Shot of New Amsterdam Vaca. Life ain't going your way and you're having to fuck. up day shout a new amsterdam vodka you know what i'm saying it's it's playoffs right now you know it's you got baseball going on you got all types of sports going on i mean it's great for pre-gaming you know it's distilled five times it's filtered three times for that clean crisp you got to get that at the end because if you're not getting that you're not drinking a good shit so you know you're drinking you know make sure when you're out of

Out and about at your local liquor store, you pick you up some New Amsterdam Vaca, the official Vaca of Barstool Sports and the presenting sponsor of a million dollars worth of a game. Shout out to the New Amsterdam Queen. My wife, too, to be at the crib with her girlfriends, making cocktails and all the type of things.

So shout out to Tudy, New Amsterdam Vaca. You want to ask them something? You want me to get to me. No, you know, I always, you know, because I made a couple beats in my life, too. There ain't nobody never heard them, but I made some beats off the table and jail and shit. I made some beats I ain't handed on the recording with,

but one thing I always been intrigued about producers because is it different from somebody that makes beat and is it a producer, a person that just directing the whole show. They just directing this shit. And you somebody's serious, and you got your business game down. Now, I see that you made a move, whereas, though, you know, you sold some of your publishing and all that stuff. How did that play out?

And why did you make that move? So we, I was like, one day I was talking to Jay Brown, and he was like, hey, you know, are you ever heard about a catalog sale? Tell him who Jay Brown is. Jay Brown is,

you know, Jay Brown. I don't know how to explain this. Everybody don't know. Jay Brown, what is Jay Brown at Rock Nation? Jay Brown is big. What is, what is,

yeah, he's like underholding. Yeah, he's the biggest over there. Yeah. I mean, one of the biggest over there. So I've been with Jay Brown for like my whole career.

Most part of my career, he'd been my manager for the first half of my career, Miko came and now they're partners and shit. But one day I was talking to Jay Brown, and he was like, you ever heard about a catalog sell? You know, Dream did it like three times. I'm like, what is that? He was like, man, you can sell half of your catalog

because my catalog, I didn't own all my catalog in the beginning of my career because I did all these publishing deals. And what my old lawyer didn't tell me is that they was going to own that half forever. The half that they had, I was never going to get it back. So I had signed those deals. I did like three publishing deals. deals and then I had

that lawsuit and all that shit so he was like what do you think about we selling the rest of your half of the stuff that you don't own as in the catalog sell that part of your catalog away get 10 times multiple sometimes 15 times

multiple or whatever you make in a year you know so if you make like a million a year 10 times multiple 10 or 15 million you make 2 million I wouldn't make a million I was making yeah you was making 5 million so you got about 40 I think it's a crazy shit We ain't counting your paper

But we understand what you're saying So we went through it Back and forth And I told Miko about it And we were all just game planning My whole thing Of my reasoning for doing it It was like

All right What am I going to do This is all your money At the end of the day But do you want to wait Over 15 years to You're going to get that money In increments

15 years Or do you want to bet on yourself Take the money Pay off all the shit you have You know Invested You know whatever else that you need to do to where you financially stable.

And then you can keep working. I'm only 30. I just turned 31 June 5th. So for me it was like, all right. I appreciate that. So for me, you know, I had already paid off my house. Like Jay Brown had me on that like, what, 2016? 2000, maybe, yeah, 2015 I paid off my house.

I bought a house, paid it off. And when I, so when I got this check, It was literally just money. So my whole thing was like, what are we going to game plan? What are we going to do with this money? Because I don't want to just have all this money in my account. Now I have all this money. And now I don't know what to do with it.

I'm just going crazy, spending it on everything. So we game plan and game planned. And what we did was we took that money. We bought ourselves out of every contract. We started off with publishing, you know, with my admin deals. I had an admin deal. Matter of fact, I had an admin deal with Rock Nation and Jay Brown. I don't know if you want me to say this, but Jay Brown,

let me buy myself out of that deal. Right. And then, I mean, I mean, yeah, let me buy myself out of that deal. And then we had like a ass, was it BMI or ass cap? One of those, bought myself out of that deal. And then we went back and got the same deals again, you know what I'm saying? A bigger, better rate and stuff and better rates and better stretching. So really, you hustled the game.

