I don't care what anybody says.
It doesn't matter what time of year it is.
I never get tired of online shopping,
especially during the holidays.
Here's the thing, it's kind of gross out.
Even those of us that embrace the chilly weather
need something to break up long winter nights.
Something I love to do is treat myself to a little something,
but I don't want to spend a fortune on my winter blues.
That's where Quince comes in.
I'm absolutely obsessed with my Quince luggages.
I took them on tour, I brought them home, and they're still like brand new. I'm pretty much obsessed
with this brand, but there is something else that everyone needs in their closet. In my opinion,
Quince's iconic Mongolian cashmere sweaters, which start at $50. Or if you want to really
up the lux factor, check out their Italian leather leather handbags washable silk skirts and european linen

You're my Robin today.
I have the sex icon of, I guess, what could we call it?
Country rap?
Is it hip hop or country rap?
Never hip hop.
Okay, why is it never hip hop?
I just want to know because I'm a West Coast girl, so I don't know any of this.
Well, it's corny.
Hip hop is like when you have no rap ability at all.
Gotcha.
Without further ado, we have Adam Calhoun.
How are you, baby?
You goddamn sex act.
Which camera do I look at for that?
All of them.
I think that's your camera.
Goddamn sex act.
How does it feel to be in Nashville, baby?
You know, I love Nashville.
I got a lot of friends here.
I'm sitting next to one right now. Made a lot of good music here. Made a lot of money with a lot of
people. And Nashville is a great city. Huge. It's getting, it's starting to blow up, you know. And
especially on the music scene, that's where everybody's at right now. So I'm fortunate
enough to be able to come down here every once in a while and work and get to see my friends while I'm working.
I love Nashville. I love that.
Nashville really is blown up. It's crazy.
Even since I've been here in the past six years,
it's insane how much it's
grown. I can only imagine somebody
who's grown up here, what it's like.
It's probably how I feel about Vegas. I wish they would
get the fuck out of the way. I wish they
built a whole different freeway for the people that have lived here
I wish you'd give me that fucking hat.
I'll pay you for that hat.
Is this hat not the best hat ever?
It is the best hat.
It's fucking, it's the meat, baby.
Look at the meat hat, y'all.
Big deal there.
I didn't even look at him today, and I looked up whenever we were walking out the door,
and I was like, does your hat say fucking meat?
It fucking says meat.
Like, I couldn't believe it.
It's the best ever.
So, Adam.
Yeah.
When I invited you on here, I want to just dive into things that people don't know about you because you're kind of like mysterious.
You know, like people know that you're like this alpha male who's very, you know, politically charged and all that jazz.
But I think that there's so much more behind what you present to the world.
I have a whole long life that I've lived here in this little life.
So, yeah, let's talk about whatever you want. Yeah. So where did you grow up? So I was jelly will appreciate this. So I was born in on the south side of Chicago and I grew up in a trailer. One of the one of the shitty ones when they had the single wides with the aluminum on the side and they're like pink shutters. Those are my favorite.
with the aluminum on the side and they were like pink shutters those are my favorite so until i was about seven i was on the south side of chicago and then we got out of there moved to like the
south suburbs like about 20 miles south of chicago how did your parents get out of the the you know
the trailer park and into the suburbs because that's actually kind of like a big step that's
how we felt when we moved into our fucking neighborhood we were like fucking um property value went down
so so my dad my my real father i don't have a relationship with him i don't know him very well
um um but my stepdad the guy that raised me he ended up doing really well in the company that
he was in and he started making good money and know, we got out of there and moved into a little house, you know, one bathroom.
Yeah, but step up from a trailer barn.
Yeah, yeah, and, you know, then he, you know, he was out of there.
They got divorced, and it was kind of my mom that just raised me
and the boys and my little sister, and it was crazy.
You know, growing up, we would take showers me and my my brothers till almost
high school because there was only one you know there's only one bathroom with a shower so it'd
be me and my brothers like rotating under the shower head because there's us three my mom my
sister there wasn't enough hot water you know you wake up late you didn't get the milk in time you
go right to the sink pour the water and the cereal and eat. And it came a long way from there, you know?
Yeah, that's awesome.
Growing up in something like that, do you think that has, like, inspired why you work so hard?
My mom inspired me to work so hard.
She was the hardest working person I've ever met in my life.
And there was no give in her.
And you talk about me being an alpha male or whatever
i think i she was the toughest chick i've ever met like you know i love that i love alpha females
so and she and she worked her ass off you know two three jobs just to keep us you know get second
helping of rice-a-roni or some shit at dinner that era bread fucking savage women yeah she was a beast yeah
you know i can remember my mom writing me a letter at 10 years old and i'd have to walk up to the
corner store and get her a pack of cigarettes yeah i did that too
didn't you wreck a car one time going to get your mom i was like
the world's a different place now the kids used to be able to get away with a lot She was like, drive down to the corner store. I was like, drive? All right. Fucking total of cars.
The world's a different place now.
The kids used to be able to get away with a lot more shit.
But, you know.
I feel like the world was so much better back then.
Way cooler era.
We got the coolest era.
I'm so thankful because I feel like kids nowadays are such pussies.
Oh, yeah.
It's crazy.
Like, I just, like, I can't even deal with half the shit that's going on.
I cannot deal.
I cannot.
I cannot deal.
I can't deal it cannot i can't deal it
i can't deal with it um okay so growing up you have two brothers what i heard you say brothers
yep i got pat uh so i'm the oldest i'm 41 a couple days ago um happy belated birthday thank you very
much uh my brother patrick is 38 my brother danny's 37 and my sister erin i think is 32 are you guys all pretty close so
it's so weird growing up i've always been so loyal to all my guys you know i'm saying like
loyal to a fault like you give out so much loyalty you know you're never going to get that loyalty
back the same reciprocated um and for some reason i I don't know if it's because I saw my mom in different relationships
and been married three times.
And for some reason, I wasn't close with my sister.
And there's a huge age gap.
You know, I was getting arrested.
You know, cops were coming to the house and arresting me at 17, 18 years old.
And she's in like second grade.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
So I never have a really close relationship with my sister, Erin.
I'm sorry.
I love you still to this day.
And I still see her.
I'm sure she understands that.
She hugs me and she's like, hug me.
And I'm just like, you know.
It's hard.
But my brothers, those are, yeah, I'm very close with my one brother specifically, Danny.
We're very similar.
And we've been close.
I mean, we slept in the same room we've been close, you know what I mean?
We slept in the same room our whole lives, all three of us boys.
