No Jumper coolest podcast on the world. Today we got an epic, iconic fucking interview going down. The one and only Travis Porter is in the fucking building. How you guys feeling? Hey, man, feeling good. Feeling good. What up, Adam? No, I'm excited just to have you guys here.

It's such like, you know, you guys are one group that when I said that I was doing the interview, everybody that I told that I was doing the interview, they just reacted with so much energy. Like, oh, man. It's lit. My homie, AD, who was just here, he said, like, man, they were the Migos before the Migos. Oh, that's lit. There's a lot of truth to that, man. A lot of truth to that.

We hear that, like, we hear that comparison a lot. You know what I'm saying? Not comparison, but, you know, like a, we just hear that frame. That's what you could say. Yeah, I mean, they definitely have their own style. And there's a reason why the Migos have been around for so long and everything. But I think when people look at you guys, they see you guys as being like the young, turned up Atlanta fucking era generation. Like before it became so easy, before you could just hop on SoundCloud and just make a hot record in your basement and then just put.

it online. Like you guys, you guys had that formula and that connection with the youth, really before a lot of people. No, that's, that's... Before social media, you know? We definitely came out when, like, Instagram just started. Right. So give me a year when you guys first started to emerge.

And actually, maybe we should even go back before that. Talk a little bit about, like, the early days of you guys just coming together and really deciding that you were going to start making music together. We actually used to be called the hard hitters, bro. Yeah. It was a lot of us, and we We kind of just had the same mindset.

It was around the same age. We were the younger cats. And you know, we started fucking with the ladies. And they loved it. It was no looking back. Yeah, we all grew up together, Frere. You ever heard of, you heard of Black Mob era and all that? I've heard that you guys were in some sort of criminal organization called the Black Mob, yes.

Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly. You heard it's on Teabbad, though. Uh-huh, yes. You know, that's our song. I've teabag back. It was a theme song right there. It was Travis Porter before. Travis Porter.

You know what I'm saying? Right. game okay but strap was really the first person that made like this love song and all the girls loved it okay it was like the ringtone you know when everybody had the ring tone

even when you say somebody want to leave your voice message and you got your song playing on your voice mail yeah it was that song you see what I'm saying it was like one of them songs but it was for the ladies in I love you

yeah it was tight time I need I mean that was that a big part of it like how early on did you guys realize that it would be better off for you to focus on party music, turnt-up music, music that would appeal to the girls and not necessarily, like, some moody shit, some street shit, necessarily that you guys were more oriented

with the fun element. I mean, honestly, that's what the people chose, you know. We put out all type of different music, you know, Trapporter, we got arranged, we'd be singing. We'd be making hood shit. We'd make, like, all type of music. That's just what they chose. That's what caught.

That's definitely what caught. I felt like you guys very much were, like, children of the strip club. We were. We used to go to the strip club when we were. children. What age? Like, did you guys really start being in the strip club? And were, were the strippers taking it easy on you

because you were underage? Or was it more like, nah, we're going to smother them with our evil attention? No, look, my mom used to manage the strip club, right? So we'll get snuck in, like, through the back doors and stuff. And, you know, that just, that fucked our life up. Once you win there, you win there. That's why we started talking about this.

They're not asking for ID once you win there. Yeah. We're going back to school next day, yeah, Well, I would just... But which I did later night? But we was in the strip club. I'm gonna know what... And probably every other dude in school was just like, god damn.

Like, you guys are operating on a different level. I can't imagine. Yeah, exactly. They didn't believe it. No, they didn't. We was inspiring them. You know what I'm saying? That's real.

Like, we inspired the culture. Strip club was a fantasy to me when I was 14. I'd heard about it, maybe seen it in a movie. I didn't have any plans to get in there. You had uncut on BET? Yeah, I definitely... definitely whacked off to Tid drill a few times. Yeah, yeah.

They tip drew a video. That shit was a lot. The one video that white girls in my world. That song was hard. Definitely. I don't got to wait for his name was. So you really, like, you feel like the strip club did have a somewhat negative impact on your life? Or did you have to sort of at a certain point kind of change some of the ideas that you had about women

because you were so used to being in that environment as a young kid? Yeah. I mean, I feel like that, like, the second one, like I just had to change my mindset about, you know, certain women, not all women, but it's just, you know, I learned a lot in the strip club, a whole lot. We did. It was a point where I only used to fuck with strippers.

Exactly. I had to stop that, though, because it was. But they'll give you the most game without knowing they're giving you the most games. Because they got game too. Yeah. So, shout to the game on your head. You know, they're going to put you down. You feel.

Exactly. My theory is that the dudes who go and become. rappers or drug dealers, if they were women, they would become strippers or these days maybe only fans, girls. You know, it's very much the same mentality. You're maximizing the amount of money you can make in any given time. It's really what it's all about it. Most girls are stripping.

They couldn't go be a doctor or a lawyer and make more money. That would change the decision. It's all a finesse. It's a finette. We support the knicker hustle, you know what I'm saying? Like, if you got game, well, put that game on the lane and get your change. You know what I'm saying? And that's how it go.

I think it probably takes a certain type of woman to be able to withstand the mental torture of having these fucking weird-ass dudes throwing money at you and saying crazy shit. Like for every dude like one of you guys that they actually feel all right chilling with, there's got to be 40 more that are just weird as fuck. Just think about it. Like on players club, the nigga they used to go to the house. Yeah, dudes who are in the strip club because there's no chance of them getting pussy outside of the strip club. So they might as well look at some.

Yeah. Some dudes. about that crowd. I always think about the crowd like the merry old man or the married people that just want to go get away for a second. And the young folk that just, you know, we just depend on what club you go to them. I ain't never thought about the riddles, the creeps in the corners, they can't get

no creepies. Or the fly. They're looking. Yeah. Just getting drunk, just drooling on themselves. Okay, so talk about when you guys really, like, do you guys blow up kind of more in the streets and in the city versus more on the charts and stuff.

