No Jumper, coolest podcast on the world.
And today, back with an old friend.
Haven't seen him in a while.
Block Boy, J.B.
How you doing, man?
What you've been on?
Oh, man, I'm about to be a dad.
Thanks for asking, though.
They never ask.
I always ask how they're doing.
They never ask how I'm doing.
Could be a dad.
Yeah.
It could happen any minute.
Shit.
I could literally get a fucking text or a call during this.
Like, I have to go home.
We have to give breast of the baby.
It's kind of like a weird state to be living and just knowing that it could pop off in any minute.
That's crazy.
I remember my first.
How many you want now?
How many at mom?
Yeah, two.
Two.
Yeah.
See, that's a crazy part is that's like a lot of like the 19 year old dudes I know have like multiple kids and I'm 36 just plotting on my first one.
Mm-hmm.
What was that like though back in the day though?
How did your first kid come about random ass conversation we might as well do?
Shit.
Baby mama.
I really planned it.
I was like, I want a child by my birthday.
And shit.
I think I did probably like August or some shit.
like that. Then May came.
May the 20th, my birthday, May 19.
So I got my May the 20th, like a day after.
Right. So it was like, cool.
Did it change your life a lot?
Yeah. I had dropped my first mixtape.
I was like, I got to go hard in these routes.
Like, I think I had J-Gat-5 from McDonald's or something.
I didn't even know that. You worked at McDonald's?
Yeah, I worked at McDonald's, K-O-C-N, and Pop-Eyes.
Holy shit. Were they all in the same area or like different parts of town?
Different parts.
Which one was the best one?
I say McDonald's because I turned it to block donuts because it was like all my folks,
all my folks like three or fours that all had the same job.
We worked at the same time.
Right.
You can work anywhere if you're with your friends or your fucking family members, like people you really fuck with.
Like, yeah, I have memories of high school of loving some of the stupid-ass jobs I had
just because, like, the people were cool and we just had so much fun, actually.
Yeah, yeah.
I love that job.
We used to do a lot of shit there.
And then everybody, after the,
after we get off,
he ain't got to worry about a ride
because somebody got a ride.
One of us going to get a ride.
We got to go to the same neighborhood.
Facts.
Wait, did you ever have, like, any, like, good scams or schemes going on?
Because I had a homie worked at KFC in high school,
and he was bringing in more money from just pocketing and shit,
like, in the drive-thru than he was making from his check every week.
I said KFC, because they used to, like, let us get, like,
the food that was, like, when we closed,
we get all the food,
and I can go home with the KOC and I'd be like, yeah, wants a KLC, give it $2,000,
give you this, twillip piece.
You get a little bonus at the end of the night?
Yeah, for sure.
That's fire.
Yeah, I was back watching, like, all the old videos and shit last night.
Like, I ain't seen the shoot video in a minute.
And I was just, like, thinking, like, because I remember when you came out,
it was before everybody knew about Blockboy, we were looking at you, like,
like, yo, this dude is geeked.
Like, these fools are crazy.
These videos are so high energy.
We had never seen anything like it.
When you think back on that time period in your life, like, were those good times, like, before you actually blew up as a rapper?
Yeah, that was more fun.
Nine people got more images.
They, like, I don't, they got a little older.
And they're like, nah, I can't do this.
It's certain shit they don't want to do.
That's the deal.
I still like, I mean, do you think that it could have been somebody else from that area?
Like, because you guys just had so much energy, or do you feel like, in a lot of ways you were sort of the driving force of, like, you know, just being the dude with all the energy who was just,
blowing up out of that little scene.
To be honest, it could have been somebody else,
but it just, I was like,
if you seen me back in the day,
you were like, ah, this nigga, he's awesome.
Because, like, really, I was on some shit, for real.
Like, literally, I was always,
you always see me with some headphones on like this
or somewhere, like a headphone around my neck,
big headphones, they purple beats.
They walk around.
Every time you see me, I have them on.
Like, because I put my headphones and start writing it any second.
That's right.
Yeah, do you, like when I, when I, when I thought, back in the day, I forget who put me on to you, but they said like, hell, these fools be off mad ecstasy.
And I remember I asked you that and you were like, nah, like, what the fuck?
You were like, what are you talking about?
Yeah.
Because like, especially that one fool who was doing that, that fucking dance move, which I love and, yo, more people need to do that shit.
That right there, I was like, okay, that fool looks like he's definitely on something to be doing that dance move right there.
he's the one who don't even smoke or nothing he's the soberest person he don't even drink
he just go crazy right yeah that's crazy when so when you look back at those those days back then
and like doing all those no chorus ones the early ones and shit do you think in some way that you were
happier back then or like life was just mad simple but you didn't know you didn't know what you
were gonna like be you know being to travel the world and see what's going on everywhere it's like
you really didn't know what you were missing out on at that time it's so different right
Mm-hmm. It's like, I really, it really ain't just different. I just say it's, my mood is just really the same, but it's just like, it's a lot of shit that I know that I got to do. Like, I got a lot of shit on my back.
