Starting point is 00:00:00 Just got the leaf of cook box. Yeah, you have a spot. We mark one up real quick? Yeah, absolutely. Oh, Cones. Happy day Thanksgiving. Thank you. I appreciate it, man.
Starting point is 00:00:12 That's awesome. That's crazy. Do you always roll like that with that bag? Yeah. Goes everywhere you go? I keep the pre-rolls just in case somebody don't feel like rolling. And then, you know, I usually, I like to roll fatties. So, you know, just options.
Starting point is 00:00:29 How much is in there? that starts as a pound and this is probably i think this is maybe like 250 or 300 or might be 500 i'm not sure okay and how how long do you think that lasts you this last me about two weeks the box yeah yeah and that last that lasts me about two days about a not for real maybe like maybe like two days if i'm in the studio for sure damn when did when did you launch this Yeah, bro. I've been working on Khalifa Kush for like a decade now, man. Damn.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Yeah, I started it with Burner. He put me onto the game and just showed me about genetics and just really smoking the best weed in the world and shit like that because I was always into pot, but Bernard definitely, you know, showed me what the menu was hit for. Yeah. How do you define that, though? like the best weed
Starting point is 00:01:28 like for you is that wouldn't that be like personal well he said it's about genetics yeah it's about genetics it's about TAC but is it just the shit that gets you the highest or it's about what gets you the highest it's about what's the cleanest
Starting point is 00:01:42 that's why it was grown the cleanest that's the thing when you learn more about weed you learn more about the process of growing in the soils and just you know what really actually good weed is as opposed to just like thinking because it's sticky and it's green that is good weed so you know i kind of just it just
Starting point is 00:02:02 elevated my my knowledge about it that's all what did you learn like what does make like good weed well one thing is like when you burn it the color of the ash um you know certain weed isn't really flushed of all of the chemicals and things like that so if you don't flush it well uh you're just going to be smoking a bunch of toxins and shit and some people are smoking moldy weed out there as well so you know old and mold and um you know even just as far as like curing it correctly some weed isn't cured correctly and you know it's like an old school rule if the stem don't snaps in the back a lot of people don't even know shit like that so just really really being up on game if we showed up with some mids like mid tier shit would
Starting point is 00:02:51 you call us out or would you be would you hit it still i wouldn't hit that shit hell no no you'd let us I would have to call you out. I would have to, like, you know, let you know that you could be doing better. Have you ever had to do that? Absolutely. Damn. Yeah, there's plenty of times where... That's got to hurt.
Starting point is 00:03:07 There's plenty. I mean, nobody wants to hear that they're not really smoking the best weed, but, like, you know, there's levels to this shit, dog. So it's like, at the end of the day, like, you got to do better. Especially a fan. Imagine a fan coming up to you and just, like, offering you a joy. No, but like, no, that shit's mid. I think you have to keep it really. with them because like people look at you as kind of like the king you got to do better yeah and you

And that's, if you, if you can own a strain or some genetics, then you're, you're
Starting point is 00:05:33 really ahead of the curve. And that's what we do. So you have like the patents on the certain genetics. Yeah, yeah. Damn. That's interesting. That goes super deep. Yeah, hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Thank you, bro. And are you guys like, how many like states are you in in countries? Fuck. I forget the numbers because I'm not really good with numbers because I actually smoke all the weed as well. Yeah, I'm smoking bud. And, you know, those things just kind of like fly around. So I'm not exactly sure, you know, exactly how many states.
Starting point is 00:06:04 But there's Florida, Pennsylvania, Maryland. We're going to New York pretty soon. California, of course, Vegas, Arizona. That's great. You guys in Canada, too? Yeah, we're in Canada. We were in Canada. Then we left, and then now we're back.
Starting point is 00:06:21 We're moving overseas to Germany, Thailand, and things like that. So, yeah, it's picking up. And it's just, you know, we're part of the company, Truly. So wherever True Leave is distributed, that's where our products are distributed. And as, you know, laws changed, it's just... Truly the alcohol? No, True Leaf. Oh, True Leaf.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Yeah, yeah. He doesn't smoke like we do. Yeah, yep. Roll break. Let's keep going. Okay. Have you been in the studio? What have you been working on lately?
Starting point is 00:06:52 I know you have a couple of mixtapes coming out. Yeah, I'm on. always working on new shit um i got a new project coming out at the end of this month it's called decisions i'm going to drop that on the 30th so the last yeah the last friday or the first so the last Friday of this month um i got that project coming out and pretty much i'm just going to keep dropping projects like monthly until uh i feel like dropping my album and you know um going on tour and things like that but I use these projects and all of this content and stuff like that just as steam to build up because you all know how it is you just have to stay active and
Starting point is 00:07:34 things like that it's not really focused on one project or if you're that type of artist then you want to focus on one project cool but I've always been a volume type of person yeah so that's really where my focus is at is just you know doing a lot of how do you try to make like each project different though i don't it just whatever flows if it sounds good at that point in my life like that's just what i talk about i feel like because we said we like i think i was in middle school or high school i used to listen like deal or no deal yeah compared to cabin fever completely different vibes yeah it's just wherever i'm at in my life like i'm usually making those projects um simultaneously So while I'm finishing one, I'm loading up the other one.
Starting point is 00:08:22 And whatever I didn't accomplish on the last project, I usually end up doing more of on the next one. So I was like when I did Cabin Fever, I think there was like burn after rolling before that and then cushioned orange juice. Yeah. So it's like those are two totally different sounds, but they came out like back to back. So I'm always just going to cover all bases. all basis. I got so much material and just shit that certain people are going to like it. Certain people are going to dislike it.
Starting point is 00:08:55 But I just don't give a fuck. Like, you know what I mean? That's how you like create moments and carve like, you know, your name into like history is you just be fearless and do shit. And I'm not doing it for no reason. I don't expect anybody to look at me as a genre bending artist or any of that. I'm just putting out material. That's it.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Yeah. Do you ever get discouraged on some projects that you do put out and then like it doesn't do to your standards at all? No. My standards are getting it out. So as long as I get it out, I'm good. And I couldn't be discouraged if it exists. Because just even the process of putting together a playlist and listening to the songs and mixing it and mastering it by the time it's out, like that's the success to me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So everything that I do. you know i'm just happy to get it out yeah for sure i feel like when we were listening like the chevy woods era and all the who's the other dude currency yeah yeah that was all the smoking phase and then cabin fever with juicy jay was like that more turn up hell yeah so do you like do you like do you have different waves when you're in the studio of what's more laid back and what's
Starting point is 00:10:05 more like party vibes it just it's all about the the production um whatever production i'm into at the time. And that changes like weekly. What just what's going on with your life? What's going on in my life, what I'm listening to, what sounds good. I'm surrounded by a bunch of different producers. So if I'm in the studio with Cardo and he gives me a pack of 20 beats and 13 out of those beats are really good, then I'm going to record 13 songs and then that's what people are going to hear. And then I might go in the studio with Juicy the next week and he gives
Starting point is 00:10:42 me a pack of, you know, beats, and those are the ones that I record over. So that's pretty much how the mixture of, like, kind of eclectic music happens is I just hang out with a bunch of people who I fuck with and I record bulks of music over, you know, different producers, you know, sounds. I always wondered that, like, if you were to guess on one studio session, how many tracks you think you could get in one night? Who, me? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:10 shit like fool songs or yeah nah I'm not even for me I could do like 10 songs in a night yeah yeah yep
Starting point is 00:11:21 and what you just pick like yo this one hits get other people's opinions no you just load it up you just be like this beat rap over it bring up the next one
Starting point is 00:11:31 wrap over it bring up the next one yeah yeah yeah you always have a question how long did it take you for you to make I roll up because I don't know why
Starting point is 00:11:40 I just like, that's my favorite song for you've ever made. That song never gets old. And it was just such a like, it's like chill, but like it's so, I don't know how to explain it. But you're like falling in love at the same time. Yes, weird, man. But it's weird in a great way. Yeah. Like I just, I want to ask you, like, how long did it take you maybe for that?
