No jumper.
Coolest podcasts in the world.
It's 423.
And I'm in here with the stink team.
Ganging them no lines with them.
Stinks in this.
We know the truth.
How are you guys feeling?
Trying to keep it together, you know.
My brother's birthday was just two days ago.
Long live the truth.
Oh, huh?
Yeah.
Wait, before we get into anything more serious, though, like you were just asking me,
oh, I had him.
You got a bunch of wax in front of you where you just tossed us in the
Blunt. Yeah, put that in a blunt. Give it a little extra little.
Rossin, not what?
Rosin. What's the difference? I don't know.
Big difference. But there's gas right here. See how light it is?
Yeah. You want the light. You don't want the dark?
I remember in the early dab era, everybody would be just run around with a big old can of wax
before they had it in the stores and shit. That got a sweet tarts logo on it. Yeah, this is.
That's crazy. I didn't really get into it like, until like, what, six, four months ago?
That's when I started going.
He got me on it.
Because it's just a way to make the blunt hit like 10 times harder, right?
No, when you're smoking, we over and over and over, you just be smoking just to smoke.
It's like, I'm not even getting high no more.
Right.
Because I smoke spliffs.
I kind of got off the woods a couple of years ago.
And now, at this point, I kind of realize that once in a while I'll take an edible or I'll take a dab.
And then I realize, like, oh, you're not really getting that high most of the time when you're smoking.
And then you do one of these things, and you get really fucking high.
You get the real high.
hallucinating ass like watching YouTube videos just like you know it's just a different level you know
no cap you got to keep it interesting I see got your empty P drip on man it's my boy Zach right
there shout out this is reversible I'm rocking it like this today I'm gonna turn it inside out
rocking another way tomorrow it looks dope appreciate it yeah you know I had the first Zach
interview back 2015 2016 probably got the first everybody interview but but Zach like I don't even
know if he did one since then like you see him on yeah you don't see his face
You've seen some profiles of the studio or the warehouse where he ships a sh** out of,
but I don't think he's really sat down with somebody for an hour since then.
Yeah, hell no.
He's incognito.
He's like in the way, but out the way at the same.
He's lucky.
I look up to him because to be able to have that kind of life where you make a bunch of money,
you sell a shipper product.
Everybody knows your brand, but then your face is not really recognizable like that.
You and me don't have that choice.
No, I hate being a rapper.
You got to be on social media.
You got to do music videos.
You've got to be on camera all the time.
You can be on stuff.
stage, it's dope to be rich and not really that famous.
I wish I could have took that route and just been a businessman first.
Now I got to be a businessman slash rapper.
It's like, it's good for the business, but if I would have did the business first,
I've been cool.
That's got to be part of the plan as a rapper is how you're going to create a brand or a
product that then once you're 45 years old and you don't feel like being on camera all the time,
you could still push it, you know?
Yeah, you can still push your brand off of your, um, off of your, um, off of your
I think the Stink team is that
Yeah we got a whole
The Stink team is like a brand itself
It's just like when you hear the Sting team
It just sound like a brand
Yeah, it's just all about
What's that about what you do?
What?
It's like even if you
It's like when you say the Stink Team
It's all what's that
I probably heard about that
We've seen a whole generation
The kids who grew up wanting to be part of that shit
Yeah
Some of them it didn't really work out so well
Some of them I did
No
You know how that'd be
Pick a side
That's why
You want money or are you on cloud
So okay last time we did an interview
I had a very noteworthy
Exchange for the dude
Who was managing you of some sort at the time
Angel
And it was viral
Everybody was talking about
I remember the TikTok
I think that was my first TikTok
That had a million views
Where is he at?
Is that not a situation anymore?
I don't know what he's doing
I know what I'm doing
Stink team doing
I don't know what he's doing.
So how do you even end up having him be managing you?
Because, I mean, you know, you have people.
Well, to me, the manager is anybody that can do answer a phone.
If I tell him to, like, you know, here I answer a phone or here's somebody about to hit you up about this verse.
So anybody can do that.
You know?
Because, like, no shots at him, but during that interview, it was weird because me and you had had words with each other before the interview.
but then we like kind of talked
got cool doing the interview
had a pretty cool vibe
like you're kind of giving me a little bit of a hard time
and I'm kind of fucking doing the interview but then he was
just gassing it up
and I got pissed as fucking people got
to see me get out of character
you look like you guys were going to fight I'm like damn they're
fin of take it there man they're used
to seeing me be a snarky
rude
sometimes but they're not really used to see him just really
like turn up on somebody and tell them to pipe down
and so that was kind of unique
I'm gonna take it there.
I'm like, damn, I'm trying to ignore you guys.
I'm like, oh, y'all going there.
Right.
So when did that situation end?
With the little dudes.
So when O.T.M left, he left with him?
Yeah.
Did he come into the situation with them?
No.
No.
Hell no.
Okay.
So, all right.
So how did that situation happen with them even getting down in the first place?
And why didn't it work out?
I mean, you know, business is business.
Like, you know, some people don't really know the business,
so they just say things out their mouth
and then change their minds later on in life, you know.
But me, I don't change my mind.
Once I got a certain thought or I'm about to say I'm going to do this,
that's what I'm going to do.
Right.
But, well, I guess they decided they didn't want to sign no more, I guess.
I don't know.
Right, that's what Doug was saying.
You see how I brought them on the platform.
I brought them with the,
Like I was pushing them as if they were stinting.
If they were to came off if I don't want to sign a stink team
in the first place, they wouldn't have got all them opportunities.
You know what I'm saying?
I would have treated them like how I'd treat everybody else.
Right.
It's almost exactly like what happened with Draco and Remble.
Yeah.
Kind of worse.
Because they played the part as if they was gang in them,
and then they said, oh, no.
Right.
We're going to go sign these...
deals on the low and go get paid.
But if y'all was signed,
then y'all was just supposed to give up the 20%.
But instead they gave it to the manager.
Right.
Yeah, and I don't know if I think that's a good idea on their part
because I'm going to be real, like,
them being part of the whole Stink Team thing,
I feel like that was pretty much crucial to people for them.
And I haven't looked to see what their views look like now or whatever,
but I definitely haven't really heard people talking about them
the same way that they were talking about them a lot
when you guys were all rolling around together.
have to push. I got the whole
the jump start.
Yeah, that's a danger
of trying to like take people's
careers from the ground up is that sometimes
you give them the sauce and like
it just doesn't
It's like taking somebody to the field for the first time they get their
first little money. Now they think like
they're on the same level.
But it's like, bro, you're going to have to get
weighing my money than that first check to catch up
to this type of shit. Right.
Yeah, it's a
weird situation because a lot
Like they start to get some kind of like knowledge of what's going on in the game.
And they start having people tell them, oh, don't sign to a rapper.
You know, sign to Atlantic, sign to Columbia or whatever, just signed to a label.