I feel like at that time, you guys grew up or blew up on a very organic level. Like hand-to-hand. Yeah, it was so hand-to-hand that, like, it started so small. Like, it started, like, in our neighborhood and then it expanded to, like, North Carolina, South Carolina, Jackson.

Yeah, we had to work them streets and them CDs, them jitters. So you guys were still moving CDs out the trunk? Yeah, I want to say out of the trunk. We wasn't selling them. We was giving them out. It was promotion. It was a promotion.

Everything was promotion. So we was actually making money like on our shows and then we'll just use the money for our shows and press up our CDs and give them all the way for free. Like at the CD shops and you know, just, you know, so they make a profit off it too. The CD shops actually was making money off of them. So we'll give them to the CD shop and CD shop and set them shit. Definitely.

I feel like you guys were probably one of the last to really have that hustle to be like pushing the CDs in hand and shit. Like us guerrillas, though. around that time. Like, yeah. Michelle, we was going crazy. That's the around time it was changing. Like, everything was changing.

Right around that time. And in a lot of ways, I feel like artists from your generation are the ones who sometimes kind of got screwed by the fact that the labels didn't know how to make money off of your, like, when I'm watching the, I watched a documentary about you guys yesterday and I'm seeing how it was such a big deal for the label to want to give you guys a million dollars. And I'm thinking about it, I'm like, oh my God. If you had Travis Porter come out right now, you would have labels

fighting to give them a million dollars yeah yeah that was that was that was crazy that was a that was a fun time no the whole little the transition you know in the game moving around so much and then a million dollars they're like yeah man we want to get y'all a million dollars we was like man what man i was really cool on the million though i'm not gonna lie i was cool on a million though i mean at the time probably but now that i'm looking back on it like i'm glad i didn't take a million because it didn't make sense to me. Right. It's kind of a short-sighted thing in the long run.

That shit too short, like, bitch? So where was the most, when you guys thought about your business, it was primarily about doing shows at the time since it was very hard to monetize, you know, screaming or putting your shit online. It was like YouTube. Because he wasn't dropping like albums or nano, like iTunes stuff. We was dropping mixtapes and really just doing shows. Right.

Yeah, mix safe doing shows. And then, like, I feel like... On radio, you know, royalties and all that, that's basically where all the incomes coming from shows and royalties. You know, it wasn't no streaming for real. Yeah. That whole revenue stream that everybody,

and the labels, like, when they're giving somebody a million dollars to sign now, that's why. It's because they want to just touch as much as possible out of the streaming revenue, yeah. Yeah. I feel like once we had got on the tour with Mac Miller, that's when we learned about the merch, because he was going so crazy on the merch.

Like we was like man we got to get in this merch game because he making 20,000 a night off fucking merch like no we got to get in here So that's when we got on the merch so it was like shows merch royalty that's pretty epic though how did you What was your thoughts on Mac Miller at the time and what was it like being on tour with him? He seemed like he was such a good natured fun guy Yeah yeah he was cool man mac was I feel like Matt was the same person he was like on like TV or something like that if you seen him on TV or something he was the same dude funny you know high spirit you know yeah like mac was cool bro like that that um that tour it was it was us m yg wow so you're covering the whole all the hip pop right there you got all different size great all different size bro you got the white boy the turn up kids and the mega gangster that's very good right there yeah and it was like a safe tour

like you know what i'm saying it was lit like every we went to some places we never had been before like Albuquerque and shit. It was some weird ass towns, but it was packed up. That's what I was saying. I'm like, you guys must have had your music getting turned on to so many people that wouldn't have heard it anyway because I felt like Mac Miller had like

a very unique college kid audience. That wasn't necessary. Maybe that was like the first rapper. They really fucked with a lot of these kids. Yeah, and then he exposed us to them. Like, and then it's just like, bro, that's that's horror. Like it was crazy as fuck like, bro. Like so many people.

a night. That was like our first time being in like 6,000 a night. You know what I'm saying? It was so crazy like the college runs and that's how we, I feel like that's how we kind of got we had the college crowd but like that's how we really got them like embedded in a white college kids. Yeah, like we're loyal. The way we perform like it's the way we perform too like they didn't see like you know people perform like If you look at people now, like, you know what I'm saying? They're not really performing like that.

We gave them a show. Yeah, we had energy, you know, we're just, exactly. You know what I'm saying? But a lot of people perform now, you know what I'm saying? They rock back and forth. They do their thing, but, you know, it's a handful of people that, you know what I'm saying? That's turked up. But, you know what I mean?

When we was performing on that tour, I feel like we had like. The greatest show. Just grabbed them. You know what I'm saying? Who are you guys looking at for inspiration in that regard, though? Because I feel like when you talk to young kids, now they're like Travis Scott is the ultimate performance. and he made me want to be energetic on stage and shit.

I like his videos a lot. He's fired. His whole aesthetic of his like shows be fired. You know what I'm saying? That's another thing. Like he put money on his sets too. So you know what I'm saying? That's a big thing about, you know.

But when he said, who was inspired from? I don't know. I really want to say each other nowadays. I don't know. I think I, like, little John or somebody. Like, little John used to be tucked up. You guys were like the younger version of that,

like taking that same thing. energy but coming from people that the kids could relate to more yeah exactly like little john was just so turked up like he would seem he would seem like he just have the most energy like but i'm gonna lie alana just been like that from like all the like knuckin bucks yeah oh yeah yeah some crook in your system all that like we in the club you know we turned up we lit like it's always been like with alana and that's what the kids want and that's what's the shame is that's what i always tell like or i always think with rappers i'm like bro like don't get in the game and just start popping pills and drinking lean because these kids want energy

from you. If you come in the game and you start doing all that shit, you're going to erase your fucking charisma and your energy from your personality and that's not good in the long run. I feel like everybody go through that little phase. Yeah, everybody dips in a little bit. I don't know. You guys.