Starting point is 00:11:57 Like, I roll up for you to make. That was a quick session, actually, because I wrote that one after I did black and yellow. So, um, I was working with Stargate. And they hadn't really well. worked with too many hip hop acts at that time. So me being on Atlantic and me coming off of doing mixtapes and really just writing records the way that I want to or just aiming stuff at my fan base.
Starting point is 00:12:25 This was like the first couple times that I was writing songs that were aimed towards the radio. And I remember being in the black and yellow session for sure. I was like, yo, I'm just gonna write the first thing that comes to my head, like, whatever I think, and I hear this beat, and I'm going to write it, and I'm going to be confident about it, and I'm going to stick with it, and that's how Black and Yellow came out.
Starting point is 00:12:49 So by the time it was time to do Roll Up, black and yellow had already hit number one, so they were like, yo, we need another single. They were like, cook it up now, like basically get in the studio, fucking make a song. So I heard, like, I only had like two or three beats to choose from, and that was one of them. And I remember I wanted to do like something cool, something friendly, but something that still, like, kind of talked about weed and, like, got the weed agenda across. So I figured it would be kind of clever to do a song where it was, like, talking about I roll up, but saying it kind of in a, like, a playful.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Yeah, how many times a day do you say that already? Yeah, so it was like playful, like, towards a chick kind of, but then still, it's still me saying that I'm rolling up. Like, it's like, I'm talking about weed and shit. yeah so yeah for me uh you like the roll-ups probably like more like the the fruity like the white boy shit and then i'm on the prince of the city too god damn love it right so there's levels to this shit right that's my favorite track of all time by the way god damn love it you like that song yeah cigarette with the sack rolled in it damn where you from colorado oh okay started smoking weed early you grew up in a gate no i did not there was no gate just a door got or like a
Starting point is 00:14:06 There was a boot, like a bottom of a Mercedes. Like a phone booth or like a security booth, but not, no gate. That's a good song. That's a really good. That's how you know it's smoking good shit though. That's a good pick. Gated community. We're not smoking the low-tier shit. Wiz, talk to us about growing up because I knew when you were younger, you were moving around like a ton, right?
Starting point is 00:14:22 Like you lived in like Japan. Yeah. That's crazy. What was that like? Japan was cool. I was just explaining it to somebody the other day. It was like being in a military environment. You're like, like you said, gated.
Starting point is 00:14:36 It's kind of. it's like just a bit walls up and shit and like separation between being on base and off base so yeah it was you know it was an experience how many different cities did you live in when you were younger man i like i said i'm not really good with numbers but it was a lot i went to a lot of different schools i think like 10 different schools um wow before wow that's a lot yeah yeah what what is doing being in that many cities how does that culture influence your music does it like do you take something in from every culture? Hell yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I remember living down south and discovering, like, screw music before it became popular. And just being in that culture, like, while it was happening, definitely helped me appreciate, like, different types of lyricism because I was listening to, like, dipset, and just really lyrical stuff at that time. And this was when music was changing and the culture was changing. So to be a part of that shift and to be in different areas of... the country while that stuff was happening was really important to me learning about music how did you get that like big break because you were uh you were like an intern at the studio right
Starting point is 00:15:49 yeah and then how did that go from like being an intern to like how'd you get that first when you got called into the booth or you were going in there after no it was it was really a process man it was like something like I started out paying for studio time yeah and then the owner in the studio, his name is E. Dan, he was more on something, like, you're really tight. I was 16 at the time, so he was like, man, you're better than a lot of the adults that come in here. So he started letting me record in exchange for me working there. So it happened from me being at least 16 until 19 to me getting a major deal.
Starting point is 00:16:26 And then from me being 19 to about 22, 23, to, you know, being on the radio and shit. And I love to hear it so inspiring. Like, when you get that major deal like how does that come about it's a process man what's that first call you like something coolest call was from edan like him telling me that i could work at the studio because i was still in high school i didn't expect that shit everything else is like you know it seems like something but you got to really you're working to get that keep going yeah yeah it's a process and back then it wasn't like you could just go viral on
Starting point is 00:17:02 the internet and shit like i had to do promo tours and radio videos and all types of shit that really like ground work like ground level putting in the work type shit that you know made it to where I could be where I'm at right now so it was like real artist development and shit like that but they don't really do that
Starting point is 00:17:20 them more these days it's so crazy to think about like rappers used to give their CDs out on the street yeah like how far away are we from that niggas don't even use CDs no more because there's no CD players like it's just crazy the hustle the hustle though is just different like
Starting point is 00:17:35 give or think about that how what you had to go through grind wise and now you could fucking put out a TikTok go viral get well content creation is is difficult as well that's a job and I come up from that era too like my my audience is from YouTube so I had to be you know OG content creator with my day to days and um you know Twitter and all of that shit when it first started um that was the way to interact and and build your fan base so it's like now it's more in the hands of the creative person and the you know the team surrounding that as well which i think is more beneficial yeah and even then too because you could pop off off one ticot track but that could be so short-lived yeah at the same time so it doesn't really make it any easier right
Starting point is 00:18:27 I'm just saying to get that attention out of the gate, you have, it's easier access-wise. Yeah, yeah, it's definitely a lot easier access-wise. You've got more eyes, and there's pros and cons to it, and it all just boils down to, you know, you're working for yourself. Nobody's really going to do the shit for you. Like, they'll catch on later, but when you start in, it's pretty much dependent on you and how much you put behind. yourself and that's where I was at like the majority of my career right what was your inspiration going into music all of us know that um I do I'm a really big fan of music I love music like I come up in that Napster era like downloading shit and like downloaded
Starting point is 00:19:14 mixtapes and going to the the the the bodegas to get mixed tapes and shit like that so it's like a the way we consumed and digested music just made me such a big fan of it that, you know, creating it kind of, it wasn't even, it was real, but it was like I was just emulating what I was seeing at the time. And then I started to learn the business and really figure out my own style and shit like that. But the inspiration just comes from, you know, being a huge fan and loving, you know, the culture so much. What was your first, I thought earlier, I told them, I thought it was say yeah, but like your first big viral moment, would you say that was it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:58 How did your life change when that went crazy? Because that was everywhere. It didn't go crazy. What? The track? Yeah, yeah. I thought it was everywhere. Yeah, it was a good song.
Starting point is 00:20:08 We were working it though. It was a radio song. So it was like, with radio songs, they start out, you work it, it peaks, and then that's that. Yeah. So that's what Say Yeah, did. Like it just, it peaked at number fucking, I don't know, like not anything. impressive and it was kind of like back to the drawing board after that like they didn't uh warner really
Starting point is 00:20:34 didn't know what to do as far as an album with me so they just released me and i was able to you know kind of just restart my career and figure things out on my own yeah what do you think was like the biggest learning lesson when you were younger before obviously you made it now but like while you're grinding yeah the big the biggest hurdle or biggest learning lesson you had to go through The biggest learning lesson I had to go through is like realizing that stuff's not permanent. Kind of when I got my deal with Warner, I didn't, I thought, you know, you kind of, I kind of just bought into the fantasy of you get a record deal, you're on, and things take off from here. and it didn't happen and I was still able to
Starting point is 00:21:24 pivot and make things work in my favor so I was like okay it's not that bad if everything your people say that they're going to do they don't actually do and I think that's a lot of people's biggest fears where they're like be careful of Hollywood in the game because everybody's so fake and they'll sell you a dream
Starting point is 00:21:43 and it's like all right these guys sold the dream it didn't work out and I'm fine so you know I conquered that Did you ever got intimidated by that, though? Huh? You ever got intimidated by that when people were to, oh, you never did? No, not at all. I didn't let that intimidate me at all.