Unbelievable. That was an unbelievable hustle play you put down. Yeah. I mean, that was a whole team hustle. I can't really take all the credit because they round, like, he was, like, boom. And I was like, all right, for sure. But, you know, we know it's a team that played behind it, but, you know, you, you out in the front and in the lead dog so you know that was a hell of a play you and your team put down

yeah unbelievable play unbelievable now now i see you out here right where and uh and then you walk in here you got you got the you got this movie you drinking green yeah yeah you understand you're in shape i don't know if you got a fight on the way like you training or some shit like you ain't playing out how did that come about and like how to help be a part of your whole approach um man i've been trying to lose weight for years over and over and over I always get these little spurts where I'm just on my super health tip

when the pandemic hit I'm like I don't know if you a lot of people don't know this but I'm like a hypochondriac so like if I get a cut I'm like man it's cut like like shit might take me out you know what i'm saying like not like crazy but just bullshit like you know what i'm saying so when they when they was doing all this putting all the pandemic stuff all on the news i'm like oh shit i'm 270 275 i catch that shit i'm out you know what i'm saying so in the in the in the whole quarantine situation i just i stopped doing music and all i did was

I would have walked up that motherfucker I've been in those situations where it's like nothing comes of it but it's like this Rihanna you know this ain't boo-boo their rap yeah that's true you in the room but Rihanna bro

i'm i was in the same studio i'm in burbank i don't know if he did i'm in burbank in the studio Kanye's in fucking where is he at Santa Barbara you know how far that is it's like Two hours. It's six in the morning, bro. I'm already, I'm already, I didn't did my studio session for myself that night, all night, and my publisher Ron Perry at the time. He's like, yo, Kanye wants you to come to Santa Barbara. I'm like, Wayne, he's like now.

I'm like now. I tell that nigga, I'm trying to come later on today. I'm not trying to, I don't want to, bro. Wait, this Kanye. I'm up, I've been up all night. What Kanye is this? Was it the bag on this? Was it through the wire?

No, nigga, I'm not saying, because if it's him, you probably, I'll be later. But if it's the other one, I'm walking to Santa, whatever fuck it is. Is it Pint of Monaster, two hours away? No. This is Winnie with Kim Kardashian. Yeah. This is, that session was the same. Nick was like, bro.

No matter of fact, that wasn't Nick that did that. It was my old engineer James Royal. He was like, bro, we got to go. He was like, I'll drive you. I'm like, all right, for sure. Got in the car and he drove me out there. That's how sanctify came about. Let me just, let me just, let me just, let me just say this.

He almost missed two legends. Let me just say this. Let's make some noise. It's all God. It's all God. It's all God. It's all God. But let's make some noise for mustard for being a getting money, nigga. Because you got to be getting money if you even think about not going to see Rihanna and motherfucking Kanye.

You're getting money. Like, I don't even know how you was like, this nigga said, put you in a hole. No, no, no. I wasn't trying to put him on hold. I was like, can I come later? Yeah. I was dead tired. I was sleeping the motherfucker.

I was big, too. That's why I'm eating all night. So he's tired. How many wingstop pockets you had to be? I was tearing shit up. I probably was that, and I was probably drinking lean at that moment, too.

Like, so it was like, I was fucked up. Yeah, lean and winks. I wasn't even in my mind. Like, now I was like, all right, I'm sliding. But back then, I used to just be on some dumb shit. They got a phone call Kanye once you come through and shit. Yeah, fuck that shit. I'm stupid.

I got that act in me and them. I'm sipping. I got the act in the lemon peppers. Yeah. I'm tired. How important was that tag? How important was that shit? Man, I didn't even know what I was.

was doing when I you know when I when I when I start putting that shit on beats I was I was like I think YG said that that's YG said that on I think a song called I'm good a long time ago and I just that's when I used to just I used to go in his computer before I was good at making beats I used to go in that nigger computer and like find songs that he didn't like like say for instance like the I'm good song it's like a big song in LA I went in the computer and he already had that song to a whole other beat and I just made that beat around it I'm like uh look what I did and that's how we got I'm good and at the end of the bees like muzzled on the beat ho and I just took that shit the dry file of it I just started putting that shit on all the beats but I didn't know

what I was doing I was just doing it it wasn't like something I was like yeah it's gonna be I had no idea to the producers out there that's coming up how is it how important is the tag do you need it or don't you need it do it add value or like or do you you know that shit could be a gift and a curse so even for me it's like you know you only like my uncle used to always say my uncle's like my father figure my dad got to put at a young age for me so my uncle kind of stepped up and was like my father figure and that's how I started DJing and all that shit and he would always tell me even when I was just DJ before I was even thinking about producing you always tell me in the music industry and a

DJ world you fired the first day you hired I'm like the fuck does that even mean like yeah you fired the first day you hire so you only hot to you not you know you you only good is your last hit and we when you DJ parties you're like you only good is your last party so if you go to another party and you shit they're not going to want to book you again you know what I'm saying so I think what was that trying to say?

