Yeah, you feel me? The homie different now, come. Yeah, you get me. You see him leaning back? He leaning back. Yeah, yeah. His response is like real rapid. rapper shit, girl.

Yeah, real, you know what I'm saying? Your responses is real rap, you know what I'm saying? I want to get into my first question right off the bat, you know what I'm saying? I just really wanted to ask you. I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time. Why the fuck you didn't put that song out, you know what I'm saying, with me and you wrote it? Because you was, you was trash, d'n, yeah. T.

No, no, no. He went to the first woman boy and my, my thing didn't put it out. You had the right his shit? No, look, let me tell you. Let me tell you, right? I'm the one who was really pushing him to keep rapping. Okay, yeah. You feel me?

I had to force the nigga to come to the lab. We get to the lab, boom. You know, matter of fact, we just talked about that album earlier. That's the album that's coming. Oh, so you put me on that? Yeah, that's still in the works. Oh, yes, sir. That's still in the works.

I think bro should get back into it. No, real. Because he wasn't, bro actually was decent. Yeah. He's nice. You know what I'm saying? He's nice. He's on the shockers.

Silk, hey, Simp, when I, Silk used to be my favorite rapper as he did, you feel me? But no, like, yeah, but when you hear the song, it's like, yeah, I kept telling him like, bro, you gotta keep busing. Yeah, I mean, that shit, like, what, two years? Three years? That shit, like, two and a half years. That shit come out this year.

That's, I don't know. I got to read this. It was a bunch, you know, you know, a bunch of little stuff in, in between all that and all that, but, yeah, everything's smoothed out now. Yeah, man, tell them about yourself, man, where you grew up, where you from? You know what I'm saying? From a little kid, then now what you got? Let me see you.

I initially, a nigga was born in Sacramento, feel me? I was born in Sacramento. I was always back and forth out here, you know, from L.A. to back out there up north. My father's, like a full-blood Indian. You feel me? Oh, so you're really not from the 50s. You're from Sacramento.

I'm from the killer. But the niggins, I'm born out there. Explain to him with the killer. The killer, man, that's right there where it's really everything scandalous. Like, the definition of that is what it means. You feel me? Like, now that's why I put that on the end of every verse. Yeah.

I'm killing every verse. You feel, me? Killers. That's why I like you though, bro. Because you always say everything's scandalous. And where I come from, we say, we call our shit land of the scoundless. You feel what I'm saying? I was like, I like this, nigger, man.

Yeah, everything is scandalous, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. You got Kansas on your back. Kansas on my back and Scalance on my back. I've been carrying Kansas for a minute. Then before I got a tatty. So, you know, I've been having that on my back since we was kids.

You feel me? And then a bunch of, you know. So from Sacramento on to the 50s, when did you, like, actually, like, be permanent, like, I'm from the 50s, and this is what I'm doing? I grew up in the other side, really. I grew up on Vernon and mother, like Vernon in 42nd. So you were in him.

Sheesh. Oh, Killer, we're going to have to get this thing. So he's from Sacramento. He's from Sacramento. No, I ain't really, I'm from Sacramento. That's where I just fell out. I just fell out in Sacramento. Okay.

And then they just bowed me down to the killer. He's like, it was weird. And then, but yeah, I grew up right there, like, fifth grade, I moved to the land. And it's been over since then. And then I spent probably like, what, like the whole, my whole elementary and junior high in Watts. So I was living in Watts. I was living on the killer. What school did you went to in Watts?

Gompers. Oh, Gompers is a terrible school. Yeah. So you really everything scantoms. That scound. I got kicked out. The only reason I probably would have been from Watts. But I got kicked out because I kicked off a riot.

I kicked off a riot at Gompers with the South Lows. Oh, you really with the shit. Yeah, they kicked me out the district. Kick me out the district, so now I couldn't even... Because really, Bang was living on the East Side. Bang really, really East Side of Bang. So I was spending the night at his spot every... Like, I was going to school with him, but I was still living on the killer.

And I was just... We would just go back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And then, like, my eighth grade year, I got kicked out the district for that. And then... Shit, I went to the time. here then it was over so once you got the John mirror you know what I'm saying you like you know what this another bad school you're saying another terrible right John mirror like this fine different whole things right there when did you

decide you know what I'm gonna just be from trouble this flurs was lit first was too lit the homies is like here man y'all are doing too much yeah y'all doing too much man tell him about man how the 50s is kind of like a you know kind of like a family oriented like her like a set you feel me like everything thing ain't always like, I mean, it is the killer, it is everything, scantless, but overall, you feel me? Like, I feel like the majority of how we grew up,

nigga, you know what I'm saying? It was way more positive than negative. Nah, yeah, for real. Before all, before all that, like I said, we was all pushing that flirt shit. Like, we had just busing all the bras. You feel me, we're going from school to school, cracking

all the bras and all that. You know, we was from sports. He was playing ball. Yeah. But we were just gang thick. So we're pulling up at all the things, you know. Then we start striking up on walls and it was over with. But other than that, everybody that's from the land, they got family in the land. You feel me?