Starting point is 00:21:57 I went harder after that stuff happened. And that's what really made me, you know, into who I am. And it wasn't even out of bitterness or spite. It was just out of necessity. It was like, okay, well, that is gone. So, like, it's not an option no more. So how am I going to, you know, still achieve this without that? And then, you know, luckily through timing and resources with being the internet and stuff like that,
Starting point is 00:22:25 it just worked in my favor to, you know, where I was able to manipulate the system in the game to, like, pay attention to me. Yeah. Yep. Do you ever feel like you have to transform or, like, change something just with the way, like, adapt to what people are listening to now, right? Mm-hmm. Or do you just stay true to yourself? No, I don't think you have to adapt to what people. are listening to now, but I do know that, in my opinion, the way to progress and transition
Starting point is 00:22:58 through eras is production. So you can still be the same rapper, but you have to wrap over different types of beats. You have to wrap over new producers. You have to incorporate new sounds. And that's where you don't get lost at. And I feel like that's really important. Yeah. How about like music aside, like back then you said you had to focus a lot on like radio and stuff like that. In this era now, what, where do you like, what's changed with like your strategy quote unquote or like where do you have to spend more time now? No strategy changes because it's all about attention. So if you can gain attention, you're going to win.
Starting point is 00:23:36 And that just goes for bottom line for anything and any field that you're in. Like what you guys do with podcast is to get attention. You can have a two-hour-long conversation, but you're going to try to find the best clip to put out there that's going to get the most attention to make people want to watch it. So that's what we're trying to do. And, you know what I mean? That's the goal.
Starting point is 00:23:58 So it's using whatever you have your tools to bring those eyes to you to make those people gravitate towards what you're giving them. And me, my product is music, but I'm also selling a lifestyle as well. So it's like, you know, how do I just bring as much attention to that? What about like the way you carry yourself you think is so different than? Like, what differentiates yourself besides weed, like, you know what I mean? I mean, you know, I think there's a lot of solid people.
Starting point is 00:24:31 I'm really relatable. And in my music, my fans, they really listen deep. And, you know, they listen past the weed and the coolness. and they hear the motivational stuff that I say and the bottom line, you know, goals that I try to, you know, get people to be on. But also, it's just fun. Like, it allows you to, you know, have fun and, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:57 be loose and be yourself in situations that you want to feel like that in. For sure. Yeah, yeah. You've probably told the story, but when you finally link with Snoop, like obviously you guys bond over weed, right? Yeah, yeah. Hell yeah. What was the first link up like?
Starting point is 00:25:12 First link up, smoked out, shot a music video. We smoked hell of weed and it talked about... Was it competitive? I don't mean to cut you off, but was it competitive? Nah, no, it wasn't competitive. He's the OG. So he was like teaching me shit that I had never known at that time. This is 13 years ago.
Starting point is 00:25:31 So, yeah, he taught me some stuff I didn't know about weed at that time. And came up with a script for a movie, hung out all night. I think he was really trying to test me to see if I was going to let, if I really smoked as much weed as I said that I did. So, of course, he's like rolling up back to back to back to back to back and I'm hanging in there. So, you know. How many blunts or joints?
Starting point is 00:25:51 Can't even count them, honestly. It's like, when you smoke that many, there's no possible way to count. Bro. God's jokes. There's a song, people under the stairs. I can't even, I don't know what song is, but he calls out everybody saying that no one smokes like he does. Like, is this, is when you're at that level, is it competitive with people?
Starting point is 00:26:09 nah i mean you're just smoking naturally and you're just seeing people like kind of fall off the wagon and shit like that and then it's like with us we the type of niggins like you pass out we're gonna like blow smoke in your face and shit like that yeah you don't want to be that guy yeah i mean it is what it is so it's like you know that's like the dude that wakes up with the sharpies all over his face like yo you're you're you're loser all right this this may sound like a stupid question what was the last time you got actually green the hell out like green the fuck out like it may be a long ass time ago or whatever but like paranoid no just green the
Starting point is 00:26:45 like you just couldn't handle you just couldn't handle the wheat i don't think ever bro i could always i can always i could always handle my weed man okay what what what is okay what is that what what is it with handling it like what what are you even the first times you smoke like i yeah i generally want to know yeah yeah nice i mean you just you're in control of that shit like there's nothing really bad going on anyway like weed only brings out the happiest coolest funnest shit and the only way to like
Starting point is 00:27:20 if you're super duper stoned and you're feeling a little wild just smoke more weed yeah would you say with chicks sorry I just want to really ask but would you say with chicks get some real chats going on? I really want to ask these questions um would you say with chicks?
Starting point is 00:27:37 with chicks you vibe with chicks more off weed than drinking and I'm probably sounds like a stupid question but no it sounds like I really want to ask like yeah I mean there's different vibes yeah yeah for sure I mean like with alcohol clearly like you're going
Starting point is 00:27:53 take some shots and get fucking loose like that's like you know what I mean those are the rules but with pot it's definitely a deeper connection um you're gonna remember what happens um just talk about weird shit No, that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:28:08 No, you don't talk about it. Oh, that's a good point. People don't talk about that enough. If you smoke weed, you're going to remember the whole night. Yeah, you're going to remember it. You might have some moments. That's like a good... She's got wore some talkies at that in the night.
Starting point is 00:28:19 That's a good plus. The connection is deeper with a chick just than getting like drunk and sloppy and doing something rather than like smoking a joint, listening to some cool music. Yeah. She remembers you based off of that music. Y'all might watch a movie. crack up during the scenes, you find out what her sense of humor is. So you're developing a deeper connection and you're like in her mind now as well as
Starting point is 00:28:47 what you want to accomplish with smoking and hanging out. So it's just a better connection in my opinion. I think that's facts. It's way more player. Could you ever date a trick that didn't smoke? Yeah. Yeah. It just doesn't really work all that well because I smoke so, so much.
Starting point is 00:29:02 I smoke so, so much. Have any of your girls ever been like, yo, Whiz, can you just not smoke right now? My baby's mother don't smoke weed at all. So when she was pregnant with my son, I couldn't smoke around her for the entire nine months because just the smell of weed, like, made her regurgitate. How irritating was that? It wasn't irritating at all.
Starting point is 00:29:22 I mean, you know, it was definitely a task because I had to, like, wash my clothes as soon as I get in the house. I'm coming home from the studio. And I just want to get in the bed and go to sleep. She's like, nope, like getting the shower, don't touch me, don't do nothing. so it's definitely you know something but yeah she's not a weed head at all she don't even fuck a weed even now to this day but um might have made her hate it
Starting point is 00:29:45 nah she she got her own problems with that shit i don't know what the fuck her up you got to walk us through like when you wake up right like do you reach to the table most people reach for their phones yeah what's your morning routine yeah i grab a joint first thing like so you wake up instantly to the bedside right away like lighter and joints right there. Yeah, yeah. We smoking unks first thing in the morning, baby. As soon as our eyes open, unc up.
Starting point is 00:30:12 What's the best smoke of the day? Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Probably smoke in between those days. I mean, what's the best smoke? Every smoke of the day is the best one. Damn. Book club on Monday. Gym on Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Date night on Wednesday. Out on the town on Thursday. Quiet night in on Friday. It's good to have a routine. And it's good for your eyes, too. Because with regular comprehensive eye exams at Specsavers, you'll know just how healthy they are. Visit Spexavers.cavers.cai to book your next eye exam.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Eye exams provided by independent optometrists. That's just, I feel like your tolerance. I'm so fucking faded right now off, what is this? I'm just getting like secondhand fucking. Calipha Cush, I'm just fucking. Okay, Kyle, take it. I feel like that. Box would last us a year and a half.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Yeah, take a hit, bro. All right, fun. Take one hit. Just one hit. There we go. All right, guys. We got him. What if he's going to call his mom to pick him up in 20 minutes, bro?