Mm-hmm. Is it hard to say motivated sometimes? Like, just back then it was easy to be motivated because you didn't have shit going on.
Mm-hmm. I don't know. It's still motivated because I still look at my progress. I don't look at nothing negative. Like, me right now, I'm still looking at shit positive. My mind still still the science.
Because back then, you know, I never was cocky or nothing.
I never, I just always like, I'm humble, so whatever happened happened.
That's real, because I feel like that's one thing people always really liked about you
was just that you were a super down-to-earth guy.
You didn't have some crazy rapper attitude trying to act all cocky and shit.
That's because that's why everybody just fuck with me because they ain't going to, they're like,
oh yeah.
He ain't never just no too cocky-ass nigger.
I don't want to just too much to speak, nothing, or they want to just too much get on my ass.
because I'm not cocky, you know?
Right.
That's real.
Do you feel like there's been, like, pressure
from the music industry or just through your success for you to change
and become a different person that's, like, you know,
more like the average rapper or the average celebrities?
You sometimes feel like, you know, the label
or whoever wanted you to be, like, a different version of yourself?
Yeah, sometimes I'd be feeling like that,
but it's just like, I'd be wanting people to actually, like,
listen to me.
That's the other thing that changed about me.
I'm still the sign.
person like I just I just have fun I still have fun doing the science shit that's how I make
music just having fun but like I just want people to actually listen to my lyrics and shit like
that because I'd be like niggas just be too much dancing yeah do you how do you feel like your
music has changed since you sort of blew up because I'm really fucking with the new album fat
was it fat boy right fat boy I'm fucking with the album like I think it's it's fire like
it just honestly listening to it just like made me realize like damn block boy's still going in
He still got crazy as energy and his music.
Like, I don't know.
I think it's a very underrated project right now, to be honest.
Yeah, because it's, but crazy part about it, I expected to be underrated.
I was like, oh, yeah.
I was like, my shit, I was like, uh, I know this shit going to be.
I ain't going to, I don't expect no too high numbers on the first week.
I don't even care about the numbers.
I'm just, it's my first album.
So I can't go nowhere, but, oh.
So, like, I was like, shit, if it do whatever it do, at the end of the day,
give it three, four weeks.
the videos and shit niggas gonna start
catching on and then they're gonna go back
just listen to that album so it's gonna, it don't even matter.
Definitely. Do you feel like people
like, do you feel like people just
want to hate on you at a certain point? Because I've seen you
responding to some people online and shit, just talking
shit, acting like, you know, the album ain't gonna
sell all that great or whatever.
How do you look at that? And how do you feel
like when you just have people
that want to, you know, cast
a negative narrative on top of
your career or whatever?
It don't bother me, to be honest, because
when I click that negative comment at the end of the day every time I swear to God every
negative comment I click it and I be like I bet this nigga follow me and then they it's like
follow back on that motherfucker so he followed me so I'm still winning he wanted to see some shit
and he's gonna say negative shit regardless it doesn't even matter right he's still nobody don't
know his music nobody you know I never listened to his music do you feel like you in some ways
you kind of blew up so fast that it gave people weird expectations of what was
supposed to be coming from you?
To be honest, I feel like
I didn't even blow up there for it.
It's just like, motherfuckers
went even on me, so I just, when I had
this song, it blew up.
I didn't blow up, the song blew up.
So, like,
people didn't even just know that I had, like,
fucking four mixtapes out before this shit.
So I always had a grind anyway.
So I feel like people just don't understand that.
Right.
Yeah, I mean, it was,
because so many things like hit at the same time for you like the the Drake
collab comes out and obviously just introduces you to an insanely huge number of
new people the dance became so ridiculously huge that you couldn't fucking ignore it
you're on the double Excel cover you got all these other records blowing up like
Rover and shit all at that time like it's like you know sometimes people have a
hard time like comprehending that somebody could sort of like come out and just make
such a name for themselves that fast and it causes them to sort of
want like have weird expectations for that person to continue to you know have these giant
moments like that to be honest that means that was just bandwagon so that means they never
listen to the music because if you if you fuck with the person or you fuck with the music
I feel like they still listening to my music like with my fans they still listening to my
music the bandwagon the big one like oh oh yeah somebody come over there like I you
hear this on oh yeah I heard it I heard it and
they go go back and do their research on the song.
Now they like the song.
But you know what I'm saying?
I don't just, I just think of myself.
Right.
It's weird because you only get to be new once.
And there's a certain percentage of people that are only really going to be paying attention when you're brand new.
And then they just sort of tune out real quick.
Like, you know, people are sort of like bandwaggingy with it.
Like, yeah, they're tuned out.
And guess what, they're going to come back again.
If I see, like, it's just time.
It's just take time.