So he's like a built-in best friend.
Yeah, it just made me loyal all the time.
I would do anything for my brothers, you know, and my sister and my family, period.
I heard you say that you got arrested.
So growing up, you know, and even moving to the suburbs, you were still.
I was a fucking menace
was this before or after the album you showed me like the cd that you dropped like way back
so that's when i started rapping i was so i started pre or post prison though this is pre
prison i went to prison when i was 28 yeah we want to get there i just want to kind of build a
story for everybody so that they can follow it.
Yeah, no, I was just.
You're not going to yell at us.
When you brought up him getting arrested, I never asked him.
I was like, oh, because I seen it.
He showed me like his first album.
Yeah.
And in my mind, I was like, when you said, well, you got arrested, I was like, I wonder
if that was before.
Right.
So this is.
The rapper in me wants to get straight to when did you start rapping?
When did you start getting in trouble? Like, was it, were were you just like yeah yeah me too actually i just i had a problem with authority in general like same uh i had a
chip on my shoulder you know my dad wasn't around my real you know you know i know my dad but i
don't fuck with my dad we don't fuck with each other like that's not i call i don't even talk to him i haven't talked to him in a decade but um i can't that hurt that's hurtful
i grew up just and you know my stepdad was always like you know you guys ain't tough you're not
tough you know because he was born on the south side and raised on the south side of chicago and
anyone watching this if you know what the south side of chicago is you know what the south side
of chicago i've never even been to the south side of Chicago and I've heard about the south side of Chicago and that's Leroy Brown by Jim Cruise that's right yeah and uh and that's where my
stepdad was born and raised and he comes from a family of 12 Irish you know I'm Irish um and he
was always telling us you're not tough my whole life he told me that and not only now do I
understand that he was trying to tell us not to be tough in the streets fighting right like that and because
he told me my whole life i wasn't tough that's all i wanted to do was prove to him that you were
i was tough you know and that's why you always see me i mean this is not new seeing me with a
black guy you know what i mean um but however it's getting a little old and i need i'm growing i'm
growing i told adam the other day i was was like, girls like guys with black eyes.
It's like, you know, a little pound puppy.
Yeah.
You know?
That's right.
I'm a pound puppy.
So you've been getting in trouble since day one.
That's just been your steeze.
Not like with a bad heart.
Just getting in trouble like, you know.
In the wrong place at the wrong time.
No, I was kind of like a motherfucker.
But I was like one of the good bad guys or a bad good guy.
Whatever you want to word it. You know what I mean mean what are some of the things that you got arrested for
growing up what actually what caused you to get put in you went to jail right or was it prison
did you go to prison well that's fast forward that to you know 28 years old i went to prison but
this is just getting picked up and going to jail for a couple days or like a couple months till my
bond came uh but yeah that was just stuff like
you know back then you're talking this is 1998 they didn't have weed like they have it now
so we would have to drive into the shitty you know chicago heights wentworth fifth avenue arnold
street and ask for some bags you know when they come out of the fucking house you know these are
trap houses and shit and they would throw in the bags we give them the money we'd run well there
would be cops you know right there and we get pulled over for that shit and uh you know fighting in the in the
bars and shit like that with my brothers and and uh you know just you name any it was it was just
guy shit not no like gang shit or street shit it was being dumb and fighting and just burning
testosterone yeah just driving on like a revoked license and right and just, you know, being just in the bars fighting a lot, you know,
and getting beat up and, you know, winning a couple here and there, you know. So was music
always a part of your life? Yes. Yeah, I think music, music and movies are my favorite thing
in life, you know, because it can change your outlook on life and
your mood in life you know um i've always loved music the first thing i ever asked for from rap
uh was an old dirty bastard cd and i asked my mom for that for christmas and i have a painting in
my house at odb you know rest in peace oh baby i like it wrong oh baby i like it wrong that would be the
song my wife yeah that's a great song did i could that's no surprise you sung it no i listen i'm not
huge on east coast rap but i love you know that's what i grew up that was where i went to was east
coast well being from chicago you know i grew up on the fucking West Coast. So I was Tupac and all that shit.
See, I like Biggie more than Pac until I got older than I started appreciating Pac.
Yeah.
I asked for that CD.
I was like 13 years old.
And she said, oh, she's like, no, that's the only thing I asked for.
She got it for me.
I played it till it was see through.
And then I started trying to be a rapper and write and everything.
And that's when I got into rapping.
So you instantly just wanted to be a rapper. It wasn't like any sort of like you wanted to be a rapper and write and everything. And that's when I got into rapping. So you instantly just wanted to be a rapper?
It wasn't like any sort of like you wanted to be a country singer or anything like that?
No, all I wanted to do was rap.
I mean, in the truck at high school, after school, we're all smoking blunts, driving down the road.
Three Six Mafia is playing and I'm rapping every single...
I was like, this shit is awesome.
All my friends are looking at me and I'm looking at them like, well, this shit is awesome.
What the fuck, man? Well, it was probably an outlet for you you know yeah it may
just it was uh i love music i love all types of music i mean my favorite band of all times led
zeppelin favorite singer of all times freddie mercury you know freddie mercury's birthday is
actually september 5th yeah you guys all you guys have the same birthday i know i remember i can
remember your birthday because it's the day before bills my dad my dad that's my dad we call we call
my dad bill um so let me hear about this cd that you were telling jay about your first cd first cd
you ever put out how old were you i was i think 21 actually and this was before you went to prison
okay i went to prison at 28 okay we'll get there
yeah uh i put it out a childhood friend of mine that i grew up with who was a much far better
rapper than me he still he still raps this day he's finally getting some views on and stuff like
that um i was baby face you know no beard him too i had hair still is this online somewhere where
anybody can no it's hard copies i sold jelly
roll like my first i was like dude i still have it yeah and i would love to see adam without a
beard old school hard copy really the graphics on it back then were probably like the best graphics
you could possibly get you look at them now and it's just like you know yeah no it was polaroid
picture almost that's wild yeah it was cool i was like laying on the couch or wild my son has to listen to it and I listen to it but back then
you were like so fucking proud of it that was your shit I was like we're
gonna this is we're gonna blow up and it took 20 years later what was your name
back then was it always a cow I always went by Adam Calhoun, but because we, I always went by my name.
Right.
I'll tell you this, remind me to tell you the story where A-Cal even came from.
Okay.
I always went by my name, but when I grew up, we were, so me and Chuck Mises, he's a rapper,
we would go to the South side of Chicago, you know, Englewood and the West side of Chicago.