I got one. No, I have my little time. You know, I was drinking. Like, every time we come from the show, I'm coming back to the A. Go buy me a pint. I'm going right upstairs. I'm drinking my little drink playing Granto Fado. I'm not going to lie. It don't sound bad at all.

That sounds like a nice night. That's what Greta Fotto first came out too. Yeah, you're just really exploring shit for the first time. I respect that. Okay, but so were you guys partying to that extent before you started getting popular? Or was that more like you started getting popular? All of a sudden, you got access to some of the other side. No, we been going crazy.

We were outside. We just told you we was going crazy since we was 16. It was these clubs in the Lentina Car, HNIC. Yeah. Like it was a team club. And I'm in the intro. Real. Used to go crazy.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's how 21 part, though, all them H&Cs, all them team clubs. Really? Mm-hmm. Wow, that's interesting. Wow, that's interesting. It's not a thing.

It's not a thing anymore, though. Like, the 10 club is not a thing anymore because they be shooting it up too much now. Yeah. No. Yeah. I used to go to 18 plus clubs in, in L.A., too, and I wonder if that shit still exists. It seems kind of weird.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. But, okay, so, was it a thing? issue for you guys because a lot of times like artists coming out Atlanta and shit it's kind of like you could be a fun artist or you could be a gangster artist and with you guys and I didn't

necessarily know about that at the time but you guys were off the porch like you're saying and you guys were wrapped up in some shit but I feel like a lot of people might have been looking at you guys like you were just kids just having fun or whatever was that a balance and I'm sure there was people on your team and stuff that wanted you guys to not be involved with anything sketchy and just focus on the music and shit right we didn't have a problem with that because we know we from you know what I'm saying like at least said we we have a large catalog of music so that did our kind of music but you know the music that works and and pop for us was fun music that's something that everybody could relate to yeah you know what I'm

saying so it's you can say it's a gift and a curse but it's really not weak because we're comfortable with it you feel definitely not too guys not too not too you know corny you know You know what I'm saying? Just perjorny. He's just perfect, you know. But was that ever a conversation? Like, did someone in the group ever say, like, oh, I want to do this song? And then somebody in this group was like, I don't know if that's us.

Like, that's a little too aggressive. It's balanced. Nah, no. It's always been like that, though. He's the dirty one. He's the dirty one. We balance each other out. No, I feel like all of us be on that, too, though.

Like some of our biggest songs, we all was on some, like, I don't know for a lot that shit. It was like it was just two. like corny type. Like, hey, ladies. Yeah. You know, but look at it. We hated that shit. That's got to be the tricky thing about being you guys is that, like, a lot of your

biggest songs are the ones that are almost too corny. Like, almost a little bit too obvious. Like, nah, feet of you. They're right there, bro. At the door. It's just part of music, you know what I'm saying? And it's nostalgic. It's just something we can't get away from.

I was watching all you guys's videos last night with my girl on the couch. And my girl, like, at least three times, she said, this was them? I didn't know that that was their song. That was such a big song that I almost like didn't even feel that she's not exactly a hip hop head to be honest, but she didn't necessarily

like the songs were so big that they kind of got bigger than even just a single artist. Were you guys aware of that at a certain point? So the fact I think he said it last night that he was like in the midst of us like arguing about something and he was like yo bro something like he was like bro

some of our music is like ahead of Like if it's not ahead of us, it's like, people don't know who it is, but when they hear it, they like, yo, I know this on this is y'all like, man, this shit's crazy. Like, and I don't know, like, I don't know how I feel about it, but I know that shit happens and I know that shit is like kind of like I fuck with it. It's a good problem to have. Yeah, I fuck with it. It's good, but it's not a bad problem.

It's good. No, it's good because of right now, you know what I'm saying? If it was like five, six years ago and they was like, oh, this you, cool. But it's like now we didn't even put out no music. They now knowing like, oh, okay, this is y'all. Like, this shit's hot. Like, I fuck with it. But you feel how you feel.

Yeah, I don't think I fuck with it. Do you feel like... The records got so big, I'm just guessing, but the records got so big that you felt like at a certain point, maybe the marketing of you guys as a group didn't match up with how big the records were and it's sort of like some value you got lost behind? But I don't feel like that about the hits,

like make it rain. A, ladies, bring it back. I feel like that about. like the undercut joints like I feel like that about like say like we had a song with YG nine times out of 10 or we had like this song with Jeremiah Rye like that or we had like other little joints like that that that's what I feel like that about I feel like that like but now I'd be but look I'd be in like an Uber sometimes and they were like you know what you do you know you'd be asking you know how to be asking questions yeah you never supposed to tell the Uber driver what you

do now I always tell them I'm an engineer so they start talking about that I'm an engineer, yeah, I just engineer I just give them the most boring answer ever like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Then they're going to ask you who you're engineer for and you just say locals. I tell them I work in a warehouse. Exactly.

It's basically true. You ain't lying. What I was saying, though, I got to tell an engineer like, oh, who I am and they'd be like, oh, what's the song? I heard. Then they play the songs, be like, oh, I know this. And then I play another one. Oh, I know this one too, damn.

This is a joke? That shit kind of pisses me off a little bit Yeah It's like how fuck he didn't know that You know what I'm saying I respect it I was made it Definitely

Um Okay but so So was all the way turned up You guys's first flirtation With exploding and like Getting really big Because like when I was reading about it I'm like

This was them And then I'm like Oh right This ultimately wasn't them Like at least in the public eye Like can we go through How that situation Actually unfolded?

Oh well Well, really, like, we was already building a name for ourselves, and we had traction, and then a tape that we was putting out that was highly anticipated, we ended up on Ottawa Way turned up at the end of it. Okay. You know, with Roscoe Dash. So you didn't think that was a head. I mean, we knew it was a good song, but we didn't know it was going to do that.

But wait, back, before that, we had already had, like, we had put out songs before. Yeah. And then we had a go short, we had crazy before that. Yeah. And even before that, like, in our neighborhood, like, I felt like we put out songs, and they were like fire, like, we had put out songs. So basically it was really just waiting on something. You know what I'm saying?

