Yeah.
Like, this shit was just too, like, it was too authentic, man.
It was so authentic and real.
Or I was like, you know, it was just,
you can't be yourself at a lot of spots.
Like, then, you know, from me where I'm from South.
I'm from Arkansas.
So it's like, when you think of California,
you think that shit,
I know people are different.
You know what I'm saying?
I come in this,
and I forgot to say here,
too out with these,
people can talk shit on the internet.
I usually get bored,
go to sleep or something like,
y'all really cool.
They don't know.
You was really up like,
digging out of the world.
I was,
I fuck with it.
I was fucking with it.
I was fucking with it for sure, man.
But for these,
if these things don't know,
I always start off,
you know what I'm saying,
like if y'all motherfuckers don't know,
like, you know,
let's start from the beginning.
You feel of me?
Like, you'll come up,
you know what you're from?
You know what you're doing?
I'm saying.
Man, I'm from Arkansas game.
Like, small little country town.
Like, my hometown itself, like, it's like population like 10, 11,000.
Everybody knows everybody.
The whole time.
Everybody know everybody.
Did the little nigga who just got elected to mayor, is he from Arkansas?
He's from Arkansas.
Yeah.
He's like, that's like probably like a 45 minute from where I'm from.
That's a small town, too.
A nigga had 200 niggins vote for.
He made it.
You know it's a little small.
I'm telling you.
You feel me?
18 years old.
He's a mayor.
Man, I know like, I know like his peeping and shit, like family and she got brothers.
They're being raping and this shit.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Fuck me on.
I ain't like that fuck me up.
I got a lot.
18?
18.
I used to think you have to be like a certain age to even, you know what I and shit.
To even get in that motherfucker.
Come on, man.
He's the first to do it.
Brud.
That shit's been all.
I see they don't know Joe.
I think I did see no drama.
The post that, yeah.
I seen it job like, like, nigger.
What? That's crazy, bro.
Young nigger.
Young nigger.
Yeah, fun of getting in there.
What you think about that?
He's got the key to the city.
He got the key to the motherfucking city.
That thing got the key to the city, you know what?
He's in that motherfucker.
I ain't never, like, he's expecting no shit like that.
Never in my life.
Like, my hometown, we just got like a black mayor, too.
Like, he's like a, you know what I'm saying?
Like a regular dude, like, you know what I'm saying?
A lot of people they want him to know.
You know what I'm saying?
Because, like, they used to letting the white people run it.
shit, but, like, it's, I feel like,
there's no need for, like,
white people running a little
small black town.
You know what? Well, this shit needs to be ran by us.
I mean, but when I
think of Arkansas, I ain't going to lie to you.
I'm like, that shit sound racist.
This is a motherfucker.
I mean,
I ain't going to say it's not.
Because, you know, that shit still, like,
you know what I'm saying? But, like,
I know, like, a lot of people, like, when you say
Arkansas, they automatically think real,
here.
He'll be like, races.
Dimmigies coming to get the fuck away from us.
I'm telling you, but Arkansas ain't like that.
That shit, like, it'll probably, like, it ain't nothing like
Cal either, but like Arkansas like, you know,
just a little country.
Just, you know, it's a little smaller than everything, but shit,
you're going to always, like, especially like my hometown, like,
you're going to see more black people.
Like, when I was in high school, you might see like 10 white people
in the whole school.
Damn.
Now, they got, like, private schools and shit with more of white, you know what I'm saying, Caucasian go-to and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
But, like, just in a regular public school, probably going to see, like, 10 white people.
That's crazy.
Because it's the other way around out here, nigga.
You feel it?
Like, it's the other way around out here.
But it's more Hispanics in the ghetto.
It's Hispanics and shit like that.
But, like, I got kicked out, and then I went to, like, Crenshaw.
And Crenshaw was, like, predominantly.
commonly black.
When I got there,
that shit was like a black college,
nigga, I'm like,
it was like, it sounds dangerous,
and niggas, like,
you're like the Grinchotin with the whole little shit,
I'm like,
it was different when I got in there,
though, like,
nigger, teachers, the dean's,
the principal, the nurse.
I'm like, bitch,
the soccer coach was black.
Like me, like, Chris,
when y'all say Chris Sean,
I just see that shit like on movies and shit,
bro, like, that's the only play where I'm from.
We don't see that shit on movies and shit,
boys in the hood and shit.
You did.
That shit TV does.
Like,
when niggas ain't never thought
about we'll be in no California?
Not from Arkansas.
Like, how did you,
like,
how did you,
like,
watching L.A. movies?
Like,
what did you used to think?
Like,
this shit is crazy as fuck.
This shit crazy as fuck.
Like,
you know,
when you were kids,
watching, like,
boys in the hood and shit,
me into society and shit.
Like,
you'd be like,
damn,
like,
like, that shit raised.
These nigs is wild.
That shit, like,