And we would, there was, you can't rap in the South. There's no white boys rapping on the side of chicago you know inglewood and the west side of chicago and we would there was
you there was you can't rap in the sub there's no white boys rapping on the side of a corner right
you know so we would go and we would enter these battle competitions freestyle competitions stuff
like that and and i just went by the name mass confusion nobody knows no you just heard that
for the first time ever we got an exclusive and yeah we yeah, we battled out there and that's when
I started really taking rap seriously.
Does everybody go through that
where they're picking their official name?
What a genius thing to think about though. He called himself
Mass Confusion at a time that
a white dude showing up to rap
on the corner in the south side of Chicago
calls fucking Mass Confusion.
What a great, like there was so
that was such a different era. Yeah, completely. I that era it was super dope man it was a lot different
after you dropped that first album you know where did you consistently drop music after that did you
stay in the studio or was it like a one-off yes no i was always in the studio and we did i dropped
another project but uh they like shopped us i'm dropped another project. But they, like, shopped us.
I'm sorry.
You're good.
They, like, they shopped us.
You know, back then you had to have a label.
That's just how it was.
There was no internet.
You know what I mean?
There was no YouTube sensations.
Never.
So they shopped us to, you know, all the labels and stuff like that.
They were trying to sell me and him as, like, this white duo group or whatever,
and nothing really came out of it.
And I kind of just got lost and left that scene around 24.
And that's when I went back out and started drinking again.
I wasn't a great father.
You know, I wasn't around my son the way I should have been.
When was Taman born?
I love his name, by the way.
Taman Cain Calhoun.
He was born when I was 19.
So he was born in 2000, April 13th.
A lot of people have questions about his mom.
Do you kind of keep her in the shadows?
Are you close with her?
No, I haven't talked to her in probably a decade.
Oh, got you.
He doesn't even talk to her.
Wow, I didn't know that.
So was she an ex-girlfriend or how did that work?
Am I allowed to say things like fuck?
Oh, yeah, of course.
This is Bunny's fucking podcast.
She literally had people in here sucking sausages as a concept.
All right, great.
This is great.
There was one time that we were throwing hula hoops on the dildo.
Was there a dildo or something?
Yeah, it was a dildo.
You can't say something crazier than something.
We're doing the Horror Olympics in Vegas at the end of the month.
I want to go. I want to go to the Horror Olympics in Vegas at the end of the month. I want to go.
I want to go to the Horror Olympics.

I haven't been up five minutes some days.
She'll say the wildest fucking shit.
Okay, so...
Yeah, say whatever you want.
Taman's mom was like my real first piece of pussy where I was just pounding.
I would walk like two doors down, and that's where she lived,
two doors down from me, and I was just every day.
Did you fuck the neighbor, too, on the fucking electricity box or something?
Listen, when you're broke, you fuck neighbors.
Right now, you have nowhere else to go.

but it was on an electrical box.
That's how I popped my little cherry.
Yeah.
Dude, it's not like

You know what I'm saying?
So she wasn't my first, but she was my first where i was just putting in work consistent

but um yeah and then she got pregnant and and um and taming came and and then we weren't together anymore after that and uh you know she was a heavy
drinker a lot of drugs uh I'm not saying she's a terrible person you know she still does the
same shit and Taman just like I don't want to be around that um you know I was a young guy I didn't
know what was going on I I felt like I had some type of love for her and I just wanted to kind of
help I didn't i knew she had
good in her and and but you know she loved being out in the street and and and she was for the
streets oh yeah uh so that didn't work out really well but you got beautiful taming out of it he's

And I never forget it.
I went and I got him and,
and I,
you,
I wasn't a present father the way I should have been.
Well, you didn't know how to be.
You didn't have a father to show you how to be.
That's no excuse, though.
Sooner or later as a man, you have to take credibility and be like, hold up.
I'm not going to relive that.
Just because that happened to me, I'm not going to fucking live.
It's a moment to break the cycle.
Yeah, the cycle.
There you go. And I just remember walking into his fucking... It's a moment to break the cycle. Yeah, the cycle. There you go.
And I just remember walking into his room, and he had a garbage bag full of clothes,
and I was just looking at his room, and it was just how trashy it was and everything,
and I started crying.
Aw.
Yeah.
I took him, we threw the garbage bag of shit away, and I got him all new clothes,
and it was a rough road, man.
He's 10 to 11 i think he
was 11 and you know a new school and and new parent and and i'm gonna whoop his ass and be
strict but at the same time i had to love on him because i can't you can't just be with me full
time and the first thing i'm gonna do is be hard on you i had to love on him a lot and took a lot

meat freezer so it's like yeah i seriously i'm'm going to buy that hat. I'm telling you, man.
That's why I got the hat.
I'm from a long lineage of meat sales.
So after Taman came in the picture and stuff like that,
did you go to prison after that?
No.
Okay.
Okay, so here's the deal.
So I'm 24 years old.
And at 24 years old, I got a –
they originally charged us with a home
invasion
so me and my brothers had a bunch of
people over we had a party and there was an apartment
butted up to our fence
in the back of our house they started throwing shit
down I'm going to go real quick on this
they started throwing shit down anyway it led
one thing to another I'm on the phone with my
girlfriend at the time when they had flip phones like a razor
you know I'm like oh yeah
they always come and start yelling one thing to another. I'm on the phone with my girlfriend at the time when they had flip phones like a razor. I'm like, oh yeah.
And they always come and start yelling,
Adam,
I'm the first one
they come get.
Danny's crawling
up the balconies.
So I go after my brother.
We go up in the balcony.
We think we're going
to fight these kids
just talking shit.
We're not thinking
home invasion.
These kids are talking
shit to us.
So we go in there.
It's a big melee.
My other brother comes in the apartment building, kicks the door down.
There's 10 of us, five of them.
It's a fucking mess.
We all get arrested.
Our bonds are all 100 grand apiece.
In Illinois, it's 10%, so 10 Gs apiece.
And we bond out.
We fight that case for two years.
They finally, because a class X, that's a class X felony.
So it's 6 to 30, mandatory.
Were you guys armed? No, fuck no. we just went in there to fucking beat fight right some kids right because they're
talking people don't understand that everybody uses guns these days but back in the days like
we used to use fists yeah and and we you know we went in there and obviously i think i did have a
black eye after that was over too but you know we heard a lot of them guys a couple of our guys got
hurt but um we all went to jail.
We all bonded out.
We ended up fighting the cases.