Don't try to have anybody else in between that.
Our deal was kind of more not like you're not just signing.
You're getting a, you're getting the sauce.
Like you learning the game.
Like when you sign to a label, they're not going to teach you the game.
They're not going to teach you how to collect.
Don't ask cap teach you how to recoup your money on sound exchange.
and get your money from content ID and all that type of that.
I'm not going to teach you that.
They're just going to sign you.
They're going to whip you,
and then you're going to find out stuff later on.
Then you're going to complain about it.
No, we teach people the same, you know, as we're learning.
We're still learning too.
But we teach you what we know as they go.
Right.
Damn.
So, okay, what was up with that video of them getting jumped
and their chains taken or whatever?
Oh, no, I don't think that was no video of that.
There was, like, surveillance camera footage.
Oh, no, they were just.
Him and Bulls has, they was just fighting them, some, some shit like that.
Oh, okay.
Nah, hell, no.
You weren't there for that?
No, hell, no.
Okay.
How, like, so you guys fell out bad with that angel dude, though, right?
Because I've seen a clip of him talking all kinds of shit.
Yeah, I feel like I didn't fall out with no, but I really just do me.
Right.
I never really pay attention to, like, the internet antics.
Okay.
Do you think that you're an easy person to work with, or you think that?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Keep the plug.
I don't be doing it.
I just be chilling.
See, I don't know that side of you
or how you are to work with,
but you are the brother of someone
who, as much as he's a legend,
definitely not the easiest person to work with.
Oh, yeah, he don't.
You got to remember, I was doing the talking for him.
He didn't really, he don't talk to him.
I don't care about this.
Like, I'm more on the business side of shit.
Like, I kind of, like, know what's going on.
Like, but not really know what's going on.
But I know.
enough to hold a business conversation about music.
Like without it being weird or nobody feeling like they're getting finessed.
Right.
That's good.
Yeah.
Because that was definitely, you know,
Daco was just,
like,
we started to see him networking more and socializing and being in the club
and all that type of shit more,
like later in his life.
But for sure,
like,
you know,
networking is a huge part of becoming a big rapper.
And he just did not give off.
He was just like the realest person.
Yeah, he didn't care about no features,
know who pop in
he didn't care about nothing that
right money
jewelry and just
whips and that's all you really care about
facts that's why when we seen like
the sweetie video it was just like
how did this happen yeah that was
a good one right you know he wasn't like sliding up in her
DMs like let's do a song and he was just so
regular just stare at the video she was just
chilling like you know
too impressed about
definitely
So, yeah, I mean, you were talking a little bit about keeping the truth alive and everything before,
but what, like, from your perspective, what's the main ways that you go about doing that?
Because I had a lot of people, like, you know, talking to Jay Diggs the other day about, you know,
keeping Mac Drey's legacy alive and like that.
And it's kind of like that with Draco, where it's like, if you just ignore it,
then there's nothing for people to hold on to.
They're still going to talk about them, but it's going to be more limited.
Whereas, like, you know, there's so much that you could do to kind of keep his...
out there. You see them doing a lot with Nipsey and shit, which is cool.
I try to just keep his name around, just keep talking about him, drop songs, every blue moon,
create videos and shit that people never seen and kind of upload them and shit like that.
And then, like, on the 18th, we're doing a party for his memorial.
And then just, like, invite certain people to his birthday parties and shit like that, like certain
and then I always put his face on merch.
Right.
So, a little shit like that.
Does it make sense to, like, have his own
merch just permanently available online
and the way they do with Nipsey?
We could do that, but the state will have to do that.
In the state, that's still going through
its little court situation.
So it's not as simple as it just being, like,
you working with it? I would rather it be the
the state running it.
So if all the money, that, if it's like a clothing line
from his name, actual name and benefits for him, I'd rather it just be like going straight to him.
Not like it's just some stink team merch.
Right.
For sure.
Okay.
So the other thing I want to, oh yeah, so there was an OTP's song that they put out and you got a taken down, right?
You know, business is business.
So what was your mentality on that?
Because I'm sure that meant a lot to them.
And y'all said y'all not stint team you all don't want to you know so business is business you know
damn so you feel like you're really inhabiting this heartless businessman role or you just feel like they're
fricking around by even doing that in the first place like they knew you would probably do that right they already knew they just want the test to see if like we already told you y'all just want to play internet games you know posted
complain after you know it's going to get
took down and cry.
Yeah.
Does that go for everybody out there who got an
unreleased Drago feature?
If you got a feature, then get it cleared.
Go through the procedures to get it clear.
You know what I mean?
Some of Draco songs, I don't let you drop
because they got it clear.
And they're going to get it clear by me.
You got to get it clear by their state.
Are there still like...
It's a decent amount of Drakeo songs.
So there's a lot of verses
that potentially, you know, if Drake said, like,
I want to put a Drake Overse on my next album,
you'd be able to say, like, all right, we got this one,
this one, and this one like that.
You're just kind of keeping on ice
in case something like that happens?
It's a couple opens.
The opens I don't touch.
I only songs I dropped was the songs I got,
and then he got features, but certain features,
I can't drop.
So they'd be wanting certain songs to drop,
but I'd be like, yeah, there's no sign.
Ozuma, that's Ozuna.
You know what I'm saying?
He got a wrong.
random playboy court
you got Torrey Lane's versus he got like certain people
it can get clear but certain people
it's like who the hell do I contact to get this clear
right but they'd be one in those
ones I was like damn I can't drop them
damn
is it true that you made OTM give the chains back
I think Adam crazy
I mean that's just word on the street
hey man I don't do nothing
man oh I don't do nothing
I wouldn't be surprised if you're wearing one of them right now.
Just secretly flexing on them.
Nah, I don't care about those little dudes.
No?
Come on, I'm in a different, like, watch the chain, like, small time.
So it's not real beef?
Like, if you see them as a weird?
I never said it was beef.
They just went to the internet and acted like it was like a,
whoa, fuck those dudes.
Right, damn, I'm the one gay.
You all the shit I basically got.
Right.
Can't say fuck me.
It's like being mad at your daddy, like, you know what I'm saying?
It don't work like that.
Right.
Damn.
So, like, if they were to sincerely apologize, you wouldn't be willing to just like squash it, go back to rapping together and shit?
They're too big-headed.
You think?
They don't think they did anything wrong.
So that's where it starts.
If you don't think you did that role, you feel like there's nothing to apologize about.
They think I should be apologized.
Do you think that your behavior was all peaches and cream the whole time?
Or did you get out of, in your feelings at a certain point?
If you know, you know, like, I don't even, I hardly care about shit.
So if I'm telling you about something, I mean, it's the reason, you know?
For sure.
Because Ralphie's just not going around just telling people about themselves.
I don't tell grown ass men about their self.
I've been to jail.