Like, niggas, bro, like, niggas off this shit and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
Y'all niggas and shit.
Like, so niggas is trying to get to it, like, how the movie was.
I'm telling you, bro.
How the movie was.
Like, we, niggis used to watch movies and want to live.
Like, come like that.
Like, that's how I used to be.
So, when you got niggas on this shit, like, like, right now,
like, niggas are going to get one of them old mustards.
Mm-hmm.
And be like, you know what I mean?
Yeah, that's hard.
They go say, man, I came through, like, you know what I'm.
Yeah, bro.
Nika, me and those dogs, hell, what that?
Oh, God.
Just because of that shit, like, for real.
Like, it'd be like that.
That should be impacting that, like, for real, though, like, black communities and
shit, for real.
Did you, in school, did you always want to rap and shit when you was younger?
Nah.
I actually, like, when I, like a young thing and shit, I always knew how to rap and shit.
I used to have partners that rap and shit, but I never rap.
Yeah.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Like, I just, like, used to be.
be around this shit.
They're like, I used to have a partner.
I got a partner.
Like, he rarely, he's like my big brother, you know what I'm saying?
He like one of the niggas, like, when I was a young nigga, he was like, you know,
how I don't local family, they were in a small country time.
Nobody else saw these, these niggas just like hood fine, these niggas.
They don't niggas.
So I grew up under that niggas, so like, we used to be in the hood and shit, like, freestyle
and this shit.
Like, so like, once he, I just used to like jump in the freestyle, a lot of shit.
So my people were like, bro, you need the rap.
Like, but I went on that shit.
Like, I went on this shit.
And then that shit, like, I didn't start going through certain other shit, like, life shit, like, losing my grandma, losing my partner, a couple partners in the screen.
Different shit, start going through different shit.
And I just used to, like, I had got to a point in my life one time.
Like, I used to be, like, depressed this shit.
Yeah, because I feel like a lot of shit was my fault.
So I used to, like, I had started hanging, like, with a lot of my partners and shit.
I used to beat them myself.
Like for a long time, like, where I'm from?
You got Helden, you got, where's Heltenham?
I had started, like, hanging in, where's Helden?
I'm from Heldena.
But, like, Helene, West Helton, I always be in tour.
So it's like, I'm out here with one of my, with my, with my gal stay.
You know what I'm saying?
All my nigga hanging Helterner.
And I'm, like, going through, shit.
I'm like, I ain't, real.
It's a lot of shit going on.
So I'm staying away from niggas and shit, sir, niggas.
So, like, shit.
I was, like, I thought going to the studio and shit.
I just be, like, going through it.
Like, shh.
And then I go to the studio, I used to get the rapping some, like,
when I first started rapping, it was always some real shit.
I ain't never been on no, like, drill and slime killing.
It's always been that real shit, like, rap from their pain and scrubbing shit.
And then, like, shit, I used to feel better.
So I was like, that shit really turned through, like, therapy for a nigga, like,
shit, go through shit, go to the studio, reliever.
That shit, I ain't talking to nobody about their problem.
So it's like, shit, they're one way, like, just to keep me,
Keep me sane.