And like, the longer you keep rap.
And the more, like, the more you keep going, it's the bigger your fan base kid.
Like, you, I know when I first dropped them with my real fans.
Like, I already knew that because every time I look at my comments, we just see something about Drake or something shit.
But now, like, the comments change is, it's like, niggas starting to say, like, I'll fire.
Oh, shit, I like this, like, I'm looking at that.
So I just, you know.
Yeah, because it is weird if you think, like, if you spent your whole life and your whole career and shit, trying to, like, live up to
like prior moments where shit was viral,
you would just be ignoring the fact that
like, you know, when you look at your shit, like, I'm reading
through the comments, I'm looking at the views and the likes
and shit, and I'm like, you know, he's still really, I was like
a big ass, solid core fan base, but it's like,
sometimes people lose sight of that because you just have these
giant moments where, you know,
people's just, shit is going so viral,
you know? Yeah, but, you know,
it's just like time, like I said, just time.
It all take time.
You know, like, the people that's viral,
they're going to have their moments and then it's going to just,
like go down for them and then they're going to have to not know that all these fans that
I had they were just bandwagon fans they ain't the ones that were actually listening to my
music but you still got motherfuckers just actually listening to your music so you just keep going
keep going now you got you're going have a stronger fan by like the fans that love you to death
like you can make songs for 40 years from now they still listening to your music instead of the
fans that just listen to your music because everybody else knows the song definitely yeah
so it's all about your perspective on that
You know, like you could very easily, there's definitely artists who come out and have like a viral moment and then they just get, they get weird and start doing weird shit musically and stuff, you know.
Yep, and they break them down because like, they're like, oh, yeah, my album doesn't sell this good or oh, it indeed is and then do that.
But, bro, you still got motherfuckers listen to your music at the end of the day.
And now you're taking it as a, you're taking it in a whole other perspective.
You just got to grab it like, oh, okay, now this album did this minute sales first week.
okay, if my last album did higher than it and this one is lower, okay, I'm, let me make
sure this next album get hired than this one. So if you do that, then you're still winning.
I feel for sure. It's crazy because when I first had you, we did the green screen interview
on Nojumber back in the day, that was actually before the Drake collab. So like, how did that,
like, you know, how did that actually come to you? Like, how did you get hit up about that?
shit Instagram
you just hit you up
yep
straight off Instagram
like crazy
definitely
and what was the
like how did you guys meet up
I forget where you actually
did that video
it was in Memphis right
uh huh
he met up in Memphis
he flew out to Memphis
just to shoot the video
and we had like a little party
had like a whole lot of grown
a few minutes
I ain't nothing about growing
when you think back on that
with that like one of your first times
really seeing like some
rich shit
that you just hadn't really been exposed
to yet yeah sure I was like I ain't never seen just way he came in you was
thought this nigga was the president yeah big ass security guards like I was
with God if got it like he he moved like one security guard but right didn't
he moved like three oh me move like president them niggas and them niggas be on it like
the niggins didn't let me come to him like you shit but it's crazy because he
pulled up to like the trenches basically like he's in areas where people
just couldn't believe he was willing to go.
Mm-hmm.
But he was there.
That's crazy.
Crazy.
So what was it?
Like, when you look back at that moment, like, of becoming so much more famous in such a
short period of time, like, when you look back at that, like, how do you feel about those
memories?
Because it's like, that's just such a rare thing for somebody to just explode overnight so
quickly.
Shit.
I look at it and I cherish you, know, Cap, I just, I like it.
Like, I just, like, I beholding it.
Like, I'd be putting it on.
I got sticking my plaque on the wall.
Look at the plaque.
Like, yeah, I did this shit.
That's crazy.
Yeah, that's so sick.
I remember, like, when Chapa started coming out, that my first reaction was like, oh, shit,
there's like a new kid dancing out of Memphis.
Like, I wonder how Black Boy is going to feel about that.
So I was actually pretty hyped when I saw that you guys have, like, developed this really cool friendship.
You didn't know him before the music shit?
I knew him before the music.
Oh, you did?
But not like close friend, buddy, but I said, that was my nigga.
Like, I used to do, like, them roast sessions on IG.
Like, I used to have, like, I used to invite people on the live and roast them.
We used to have, like, a checkout for us, whatever.
So he used to be, like, one of the main people that I used to always click on.
Like, if I see chopper, like, oh, big old chopper, click his name, and we'd just go with it.
Right.
So then I got his number.
We used to talk from, like, a period of time.
time like tics each other.
When he ticks me, I tics him back.
And then next thing he's like, you know, he blew.
I was shit, that boy turned.
Was it crazy seeing him blow up?
Yeah, yeah.
I was like, boy, you.
But he's still young, though.
That's why I'd be like, boy, this nigga is crazy.
And then I still got to tell him, like, you know,
sometimes he don't just know how much you got it.
They got to just tell him.