I don't like niggas telling me about myself.
What did you learn in jail that changed you?
How do you deal with people on the outside?
That.
Everybody's cappers.
Really?
Everybody got the Maserati on Fogis.
Everybody.
And niggas got jets on Fogiados and everybody millionaires.
And you see them on the streets and you be like, this niggas is a smoker.
Like, that's what I learned.
People are not who they say they are.
Like somebody can go to Jee.
and be the toughest dude,
got a squabble, know how to fight,
and now he's respected as this joint.
But on the streets, who the fuck is this, nigga?
But in jail, you got a little squabble on you,
you kind of not turning down phase,
you kind of a real nigga.
You could be King Tut.
Right.
On the streets, fresh out,
that's the nigga that'd be off the bag again.
He keep coming back and forth.
It's hard to hide it when you're broke.
On Instagram, especially the way shit
is now and especially the way that a lot of people
that we know feel the need to have
like constant new outfits and shit like that.
It's just easy to pick it out.
It's like, to me I feel like,
like, it's like it's easy
to be something on Instagram
whether than being that same
person on the streets, not even in the streets,
the real world.
Like, you can be this cool person on the internet,
but then you can walk in the real world.
And you're like, what?
is this, nigga, like, you don't get the same respect.
It's like, it's like kind of like trolls.
Like, just imagine them trolls.
You walk in the party.
And trolls just start, you go,
swoopty-whoop, yelling out with crazy.
That's how they is in the comment section.
You can't do that in the real world.
Probably every time you ever performed,
there was at least one person in the audience.
That's a troll.
Or got in your comments and said, like,
oh, you a bitch or whatever.
Like, those are your fans.
They might have just been having a bad day.
they know it's not going to catch up to them, so they just let you hear it.
I figured it out with that type of shit.
I'd be like, all right, let me go live with you so you can tell me about myself.
And then they go lie.
They'd be like, no, I was just playing around for you.
I'm a fan, man.
I just wanted to see if you was going to respond.
Right.
I'd be like, I'm done.
Like, every time I go live with somebody who's saying, fuck me, they're really fans.
Yeah, at a certain point, you got to just kind of let go of it and just be like people
are going to feel however they're going to feel about it.
No, you can't care about the internet.
See, I know how in real life, how much people fuck with me.
So I really don't pay attention to the internet.
Like, I go off of, like, when I see in person.
Because I know somebody would say something on the internet,
but wouldn't whisper it around you in person.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
You're not that bold.
The real life is weird because sometimes, you know,
you'd be on Melrose.
You take 100 photos in a day.
Exactly.
You just, every single person you see is just freaking out.
You know, and then you go read a comment section about you on some food page.
And it's just like a thousand comments.
of like, this guy's a piece of shit,
nobody fuck with them, you know?
And you're like, I was just outside all day.
The internet can make you feel like everybody,
like this is reality.
No cap.
And that's like important.
And you see how much it f***s up like kids.
Yeah.
Like you have 14 year old girl just reading like all your classmates hating on you
and it's hard for you to understand that that's not 100% of what real life is, right?
And that's like right now,
I never seen so much cultures mixing because of the internet.
Like back in the days.
you didn't know what was going on in Atlanta and Texas
unless you went to those places.
Now people can study somebody whole mannerism
and how he move and talk and his lingo
and how he do this and that
and pretend like they're that
all away from just a phone.
See, that's why guys like you and you
and that's the dub and are good at what you do
is because you guys are really from the hood
but you're really good to like taking that shit
that you grew up with
and packaging it with music and art and clothes and all that shit
and being able to basically like sell it back to people who
some of those people that grew up in the exact same circumstances as you
but a lot of it is kids who maybe are from like a better background
and they got $150 to spend on a hoodie or whatever
and they want to fuck with you guys because they see you as like
real representatives of that culture right?
And then I play like I don't just I fuck with the skaters
I fuck with the hipsters I fuck with the thugs I fuck with the normal
people like that's not tripping like I can go in any one of those groups and still be me
I don't have to pretend to be somebody else like I don't have to act like a skater to go kick
you with the skaters I can hop on the skateboard and be a skater I can go with the hoopers and go
hoop with the hoopers like you know what I'm saying a lot of LA rappers would look at like skateboard
and that's like the most foreign fucking thing that they just but never had any interaction with
but I don't know why because it seemed like everybody in LA know how to skate so they they
They probably never got good at it
So they act like they never did it
But you know
I picked up a skateboard
I was watching your
Go Skate Day vlog
My son
Yeah yeah that was dope
So like you know
How serious do you take it
Would you actually be willing to go broke
If you found a rail you wanted to do or some shit
If I was still young
Like I said
I never picked up
What are you like 30?
28
See
You're still young
Come on
I'm 30
You're talking about it
Like yourself, like you're so old that I gave you a couple years.
I think about it.
When the Stink team, probably 10 years ago.
Right.
That's like a decade.
Yeah.
That's, I'm old, nigga.
It's a new generation that young niggas that's all coming out.
I'm like, how old are you?
They'd be like, 20, I'm 20.
I'm 21.
I'd be like, damn, I'm that old.
Like, I interviewed you and Draco seven years ago.
Exactly.
That feels, that is like very close to a decade.
I remember Drake.
was calling niggas 30-old.
And that she was around the corner.
Uzi used to be saying that if you were over 25, you need to stop rapping.
Yeah, shit.
No, I don't think you need to stop rapping.
Because most people start booming after, like, that's when they start figuring out, like,
the actual identity.
Like, some of these niggas, you could be a rapper, but do you have identity as a rapper?
Do people look up to you for knowing you're going to do this?
Like, some people don't have that.
They just got a bunch of bots, so they kind of.
to go with the illusion as if they're actually
popping until the label hit the
switch and then they got to do it all by their self
and they're like, oh, nobody's helping me.
Nobody's fucking. We no more. No, you just
didn't know your label is paying for all those features
you thought was your rap friends and shit.
There's people who don't know that the label
is paying? Most of these rappers
don't know. Really? I figured they were in on it.
Some people got a relationship
with rappers. That's just different. Right.
But some people, they don't.
So they label got to pay for all those verses.
Right. They say, oh, you want to do a song with this dude?
they're like yeah hell yeah
they don't know that came out of a million
dollar deal you probably got
200 bands cash and then
the rest the studio time and that feature right there
you ain't even know you paid him a hundred for that
right you know what I'm saying
are you uh have you ever been tempted to sign
my catalog too long
I don't have to rap really right now
but I do it because if I keep rapping
it just keep going up
I can I can actually stamp that I'm never
gonna go broke type shit.
Like, it's too many songs.
Right.
If I keep going, it's like the stock market.
You never know which one is going to take off.
But do you ever wonder, or do you ever worry about maybe like fucking up your financial
future by wanting to get fly and play the part of the rapper in the short term?
Yeah.