Like him and his brother, me, bang, my little brother, like my whole family from where I'm at. Feeling me, his whole family from where we at. So now it's like, it got to the point where it's like, man, where you came from. Like, we don't even... Yeah, it wasn't no outsiders. Yeah, like, who was your peoples? Like, who was your peoples? And it wasn't...

Like, so we all grew up together, and then everybody just started doing their own thing, you know, and... You know, and then, shit. I guess you just start busing. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? So, once you start doing that shit, you know what I'm saying? Like, what brought you to that road

where you like, you know what? I'm gonna really do some stupid-ass shit, you know what I'm saying? Because I just really want to bring this shit up. I'm going right to the government. So, because my boy really is crazy before we get on the music tip, you know what I'm saying? I want to know why my boy robbed a bank, you know what I'm saying?

Like, what the fuck was going on in your head? You know what I'm saying? Press the button, do, do. He didn't do it. Like, T.F. didn't do it, girl. He didn't do it. Like, bro, you're in the house.

You're just like, you know what? Let's rob that bank. Nah, I mean, one of the homies bring it up. And at the time, I'm like, I'm like, why not? Let's go. I mean, we are here, I'm out here doing everything else.

Like, so I was just thinking, like, man, if I'm out here doing this, I might not never come home doing what I'm doing. Yeah. I could go hit this bank and be out in the field and get, have some chili, like, waiting on me coming back, but, you know, it didn't go like that. They ended up going down high-speed chases and all that, you know. And you went down. You went to prison?

Nah, I didn't go to prison, but I got tried as an adult. I did, like, a year in the county. when I was like 15, 16. Damn, how did that go, being in a minor out there with all the fucking crazy ass, a dope buff-ass niggas in that motherfucker? No, they have you juvenile lockdown.

Juvenile lockdown, you got like 23, 23 hours down, and then you get like an hour out to shower and use the phone and all that type. But yeah, like, it was really tricky in there. Like, the top tier, like, probably like this big. Probably like this big. So on your way to the shower, you've got to go past probably 12 different sales before you get to the shower and use the phone.

So if somebody's tripping, they're going to get at you. You're a real one, though. You know what I'm saying? Like, so in the rap game, niggas be like, man, I'm a real one. I did this. I did that. You know what I'm saying? Especially in Los Angeles, California, man.

Did you ever encounter any of these niggas, you know what I'm saying, in the county or the PIN that's rapping right now? Go ahead and say A.D. or Mark? You know what I'm saying? It's okay. No, no, no. I ain't going to lie. I ran to a few people's. I ran into a few people's.

And if I didn't, I ran into some people's who they're good peoples. And they're like, yeah, they're solid. Who you ran up and who you ran into? I ain't going to put nobody out there like that. Man, nigger who you run into in that motherfucker, brother? Matter of fact, it's my boy, dough boy, man. My boy dope boy, right? So I running to him on the yard.

We're on a four yard. four yard this year down the line after that county jail shit so yeah we on the four yard running to him and uh he thought was a blood so he think I'm a blood because you know I got a gang of red ink tatted yeah we out we out bussing we bussing down on the yard I'm with all the blackstones feel me so clearly automatically thought I was one of them so I'm like he's like oh what's up whoa this crib yeah feel we he's like oh man my bad whooty, why, why, why, but after that, like, we was cool.

Bused down every day until the nigga got shipped out. I ended up going to Oklahoma after that. They kind aired me up out of there, chained up. Chained up to get me up out of there. So, but when I got out, I ended up running into my boy, Polly Rob. Family Child, Polly Rob, too, local astronauts, you know. But, yeah, I ran into him, and we end up doing some music. Like a few years later, like down the line.

line like me and him already got a good relationship I ran in a dough boy I'm like bro like what's up man how long you've been out when you you know what you're doing up here he's so what age did you like really like start rapping you feel me and then start taking it serious shit when I went down when you went down what what 16 no no no no no no no shout to probably robbed too man yeah I was still tripping I was still tripping I was still tripping I was still nah I didn't really stop tripping until I was 28 Damn. You feel we?