Yeah, like, did you have words of recommendations and stuff for him at that time?
Because, I mean, he, like, went through a very similar thing.
Being from the same place as you and just sort of blowing up.
in a short period of time.
Yeah, I had told them.
I had to tell them about like a lot of females and a lot of shit like that.
Like the game is real and then it's like a lot of niggas that's going to be like, oh yeah,
I'm, you're a nigger, but they just with you for the clout.
Like it's a lot of niggas just for the clout and you got to learn this shit.
You run into any bad situations with girls when you were first coming out and shit?
Yeah.
I had ran into a lot of situations, really, especially in Miami.
It's like, some females.
be always trying to like charge
your nigger and shit like that
I don't have
kick females out multiple times
like I can't buy no pussy
that's just me
I really I like
I had like two female
one time at the club I think it was at Lil
I got them they they
offered to come with me I ain't even
really wouldn't even looking at them
because I had already had a female
that I really did want it to
like fuck but
they came to me
and they and you know
I was standing to
Found Blue so you know this shit right there
it's all together
so I'm like come on come they like come
they want to come me so I take them to the room
it's two of them so like
both of them like
okay we get
to the room I get to touch it on them
they're like is you gonna take care
of me I'm like
what you mean? She's like what
am I getting out of it? I'm like
shit
dick like
like what else could I get you like and she like um well we we we we're here for the pleasure
but we won't we'm more than pleasure i'm like how you gonna get a nut and then get some money
for me i said you know what i i had i just kept quiet for a second and i just called the
the female that i've been with finner originally bring to my hotel and oob and i'm like
why would i fuck i got free pussy on the way and they were
They must have walked down the stairs and shit.
It was like, and the crazy part about it tried to make me walk them down the stairs.
So I walked them down the stairs like a gentleman.
Like, I walked down the stair, but I made sure I had my partner with me.
And we were like, we walking.
As soon as we get the walker down the, down the little, it's like a little hallway to go to the cars or whatever.
It's some Canada people.
It's some folks from Canada.
I don't, I know the voice.
I don't know if they were from Canada or London, it was some.
some foreign shit.
That's all I know.
And the females was foreign.
So I was like,
oh, these men are trying to do something.
So, like, they figured out there
I wasn't going to pay them,
so they were going to try to.
Right.
Yeah.
Wow.
Because that's what I was thinking.
I'm like, you're almost lucky
that they just tried to pay you
and didn't try to, like, rob you
or set you up or whatever.
No, but the crazy part about it,
my niggas was just coming out the club
because they was trying to get some females, too.
So that was in that science spot.
So we met up.
And when we met up, we were so down deep,
niggas was like
went the other way with the
bitch and I'm like, oh yeah
Holy fuck
Can you imagine if you were in that position
as a dude that that's the best hustle
that you got going is just to like send
girls into the club to try to fucking seduce
rappers and then you fucking swoop in there
that's crazy.
Yeah.
You've probably done some crazy shit
to get some money back in the day
but that's some other shit.
Yeah, there's some
bullshit.
That's hilarious, man.
I can't believe that.
Fuck. I'm so glad I've been in a relationship, man, so I didn't have to learn all these lessons the hard way.
So, I swear. That shit crazy. Eiffie, been crazy.
That is wild.
Have you had a girlfriend since you've, since you've blown up?
Mm-mm.
Can't do it?
I ain't saying I can't do it.
It just, I just really ain't, I don't, I got trust issues or something shit.
I ain't going to care if I'd be like, shit, if I get a girl right now, even if I pipe her up, even if I,
She ain't got no follows.
It don't even matter.
It's like, I cannot let nobody know this my girlfriend or because if somebody,
I let somebody know, everybody going to be able to.
And it's like, I'm insecure.
I got trust issues.
I ain't trying to, I'm going to be thinking about you the whole day.
I'm like, I really just have friends.
So if you really love the girl, you would want her to be very low-key and not out there
being a celebrity and shit?
Yeah, no.
Well, she can be a celebrity.
It just, I ain't going to lie.
we're gonna have to arrange some time
when we together all the times
because I ain't with that
rapping with other
like collabing
I gotta be there with y'all collabing
because I know how I think
when I'm in it's like
nah yeah no
but has the label ever tried to be like
yo we want you to you know
wipe up a Claremont twin or something
we're gonna get you hot
we gotta have a relationship story out there
you know one thing about it
they tell me that shit I ain't doing that shit
because I ain't even just no internet
that nigga like
that I don't be trying to troll or do shit.
Like, I want everything just to happen naturally.
You know what I'm saying?
It's crazy because, like, you see certain people, like, I think a money bag.
Like, he had a couple of high-profile relationships over the last year,
and the blogs love that shit.
Like, his music's hot.
He's killing it in general.
But, like, that just gives people something else to talk about you with
and, like, just a new storyline for them, you know?
Yeah, but that's true love.
That's true love.
And ain't no fake love.