I got, I sell merch.
Fucking skateboard, water, fucking soda, fucking.
We shit my hands isn't too much shit like right I think I'm fucking just kind of crazy because in my mind it's like all this shit could get wiped out any day
No it could but at the same time any one of those songs can
Take off any day and when you got
400 500 to a thousand songs released you never know it's when might read spark up or read go up like you just don't know
And my songs got to have it
just randomly hitting playlists
And I'm like, oh shit
This motherfucker hit this playlist
Look up, it did
Like slime me up going so crazy
Right now, that shit did
Like 1.2 million
And like a month,
then 28 days just
And it keep going crazier
And that song was like
Just a random song
Well not a random song
On the tape
But it was like
It went up a year later
I can't control that
And you don't even know why
There was like a TikTok.
Some kid on TikTok.
Shout out to her.
Whatever she did, she did a little TikTok.
Everybody in their little high schools just followed the trend.
Right.
Yeah, it's crazy because, like, a lot of times if you look at the top songs chart
and then you listen to the fucking songs, you would be like, what the fuck was that?
It would be so weird, so confusing, so not the most popular song in the country.
But then you find out that there's like a 5 million TikToks using the song.
and it's just kind of
mind-blowing
but y'all aren't actually on tic-tok
trying to make these trends pop off
I tried to get on it
when I first found out she had it going
I made a little quick little TikTok
and all the little shits
and then people start doing it
but see I did it with my actual sound
so I tried to get people to do it with my sound
but they were still using her sound
so I'm like fuck it just keep doing her sound
I'm gonna figure out how to collect on that later
but we're gonna do it like this
right you know what I'm saying
I tried to get him.
Yeah, no, definitely.
So do you feel like you're still just doing the merch side of things?
Because, like, when I mentioned Desto Dub, you know,
he's clearly trying to, like, really make his shit, like, more of a fashion image, you know?
See, I can do that if I do a brand.
But right now, like, I like doing pop-ups and, like, shows and shit to where, like,
I can interact with the fans, sell them merch, sit out there, take pictures and shit.
It's more about the interactions with the fans.
because I don't really have no like real push
so I'd rather keep doing pop-ups every week
I said I wanted to go on like a merch tour
like the show for free
and just sell merch and sell like shit
but just do the show for free type of shit
I feel like that would be
because the merch be going crazy
that ain't going on.
That is a good point too.
Merch be going crazy.
And it's crazy, easy to fill up a fucking
big venue if you do free tickets because I remember we did for some reason we did a free show
with max O'Creme in texas one year like a charity show or something and yeah like we fucking just
packed like a huge venue no problem they're saving money on the skip the line pass some people
is a die hard fan so they're gonna buy the skip the line the VIP the the the meeting greed
they're going to buy the whole shit so now they're saving all that why not buy merch right
right you know what I'm saying you don't worry about making yourself too accessible to the
though, or is that not even exist these days?
The people love me.
I don't be feeling weird in this you when I'm outside.
It's always, what's up, Rafi, let me get a picture.
They think I'm not going to, they think I'm a boozy-ass rapper.
Like, I'm not going to take a picture.
But I'd be like, ah, come on, it's good.
Unless I'm, like, took 20 pictures, and I told the last person,
like, are you the last one?
I'm going to hop in the car and slide off, and then somebody randomly come.
Sometimes I'll take it, and then sometimes I'll like,
nah, no, next time you're like,
you know, but most of the time I'm like,
just take a picture real quick.
Where if you at a restaurant, you're like eating a sandwich?
Gang and now.
Let's do a quick selfie, hey?
But like, they don't come off weird.
Like, they come off, like,
looking at first,
and they're like, damn, that's Ralphie.
They tap the person next to him.
Yeah.
And then they always just be on some shit like,
hey, you wouldn't happen to be Ralphie the plug.
I was like, yeah, man.
They always got double check, right?
Can I get a picture? Like, they don't want to come off as aggressive.
You know what I'm saying?
So I don't be tripping.
As long as they do it respectfully.
Yeah.
What about when you're with the kid?
Does that ever get to you?
Baby Ralphie be on some shit, he'd be like, my daddy, Ralphie, the plug.
He'd be taking pictures and shit.
I'd be like, bro, shit.
I'd be like, he'd be on some shit.
He wanted to be YouTube famous.
Really?
He'd be running around the house, jumping around, talking about some,
bro, record me.
Subscribe to my channel.
Whoopi Boo-boo.
I'm like, where did you learn this?
Wait, how old is you?
Five.
Wow, it starts that early.
That's insane.
He running around cartwheeling and doing jumping leap, frogging off of shit.
Right.
Holy shit, because I'm remembering that when we did that last interview that you had your kid with you and he was being a fucking menace.
And I think, oh, no, no, no, no.
We did the Draco interview and you would have been sitting next to him, but the kid was wilding and you had to take him to the car and all that shit.
So that was like, but that's crazy because now he's five, which is like way more.
of an adult.
Like, I'm sure it wouldn't be spazzing like that.
No, he's, no, you should, if you were seeing him?
Oh, he's still going crazy.
If I had brought him in here, he would have been trying to plug all the cameras,
turn the lights on.
Oh, shit, okay.
Oh, Siri, he would have been trying to take them.
Skate boy.
My kid just turned three, and I'm, like, imagining her being way more laid back at five,
but I guess you're right that they still be one.
Yeah, no.
I think he got ADHD, though.
He's going to be high, though.
Definitely.
How hard is it to balance being a dad and being a rapper, though?
I mean, it ain't too hard because my schedule kind of at nighttime.
So, like, every now and then I pick him up from school and shit.
But he's like a, he's an easy kid.
He just want to chill with me.
He'd be chilling with his mind, too, but he want to chill with me.
Right.
So the most thing he do is call all day trying to get me to pull up.
Oh, really?
He wanted to pull up all day.
He want to pull up to the studio.
He wants to pull up and go everywhere.
Like, wherever I'm at, I can be at Dobs shit.
He'd be like, I'm going to pull up.
I'm going to get dropped off.
He'd be like, I'm fin of Uber deer.
Like, he on that type of time.
He's five and he'll just want an Uber somewhere.
I'm telling you, his eating is not eating food in the house that you cook.
His eating is ordering on Uber Eats.
That's what he called Eden.
Right.
Like, he's crazy.
Do you feel like maybe he's going?
got a little bit too long of a leash, like you're
just kind of letting him do whatever the fuck he wants to do?
I don't let him do nothing.
It's the girl?
The mother?
Hey man, I'll be on you.
I'll be on some, like, super tough dad shit.
Right.
I'll be corrected.
I'm like, I'm like a lion with a cub.
Like, I'm going to correct them the raw way.
Right.
I'm not going to sit down.
Don't move.
Nah, I'm going to get your little ass over here, right?
Yeah.
It's take a dude for that, though.