My grandma raised me.
Where was moms and puff?
Like shit.
Like my mama, like, I got one in the mama like,

When she gets her foods down,
she's going to come through put food in grandma career.
But we in Arkansas,
I'm going to stay across the bridge in Mississippi.
We ride by Mississippi with the casinos.
There's like 12 casinos over there.
So she always had a job over there.
We really, like, she bombed when she ain't held,
and she's gonna, like, she's catching a ride
with other people that probably, you know what I'm saying,
work over there, like, we ain't got it like this.
So she had a little apartment over there and shit.
So, like, weekends and shit, we probably,

She used to come through, like, you know what I'm saying?
But, like, she was taught, like, she was there,

Like,
and then shit.
No,
that's normal shit,
though.
That's normal.
Everybody's there with the grandma.
When I,
when I see niggas from Arkansas,
I ain't going to lie.
Like,
every time I see,
young nigga on the internet, he from Arkansas.
He got a lot of money.
Man, niggas...
He's got bread.
Like, niggas got arksaw to be hustling,
brother.
Niggas got brad.
Like, did that hustle come in you, too?
Like, man, I got to get out here.
I had to hustle.
Yeah.
Like, bro, like, man, listen, bro.
Like, me and my...
Me and my niggas, bro, when we were young
niggas, bro, like, we've won the hood.
Like, we started some shit that young niggas.
Like, we just branched off and everybody.
It was...
It was already shit already going on.
You had to...
the north side like i told you i'm gonna it was always helena versus west helen you know what
saying when i was a kid coming up it always held in the first of you from helena you know
what i'm saying we helena we really gonna fuck with nigger from west helena but you know you
always had them cool ass niggas from the other side sorry nick you you just
you can always fuck with you know what i said so it's just like that but like once me and like
me and my partners had got to an age where like we was in the streets she had changed like
Niggas, it started going from like,
Niggas from Helmner, going with Helmner now,
everybody clicking up, they beefing with us.
Like, we were some young niggas though.
We were wild, like, wild as fuck.
So it was like, shit, niggas was like,
niggins were like, we ain't started out hustling.
Like, me and my niggas down, like,
we used to do a lot of breaking in, breaking in, shit.
Like a niggas, the OGs and shit,
the niggas weren't coming through in the block,
like, showing us how to hustle, showing them.
We didn't know.
We just knew what, oh, shit.
We're going to go get it.
We still, we're pulling up to school, Crown Vicks.
Like, two or three, my nigga might have got cram vix.
You're pulling up in school and crows.
High school, little 22, 23s on them, box shivers and shit.
Like, high school, gold rings and shit, grills and shit.
We were, like, 10-11 grade, like, going crazy.
Country.
She's a real country.
For breaking the niggins' houses.
You think it's scary.
It's a little bit.
Like, we know.
We gambled a lot too, though.
Like, we was 15, 16, like, I'm talking about in, like, $100,000 dice houses,
like the big dice house where all the big gamblers it, like, oh, heads and shit, they fucked
with us, young nigga.
We used to go get up some money, goddamn, because we respect them, you know what I'm saying?
We weren't going to do nothing to them.
Like, but, like, they gave us a chance.
Like, we were young, we might used to come up on a $1,000 just to go to the dice house.
Two, three hundred dollars just to go to the dice house.
Like, we know.
They know, man.
You know, nigs ain't really got no money.
But, like, these OGs and shit in this bitch,
it's probably five or six of them.
All of them probably, like, hunt up.
They're some rich hood motherfucker.
So, like, they let a nigga like her coming up with two, three hundred and a challenger.
We might walk, you know, walking up out there,
be it with like three, four thousand dollars as young niggas.
You feel me?
So, like, we just do, like, a lot of gambling and shit.
Just like, shit, what's shit to do, though?
And, I mean, well, then, yeah, music.
Because I heard you say, but.
But then I heard you say, like, you started, like, researching the business.
Like, like, you start, like, taking classes and doing, like, different shit.
See, I'm a hustler, bro.
Like, I'm a hustler.
Like, I love the hustler, bro.
Like, that's why I always took care of me to hustle the grind.
And I was getting into the streets, getting that shit.
Like, but, like, so, like, when I first, like, I'm when I first decided, like,
I'm going to do these music shit.
I'm wondering them, like, if I spend my money,
Over here to hustle with, I gotta make my money back.
My money more than anything, I can't fuck my money up.
You know what I'm saying?
That's why I stopped gambling.
I had lost money what time.
I was sick, you know what I'm saying?
But once I made them, I'm through gambling.
I ain't gambled in years like that.
You know what I'm saying?
I do a little sports business and shit in that, but like dice-housing, I don't do it.
I lost $500.
I ain't gambled in $50.
You feel what I'm saying?
I was hurt.
My feelings was shattered
because I can't go get it back.
It's just like, it's gone.
So that's what my thing,
it was like when I first thought,
like spending money on studio time,
I was fucked up.
Yeah.
So I might be hustling.
I might be hustling with something
to make me $1,000.
Mm-hmm.
And somebody probably gave me this.
I got to pay them $7.50.
You feel me?
Somebody probably gave me this.
So I might make me probably $100,000,
a profit.
Now, let's say I'm going to take this.
My profit and buy I spend on studio time.