I can't, I ain't just met nobody.
this you know and then at the same time I want a female this like if not getting the same amount of
money is me more or a little bit under or something like I don't want to be buying the girl
christend de yours shoes and and she buy me some joints right like that's that's just dumb like if
if I buy 10 pearl jordan's and she buy 10 pearl well if I buy her 10 per of de jordan she bought me 10 per of
joins I'm gonna be spending
well she's gonna be spending
2000 I'm probably spending like 10 racks
right like what's 10 racks
2,000 yeah it's gotta be kind of
odd to like be on completely
different levels but some rappers seem like
they're really into that like we were talking about that the other day
they like being the guy who buys a girl their first
expensive bag and shit shit not me
because I ain't trying to buy
no girl her first expensive bag
she should already have a expensive bag
what she's gonna give me like
You know what I'm saying?
Some females just be with a nigga till Valentine Day or just for Valentine Day.
And I feel like on Valentine Day, shit, it's a, what is Valentine Day?
Just to ask, I'm asking you.
What is it?
It's a stressful day where I have to think of something to get my girlfriend to make you happy.
No, no, no, what I'm saying?
Like, besides it.
Oh, yeah, it's totally made up.
It's a meaning of love or something.
What's the celebration, right?
It's of love, right?
So we both love each other.
Don't both were supposed to be getting gifts?
Yeah.
not just you.
I remember at school,
girls had to give gifts too.
Everybody had to give candy bags.
Yeah, that's real.
I remember when it was
the little boxers of candy,
heart and shit.
What happened to that?
Everybody used to get that.
Girls had to get their prison away too.
So it's like,
when we get older,
they stop and not it's just for the girl.
No, it's not just for the girls.
It's for the man, too.
Don't just thank you for to give me some pussy.
And I've been getting this pussy for three, four, five months.
It's like,
I ain't know what different way you can put it on me if I've been getting that long.
You ever felt like you were getting just finessed for a Valentine's Day gift?
Shit, that's why I ain't even been talking to no female.
I ain't even had no female.
I ain't bought no Valentine's gift.
I've been on like, shit.
My mom's probably good Valentine's Day gift.
Shit.
Does that mean a lot to you?
How your parents are proud of you and shit?
Yeah, yeah.
My dad's stealing jail.
He'd be caught me and shit.
Really?
Crazy.
Because you know behind the bars, behind the walls, he's Blot Boy, J.B.'s dad.
he gets to like level up as a result of that is that like
does he ever acknowledge that or like is that that's that must be a weird
dynamic maybe that nigger that nigger that nigger I mean I heard you tell
some wild stories about him on Vlad and all that shit yeah that nigga that nigga I
be calling him out like dad whoop your ass he if he get his phone he ain't finn't
he ain't feeling just not call me one time he gonna call me three four times
blow my ass up. I'm like,
Dad, you need to call my mama.
You call me too much.
Right. Do you know when he's going to get out?
Or you have an idea of when that could happen?
It can happen any day. Not really.
To be honest, he got some shit that's moving
on his case.
He's supposed to be out of jail, really,
because the police officer who arrested him
was a feeling. Really?
Like, you can't even arrest nobody.
Oh, shit. Yeah, because
you told that craziest story on Vlad. I was watching
last night about your dad. What was it,
Lambo? He pulled up in a fucking...
No, not no Lambo. It wasn't a Lambo. It was a jag.
Right.
Yeah, they motherfuckin' look like Lambo. You can say that.
Because I ain't know nothing about no limbo.
Right. I was playing midnight club double dish.
He just pulled up and then you never saw him again. How long was that though?
Right. I say probably like 10.
Nah, this shit been a long time. This should be like 13 years now.
Right.
13, I don't know. Long got a time, really.
For sure. When you go back to.
Memphis like you must feel like a real serious fucking hometown hero like does that mean a lot too
and what what is the vibe like when you when you spend how much time do you spend that
shit I won't really just go to Memphis like that to be honest because I'm I'm scared of the
police them things me on that bullshit so I just be trying to stay out of the way until I get
out my legal issues out the way with Memphis and then I go back out there until then I'm just
I go there when I go there everybody show me love though everybody show me love I ain't got to worry about
nothing. But it's like,
I'm the thing I'm going to worry about as the police.
And I don't, and I got a ride
with a file on regardless, and I ain't trying.
Right. You're not allowed to out there. And it's pretty much,
you know, you're just not safe if you don't move around like that.
So, yeah.
They're going to tell you you you need to get security.
It's like, how am I going to have security in my hometown?
Mm-hmm. Crazy.
But, yeah, so wait, you got raided in Memphis at one point, right?
Yeah.
Because there was, like, a couple different arrests that, like,
Is there any movement on that or whatever ended up actually happened with those situations?
That's the case that I'm on getting, like, that's what I'm going to court for right now.
I'm almost over with the shit.
I'm trying to get the shit done.