That was after like two other terms and stuff like that. But by the end, I was really rapping, rapping by then. But that's when I had to like really just kick back. But yeah, that's how, so back to the Polly Rob thing, I'm working with Polly Rob, and to give to what you're asking. They get to what you asking because I'm like, damn. So I'm with Polly Rob and the niggie Doe Boy walk in. So I'm like, damn, I ain't seen you since we was on the Yucin.

yard. Like, what you doing up here? He's like, this is my best friend. Talking about Polly Rob, so I'm like, damn. And shit, we've been, we've been rocking together since then. That was in probably like 2015, 2015, I ran back in the dope, nah, not that late, probably 2014. Maybe 2014. Yeah, probably 2014-15. I ran back in the dope boy. But like I said, when I met him, I was in the PIN. You know, so then, In there, that's when I start rapping. Off my last term, I was just rapping, rapping, rapping, rapping, rapping, rapping,

connecting with other gang members, you know what? Was that, like, your first indication to where you was just thinking about, you know what, this gang banging shit, you know what I'm saying? Ain't going to really take me far, you feel me? I really got to connect with the world, you know what I'm saying,

to be able to do this shit. Nah, to be, to be honest, in near, I connected with all the enemies first. Yeah. You feel? Because, you know, in the county, you get there and everybody want to pay. pack shit out.

I'm telling niggas, I'm like, nah, y'all get that niggas head up. Niggas was mad. Like, no, me, let's pack him out. I'm like, nah. Like, nigga, if you ride with me, I need to make sure that you could be able to you feel me, like we both could

get up out of this if it get ugly. So if you can't fight just one motherfucker, it's like, I don't even really trust you like that. To be behind me. Yeah. You know, so and, and, and people's from the other

side they respected that and it was like you know and that that traveled way longer than just being a a nigger where I'm at and where I'm from you know because like everybody gonna love you already if you're doing what you're doing already but if you could transition and still keep a trill on the back end you know when it's ugly ugly when you ain't got none of the the utensils you really using out in the streets and you still keep it solid like that like yeah they ain't gonna respect that and they're gonna love it I mean, I'm glad you're saying that, you know what I'm saying?

Because if y'all don't know, man, these trouble niggas is UFC niggas. They do karate, you know what I'm saying? They do gymnastics. These niggins is wild, you know what I'm saying? They take fighting serious as a motherfucker. They're boxing. So I know if you niggas ever got headups, y'all probably got your ass whoop, you know what I'm saying, nine times out of ten, you know what I'm saying? RIP my nigga gay because he was that nigga too, you know what I'm saying, doing that shit, you feel?

But I was, I don't know who the fuck you're talking about. Yeah, because he was doing his thing, was bike riding. was doing all the whole little shit and I really didn't know what Cud was Tom doing and shit. Yeah. That was a minute ago, though, when he used to be talking about, dude. Like, uh, because I was, you know, I had Gabe in the studio, too. I had punching the studio, too, rapping.

I'm actually talking to you, you know, on that nigga platform. That's the sickest shit on Earth, you know what I'm saying? And I always think about that, you know what I'm saying. I'm real big on spirits and shit like that.

A lot of people need to know more about you, you know what I'm saying? We're going to use this platform for niggas to know, you feel me? Because you've been doing your thing musically. All, you respect it all around in the industry, for sure. You know what I'm saying?

You Grammy nominated. Let's just get the, Just get that out of the way. You know what I'm saying? Yes, sir. You gram me nominated. On some crib shit though. Yeah, on some crib shit, you know what I'm saying?

On Schoolboy Q, you know what I'm saying? Tookie nose. Tuggy nose. My nigga was on that album. That video crazy. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? He was on that album. He'd be doing his thing.

You know what I'm saying? Shout out of traffic too, man. Yeah, shout my dog traffic, man. Why you think you ain't getting any exposure? You know what I'm saying? You're supposed to be getting out here? Your bitch ass take forever to give me an interview, nigga.

That's why, I just got on this. You put a fucking super ever to put me on the fucking platform. You feel me, damn. I don't look at it as, as, it took forever.

Like, it's, you know, it's perfect timing. You know, like, because right now, where I'm at, what I'm doing right now,

like my mindset different. Like, you feel me? When I first started rapping, I was, I was still on, I was still in the streets. Yeah,

feel me? I didn't even really care about rapping. Like, I was, I'm still with the homies, We slined through. Like, I remember people used to tell me, hey, T.L. pull up to this, pull up to this, pull up to this,

but don't bring them, don't bring them. And I'm like, man, I got, like, bringing the homies. Yeah. I mean, I'm bringing the homies. And they got to the point where it was just like, like, damn, I start realizing once they start going to jail, they start working out. I don't want to say, like, you know,

it kind of happened, like how it happened. But I wasn't going to never tell them not to come. Yeah, they couldn't come. You feel me? You can't tell the homies. I wasn't going to never do that. Yeah, you know, just me being who I am, but they just all end up going to jail, and then they just start working out and start working out.

