He said, man, one thing about New Amsterdam, you got meat, shit, I'm ready head and go get something

Starting point is 00:03:58 get you a little cup. Sip. You could be doing sip on top of sips, on top of sips. So when you're out and about at your local liquor store, make sure you pick you up some new Amsterdam Vaca, the official Vaca Barstool Sports and a presenting sponsor of a million dollars worth of a game. Now, I got my man in the building.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Cookie Face. You know, Cookie Face. You know, that's Mama, you know, Miss Leslie. Mr. Leslie used to call him Cookie Face. I'm going to call him Cookie Face. That's my brother right there. You just seen his face when you said that shit. He's like, nigger, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:04:31 That's sir. When you was just a young man, your mama used to say, Cookie Face, get the hell out of them goddamn streets. Sitting a taste out of them streets, Cookie Face. Did you think that you would be in this position in life that you are now? I mean, even from when I first started with the music back in life, I was 13, You talk about when you was younging Before you was metro booming
Starting point is 00:05:00 When you was younging Oh what you're talking about that Oh see younger I was rapping then Yeah you was rapping yeah When you was rapping yeah when you was rapping yeah When I was like You switched over and started making beats
Starting point is 00:05:11 Then you became metro boomer right Yeah I became Metro Oh Metro Then niggas kept calling me Metro beats I ain't fuck with that So now I was like I need to put some kind of word On the end of it Okay
Starting point is 00:05:21 And at the time I was Doing a lot of music for OJ Juice Man And closely affiliated with him and that was just one of the things around his whole shit, he would always be like, I'm booming, I'm this, that boomer. He used to always just say that word, and I was like, fucking Metro Boomer. Just throw that shit on the end of it.
Starting point is 00:05:36 And, you know, it was better off that way. Believe that. So what made you, like, slow up on the rap and then go into more producing? Because I feel like, I feel like I always been a logical type, nigga, a logical type thinker. So even back then, I knew I was.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I had fucked with rapping, and I started a rap because I wanted to make my own beats. You know, beat shit like that costs money. You need money. I'm like, fuck, I ain't got no money for that. I'm going to make my own shit. And then, like, just getting into the whole, first, let me tell you how I even
Starting point is 00:06:10 had started the finesse to the whole producer thing. Like, since I was young, since Nelly and them came out, Murphy Lee St. Lunatics, I always want to be a rapper. I always saw that that way. You know, being a rapper back then or saying you want to be a rapper back then, it's not the same as today. No. You know, back then.
Starting point is 00:06:26 you say that your mama your grandmama auntie's like nigger like what is you talking about like go to school like you tripping right type shit so i had kind of finessed it that like ease it in and i would just tell them like i want to be a music producer because it just sounded like some business shit or yeah you know some shit like that so i used to always just be like i want to be a producer but it would just write my raps and shit like that on the low but um yeah i just got to start making my own beats and really just fell in love with that and just the process of that and And I was like, you know, if I put 100% of my time or just making beats versus trying to make beats
Starting point is 00:07:01 and try to do fucking covers in Photoshop and rap and do all this, you know, you're splitting up your time and your energy. So I just put it all on making beats from there and on. Who was some of your influences coming up? As a young nigger, you know, you coming up, who did you look and say, damn, they're doing it? You know, they gave you some.