You feel?
So check this out.
So this is the type of shit I used to do.
Like, I go in the studio now, I cheer.
I'm all right.
I can be able to go in that chill and just fall in sleep probably.
You know what I'm saying?
But this is how this shit was.
I'd be like, before I go to the, I don't write no more or nothing.
Before I go back then, but there's $200.
You got to have your shit ready.
This shit got to be all.
Look, look, look, when I go in there, when I go in there,
The engineer will be trying to, they chill, hey.
Yeah, next song.
Hey, I can't do that.
Hey, I got $200 to fuck.
I like, hey, I got to get as many songs I can off this shit.
Yeah, let's do it.
I can't do no one song off this, 200.
Like, this is my last 20.
Yeah.
So I'm from going to go in this beat probably do like five, six songs.
And they're saying an hour and a half, two hours.
Like when they try me, you know, $70 five dollars, like, just.
So it's like, I just like, I just always be like, man,
if I put my money on this shit.
I got to get my money back.
So after I got serious with this shit,
her blow her music.
I used to always see this woman.
I had met her through my partners,
and I used to always, like,
my niggia, they used to rap.
I used to take the shit serious.
So when I was like, damn,
I met this one woman
with these niggas of her for years ago.
I need to find her.
I found her,
because I always knew she did, like,
she do, like, artists, music classes,
and she paid, like, $500.
She'll teach her how to properly register
that shit.
I found her.
You know what I'm saying?
I hit tap the end with her.
She remember who I was.
Set that shit up.
Boring me a ride to Memphis.
She's from Memphis.
And I got to pay somebody to take me to Memphis to take this class.
You know what I'm saying?
Because I don't got shit.
I don't got that shit.
I sat there about three, four hours.
She had a booklet.
She got on booklet to teach me this shit where I can go take it home and read it.
And then I just like, I was one of the only nigs in the city.
Like, I knew how to already like,
do all this shit from the sound
change to every platform
where I can get my money
off of I already knew that shit
I was already on top of all this shit
not just being on my
Apple music and shit
I already knew all to
set all this shit up
you feel of me
so it's like
that shit was like
that's just how I like
if I put my money in this shit
I ain't letting the waste
I got to make something back
like it took a long time
to make some
it took a long time
yeah
shit
come on right
where did
where did bank roll
come in at that point because
like bro, believe it not, me and bank
me and bank from the same hood.
Yeah. Like since like
single digit number we've been around each other
age, you know what? We've been around each other like all
our life. But like, so I'm
going to tell you how this shit was. So when you
was hustling, what was he doing?
Hustling. He was hustling, I don't know.
He wasn't on all right shit at all.
But this was what I said, I was one of them
niggas though, like I'm more
the brain. Like I say, I'm already taking
need classes.
I'm all right.
So I'm just, I'm the brine.
So, like,
bro used to pull up on me every day.
I see him every day.
He used to pull up on me every day.
But this is the catch, though.
Like, he, oh,
he loved the internet.
You feel me?
So, like, he gonna get,
we just regular little niggas,
bro.
He's gonna get fresh every day,
just like he do now.
He's gonna get fresh probably,
but we really, like,
we,
We win.
So he might get him a polo shirt.
Cag his polo,
but it's going to be back then.
This is 10-15, this shit fresh.
You feel me?
He knew how to have him like $500,000,
spread $1,000.
You know what I said?
So, like, bro, used to post pictures and shit.
Like, every time he posts a picture on Facebook,
like, this nigga used to get probably, like,
over a thousand likes.
He got over three, 400 comments,
bitches in the comments.
I love you.
Oh, my God.
So basically, you call it my nigger a pretty boy.
And he was a player.
Yeah, he was a player.
Yeah, he was a player.
I don't love him.
They love him.
So, boom, I used to, so, man, you did imagine this, though.
Imagine this, though.
Imagine me as an artist, I'm dropping music and shit.
I might drop a video.
These motherfuck gonna get five shares.
What?
That's disappointing.
So, boom, so get what, though.
Get what I knew too, though.
I need to get my nigga to rap.
You feel me?
Because, like, he already got fans.
Yeah.
Like, bro, you need the rap.
Like, man.
hell, I ain't on that shit.
So one day, I'm gonna tell you, I told the nigga one day,
bro, free my nigga pain, bro.
I told him one day he came in a way.
He had posted something on Facebook,
and he down went viral.
I was going crazy about him.
He came on my house.
I said, look, bro, okay, you don't got a rap,
so you don't want a rap?
I said, but I'm going to show you some.
I said, bro, we can order a thousand pencils
and put your face on him
and put him on the internet selling for a dollar apiece.
He was like,
I said, bro, no ho'a love you.
They're going to buy it.
I was just giving them a dump or letting them know.
Like, bro, whatever you do at this point, like, what else?
They want you.
They want to support you.
You know what I'm saying?
So he used to be like, he just, he used to be like, I'm like, bro, you rap.
I know how to set this shit up properly.
I'm going to make sure because he won them niggins him too.
Like, man, man, I ain't waste in my time on that shit.
I ain't making no money out.
Listen, bro, you rap.
I'm going to set the shit up properly.
I really be on some men's your shit down there.
Which nobody ain't really got no.
But he still.
He didn't want to never like that.
