Man, y'all here with T-Rail, man. I'm back, man. I'm here with my boy A. Z. Chike, man. One of the sickest youngs, I think, on the West Coast right now doing this thing. Like, bar for bar, you be doing it up. Like, videos going crazy. Songs going crazy. Like, but, you know, I just wanted to get you here by yourself.

You know what I'm saying? So you can talk about it, man, and see what that shit do. You feel me? I appreciate that. I'm glad to be in this, my, for real. Yes, sir. Because, you know, every interview I see you in or anything I see you, you know, you doing,

it's kind of like with Rucci a lot. You know what I'm saying? And shout out to Rucci, you know, you're doing your thing. But they don't kind of like get into death with you. Like, it was one where you was from the start, like giving them a little back history. But it's like, damn, I really want to know where my bro came from, you know what he was doing,

you know, from the start, you know, know where you grew up from you know give me you know give him a history lesson one time uh shit really uh south central but you know all the easty parts i wasn't really on the west side of la like that like but like uh really i started like 86 and fig like my kid years type shit like you know what I'm saying then from there I just moved everywhere my mom getting evicted like a motherfucker so we just traveled all around LA County for real like I got like six seven years in Compton five four years in Long Beach like you know what I'm saying so but I always uh always been to East High though went to Gompers middle school went to fucking uh what is it Fremont is it Fremont

there's two things because I grew up on 88th in Broadway so we close yeah we still be close and then I fucking um I went to Fremont too but go ahead and tell me about this Fremont shit no I was just trying to make sure that was the right school because I forgot it last time but I went there for a little bit But from there, I stayed on 70-fifth and fig for a minute, too. And after that, just bounced all over, for real, all over LA, like, just on some real east side shit, for real, for real. 110th and Avalon, too, you know what I'm saying? All over that, motherfucker. So, I mean, that's just really just on the back is on the geographic shit where a nigga being that, you know what I'm saying.

That's probably it. The only time I let out of state was, like, Virginia, and I got homesick as fuck. I was just, like, four, three months, bounced right out there, bitch. So moms weren't always with pops. Hell no. Hell too, no. Hell no. My pop's like, like, I know who dude is, but like, he is a strange dude.

Like, he don't know what type of lifestyle he wanted. He was like a, he went to the Army, a firefighter, but gang bang and part of a motorcycle club. So he was all. So when can I stop being in your life? Man, he was all over the place. Probably like 10 or something like. that like on some random probably like 10 year

after that nigga was just rocking in them good streets figuring it out one by one yeah because he was telling the story he was like man yeah my mom and this is the fuck my mama be doing too she'll do that shit to everybody like yeah my mom you know told my pops man

hey look this is what he doing now he rap go holl at him oh no yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah like he doing this year and they go tap in with him I'm like, I don't want to talk to you, niggas, like you weren't talking to me before. That's crazy. No, gosh, she did that.

Like, she hit him up on Facebook. There's like, it's like 2016, 2017. She hit him over Facebook. At this point, a nigga already, like, low-key doing this thing before I actually made my biggest song or shit. But ironically, the shit worked out funny. Like, I ain't gonna lie. I wouldn't even press for it.

But, like, he did text me, like, yeah, like, basically, like, I'm proud of you and I, basically just, you know what I mean, gang banged out out here. And, you know what I'm saying? making something of yourself, let's have lunch or something. And I was like, cool. But the way I was set up, I had a cricket wireless at the time.