Starting point is 00:31:15 It's all good. Is that cool? When I was younger, I used to smoke a lot, but I just kind of stopped. Yeah. I used to hit bowls. What do you do when someone around you has that happen where, like, the kid that gets the paranoia and starts tripping out? Yeah, yeah. Do you try and calm him down or you just spectate?
Starting point is 00:31:31 No, I just kind of just chill, let it happen. It's what it is. Maybe we're on the ride. How did you ever deal with like the laziness aspect of like smoking? I don't get lazy. Not saying you are lazy, but more of the, like a lot of people do say like, like for me, I don't smoke a lot because I know it can make me kind of lazy in a way. Like that type of question.
Starting point is 00:31:52 It affects you differently, right? Yeah, it affects you differently. No, I do. I mean, you know, everybody's inclined to like, it feels good to just get high and chill, but you just have to. Yeah. I mean, that's just the obvious. So you got to fight that.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Okay, so people ask us, like, top three podcast guests. Do you have a top three people you've smoked with? Snoop, be real burner. And currency. I got to put currency in there. Any, like, random? What about, like, a random aspect person? Random.
Starting point is 00:32:20 Oh, man, shit. Like, someone you wouldn't think would smoke or, like, just a random. I feel like Seth can smoke. He can smoke, but it was like, you know, we were on set, so it wasn't, like, you know. Yeah. If I'm going to smoke with somebody in this, in this, gonna be standout we gotta like go on a mission we got to like eat burgers we got a laugh we got you know what i mean we got it's got to be a legendary like situation can't just be like
Starting point is 00:32:46 quick hit the joint piece out yeah i'm not tripping off of that shit yeah i'm tripping off of like really vibing with somebody like and i don't really get the chance to do all that too much yeah do you invite people though like randoms like you almost see if this guy will smoke with me the trailer box it out um No, really? It's motherfuckers will volunteer for that shit. They'll ask for it. Well, that's the other thing.
Starting point is 00:33:10 It's like, it's a pretty legendary moment. Yeah, yeah. A lot of motherfuckers just volunteer. They're like, yo, I mean, they'll see me over in the cut, like, getting stoned. Because that's my favorite thing. Like, if I'm anywhere, I'm just going to probably just post up and go in a corner and get stoned and shit like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:26 So anybody who's brave enough to come over and fucking ask to hit the weed, like, that's usually a good time. They should have, I think you got to make. make rules if they smoke with you bro like you gotta smoke two joints you have to hang out for this amount of time you know what I mean like they can't just getting second hand high I think is pretty cool like if I'm in a car with you
Starting point is 00:33:46 they're fucked they're getting high as fuck yeah you're getting fucking stone just by sitting next to me like it's all good what's your favorite thing to do besides music when you get high I like bowling damn you put spin on the ball you put spin on the ball and all that
Starting point is 00:34:04 are you nasty at bowling i'm really good what's your best score yeah like a 2 87 i think that's high like so you're like wait what's perfect 300's perfect 300's perfect it was almost perfect holy shit yeah yeah yeah how'd you learn to bowl like that practice was there action on that like did you bet on that game or was that just practice no man it was just just we we go down there and we practice so it's like you know get 10 frames and i almost hit 10 strikes That's sauce as fuck I feel like you got to set that as a goal You got to hit 300 before I'm gonna do it
Starting point is 00:34:36 At some point Especially if you take a girl on a bowling date And you're nasty at bowling Yeah Is it lame If you throw in strikes the whole time Is it lame if you pull out like the helper Or if you go help
Starting point is 00:34:45 That's his thing? The guards Yo they're saying that's your flex Oh Oh yeah How to go What did you shoot though You're not breaking 200 are you
Starting point is 00:34:55 Oh okay Yeah we break two We're averaging like Hypothetically You go out there, up there. Hypothetically, if I put the guards up, is that... You put the guards up? If I were to, I would never do that.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Why would you want to put the guards up? To get a better score, like, if I'm not a daily bowler. All right, that's all good. Fuck it. Will you still show me love? Or is that like, yo, this kid's a loser. No, you gang, you with us. Guards up from my boy.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Are you still doing M. Yeah, I still do M. Like, Jiu Jetsu, and... Muitai, wrestling, all that shit. Yeah, because there was like a photo of you, man. You got fucking shredded. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, how did you get to a jade?
Starting point is 00:35:31 Yeah, lifting weights. How long was your, like, how long was your, like, kind of transformation? When did you start taking it seriously? I've been in the gym for six years now, and that picture was probably, like, the second year. And it took about, you know, took about that long to start seeing results and shit. What made you say fuck it? I enjoy that shit. I still do.
Starting point is 00:35:52 It's just, I tried it. And if I like some shit, I'm going to keep doing it over. and over and over and over. And the thing about weights is if you do it over and over and over, like you kind of start to see that shit. Do you change your diet a lot? I just eat more.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah. Yeah, I wasn't really eating as much. Yeah, so. You were just eating whatever you wanted to? You got a good metabolism. No, I probably like, yeah, yeah. I got crazy metabolism. But I was probably only eating like two big ass meals a day.
Starting point is 00:36:24 Like I would be in the studio all night. And then I would wake up. and then I would probably eat in the afternoon and then I would wait all day and then I would go to the studio again and I would eat big one more time but then when I started working out it was like wake up at 6.30
Starting point is 00:36:41 eat, have a protein shake have lunch, work out have another shake, have a snack have another shake, have dinner have another shake what made you love Muay Thai so much? Just doing martial arts and period, I mean, in general, it's kind of cool to me. And I was good at it initially, like, still in, but it's like off-rip.
Starting point is 00:37:08 It was something that they were like, yeah, you're really good at this. Like the kicks, I got really strong kicks and the timing and just, like, fight IQ, just knowing how to move and shit like that is everybody don't pick up the same things that I picked up in the amount of time that I did. Yeah, we're huge into UFC. We go to a lot of fights. You observe a lot, huh? Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:32 Yeah. That's interesting. Who's some of your favorite fighters right now? Like, do you watch? Yeah, I like everybody, man. I got, we got our own company, the PFL as well. Francis Inganu is going to be fighting over there in the PFL. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:48 What did you think about that fight? It was crazy, y'all. It is pretty fucking crazy to me. I was super duper surprised. Well, I thought Francis should have won. Yeah, and Ghana won Yeah I think he won, yeah
Starting point is 00:38:02 But it's crazy I was surprised he was as good as he was At boxing he was he was boxing really well Well shows how much power he has right Like dude that guy got power He was hanging down there like he was His defense was good His counters were cool
Starting point is 00:38:15 He got a knockdown Not just a knockdown But he fucking knocked that fool down Yeah Yeah he even clean as hell bro Like that's the heavyweight champion In the world Bro I'm gonna be honest
Starting point is 00:38:25 That kind of fucks me up when you see like a McGregor or Nagano go and fight the best boxer and they're like toe to toe with them that was the most competitive one yet that just shows MMA is like I mean in my opinion it's more
Starting point is 00:38:39 dominant in boxing obviously like you know this whole debate with boxing in MMA like dude that just shows how much power in Gano has been that was so impressive bro like watching that like that was fucked and everyone was writing them off too Fury fucking not didn't he knock down wild there a couple
Starting point is 00:38:54 times right? Yeah yeah he'd be wilder That's what I'm saying. So you have a guy who's got no, like, going from MMA to box the best fighter, and he's knocking that guy down. It's just... I don't know. I'm very, actually, like, so happy for Ngano because now I think he's about to fight,
Starting point is 00:39:09 like, Deontay Wilder. Is he? Yeah, I've seen something like that. But he's just like, dude, I was impressive, man. Yeah. What's your involvement with the PFL? I'm like a brand ambassador. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Shit, I'm just a part owner of a motherfucking company. Yeah, yeah. That's all, goddamn it. That's all. Yeah, hell yeah. Yeah. How cool is that to be just different venture? Like, do you like getting into, like, different businesses like that outside of what you're used to?