I was the last one to get bonded out.
They're like, Adam's been in jail a bunch of times.
He'll be fine.
So they left me in there for a while.
But we all bonded out and fought the case for, like, two years.
Once a month, we'd all have to show up to court.
And they finally, the state's attorney's husband died.
She retired.
We got a new state's attorney.
Thank God. And they actually dropped it from a class x to a class one aggravated battery great
bodily harm they gave us all um uh three years probation and about three months into my probation
i violated with another fight in a bar and they hit me with an aggravated battery great bodily
harm to a police officer and then I fought that for two years.
So by that time.
You beating up cops?
It was brutal.
I didn't know it was a cop.
I had just got stabbed the week before in a bar.
And I felt it right here.
And I thought I was getting stabbed.
I'm like, fuck, I'm getting stabbed.
Because we're in a fight.
And I'm like, I'm getting stabbed again.
And I do this.
And I blast a cop.
And I turn around.
And there's a bunch more cops coming.
And I'm just like okay and they beat the fuck out of me all the way you know to jail into my cell and um so I was 26
at that time I fought that case for two years they finally dropped it down to a three-year
sentence I did about two years downstate Jacksonville Illinois M07581 is my number I'll
never forget it uh you know and when did this all come to an end
when were you finally just like dude i've got to calm my temper down and just i need to go a
different direction in life now like the last maybe year you really yeah like i when i i'll
tell you what prison was the best thing that ever happened to to me it changed it made me
it changed i'm not saying it changed me like oh i don't ever want to me. It changed, it made me, it changed.
I'm not saying it changed me like,
oh, I don't ever want to get in trouble.
It changed my mind and how I thought.
And it brought out a lot of toughness
that I didn't know I had.
You know, I'm a kid that's in prison for fighting, you know.
Oh, I could only imagine the shit you saw in there.
And I'm next to, you know, murderers and things like this.
And some of the nicest people,
some of the nicest people I ever met were murderers. We're in there for murder, you know what murderers and things like this. And some of the nicest people I've ever met were murderers.
We're in there for murder, you know what I mean?
But, you know, I didn't have a serious years.
I mean, you've got guys doing life, years.
And, you know, I'm in there for, you know,
almost a little over a year and a half, you know what I mean?
So you get out.
Where do you go from there?
I came home.
I started anything i could do
for a job to get a job uh you know i was shoveling snow i was the only guy that didn't speak spanish
you know it's a bunch of hispanic guys a landscaping company i'm driving a tow truck i'm
doing anything i can to to get a job to make money and then i got that phone call probably six months
uh after i got home maybe six months to a year after I got home, I went and got to him.
And we were sleeping on my brother's basement floor.
And every week I'd take a little money and we got one bed.
So we were sleeping in one bed.
And then I got two beds and we were sleeping downstairs with two beds.
And I kept working my ass off.
And then finally I got a call one day from one of my buddies in the union.
And he was like, yo, we got a job for you.
You come down there.
If you show up, they'll hire you. And I came came down and that's when i started working at the old plant um and and
that's where i thought i was gonna work for the rest of my life and die just like all the other
guys so when did you because you started okay so you did music but you kind of got your break
doing youtube right so yeah while i was working at the plant and just you know you're talking
hard hat and lunchbox and guys drawing dicks on each other every day and like shit like that, you know.
Sounds like my crowd.
Yeah.
Good times.
So one day I called off work because I used to lift weights a lot and I called off work because I hadn't been to the gym in a minute.
So I like my stepdad always told me never call off work when you're sick.
Call off work when you're not sick.
Are you close with your stepdad now?
Kind of.
I don't know.
Maybe it's me that's the problem.
But I was at home one day.
I went to go grab the milk.
And this all comes back to what I was saying earlier.
I went to grab the milk, Taman left the milk fucking carton in there with no milk in it.
And just instinctively, I went straight to the sink and poured water in the cereal. And I'm sitting there eating cereal.
I'm like, man, I'm making 50 grand a year, which ain't shit, you know, but it is to me now. And I
got my own place and I'm still eating cereal with the water in it. And I got my phone. I had this
old shitty droid cricket fucking phone. And, uh, I made a video about how today's kids are compared to how
our era was and and uh it just went like fucking nuts was that for vine or was it for youtube
facebook oh really that's where i got big on was facebook first okay uh and then you know i started
incorporating taming into the videos like how to raise your kids and what to do if a girl shows up to,
or a guy shows up to see your daughter.
Like just all the real big, funny, like fuck boy video.
Like there's just hundreds of millions of views
and it just, it went crazy.
Did you start getting paid from YouTube?
No, never.
So when I started making my money was,
I linked up with Grunt Style,
which is an apparel company and they're
like you want to make shirts and we'll give you a percentage and I was like sure so I started
thinking of these ideas and they had graphic designers I made these shirts I started getting
checks in the mail for like 30 grand a month wow and I was like after a couple months I went to my
job I was like I can't tie my boots up anymore and come in here it just doesn't make sense I'm
gonna go try to chase this social media thing and I didn't know what i was getting to at the time yeah uh and
then it kind of how long ago was this so this is i mean you're we're going fast now i hope everyone
at home is catching up yeah now they are um so that was at 35 when that so i was at the plant like 36 it's about six years when when shit really started
going crazy um and then when i left the plant i think i was 36 years old and and i i had like
i don't know a couple hundred grand in the bank from from my shirts they just went nuts
just the little sayings i put on them yeah like like that. No, it's crazy what that merch can change your life like that.
It's insane.
Glad y'all know something about it.
I don't.
Bunny sells more merch than I do.
Oh, lies.
So I got a lot.
Look, a lot of hard work and determination and grit and a little bit of luck.
And I got here.
And then because I was making funny videos all the time, Church, he used to make funny videos.
He doesn't really anymore.
He's more just music.
It's kind of his life now.
But right at the tail end of what he was doing with the videos,
me and him did a video together.
And when we did that video,
he was recording when he lived in the trailer
and he had like a studio on the side of the trailer.
And he was recording some music.
And I'm sitting there. And as he's listening to beat writing I'm writing and he looks over
he's like you you you rap or something and I was like yeah I grew up rapping so
I didn't have rap in my head at all right rap was done to me or something I
used to do but I was like this is white kid rapping just about he's not he's not
he doesn't have to um appeal to the urban audience
right like i did i had to i had to earn my respect and and appeal to the urban audience to be
accepted yeah because that was your that was where you grew up that's just what the times that was
the era yeah it wasn't even just where it was like at that time there was the white kids wasn't
rapping for other white kids.