I start pulling up Dolo, I'm pulling up Dolo, I'm meeting different people's, and then at the same time, I was still kind of like straddling the fence with the street shit. So it was just one event. I ain't wrapped in probably like six months. I'm just doing what I was doing, like, you know, busting my little moves and shit. So I'm like, damn, I'm going to go to the lab. where i go to the studio i get a call like six in the morning i stayed there all night too from like probably like eight to like till i got the call like i got the call like six in the morning

they're like man they just ready at the house took everybody and i'm like damn and i got they feel me my my situation a little different from everybody so if i get caught i'm going damn yeah you feel me so they can find this and that and this and that and this and that but I ain't there, so it's like... If that ain't signed, I don't know what it is. Nah, for real, like, you know, I ain't gonna... Yeah. So, uh...

So, yeah, I'm in the studio, all this happened. I'm like, damn, start rapping. Because I was already rapping, but I really wasn't, like, taking that shit serious. And then once the niggas spot got raided, I came back and the whole, bro, the door was like,

from, from this little piece right here to this corner. That's how they snatched the door off. They snatched off the door and then more pieces, like a whole other foot outside of the bars on from the top to the bottom to the sides. He yanked everything off. There was like a whole walkway, like the sides of this table.

Now walk, I got home and it was like, damn, they really yanked the walls off this motherfucker. I'm like, yeah, I'm standing in the studio. Kept rhyming, kept rhyming, then, boom, squabble up here. Yeah. And we did squabble up. Then that hit and then that got the, you know, AD was on that album, that first, that, uh, shout out Adrian Swiss, too, man.

Child out of Adrian Swiss, man. Tap me in on that, uh, the first, that, that Bloods and Crip album. I forgot which, uh, which addition it was, but one of them joints with the squabble up on it. And, uh, off that, G. Perico reached out. And then we tapped in. Bro, that to me, that's the best verse, bro, you ever did it. You went crazy on that motherfucker. Yeah, I do that on here you want.

My nigga went crazy. Yeah. Go crazy. That was crazy. So just from that point, once I was like, damn, like, I can't do it. I can't do it because I'm gonna be gone gone. You feel me? Like, and if it ain't gone, going, I'm still be, I'm gonna have a little stretch for show.

So I just kicked back on everything and just kept rapping. Yeah, like my boy, AD was saying, you know what I'm saying? Like, we front of 50s, like, I've seen your demeanor change. I've seen a lot of my demeanor change too, because I really was like, Scalice. Like he'd be calling me Grimy. Grimy. Like I really, you know what I'm saying, didn't give a fuck, you know what I'm saying until I kind of got in the music industry and I kind of seen how it was moving and what we was doing and like work and, you know what I'm saying, take you. So I know for sure, like, I know you got a different perspective on shit. Like,

you know what I'm saying? Like, how you feel about doing like records with enemies and shit? Uh, I got, I got a few records with, uh, I got a record with my boy from, uh, from 60s. My boy, Do the Fresh kid. Yeah. Feel me? He's from 6-0. And, you feel I mean? And it's crazy because when I met him initially,

same thing happened when I ran in a doughboy. So I go to the studio. This is my first time meeting him, too. Get to the studio and I run into my boy weed dog from 60s. I was on the yard with. Yeah. We had a whole situation in there, like on some. You feel me?

But when I seen him, it was respect because it was, it was respect when it happened. Like, it was like, nah, we're going to get it right. Y'all do it like this. It's just y'all too. Y'all go do that and that's that. And kept it like that, you know, but niggas was ready to rock. And the niggas seen that.

And then, you know, that shit just transpired and spilled into the streets. And when I ran into him, it was love. And he's like, oh, dope. Like, yeah, he's solid for show. Like, you know, and it was vice versa. So you was a fan in MC? His later music. his later music, not really when he was,

I was in a pen when niggins was listening to Nipsey. Yeah. So I'm hearing that, I'm like, I'm like, man, y'all are gonna kick something up. I know because, I mean. He was talking crazy when he first fell in, you see me? I'm like, I ain't listening to that, that. But then once, you know, like I was hearing his growth.

And at the same time, I was, when I was coming in, like, so I'm listening and listening. But I had always listened, but I never really wasn't a fan. until that K-Camp track he dropped. I think it was mailbox money. Yeah. Like, that was the one line.

That's a banger. And then from there, I listened to a few more records and a few more records. And then by then, I'm listening to Victory laughing. I'm like, this nigga, dope. But by then, he did a whole, you know, he did a whole big 360 with his music and, like, who he was with his community and all that. He was, you know, he was dope. Yeah, that's what I was going to get to.