Starting point is 00:07:24 some of the fire you needed to be like I got to step my shit up you would play some of your shit then you'll hear some of their shit you're like damn the fuck kind of machines they got over there man like who was those guys
Starting point is 00:07:39 that you looked up to inspiration wise I feel like I started off young I know I wanted to be in music so I was in what was that like 2000 so I was probably like kindergarten first grade and nearly had dropped country grammar So it started at home Them St. Lunatics
Starting point is 00:07:57 Like just seeing all that on TV And how it went worldwide And they just had the whole city on smash Like it was crazy And it just let me know It was possible So just being from the same place It let me know it's possible
Starting point is 00:08:07 And influence wise Like they influenced me And I feel like the advantage Or just being for somewhere Like St. Louis Like we in the middle So it's like It wasn't like no
Starting point is 00:08:18 Like if a nigga came up in New York Or Cali and like This is where he on He got Cali beats Like I grew up listening to all kind of shit I grew up I love East Coast music I love dipset I love hell of shit like that At the same time I had love West Coast music
Starting point is 00:08:33 I grew up Tupac was always one of my favorite All time um So much shit you know down south of course Cause you know St. Louis like right there kind of like It's like in the middle but it's kind of down there too So um we were just catching everything man like All the everything that would come out like In St. Louis like niggas was just fucking
Starting point is 00:08:53 with it because it's like besides nellie and them like you know what i'm saying that was it so i feel like that's why today a lot of my music and my shit is like more well-rounded because i just grew up with little wayne cash we fought with little wayne cash we fought with everything so even producer-wise i came up you know i fought with drayhart neptunes 3-6 mafia way up there DJ ball juicy jay yes you know some of my biggest influences i always make sure i'm always instrumental and letting people know that. Hypnitized minds. Yeah, boy, ACP.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Like, even back then, it was crazy. It was crazy because, you know, hip hop was just a certain way. Like, you had. What about beats by the pound? Beasts by the pound down there in New Orleans. Yeah. Hell yeah, with no limit. No limit.
Starting point is 00:09:35 No limit. Bees by the pound. Manny Fresh. You got Jazzy Faye. Jazzy, that's my nigga up with Jazzy Faye. Um, drummer boy, Zathoven. Yes. When I started to get older, it was turning to like drummer boy, Zathoven.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Southside. Wait, what's my man They used to do All the tip beats A lot of tip beats A lot of tip beats That was for sure High up there on a list too
Starting point is 00:10:00 It must get like It's just so many Like my brains Explan trying to think of everybody Like but You know I just spoke with so much shit And so many sounds
Starting point is 00:10:09 So I feel like All that played a role And shaping Me today in my sound Going to Atlanta Right What did that do to your sound like going over there and fucking with the vibe there
Starting point is 00:10:22 you know well through when I was younger around that age when I first started going to Atlanta I was like 15 that was 15 I actually had like my 16th birthday out there too so um I mean I feel like just I was I feel I was already heavily influenced by a lot of shit going on down there you know I fought with a lot of music you know Gucci main I always been with my favorite rappers from fifth grade like so oh five from back then like trap house black tea icy all that shit so from back then
Starting point is 00:10:55 Gucci I always been one of my favorite rappers um so many niggas tip geezie it was it was just so many niggins so um so going down there and and starting to fuck around I started uh don can had reached out you know through somebody who used to match me named k man had reached out and was like yo I'm trying to fuck with you so I started always coming down there they had put me with juice man um i was just working bro just moving around trying to make a name uh eventually juice that introduced me to Gucci and then from there it just like you know just kept going and so that's establishing those type relationships from 16 to now 28 i just started 28 last week so congratulations happy birthday man i appreciate that appreciate that but yeah bro it was a blessing
Starting point is 00:11:41 you know just to be around there and soak up all that game and you got to think even at this time when I'm down there like flocker coming out he pop and he just came out like all that type of shit so I'm watching from being down there so young until now I didn't see so many niggas and watched them closely and watched all that what they did right what they did wrong and their mistakes and you know I just apply that to how I move today so I feel like it influenced my sound but also like the way I move and you know handle myself and conduct business and shit like that now you don't work with a lot of motherfuckers yeah and we talk about
Starting point is 00:12:21 your homies right your friends who you get in there with you cook it up out of all your friends oh shit who is the hardest motherfucker to work with like you like I know we about to cook some shit up but it's gonna be some shit