So when you don't pay your bill, you lose your phone number. So he couldn't hit you. I paid my bill too late and they gave me a whole new phone number. So like it was just, it worked out weird, bro. Like, I don't know. After that I was like, 40 years. So it never was a time that you missed him or felt like he needed to be in your life? No, that's the, that's the, that's a.

fucked up part though i mean i wouldn't say fucked up but like it's like a blessing and the curse because i can't i don't have to deal with the the the feeling like absent because i ain't really know what it was really like to really be like oh yeah nigg-nigger niggas you like yeah no man man niggins niggins don't miss you dog like you know god like i see it for other people though like what they could do for you and as a man you know what i'm saying help you know what i'm saying and just you know what i mean like people who take them scars for you and then let you know and put you up on game and etc etc but like you know what I'm saying it is what it is like and the answer coming from the ghetto man I come in I think it's like you that didn't fall into like

the game bang trap you know what I'm saying and like I like to you know I like that you I like to highlight that shit like but you know it's hard as fuck like how did you how did you dodge that fucking bullet for when it was it was looking promising for a minute you know in middle school high school you joining clicks it's like subdued division clicks of hoods and shit like I was part of uh it was like I think it was like STR or something like that but it was like a they little subdivision click was in the swans but we had niggas from like backstreet crib from it and all it was crazy so it was shit like that set up niggas was outside though but really my uncle though to keep it a being like my uncle from

hoover so that's it that was the only nigga put fear in my heart he game i'm gonna beat your ass. That was it. He's moving. That's crying. Yeah, that kept me out of it for a long time. So I was like, I bet. Then once you first far down the line, it's like, fuck it.

You know what I'm saying? But I feel like with the rap shit, though, like, you can't beat it. Like, or unless you just own some pop shit or, but you're rapping some tough shit and all that, you're going to have to fall in line with somebody. Not even falling in line, but

even if you don't, they're going to put you with somebody anyway. Do you think rap and kept you away from that shit? A lot, too, other than your uncle. Hell, no. If anything, rapping, put me right back into it. Like, full-fledged. Like, coming from L.A., but, like I said, I feel like that's with anybody.

But, like, I'd rather just choose my homies than somebody else. You know what I'm saying? Putting that on me, and then now it's just all mixed, messy and shit, and I know who to hang with and not to hang with. Like, you know what I'm saying? You ain't never going to catch me on no humbug, weird shit.

Like, oh, you fuck with him. You fuck, you're crossing the wrong paths and shit like that. Like, you know what I'm saying? So I feel like it put me back in the way of anything. I felt the same motherfucker away when I was telling a story. I said, nigga,

this shit is putting me back in this shit. Especially with this shit too right here. You got motherfuckers popping up at the shit. And the niggins is trying to squire with niggas or what niggins said. I'm like, I'm going to get away from this shit. I want to get away from you niggas, bro. That shit crazy, bro.

Hell no. And too, like, you know my boy pun. Man, and me and pun go way back. Me and pun go way back. He was giving a story like, man, this nigga, pun. Put me in the studio. Man. And he used to let me rock, nigga.

And, you know, when I tried to rap and pun helped me out a lot. He gave me my first little song that was cracking. But that's the guy. You feel? I'm like, yeah, tell me some of those stories in that League of Star Studios, man. Oh, man. And, yeah, I was there when it was League of Stars before it was Legends All right. Yeah.

I was on soda I met pun through my boy A. Z. Sway. We was already fucking with him, Pund, Ben, reaching out to niggas. So I already had, like, a little history with him. So once, like, my shit took off and we just linked up. I think

I did a feature, or I did something, I was just coming to fuck with him. Like, you know what I'm saying? And he had the whole set up. I think he was setting me up with his producers, Jay Noreen him. Yeah, yeah. So I just came fuck around and then, like, when I got signed, That shit was like low-key scary

Like I ain't because I'm like Alright damn nigga gotta recoup the money or whatever But like I mean I'm good now I get it But like uh The way I got out of that I was just like I gotta work like That helped me so much so I was just going to punch shit like

I wouldn't at a certain point I wouldn't even like paying for a session Like I'll pay for a certain amount of hours And then me and The producer Jug would be in that bitch To like 12 noon next day But like he was not tripping I don't know, he just let a nigga flourish in there.

I ain't going to lie. Like, he'll come in there at 6 in the morning. He definitely a real one. Yeah, he comes to like 7 in the morning with his son about to take him to school. Like, I'm just, I'm just checking y'all good. Like, you know what I'm saying? Y'all straight. I'm like, yeah, he's like, y'all in here type shit, cool.