You know what I'm saying. He did his whole little thing. and he transitioned, you know what I'm saying? He was willing to do, you know, some certain little things. And he was business minding, you know what I'm saying, entrepreneur. He was doing shit for his city. Like, he was doing shit for his community. Like, and that's how we all got to be.

Like, and that's why I feel like music should take you, you know what I'm saying. It should transition you into that. You know what I'm saying? Like, some artists it don't. And I feel like, you know what I'm saying? Like I said, you'd be unappreciated because I don't think you ain't out there giving the gimmicks and doing all the bulls. You know what I'm saying you got the homies behind you dissing the set and all the whole you know what I'm saying bullshit

So how you feel about like niggas like CMAC with the with the set diss on their head and then like Like a babystone gorillas are saying you know what I'm saying fuck crabs and all the whole little shit in their music Like how you think you know what I'm saying like what like what words you got for them you know what I'm saying I mean uh I know them I know them babystone nigg you know that's that's just they thing you feel me like you know they they really they really that yeah you feel me they really that like if you see them it's like it's just really what they be talking about you feel me but the other I the other niggie just yeah man that nigg is a clown man you feel me like that niggas a that niggas a that niggas a that's all i really got to say about that yeah you feel like all the homies

just be kind of like you know pushing it off like I mean I think uh if it's a little rocker or He might be kind of slow. You know what I'm saying? But I'll be feeling like, you know what I'm saying? You're a real rapper because you feel? And I feel like in Los Angeles, you kind of like got a tie to bullshit in. You know what I'm saying? And you're not like kind of, that ain't your whole little thing.

You know what I'm saying? You're real creative with your rap, your videos. You know what I'm saying? You be doing your thing, you feel I'm like? And you'd be directing your own videos or, you know what I'm saying? 50-50 with your people. You know what I'm saying? Like, where that inspiration come from?

Man, I said, just. Really, just watching movies, really? Just watching movies. And I spent maybe eight, nine years down. Not all together, but, like, I spent probably eight years in jail my whole life. So a lot of that time, I ain't had nothing but to do but think. I had nothing to do but think. So, you know, I was always trying to create, like, different scenarios.

And like, damn, if I could do this, I'm going to really try to do this, you know, like, because I didn't watch enough movies. Everybody, I'm pretty sure. Everybody didn't watch mad movies. But, like, if you can't take something from it and try to paint a picture of your own story in it, and it's like, that's what I try to do. I just try to take something from it

and utilize it and put a twist on it and keep it scandalous, you know, without doing the, you know, dishing everybody. And, I mean, I came in with that. I ain't going to lie. I came in with that. I was about saying, this nigga, lying.

You ain't lying like a motherfucker. This nigga, why? I heard some shit. My nigga try to keep it on a super political bit. You're dissing the dicks, man. I came in with the bull, yeah. But, you know, everything is scandalous. You know, I shook that and then I got creative with it, though.

But I think a lot of your songs, you know what I'm saying, that you got the ghetto and you glamorizing where we're from and what we're doing or, you know what I'm saying, the ghetto period. I mean, a lot of your songs like that, they blow, you feel? me like you know what I'm saying my boy shout out my boy 10 you know what I'm saying in there and there a crickwalk and that shit went viral you know what I'm saying that's that that's that real player in the game man that's yeah I went to but at the same time with that I had I had niggas from

6-0 on the killer yeah I went to the 40s and shot a piece of that video in the 40s I went to had niggins from 6-0 on the killer like I went to probably like four sets in Compton. You feel me? I really went to every, I went to every spot that was like solid. Like where I knew people from, I'm like, bro, I'm calling. Like, bro, pull up. It's good. You feel me? The homies right there. Oh, what's up? They're shaking hands with niggas from 6. So I had, I had a few people from Hoover in the Broadway's within 11 deuses and all that. So it was kind of like everybody was like, damn, like you really was able to. to bring people in and get, you know,

link is tapping in and linking up and networking and all that, like, you know. Yeah. Instagramming and doing all that. So it's like, damn. Like, so I kind of looked at it like, man, I'm going to try it. Fuck it. I'm going to try it. Like, I ain't know if that shit was going to work or not. Man, tell me the first time, you know what I'm saying,

you encounter, you know, well, tell me the first time, man, Q hit you. You know what? You know what? Hop on this song, nigga. Did you feel like you was that nigga when he hit you? I felt like I was that nigger. When I first seen him, when I was fresh out, he was shooting Break the Bank. I had dropped the Red Zone. I had dropped Reds on some little boyish freestyle like I did.