They just amplified. And then the tape came out, and then that's the song that went crazy. You know, then what happened after that? But so, okay, did you guys ask Roscoe Dash, like, hey, we want to put you on this song? Or was it a thing where he said, I want to turn my song up, so I'm going to get Travis Porter. It's what happened. The ultimately, that is what happened. You know what I'm saying?

But we in the car one day. Well, his cousin, YT, him and Roscoe come scooping. I'm probably at a hotel party with some freaks and shit, you know what I'm saying? Oh yeah, throw that in now. That's what's up. Anyway, you know, we get in the car. He's like, man, I want to play some music, and he played that song. And I'm like, shit, we're going to go to the studio right now.

We're going to hop on it. But I was by myself. So it was no studio open. That night, we went to, we had a session the next day. You know what I'm saying? The CEO, Charlie was with us. And we hopped on it and, you know, put that bitch out of him. put that bitch out and it wasn't no looking back from that motherfucker okay

i understand was it a in retrospect was it mostly like a paperwork issue like you would have wanted it to be figured out in advance if it were to happen now yeah for sure yeah sure but it was bigger than it was we should yeah it was bigger than it was it was also people in his ear telling him like hey man you know you know you can you come over here you can be you know what I'm saying but you know ultimately what it was we was we didn't think the song was gonna do that right you know what I'm saying so you know when it was a good song and it just kind of blew up. It was bigger than all of us at that time.

That was like the first time, first of all, that was the first time we had ever dealt with some shit like that to where it blew up so fast that we didn't know what was going on. And it was a song that we didn't think that was going to do it. So we wasn't prepared to, like, do, you know what I'm saying?

We wasn't prepared. It was already on the mixtape site that's Travis Porter featuring Roscoe Dash and YT. Because you guys probably hopped on 100 features over the years that didn't go crazy and you never gave a fuck about not getting more money up. And we put it on our tape because we was doing hell of songs with Roscoe.

So we was like, all right, fucker, we're gonna just bring him with us. It makes sense. So let's put it on the mixtape because he had like, did he have one on that tape? Or was the next tape? The next tape was like... The next tape was the one when we was with him.

All right, cool. So we were just like, shit, we're making so many songs with you. We might as well put this on the end of our mix tape. And then the next mixtape, we put you on a couple more songs, you know what I'm saying? Like introducing. Exactly.

But, I mean, that shit was cool, man, I fuck with that shit. I fuck with the way I fuck with the song, but I just didn't fuck with the way the shit ended. It was just too much going on with that. But, you know, that's how we live and learn. You know what I do being this better. You know, they're going to take it an opportunity. But when did you guys start to have some friction

where he would want to put Soldier Boy on the song instead of you guys for the video? Was it like he didn't appreciate the fact that you guys felt some kind of way about the song being considered all his or something like that? It was a little bit of shit talking there. It was shit talking. I think what it was is our name was overpowering his name on the song. Because he was a brand new artist at that point. Travis Porter was already Travis Porter.

It was just him. Yeah, it was ATL then. So I feel like they felt some type of way and was like, nah, this ain't they flicking song. So boom, put Soul's Born and Remade the beat, you know. It's basically exactly the same story as Gucci and Jeasy. Yeah. Same shit.

And the same shit with, um, Rats on Rats on Rats on Rats. With future and YC, yeah. There you go, and what the hell happened to YC? That's a good question. It's the same, it's basically the same story. Like, but people don't be understanding, like that's even a part of your story.

Like, you can use that at leverage, but they want to, they want, you know. You know how it would be sometimes, you know. You gotta respect both sides, it is what it is. Yeah, was there ever a time where you guys were like really furious at that situation or?

Yeah, for sure. Listen, we don't bump the head with Roscoe at shows, almost I got into it with them at shows, security, man, what? Multiple times. But you know, we're bigger than that now, you know? Yeah.

No, that's good news for sure. Okay, but so then that ended up kind of being like a, almost like a good test to you guys, because I'm sure there was a lot of people looking at y'all like, can you do it again? Can you make another fire song? There's going to be as big as that one, and then you guys basically just did that over and over

and showed everybody that like, no, it was not like we had one hit in it. So there's a lot of artists who will like miss out our opportunity like that and that's they don't got another hit yeah yeah yeah for sure and and I feel like the only difference with us and and and Roscoe is that ours was just a little bit more faster like he did come with joints like if you remember like he had the one-lewaka the pretty girl at them he had he had some joints you know what I'm saying but that's just the only difference

between us and him like ours was like like damn there like quick it was quick it was quick like It was super quick, so I feel like that was us. You know, at the end of the day, it was training. But I feel like in our hearts and our mind, even like sub-countryly, we're like, man, we got to show these folks. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Because it was that, it was the name on our head.

Like, y'all stole somebody record. So, you know what I'm saying? That's screened out? Yeah, exactly. Oh, so the story got kind of twisted up in the, in the press and with the fans and stuff, and they felt like y'all might have been being shady in that whole situation. Yeah, exactly. So it was just something we had to prove, like, all right, y'all said we stole some.

somebody record, then, all, cool. Did you guys have a real fire under your ass at that point? Were you in the studio just, like, going harder than you had previously gone? No, I don't feel like. No, it was just already. Yeah, it was organic.

Yeah, we was already just having records. We was already making them. So it was just like, all, cool, let's just put this out. Let's just put this out. But it was joints that we already knew that was like. You know, I was wondering when I was seeing you guys in the studio and stuff, and it was just kind of talking about,

Because it was in the basement of one of your mom's house, right? It was Charlie's mom. Charlie, yeah. Shout to Charlie. Yeah. Is that the white guy from this documentary? Is he still around? It's a part of your career?