Studio clean. Ain't no funny shit going on. But he's definitely, we still rocking. So, yeah, pun definitely was lacing the nigga up. I ain't going to lie. Who did you get signed to first? I got signed to Atlantic Records, Atlantic in Asylum. Yeah, I got signed to Atlantic.

I was scared you trying to recoup like, like, nigga, damn, how I'm gonna do this? No, niggas come from shit. To me, at the time, it was a lot of money. But, like, on the back end part, I signed for a song, but, like, I keep my back catalog. So, like, my back catalog is already made what I'm assigned for on my back catalog.

So now it's everything, it was just scary because of money, because, you know, I come from Trump chain. So it's like, you throw six figures in me, it was like, oh, shit, like, you know what I'm saying? Like, you want this? back like niggas can't get that back on no man like what I didn't even know my music was capable of doing six

figure numbers like that like so you know what I'm saying but further down the line just learning along the way shit just start falling in place and you know what I'm saying so your biggest check you ever got was like an independent yeah independent artist yeah like on the on the back end yeah on my back catalog that's on God that's on God like I already signed this shit and then my back catalog just still going up Damn, what was that? What's the year, like, you can pinpoint

where you just look, are you on your shit on distro kid? And you looked at distro kid and you was like, you know, this shit is crazy, just working out. 2019. Dang. It gave me, like, at one, like, overall, it's, like, a six figure for sure on there,

but, like, it was, like, this one time he just gave me a fat wop, just, they were, like, 30. Like, just 30 at one time. I never, like, Like for myself, though, like, I got the label check and shit. That was cool. But, like, this was just all me.

It just slapped it on me. I remember that shit like yesterday. I just refreshed my shit and it was there. I'm like, oh, yeah. It's time. Yeah, that's how I was like, yeah, this shit crazy. And it's possible like a motherfucker. Damn.

So how did you connect Rorucci? Again, through my boy, A.G. Sway. We already was lacing the streets. He made a point of the night. We've been doing this shit a long time, being hot in L.A. or just having a name for ourselves. You feel me?

Really, through my boys, he sway. Like, when he dropped in 2015, was going crazy, or when he just first hit the scene, and I'm with him everywhere. So, you know what I'm saying? Just connecting the dots, he's already planted, and it further down the line, you know what I'm saying? Shit grew into what it was.

So, again, me and Rucci already had, like, some, like, small history paths with each other. It wasn't, like, nothing heavy, but, like, you know what I'm saying? But when he did light it up He had just sit to me And shit From there it was history

For real for real For real. Because you knick is like A real dynamic dual I ain't even gonna lie to you Like It's really crazy And we had a nigga

On this motherfucker named Dejan He had that little Report card shit Yeah I ain't gonna lie From that video I thought you didn't like me From that video

I ain't gonna lie Because I did say she shit I'm like I'm like damn We got a lot Lowkey got a lot of mutuals too I'm like Damn what the fuck

I do the buddy Like I'm trying to figure it out It wasn't like that I was like Because I'm just used to seeing Rucci and I wasn't used to seeing Your name

Like I wasn't you feeling me But I'm like When I after that interviewed my homie Like nigga that's the nigga That's the nigga that'd be on the song We'd be rapping in the warehouse And I'm like Oh

I was like I said Bullshit I'm like I don't know It's a miscommunication That's why I ask you to come here too I'm like

I appreciate that I got to get my boy I got to make that right For sure I had to make sure I bring that shit up But still, I'm like, I don't know if the nigga report car was right. You know what I'm saying? No, yeah.

Yeah, that nigga had definitely had the city straight. Shut off that boy, you got. Yeah, he was. He had niggas hot. Ooh, hot. I agree. You know, niggas can't rap, but they'd be mad when they hear it about that shit. You feel me?

Yeah, I mean, shit. Get on your shit. Me personally, I just felt like everybody looked too deep into what the artist did. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, the end of the day, like, that's what you signed up for? You're a public figure. Like, anybody can have anything. any opinion about you.