Talking about the tag I said it's a gift and the curse yeah so when you when you hot that tag you're on fire but when you not that tag can curse you can think I don't want to do that beat no more because that's who we'll be you know what I'm saying we don't got no tag that shit don't really matter yeah it's time yeah it's timeless so you got to kind of be

good you got to continue to so the tag helped you because you was ever to I think I'm just kind of good oh okay I like that and speaking of DJing you know they said uh you know because I know people to know people yeah we do and they told me

DJ Mustard they said back in the in the G in the day they said nigga was so good of a DJ that nigga used to DJ the rivals parties I said what you mean they said the enemies

they said they'd get a nigga a pass just because he is a good DJ He'd be from a, you was able to go to another turf He'd be from a whole different turf. I mean, come DJ to party. All right, hey up, get the fuck back home. No, no, it was, it got, I went to Dorsey High.

So Dorsey High is like, it's all bloods at Dorsey High. But I grew up over there. That's where I grew up. I never gangbane, but I grew up. My cousins, all the niggas gangbain. But Dorsey is, you know, I went to that school. My sister went to Dorsey. My whole family went to Dorsey.

So I'm going to Dorsey, and I, I don't know. I think I got so popular as a DJ. Crenshaw, which is, you know, the rival school. Like, nigger, Dorsey and Crenshaw games are probably the most dangerous games. You know, like, it's just crazy. Like, the high schools back when I was going to school, I don't know if they still do that, but they had to police escort those teams. Like, if Crenshaw was coming to Dorsey, they was police escorting the bus to the school.

And I think, like, one year I DJed on Crenshaw's side at their homecoming, but they was playing Dorsey. And my little cousin was DJing on Dorsey's side But Chris, I was like, we need him on our side We need, you know, I was just Damn So let me ask you a question When they first

When they first called you to book you Did you think it was a setup? Like, we need you to come. Nah, hell, no. Was you like, wait, hold on, this these things are trying to set me to fuck up? Nah, hell, hell, no. You're not from a blood neighborhood.

Yeah, nah, I wouldn't think like that. I was so neutral with all this shit. I got, I was DJing from fucking, Westchester to West L.A. to Fairfax, Palisades fucking everywhere on here. But did any of the Chris was ever like? Nah.

You know your blood, cuss? Nah, hell no. I was too neutral because you were a hell of a DJ cause. I was too, I was too neutral. I was too like, I was always just, like, I was DJing so many parties that them niggas was like when I was in the club, they was in the club.

But did you have separate sets? Like, no, hell not. No, no, no, no, no. What I'm saying is DJ sets, like you might have a song over here that you can't play when you want to, in a Crip neighborhood or, you know what I'm saying? Music kind of universal at that point. It wasn't like this music. It wasn't like, no, beat, brazy at Crenshaw.

I wasn't playing on fucking Gisiders at Dorset. But I wouldn't plan that at all. You know what I wouldn't do that. I was like fucking start a riot or some shit like that. So you were just playing. So you just went on the neutral. I was like safe everywhere. Okay, okay.

That's what I'm asking. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm like, okay. Okay, if he got a hot record that's from a young blood that's coming up and he disin the Crip, he playing in the blood neighborhood. They're going crazy. Then you got a hot record from a Crip that's this in a blood. You play it in a Crip neighborhood.

I'm like, wait, was you going to land those type of games? No, hell, no. That's fuck around, get y'all ass killed. You was playing the neutral game. Now, how about my paper? You've been relevant 10 years plus. Yeah. You know, it's 10 summers.

You got more than 10. Yeah. But you're going to change your name to 11 summers, 12 summers, and just keep changing that motherfucker, 15, 30. Nah, because that's not, you know, when people always see me, like, you've been 10 summers, it's like, that's not really what it means. It means that when we started the label,

it was about whatever artists, the goal is for whatever artists to have 10 summers in the game. If you can make it 10 summers in music, you should be okay to do something else outside of music or get enough money to use that money and do something else and live up. You don't have to do music for the whole team. You make it 10 years in music.

