Starting point is 00:00:00 It's all subjective, bro. And like, and you just have to know your worth. You know what I'm saying? I'm the only one that can tell people my value. So it's really just the marketing branding almost. Yeah, it is. Buy a piece of the artist. That's what you're paying for.

Starting point is 00:00:44 Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. I started, yeah, I always knew how to draw since I was a kid. I feel like I was born with the gift and like all my teachers growing up, they're like, yo, you're so good at drawing. You know what I'm saying? That gave me the confidence to pursue art. Amazing. Now drawing is a very hard space to make money in, right? So when did that first opportunity arise? So like I started when i was a kid but then i stopped um drawing when i was like 13 and i started making music and then all the way to 2020 when it happened it's what made me start painting again and then but nobody knew i could
Starting point is 00:01:18 paint because i haven't painted in years and i started painting i went to the art store i got the canvas i got the paint um i started painting and then all to the art store. I got the canvas. I got the paint. I started painting. And then all my friends were like, what the f***, bro? You're really good at this s***, bro. You can make a lot of money. So I'm like, hmm, yo, they might be right. So I just took it serious. I started painting 10 paintings a day.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Painting 10 paintings a day, bro. And like it just, from there it was history, bro. And what would you paint? Just different things? Yeah, like I would paint like portraits of people. So like I would message 100 people a day on instagram like wow yeah like yo um let me make a custom portrait of you let me make because the portrait you i was messing 100 people so that's how i was able to build like a clientele now i have over like 3 000 collectors that people that
Starting point is 00:01:57 own my paintings that's amazing yeah bro and that's the hustle that people don't see yeah people don't see that they call you an overnight success but you've been dming 100 a day for two years straight exactly that's what i did too at've been DMing 100 a day for two years straight. That's what I did too at first. Oh, really? Yeah, 100 a day for three, four years. Yeah, bro. It's the same like door-to-door sales.
Starting point is 00:02:12 It was like DM to DM. Yeah. And then who was that first big celebrity client for you? Man, it was, so this was in 2021. My homie calls me. He's like, yo, Drake is having his birthday party. You should paint him and his son. And I'm like, oh, that's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:02:26 So but the party was the next day and he called me at like 3 a.m. So I only had like six hours to paint the painting. So I painted the painting and I pull up to the party around 7 p.m. before the party starts. And the security is like, yo, what the fuck you doing with this big painting? It's like a six foot tall painting. It's huge. And and i'm like i had to come up with an excuse real quick i was like yo drake's dad told me to surprise him yeah so they let me through so they let me through they walk me to the green room where drake was gonna be no i put the painting back there i leave and
Starting point is 00:02:58 then i come back at like 11 p.m when the party's jumping and then there's like a big line outside so i'm like that i'm skipping the line i went to the back to the front security remembers me so they escort me back there everybody's looking at me like i'm a celebrity something because they escorted me to the green room yeah then i walk in the green room i see drake in there the paintings in there i'm like yo i'm the one that painted that he looks at he's like nah i'm like yo for real i painted that he's like what for real bro i love it bro and like after, bro, like that's when I started charging like $20,000 for panties and people just hit me up. DJ Khaled hit me up. I did one for him and his kids and like, it just went out the roof. That's incredible, dude. So what were you charging before the 20K? $250. So you 100X'd overnight. For real. That's insane. Yeah. I was only charging
Starting point is 00:03:41 $250. Dude, that's crazy. Do you get mistaken to be a celebrity a lot? Man, people come at me, yeah. I mean, people already tell me that I'm a celebrity. You get that vibe. Yeah, like they just be like, yo, you're a celebrity now. I just feel like I'm just normal. Bro, when you were at my event last night, someone came up to me and they were like, is that Kodak Black? No way.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Kodak is crazy. I swear. Kodak? Oh my God. I was like, what? That's crazy. I swear. Kodak, oh my God. I was like, what? That's crazy. Yeah, dude, straight jokes. I don't get mistaken.
Starting point is 00:04:11 I mean, I don't look like anyone. No, you look like yourself. But you went from paintings to cars, right? Yeah. So what was that transition like? So it was crazy because I had an Art Basel event called Art Beast in December last year. And then this is the day before the event.