Like, that's just how I go. Now, how you take it or how serious it is to you is upon you. It's not a fact. So just keep it rocking. Man, that shit is so solidified, nigger with you and Rucci. Like, you, you definitely from Englewood. Like, so. Them my niggas over there for sure.

You definitely got to embrace that shit, though. You do you? I mean, you did dodge the bullet game banging when you was younger. Now, nigga, it's nothing we could do. Like, then my niggas, though, for sure. ain't nothing wrong about that like you know what I'm saying that was just that's just who I bumped into first like coming up and I just shared my loyalty with them dudes you know what I'm saying so it wasn't it wasn't even nothing too crazy I don't know maybe niggas is not used to niggas being loyal like you

know what I'm saying like that's it like I wasn't fun to go over there then go over here and like I understand I'm an artist and I don't have to like you know what I'm saying or I don't even know I say or just like pick aside or whatever but like I said if you don't do it somebody gonna do it for you so i'd rather be in control of what the fuck i got going on you know what i'm saying then motherfucker out here oh yeah he'd be with him he'd be with him or do do do do and now you got some whole other shit you know oh yeah chike ain't okay cool like you know they in cahoots okay cool that's fine with me you know what i'm saying ain't no misdirection you know what i'm saying anything go wrong anything go right i know where it's coming from or you know what i'm saying

it's just easier to direct that that's all than my niggas though and you're not gang banging and you doing your thing like so you're super level-headed you already know what's going on man like a yeah you definitely calculated from from what I know and what I seen but it's just like I want to know your point of view on like you know the beefs you had and all of this shit y'all had going on like a year ago like with a motherfucker actually dying like like what was your what was you like how was you thinking you know what I'm saying as far as that shit like this shit like this shit this went too motherfucking far uh but keep it real bro it's a lot of history on that shit i'm gonna keep it a vein so i didn't feel no way about it i didn't feel bad about it i didn't feel

good about it like i didn't feel no way about it i ain't none of my business now was it a fucked up situation with like the whole thing like it happened in at a show and you know what i mean supposed to be a secure place yeah that was fucked up like you know what i'm saying then i'm just not for the the the the rappers dying shit like you know what i'm saying like that shit weak like because at the end of the day niggas is rappers so you know what I'm saying just it can happen to anybody you know what I'm saying knock on wood whatever the case make me but yeah I don't know that that shit it held a lot though like it's it's a lot of history on that shit in the city so yeah I'm asking you that because the the ingle weird song was

made for you and all the whole little shit you know what I'm saying and you over there just hanging with them so it's kind of like you you tied in to this shit but you's like I feel like you to the type of nigga like, nah, I don't know if we should just go that far. Like, you know what I mean? Like, keep it being like, nigga, I was speaking up every time. Like, I'm going to rebuttal or

we're going to buff heads. We're going to buff head. Like I said, I'm not, I'm not sure if niggas is used to niggas being loyal. At this point, bro, I feel like being a real nigga is overrated. Like, that shit is not what it is, it sounds good to the world and when the motherfucker, yeah, I stood on

my, and I stood on my, but, You know what I'm saying? Like, bro, I ain't got a lot, bro. I was sticking my neck out for the gang. Like, you know what I'm saying? So, nah, bro. Like, I don't know. I guess it's just niggas was just mad at the nigga being loyal.

That was it though. That's how I even bumped heads with buddy. Like, he mad that I fuck with niggas that don't fuck with him. And from the start, it was, I'm not saying fuck you, but I fuck with them. So, nigga, if they say fuck you, then I'm gonna look the other way. I'm not fucking with you. And buddy couldn't respect that. And he tried to overpower some shit

and he just had the right one. That was it. You know what I'm saying? So even the Ingleware shit, like, that shit didn't come out of like, oh, he just gassed up or he just, it was off a boozy post. And you know what I'm saying?