Like, I just went to court.
Like, last month they told me I got a time served for my shit and all there.
I was just like, hold on.
But what my money is?
They didn't really get my money.
They owe me $40,000.
They took coming or taking my money.
I ain't from just let them get my money.
And arrest me.
So you have 40,000 cash on you at the time that they got you?
No, they ran in two times and took, like, really they ran in three times,
but they came and took money two times.
Like, I had moved out the other house they had ran in, moved to another house.
The first time they took, like, about, I say, like, 17,000,
and then the next time after that, it was, like, probably, like, I said, like, 14 or something.
shit like that. Right. So probably like, it was about 30, 30 or something like that.
And that whole case was just about you having weed and guns?
Shit, yeah. And I wouldn't even at the house.
What the fuck? But you think that was definitely some shit where they were like just targeting
you all of a sudden you're the new famous guy in town. It was the same police every time.
And then when they ran and when they got me they were like, no Memphis in May for you, bitch.
I'm like, damn, y'all. I want me to perform at Memphis in May.
Damn, that's fucking crazy. But like, I mean, there's a lot of Memphis rappers who seem like,
you know, Goddy spends time.
out there right and they don't seem to get on his ass too bad they got to know how to move out there
see me got it we got it don't just he don't just go outside or nothing like he'll he'll pull up to his
spots and his spots is legit like legit spots my spots are still like I ain't legit
they're motherfuck I be at dope houses and shit god ain't going to pull up no dope palsy if he especially
if you know they're motherfuck ain't clean like them niggins ain't moving right my niggas move all type of
Yeah, it's like you're somebody who's kind of like avoiding that reality of like oh, I got to move like a different type of guy now like God. God he's probably just accepted that a long time ago because, you know, he's just been having money and success for so long that he's just learned the lesson, I guess.
Yep. It's like time to learn. I'm learning too. Right. I'd be up in the trap. I'd be up in the trap. I'm like, I can't be here too long. This shit.
And here, not too many people pulling up. Right.
Every time I get the dough swings
When at a time I'm out
I ain't trying to be there too long
I feel like something happened
Yeah in general
Like once you get to a point of celebrity
I think that it's very smart to always
Just be in and out like
You can pull up somewhere you could be around somewhere
For 10, 20 minutes but as soon as you just are chilling
For hours and hours you're kind of like a sitting duck
At a certain point
Yeah
The mall shopping all this shit
I'd be feeling like that like man
I ain't gonna lie
Nigger need
Knicker can't be sitting still right here
and his fucking stow like me gotta move around they ain't from the pole he or some statue we got to
go like yeah got to get out of here and you don't know who just peep that you were there and just
hit their homies up on the phone to be honest i don't really be current i just don't like to be on i
just really know people person like that to be honest i only fuck with my like the people i want to
fuck with you i'm gonna fuck with you but i don't just too much like people in my face like that
to be honest it's cool but at times it get annoying
and I'd be like, I gotta get out.
So if I'm in tomorrow and I know I know motherfuckers gonna,
if somebody notice me, want a picture, I gotta go.
Because as soon as I take this picture,
I know it's gonna be another picture.
Mm-hmm.
Like, I gotta run.
Yeah, I feel you.
One other thing about your initial coming out
is that was kind of the first time
that everybody heard Tay Keith.
You're still working with him and shit.
What's your relationship like?
Are you guys still cool just like back in the day?
Hell yeah.
I just, what I'm on.
He was just got hurt.
probably like two days ago
shit we're gonna make
like a deluxe but it's gonna be like
a take heat edition so since
I only had one beat up on there with take heat
I'm put like
scrape take heat and I might just
throw some features on them joints just in case
just because like
whoever we just really feel like they should be
on these songs or you know
I'm like oh yeah I put him on that
you know you thought about that though
is like just doing full projects with them
because like you know there's a lot of there's a lot of value
I think in that, like, when people see 21 in Metro, like, doing a whole project together,
that, like, really gives people something to get excited about because they've seen that chemistry before, you know?
Yeah, so that's going to basically be.
It's going to be, like, probably, like, 10 songs.
10 songs, me and Turkey, only, on the deluxe.
That's fire.
Yeah.
It's been wild to see him blowing up.
Yeah, yeah, it's my boy.
You proud of him?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm proud of everybody.
Right.
I'm proud of everybody doing their thing.
It ain't been no fucking n'
That's real
One thing that
Oh yeah
Okay
We gotta talk about
The dance a little bit too
Like what
That's just crazy
Like it's still so big
You still see it on TikTok
So much
Yeah I just think
This shit
Oh I'm like
These nizek
These nudge
These nudge
I just think
The gentleman
Like they had like a thing
With the brunt
When they want
To have
The brunt
I'm doing it
I'm like
Oh my god
These ninc is still doing
It's crazy
Right
I'm like this shit
I don't know
I don't have
I don't have to
I don't have made up
but new dance I ain't even know I was doing on fable like what the fuck it did right there I need to learn how to do that
What so you got some new stuff that you were doing without even realizing you were doing that?