But I used to, pressure his ass to do that shit
because I used to tell them,
if you do it,
watch how fast it happening for you.
Then you got to think about it.
He turned around.
He started doing it,
fucking around with it,
and then just off a freestyle,
a peacock.
Like, what the fuck?
So, you know, like,
I used to like,
I've been telling you that.
I don't think you got to do it, do it.
Like, because I'm seeing,
you're on IG, nigga.
You're just, you're just freddy.
Tell us, you just freddy.
You love freddy.
But your initial idea,
going into this was like look
I'm gonna push you
I know if I get him
listen listen listen I'm gonna tell you I'm gonna come
everybody behind you this is
bro I'm telling you bro I got interviews
like before Fred and he got signed
before I didn't got signed
saying like if I can get Frida to rap
and how I want him to do I know that's gonna help me bro
yeah I got free to do
we got free to do that shit and just like
I always knew it would it's like I used
to dream of that shit I sink this shit
like that but I knew
I need him to do it for
for this shit to come how I need to come.
Like, that's how I was
and I knew that shit. I used to tell him, they were like,
huh, bro, my boy, what would be telling me?
Bro, you're hard at him, but I'm telling him.
I might tell him like, bro, it ain't even about that.
You know what I see the bigger picture.
Like, I know what this shit gonna do.
You don't see you the bigger picture.
If I get him to take this shit to see her,
this is my partner.
This is my real partner.
I know we're going to do mirrors it together.
And I know my shit good.
And I know if we do mirrors again,
somebody here to hear this shit,
it's going to work for it.
I always knew that.
It worked just like I always knew it would.
But did you expect him?
Okay, he's blowing, boom.
He got little baby.
He got everybody's shit.
He's peep calling.
But he also beefing with niggers.
I don't think you that type of nigger.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you ain't even, you know what I'm saying?
But he's like, I'm going fuck it.
I'm going to just go full-fledged.
Now my nigga is just going crazy.
Because like Freddy wanted them niggas, bro.
Like, he wanted them niggas.
Like, if somebody, if a motherfucker's safe.
something, piss him off.
It can be not true.
There's two men of motherfuckers laugh at it,
you know what I'm saying?
He agitated.
You know what I mean?
He got to say something.
He got to, you know what I'm saying?
I don't give a fuck.
You know, I'm going to, I don't got to, you know what I?
Like, don't give, like,
on Facebook shit.
I used to be on that type of, but like,
like, we used to always tell, brother,
like, as he big, like,
like, he, he ain't,
he didn't understand who he was for,
long time.
Like,
niggas, we tell him,
like, bro,
you bankroll,
Freddy,
but I'm here telling you,
he, like,
to him,
that shit won,
like,
that shit,
he felt like
that shit wanted nothing.
Like,
he,
he didn't,
he didn't realize,
like,
how big he was
and shit,
like,
you know what I'm saying?
You know,
sometimes,
niggas,
like,
just got to step
outside of theirself
and look,
like,
you know what I said?
I think,
like, the first time
he had went to jail,
I think,
like,
he realized they're,
like,
bro,
Like before he even went to jail
Like we used to have a conversation
Where he just used to be like
Bro fuck this real shit
Right like
I don't do this shit
Yeah
And I'm what I'm telling him like
You gotta do this shit
Right
Like you gotta do this shit right
Like we ain't like
You know what I'm this shit
Everything
Evolve around you
Whatever I do with hell going on
This shit
All this shit evolves around you
bro
Yeah he's just
I'll be on his head
But like he ain't like
He just really
one feeling this shit and he like one of them
like he just, niggas say something
to him, he just got to say something bad,
he's telling him like, bro, you ain't got to be arguing with him.
You ain't fuck that, he, nigga, who?
You feel like you, you know what I'm saying?
You should have been pressing the butt harder
because you should have been, like,
influencing to go like a different route.
I tried.
Like, we all tried, but like, like, like I said,
he, Frater, like, one of them nigga, like,
he all been like this since the kid, though,
like, can't nobody tell him shit.
Like, like, Frater,
I want, Fritty, like, if he feels like, you know what I'm saying?
He knows he knows you can't change his mind.
Like, you can tell him, like, bro, I sing this.
He's gonna tell ya, bro, my fuck, call me, it's how we this is happening.
Like, you know, he just, he wanted to know, like, you can't, like, you can't tell him or you can't, like, hey, you need to do this shit.
Boy, bro, this on here, bro, this the one, man, now there ain't it.
You know, he just, you can't, he got his opinion, he stick with it, he run with it, like, you know what I'm saying?
at him.
But like,
but like,
bro,
like,
bro,
bro,
good nigga,
bro,
like,
yeah,
shit just be like,
nakers be stuck.
Niggas be stuck in the trap.
Because,
like,
where were you at
when you got the news
that my boy,
you know what I'm saying,
and his father
get indicted
on federal charges?
Because when I'm looking at this shit,
because it's kind of,
I'm bringing like another,
you know,
incident up like with P&B rocking
and the little nigger
go robbing,
and buddy with his daddy.
Yeah.
But it's kind of like your father with you.
You know what I'm saying?
Like how does that, how did that make you feel like
when you got the news of that shit
and his man, father with him?
Right, bro, like, I mean, brother,
to keep it, I always want to hunting with you.
Bro, like, shit.
That shit wouldn't be surprised, man.
That shit, like, like, if you listen to Fred