Niggas clowning, trolling. And then he felt powered up and that's how that shit happened. You know what I'm saying? For real, for real. What's the lesson learned, though, like behind that shit when you just sitting and thinking, you know what I'm saying?

In the studio chilling, it's like, damn, what steps do we take? next so this shit can't keep happening i don't even know for real i mean at this point like me personally i feel like i did it up on that shit already so it's gonna take a lot for a nigger get a reply to me right now you know what i'm saying i i could say i alert that from it's just my skin is sticker if anything but like i don't know for real like i don't know for real like how could i how could i prevent from bumping heads with a nigger or just like rap be from general

I don't know because, like, not even on a funny shit, I'm always on the receiving end. Like, I don't know if niggas should be expecting the nigga to bow down or I'm not going to speak up or I'm going to act like I'm too cool, too famous to see what the nigga's saying. Like, come on, bro. Like, you feel me? Like, we're going to get around town. We all from the east side. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, we're really from L.A.

Like, that's just how it's going to go. But I don't know what to take from that shit, like moving on besides my skin being thicker and just knowing how to move. Like I said, it's going to take a lot more, like, for a nigger just to, because I'm always on a receiving end. Like I said, when that happened with Buddy, he just was mad that I fucked with somebody. I was fucking with them and wouldn't fuck with him. Like, you know what I'm saying? Motherfucker, feeling entitled because you've been doing it in L.A. And, okay, well, I'm the hottest nigger in L.A.

Or I got the biggest feature. You got to fuck with me. No, I don't. Like, you know what I'm saying? So, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. All I can say is for anybody, like, it's.

just keep your head on the swivel that's it like you know what I'm saying like it's going to happen though like bumping heads is going to happen you're going to get into it with somebody because I want to be the best that's it I'm not doing no arguing or nothing I got to be that nigger in the rap shit I got to be the hardest I could be so you're not you're not going to get through the city or any city like that and not bump heads with somebody you go you want to be the best you're going to have to bump heads with the best and doing all that shit how you're moving around in the city do you know be a little extra cautious like I don't know this shit is you know what absolutely we would like that already I was what what we would like that already the shows everything so

yeah and it can be extra cautious but I ain't know I ain't no dumbass nigger are I don't I don't praise on uh after the fact or you know niggas love smoking on packs and all this weird shit like you know what I'm saying we can leave that all that shit that's what I feel like riled up now yeah nigga you need you need you need you need extras and you got to watch how you step because you're talking crazy like you know what I'm saying I leave shit where it is or if it's if it's right there and now somebody says something we gonna get it done right there and there but outside of that shit we're not carrying that extra energy nothing you know what I'm

saying but I don't think nobody on that shit anyway see and another thing I wanted to talk about I wanted to highlight too that's why I like you of saying you talking about the energy and shit like that I like that your name is like Egyptian and African and you're trying to hold something. You're like, man, I'm trying to have something that's, you know what I'm saying? That's pure about a nigga.

That's it. That's it, bro. I like that shit. God, that's tight. Gotta be something, though. Like, got to be something, bro. Like, how did you come up with that shit? Like, you were just studying it

or what you just came across it or what? Yeah, honestly, shit. At the time, me and homies, the nigger just wake up. Everybody got their laptops. You know what I'm saying? It was like the early.

tumblers and all that so I don't know I just started doing my research on everything like we was trying to that was what it mainly was we was trying to conscious rap before all that like you know what I'm saying so that was the whole thing like we feel like us getting on the ratchet shit and this shit we dumbing it down but it ended up working so it's like all right you just got to imply your little shit here and near like you know what I'm saying where you always able to stand on something but we were trying to conscious rap at first so it was just really just like trying to tie everything in.

That's what it was all about. Like just off the arch was listening to the early J. Cole, early K dot, big crit, smoke dizzle, like, you know what I'm saying? Too, that early K dot was crazy. Come on, man. Super lethal. Like, come on, man. That early K dot was crazy.