Starting point is 00:04:30 My homie calls me. He's like, yo, Art Lanny, you want to paint my Lamborghini? And I'm like, yeah. I'm like, yo, to be honest, I don't know what to do on it. So I'm going to just throw paint on your car. And then he was like, all right, let's do it. So the next day happens. He brings the car. And then he was like, all right, let's do it. So the next day happens. He brings the car.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I threw the paint. And then after that day, my homie Neil was there. Neil, have you heard of Time Piece Trading? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Neil, he was there. So he's 6'9", he's a jeweler. He seen me throw the paint. And then he calls me a month later with 6'9 on the phone.
Starting point is 00:05:01 He's like, yo, Arlena, I got 6'9 on the phone. He wants you to paint all his cars. And I'm like, oh, so I paint all five of his cars and then that's when the shit just went viral wow everybody's like yo paint my car paint my car and then it just happened just like that bro yeah you did Sean O'Malley you did Natasha Graziano you did a bunch of big people yeah bro and I saw you actually get some hate for it bro every day I day I get hate. They're like, yo, anybody can do this. Yo, my two-year-old can do this. And I'm like, all right, go ahead. Go do it.
Starting point is 00:05:29 But the thing is, I'm not just throwing paint. You know what I'm saying? People come to experience. So when I do these cars, people come. I have events called the Artland Experience where people come watch me live paint these cars. And when I'm doing it, the art of the cars is like me performing it's like a performance art yeah and i'm like throwing the paint and i'm putting all my energy behind the paint and i'm speaking life behind the paint so it's like that whatever
Starting point is 00:05:55 i speak into this throw it's captured on the car wow so now it's it's captured for life it's not going anywhere so it's the intent intention behind the pain interesting yeah yeah art's very fascinating a lot of it is subjective right because there's pieces that sell for millions i'm like i don't understand it but then there's pieces that i think are amazing selling for like 50 bucks exactly bro yeah it's all subjective bro and like and you just have to know your worth you know i'm saying yeah i can say this is worth 250 or i can say this is worth 250 000 i'm the only one that can tell people my value. You know what I'm saying? Who are like the goats in the art space?
Starting point is 00:06:29 Like people you look up to? Right now, Damien Hirst, Takashi Murakami, Alec Monopoly. Yeah. And I got some friends that are dope artists like Yoast, Andres God, Alan Berman. Those are some upcoming artists right there and those guys that were high up like what do they sell their pieces for man they're they sell their pieces damien hirst probably
Starting point is 00:06:51 has a piece for like five million what probably like 10 million honestly holy crap what is it just a painting just yeah it's just a painting he just just throws paint on a canvas as well no way yeah and he goes like 10 million oh my gosh so it's really just the marketing branding almost yeah it is because you're doing the same exactly bro and it's like it's the same thing like um nike can sell shoes for 250 dollars but lewis fortuna sells shoes for two thousand dollars right it's all about the branding yeah it's the same quality yeah exactly i don't know this is just a shoe but it's just the name brand people are buying the artist they're not even buying the art right you know i'm saying you buy a piece of the artist that's what you're paying for
Starting point is 00:07:33 yeah are there any brands you want to collab with in the future yeah i want to um i'm going to collab with lewis vuitton wow i'm gonna collab with nike i'm gonna collab with lamborghini so i'm gonna come out with my own Lamborghini. No way. Yeah. Are you serious? Yeah. Called the Lanagini.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Dude. How many will there be? Probably like 20 in the whole world and probably sell like 5 million a pop. Holy crap. Yeah. You know how Virgil came out with his own Maybach? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Like he did a limited series. So I'm going to do the same thing with Lamborghini. Like you're already talking to them or you're just manifesting it? Yeah. Yeah. I'm actually, yeah. Dude, congrats. I mean, so the sky's the ceiling with this stuff there's no limit to this like where do you see this going man this is crazy to me man i believe
Starting point is 00:08:12 that i will be the one of the greatest artists to ever live wow like ever that's what i believe dude i could see it yeah bro so and i mean it's already happening like i just it's only been 2020 since i started taking the series you know i'm saying so yeah i believe it's gonna happen i could see it you got the energy you got the the branding and you got the right people around you yeah exactly that's important too and also also the cool thing with art is my friend has the biggest basquiat collection in the world what yeah yeah it's not even public but we were talking about this earlier he takes loans against his art so i think each piece is worth like two two million two five yeah five. Yeah. So whenever he needs money, he just goes to the bank,
Starting point is 00:08:46 goes to a lender. Yeah. It's two million out. Exactly, bro. Yeah. I can do that with my art as well too. Have you done it yet?