It's weird.
That's the whole thing with a kid is like figuring out when do I be nurturing and caring and soft and kind and understanding and when do I just have to lay the law down and be like, no, it's bedtime.
You're not like getting my attention if you fucking come out here again.
When they think they're on demon time, you got to match their energy.
If not, man, like I could just imagine if I'd match baby Ralphie energy.
Right.
He'd be somewhere breaking TVs and doing some crazy shit.
But if you let him know, like, nah, he gets to sit in the corner and try to cry.
Right.
But when they get super fucking upset and they're screaming at you and crying and shit,
it's kind of like that's when you need to like get low, get quiet,
just like really try to talk to him and shit.
See, I wait till they done crying.
Like, I'm a wait till you done and then be like, all right, man.
So now you know, don't do that bullshit again.
Like, you know.
I like it.
No, you're not going to just...
Crying is the first way to manipulate.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They figure that out real early.
So you're not feeling a fake cry, and then I fake get up on you.
Now you're not crying.
Like, no, you're not going to play me.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Okay, so are you still suing Live Nation?
Yeah.
But that's a court process.
It's just like a really long process.
You know how that process, B.
Right. It could be years before we really know what's going on with that.
Okay.
Makes sense.
Are you still talk to anybody from Shoreline?
I mean, I'll be in Phoenix area down there.
How'd you feel about seeing O'Gisi and him reunite?
It was cool.
Good for them.
Right.
I need to get in the studio and go drop the tape.
You think that they're really fucking with each other,
or you think this is just them realizing they can make some money together and saying, fuck it?
I really don't be like, I was, if,
They get together, they get together.
They don't.
That's them.
When I came back, I thought they was together.
You know what I'm saying?
So I don't really know what they got going on.
But, I mean, that would be like the ultimate tour
that would probably fucking have you guys
playing huge venues to get Grito,
Shoreline, reunited, even if they ain't really
fucking with each other, they're going to be fake cool with each other.
And then Ralphie and whoever with the stinks and shit,
that would be a fucking crazy-ass nationwide tour.
We would love to see that.
That would be so crazy.
Yeah, that would go crazy.
But, you know, everybody in their own little worlds.
Yeah.
That's why I figured out everybody in their own worlds.
Like, no matter how much people want shit to be, like, in a certain way,
everybody got their own shit going on.
So people like to hold on to what they got going on.
Some people don't care.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, for a lot of artists, I feel like there's a time period in their life
where they feel like, oh, this is all about gang.
It's all about hanging.
with the homies and just being cool and we're going to be best friends forever and this is definitely
what I'm describing is basically what happened with Shoreline and then at a certain point they sort
of just snap and are like oh actually this shit is about making as much money as I can from the
rapping and whatever I got you know as like that everybody kind of has that when they're young they
feel like their friends are the most important thing and then they start to get older and they realize
their family or the business or whatever is the most important thing but I mean I don't know you feel like
You've kind of had that transition at all,
where you get kind of disillusioned with a lot of the people?
Nah, hell no.
I always been in my own world.
Like, I never really was like,
I'm cool people,
but I never really been like,
I need to chill with people and I need to hang around people.
Everybody knows me.
I'll be dolo half the time.
So I never really,
I don't know,
I can't explain it.
I'm just,
I can be me by myself.
I don't need a group of people to be me.
Right.
Definitely.
What's going on with the chief and heavily?
Because I've seen you guys have some pop-ups on Melrose and shit like that.
How hard you're going with it?
It's the fucking man.
Dropping merch here and there, trying to get my shit out there, you know.
That's all it is.
Keeping the truth for life.
What's the brand all about?
Smoking hella weed.
Chief and sipping and dripping heavily.
That's all it is.
That sounds about right?
Yeah.
Sound like the culture.
That's the culture. That's the lifestyle.
You customized this hoodie?
Yeah. Custom, you know.
He added little drips and splashes and
I like it. You can be going crazy.
This one, Draco actually had too.
Oh, he wore it or he got the same one?
He had the same one.
Wow, that's legendary.
Oh, shit.
You mentioned sipping.
What's the state of your drug intake these days, Ravi?
I'd be sipping every blue moon.
Yeah, you see me.
a little bit coherent more so than in the past.
I'm always like, I've always been to type of poor line every blue moon.
But Draco, he go crazy.
His life was a fucking blur.
A photo of day.
Like, he's going crazy.
Go crazy.
I always told myself, if he can do this shit like this and still be good, I'm good with my little deucees and lines and shit I'll be pouring.
Like, long as I drink a lot of water.
Right.
Oh, the water for sure.
No, because, like, when you hear people from Texas talk about how,
They got all these legends who never passed away off lien or whatever because they do a more moderate amount.
It's not a fucking contest.
They hydrate.
They take care of themselves a little bit and they can engage in it.
But like over the years, there's been so many people that we've seen who.
No, they're not dying off of juice.
They're dying off of fake juice.
If you really, if you really pay attention to the people that died off of juice, it's not real juice.
I mean, people will be having liver failure and shit, but that's niggas that ain't drinking up.
While they're going hard.
They never just
They always dehydrated
They just smoking weed all day
And they're drinking that bullshit
So there's a lot of fake lean going around now
Yeah hell yeah
It's called home brew
How is it?
It's fucked up
Homebrew
Bro I bet it's eye
No the thing is
It don't taste nasty
It tastes to some
To some people
They think it tastes exactly the same
Yeah because I'm not a fucking lean wizard
And I always wondered that
I'm like why is the cartel not
Whipping up some fire fake lean
See it to me it's not really about being a
Lean Wizard, but if you've been drinking the juice long enough, you know what it's supposed
to taste like.
Can't nobody hand me nothing and say that's that if, and then if I taste it, it's not that.
You can't convince me otherwise.
But as the lean game evolves, it's like people used to hate on red.
Now everybody seems happy to drink some red.
People used to hate on green.
Now you got people really flexing green in music videos and shit like that.
So it's like, as time goes by, I feel like people are just going to be like, I don't drink,
This fake shit, especially if it's fire.
I feel like that's because
the wok. I mean, it started
with the act. Justin
Bieber fucked that up.
They gave us Wock.
Walk was cool.
They gave us, like, they're dropping it off.
You know that gave it to us.
Like, oh, we're going to give you something similar,
but not the same shit. Like, they know what the
fuck they do. Don't ever bring that green
up. Right. Green. You don't fuck with that.
That green out of the lineup.
Nah, but then you have the glass, red.
Then you had the high-tech red.
Then you had the high-tech acorn.
Then you had the acorn.
Like, then it was the, what was that shit?
Well, quality to.
Quality.
The par fucked it up because there was a bunch of fake par.
The shit is fake, period.
So that shit was going around fucking up, killing everybody.
That's when it hit hard, the par.
That's when a lot of people start just randomly dying off the juice.