You know, he do that little cross-the-country be running and stuff? For the Nike. Really? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he don't lost a lot of weight, you know, shy to him. That's what I was thinking. I'm like, he was looking pretty plus size in that video. I've seen him last night, but that's amazing.

Good for him. That's crazy. He's your size now. Damn. I ain't running across the country either, so good for him. He's not a part of him. our management company right now, but he's still a family. I know he's still a family.

That's what's up. But okay, yeah, when you guys are in the studio making records, though, like, what was the environment like because you guys make such turn-up music that's almost like, do you have to be, like, having a good vibe, party-type vibe in order to create that kind of energy? Can you be in your sweatpants, like just sitting down on a stool, making a hit turn-up record? We can do that. We can do that. I feel like over the time we just mastered doing it.

doing that. You feel like? As long as we in the studio laughing, you know, just drinking, you know, having a good time, it's something gonna come out good. It's gonna come out. That's a beautiful thing. But it was a part of time where we need 10 holes in the bitch. I want red skittles on some switches, some sprites, some crush to pour in.

And it's like, it's just a lot. So we just grew as an artist and as, you know. You're trying to plot on who you want to hit. You need to be worried about. They're you. See, they're you. No, I feel that. No, I feel that.

No keys. If you got 10 girls that you know are available at any given someone you're making a song, how the fuck you don't think about making a song? The song's going to go out the window at a certain point, right? You start throwing shots at the rows in the first. That's all you said in the booth. Exactly.

I want to shout out in the blue. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, oh, he's talking about me. No. Come on.

Oh, he shouted me out in this song. It's a beautiful thing. That song ain't never coming out. We're changing the word. Never will. He'll turn it. You've been in the studio too many of the time

I can't go no more Okay but so after that What was like kind of the order Of the hits that blew up After the whole debacle With the all the way turned up Was A lady's the big one After that was a couple in between

It was the latest one Okay I feel like I feel It was making rain It was making rain It was making rain Yeah make it rain and bring it like the same time We shot that little low Like a little low budget video

But everybody loved it With a little shadow And the girl with a little kick The stripper kick Right that's true We invented that by the way No kidding. Well, I didn't invent it at the game.

You told her to do it. Yeah, you get my swoop. Oh, my God. Yo, but so, yeah, when you heard that beat, did that really stand out to you that's something special? Because there's something about, even when I just heard that fucking horn sample, like, come in. I was like, oh, that.

Our engineer was first FKI. We didn't even know he made beats or nothing. And he just played that beat one day. But it had a whole bunch of other stuff going on. It was weird as hell. But that little one drop was hard. I'm like, man, fuck, look. Take all that other shit out.

Keep that shit right down. This shit's going to go crazy. Yeah, here we go. And then I came up with the flow. And it was a rap. That was the first time I had ever rap like that. So I was like, damn, this shit's kind of hard. But first is the one who kind of like, you know,

he moved some shit around. There's a woo-woo-woo. And then, you know. That does seem like a pretty, like, influential flow. and that people weren't really like messing with their cadence and stuff. Like even when we put you when we say like, oh, Migos blew the fuck up after this or whatever, like there was a lot of experimentation going on with flows at that time

that was really like putting a new spin on rapping that a lot of people like old school rappers. My old school rappers wrapped in like a very simple fashion and all of a sudden you had a lot of young kids playing with cadences and like how you could split shit up, right? Yeah. And he's crazy with like flows and, like, like making words sound like

trying to rhyme him he'd be making them rhyme he can rhyme orange with potato I don't know how he'll make that bit rhyme that bit rhyme that's beautiful yeah now

but yeah after the make it rain it was bringing it back and we made them songs in the same day yeah yeah the same day so we was on one that day

you think that was a coincidence or you think that the because like what I'm saying the energy that would be good there was really amazing energy that day, maybe you would make a couple of hits because of the energy, right? I think the vibe.

I think the vibe was crazy. The energy was crazy. We had our own studio. Like, we was having fun. Definitely. Yeah. When you see that Make-It Rain video, there's so many fucking epic-ass cameos. You got Chris Brown in there. You're talking about the A.

Oh, eight ladies. Oh, yeah. I watched this shit over there. That's when we first, like, really did L.A. Okay. And we were in out the whole floor of the, what hotel that was? Standard? Undyze. The undies. I think they probably changed the name or something.

Was it? Because my girl was watching me last night and she said they just closed that fucking hotel, which is actually really sad. Was right next to that bull peeing in place? Yes, yes. Yes. Yeah, that's the one right there.

Yeah, that shit was crazy, bro. That was like, bro. I had so much fun at that video. That was a moving out of video. We had like 200 girls at that video. That's what I was saying, because she said like this doesn't seem like

a very high budget video. I go, well, they got about 200 bad bitches and they got the whole top floor. of a hotel, so that's gonna kind of cost a bit right there. And the top with the pool and everything. That's really. That was crazy. That was the first day we met Nipsey Hustle.

Yeah, I pulled up to the video shoot, but he didn't get in the video. Really? What was that like? Nah, he was just cool. Yeah, but you guys had connected before, like you knew who he was and you were like, who he was gonna pull up? We knew what he was.

But I didn't, like, I didn't know he was pulling up in anything. Like, I was just, you know. We know. Everybody was pulling up just real genuine. I mean, I guess they just heard it's 200 bitches up there Yeah

All the real thing is gonna pull up the 200 bitches at a hotel Who's not going to That is not a bad point You were like Hey, come through

We got 200 bad bitches Okay Chris Brown In the video Turn it You heard it was 200 hodes Me and Millport What you call it?

What? What? Who? Oh, what the hell What's your name bro? He's doing it? Bro, y'all know

I'm talking about I don't know You're talking about Hey, R. Ab? No, um, meat meal pulled out with brother the nigga that'd be dancing

who African Jamaican nigga Safari yeah oh Safari shut out are you serious I'm gonna yeah

yeah so far as yeah I didn't even know that they were tight I didn't know that I don't remember remember that was

Ryan of four-wheelers and shit together I'm trying to tell y'all I believe you I believe I'll put it down that's a hell of that's hell of

behind the scenes video that probably is right that would be a hell of a behind the scenes Who knows? Safari and Meat Neil pulled up together? But that was like in 2000. That was, you know.