It should be good. It should be cool. Ten years. Ten years, a decade in this shit? It should be cool. How did you, what was the keys to you staying relevant for all that time? I don't think, that's the thing where everybody said that to me. I don't think I stayed relevant.

That's what's crazy. I know that sounds crazy y'all, but at one point when I first came in the game, I was scorching. I'm talking about I had 10 songs on a Hot 100, and that kind of like dwelled down for a long time. I stopped doing music when I was getting sued. Like the guy that I was doing music with, imagine this. When I started doing music, how I learned how to make beats was Ty, Ty Dullesan.

Gave me some sounds. Then I met this other guy. I don't want to say his name because I don't want to sue me again. But I met this other guy. He showed me this shit called reasons. When he showed me reasons, the niggas started making shit too. Which reasons? Reasons is another program. So, the Thai was on the NPC 2000.

So I had a 2000 that I didn't know how to use and I had reasons that I Ty didn't have time to just sit there with me with the MPC. So the guy ended up coming. He was younger to me. He was with my little guy brother or whatever. And he started showing me the ropes of reasons. So I started making beats, making beats, making beats.

And the nigger went to college. He went to college. And I think he texted me or email me. He's like, hey, bro, I want to send you some stuff. And we can, like, do this shit together. I'm all right, for sure. Niggas started sending melodies and shit. And we went through a long.

we had a lot of success but in that success um i think that my the fame shit my tag and shit kind of like fucked with him you know what i'm saying and then i fired my lawyer and she was his lawyer too i brought him to this lawyer and when i fired her she'd like damn near turned him against me you know what i'm saying and um so we did we did a lot of shit together and once i got big he kind of like like was like nigga you the one with all the like nigga that ain't my fault nigga I'm doing what I'm doing and

that kind of like dwindled out you know what I'm saying and I had that lawsuit and I just stopped making music because I'm like damn nigga like we did this together we was doing this together meet the fame shouldn't have changed you was taking care of financially the money you know and I would never I would never if you wrote a song I would never take that song and be like

this is mine and not give you you know what I'm saying so for me it kind of put me in a place where I'm like god damn like this shit tricky like The niggins turned fully against me, sued me. You know what I'm saying? And it was like just burnt out. And that's neither here nor there. And the reality of it is, guess what it was all about?

Money, thing. Attack. Yeah, attack. If it would have said, mustard and Johnny on a bait, it wouldn't matter. It wouldn't matter. When it's just saying mustard and Johnny, I'm Johnny. Yeah, but like we were saying, like,

that shit put a strain on me in music. So I used to go to the studio and, like, fucking sleep. I just go to the studio and lay on the couch. There's a point where you wasn't in the top point. This is the point where, like, Tena took a down for me, you know what I'm saying? And then I forgot what happened. I think my engineer, me and my engineer just one day I left the studio.

He was like, bro, I quit. I can't keep doing this. You're not the same. Instead of, like, picking me up, like, the nigger, like, kind of, like, shit on me. He's not the same. And you didn't, you're not making music no more. This shit ain't even inspiring. And he, like, really was on me, you know?

I'm like, but he quit. And I'm like, oh shit, my engineer just left. I'm like, what the fuck I'm going to do now? And in my mind, I'm just like, all right, my engineer left. The nigger used to send me melodies left. I always can make beats by myself, though. And I'm going to always figure some shit out. You know what I'm saying?

And when that shit happened, I felt like, obviously, I wasn't having all the top tens and all that shit. And I felt, I'm like, oh, right, my back against the wall. I don't know about everybody else, but I perform really well with my back against the wall. And I kind of needed that shit. to happen to me because when that shit happened to me I went and that's when I got needed me and from needing me I was just like oh all right

y'all niggas think this shit's sweet like y'all think what I'm doing is like it's y'all I think it's because of y'all that I'm and I just really went and start going crazy like I was just really like start focusing on my craft and just fucking like like taking no I'm not taking no for an answer

whatever and I just shit went crazy. It just turned up but you had that down moment in yeah yeah so it was like so that's why I'd be feeling like I still feel like the underdog Which is, you know, to me I still feel that way I still feel like people don't think This is like, I think it's like a joke