His dad was, do what I'm saying?
Like, you know what I said?
they hustlers.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, shit.
Like, so, like, but, like, I mean, like,
I feel like, like, a lot of this shit,
like, you know what I'm saying?
I don't hear, like, a lot of that shit, like,
be bullshit, though.
You feel what I'm saying?
You know how, like, they try to pick niggas up.
They try to throw a lot of shit, you know what I'm saying?
But, like, because Freddy, like I said,
if you listen to him, he tells you,
I got rich all grader.
I ain't had to sell no white.
Like, they have to be talking about
dis and red shit with him.
Like, nah, not Fred.
You know what I'm like this my partner
So like I say he ain't gonna lie
Like you know what I'm saying like like he's saying
Like he's talking about I'm gonna buy a britt like
Like nah I don't do it like
He's gonna keep it real with you
So basically niggas is exaggerating
Like y'all really does don't even really know the news
Like they really is that joy

Like knowing them I was like like
Nah, like, him move like that, bro.
Like, you know, that shit just, you know.
But, like, that's the life, though.
That's the life they come from, though.
So it's like, shit, it'd be hard to lead this shit, right?
Do you think the rap, did you think the rap put this kind of the spotlight on the fence?
He'd be like, okay, let's go.
Let me see what this thing are doing.
Because Arkansas got 11,000 niggas.
There ain't no motherfucking way.
It really be the internet, believe it not.
But the internet do it to a lot of niggas, bro.