Starting point is 00:39:34 It's cool because a lot of it, well, for this one in particular, it's lifestyle shit. So it's stuff that I'm really into is not forced or anything like that. And it's fun to be a part of stuff developing while it's on this way up. We just recently purchased Bellator, which was our only other competition other than. in the UFC. So now it's us in UFC. And yeah, just looking really good from something that started
Starting point is 00:40:04 as, you know, all right, this is an idea, this is a structure, this is a system. We pushed it. We believed in it. We sold it. And it's becoming successful. Okay, going back to the music stuff, what do you think up until this point's been your favorite project thus far?
Starting point is 00:40:21 Like, do you do it like that? Or do you just put them out and it's on to the next one? I'm just always creating. So, like, I'm not oblivious. It was like cushioned orange juice clearly. Yeah. It's like the biggest one. And that's my favorite one because of how it was made and the intention behind it.
Starting point is 00:40:40 But, you know, I love my albums. I love my other mixtapes. I love stuff I'm working on now. It's like everything lives with people through different stages and stuff like that. So it's all up for interpretation. And what's, you know, what might be a standout moment to over here is a different standout moment over there. For sure. Are you thinking of creative, like, just throughout the day, day to day?
Starting point is 00:41:09 Like, I mean, where do you, when do you think of your, like, your best ideas or something that you just jot down in your head or maybe put in. Yeah, I'm always coming up with ideas and storing shit. It's like, I look at it like, have you ever seen a producer who samples? No. Okay. So if you ever seen a producer who samples, they're like always taking little records and taking sounds. It could be a little, a snare, it could be a voice.
Starting point is 00:41:38 It's a snap or something they like. And they're all, and they're just building their catalog of fucking sounds. Okay. For when it comes time to make a beat, they're like, now I, that's how I do my life. I'm just always collecting for when it comes time to do some shit. So no matter how small something is that you see, okay. Yeah, one thing I'm curious about, too, is like, when you write music, are you ever in that mode where you're like, yo, this actually isn't for me? I got the perfect guy I'm going to hit up for this.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Like, yo, this would work for somebody else? No, I never really feel like that. I always just write, kind of. But have you written for anybody else? Yeah, I've written for other people. And how does that work? Like, someone reaches out to you and they're like, yo, Wiz, I'd love to have you co-write this project. Yeah, it'll be like that.
Starting point is 00:42:24 or usually it's a collaborative effort. We'll usually be in there together and just kind of go back and forth or play off of things where I could say stuff my way and then they'll be like, okay, yeah, I like that, but can we say it like this? And it's just tailoring it and using my taste in music or words or what rhymes or cleverness
Starting point is 00:42:49 and just creating something out of it. You think that like us four could hit the booth and come out with a banger? Fuck yeah. Actually? Like how many seconds would you give each of us on the feature, though?
Starting point is 00:43:00 Would I be on there too? Yeah, it's your track for the features, bro. No, no, no, no, no. It's got to be y'all's song produced by me. That's way... Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Yeah, yeah. But like, how are you giving up the rules? They're not going to feature on it. Uh-oh, I'm starting to see it. I'm starting to see it. Okay, three of y'all. What's a song called Dry Streak? Dry streak?
Starting point is 00:43:21 Dry streak? Yeah, I haven't gotten late in like four once, but whatever. Thanks. It's personal choice. So you're on the first verse. Thank you, bro. You'll do the pre-hook and the hook.
Starting point is 00:43:30 And then you'll do the second verse. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Tris Street. Trashy, that's a dance too. Can you produce that? Hell yeah. Maybe send us a pack or some shit. We should really get in the studio and make this happen.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Let's do it. We could do it. You let us know when. I think it's terrible. What does your studio session look like, though? Because we got levels to this shit. Like, this is what the studio session looks like right here. Like this?
Starting point is 00:43:52 Yep, just like this. But how serious is it? All right. It's not serious. This is chilling. We've got the mic over there. We can invite some girls if you want to. For sure.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Can one of you guys pull up a beat and then we just start? No, we can't do it here. We got to do it in the studio. See, he's getting a little paranoid from the... Oh, not. I'm just saying. There's no point in doing it here. We'll drop bars right now.
Starting point is 00:44:12 We can write right now. Let's do it right now. Let's do the no pad old school. Okay, maybe not. Let's do it. Why not? Where is a joint? All right.
Starting point is 00:44:23 All right, that's fun. Fuck it. The jam is called dry streak, right? Yeah. Call dry streak? He said it's dry streak. Yo, Whiz should fuck with Stiney when he comes back if he lays a bar. You should just say it's trash.
Starting point is 00:44:36 This is dry streak beat, all right? So I usually come up with a hook first. Mm-mm-mm-mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, all right. Okay, throw that streak. Why me? Why me? I've been on a dry street Dry street
Starting point is 00:44:55 That's your part Why me? Why me? I've been on a dry street Dry street That's actually hard I know I'm wrong Why me? Why me?
Starting point is 00:45:05 I've been on a dry street That's your part right there We got the hook already Throw a little auto tune on that in the booth I'm fucking You could just talk it Talk it the same way I'm talking it You want to say it with me?
Starting point is 00:45:17 Really quick I want to make it clear We should also probably address Like everyone goes through a dry street At one point in their life Like it's not just me. This could become like some lonely island type of shit right now. This is how we come up with it. You say stuff like everyone goes through it.
Starting point is 00:45:29 It's not just me. It's not just me, right? So when we write your verse, I make sure that I put that in there. Yeah. It's like. So what were you saying? Dry streak.
Starting point is 00:45:36 I'm on a dry streak. Drash streak. There you go. I don't want to say that, bro. Uh-huh. Oh, why me, why me? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:44 But then my, then my verse is going to get deep too. Mm-hmm. Because I'm not. Like, part of it's like, you got to get like vulnerable. Like, get like, So what he's doing right now is he's thinking of a verse
Starting point is 00:45:53 Wow, he just said So yeah But part of him is not just like he's trying to throw shade Part of it's my choice You use your you use your points as punch lines Yeah So when you say like every Everyone goes through it
Starting point is 00:46:08 Should I do tears or no is that too deep? You say what? Should I like have tears come down? No Can I be honest I'm just trying to tell you how to structure your bars Okay Maybe in like the third verse of the bridge
Starting point is 00:46:18 They're already there I'm just trying to bring them out Yeah Yeah, yeah. So all that relatable shit, like that's what people want to hear. What else? What else about a dry streak is like, no, like, yo, she wants to go back. Or we want to leave a club.
Starting point is 00:46:31 She's going home. Okay. That's relatable. Okay. Like, yo, I got a boyfriend. She's been on a last streak, last street. I'm just going through what I've heard the past few months, right? I got a boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:46:40 I'm on my period, maybe next week. Okay. Which is happens to everybody, bro. Yeah, yeah. Everyone can relate. It does. Very relatable. All right, cool.
Starting point is 00:46:50 I think we got a jam. I don't think so at all. No, well, we got to go out. What about your verse? The hook's fired there. What are you touching on? To tell you, the God honest truth, I don't even got a verse. No, but what would be your topics?