That was before Nicky drove on a park. Yeah, that was crazy. Damn, that's lit right there. That's fucking crazy. That's a serious LA tale in our business. I feel you on that. Okay, so let me answer you this. You got 200 girls around.

Are you guys taking full of veins of the situation? Is there a little bit of you holding back and not necessarily? I don't want to know. Not me. I'm not the one. No. Who is this? This was one of our first times in LA.

We're taking full advantage of what's going on. And we rented the whole floor. So all those rooms are all those rooms is active. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sweet Jesus. Two times.

But you guys were, every deal with like crazy situations with groupies and just weird-ass shit happening at that time? You guys were probably getting so much attention from girls. I can't imagine it all went smoothly. Hey, he had a girl crying in the hallway one night, bro. Oh, you kicked her out? Brought another one in?

Yes, I think so hard some shit like that. Like, I was like, damn, bro. I went to buy? No, she was doing too. No. No, I'm talking about it. I'm in the States. I appreciate it.

You know the girls that try to act like she's not fucking all your homeboys, but then try to act like she just all yours? She really, choo, choo, choo, choo. And then we'll try to cry, make a scene. Wow. Watch that. Move right. One of them scenes.

I was like, damn. That was crazy. That was pretty crazy. Nah, fuck it. Well, we were crazy. One, one host stole one that he changed back in the day. And my buddy go to Waphouse to get us something to eat. Ali fell asleep, I guess, after he got down to the hole up on.

The hole in Wafelaw and Jop was just parlaying with Ali chain on. Eating up. My brother go over there. You know what they saying? Just scraring the issue, but they just tell you how bold, motherfucker be sometimes. That shit crazy. You know what I'm saying? And you got different type of women.

I know. I know that's insane. I know that crazy. She took the chain off of them and was just making like, she was doing a TikTok and the Wobberton. I think, no, this is not tick-to-talk. That's what I'm picturing as a girl doing a Waffle House tic-top with a rapid T-Tay-on. She probably took it out of the room, out of the hotel room.

She's your part of the guy from putting it down on me. You know? I don't flutter around. Caught disease. Oh, so you got to send one of your homies to go get the chain from the Womper. No, we didn't send him. He was just there. It was the ice-ditch.

That's the worst thing about the pandemic. I haven't been to a Waffle house in like a year. Yeah. I ain't went to Sett in a bitch, either. I ain't got a Waffle house over here. Hey, man. I left California in like a year, huh? Oh, damn.

I don't think. Oh, man. But, okay, yeah, that that was a fucking huge moment. Brough said Wafel. Yeah, so from you guys' perspective, like, okay, this is one thing I've always been interested in is, you guys always stayed tight or were there time periods where you didn't really fuck with each other and there was some sort of strain, you know, like all these ups and downs of a career will sort of put a lot of stress on a friendship? No, I feel like it was times where everybody wanted to do their own thing.

You know what I'm saying? It was times where like we all stayed together. And then it was times where we like moved out of the same spot. And then it was there was the times where I was like, all right, shit, let me do my own thing. Because we would be together so much. So once we got our own crib, it's like, all right, I should let me do my own thing. I'm living by myself. Let me do my own thing.

That's always how it happens. Once people start getting money in, they get their own spot and their girl. Yeah. So to have the whole thing to you can fuck up the chemistry of the friendship. Exactly, exactly. Not even the, not of the friendship, but of the...

The artistry in particular, yeah. Exactly. So now that we live it in our own spots, I got my girl, he got his girl, he got his girl, I'm chilling like, shit. I got the studio at my house, he got on it. You know, you know, it just, I feel like that's the strain on the whole thing,

you know what I'm saying? Sometimes. You know what I mean? A lot of times. Mm-hmm. I feel it. But where you guys, like, when you talk about having a girl, was it kind of hard to, like, sort of settle down and fall back,

being in a relationship after, you know, if you guys live in, like, a large percentage of your life, just drowning and pussy. Like, you know, just blasting out of the walls everywhere you go. Yeah, I feel like now, like, bride. Nah, look, for real. I'm like, the problem. Interview over.

You know what they say? You get a black trying to walk out. Listen, the problem I got is I'm so used to. like posting shit, like shit that I post, I don't think it's that serious. You know what I'm saying? I fuck around and post some shit like something with the girl

shaking or she twerking or... I don't even post them. And it's a problem. And it's a problem. Like, it's so like that's why I feel like that part of my life has done for my love life. Like, that's fucked it up because I'll be posting some shit. Girls be more sensitive. Like,

you know what I'm saying? Two damn sensitive. Girl, I post some shit like you remember the, um, the past, David? Yes, the fucking, what is it called? Yeah, in Vegas. Yeah, what was you doing? I watched that. It was like tag-in.

Tag-in. Tag team, they ho. We went tag team. She was just twerking, though. He tagged. I tag, he tagged. Tag team back again. My girl going crazy.

It got 100,000 views on Instagram. Women be sensitive, though, man. Women be sensitive, you know what I'm saying? I mean, shit's changed a lot because, like, if you guys were, at a strip club in 2010 turning up all night is like very likely you could go back home to your girlfriend and she would really not have that much of a clue at least she wouldn't have a visual reference to what the fuck was going on exactly now even if you stay off your instagram story yeah you're gonna be on somebody else's instagram story and then this is going to go tag his girlfriend

ha ha this will be funny you know they go digging they're like that for digging for private investigators what oh god that was twitter p i back then they were doing some twitter shit That was like the early days of us living in this fucking surveillance state where everything could be tracked online, you know? Man, well, I can't wait to they dig some old-ass tweet up. I probably got some good shit out there. Bro, I got some nice shit out there. I'm trying to tell you. Everything on camera that day, man, everything being documented.