It's what really happened.
In that era
you could only be accepted
in the hip hop community if you were
genuinely co-signed by
the urban community.
If the black guys did not stand
up for you and either say yo this dude's
dope or yo this dude
did everything he's in here
rapping about he's our guy i can validate that this dude is the dude he's acting like he is
no you're good is that how it was for you oh completely no that was in the same era
that era was just like i say it all the time is that why you had fucking cornrows
yeah i did too no i swear to god no i swear to yes i need a picture because my hair wasn't
long enough they actually had to put my my good friend tory washington uh uh his sister she you
know she braided hair and she had to get a little bit of weave because my hair wasn't as as long as
it needed to weave it yeah yeah i was really we really had to appeal to the urban audience there was no white
kids listen to there was nobody it was a totally different era but this was before the braids for
me i mean this was bald-headed you know jason from the neighborhood right like until i grew the hair
out in jail this right here was just you didn't have a there was no it's funny man because back
then i mean i'm sure there were guys like Adam doing it at the same time where they were.
And I'm sure that was happening across the world,
but I knew of personally,
besides a couple of local white dudes that repped of like,
there was like three famous white rappers on earth.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It was like,
this was like before my name is,
this was like pre Eminem. yeah, for sure. This is like, no, I'm the same age. Yeah. This is like, yeah, this is, this was like before my name is. This was like pre-M&M.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
This is like.
No, I'm the same age as Adam.
Yeah, this is like, yeah.
I totally know.
Yeah, you remember that era.
So it's like, now you throw a rock and hit a white kid that can rap.
You know, there's three downstairs right now.
Oh, yeah, no, that's crazy.
You know what I mean?
It's like just in this building.
That's all I listen to is white rappers.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, it's like so.
But back then, it was like, man, you had to really,
really, really
impress.
Bubba Sparks
would have never worked
without a Timberland
co-sign back then.
Oh, yeah.
100% chance.
Same with M and Dre.
Paul Wall, too.
Yeah.
Well, Paul Wall
was with your house.
M with Dre.
Yeah, there's no way.
There's no way.
Yeah, that era was...
People will never
really understand.
I had a little jealousy earlier i had to like
break a bad spirit about it because i'd watch these white rappers just kind of walk into it
yeah and i was like you never had to fight in the black barbershop freestyle battle and see what he
just said that's what most people thought about me because they only knew me from funny videos
and they're like oh you just started rapping one day right they don't understand the backstory of
it right i mean they don't understand the backstory of it. Right. You know what I mean? They don't understand. What was it? What was the name?
Mass Confusion.
Mass Confusion.
They don't understand.
Those days when I was sleeping in a trap house, rapping with a fucking shitty mic hanging
over a dowel rod and with a fucking blanket in the bitch, you know, and I'm in there with
a pair of Harley Davidson boots and, you know, all my guys and I'm the oddball in there.
I'm the only white boy in my old school.
No, you had to pony up the money to get in the battle,
and then you had to fight your way through the crowd.
Everybody stares at you.
And then when you won the battle, they would cheer you on,
but you probably had to fight somebody physically
because you offended somebody.
And you know what I mean?
It's ruthless.
It's like, I mean, dude, it was.
Wouldn't trade you for nothing.
It was brutal.
So you have no clue how many times I would show up to barber shops
in, like, the worst neighborhood in Nashville with Jazz Howard, Coach.
Yeah.
Have you met Jazz or talked to Jazz?
Yeah, of course.
I have Jazz.
Jazz would come out with a bankroll.
He'd just walk in, set 10 grand on the table, and go, who y'all got?
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Jazz still thinks it's those days.
For sure.
He's ready.
He's got a bag ready at all times.
To this day.
You know.
All right.
So let's go back so
church looked at you he said you rap you rap and uh i was like yeah i used to you know and uh
anyways i wrote a verse little verse and he's like let me like you know so i grabbed the mic
and and my headphones i i stand up to the mic and i just started rapping and and he was like that's fucking man that's cool as hell you know and um and I just kind of left it there at that but I went home and
when I went home I'm like hold I just you got the bug again well it was so weird seeing a white dude
rap about like his way of life that didn't appeal to like I said the urban community and it just
appealed to like you know white
but basically where he lives is just a bunch of white dudes you know you got
everywhere from you know hard-working blue class guys the rednecks over all
that shit yeah so I went home and I'm like let me try it let me see if I got
something in me you know and then you know I dropped the first album and and
you know it's about to go gold which is crazy but you know and the rest is
is a lot a lot of stuff in between so the reason you're out here in nashville is because you're
doing your last rap album right so i'm doing two more albums i'm recording my last one first uh and
and the one that that you know jelly like last No, last rap album. I don't want to rap no more. You know, I said, me and Jolly talked the other day,
and I was like, you coming to work tomorrow?
Because that's how I treat everything.
And he said, well, you know, I was planning on coming to the studio
and having some fun with my buddy and writing a song.
That sounds like my husband.
You know, and that's what it is to me.
I try my hardest not to work.
It's a goal of mine every day.
If you make it sound like it's a chore for my husband, he ain't coming.
Yeah.
I'm glad.
I thought he wasn't going to come.
I was like, fuck.
You have to always make it sound like it's fun even when it's not.
I'm always coming for Adam.
He does that.
Yeah, no.
He totally told me the night before.
He's like, I got to go.
Jelly Roll is a person that I call when I'm definitely in need of advice and knowledge.
He's wise.
I'm older than him, but he's wise beyond his years,
and I'm a little bit of a motherfucker sometimes,
so it's good to talk to him.
His soul is so pure.
Got that old soul, yeah.
I don't know what we were talking about.
We were talking about, so you're in Nashville working on your two albums.
So I got two albums coming out.
One of them I haven't told anybody about.
That's going to come first.
And then the album I'm working on now is the last rap album I'm ever going to do.
We're going straight into country music.
And that's another thing most people don't know.
I grew up every summer of my life.
The reason I am who I am today, if any good parts I have of me,
as far as loyalty and respect and, you know, always standing on what you say is from my
grandfather, Leonard Calhoun, rest in peace. Every summer I spent with him, shotgun like his dog.
Oh, I love that name.
Pikeville, Kentucky. And I grew up every summer in Kentucky. And, you know, so I got a little bit of
trailer, a little bit of country, a little bit of country,
a little bit of city in me,
and same as Jelly.
Do you feel like you don't want to do rap anymore
just because it's an age thing,
or you just don't like what it represents?