Mm-hmm
Yeah it was like I was doing some shit like this on my stomach
Yeah, this hard
Do you keep up on any of the dance stuff like are you actually interested to see what people are doing dance wise?
Because I feel like a lot of that shit with you and your homies dancing in the old videos was just kind of like just super raw like
Like just shit that you guys just randomly were doing
Yeah, I still be looking right now.
I just be looking like some, I don't want to say no bullshit, but like, after the 10K with the whoa,
I ain't just saying too much just nothing good.
Like, I did the clutch, like the jump right here.
I got everybody doing this shit.
Oh, yeah, that was another one.
Yeah, but I'm trying to see what's the next dance.
Like, what's the next move motherfuckers going to be doing?
Right.
There ain't just no, okay, let's make a song, a dance song, and just hurry up and they're rushing it.
It definitely feels like people are trying too hard sometimes, right?
I got to do it.
Do one simple move.
These motherfuckers doing the whole dance, I'm saying?
You make you...
You know what I'm saying?
Like, no.
Yeah, that's facts.
Okay, one thing that I saw that I was pretty amused by
is that you got it in with the 6-9 on the timeline briefly.
He dissed you, and you said,
don't at me if you ain't on no gangster shit,
which I thought was a pretty good way for you to shut down that argument.
Like, I'm not even talking to you on that goofy shit.
Yeah.
Because basically, that's just it.
Like, I don't even want to just get into it with nobody.
I don't even be on internet shit, though.
Like, if I ever been to it with somebody,
I just want to see him.
Like, I ain't even, I might just DM them and be like,
I ain't gonna like, just meet me.
I would never post it or nothing.
I'd be like, just, just, I'd be like,
meet me somewhere.
We can fight.
If you ain't gonna do that, it ain't, like,
niggas don't even fight no more.
Niggas be ready to shoot.
I like fighting.
I like fighting, but I shoot too,
but I'm still the fighter.
I'd be ready to.
fight so I want to be ready to fight don't even be on no shit with me so you would still
squash a problem with somebody like if you had an issue with somebody in memphis or somebody that
you would you know sort of cool with or whatever like that's still within the realm of
possibility that you can just sort of meet up and just shoot the fair one in the backyard yeah i still
me and my niggas be fight we have altercation all the time we always fight like if you'll be
around you like man these oh this is this close for them fight sometimes it go there and
licks get swan and sometimes it don't but it's just
And we shake hands out there.
And we stand, that's how we do it.
I respect that.
I ain't just fighting no random thing on the street though, no cap.
Yeah.
I ain't, because I don't know what's gonna come.
I'll fight a rapper though.
I don't fight a rapper.
Really?
Because we both got shit to lose, so why would we just, you know,
try to go shoot it out and we can just fight?
You ever do a celebrity boxing match?
That'd be tight.
Yeah, yeah.
Damn.
Maybe you could set that up.
Yeah, when YK was doing this shit,
that was talking this shit.
That nigga went trying to do nothing.
I was like, uh, that cat.
You didn't jump in on that conversation, you tried to line one up?
No, he, he said he was going to do some shit, but that nigga, that nigga ain't
do shit.
He, he knows, like, that nigga was like, I want to boss you, want to pass you.
I was like, okay, well, you're on me that.
You want to box everybody else, but you don't want to box me.
That's what Snapdog said, too.
Snapdog said that, like, he just wasn't, he wasn't trying to actually meet up with
Snapdog.
Like, he just made it clear, like, nah, bro, I fuck with you.
I ain't really trying to do that.
You fuck with anybody you boxing though, right?
Yeah.
You fuck with you?
Yeah, that's better.
To me, the fact that you have such close friends
that you could actually, like, fist fight
and then still continue to be cool
really says a lot about, like, the depth of your friendship, though,
because I'm going to be real.
Like, I feel like if I fought pretty much anyone in this room,
it would just be unbelievably awkward,
and I don't know if we'd go back to being cool after.
Laura, I'm not going to fight you.
It's not happening.
One thing about it, if I fight, we fight, I'm like,
I'm gonna be the, I'm gonna try to be the man.
Like if I got it, if it, if I know I'm the aggressor
and I know I'm booishing, I'm gonna be the man.
I'm gonna say, my bad, bro.
I'm gonna shake your hand.
But other than that, I ain't, if you're the aggressor,
you're supposed to be a man and you're over here doing all that booish?
Like, after the fight, you want to go crazy and keep talking shit.
We're gonna keep fighting.
Like, and then when you get done, I'm gonna try to stop it still.
Like, oh, yeah.
At least you didn't do no.
weird shit, we go get a gun,
and we niggas. That's how we solve
our problems, you know, I'm supposed to stop being
cooge that could we fight? It's crazy, though, because
now when you see a fight, like, Max O'Creme
and Rizzo Rizzo fought, and the parking
lot, people could not believe that they fought.