That's 100% facts. Okay, so when people say to you, like, or when people say, like, what happened to Travis Porter, how would you? you guys kind of explain that maybe at a certain point you guys fell out of the spotlight as much or whatever I mean obviously you guys are still out here still doing shit still making music but in terms of the career sort of like hitting a wall at a certain point or whatever would you blame them on the labels primarily what how do you account for that well listen to be a thousand like our last joint that we really put out was a song with our homie bank row fresh it was called walked in rest in peace so that was like that was like really like

like when everybody was just like, damn, you know what I'm saying? It was kind of like one of them heartbreaking situations where somebody who's with you every day and you know what I'm saying. So you knew BangRoll from super early in his career? Like not even. We know, I knew Frisch until like 2000. Like 2000, 13, 14, you know, had been for me. You know when you hear somebody name and Screeks,

what you're kind of familiar with the music. I got up around and get acquainted. He was coming up for a long time before. All time. A long time coming. So, you know, we started dealing around. Love fresh energy after rip as soon as I met him. You know what I'm saying?

Had an amazing energy. And we just, I became friends, you know what I'm saying? I was dealing with him for a minute. And I loved this sound, you know, brought around and it was, you know, everything else was history. We were supposed to make that street stars too with bankroll. Really? Yeah. That was on the way.

Exactly. That was on the way. next project that was the project we was working on you know what I'm saying and then I feel like that was that was that was a whole too you know bro that shit was so crazy bro I feel like that was like the the reason for art well for at least for me like at that moment like damn I don't want to go to the studio I'm chilling I'm at the house I'm cool with y'all we had this big house together you know it's all together yeah bankroll used to be at our house every day like yeah first one up in the money.

Backs, like. Natural. Right. That was, I don't know. So it was just, you know, dealing with life, it wasn't like a really, I know we kind of was outside of the line, like, but we was just, you know, still at it, you know, working on our catalog, you know what I'm saying, making it big. But it was, you know, just dealing with shit, you know, deaths and, you know, just, just life

as a human, you know what I'm saying? I still feel like it's a lot of high fault still, too, though. Yeah. That was their brain label. We wasn't just really just in tune all the way. Well, how was it? With the music or with the, he was really trying to be successful?

Or what was it that you guys were doing wrong? Just everything. Yeah, just everything, you know. And like, you know, the labels collapsed. And then, like, we had to go be with some label that didn't even really fuck with us. That must have been a big part of it, right? We had to find some more motivation.

That was a major, that was a big part too, though. For sure, for sure. When I was watching this about how you guys are on one label and then it gets turned to another, label and everything, I'm like, oh, that's a death sentence. There's like almost no rappers who are going to consistently be embraced. Because like, you know, the problem with the record label is that they give

you a million dollars to sign you and then all of a sudden there's somebody else working there and they just don't. Like, you would think that if you're going to give somebody a million dollars, like if you gave someone a million dollars, you're going to, they don't pay you back. It's your whole fucking purpose of existed to figure how to get the million dollars back. With a label, it's not like that. They fucking

forget about their investment pretty quickly because it's just changing staff. It's the staff. It's The staff not attached to that million dollars or whatever. It's the company that's attached to that million dollars, so shit is whatever. They just forced the company to give them the million dollars to get to the artist. Yeah, exactly. So they can move and do whatever they want to do, you know what I'm saying?

So, you know, that's really the attachment. The people, the people that signed us ain't the people that's working. But that's what the disconnect was it. That's what the disconnect was it. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm really the crash of the labels and they weren't really fuck with us high. You know what I'm saying? No, they was fucking with us.

They just wanted to do some other shit. But RCA was... They were trying to switch some shit up about this. Exactly, yeah. Oh, what were they trying to switch up? Make it more... Trying to switch us a little bit. Make this shit more corny.

Exactly. That little inch of corny we was talking about, they wanted to cross that line. They wanted to cross that line, but... And we wasn't crossing it. And were you guys getting more and more like, I want to make music that I like and that the streets are going to appreciate

and that the people who are in the clubs that I'm around are going to appreciate it. You don't want to make a top 40, necessarily a song that sounds super designed to just be huge. I mean, it can be a top 40 song without you doing that. Exactly. We didn't want to be ush. All them songs kind of sounded designed.

And we were like, nah, man, like, we cool. And we see that now, because, like, such a huge percentage of, like, big rap songs that pop off don't sound like they were made to be a hit. It sounds like some fucking, like, random city, down south, gangster-ass song that doesn't It wasn't made to be a hit, but people relate to the realness. I feel like they wanted us to be like a group that was like, we won a contest and now we're together. And they're building us like, no, that ain't what's going on.

You guys said the Jive when you showed up that they had already, even before signing you, that they had shit all over the walls and everything, like as if they had already signed you, like to, that was how big the full court press to convince you. It was a, it was a beating one. It was a beating war for us. All the labels did. that.

They all of them did that. They're trying to win us over. I was trying to win us over. I was trying to win us over. I was talking. I was like, damn, okay. Who got the biggest party? We go to a party in New York one day.

I think it's between Bidding World. We go to the club with Diddy. Yeah, I think, what club was it? I forgot. I just remember going to the house. I don't know. Yeah, I remember going to Diddy House. That shit was so.

Man, home and in between this building world, like, whoever we was going against in a house, club he said man no fuck over there drinking pee pee the fuck ain't drank in nenn no fuck drank in peace we drank in the real one over here I think like New York Times I think he said like

Travis Porter did the new group something like shit like that I think Charlie was still with her so it was just it was a headache out of building war shit man hey did he like the biggest the biggest oh he flip flip flip flip I know he flip flip like Holmes

bro like we went to his crib Big come out And it was just mind-blowing Balladdy Cassie fits in the drunks in the Moodford. Oh, got damn, uh, Central Park. No, look, look, what happened was, boom, we sitting down, you're like,

y'all want something drink? So, hey, hey, go make us some drinks. Yeah. And, like, we turn around, like, oh, this Cassie making us drinks. Bro. Sister hand. That shit was fine.