Boom.
So I remember, like, the first one of his,
I feel like, no care, I had jumped in the inbox,

So at the end,
I can't even.
talking, but like, yeah, like, I had jumped in the end balls and I was talking ridiculous

But, like, it wasn't even, it was just, I just felt like, like I say, man, like,

Because I really feel like, you don't want to be really.
This is what I, do what I really feel like.
I really, I really, I really, I really feel like I deserve 20% off his whole channel.
Man, I feel like that.
He did.
He did that.
He built that.
He built that.
Like, when he first thought this shit, like, I ain't like that.
Like, then these, every time you post them with it, like the people you know how they're eating this shit up.
They turn this shit up.
Like, like the first four-fights ed dolo, Freddy.
Yeah.
It turned them up, you feel it?
But, like, I can't knock him.
He had this marketing scratch.
It worked.
Oh, you know he coming with a clip for this.

Because Memphis got it going.
Yeah, Memphis, Memphis, the spot.
Memphis is the spot.
It's definitely the spot, bro.
Memphis is a spot.
Memphis has been like that, though.
My boy smacked just rusting this bitch, bro.
Like, before people started catching on like that, like, bro,
like, because where I'm from, like, bro,
we're, like, 45 minutes from Memphis, my own time.
All out shopping, we go to Memphis.
Like I said, my mom moved to Mississippi,
but that's 20 minutes from Memphis.
One point she was staying on Thursday street right in Memphis.
So it's like, I always had that Memphis,
you know what I always fuck with around in Memphis.
But, like, bro, like,
I grew up on Memphis music, bro.
Like, I ain't, like, I ain't grew up on a lot of shit that you only grew up on, I grew up on their Memphis shows.
What's a Memphis artist right now that's not out that we should be checking out?

Like, how is, like, the communication
as far as the feature-wise?
I mean, like, you're down, you can't.

Like, just let me know what I'm doing with.
You know what I'm saying?
But I don't want to niggas.