Starting point is 00:08:52 Yeah. Yeah. Get it appraised and then say this art is worth 60,000. I need 60,000. I go to the bank. They'd be like,
Starting point is 00:08:58 what are your assets? And I'd be like, oh, I have this painting. Yeah. And then I get it appraised, 60,000. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Go to the bank. Oh, they give me the 60,000 for the loan and boom. Insane. So you're like a real life money printer yeah exactly like there's not anything i can't think of anything else where you could just create it within a day and get a loan out against it yeah bro it's the art the master of art yeah so now that you're getting all this money all this attraction like what's that lifestyle been man um i mean i feel like me um i just upgraded my lifestyle but me personally i mean i feel like me um i just upgraded
Starting point is 00:09:25 my lifestyle but me personally i i never changed like the inside of me because i came from nothing wow and i and i always remain humble like grew up dirt poor my parents moved from nigeria like slept in a studio apartment my mom had eight kids all eight of us were sleeping in one studio apartment so like that's what really made me who i am today i feel like poverty created my drive and my hustle and the fire inside me so i will always remain humble but i just from coming from poverty like i always wanted to have things so i treated myself to a brand new house my cars and all that stuff like that just to experience that lifestyle right do you still talk to all your brothers yeah yeah every day wow seven siblings that's a lot yeah bro yeah i'm an only child so i know that's a whole different lifestyle wow yeah but growing up in poverty must have really motivated you to want more yeah bro made me hungry yeah
Starting point is 00:10:14 they've done studies on this man like it's actually a benefit to grow up kind of poor yeah i heard about that it's nuts like if you look at the data like people that grow up with money they don't usually end up as successful yeah because, because they're like, oh, I know I'm going to be good. But if you don't grow up with anything, you have nothing to lose. So it's just like you go all in for everything. Absolutely. What's the most expensive car you've painted? It was either the SF90 Ferrari or SVJ Lamborghini.
Starting point is 00:10:42 They were both about around $1 million at the time. Holy crap. Yeah. A million dollars at the time holy crap yeah million dollars yeah what if you like mess up people always say that but the thing is it's like art is not even perfect so there's no mess ups right like it's just it comes out how it's supposed to be interesting yeah because i'm just throwing the paint on the car so So you literally have a bucket of paint. Yeah. And you're just dumping it. Yeah, like I put it in a cup. I have a certain cup. I call it the magic cup.
Starting point is 00:11:09 And I just throw the paint. And then the way I throw it, it does a certain technique of splatter. And it creates different types of techniques of splatter when I throw it. Now, when you paint a car, does it increase the value of the car? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It actually does because one of my friends, I painted his Rolls Roy royce and he just sold it for an extra a hundred thousand dollars no way yeah because my art was on there dude so if you were smart you would just paint a few cars right now hold them for like five years that's what people are doing that's what six nine is doing
Starting point is 00:11:37 he doesn't even drive the cars he's just keeping them keeping them cars wow so he's still got money yeah yeah there's some rumors that he went broke um damn yeah do you are you into watches i know you mentioned neil earlier yeah i love watches i love i have five i want more yeah ap is my favorite watch same yeah yeah ap and then probably rolex i don't i don't buy the milli hype dude yeah the milli yeah the millis are cool i don't like the strap yeah it's kind of like a toy.

Starting point is 00:14:04 So, like, somebody copies me, they're going to know, yo, you copied our ladder. Yeah. So it's like nobody's really doing what I'm doing. Wow. Have you done any Ferraris yet? Yeah, I've done a Ferrari, SF90, the Ferrari is the SF90, yeah. What's been your favorite one like just that you did that you really liked? Man, it's so hard because I have multiple favorites.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Like the Brabus G-Wagon I did for 6ix9ine. That's one of my favorite favorites. Rolls-Royce Cullinan I did for one of my boys Keo. The SVJ Lamborghini I did for 6ix9ine. Bro, it's just so many. I have like over 60 cars that I painted. Wow, so you probably done like every color at this point. Yeah, bro. So it's like it's crazy, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Yeah. And this is since last December. it hasn't even been a year it's been 11 months since i started painting the car damn you did 60 cars in a year yeah how long does each one take like 30 minutes oh that's it yeah oh i thought it was like a full day thing nah i mean it takes like an hour to prep like tape up the lights and windows and stuff but the painting is only like 30 minutes to paint it so So you're making 20K an hour. Yeah. Must be nice, man. Yeah, bro, it's crazy. I created my own lane.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Yeah. And like nobody's doing this. Wow. You know what I'm saying? So what's your advice to aspiring artists to kind of just find their own lane, basically? Yeah, like find your lane and be yourself. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:15:19 Don't look at other artists and try to copy. Try to create your own image, create your own brand so people can gravitate towards that and it's organic you know what i'm saying because people can tell if you're faking it or you're copying or you're organic you know i'm saying some people can like read that energy so if you're organic to yourself to your brand to who you truly are and and it aligns with your vision i feel like you can be successful yeah you know i'm saying and that goes
Starting point is 00:15:42 with anything in life yeah anything's art yeah it goes with anything in life. Yeah, anything in life. Yeah, it's with anything in life. Yeah, I mean, look at you, man. You did art your whole life and people just see the past year or two. Exactly, bro. Like it takes time. People want to get successful in like a month. Yeah, they do.