But that's when I was first came home. And everybody was like, bro, you ain't rapping, you don't even talk. How are you rapping? I'm like, all right. Yeah. I ran that. And then I did a few of my other little tracks and shit. And then I ran the cue, went to the video shoot, and he was shooting that Break the Bank.

And he was like, bro, like, man, I've been hearing your shit, man, you've been doing it up. This and that, and this and that. This was in probably 2013. So I just kept doing all that. And then I did the squabble of shit. Then I did the bouty track with Perico. You know, so up until me running back in the queue years later, he was like, bro, come to the house.

Like, I seen him at the video. So we went to, it happened at a video shoot again. Me and one of the homies, we went to the video shoot with him and Ferg. What's the name of that shit? I forgot, but, yeah, him and Ferg, we up there. He's like, yeah, man, come to the house. Like, we're just going to be chilling this and that. He wasn't even supposed to record.

We were just going to the house. Yeah. He ended up putting a beat on. Put a beat on. I'm listening to it. Like, damn. He's like, yeah, man, I need you to get on this. I'm like for sure

I know, what's crazy is he didn't tell us that initially. He just played the beat. He didn't tell us this initially. He played the beat.

And the shit ended up coming out dope. And then he told us after we listened to it, like, maybe like 300 times. He's like, hey, look, to be honest, if y'all was trash, already had Vince Stable verse ready for this. Oh, he kicked Vince Staple off the song for y'all. That's cool, man. That's love.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I took that and ran with it for show. I took that and ran with it just seeing how just even being, like, every show, I watched every show. I watched every show and tried to take something from every performer, every opener, like, everybody we ran into, like, every city we went to, I'm leaving the venue, I'm on the little scooter thing, I'm sliding through, I'm tapping in with the peoples,

I'm tapping in with Crips out there, I'm tapping in with bloods out there. I'm still tapped into everybody I met still to this day. Oh, and then you're just to be. That the nigga took you on tour. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So just based off that, like every, every opportunity I came across, like, even if it was

scandalous, I didn't got left in, left in some places and shit. And I'm like, fuck it. Yeah. Like, it's either going to get a hug. Oh, he left you? No, he ain't leave me, but I'm just saying, like. Because you'll get your ass left on tour if you don't wake up at the time. He left their ass off there first.

Yeah, he definitely did. Fuck that, nigga. I love you, though. You, but he did it. I probably wouldn't be able to be on that my motherfucker still, but I don't know. You would have been in the video, too, the video. Crazy. Man, I was in that video.

That's cool, man. Man, why are you, you know what I'm saying? This shit crazy, dog. Now I got to ask these damn questions. I forgot what I was going to say. Like, being in the rap game, you know what I'm saying? You ever get, like, frustrated with these niggas, not, like, as far as producers and, like, rappers not answering their phone,

you know what I'm saying? Not giving you the verse and shit like that. You ever press anybody? Uh. Yeah, hell yeah. Like I be having me, I mean, it be not really no rappers. I don't really, I don't even really, though like, if you ever see anybody featured on my shit, they're gonna be featured on, they're gonna see them with me. Like you feel me like my nigga Bell, my nigga Drebo.

Yeah. You feel me, you always gonna see, like it's, I don't really, other than the people I tap in with, then it's like, hey, like, I need a verse. Usually I get some shit right back. But other than that, like probably videos, mixing, deadlines. Like, it'd be the technical shit that I really can't even control, you know, to where it's like, damn, I wish I knew how to edit my own shit, man. I had this shit out right now the next day. You feel me? Like, bro, this is all you.

This what you do. Got to learn how to do this shit. This what you do. Like, you knock that shit out. Man, how you feel about, nigga, these rappers and shit, like, nigga, what they, what they, one foot in one foot out you know what I'm saying a rap game and this shit happening to like drako and young dorf niggas getting killed over this shit like rap has really become nigger one of the like the craziest thing like worst feel like to be honest it's uh when i felt when I

first fell in my first interview like the like they asked me like what's everything scandless you feel me and now now niggas see like what everything scandless is it's like like you could be chilling you could be trying to do like dude got smoked at a concert yeah he didn't even get smoked you got stah i mean this jail terms for you get smoked that's crazy dog you feel me like like that happened at you know where they were they was working at you feel me but at the same time it's like if you are here talking that you're talking what you're talking you they got to be that if it's that it got to be that you it got to be that You know, so, yeah, I'll stay out of that type of shit.

You feel me? Because I'm, I really get into that type of shit. So I just stay out of that type of shit. Nah, yeah, because if niggas really get into it, we don't. I be telling niggas like, bro, my homie's, like, we be chill. But I think if, I think when niggas really start going up and, like, really start getting into it, like, niggas won't stop. Yeah.