Starting point is 00:47:01 What would be your topics to touch? I like talking about equality. Quality? What I mean by that is like, there's no equality in life nowadays now. You know what I mean? Like, with men and women. That's the only reason why. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:15 So your dry streak is by choice. No, not at all. fuck? Wait, what's you're saying? Oh. Your drive-stricken by choice minds because I can't get late. Oh, yeah, you can't get laid, of course.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Like he's saying you're going for quality only. Yeah, yeah. I think quality, I think it's tough to find quality. So, yours is like he's he's saving himself. He's looking for the right one. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:47:41 That's actually a good song, because you got two different approaches. I'm telling you how to write a song. You got yours, you're like, ah, now you got that. I had that joint. Now you got the homie. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:47:54 So, yeah. We might have to write at the studio. We got to really make this song. We're in, bro. We can go viral, bro. Let's do it. Yeah, all right, cool. How do we get the studio?
Starting point is 00:48:06 Who takes lead on that? I'll get us in the studio. I'll focus on writing, bro. I'll get us in the studio. I'll make sure we got the beat. I'll make sure. This is the beat. This is the one.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Yeah, yeah. Are these beats that you have saved up for the right tracks? Or how do you pick your beats? Remember I told you, I'm like, saving shit all day every day so I always got beats that I feel like
Starting point is 00:48:24 if I like it that I could just put it on and record to it at any given moment I might be in I might just be sitting there with some money
Starting point is 00:48:32 can I ask you a question what's an obscure artist that you really really like that nobody would guess Madonna fuck with that answer
Starting point is 00:48:40 yeah who else is that Madonna or do you have like why Madonna though why Madonna he wasn't expecting

We're getting educated by one of the legends, bro. That's good. Like, have you- It depends on what you consider a dry streak. A dry streak, you ain't fucking.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Yeah, but for what period of time? For a period of what you think is- I would consider a dry streak in, like, this world, I would say probably three weeks is like a dry streak. God, yes. I mean, two weeks, you could just be a little off your game. It's like, all right, what's going on? Three weeks.
Starting point is 00:50:19 bro. You're pan again? Yeah, you're on a dresser. Right? I just want to ask your opinion on that. What's my opinion? What's my opinion? I didn't even hear what was the question?

I would definitely just, you know, get stoned with aliens and play them the Isley brothers. Do you think they've already been here or no? I think they've been here and they think it sucks and they probably don't want to come back. Yeah, bro. I've been thinking too.
Starting point is 00:53:16 It's like, have you seen, you've watched men in, black recently? Yeah. You've seen it with Will Smith and Tommy Jones. But where it's like they're in the human body and they open up the head and it's like little alien. That's what I think. That's what I'm saying is I think that that's what I think they do.
Starting point is 00:53:32 They might be able to look like a human being. That's what I think. I could see that. And they're secretly running the world right now. Yeah. Like one of the servers are a bartender at a restaurant. It's just too risky like being a little old alien like that though. because people are already dumb enough
Starting point is 00:53:48 and like just killing shit so it's like why would you want to risk like getting you know if you're what type of research are you doing maybe their planet got like fucked up and they had to come relocate here and they're like shit there's these animals here we got to fucking take over yeah
Starting point is 00:54:04 I could see that what if what if they were growing more fire shit would you move there? What? Like if they're going top shelf weed over there but it's a light year away would you go there would you stay here? I'm chilling here. Yeah. Yeah, just because
Starting point is 00:54:18 we already got shit on lock here. You think aliens with smoke weed? Huh? You think aliens would smoke weed? Hell yeah. I think they would be down. That's a good way to make peace. Like, you could settle down and have a good... Everybody loves weed, bro. No one's ever getting in a bar fight or fight in general high as fuck, right? And even if they haven't explored it yet, being the first one to put them on some bomb-ass weed, you're always going to be the homie. Have you ever, like, I see a lot of rappers will, like, turn, like, deals
Starting point is 00:54:46 down in Dubai to do a show because they don't allow weed. Has that ever happened to you? No, I do my shows over to Dubai. I just don't smoke when I go over there. No, that's what I mean. Oh, but you'll go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll go over there.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Yeah. Yeah, yeah. No, I don't turn it down because of weed. I've turned down shows in Dubai recently because I just didn't really feel like being in clubs and shit and that's all they really have over there is like just straight up
Starting point is 00:55:09 like rooms like this and then you just go and you're like... Clubs and hookers. That's it. It's cool. fun you know it's fine but it's not for everybody not all the time
Starting point is 00:55:21 especially a long ass flight just to go to the club and shit yeah it's a lot man for real though will you still go out to the club once in a while me yeah no no no I open I do I do I mean it's just
Starting point is 00:55:39 I feel like the music and the DJing has changed a lot so just the way that people enjoy the club and shit is not really it's fun yeah what do you think when you say that what's changed people people used to like really dance like in the club and shit like that like dance and like talk to each other and shit now it's more of an ego thing huh yeah well I feel like just the way that it's set up like how it's all sections and shit there's no
Starting point is 00:56:10 like real dance floor for people to like bro that's fucking facts I I didn't even know what you mean by dancing like i can no like not like back then in the day like having a girl and moving to the beat with her yeah like they're focused on the sections and not on the DJ he's been thinking that no like they're they're actually noticed on service and they're not focused on the music or like it's all about like yeah type shit i mean it is it is right but you know there's social climbers in this world right so like when it comes to like how everything has been going on in social media, right? When she's
Starting point is 00:56:48 posting ass photos and getting all these fucking followers, right? You're going to have followers, you know, wanting to be like that type of person, right? In a way. So I think social media is fuck. I mean, because everyone's in different groups nowadays, right? Like when it comes to like the club scene,
Starting point is 00:57:04 I've noticed that too, but like subconsciously. But it is interesting to me too. Now that, like you mentioned that. Yeah, I just think nobody be dancing. That shit sucks. I know. No, I think the point of, like, going out to hear music is to enjoy the music and shit. I think the guys are with their boys, like, turning up harder.
Starting point is 00:57:23 You don't even see any chicks, like, knees to the elbows, whatever, right? Unless you're a booby trap at 4 a.m. with me. What's good? My bad. Isn't it weird how nowadays saying hi to someone just randomly on the street is, like, weird? That is weird. That is weird. I feel like you don't.
Starting point is 00:57:42 If you think about it. What's, like, the most public. place you'll go to because I don't see you going to Starbucks to your coffee I go out but do you go to Starbucks like and pull up like yeah I mean I go fucking everywhere you can ask the people who sell me my dog food how many dogs you have yeah I got three dogs seven dogs uh pit bull and two frenchies oh man that's a nice frenchies yeah are they trained kind of I don't I don't mean to throw shade but I just don't see you carrying the bag and like picking up the poop with the bag And disposing of it properly.
Starting point is 00:58:16 I mean, if I have to, they don't really shit when we go on walks. I got a big-ass crib. So they're like, they got backyard. They just go on walks to smell, smells. They get tired,
Starting point is 00:58:24 yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it's to stimulate them. You know what I mean? Like, they're a little freaks. So you got to keep them,
Starting point is 00:58:31 keep them, get that energy out. Right. They're, dude, low-key Frenchies are fucking aliens. They swear, bro. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:58:37 their eyes are kind of. A little rascal. They're not, they're not snoring shit. They're crazy. But then one of them's in men in black. The little pug. That's a pug, yeah, yep.
Starting point is 00:58:46 Do you have a booth or a studio at your crib? I do have a studio in the house. And what's different about going there and then like going to a studio that you... I like going to the studio outside of the house because I like to get dressed and put on like, you know, my chains and shit like that. But being in the house, you like, you get to come up with, like, just whatever idea at whatever time. And it's kind of a little bit more free. and, you know, just off the cuff. You could do a track in your PJs or...