You want to be organic.
You feel me?
So it's like, you know, I meet these niggas.
We chop it.
They tell me, they don't.
They're, they fuck with me, you know what I'm saying?
But when they're trying to work, niggas, I ain't.
Niggas ain't, I know what I'm saying?
Let's talk about P, like, ear for music.
You know what I'm saying?
Because a lot of niggas just be signing motherfuckers and just don't be knowing what the fuck going on.
This niger is a real A&R out here.
This nigga different, bro.
Like, that nigger, like, because, like, he different, bro.
Like he tells me all the time, bro.
Like, I remember, like, when I first turned my first tape in,
like, it was straight.
He was like, nah, that ain't what I signed you for.
Because I was, I had made that shit on some real, like, rapper's shit,
like, hooks, these kids trying to catch you, hook him on here.
He's like, nah.
That ain't what I signed you for, like, you know what I'm saying?
He's like, bro, like, you don't fault there, raw shit.
He said, man, I'd be seeing you post these Trilla video.
You be talking about the shit your mom with them, your family and shit, get them folks.
That shit.
Like, P.1 of them niggas, he really liked that, like that raw, their raw, scrub up, pain, shit.
He, he preferred that real shit like that, you know what I'm saying?
So it's like, if you need to come across this ear, you know what I'm saying?
Like P1 of them niggas, like, I think I'm one of the only artists right now.
You know what I'm saying?
I ain't, I ain't never went viral.
Yeah.
I ain't got no virus on it.
I ain't got no shit.
I'm crazy.
You feel what I'm saying?
So it's like he don't really even be on that.
Like, just because of the motherfucker of virus and shit.
But how do you feel, though?
Because do you feel like your career is going away?
It should be going even though you signed to one of the biggest labels right now in hip-hop?
I mean, like, I just know, like, I'm one of them niggas though.
I just like, shit.
I know, like, shit, with my label capable, I know what they can do.
You know what I'm saying?
So I'm like, I be, I'm standing down.
I'm standing down, like, shit.
Like, because I know, like, Pete might wake up in college tomorrow.
Like, shit.
You next.
Let's do it.
You know what?
Like, shit.
You know what I'm here?
So, it's like, I'd be cool.
Like, I be on little tours on my little shit.
But, yeah, how's that, like, how does that conversation go?
Like, hey, my nigga, I'm going to, hey, come on from to put all the money behind you.
Let's go do it.
Because it's almost like, nigga, why we ain't doing it right now?
Like, put a little bit behind me.
And I'm also, like, you know, you got to, you still, though, like, as any art.
though, like, you still gotta have, like, in today's time.
Yeah.
Like Pete tell me right now, he's like, bro, he'd be telling me, like,
bro, the shit you'd be rapping about, like, you listen to my music.
I don't do a lot of kid jazz, TikTok music.
I don't do that.
I do, like, a lot of, so he'd be just like, when they catch on, they're going to catch on.
You're like, it take a little along with real shit like that.
You know what I'm saying?
When you talk with shit like that, you ain't heard doing all this, you know what I'm saying,
TikTok shit.
So, you know.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, you know, when they catch on, this way shit, because, like, you got, like, right now.
Because it ain't really no catchy TikTok song.
It's just like, if they love you, it be certain shit, though.
They go fuck with you, yeah.
They take it out the, like, all right.
It's like, so I just, like, I just, like, I just, honestly, I feel like, I don't feel like, I don't feel like, I don't want to be, like, I don't say I don't want to be because, like, if they should come, they're who they come to, you know what I'm here.
But, like, I don't think I'm like, you know what I'm trying to be, like, no old middle star.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
It's kind of almost like Lekeah, it's her name Lekeah, right?
It's like she, like, on that path, too.
It's like a steady growth thing because I felt like when she first came out, she first came out, she's like,
Nick, I'm fin a I'm this, eating, but it kind of like steady, you know what I'm saying?
Hold on.
Let me catch my humbleness real.
quick.
Well,
she wanted to,
if not the hardest,
she wanted the hardest,
she wanted the hardest motherfuckers.
That's what it comes back.
That's what I come back where I say.
It's like,
when you,
when you're talking that real shit like that,
she'll be speaking.
She's speaking that shit.
You feel me?
Yeah.
So that real shit just
take,
you know what I'm saying?
They just take a little long.
They come with these female
that come here talking,
Scrake,
puts and sucking dickmers.
You know what that?
That shit,
that's going on.
Yeah.
That's all.
That's the TikTok shit.
So you feel what I'm saying?
So it's just like, it's just the same as like if you're a nigga out here,
you're talking real pain, scrub and shit.
Like, niggas ain't, they probably even feeling right now.
You know what I'm saying?
But like, soon you drop some shit, let you diss something bad to say off
and the kid this nigga and that they were things.
I mean, no, you got your ride waves.