And I'm like, these niggas is going to go to jail. Like, they're willing to risk the life soon as it turn on. And I'm like, man, I ain't going nowhere with these niggas. going on where my homies, man. This shit burnt out. You know, for real? Because that, like, that's how I was when I was first rapping. Like, niggas didn't want niggas around.

They ain't give a fuck. How dope I was. I'm going to. They're like, nigga, you're still tripping. Mm-hmm. You ain't rapping. Like, you're still tripping. I think that's why, you know, Adam, you know, be asking me,

where are your homies at? I know a lot of motherfuckers be like, hey, where are your homies at? And I'm like, I ain't bringing them niggas up here yet. You know what I'm saying? It's all you got to be a wild. Yeah, you got a sprinkle nigg. Yeah, you gotta bring one nigga let him see it like, hey, man. So they get back, you know what I'm saying?

Like, hold on, this is how you act, nigga, you know what I'm gonna? Like, you can't be acting crazy and doing all of this bullshit, you feel I'm? Yeah, so, yeah, that took a minute for me to get out of that. But, you know, like now, seeing what it is now, it's like, you know, especially with social media, you're gonna see every, you're gonna see everything that you wasn't seeing when it was really lit. Like, like, when, when, when, when niggas was really gang banging, you feel me? Like, it's kind of, it's still kind of watered down, but it's, it's,

You know, it's still kind of watered down, but it's like, you can see it now. And it's just like, damn, like, oh, they got robbed. Oh, my God, they got robbed. I'm like, they got robbed. So what? That's why I tell them my girl, she's like, there's so many people getting robbed. I'm like, niggott. I live here.

The only difference is now white people get robbed. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Niggas's going to Beverly Hills. Niggas was doing shit like that. Yeah, nigs get robbed no ring cams. That's what I'm saying.

That's everything scoundless for sure. That's for show. And because you got to think, like, as a crook, you're looking at it like, I'm looking at this camera right here. Hey, man, give me all this shit. Not giving the fuck. I'm still seeing this.

Like, I put together probably a pieces pressed up like in like two hours so right now i feel like what you're doing you feel me you're doing a good thing like you're building like leverage you feel me so when you walk into little like those record coming or record labels whenever you feel like it because i don't know what your situation is right now but whenever you get in there i feel like you got kind of leverage you feel me because you

you know what i'm saying you're building your brand you're selling merch you're i'm saying you building everything scandals you feel me like so you're ready for that shit you feel me like how's that shit doing for you you saying like building your brand uh i feel i feel like everybody everybody's familiar with the brand right now you know like everybody that's been seeing me do my shit you know over the years it's like they know like when they see me it's delion or is everything scantling's you know and that's that's from here to new york to florida to wherever you see me at like i'm recognized as everything scantlis or delion and then it's oh what's up tf you know they're not like oh shit They're like, hey, they're like,

yeah, they yell that shit out. And I'm looking around like, all right, for so. So I think it's dope because Delion is a whole not meaning. That's a whole other thing. I don't know what I mean. I just aren't said to you. But that's what I'm saying.

I'm gonna keep with you from the set. Basically, like, but the dopeest, the dopeest shit to me is when I ran into my boy from 6-0, and that nigga said it. Oh, that's sick. You feel me? That's sick. That's like, Delion. I was just like, damn.

Shit sick. You feel me? All right, all right for self. Yeah, this shit is sick, you know what I'm saying? You know, like, but yeah, so as far as building a brand, you know, that's why I try to keep my, I try to hold myself to that same standard to where it's like, like, you know, for a minute I wasn't trying to get fresh. I'm like, man, I'm keeping my shit scandalous, man.

I'm only pulling up with hoodies and black forces, nigga, like, you feel me? No, hell no. Like, but that was me, though. You feel me? But that's what it got to the point where it was like, man, I'm getting. and tagged in every black forces post. All the shit. So I'm like, all right, for sure.

They caught on. Like, it's scandalous. And then from there, I kind of ran with it. And then once, you know, everybody got the justice of the shit. So now it's like, all right, they're feeling it. So, you know, then now it's time to come with the whole thing. You know what I'm saying? Being a rapper, you know what I'm saying?

Even though this ain't your damn interview, I want this a question for both of you. You know what I'm saying? Balancing, rapping, you know what I'm saying? And family life. Man, how hard is that? Because temptation is like on another level out here, especially with social media, you know what I'm saying,

on the all-time high. Then go ahead. He looked at me. You first motherfucker, come on, man. And go like this. Yeah, hold on. Come on. Let me tell you about I got a story, right?