Starting point is 00:12:41 that's gonna go down we go have a little Back and forth, there's always something. But we about, but at the end of the day, we make that fucking magic. You said the hardest to work with? Yeah. You heard what I said. I feel like you hard to work with. I kind of don't even want to fuck with.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Well, not hard, but you know what I'm saying is always a challenge. Because let me just be for real, if you're working with somebody and everything is always smooth, then shit probably ain't that great. because we got to challenge each other to be great right that's a good one I'm gonna say it's crazy because like the way me and Savage work like at the same time like it's so easy at the same time
Starting point is 00:13:32 but at the same time sometimes it's challenging and not challenging in a bad way it's just I feel like we challenge each other so much you know we made so much music together we can't just be just always the same shit right you know it'll be nice so I'd just be going through beats
Starting point is 00:13:47 and this nigga will sit and let me play 30 I promise you 30 or 40 beats shit like that yeah that's what I'm talking with that type of shit yeah he's one of them
Starting point is 00:13:54 niggas yeah I'm sitting there you thinking nika one of these is slapping nigga and I just come through it the one that I just made there's more than I'd be like
Starting point is 00:14:02 oh boy I know this is it I know this nigga he's like all right I'm like I'm like okay you already had you already had what he was going
Starting point is 00:14:10 say on that shit man I'm already seeing the video, nigger, like, I'd be thinking that far ahead. But, you know, and I do the same in return, like, you know, even like, as rapping, like, maybe try this flow or do this, or,
Starting point is 00:14:24 you know, maybe say that slow, or, you know, shit like that. Like, we really got that kind of chemistry, and we both respect what each other do, and they're on writing, on craft, or when nobody's ever offended by anything. No ego, like, you know. Absolutely. You know, you can't put no kind of ego in and create music.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Absolutely. I feel like that's B.S. I feel like him it's always easy for us as a whole but at the same time he challenged you he challenged you which I need that though right you know what I'm saying so that's a blessing right so at the end of the day you'd be like
Starting point is 00:14:54 oh I can fucking go in here hope I don't gotta fucking 50 fucking beats before he pick what and then it'd be fucking me up I hate what I hate what people be on their phone while I'm playing music like whether it's a beat or even a song or anything like I take a lot of fence
Starting point is 00:15:10 you just want to just tap on them like Like, hello. I got hit records. Right, like when I noticed the one. Stop treating me like I'm fucking Delaware, Donnie. And he's the type of nigger where y'all was just squinting in his phone. He's just like, and I'm like, nigga, I'm playing beats right now. Like, what the hell is you?
Starting point is 00:15:28 What if you were just rapping? And I'm sitting out here just looking at my phone. They're not listening to what you say. You said there like, stop treating me like College Park, Georgie. Like, I got hits out here. I didn't just start fucking making beats yesterday. wake up savage he's sitting here but it's crazy
Starting point is 00:15:45 because he'll be like that I think he's not too then then when he heard the way he fuck with he just like I fuck with that yeah that's it pull that up you know what I'm saying then it's on so yeah yeah yeah now for those that don't know

Starting point is 00:19:04 especially if you got your business right. First thing. Yeah, first thing. Because, you know, a lot of people, they come in the game, they sell a publishing. Some of them sell a publishing and, you know, some of them get a couple dollars and they don't know that they're going to be as big as they are and shit get crazy. How did you, like, who gave you the game about the publishing, the business side of the game? Not just making the beat, but the business of beat making.
Starting point is 00:19:28 I see it all the time, but I don't know. When I was young and I always said I wanted to be in music, before I even knew what Masters was or your master's was. My mom was growing up, she always would be like, never say your master's, she always said that forever. Never even knew what that she was back then.
Starting point is 00:19:46 But I feel like it was a part of just staying down and having the faith and just believing, like, yes, it was hard, but it was still like I wasn't about to sell a piece of all I'm doing for some money right now. I figured out till then, you know what I'm saying? So I came in,
Starting point is 00:20:07 I was blessed enough to hold on to my publishing and yeah I'd be trying to preach the niggas now young niggas now like hold on to that shit it was different back in the day they used to do publishing deals back in the day and I feel like it made more sense because you might sign with a publishing deal with a company like Sony or Universal or some shit
Starting point is 00:20:28 and they'll be like okay we're going to take half that's 50% that's half of your publishing and on top of that but they was taking half of your publishing but they was actually contributing to your success in the publishing so it was kind of justified like
Starting point is 00:20:44 giving you placements like they might put you in the studio or Mariah Carey or some shit you know whatever to earn their money but now I feel like it's so different like there's no real like artist development and none of that going on everybody just vibing on the internet