If that shit didn't help change your mind on life, then you ain't listening right. That nigga need to give us some more music. He's playing. What? No, he's going to drop that shit. You see that PG Lang coming crazy. Niggas be watching that motherfucker PG-Pee. Like, niggas, you're going to drop this shit or not, nigga.

Baby Kim just got that Grammy, too. Dude, that's big for Baby Kim getting that, right? Man, that's stupid big. I ain't going to lie. That's stupid big for baby Kim doing that. And he's sick. I'm like, dance, nigga. I got a Grammy, man.

Everybody should be feeling it because it's like, bro, anything is possible. Man, I think they sleep on that shit because it's definitely possible. I was blown away. Like, happy, though. Not blown away like he couldn't get it, but blown away, like, nigga, you did that shit, though.

Like you feel me? How versatile you feel like you could get in your music? As much as possible, as much as possible. When it, when it feel right in the time, right, you feel me? That's it. Like, I believe in mastering one craft at a time. Like, you know what I'm saying? I don't want to dip and dab in everything and I'm actually great at this.

Get this down back. Like, you know what I'm saying? To where, nigga, it's just waking up, brushing your teeth, wash your ass, like, type shit. That easy to you. So, oh, me. Like, now I feel like I'm mad. mastering the craft of at least this LA rap enough to the point like I'm able just to naturally shift off into other shit like I want to do other shit like melodic shit or other because I want to just capitalize and fucking grow that sound like you know what I'm saying fuck with my voice or something like you know what I'm saying so

like the LA shit kind of keep you stagnant not really I feel like it keep you stagnant if you're not rapping though like if you really rap it it's gonna it's gonna it's gonna switch up on it on it on own like you just gonna feel that shit like me and the homies be on that we laugh at niggas who don't know how to rap like people praise that shit yeah because I mean because I feel like LA niggas do know how to rap

but it's the beats and the selection and then you know the tone we always go with it'd be the same shit I'd be like man that's why your ass going to stay region you know me definitely definitely I don't know man like it's definitely

that deluxe and I don't know, I guess like the affiliations and shit too, but niggas can get on some different shit easy. Like, you can get on some different shit. I think that the sound going to evolve more and more for show, for show. I'm watching it happen right now. Definitely with the younger niggas coming up right now too, for show. Man, you gave a funny-ass story, nigga.

I was like, this nigga funny, that nigger better show up. When you said, you're like, man, I'm a little late. I'm like, when the least cut coming. I don't show. I thought it was 4 o'clock. I'm telling my people. 4 p.m., 4 p.m., niggins, when you DM, I'm like, damn, I'm like, am I close?

I'm like, nigga, I ain't supposed to get this to 4. It was like 3.30, then I scrolled up, and we was for sure said 3 p.m. I was like, fuck it. I came here with my cameraman first. Then my people just came, on soul. Yeah, but he was like, nigga, I used to go to the bay or whatever the case may be, and you was like, I try to sell some lane and the nigger tried to take my lane.

On soul. That shit was funny. That's what the nigga jumped in that whip on the passenger side. Oh, God. I didn't even tell the homies. I didn't even tell the homie sway or nothing until later. He's seen later because I had to get my leg wrapped up. And he just was like, nigga, what the fuck?

Like, you know what I'm saying? But on God, that was on, nigga, that was on 83rd in Hoover. What? Oh, God. It was on 8030 in Hoover. I was serving some niggas from like Wilmington, some weird-ass idiot or some shit like that. But on me, set me up.

One dude came, act like he was buying something. He's like, all right, I'm going to come back or I'm going to send my boy back. Blah-da-da-da-da. Did that. Buddy tried to slide greasy on me with the eight of the walk. At the time, at the time, I was like, I need that. That's real. At the time, it was now, Aida Wark was probably like a band.