Because they know how it is in Texas,
there's like, people just, you know,
people shoot at each other. Like,
people were shocked to see that they were like,
they had a problem, but they were still
cool enough that they would just
have a little fight and be over it.
That was cool. I looked there. I was like, yeah,
you knickers, it's squabble.
I woke up in the morning, like, oh, my God, these both are fighting.
I didn't even know that was in tune.
I was like, what happened?
You both of my niggas?
I'm like, this is crazy.
Yeah, that was a pretty, I think that was, that's set a good example.
I don't know if people are really going to follow that example.
I remember, like, we're on Slim Duncan and Woo the Kid.
Right.
I used to watch them, niggas.
I used to watch this shit somewhere.
Like, God, them, they used to fight.
They used to fight back then, but they don't do that shit now.
It's like a new age.
Yeah, everybody don't want them.
Yeah.
Gucci said that him and Walker had like multiple real deal fist fights back in the day,
which I'm sure there was not a camera around, but if there was,
valuable footage.
I would love to see that.
That's the problem.
That's why people don't fight no more, really.
But they scared of the cameras.
And once the cameras get in and know their footage get on the internet
and it never leave, like you can tell your label to take the footage down
long as they don't make it down.
You can't take it down, so it's going to be there forever.
We've basically seen people lose their whole career.
off again, punched, knocked out,
had the chain taking one time.
And like, it's some people that are happy to them
and it's all good, but some people, if your whole image
is that you're a tough gangster-ass dude
and then they see you get punked,
it shatters the illusion and everything changes.
One thing about me, I'd be like,
I feel like if you get your chain snats
and you got like,
if you got your Cubans or some shit there,
it ain't no snatch.
Like, niggas can,
You can get to a fight and you can just reach and just grab and it snatch it off and it'd be like, oh yeah, you get the snout.
But you really ain't get the snatches.
You fought.
But the whole thing is snatching.
Yeah, that's the change snatching technicalities of like that shit could just get ripped off of you so fast in a fight.
That's why if I feel like I'm going to be in the area, it's going to be a fight.
I'm just going to keep my crib and on because you can snatch you.
But then you're going to have to take my neck with me.
And it's different too when you get your check.
chain taking and it's a big ass fucking logo, black boy JV type shit, you know, and then you
get that shit took it?
That's a different type of thing.
Yeah, no.
Especially when they let it do the hood tour.
I was just going neck to neck.
I ain't going to where.
I might, that might be the day I crash out.
I ain't going to mean that.
For real?
I might just kill somebody.
Yeah, you don't think you could handle it?
I ain't going to, I might just crash out because I don't know how to take it.
I don't know what I'm going to do.
Like, it took something for me.
He went live and I know exactly who he is.
I know his folks, somebody going to have to die.
No cap.
I respect it, man.
Yeah.
And I ain't, because I ain't even the type of a dick.
I ain't even the type of a nigga.
You just want to do something to you.
Kids love me.
Everybody love me.
I'm going to shake your hand.
I'm going to say, what's up to everybody.
I'm going to check the move.
I check the temperature too.
I'm like, I'm like, what's up?
I'll say, if it don't matter who it is, I'm going to say it.
It's like, everybody in hand, back, what's up?
It could be the gangsters nigga in the room.
I'm like, yeah, what's up?
Come talk to you.
See what you on see what your mood is because if you don't shake my hand in a
In a matter of sickness and I see the hesitation or something I know you want some bullshit
I hear it man yeah block away j be for president you ever think about that
I feel like you could do some big things yeah you just spread a very good
message and energy you know I feel like whenever block boys around it could do good things for the country
yeah well can do good things for the country that's real um what else do they need to know
about the new projects, which I love it personally.
I've been jamming out to it all morning.
Shit.
This project was really about, it's my nickname Fat Boy, so I used to be fat.
Really?
How fat?
Shit, I saved probably like 100, when I was like 8.
When you were 8, you were 100 pounds.
Yeah.
That's like a little heavy sit.
So, like, after the time, I was just playing sports and shit.
And after that, niggas just started growing.
Right.
Body started looking good.
That's hard.
Much respect.
I never would have thought that you would have been a fat dude.
I thought it was just like an ironic album title.
Actually, watching that video made me really want to go rewatch some old fat Albert shit
because I ain't seen it since I was a little kid.
Yeah.
I'm going to make a video like to be a big.
PJs next.
Remember the PJs?
Yeah, a little bit.
I don't know if I ever actually watched it.
PJs?
You got to go back and look at that.
I just watch Boomerane.
Boomerang?
Yeah.
That's cool.
So I just want to throw that out there.
I was pissed off when he's got the lady in the backyard yelling at him when he's
bringing girls over.
Just airing his shit out.
That had me upset.