Really?
Do you think the game will ever just be over?
Like there just won't be any of this shit.
Hell, duh.
Hell, duh.
That's like saying the niggas gonna stop smoking weed.
Hell, though.
Right, they'll find a way.
For sure.
It'd be hard, but don't get it.
Smoking.
Yeah?
For real. That's what you can see.
A regular weed blunt, it might do that if it's some super pressure.
You put that wax in it, it's a whole different universe.
It's just like, rosen.
Sorry.
Yeah.
She'll be going to get on your ass at this time.
He ain't playing that.
Wait, wax just doesn't burn the same, or what?
No, wax is like, they put a bunch of chemicals in that shit.
Oh, really?
The rosin made with, like, ice and water.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've seen them make it before, okay.
It's been a while, though.
Damn, you've seen them make it?
You was in a good place.
I mean, just to watch some documentaries.
Or even, like, the compression, like the machine where they just fucking smash it
and all comes out the size.
I forget what that shit was called.
Okay, but so are you still fucking with the perks and shit like that,
Is that era over?
That's like, the naked head be heard,
pop a perk, every blue moon.
You know that shit, you just do whenever it's like,
juice, it tastes good, so I drink juice.
So it's like, I don't have to be in no type of mood
to just, all right, let me get in line, type of shit.
It tastes good.
It goes with my weed when I'm wrapping,
smoke my weed, drink my juice.
Make the weed taste better, too.
do. Oh yeah. Smoking and drinking
lean.
Damn. Kind of get an appetite
off that shit, too. Oh, yeah.
Get some food. Yeah, because I don't
really be fucking
eating this shit. I know
I'm lying. I'll be fucking Uber
eating it. And DoorDash
got me in the head.
They got me in the
headlock. I have to, like,
bro, I'm not fucking with this app.
I tried to delete it, but I can't delete
it because I always got to order some
random shit and send it somewhere.
When you drink and lean, smoking
And you got some Uber Eats coming
You just feel like this is the good life
Like this is just where I need to be
But I work so much
And I got a kid now
So I just never let myself do that shit
But as a rapper I feel like you got a lot of times
It's like a good excuse
Yeah I'll be in the studio a lot
I'll be recording
That's one thing I do do
I'm gonna drop a tape on Christmas too
Oh nice
Anything special plan for that
What's the idea?
Shit, I guess I'm here rolling it out, a rapper overnight.
That's what you're going to call it?
Three.
Fucking, what is it?
Christmas Day type of shit.
Oh, okay.
But yeah, I fucking, I don't know.
I'm just dropping some shit.
It'd be dry, nobody's drop shit.
So I'll be dropping shit.
I tried to take a break.
Drop like six tapes.
That ain't too much.
Do you feel like L.A.
Rap in general is dry?
Or just rap in general?
It's a couple rappers doing their shit, but it's like,
rapping dry is just, period.
Every week, you got a small attention spent.
I always say this shit.
Like, every week it's something like that sound like the exact same person,
just in a new advanced way.
But nobody just coming out of nowhere, just original.
That's what's going on right now.
Yeah, it's weird.
It's like, I used to be the kind of person when I was young
who would go buy a CD and spend $12.
12 bucks, 15 bucks to cop a CD
just because I needed those 10 songs,
those 15 songs in my life.
And now there's infinite fucking music
and the kids don't give a fuck.
Everybody want to be a rapper.
Yeah.
Everybody.
Nobody wants to be the producer or the cameraman
or the fucking manager.
Everybody wants to be like a rapper.
Even female.
Now they're popping, so that's changed everything.
Everybody got identity crisis right now.
people got main person central.
Yeah, main character syndrome.
Yeah, they all think they're some,
it's because of Instagram.
So people just sitting at home,
they're popping on their phone,
but when they go in the real world,
like I said.
So you're a rapper, so you, like,
buying drip,
having chains,
is all an investment in your career
so you can justify it.
But if you were giving advice to some dude
who got like, you know,
he work in the office,
he got a cool job,
but he want to be
he want to look like a rapper
he want all the girls
to be feeling like he got money
and shit
would you recommend to him
to just save his money
and just be on some normal shit
or should he really be invested
and looking like a rapper
you always got to have something
going on the side
even if you're working
this LA
your job alone
is only going to pay a rent
it's not going to pay for your car
no
it's not going to pay for
the gas
the electric bill
all this fucking
Amazon Uber
each shit you subscribe to
it ain't going to pay
for that shit.
So you just got to do what you do
and do it smart.
Like I tell people if you're going to do something,
do merch.
Because that investment is already
like,
that's going to get you some money.
Merch is going to get you guys some money.
A lot of people would be better,
would be smart to kind of humble themselves
and realize that maybe they're not meant to be the person
with the clothing line,
but they could be the guy who's helping
someone who has a clothing line.
marketing inside.
Building their repertoire that way, their resume,
and able to, you know, kind of build a way to make money that way.
But so many people just want to be the star of the fucking show.
You want to be TikTok famous.
That clout.
Everybody converting from Instagram to TikTok because they're like,
oh, yeah, I can just go be famous on TikTok.
I ain't got to do nothing.
I know girls who, like, started TikTok and just had one random TikTok get, you know,
400K.
And so as a result, the rest of their life,
They're making TikToks just trying to get that feeling back.
Yeah.
Of just having 150 people comment on their shit.
And it's one of those apps to where it's not really like, it's not really fucking, it's
nobody just controlling it or nothing.
So the only person controlling is you.
So if you go live and say some stupid shit and they ban you fucking lie, that's because
you was doing some dumb shit smoking in the background and shit.
It's only you that can fuck that app up.
That is the crazy thing is like, you know,
TikTok will break your fucking heart.
I know so many people that got popping on there
and the whole account got deleted
just for some dumb shit that they didn't know.
You could say anything on there
and get deleted and lose your fucking account.
So you can walk past where I'm on TikTok
with a blunt and they're going to zap me.
It's over with it.
Right.
30 days.
I'll be talking to a girl
and she'll be talking about something
that she was doing, shaking her ass on there.
I'm like, yeah.
Yeah, you'll pop it.
But she'll be like, oh, this other girl
was doing the same exact thing.
I'm like, listen,
You cannot expect this fucking app to be fair.
No, that app is bots control and they've got moderators and shit.
It's like a fucking Chinese concentration camp on there, bro.
They're just making you do whatever the fuck they want.
They can make you pop and they can shut your shit down too.
I don't know why this came up in conversation,
but I saw my man Dejan Paul saying that he would fight you for 50K in a boxing match.
I'm like, damn, do everybody just think I'm just like,
do they believe all the internet shit?
Like, bro, I've been going to jimps.
since I was like 11 years old.
I'm like a baby kid.
Like I went to six middle school.
Do people just think like I'm just like,
I can beat Ralphie ass like that's fucked up.