I'm just too competitive with it
and too mad and mean and angry with it,
and it's got a chip on my shoulder
because rap started off for me as a competition,
and I don't want to do that anymore
i want to make music that heals me now and and i'm at a different place in my life to where i
just would like to um i totally make music that just is can help people so many people yeah
you know therapeutic music yeah like jelly roll is working i've heard some amazing stuff from his new
album and you know off his i want to make some music that heals myself
and hope...
Can I get that for myself?
Yes.
Totally.
And then I would like to help heal some people out there
and I ain't doing it with rap
because all my rap is me.
Fuck you is me with rap.
I want to do some beautiful music.
I think you get to a point in your life
because my husband has seen me do this
for the past two years where you kind of go on like a spiritual journey where you want to shed
your old skin you want to shed those old traumas and you want to stop feeling how you've felt your
whole life i just want some peacefulness exactly i pray for peacefulness yeah and that's yeah yeah
i totally get it getting over the aggressive nature yeah i think that's something that we've
talked about privately that i'm sure you don't mind me bringing up like in this platform is like
adam and the talks we do have is normally me being like hey man perspective is your aggression
in that situation is not necessary i see what drives it there and i think he says it all the
time and i don't want to segue into something i know we want to talk about anyways, but I will by accident.
I think a lot of it, too, was when you see, I tell everybody, having a little boy and having a little girl evoke two totally different emotions in a man.
That's wrong, but it happens, right?
I mean, you guys are like, you have sons, and you want them to be alpha like you. And you have a little girl and you want her to be just sweet.
The story I tell is if Bailey fell when she was four or three, right?
It'd be like, hey, baby, how are you?
Get up.
Let's talk about it.
How's your leg?
She's not going to cry.
Let's get through this together, girl.
Let's talk about it.
You didn't hurt yourself that bad.
When Noah falls at three, it's like, get your ass.
Don't cry.
Don't cry. Don't don't stop that shit get
up now boy you know it's just the instinct is you don't want to you know how do i console her
how do i toughen him up it's not a right mentality but i think when that's passed down i seen it in
adam's face when that thing popped pink yeah i mean his face told the story of a man who at that moment was like of a man who was just just oh i was defeated some shit's gotta change but do you know that
the stronger sperm makes girls well you know what my mama used to say
did i tell you the story you know what my mama used to say boy you knocked the nuts off of her
no he did say that but just like tamen came into your life in a time that you really needed him,
this little girl is coming into your life in a time that you're ready for peace.
So she's going to bring you your peace.
I think it all comes into play.
So I always say whenever you're trying to level up,
like I told you last night, Daddy, you put it in perspective for me because I've been going through some shit, too.
There must be something in the air.
I feel like every time you're on the search for peace, motherfuckers just want to come for you and they just want to fucking target you for no fucking reason.
Can we touch on just touch on it?
And we're not going to mention any names because the people don't really deserve them.
But what happened whenever you first came here to Nashville this last time?
OK, like a black guy. Can they zoom in on the black guy? People don't really deserve them. But what happened whenever you first came here to Nashville this last time? Okay.
Like a couple days ago.
Can they zoom in on the black eye?
I mean, yeah, they can zoom in after I did it.
The black eye?
Everybody wants to know.
It's inquiring minds.
This was the most asked question when you asked.
This and other ones that we're about to get into.
So I'll just do it real quick. It's real easy there was an old artist that you i'm making an album i wanted all the guys that made
an impact at some point or other within the last 20 years of this thing they kind of kind of say
it's country rap and i wanted them all to be on my last album because in the comments you're always
seeing why isn't this person work with this person or this person? And I said, I want to have all these guys on an album.
And I think that'd be awesome for the fans.
So I brought in an older rapper.
And the first day in Nashville, we're recording.
I see him.
He's stressed out.
He's on his phone.
He's upset.
He's like, oh, man, this guy's trying to pull up on me and stuff like that.
I'm like, tell him to pull up.
Tell him to pull up. I'm here with you. If I'm with you, I'm with you. Like, let's upset. He's like, oh, man, this guy's trying to pull up on me and stuff like that. I'm like, tell him to pull up. Tell him to pull up.
I'm here with you.
If I'm with you, I'm with you.
Right.
Like, let's go.
There's that loyalty that you talk about, though.
Yeah.
Tell him to pull up.
Let's go.
And he's like, hey, he's here.
I said, you want to come out?
And I'm like, yeah, I got you.
Let's go outside.
And as soon as I walk outside, I suddenly realize, you know, as he moved to the back and this dude's
moving towards me this has nothing
to do with him
they're friends
I didn't know that cause I don't know who this motherfucker
is and he's in my face and he's
he's like you know
boom just right on the side
of the head
and I didn't know how to take that
man you know what i mean like did this
motherfucker just really do this you know what i'm saying like it's everyone knows i train a lot and
i train with a lot of like pro fighters and stuff like that that doesn't make you the baddest dude
on earth but i could take a punch right i could give a punch so i get smoked in the side of the
head and i'm thinking about so many things and which is so weird it was I was so calm and I was thinking about the studio getting kicked out which we did we got
kicked out that day you know that's ten bands see you later I think they gave me
half back but whatever I'm thinking about it's broad daylight in the middle
of what's what's town is that where I was at Belmont Belmont middle of the
street I'm like thinking about so many I'm thinking about getting sued
none of my guys
are with me
because usually
they talk
you know Adam
this shit
fuck that
so I'm like
okay
okay
I'm in a situation
and instead of
backpedaling
like they would have done
if they were in my town
and this happened to them
I just put the head down
move forward
and kept moving forward
and I stood in the
middle of the street
in traffic
and in a weird position no one having my back and it was just a totally weird situation a situation
that you shouldn't have even been put in well now i know it you know especially with his spirit being
just to help somebody i was standing that was somebody that's never even stepped foot in a
nice studio like that ever in his life and i was really trying to help this man because i was like come on man this is gonna be so cool if if this make you relevant again
not that and just how cool would it be for the fans to see like whoa this is so dope you know
and um i was excited for it yeah no you were i was i was excited for it because for me it was like i think it was like
the beginning of us all being able to work with this artist again right right like i think adam's
olive branch was like you know i thought it was cool because it made me even go home and have
perspective we talked where i was like man you know maybe maybe i should reach out to him and
i haven't talked to him in a long time.
Right.
You know, fuck, man.
He's working with Adam.
You know what I mean?
Like, man, I'd feel bad if he did something with Adam and not me.
You know what I mean?