Starting point is 00:59:17 Yeah, for sure. In your underwear straight up if it's up. Yeah, 100%. Mm-hmm. Have you ever... Like, was there a last banger you made at your crib? Where it was just like almost effortless and you're just like, damn.
Starting point is 00:59:28 Yeah, I mean, you know, I recorded the house all the time. And I was recently just in the house for, you know, a long-ass time, period of time. So, you know, just recording some mixtapes, watching movies, coming up with ideas. It's really personal and closed in, and it's just, like, real fun to do projects like that. Yeah. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:59:51 Like, if you had to do, I know this is crazy, but if you do, like, your top three go-to, I'm super high or I'm faded movies, do you do that? Like, are you a repeat watcher? Because I'm a repeat watcher. I got go-to movies for show. I mean, they're classics. So it's, like, where everybody should love, like, Scarface. Superfly Foxy Brown
Starting point is 01:00:17 Pope Fiction The Business Boys in the Hood Don't Be in Menace Juice Yeah just shit like that You're basic I feel like you go stepbrothers
Starting point is 01:00:31 Or like Wedding Crashers type Wedding Crashers is a fire movie Yeah That never gets old bro Is that crazy You go watch that shit a thousand times And you're just so funny New time every time
Starting point is 01:00:41 So well written Rachel McGress is a fireman Adam's a smoke in that movie, too. Yeah. Well, she's like the optimal wife in that movie. Yeah. Like, sweet girl. Oh, she's so dope in that movie.
Starting point is 01:00:51 I know. Bradley Cooper's hilarious. She's hot and mean girls, too. Of course. Yeah. That's a classic too. What do you look for in a good woman, Wiz? She got to have a good sense of humor.
Starting point is 01:01:01 She got to know, like, really good music or be open to learning about good music. I like chicks who are, like, you know, funnier than they are cute. And, like, nurturing chicks, too, because I'm a, like, real family-oriented type of dude. Like to find nurturing. Just, like, the type that you could be, like, yeah, I can leave a kid with her and... So you're a traditional man. It would be, I. Like, if it's a chick that is, like, too much fun, I mean, there's fun girls, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:01:36 But it's like, you're not really going to be able to take her that serious if you can't look at her, like, I can't. even leave a plant around this bitch like yeah yeah yeah so yeah that's that's that's type of shit i look forward when you play i want to compare i'm sorry i fell cutting you off earlier but um so you're a traditional like you know role type person like you obviously like when you said the nurturing thing with the woman yeah i mean right you would expect a woman to nurture your kids and stuff so are you a traditional like did you grow up in that background right yeah hell yeah i mean i got a really good relationship with my mom and really good relationship with my pops so um as adults i think the older that we get the more we look at you know where we come from as a sign of our
Starting point is 01:02:27 behavior so if you're going to get with somebody you you want to make sure like their background is like kind of checks out or it's at least something that you you want to deal with so it's like when shit start happening you're not wondering like why you know what's a pet peeve you have in women um that you meet like a red flag like just like what's what's something that's like ah yes i don't like when when women talk about other guys yeah can you name a can you name a like a situation that that's happened in the past like in the industry you know i think a lot of chicks name that's kind of common like they're like like so yeah it's that kind of like common the chicks you're talking to for sure yeah
Starting point is 01:03:09 this guy not true at all bro i want to ask but i'm just saying like when we go out like the same girls will come around sometimes so like when you're in the industry the same girls are hanging out like with the rappers whatever name dropping is in line right that's common sometimes i mean i stay away from it so if if you're like talking about your experience with somebody else or saying somebody else's business like that's an immediate red flag towards me like i'm not the type of person who's going to be like going towards that and wanting to hear more of it or hanging out or even chilling with you knowing that that's the type of person that you are i could tell you really value like genuine conversations yeah and i can see where you're
Starting point is 01:03:49 coming from when you're saying that yeah um does it just happen like just randomly like where you think the chick and it's just like throws you off it's annoying because it's like yeah right yeah yeah it's it just comes out of nowhere and it's like i didn't even ask to hear that you don't need no negativity yeah i'm not a negative person i don't want to know anybody's business i don't want to let me not only that that you think that's cool if they do that exactly but not only that then you're hella cautious around that chick because you know she's going to speed her mouth well well from there you're you're practically done so like um what i mean like no i'm just i'm passionate on this topic no i just i i like biology like so um it's interesting because
Starting point is 01:04:33 as soon as like that thing is said that throws you off right it's totally done from there and it sucks to think that like damn they think that's something cool to really just drop exactly that must be very frustrating man yeah like that must be very very frustrating yeah push you in a weird space because you kind of want to defend it and then you just be like you know what I'm just going to be like the bigger man and just let it slide and just unless she's a 10 nah then it slides no you got to like you gotta be a player man yeah you guys you guys got to be a player when do you think it's appropriate to take like introduce to your mom take a chick to introduce to your mom like how long
Starting point is 01:05:12 does it take for that like personally it's two weeks for me three weeks what man I live in game bro I live a crazy life so my mom met a lot of chicks before she was supposed to but you know does that teach you anything no it just is what it is like sometimes it just like it is what it is I feel like mom I don't have a rule on on mom meeting because my mom is a G. So she could meet, she can meet some girls and, like, act like she never even seen him before. She's not to, like, you know, she's not taking it too person.
Starting point is 01:05:49 She's just more like another one, but I'm going to act like this a new one. You know, this was before. Have you ever been intimidated in front of a girl's father that we met? Never? No. Have you, sir? You never even get a little bit nervous at all? Like a girl you really liked?
Starting point is 01:06:04 No. You're like, I got to make a good impression? Absolutely not. But that's also because you're going in there as fucking Wiz Khalifa. No, not even that. It's like, if you don't fuck with me, you don't fuck with me. You got to stop having this, right? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:06:16 Do you smoke up around the parents' first, like, first family dinner? I'm not going to smoke the house out, but, you know, I'm going to smell like a shit ton of weed and I'm going to smoke when I want to. That's a power. Yo, I think that's how we got to pull up is. Just walking the family's house and just dank up the whole house. That's what I'm saying. Next time I get invited over to the chick's house, I got to pull up with that bag and just put it on the table. I'm not trying to impress.
Starting point is 01:06:36 No dads. No. but like just let them know that. Put it right next to the cranberries. Yeah, that's bag on Thanksgiving. Like, sorry, brother. If the dad's fuck with me,
Starting point is 01:06:44 I'm cool with it. Like, I fuck with pops. You know what I mean? But it's like the whole trying to like check me and all that shit. That shit ain't never going to happen.
Starting point is 01:06:53 I'm a fucking millionaire, dog. Like, who's right? See, that's where that comes out. Who's where it comes out? Come to see you at the fucking bowling alley. Here, hit this. Yeah. Let me see you bowl at 287,
Starting point is 01:07:06 asshole. Where's the big bole? Is it Pittsburgh or L.A.? What do you say? Where do you do the majority of the bowling? Here are Pittsburgh or is it just... Wherever I can. We have our own setup.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Like, we come through with the bowling bag. We got the shoes. Gloves and shit. We got all that. The white. What's the guy's name, Pete Wheeler, right? Or what was the fucking Pete Weber? Weber, Whitt?
Starting point is 01:07:28 Yeah, the crazy guy. What do you say? What's his famous quote? We say, who are you? I am. Who you think you are I am? Yeah, dude was out of. Did he bowl a 300?
Starting point is 01:07:39 Oh, for show. Yeah, he's a legend, bro. We do a lot of pranks on our other YouTube channel, and we once did this prank bowling in other people's lanes. Remember that, Slim? Yeah, you probably would have killed us. That would be hell annoyed. Yeah, Idaho is, no.
Starting point is 01:07:52 How do you think you'd react to that scene? Bro, right here? I'm super chill, so I would just laugh. I'd be like, this fool this is crazy. But bowlers are passionate, too. Like, we almost got fucked up, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe it. Where do we film that?