That's hilarious to me.
Would you whoop him for 50K?
Come on.
That's my boy, man.
But like, come on, yeah.
Have you been happy with the grades that he's given you in the past?
I don't really care about the grades,
but I'm a say something if it's like false.
He's going to have a 50,
K. Hey, you want to see that BGK?
I don't know. Yeah, where's the 50K?
Not saying he don't got it, but like typically, like pretty famous people will get paid less than 50K to box.
Yeah. It's not super easy to get a bag for doing a celebrity box a thing at this point. I don't know.
That'd be fun.
Yeah?
Yeah.
You wouldn't do it in the 55th Street alley?
Nah, I got to be professional.
We got to have the count. We got to get the count right. We got to do ticket sales at the door.
We got to make sure everything is legit.
Yeah.
You don't drive a record.
report card about your boxing performance
watch that shit back and just grade your
strike anger and shit what
okay
strikes gonna be official
do you do you respect what he's doing though
by doing the report cards and you know I think it's dope
the whole scene yeah I fuck what he doing
you know what I'm saying but you know when he be on that bush I think he'd be
trolling though he just be trying to he know how to get people
riled up
that's why I fuck with it because he's
You know how to, like, post some shit that you're going to look at, you know, kind of like, man, hell, God.
Right.
He knows how to get people riled up.
But then again, it's only his opinion.
It's got to be a weird feeling giving somebody an F and then seeing them around.
Yeah.
And just wondering, like, how does this dude feel about the fact that I just said your whole existence that you've worked on your entire life is fucking ass?
But see, yeah.
But everything and every aspect that we do what we do in, we do it to the max.
So it's like, who's going harder?
Right.
You can say all these people are doing this, but like, it's all in the illusion.
Long as a label, please.
One of my YouTuber friends, Trappler Ross, he had a video titled,
The L.A. Robbery Squad that only targets Asians.
Fuck.
And it was all y'all in the thumbnail.
That's fucked down.
That's a pretty good YouTube title.
What they said, what Draco said, they put her pictures on the screen, they're like, damn, they icey.
What's the point?
Do you resent people making YouTube videos and characterizing y'all that way?
I mean, some people be having me, that's all we do is look at this shit all day, so I'll be watching this shit.
I'm like, damn, people really be having their whole little thoughts to, like, allusions about this shit.
They create, like, a whole world of Sting Team Drama.
and just put it all in one.
It'd be funny.
Yeah, there is like an effort by certain people
to try to like turn the Stink team into a soap opera.
Just so they can have something to make YouTube videos about.
I mean, like this would be regular everyday random bull or shit.
Yeah.
Nah, definitely.
Where are you at with Soldier Boy?
Not a fan?
I don't really be on the internet with these like the antics and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
because dub
uh dub basically said that he wouldn't
fuck with him and then soldier boy went on
a fucking rant saying fuck dove
fuck out on 22 all this shit
whereas like why the fuck would he
expect dub to fuck with him
when he's made it a point to
diss somebody that dub was really close with him
and you can't hold that against him just because he's a clothing dude
right? Yeah you know how that shit dude
he's a wanna be draco so bad
that's really good
clones
hmm
he's been copying so many rappers over the years
though. It's like
He's not wearing fake jewelry too.
He wears fake jewelry?
I've seen him wearing some fake Gucci before.
Fake watches too.
For real.
Fuck.
Damn, that's a crime punishable
by death or what?
I mean, I wouldn't do it.
I wouldn't dare wear that.
So if you found out the rapper that you
currently fuck with had fake chains,
it would just be like
a devastating blow.
I'm faking.
I've been thinking, because I treat this shit like a sport.
Like, so I try to like, like, damn, man, I got to give me some new shit.
Like, it's a bit of manate type of shit.
Like, it's a sport.
So when you out here playing with the sport and it's like you got niggas thinking that you're going crazy
and you ain't going crazy, it's like, you're pumping.
Like, oh.
I remember Young Scooter saying, like, I know he fake because he got fake jewelry.
And I didn't understand back in the day, but now I see the way the rap.
view it and I get it.
Not rappers, just like, if you're real,
you got to be real with yourself first.
Like, you don't have nothing to do with being a rapper.
Because even if we wasn't rapping,
we were still having jewelry and shit.
So it's been a sport since then.
So, niggas out here playing with the fake shit.
Nah, fuck that.
Yeah.
I respect it.
There was a clip of an Instagram live
that was going a little viral.
It was basically Frosty the Snowman,
and being mad at his homie
because he said they keep buying
lean from the Stink team.
You don't even like to talk about.
I mean, hey,
sometimes you got a copse and drank off a hop, right?
I mean, you might not even know you're selling
to somebody that somebody else would feel away about, right?
Not that you would sell it, but hypothetically.
I don't know who niggas can get juice right, man.
I'll sell juice, man.
But it's like a communal thing,
you know, people come together to do it.
It's not like a sale, really, right?
I don't know.
Shit. Fuck juice.
Would you be able to cop some lean from somebody if you knew that they had op homies?
I don't even play like that.
Okay.
I already got my community.
I'm a real drink sipper, so it's a community of the drink.
Everybody got that own community of sipper.
I got my old-heads and shit grannies and no.
Do you remember the next?
a social lounge era that big ass warehouse the dub used to work for downtown the little indian
dude Mike was the dude who owned it and shit you know we didn't really go out to shit like oh this is
before your time yeah you know we were somewhere probably oh three two fucking chilling i just remember
that they would be buying so much lean that they would buy out the lean man to make like give him
extra to sell everything to him so that the other big time lean drinkers wouldn't be able to
they get their hands on it.
And that was like a crazy revelation to me.
Yeah, the juice is a crazy game.
Juice came crazy.
And this is five, six years ago.
This is way expensive.
You can't do that right now.
That shit going to, you try to buy all the juice.
You're going to be a million.
You're going to be in a, uh-huh.
Your pocket going to be broke.
Right.
Yeah.
I'm trying to buy all the juice right now.
Currently.
Yeah.
It's bad.
But then once you have all of it, you can charge more for it.
supply and demand.
If there's no supply,
the demand goes way up.
Nope, we're going to drink it all.
Drink it.
So, okay, what is the best trick that you could probably do right now?
If you were trying to get an Instagram clip,
what's the best clip that you could probably bust out
in a skate park session right now?
Inward heel.
Inward heel.
Inward heel.
Over what?
Like a hip?
Over like probably like a little gap or something.
Mm.
A little edge.
I like it.
kickflip though too. Probably even
trade flip if I lose some of my weight, but right
now, inward hill, I can do that.
I think I've seen this my setup board,
because some people ride too loose. I've seen
Rich the kid do a tray flip before, I think, back
in the day. No, he's kind of good. Yeah.
But you know who's dummy nice is that BLP
kosher? I heard
he can do like a kickflip and shit.