It was fire. Oh, wow. Yeah, I'm cool. You know, she came up. This nigga bring out a big-ass bottle of fucking. What is that? What did?

It was something. That shit was as tall as him to Chris Stahl was it. Big as baddle with some I don't know. That bitch by my height. And they drug it out of the kitchen. But just part of the bidding was

out of that shit was it helped us it devolved us into who he was and stuff we didn't see you know what I'm saying conversations with moguls who didn't, you know what I'm saying

been in the game for, you know, 20 some years and stuff like that. Like it's just a blessing for us to, you know, get that acknowledgement and gain that knowledge from those folks, you know what I'm saying? Definitely. You guys seem like you still, like, have your heads screwed on straight.

Like, was there a moment where you guys were like, fuck it, let's really, like, give this shit another go and, like, tap in, do some media, like, put out another album. Like, where are you guys at? Thought process-wise in terms of what y'all are trying to do with this shit. Back-Aided. Yeah, that's basically what we're at right now. You know, that's why we're reaching out to everybody.

Okay, yeah. You know what I'm saying? We just, you know, because we still, we got that young face, We still out here, you know what I'm saying? We're young, you know what I mean? And you guys have like a crazy still, just like a reputation and like so many people just acknowledge immediately. As soon as you're a charge of it's like, man, that was a fucking moment.

Like almost universally, people just remember the energy. We got to take advantage of that shit right now. Yeah, yeah. So the music, we got crazy music. It's not even new music. It's just music period. We got old music and new music that we're about to just put out. And it's crazy.

And even just to hear you'd be like, oh, yeah, some fucking legends. You know, that shit just, And we stand with a legend. You know, it's legendary. Just legendary interview. Because a lot of people, you know, they burn out. They put out too much shit. People just get sick of it.

People just completely get over it. It didn't really feel like it was like that kind of energy with you guys. It felt like you almost just sort of step back. And, you know, at a certain point, you guys just weren't fully focused on it. But it's kind of motivation to see you guys still together. It's still like having a... I feel like if you guys secretly hated each other, I'll probably be able to tell. So you would, right?

It's about the energy, man, the vibe. That's the thing I feel like that's great about our career. Like we didn't like drop a million mixtapes and it didn't work. You know what I'm saying? It was kind of like, damn, where they at? They stopped dropping music. That's the best thing about our career. Because if we went out like, damn, they dropped 50 mixtapes and nothing.

Yeah, it was just like, damn. You could tell when the rap is not hot anymore because they like literally just can't make a song that anybody gives a fuck about it anymore. You see them try a thousand times just didn't work. It's pretty obvious. Exactly. So you can really tell, you know what I'm saying? And you can tell the people if we're not really connected like that, you know what I'm

So 100%. So, yeah, I mean, it's kind of a shame because I feel like you guys a big part of like Who Drives Porter is, is the live show and obviously is sort of limited with live shows right now. Although I guess if you guys are like sort of down south and shit, it's probably not that limited. We had one in Atlanta like on 21st. We did, and we did this thing called the parking lot concert.

during the pandemic so where everybody were on their cars and in their cars and shit like that. It was crazy. Yeah, you know Atlanta wide open. That shit was like Freakening. Really? Yeah, they was dancing on the car. That's out of everything.

That's one of them vibes. Yo, the world is ready for a new freaknik, I think, because people are so sick of being inside that they're ready to really get out there and do some freaking shit. And risk everything. Yeah. I thought California was opening back up. I mean, like, you could still go to a restaurant,

but you have to be like outside. Oh. So it ain't really. I don't think the clubs are, maybe the clubs are open a little bit. What's the best outside restaurant we can go to? Because we, I'm always fuck. Like, if I was going outside to, if I had a party. Yeah.

It would be hard for me to even guess which ones are really open right now because I ain't been to that many in the long-house time. Oh, you've been in the house for a real? No, they go to B-O-A steakhouse is the big one. If you want to see all the TikTok kids and shit, that's where you go. You're going to have some paparazzi YouTube-type channels snapping you guys up trying to figure out what the fuck's going on. Tick-Tick-Took the fuck over in it.

Yeah, right? You guys seem like you could do quite well on TikTok. We still have, like, our songs are going viral on TikTok. They are. Yeah, I believe it for sure. It's crazy. Something different. We just actually, we're not on it, though.

We need to get more on it. No, yeah. Do you guys think you're too old to do a dance routine on TikTok? That's what the kids want these days. I feel like that. Listen, AJ ain't nothing. It all depends on how hard you do it. Like, you know, man, man.

It depends on how you feel in the dance. Like, you can't be like, that bit dancing out hard. No, Jason DeRulo going crazy. I ain't seen it. No, Jason DeRlo goes crazy. He had dancers, though. We're not like dancers, but it's cool, though.

I see that shit. Yeah, we ain't doing no dance routine. You're crawling on the ground and that people. Fuck the time. Fuck you to me. I know y'all seen that. I ain't seen it, yeah, yeah. I'm just glad to know that you guys think it's weird, too.

Yes. He's here. Oh man. Yeah, but I mean, I don't know. It's just like, it's weird to know. Like, I know this interview will do mad views because I know that the culture still, like, really wants to like see y'all win and like wants to see the story of Travis Porter like, and or not end, but like have a more solid ending to it.

Because that's like weird for me being like someone who's had a conversation about you with so many people. And it's like consistent. It's like, man, what happened to them guys? You know? Like I think there's a lot. I think there's a lot of people who want to see you guys win, so I'm glad to see that y'all are in the right state of mind

to want to give them what they want. Yeah, hell yeah, man. We did a couple remixes. We were going to put out some new music days. It's bigger than big. You know what I'm saying? Is there anybody rap-wise that you guys still have, like, strong, strong friends with that you never fell out of touch with