Starting point is 01:08:05 Filmed in Idaho. That was like a weird. A gun out? Huh? Someone, like, pulled the gun out. Yeah, that was an idle. Okay, wait. Wait, let me give you a scenario though.
Starting point is 01:08:14 It was in like a white, like, what? Oh, yeah, so he just pulled his strap out. No, like, what happened? So we walked in. That's cool. And as soon as like, we literally just fucking just took over the place. And then that person or the girl was like, why the fuck you are? Well, the guy that pulled his gun out, maybe he was nine strikes about to hit his tenth strike for his perfect ball.
Starting point is 01:08:32 Yeah, I could see how that would be annoying. Right. Then you got to react like that. Right. All right, well, guns going in the bowling bag. I just didn't think it was that serious. I'm just fine. The perfect score is a perfect score, bro.
Starting point is 01:08:47 You got to respect that. No, that was pretty risky. Who's your favorite guy to collab with? Juicy J. Juicy's one of them. Tie. Yeah. Currency.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Burner. Chevy. Is there a guy that you go to when you make a track and you want to be like, bro, I need real advice? This is who I'm going to hit up, and he'll be keeping it a hundred. hundred or whatever no it's more always just like a collaborative effort like if there's something that i can't do on the track and i'm like yo it needs this and you know i usually hit up one of the homies you ever be like yo i got to i like what this new guy's doing i got to see if he can get on
Starting point is 01:09:27 this yeah hell yeah i love to collaborate with with new people my way to usually do it is to like reach out collaborate over some of their tracks and stuff yeah Just to let them know, like, they're on my radar or, like, that we mutually fuck with each other. But, yeah, as much as I can, I love fucking with anybody new. You like to, like, study or just kind of, like, always watch for who's next up type shit? Yeah, I wouldn't really say that I, like, study them. I just pay attention to the climate of music and how shit changes and who's catching a wave, who's high, who people are paying attention to, who people are talking about. and the best way for me is to just like develop my own experience with the music and you know luckily like
Starting point is 01:10:14 I've always been like a tastemaker or an influencer to where like if I say some is I whoever's on my platform or whoever fucks with me they fuck with it too and it ultimately becomes a thing so you know just being able to cross promote I think like everybody's really into that now. It's like collaboration and you know, using what you're best at on both ends and trying to like maximize that shit.
Starting point is 01:10:43 That's what it's all about. Oh yeah. If you like you, I think personally if I had to just say I'm going to tell you I think Taylor Alderice is your most timeless album. Thank you. For me like I was hitting it on the Stairmaster earlier. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:59 What was it? Guilty conscience. I was fucking banging. Got me through an extra 10 minutes straight up. But what do you think is the most timeless album that you listen to? Like, that's just older. Just the albums in general. Just like, I mean, that's timeless. Like, for me, I think of like get Richard I trying like a 50-second that you can still listen to today.
Starting point is 01:11:16 Yeah, hell yeah. That's from 2022, right? Bro, I'd be listening to hell of shit. Like, Jada Kisses, what album was that? Kiss of Death. Or Kiss the Game Goodbye, that album was hard. Um Prodigy
Starting point is 01:11:34 HNIC Nas Stillmatic Everybody loves Illmatic But stillmatic was hard Because Ether was on there
Starting point is 01:11:43 Um What else do I'd be listening to I was listening To Master P Ghetto Dope Um Bone Thugs And Harmony's first album
Starting point is 01:11:54 Like East 1999 That's hell of classic shit man GZ Trapper Die or that's the mixtape or thug motivation yeah thug motivation yeah yeah we still listen to that we're listening that on the way up here yeah there's hell of shit that you could slap off of there like like right now or if you play it in
Starting point is 01:12:13 the club it'll go off the dream his album love hate that's a classic album yeah yeah see but i'll be like playing like i'll put you on some shit that's what the smoking weed does like gives me the best playlist in the world. So I play like back to back to back to back bangers. You'd be like, what's this? What's this? What's this? All bangers. I got shit you can ride to. I got shit you can work out too. I got shit you could chill to you
Starting point is 01:12:41 with your lady too. And it's going to be a movie. So what you're saying is you're probably the best guy to give the ox to at any given situation. Yeah. That's a huge thing too. Hell yeah. Like if you can't catch the vibe and you're fucking controlling the music, you're going to kill the night. And I got the vibe around
Starting point is 01:12:57 multiple crowds too. It's not just you know it's not singled out you gotta be versatile on the ox yeah it's not singled out it's key I've been to Napa and been on the ox
Starting point is 01:13:08 nah yeah what the wine tasting and held it down what was your okay what were you like what's the Napa Valley I'm not getting me on the Napa playlist
Starting point is 01:13:16 because I might have to you know go in one day so it's over here it's up in here yeah I always think about like I held it down people doing uh have you ever thought of doing like a holiday album
Starting point is 01:13:28 yeah yep because I always see this stat every fucking year Mariah Carrey how much she makes a year off her one you know what I'm talking about Jingle Bell All I want for Christmas
Starting point is 01:13:40 Every year it's just like bags Yeah I would do a holiday album for show Maybe we put Drystreet on that Can we get Dry Streak turned around by then It'd be a weed Christmas album Dry Streak has to drop at the top of the year Okay
Starting point is 01:13:55 We gotta spark the year with Dry Streak we should do it that should be that would be like some lonely island type shit yeah like where it's like a funny song but it's actually still a track but you gotta be honest with us too if our shit sucks you have to tell us like of course it's not gonna suck no but if like our first verse is his hook is ass like it's not gonna be bad we gotta be critical of each other though this is the thing no you have to be real with each other i think yeah i really cool you guys are talking about like if it sucks but it's gonna be good so like no What about that? At first, if we were to, like, say, we give you a first verse or whatever. First verse, what if-
Starting point is 01:14:31 We're all gonna write it together, so it's gonna, it's gonna be good. Like, you don't have to sit down and try to write it and then come back to me. We're gonna sit down and collectively say, yes, we like this. And then you're gonna go in there and then you'll wrap it. And then we'll be like, you could say that a little better, you could do that a little better. And then all that part of, yeah, it'll be good. Because I feel like sometimes it's like someone has too much of an opinion, right? It's got to be a collective effort.
Starting point is 01:14:56 No, we'll all collectively write it. Bar for bar. It'd be like, this is the first bar. You'll say it, we'll say it together. And you'll be like, okay, hell, yeah. We'll be like, oh, that's hard. And then you'll write that down. And it'll be like, all right, what's the next bar?
Starting point is 01:15:08 And it'll be like, da-da-da-da. And it'll be like, oh, yeah. And then everybody would be like, okay, we like that. Is there a better way to word that? And it'll be like, no, I think that's the one. Then we'll write that down. And then that's how we'll write the song. I think we got to pursue this.
Starting point is 01:15:22 At least it's a good learning lesson too. I'm down to do it. And we'll just film it and we'll put it out. 100%. I know, but then it fucking worst case scenario goes bad. We got to get back in there. Bro, you keep talking about this. Like, I'm not a good producer.
Starting point is 01:15:36 No, I know. Bro. I'm not judging you. I'm judging us. It's all on the producer. Like, you guys can suck. So we can put it on you if it's... I'm going to make you guys sound great.
Starting point is 01:15:48 It's going to be lit. I'm sorry. I get nervous. I get nervous. And it comes up in two weeks. So someone might steal our dry streak idea. but I don't think anyone could topp but we'll do anyway, right?
Starting point is 01:15:56 They might start right now. Yeah. So we got two weeks to the internet. Yeah. All right, let's fucking get on it. We just got to make, we just got to make sure ours is heat, bro. We got to, like, really, really bring the heat, bro.