Starting point is 00:15:54 It takes time. It does. It just takes time and dedication and focus. Like if you cut out all the distraction in your life, I feel like you can achieve anything in this world. I believe anything and everything is possible. Absolutely. So like cut out the distractions, keep great people around you.
Starting point is 00:16:07 If you have greatness around you, then you will be great. If you have losers around you, you're going to be a loser. It's really that simple, but people don't like doing some s***. Right. Some people are just lazy. They're on the phone all day. They don't want to do s***. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:19 It's so simple. Simple. You know what I'm saying? People overthink it. Yeah. It's not rocket science. It's not. It really isn't. So did you even go to art school in college? No I'm saying? People overthink it. Yeah, it's not rocket science. It's not. It really isn't.
Starting point is 00:16:26 So did you even go to art school in college? No, I didn't even go to. I dropped out of high school. Of high school? Yeah. Wow. Dropped out of 12th. I could have graduated.
Starting point is 00:16:33 That's the crazy thing. I dropped out of 12th grade because I was like, I don't want to go to college and waste my time. I wanted to go chase my dreams. And that's what I did. I just left Atlanta and went to LA. I was homeless. Didn't know a soul in LA did i just left atlanta and went to la like i was homeless didn't know
Starting point is 00:16:45 soul in la i just left went to la slept in ihop sleeping on the street just hustling grinding grinding until like i made a name for myself holy crap yeah bro dude what a story so you didn't even come to la with like an apartment or anything nothing wow and that was the plan just to yeah bro i just believed i just i had so much faith that i was gonna be a star and i just left and i was like yo i have nothing to lose i just left and went to la that's insane yeah and what was that like mentally on you being homeless sir i mean i mean at first it was kind of hard until like i started to see like people when people met me when i was homeless they didn't even realize i was homeless they thought like all right i had money like that but i was broke you know i'm saying i was homeless and so but that, all right, I had money and like that, but I was broke. You know what I'm saying? I was homeless and so, but that kept me going. You know what I'm
Starting point is 00:17:27 saying? That, that kept my faith going. Like, okay, people are believing in me. So that's what really, um, helped me go through that. Damn. So how long were you in that phase before you got some shelter? Um, like two years, two years. Yeah. Dude. Yeah. Then I'll start to meet people. Then I'll start couch surfing, sleeping here. My hom'll start couch surfing sleeping here my homies couch here then my homies couch there for like a year and yeah most people would have given up yeah bro i couldn't give up because i believe like you got to keep going that momentum you stop like if you see a rocket like a rocket takes off it doesn't stop in the middle of the air it keeps going so you gotta just keep going you know i'm saying yeah and that's how you really had that belief man yeah. Yeah. Early on.

You know what I'm saying? It's not no full, whole process. You just got to know somebody, and if they like you, they will help you. You know what I'm saying? Life's all about who you know, man. Yeah. It's all about who you know it's not no full whole process you just got to know somebody and if they like you
Starting point is 00:21:05 they will help you yeah life's all about who you know yeah it's all about who you know and people try to focus on other yeah bro it's like focus on your network and your value yeah your network is your net worth yeah you know that 100 absolutely yeah how do you choose the people around you i'm sure you get a lot of people trying to leech off your energy yeah i mean i just because my circle is so tight i mean the people that i keep around me is my team, like my Artbeast team, my manager, my CMO, like my videographer. Like that's just all the people I hang out with every day because we're always working on the goal. You know what I'm saying? So we're not distracted.
Starting point is 00:21:36 We're not, oh, let's go party. Let's go do this and that. We're like, let's focus on the vision. Let's build. Let's do that every day, every day. Nice. So that's how I keep myself focused. Yeah.