We're just in fucking. So we're on tour, right? So we're on tour. I don't know how, uh, I don't know how she got my motherfucker. fucking password to my Snapchat but I was in I had two

I had two motherfucking Puerto Rican Colombian joints or something right Going crazy They wasn't even going crazy Hey they wasn't even going crazy But you I mean she It's about to get crazy But it just looked like that

It wasn't even that but it just looked like that So yeah Bro she deleted my whole Instagram Ain't all seeing that shit And I'm like I'm like bro This is at the start

Remember that? Yeah, remember yeah. And you was like, follow me in my other shit. So that's what happened. So the motherfucker deleted your Instagram. God got iced. Damn. Trying to be a player.

She deleted my shit at the top of tour. But before tour, I was already at like 20-some thousand followers. Damn. Feel me? This was before two. That scale is. No, she kept her for show everything scammed. So then, I'm like, damn, I'm like, man, he just fucked up my whole shit.

But I ain't, I'm like, I'm like, I just Bust a new one Came new And I was like You know But at the same time It's kind of different now

Where I'm at Like that was in the beginning I was 2016 But right now It's way kind of different Because you know I didn't Went through the whole phases

All the bush And all that And this and that I'm like man That's you know That shit ain't even worth it But at the same time It's like

It's what you got to do Yeah You know But do you feel like you got to be in the strip club humping on bitches and doing all the whole of shit? I'm just asking you like how your bitch feel about that shit. You got to come out and do a look here and there

but I ain't saying you got to you got to, you know. So that's your looks. So that's your look too humping on bitches and strip club. I ain't humping. I'm chilling. I'm telling. You do it right now. You definitely got to come out and do a look for sure. You got to do your little look. I ain't saying that, you know, to tap in

on that. If you're doing your promo run, you got to go places, man. You got to tap But you know, being. You're trying to stay away from Puerto Rican rappers, they, you know what I feel like rappers are genius, you know what I'm saying?

And then I also I feel like kind of it's WWE. Sometimes you make up this character in your head. You know what I'm saying? You go rap about it. You do all the little shit because obviously you're not doing none of that shit. Like,

you make up this character in your head and then some motherfuckers just really like start believing that person and go home with the shit. You know what I'm saying? And then they don't know how to like, like balanced family you know what i'm saying in the rapper shit they just never turn it off you don't feel like that's why i'm saying i feel like these niggas just like missing the whole point

you feel me no yeah uh i'll be i got to turn that shit off sometimes you know because uh i got two youths you know and like me they both with their moments and all that now but it's like you know at some point it's like damn i could get caught up and just be straight rapper mode and be like, damn, like, let me hit this nigga like me. I ain't talked to my nigga in a few days or something. Like, you know, it do get like that, but at the same time, it can't stay like that. It got to, you know, you got to find time to really, like, tap in. Because, you know, like, I'm, I try to be there as much as I can, you know, outside the bullshit, you know.

So I just try to, you know, you got to try to balance that, find a balance, find some type of common ground and try to make that shit work. Because was your father in your life all your life? I think that a pin. Because I feel like, you know, it is important for us to have our, you know, be there for our kids and shit like that. Because in the ghetto, like, I seen a lot of niggas that had eight fathers, niggas, daddies weren't around and shit like that. Niggas leaving them. That shit is true. Like, niggas not picking them up.

You know what I'm saying? That shit do affect a lot of homies. That makes the difference how a nigga to turn out to? For real. Like, you know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? It ain't the overall difference, though, but it do affect. you I think that would have location mean everything yeah not for real because I

was with some some dude just got smoked in the land and I was with my son and we pulled up and I see him out he just laid out right here like it was fresh like fresh like probably like a minute later I'll just see him out I'm like damn but the little nigg was with me yeah feel me so I'm like uh come on man took that nigga straight back home left him near. Like, man, it's how we would. Yeah, that shit kind of,

some of the situations that happened in the land man kind of traumatized a nigga to where I feel like, you know what I'm saying? Death really don't bother me. You know what I'm saying? And it's kind of like, damn, am I supposed to be dropping a tear right now? Like, a nigga numb to it. For sure, like. A nigga numb to it for sure.

That shit definitely made me numb to a whole bunch of shit. And that shit really did make a nigga like even, like, worse. you feel me like just really not giving the fuck being over there yeah i try to stay from over there now try to do your thing and elevate that's because that's the goal for sure but yeah you know what you got dropping you know what i'm saying you know what i'm saying you know what i'm saying whatever you got new coming up what you got what you got going uh shit big moon out right now go tap in on that big moon uh i got a project produced by rock marsiano and me fucks we dropping that probably uh end of this month the end of this month or probably mid-February or something uh that's