Like, because this is the dude who brought me into this game.
But then he turns around and shows you guys why you guys have to talk about that.
And then he turns around and does something like that.
And it's just, you know what it is.
It's disheartening.
This is Adam's story to tell.
And that's one here here and that's another thing
the reason i got i believe to where i am today is is i never hide my my life i show people the
good my wins and my losses yeah the very next day i got on my shit and was like look take a look
screenshot it yeah remember this i'm not gonna hide i. Remember this. I'm not going to hide. I'm still here.
I'm not leaving here.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
You just worked so hard to get to where you are, though, you know?
And that's the whole point of bringing you out of your peace is the devil's going to fucking come against you as hard as he can. I think my perspective of this is sometimes lessons, the way me and you learn them and the way my wife has learned them have always cost us something
money occasionally a black eye time you know what i mean it's like i think there was so many lessons
in that for you and it was a lot of us learned from that experience for you you know i move
pretty diligently but it even gave me a moment of perspective of I should be more aware. See, and that's the thing.
I don't ride with security or nothing.
And you know what?
I should.
Especially being an online personality now.
Well, you're talking about I'm a multi-millions of dollars of my,
that's my brand, my company.
So I need to protect that.
I told Adam that.
I said, Adam, you're a multi-million dollar business i can tell
you this there's not a jewelry store in nashville that doesn't have a security guard at the front
when he told me he didn't have security i was like what i was like that's crazy it's him shedding
that aggressive tough nature i get that which is i think the beautiful thing about him like
realizing that too is like it's time to like it's a coming of age and the thing about this is
and that's why i said this isn't my story to tell but i want to speak a piece on this my problem
with the situation was it wasn't it's a coming of age for adam and i hope and i really do pray that
the other side it's a coming of age for them i mean you had i doubt it third you had men in their
late 30s because of how they are you had men in their late 30s. They're where they are in their life because of how they are.
You had men in their late 30s and their late 40s showing up to videotape a fist fight like we were 22.
Like it's a world star moment.
Yeah, like it's a world star moment.
We're talking about men with multiple children.
Right.
We're talking about men with multiple men.
We're not just talking about one man.
We're talking about multiple with like multiple men. We're not just talking about one man. We're talking about multiple men with multiple children.
We're talking about, you know, this is.
That was wrong on every level.
It could have been.
Absolutely.
You know what I mean?
Like it was.
It's just I'm not even mad.
Of course, it wasn't me to get punched, but I'm not mad about it.
Right.
It's like I'm just heartening.
Yeah, it's disappointing.
Like it really
hurt my spirit for especially because you got like i can i could understand that kind of behavior
from west coast dudes because west coast dudes are all fucking pieces of shit but you guys in
nashville have like a family you know and you guys all like are kind of like roll together you guys
grew up together you guys roll together you guys even if they don't deserve it
You guys still give props where props is due. No, we never shit on each other ever and see I'm not I'm an outsider
I'm not a Nashville native, but I made a lot of good relationships down here and I'm treated very but you're in the family
Yeah, no, that's what yeah, and I take that
And I keep that close to my heart because I know how important it is.
Because in this industry, there are so many pieces of shit.
And, I mean, perfect example of what happened.
But honestly, I beat myself up over it because I was like, I know what I do.
I know what I should have done more in that situation.
But the only thing I can say is this.
Not many motherfuckers in that situation
would have put that chin down,
kept moving forward,
and fucking just been like, fuck it.
You know what I'm saying?
But you shouldn't have even been put in that situation.
Yeah, but I'm glad it happened
because people actually get to see what you're made of.
You know, I talk on the internet.
I say these things on the internet.
They see me in a ring and doing this stuff.
But that happened in the street.
And what can a motherfucker say?
Hey, that motherfucker was out in the street. he didn't go hide and run yeah at least adam was gonna stand up and be out there so you know what i mean and and uh the situation just should
have never happened and i i felt terrible that it happened out here well you know i believe it or
not i feel terrible for all parties yeah you know i feel terrible for all parties. Yeah. You know, I feel terrible for those guys because they just,
any chance that might have been was just.
I mean, that dude's always.
It was like literally.
That dude's always been a sucker.
He's always rolled with suckers.
He's a sucker.
Yeah, it's just like the last slithering of hope.
You know what I mean?
Slithering.
Just to watch him.
Yeah.
You know, it just breaks my heart, man, because I just,
it's like watching your hero.
Yeah.
You know.
That's sad.
It's like what you just said. That just hit me. That's sad. What you just said, that just hit me.
That's sad.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
For me, all these years, it's been like.
It's like seeing Mike Tyson get knocked out.
That was my hero.
Yeah, it's like watching that dude has been like,
for all these years, has been like, man, I just pray that.
And I mean this when I say I pray.
I pray he shows a glimmer of who he used to be.
The guy that inspired me to be who I am right now.
And it's just like,
I hate to start talking like this.
Cause then I start getting,
yeah.
And it's like,
it's like emotions.
It's like one let down after another,
you know what I mean?
So when it happens,
it's like me and up church was talking about it yesterday.
We were like,
the saddest part is this last thing I'll say about it is we were all calling each other behind the scenes watching this adam thing play
out before it played out with excitement oh yeah like we were all secretly like yo man like what
if this dude goes over there and this works like what if this turns out cool yeah what if he's
sober you know what i'm saying what if he's coherent and makes sense and lays a banger and
you know like what if all this like we're talking to each other like kind of excited
yeah you know what I'm saying it's like you know
you're like it's like the old coach who goes
to play football again yeah it's like
exactly yeah you know what I mean yeah or the guy
um my favorite I always
reference the movie Cool Runnings it's my favorite movie
ever you know when John Candy came
back to coach that moment where you're like
he's gonna do it yeah
you know like we i was having
that moment yeah and then he just fucking does what he always does and gets in the way of himself
there's always one kid who shits in the pool
you're shitting the pool yeah the last thing i'll say and that's all and that's all i gotta say
about it is there's a part of me that's glad
it happened because it showed a part of me that I needed to see again and that part was after that
happened there was a there's a slight little thing that said you should go home and I was like no
fuck that I'm not going home yeah I'm staying here. I got a job to do. And that's what makes people want to follow you and give them inspiration.
Absolutely.
When shit hits the fan, what are you going to do?
You don't fucking tuck your tail and run.
Who would I be if I did that?
I'm not who I say I am.
Yeah, exactly.
I understand that so much.
There's a part of me that is glad that it happened.
So here he sits in the middle of Nashville on the dumb line.