Oh, no, he's nice. He got crazy pole jam
clips and shit. He got real video parts.
Oh, no, he probably hard, but look, I seen Rich
the kid do like a fucking
big flip off some crazy stuff.
and shit do some rills I'm like oh he going kind of crazy I ain't know he was going that
crazy right he kind of was looking kind of exclusive on the board you got a little bit of
competition out there though be able to kosher man I'm putting all my money on him I wonder
how much he actually still skates though he probably do yeah yeah for sure he fuck around the backyard
for sure what uh what's going on with the whippets I don't really fuck with the whippets I don't
fuck with anymore I watched the whippets like give me
niggas they down for us.
Really?
I've seen how that shit work in real life.
Yeah, that's a weird one.
Certain times when I, because now being on Melrose again, some people will come in with
the fucking tank and I'm like, oh, shit.
Because some people do a good job hiding it on the internet, but then you see them in
real life and you realize like, oh, they really off that shit.
Yeah.
But so you've seen people fuck their whole life up off it?
I mean, I see things start changing over time.
Real out.
Like, just start.
And then they start acting kind of too fucked up
Right
Right
It definitely turning you into a weird dude
I don't trust any drug that you have to do
Like every 30 seconds
Even when I was doing it
Like I used to hit it
But like I wasn't trying to just clear
Like two, three fucking whippets
I was just trying to like
All right now I'm too hot here
A past five
Yeah
But when I'm on one
You know it's cool
For the little moment
at the studio type of shit but I ain't
been off that shit so
yeah if you can control it I feel like
it's like a cool thing to fuck around and do
a little bit but if you're gonna allow yourself to
be the kind of person who's gonna do it all fucking
night like nah yeah
you gotta have some self-control if you're gonna fuck around
with that shit that shit's just killing
brain cells when you do it which I'm not really trying
to fuck around with personally yeah fuck that
I already burnt enough of those
what made you want to reach out
to X4 because you worked with
real early on. I've been fucking with him, so
when he got out, I was fucking with him, too.
He's going crazy.
You just tapped in? I like his shit.
Yeah, no, he's going crazy for sure.
He's got his little flow. He'd be going on, talking his little shit.
I've been off that loosely.
That shit smack.
No, definitely. Was he someone that you thought about trying to get the
signed to the Stink Team or not?
I know, I know he in his own little world, so
he can go crazy, like, by itself.
I like to see people go crazy.
I just like to see the build-up and shit, you know.
Right. Definitely. Yeah, no, his shit's been going crazy.
They had a whole argument on the news the other day because somebody...
Fuck the news is crazy.
Like Fox 11?
No, our news.
Oh, my damn.
No, if they were arguing about hip-hop or about X-4 on the news, they'll be confusing.
But no, they were talking about saying Draco's like the most influential rapper from L.A.
Some people were saying ever and some people were saying the last 10 years, how do you feel about?
about that in terms of what kind of respect he deserves.
I'm gonna say he's the hardest rapper ever,
but influence by, he got the last 10 years.
For sure.
Right.
For sure.
He got everybody walking around, fake pole,
high slurring in their music,
talking about crashing forms,
exotic gun talk,
like designer drip talk.
I guess in LA wasn't really talking like that.
It was more like low riders and Chevy,
six foals and with the 40 Glock and shit like that.
Dickies and Chucks with the Pro Club.
They wasn't really crashing forms,
putting in music videos and shit,
putting it as they mix they cover,
shit like that.
He brought like the ignorant culture.
Like, so people always say like,
that's like some LA shit.
Yeah, that's some LA shit,
but niggas wasn't putting in the words,
he put it in.
It wasn't L.A. like anything that came out of L.A. before that.
And I feel like Draco, his flow has influenced people all over the country,
including people who don't even realize that they're influenced by him
because they're influenced by somebody else who was influenced by him.
So they don't even necessarily know that they're kind of doing like a version of his shit.
I have respect for somebody like X4 who realizes that his flow was definitely
fucking influenced by Draco and that a lot of that and his whole generation, really, you know.
Yeah, hell yeah, that nigga, too.
He was the artist to me.
He influenced a lot of people.
Hmm.
That's a fact.
He put that shit on.
He gonna look the iciest.
Like, he gonna pull it looking crazy.
It's crazy though because that is like, Greg goes L.A. as fuck, but he had to,
he kind of like rejected so much of what it was to be a rapper from L.A. before that, you know?
Like a lot of shit.
Sonically, flow-wise.
He was like, yeah, we ain't trying to shoot with no palm trees and shit.
in the background, like,
we're going to show you how the hood look,
the backgrounds,
and pulling Draco's out in music videos,
shooting in random ass spots and shit.
Like, he was on some other shit.
Niggas wasn't just having Dracos
and music videos and shit.
This nigga's wild.
That's a fact.
I always,
because it always plays that one,
what's the one freestyle with the foot?
It has like a billion views,
dubs in the video with the Gene Jack and all.
Yeah, the Impatia Freestyle.
Man, he was on the balcony.
Because that's the apartment that you guys all got raided in too, right?
I don't know, this nigga wild.
It's going crazy.
That's crazy.
All right.
When you want to remember, Draco, what's the number one music video or number one song that you put on?
They're really like, it's just the perfect song for that.
See, it's no perfect song, but it's a lot of songs that I like, Mr. Everything is one of them.
like the geeked up freestyle that's another one
it's this song called act stupid if you want to
but that's kind of hard to find
you gotta do some real digging up right now
now it's a song that he dropped like a long time ago
but like people say like he just start rapping like that
or whatever the fuck they'd be saying
but this song is like 2011 10-inch type shit
it's an old-ass song like how y'all
I say he just start rapping like this.
This nigger been rapping like this.
He just dumped it down.
But you act stupid if you want,
it's a good one.
And then it's too many.
He got too many.
A fool flamming.
That's my go-toe.
That's the one of them ones.
Which is crazy because, like,
we were just rocking out to Cold Devil for so long.
And I kind of got used to the feeling
that that was going to be the best body of work he ever did.
to shoot a baby.
Oh, man.
I don't go back to shoot a baby.
I don't know.
With the fucking mass.
This thing is the defense.
But if you want to explain Draco to somebody,
you might have to show them to shoot a baby to kind of be like, listen.
He's going to crazy.
This dude is not a normal dude.
For real.
Especially having kids.
Shoot a baby is tough to sing along to.
Yeah, I don't know.
Damn.
All right.
So, you know, it was a good conversation.
I'm glad to see everything.
going well what do you want to make sure they check out my fucking new tape

I'm trying to get drippy, man. I went to Melrose the other day
and Doug made me change my whole outfit. He said I looked like shit.
He said, man, you need to be a good show, man.
He gave me some shoes and everything. It was actually a really
cool way to get some free drip. I like your fit right now.
You kind of dripped up right now.