Starting point is 00:21:01 and shit so like even back then it's like why am I going to sign a publishing deal with y'all when i'm making all these songs with future and i just call him like why am i going to give you half of what the fuck i'm doing and you really not doing shit you know what i'm saying so yeah all my young producers just watch out for that shit um i'm not really i don't really fuck with pub deals like that but um i feel like a good admin deal is cool breakdown an administrative deal see an admin deal is they're really like they take a small percentage like a real small like i'm talking about like eight percent
Starting point is 00:21:35 or some little shit and that's really just like they collect your money and send it to you like type of shit so it's not like a publishing deal
Starting point is 00:21:46 which really they're basically just doing that and they want half for all your money type shit so yeah and if you want you can still get an advance
Starting point is 00:21:54 on that based on like what you done or what you got in the pipeline like I remember when I was younger and back when I signed an admin deal I had signed one like for a real low percentage I had waited to sign it
Starting point is 00:22:05 one like till i had the hell of shit and it's like they gave me a bunch of money but it's for a little percentage because i already had so much so it's like they really just want to be in business with you type of shit but um because ain't over the long run they're gonna make all theirs bad and some you know what i'm saying so i'm not gonna say all publishing deals are bad you know it just depends on the terms of them some of them give you a kickstart some i'm gonna give you a kickstart for real like for show like i got um like it's producers i fuck with now that i'm fucking with that like because see my mind for the whole booming outy shit and everything like I want to take a bunch of producers and had them all turned up like on some
Starting point is 00:22:42 artist level shit like how people see me you know what I'm saying like a bunch of metros type shit you know what I'm saying so I always admire growing up like seeing what Ross did with MMG back then like with the whole meek shit and Wile and remember they had that period where they was all just like you know what I was a bunch of them style he was on there was a bunch of them. It was deep shit. Yeah, and it was just like, to my gunplay.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Because, you know, traditionally in rap and hip hop it's always like artists side to artists. You got that artist and these are kind of like the minions type shit. You know what I'm saying? So I just respected that.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Like, it just made him look like even more a boss. So I always admired that and kept that in the back of my head. So that's really what I want to do with this. And even with my shit, it's different to sign it to like a major. Like, I'm not trying to take your beats
Starting point is 00:23:26 and put my name on them and do this. And there's nothing wrong with that. Some people do that. that's your business but like you know what I'm saying it's about you getting your just due and I'm actually out here working and like getting you on all of these things to where it's like I'm not just getting something for nothing right type of thing you know what I'm saying right and I'm the type of nigger on the business end and people always tell me I'd be tripping it's like the business end uh the whole music shit I don't never press too hard about money I know shit like
Starting point is 00:23:54 that you know what I'm saying so I always try to keep everything in everybody else favor or if anybody else ever feels away or say, you know what, I don't want to do this anymore or move on. Like, I just be like, yo, that's cool. You know what I'm saying? It's all good, you know? I never wanted to be one of them niggas.
Starting point is 00:24:10 It's like, nah, nigga, you're on paperwork, you're in this contract, you know what I'm saying? Right. Let me ask you a question, personally. Answered it that don't. What's the biggest publishing check you ever got? At one time. You know the IRS to be watching this shit.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Seven figures. I know you pay your taxes. No, for so, definitely. Overpay them. Seven figures, eight figures. Give me a number. Seven, man. Damn.
Starting point is 00:24:44 All right. Let me ask you a question. Top three most talented artists you ever been in the studio with. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. What's your, this million dollars worth a game? We asked the real one. We want to know who the top
Starting point is 00:25:00 three artists that you was in the studio with and you knew these motherfuckers is next level talented you only got three don't try to sprinkle four in there three and I'm trying to sprinkle like seven six oh he was three
Starting point is 00:25:15 I need a one or two and a three man so many this is not in no order or no I forgot you or no I'm just going on top of my head I'm going to say salons for sure damn I ain't never Wait, wait, wait. Beyonce's sister.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Right. I never think you was going to say Salange. Because I see it, I'm not going to say surprise me, like I didn't expect, but she really had like... No, nigga, you surprised me with that motherfucker's. I'm just saying, I'm not saying, like, I'm not saying she ain't talented because I don't listen to Salon. Music, shout out to Salon's, you know, no disrespect to her, but you can't picture me I'm riding around. Oh, yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:25:51 But, yeah. She was out of all of the motherfuckers you've been in the studio with. I'm not saying she's just number one, but she's one of the top ones that always be in my memory because of that. Shout out to Solange didn't. I got to go, I got to check her the fuck out. Maybe it's because I didn't work with her.
