ain't no way you doing anything millennial
without a meal or Chris Brown involved in that motherfucker.
It's just, it ain't going to work like that.
You know what I mean? Like, come on, Darion, talk a little shit.
True. We sold the most from our millennium.
We got the most hits out of the millennial is us too.
And I knew the car was going to come. And when it came, I took the opportunity.
Then Mario came back and he co-headlined with me.
And then Gary like, we got running back again.
I'm like, Tim, we going three times in a row.
Yeah, we going again.
And that was with me, Trey, and Marion,
Rosé and everybody else.
And how this one came about was, you know,
I put the call in the trigger.
I called trigger myself.
Cause Trey wasn't picking the phone for niggas.
He was not picking up the phone.
He was not entertained at the tour at all.
And Gary was like, yo, I need you to put your bidders hat on.
And I need you to put this call in there.
I put the call in there.
I said, yo, Trey, I need you to headline.
He said, headline?
I said, I don't, nigga, you hand line.
This your shit.
I said, nah, nigga, I'm on some mother type of shit right now.
I'm like, I need you to do this.
You know, I don't got time for the ego shit.
That's why I fuck with Trilla.
You know what I mean? Just put some positive touches on my nigga.
Nigga's solid.
Came on the tour, did a stay, rocked out.
One of the best touring partners I think I ever had
in my career, understairs, with the tape.
And all we can be able to do is stick it in.
You need to run the back.
I can't bring B2K then, they too far.
Nah, nah, we got some shit cooking on the works. I can't bring B2K then. They too far. Nah, nah, we got some shit cooking on the works.
I can't really speak on it too much,
but it's something big going down in December,
as of now, something real big going down, possibly.
Hey, get up.
That boy, what's that nigga's name over there?
I don't know, dope.
Here he go, here he go, here he go.
Digger Rans B out of pocket, here he go.
He ain't ready for no tour in that shit, man.
Hey look, believe it or not, though,
while we're here just shooting this shit,
that nigga Lowkey is like the motherfucker very smart
when it come to fitness stuff.
For sure.
He the motherfucker that's in the office
when Gary them putting this shit together, though.
So I gotta give it to Razz on that point.
Nah, let me have that.
That's for you.
I was trying to clean this shit up.
I was like.
Man, y'all don't watch these two niggas
at home tonight, man.
It's a wild backcourt.
Backcourt, crazy.
That's right.
So now speaking of your family,
you got to address for your cousin.
Put Smuddle Bow Wow name, man.
Your cousin Orlando.
Hey, that's my cousin.
Orlando Brown, my cousin.

Yeah, yeah.

The first time I said, man, I'm gonna fuck,

I swear to God, I was hot at first,
and then I'm like, what am I gaining out of this shit?
It's like-
He be tweaking, bro, don't worry about it.
No, but I'm like, what am I gonna gain out of?
Nothing.
Like, it's like, he gonna sue me?
Like, I ain't gonna getting nothing out of that shit.
Then I feel like the people are like,
this man, you know that nigga crazy as a motherfucker about.
You get no points off that, nigga.
So it's like a lose, lose, either way it goes.
So I said, some shit, you just gotta let shit slide,

That thing could be trippy.
But you know, honestly though, the nigga really talented though.
I said it's racing.

Like, the nigga's really funny.
Like, I just feel like if somebody really gave the nigga a real opportunity
and put him in a situation a real actor situation

Yeah, yeah, sports was first. Sports was first.
You know what I mean? Just growing up in Columbus, you know, we got the Gusmacker out there.
I know y'all know Gusminder. I know you know Gusminder.
I'm playing the Gusmacker a couple times growing up. From there we got spacked up.
We was terrible.
And I was famous too.
That's like first album album.
I went back to the city, got in that shit.
We got in like air.
So hot as fuck.
You know how that shit be?
It's like a billy corks.
They give you a map.
You gotta try to locate your court.
Like it was just too much.
But growing up for sure, like basketball was my everything.
Like I honestly felt like, damn, I had a chance.
So I said damn, my nigga is almost grown
and I just stopped the wrong.
It's just not gonna happen to me.
And then I saw Cherry McGuire and I said,
I know I can't play the game, I can play,
but I said I know I probably can't play physically,
but I wanna be a part of the game somehow.
You know what I mean?
And I said, damn, I wanna be a sports agent.
All right, for sure.
Who was one of the coolest entertainers
you've seen whooped up?
Boo, boo.
What?
Prince.
Prince.
Prince.
Hey, I know y'all probably heard stories.
I hate to keep bringing this nigga name up,
but the first person, because I can say so many people
that shit like this all year, but we know he can play. No, but that nigga R. Kelly could play.
What?
He's good at everything he's doing.
I don't care what niggas say.
Let's go home, man.
Hey, R. Kelly is the greatest.
Everybody for the shot.
Hey, this is it.
And Robert did that shit.
R. Kelly.
There's a lady.
Hey, yo, let me tell you something about this lady.
Hey, look.
There's a lady.
Because I know this shit gonna go everywhere
because I don't know if nobody even told the story.
I remember one time, this a funny ass shit, right?
This nigga, so this nigga Chris, right?
This nigga called me.
The nigga Brayle called me like,
yo bro, what you doing this weekend?
I said, nigga, I got a studio session with R. Kelly.
That nigga Chris never met Kale, so he like,

Nigga like, we going to the gym. We about to play basketball right now. We about to go to the gym.
We really go to the gym.
It's probably two in the morning.
I swear to God, I never seen niggas play 505,
but it was like playing 501.
Because every time a nigga got the rebound,
on kill scene is,
pass to the kills, pass to the kills, pass to the kills.
Every time one of these niggas get a rebound,
you had to pass the ball to Ark.
Am I lying?
You got to pass it to this nigga. And I'm talking about this nigga is walking rebound, you had to pass the ball to R. Kelly. By the way, you got to pass it to this nigga.
And I'm talking about this nigga is walking up the court,
shooting from half.
These niggas rebounding it, if you get it again,
they kicking it back out to R. Kelly.
Oh, he's sad.
Oh, I swear.
Like, no one will shoot.
You, you, oh, he's sad.
I know exactly, yep, he's sad.
You kidding?
Listen.
You gonna kill?
Hold on, nigga.
You was at the house. I'm talking? Hold on, you was at the house?