Back then, Ata Wock was like $3.50. So I was like, now that's Ria right there. I'm bouncing in the whip, man. He whipped out. I was like, damn. Nigger, you said you jumped in the window, niggins that shit had be on the floor. He tried, I ain't got, I did some bullshit, though,

some wet behind the ear shit. I was learning just, you know what I'm saying? But he tried to do some slick shit, like, yeah, good looking fam. And hit the gas. I said, just like that. Oh, God, nigga. Oh, God. I feel like the passenger, dick, it was, like, firing on me,

but my adrenaline up so much, I don't feel nothing. I'm looking for the link. All I know is that he had the lean, he put it by his feet in the driver's seat. So when I dive in, that's all up. We get almost to, like, the end of the block of the 8 third. He whipped out. I'm going to shoot you.

I'm going to shoot you. Like I was saying, though, nigga, I'm head first in. That's all he going to shoot is upper body. Yeah, it's a rap. And I'm not strapped up. But, naked, my uncle comes, drop the blameral to me later on after the fact, like, yeah, just a case, niggas feel like they could come.

back or whatever. Nah, niggins ain't coming back. Yeah, they're good. They ain't coming back in. They put to pull that shit up. Like, you know what I'm saying?

Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, yeah. A little, uh. My little trap on, man, for sure.

So what you got going for the music, man? What you got lit? Uh, right now, shit, man. Chike different out right now. Good mixtape. Uh, I got motherfucking Mike Sherm, doodoo's.

Callie. Haiti baby on that motherfucker That motherfucker doing this thing I wouldn't I ain't really drop the full lift Mix tapes is like 2019 And I noticed that I'm like Oh so you doing the quality over quantity thing Yeah

Oh God like I mean usually nigga I love to drop like in 2020 I dropped Two EPs but like you know You gotta do shit when it feel right So I don't know I'm not like too picky I do hell of songs Nick and drop all day But it got to make sense

It got to feel right But not saying I was expecting my shit to do bad or nothing, but they like the feedback Definitely crazy. Like I feel like after that 72 hours or like that 48 hour window after you drop, if you still getting that same energy, like the same love, a week, two weeks later, you got the job done. Like, you know what I'm saying? Because the first two days is always going to be extra love.

You drop. Like, you know what I'm saying? So you might get a little dramatic reaction, motherfuck. are just, you know, gassing you up. But, like, if you continuously, like, all right, cool. And then after that, it's just been nothing but good shit happening. So, like, you know what I'm saying? I'm definitely happy for that shit.

You don't never feel like, damn, if I'm putting music out, these motherfuckers might not fuck with it. Like, they were fucking with it when I had the, like, the buzz going. You think you'll lose that shit a little bit? Hell, no, that's crazy. One of the homies definitely brought that up to me one time. But I don't know. Hell no.

A nigga too hungry, bro. I ain't a lot. I'm not taking note for an answer. And then a nigga. Like, nigger, like, nigger worked so hard. It always work itself out. Like, if it's not my song, it's because of feature I did. And, like, it's always something just keeping me afloor or pushing me to the next level.

I promise you. Like, in 2020, I did the, uh, shout out my boy King most morning. We did choosing season. Like, that shit went the fuck up, like, random. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, that shit went up. But, like, it just be little shit like that. Like, you know what I'm saying?

Don't even be my songs. Like, it just, it'd be the work ethic. You know what I'm saying? Trusting your intuition And that shit definitely keep a nigga aflo I guess that's what niggas fuck up Like they just think it gotta be Just your shit like are just your project

It could be anything They can come up on a fashion deal That keeps you hotter Like even last year Uh Nick I did the The album of Rucci But besides that I only dropped

Like four solo songs But I'm still in the fucking Headlines and blogs and tabloids Because of the beef and all this It's just ironically how shit worked Like you know what I'm saying? Like, if you hungry enough, the universe is going to take care of you. You're going to have to roll with them punches, but it's going to get it done, I promise you.

So I just think it's just that. Is there anybody in the industry you want to fuck with or like rap where you're going to have one of your songs? For sure. I definitely got to get the Cardi B thing, easy call, just on crazy. Why Cardi B? Because she two turned, dog. She is sick. She too turned.