Starting point is 00:26:06 I don't really bump, you know, the women like that. Yeah, he ride around all the single ladies. He'll be bumping the shit out there. You're lying, but go ahead. But even with Salonja, it was like, I feel like I said her first because I ain't know it like that, so it's more a surprise. Like, she's a true artist and producer.
Starting point is 00:26:26 Like, sometimes you're getting in with, people and they'll be a big star whatever and sometimes they just they might be confused and not sure and not really know what they want or where they're trying to go but i just respect just how her it as an artist like she has a clear vision of what she's trying to do what she's trying to convey and how she's trying to get that shit across and it was just clear and it was just like a chemistry and like a you know i just respect the whole you know her whole artistry behind that it was another one um what's the question again it was like Oh, what was the question again?
Starting point is 00:27:00 So what did you say most impressed? I'm just trying to get the specific. I said, who was the most talented? Talented, okay, that was the word. Top three artists that you got in the studio with, and they was the most talented. And your first answer was Solange. Your second answer? Hmm.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Why y'all doing this, bro? I'm just sure. You been in there with some talent. with the motherfucker That shit hard for him That shit hard It's not that hard Man you've been in there
Starting point is 00:27:31 With all of them All of them is talented Let's just say that All of them are talented I want to put it like I'm saying this person No you just want to say No man
Starting point is 00:27:41 Oh man Oh man You know Art is sensitive about that shit But is they Somebody gonna be calling him Damn you You ain't say me
Starting point is 00:27:47 That's crazy I'm gonna get a call For this shit come out Get a call today Damn this shit man Man man So you can't answer that question I can't
Starting point is 00:27:53 I'm gonna say Uh I'm definitely going to put Future in that for sure Okay future And one more It's not that serious Bro
Starting point is 00:28:02 It's really not that serious You got Salang's future Hmm The weekend Damn Because I didn't even mention them earlier They didn't They're missing
Starting point is 00:28:17 Yeah So I'm gonna say him Fucking kill him All right now This is a very important Question Because you got a lot of dudes out there
Starting point is 00:28:24 that say they producers and what is it different between a beat maker and a producer man I'm glad you asked that because I feel like today it's a common like misconception of that shit um a beat maker is somebody who strictly makes beats so you might be in the room you're making beats all day and like that's strictly what you're doing you're making beats like you're not really dealing with no sessions or no vocals or really no artist directly uh you know none of that type of shit like you're making beats and either sending them off or giving them to somebody and they do make the song happen now a producer which some producers actually make beats and some don't a producer is somebody who sees the song out from the
Starting point is 00:29:13 beginning to the end to make sure it's the best thing that it could be that's the true definition of a producer so whether it's coming in with the artists um getting them fired up like motivating them and putting the right beat on then they got the right beat on then it's like you might help with what kind of direction are we going in or um just like a coach kind of like all the way through you know what i'm saying so it's like that type of thing and then even after the artist and recorded their vocals uh you might go through and be like okay these four eight bars maybe we could have did this better or do this over it was riding until this point just do that shit over um little shit like that or you might go back in
Starting point is 00:29:54 and put an orchestra on the shit or get somebody to play guitar on it or just all kinds of shit get the song mix, master everything, just see it all the way to the end just to make sure it's the best it could be. Yep. Now
Starting point is 00:30:09 when you're talking about going into producing making these beats, whatever you're doing, you digging in the crates heavy? Man, the crates to the left of you. You digging in there heavy. You do got crates over there.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Heavy, heavy. But see, on the back end, don't that sting? When you sampling shit up? It do, but I feel like with music, I love the art, so I've never been motivated by the money aspect of it. So, like, the sampling or having somebody else play some piano or some shit on it, like, I don't really care about that. I just want this shit to be.
Starting point is 00:30:51 as hot as it could possibly be and have my name attached to it. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? I feel like me doing music and being a producer, I look at it like God bless me with my ear and this gift to not just use it for myself
Starting point is 00:31:07 and my own personal game, but to like be a servant. I feel like I'm a servant to the people. Like it's a service. You know what I'm saying? To bring people this music that, you know, might change your day or make you feel better or do this or that. So I really always put the music first. before me. I never try to
Starting point is 00:31:23 involve me or try to put me ahead or be selfish to the music. I'd be calling that like being selfish to the music. Like you can't never be selfish.