You said you was at the pool.
What?
Oh, hell.
Like me and this nigga, me and this nigga,
Breezy, me and this bitch like, y'all,
nobody can shoot on this nigga, Tim, but him.
This nigga's incredible.
But he one of the top guys, though.
But he making this shit, though.
He was hitting. Oh, yeah. But he making this shit, though. He was hitting.
Yeah.
So he going crazy right now.
Yeah.
That's why he's playing.
He having it in the third.
And if he did miss.
See.
How is that?
They played on the yore.
Now I ain't saying it like that.
They played on the yore.
Excuse this nigga, man.
They play on the yore.
No funny shit, though.
How is that working with him to the studio?
Because we don't get no all killin stories at all
on our pods.
Man, the niggas on the musical fucking chains, bro.
Like, you know, shout out to Lil Ronnie.
He the one who produced Same Girl
and he did I'ma Flirt for Us.
And we, you know what I mean?
When he did the record, we was at the house
and I was stuck like, again.
Like sometimes as writers as rappers,
we get writers block.
I'd be writing so much shit
that she'll start rewriting the same shit.
Like what the fuck?
So I took a break, the nigga Kells called like, what you feeling?
I'm like, man, shit, I know it's gotta be for the ladies.
Like it's me and you.
Like it's gotta be for the ladies.
So I got you.
Give me like 15 minutes.
Motherfucker called back and go, it's a boy.
And I'm like, what nigga?

He said, no, no, no, no, no, no, but it's a boy. It's a boy. I like, what nigga? Like, what? He said, no, no, no, no, no.
But listen, it's a boy.
It's a boy.
I said what?
He said, we got a hit and it's a vote.
The nigga press play on that motherfucker.
Boom, it was on my flirt.
Damn, no cap.
Like in a 10 to five minutes, the nigga did the hook,
sent it back and the rest was his.
Wow, this is hard, bro.
Yeah, it's you and your thoughts.
You even worked with a lot of people
bro yeah tons of people tons who the hardest worker that you just see the
hardest work I seen in the studio or like the hardest person to work with in
the search that starts work appearing over this question actually we don't
want you telling on that body.
I would probably say the motherfuckers that live in the studio,
Jermaine Dupree, he lives in the studio.
Wayne, the time I spent at Cash Money.
Wayne is very reliable.
You can rely on Wayne.
When I was at Cash Money, his room is room A, I'm room C.
If I'm working on some shit,
I can go right out in the parking lot,
walk right over to the other, right at Hit Factory,
give it a tow, hey, I need you on this.
He ain't gon' question it.
He ain't gon', he only gon' say,
this is what you need me on, say less.
He gon' find it.
So I swear to God, that nigga gon' walk that bitch
right back over to you in 10 minutes.
And it's gon' be probably one of the doughest verses
you probably ever heard, at least one of.
Who else go crazy in the studio?
What about Chris?
Me and Brown kind of work the same.
We got to have some partying going on.
It ain't just-
Y'all like him.
Yeah.
Like our shit is different.
Like Wayne ain't partied in the studio.
Hold on, man.
I don't want to fuck up this story.
Go ahead and say what you was trying to say.
Remote the Hendrick experience.
Well, say that first, nigga.
Say it like, this is Chris Brown.
I ain't no tell what these niggas is doing.
You talking about this like him.
I don't want to know this.
I just see some reports out of the day.
Man, shut up.
This thing here.
What's the vibes, though? So y'all got ladies in there?
Yeah, I think for any artist that's a part of the life side,
that really live the culture, that really live and eat
and breathe this shit that we do from the nightlife experience
to being on stage and just really inheriting
what come with this type of shit, this energy.
Me, Chris, and you know,
a Drizzy is certain niggas that got that fan base.
You know, my y'all know them niggas got motion.
Just straight motion.
And our studio sessions reflect that.
It's hard for me to make a female poppin' club record
without, with just being my engineer in there.
Like, we can't do this.
And the women be letting me know.
That's what's hitting. And shit, they ain't gonna let me know just by them vibing and the drinks going around. Like, we can't do this. And the women be letting me know. That's what's hitting.
And shit, they ain't gonna let me know
just by them vibing and the drinks going around.
And they repeating certain shit.
I'm like, oh yeah, we got us one.
You look at all 20 of them.
Yeah, every 20, look at all 20.
Look at them, they dancing, the hookah going and shit.
They fucking with this.
Well, hold on, the Henry experience don't be like that.
Maybe all four.
So all four of this will be you talking.
Who drove two-hours? Smarter guy, don't worry. We'll talk after this. You talk. We're drove too hard.
Smart guy, don't worry.
We'll talk after this.
You a little bit shoot nigga,
but you gotta have them vibes, man.
So you know, that's just me.
I can't, you know, certain records,
see I don't want nobody in this too, but with the booing,
I'm about to get it cracking and make some popping shit.
Like I used me to track me a brown guy.
Yeah, it's Huga going on.
It's Nefis Shots going on.
And it's just a vibe, like, which is vibe and all.
So show, show.
I'm definitely appreciating you, bro.