Spilling all of his stories well moving on you know a lot of people want to know about your
personal life you know they want to know they want to know who adam calhoun is bonin a lot of
people asked about you and sav and i was just like that's insane they were just like were they an item

you have a little girl on the way and you are with a beautiful lady who's got a fucking nice
ass by the way she got all the hams listen the shitter on that critter is amazing she got all
the hams shout out margie's ass okay because it is fucking really nice how long have you guys been together
Margie was there with me picking me up from the train station uh when I had no license no car
and she was like this beacon of light kind of like the sailor sea uh you know the big light
when the waves are crashing and go to and and and you know winter snow rain she was always there when i
had nothing um she's never heard me talk like this i love that though i think it's so sweet
i don't tell her any of these things so uh you know but you're changing and her hearing that just hearing that you know is going to be really special uh she um
she was there and and and it was crazy because i'm not a guy that's ever been tied down to a
chick and i i can remember i broke up with her and and she was taking that she wasn't taking no for
an answer and uh i said okay you want to be let do this. Let's move in together and let's just do it.
And we moved in together.
We lived in this little shitty duplex.
And then, you know, I got a better job.
We moved in like a townhouse.
And then, you know, the money started coming from the apparel.
And then, you know, I quit the job and we moved into, I bought $180,000 in cash to buy this house.
And they're like, that's not how you buy a house.
You know, that's, you know, and so I had to go and do paperwork and sign for it.
That's how I was whenever we were buying our house.
I'm like, so what do we do?
What are we doing here?
Yeah.
And then we bought this little tiny house.
Even today, she's like, I would trade all this, you know, if you're mine.
Because my mind goes on me sometimes. My i never sold my soul i would never do that
but i feel like it's taking the parts of my soul giving my life and my world to everybody around me
but um she's like i'd give everything sometimes just for you to be okay and go back to that little
tiny 900 square foot house and um so we got from that house we bought we bought the big fucking house
and she didn't even know i bought it one day i just went there and i said this is the one and uh
i i drove her to the house and she's like i was like this is our house now this is just a big
you know the driveway's a quarter mile long you know and uh you know she's been there for me you
know going to the hospital fucking my jaw and lip hanging off me in a bar fight.
She was with me when I would be drunk and never come home for three days and pull up in the driveway halfway out of the car.
You know, she fucking should not be with me to this day, but she stayed.
That's a good woman.
That's what women are supposed to do.
And she got a better me.
You know, i spent four
years of no drinking uh you know she i mean shit she was there with me and struggle we're shooting
our video and i fucking got second third degree burns all over my arm she's been in the hospital
a lot of times with me she's got to deal with her own trauma too just dealing with you
poor baby she she was always there when I had nothing.
Didn't ever want nothing.
She's the most unmaterialistic person.
She's selfless.
And she's beautiful.
And she's part of the reason why I am here today.
She's part of my story.
But I kind of try to keep her away from this industry and what I do.
And I'm going to say some shit that people might not
understand but I know you guys are gonna understand uh that's my life at home and then I do have a
life that's not at home when I am on the road and I'm away from home and there's women around and
do you guys have an open relationship on a nipple a big fat nipple we're gonna talk about that I
heard you say that the other day stick a finger in a butthole do you guys have an open relationship or you guys just have an understanding
no this is tough this is tough this is tough no if she was with a guy i would fucking go
yeah i would probably i don't know what i would do i would be upset right um but she understands
that you're a musician yeah and there's shit that goes on yeah but
she doesn't ask and she doesn't and i i i used to be kind of bad with it as far as
you know just not being the greatest ever all dudes go through that yeah but i didn't know
i didn't know what am i doing i mean this is fucking porn stars and all this shit around me
all the time right and i'm like you know he's got these crazy bitches with tattoos all over their asses and faces and

Let's fuck.
Where are we going?
You know,
I think it's cool
that you guys have
an understanding though
because you know,
that's what makes it work, dude.
That's how Jay and I are too.
Well, she has an understanding
motherfucker.
You better bring your ass home
and don't be doing no bullshit.
But she knows
that she's your home.
You know,
a woman can be home.
You don't have to have
a house to be a home.
A woman can be your home.

What is going on with this Pop-Tart situation?
Okay.
So you got to understand, I always broadcast me.
Me.
No matter what day I'm having.
So my thing with people, they're always like, man, I want to do what you do.
And I'm like, first of all, no, you don't.
They don't understand what goes into it.
Fuck.
This is the hardest job I've ever had in my life.
But I always tell them, say the things that you think to yourself that you're like, well, that's fucked up.
And say that.
Fucking say that.
That's what people want to hear, right?
Yeah, no, for sure. So I was up one night that fucking say that. That's what people want to hear. Right? No,
for sure.
So,
so I was up one night,
I go downstairs,
it's like two in the morning and,
and I'm looking through the pantry and I'm like,
yeah,
fuck yeah.
It was just pop tarts.
It was chocolate pop tarts.
I'm fucking eating them and stuff.
And I'm like,
I don't lie.
I'm talking to myself in my kitchen.
I'm like,
yeah,
I just fuck moms and eat pop tarts.
And I'm making voices and shit,
you know?
Cause I am a, there is a part of me that still is funny. I used to be way funnier. Now I'm more to eat pop tarts. I'm making voices and shit. There is a part of me that still is funny.
I used to be way funnier.
Now I'm more kind of like...
I feel like I've gotten more serious in my old age, too.
Well, the music business will suck.
If you're not careful...
I was looking at old vlogs of mine the other day.
I was like, man, I used to be on fire.
I'm fucking fat and old and angry.
Baby, you're hilarious.
You are a funny motherfucker.
Jelly is funny. Once he gets in the pocket, he starts going. Oh, you're hilarious. You are a funny motherfucker. No, Jelly is funny.
Once he gets in the pocket, he starts going.
Oh, no.
He's fucking hilarious, dude.
So, yeah, I was making that voice and shit, and I just got on my phone.
I was like, listen, I'm coming to fuck everybody's mom.
Just have Pop-Tarts ready.
And then I did a thing the next day, like questions, and they were like,
how many Pop-Tarts would it take for you to come fuck my mom?
So I'm like, all right, this is the thing.
I could probably do about 100.
Literally, that's what the questions were saying.
I was like, what the fuck is going on here?
How many times has somebody gave you a Pop-Tart at a show?
Every single show.
So every show I go to, they bring me boxes of Pop-Tarts.
And my favorite thing, my Uncle Jimmy Rex.
