Starting point is 00:07:00 How do you get in the game? Was it Mike Will? I just see you come out of nowhere. Just like Jada. Jada ain't exaggerating the line. You just came out and your shit was legendary. So how did you get your start?
Starting point is 00:07:15 I grew up in Mississippi and long story short, my DJ was cousins with Mike Will's producers, the eardrumbers. So my homie's P. Nasty and Mars, they first got in touch with us and they heard our music that we was making from Mississippi. So they told us, me, y'all come to Atlanta, make, I work with us. You know what's San Jose, lock in with us, see what comes from it. So we was working at McDonald's just doing when we could get some money at the time. So boom.
Starting point is 00:07:38 one of my homies, he had a truck. So we got down, drove that shit from Mississippi to Atlanta and just locked in, like, a whole year in the basement and just cooking up with Mike Will, cooking up with the ear drummers, just creating a new sound. And Mike Will would come over and hear the songs, he'd be like, yo, my y'all boy, it's hard, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:07:55 He always paid show mad love. And then he had an idea for a group, ear drummers backwards. And he felt like the sound matched that name. And we was like, shit, that's hard, you know what I'm saying? boom. Yeah. Sherman. Oh,
Starting point is 00:08:11 yeah. Yeah, that's how it happened. Me and Brosky. You know what's crazy is it's good to have money. Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 00:08:19 And success. But it was nothing more priceless than that time when you was in the basement creating that music and all like, you know, I met Bryce and Tiller and my man,
Starting point is 00:08:31 Rich the Barber's house. You used to live in Rich the Barber's house. He was making that whole first album in his kitchen. Damn. So I got to see that product. Of course, he got the big mansion now. He can't fuck up.
Starting point is 00:08:43 But it was, you know, that's a priceless time when you, when you're there learning the ropes and you're coming up with these hits and you coming up with that sound and, you know, and dreaming. So after that year, you put out this music and then the next thing you know, you explode. How did that feel making a transition from nobody knowing you to now you're the biggest shit in the game? man, it was crazy because like when we lived in Atlanta, it's like
Starting point is 00:09:12 some of these clubs, you know what I'm saying? They turned us around. So many people told us now we can't even play this, you know what I'm saying? So we're on foot with it, you know what? So we're working every club. We're screaming our shit loud in the streets, you know what I'm saying? We're handing out CDs, everything. So the turnaround was crazy. Like, the same clubs that were turning us around, same spots that were
Starting point is 00:09:28 turning us with open arms. They're like, booking us sending bags. So it's like, damn, shit crazy. You know what's crazy. Why I said Loochie was here and he forgot But I remember one night I come out the club. He's performing on top of the car. His song, and they was like, yo, that's Y, Fenn. I mean, Atlanta got a different type of grind.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Man, fuck, going to do what they got to do. He told me he didn't remember that. But I remember watching YF.N. Lucie on top of a fucking car performing his song outside the club. I said, man, that motherfucker is grinding. The hunger to come up, for sure. Super hungry, doing whatever. That's really nuts.
Starting point is 00:10:07 because that's the way, I didn't think your era, y'all was doing that. That's how we came up, like giving the vinyl to the DJs, going to every club. The truth is, you got to get on foot with it.
Starting point is 00:10:20 You can't really, yeah, you can't be successful just sitting on your couch. You got to, like, come on, two times. That's what we're supposed to. Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Thank you, brother. But you can't be, you know, in your couch, Say my daughter, my daughter got a little podcast. Shout out to Azzie as if. And she's making, he's saying she's doing shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:46 But she's doing shit because she's out there and everybody's face and working and doing whatever she can do. On the front line, yeah. And networking and getting the relationship. So every time she comes out with a new breakthrough, I'm like, yeah, but she got to be out. She laid the brick. You can't sit on your car. Nobody going to be able to give you that success or get you to where you go.
Starting point is 00:11:07 without you out there grinding and putting in that work. It's just the way it is. I think if I put out a new record, I got to do the same shit. Now, 2026, like pull up on the club and be like, yo, play this shit. Yo, this and this and that.

But imagine the guys that keep making those hits. Those guys and girls are exceptional. When I see that, that's when I go, all right.
Starting point is 00:49:51 This person trying to stick. You know how many artists I've seen come?

Starting point is 00:54:05 so, John, you ever been to, like, a jazz joint? Not saying jazz, but I've been to, like, little restaurants where a guy or a girl, they sing like Whitney Houston.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And you sitting there, you're wondering, yo, what happened? Why this young lady ain't the biggest in the world? Why this guy? They ain't go to the room.
Starting point is 00:54:25 right people and then it wasn't the moment. And then people take getting on and making it for granted. It's not that. Everybody can do it. Everybody can do it. Literally. Yeah, there's different
Starting point is 00:54:39 elements to it. But what I do know is that people got to like you. They got to like you. I met so many talented people that never succeeded. And I can't give you the reason why, because
Starting point is 00:54:55 they write hits for everybody else. I know, listen. Who? No, I can't do that. I can't do that because it's not fair to them. But, no, I can't do that. But if you write hits for people and you get the, you're just doing your money and all that,
Starting point is 00:55:17 and you just want to be lit, I think you're a bird for them. Well, they all want to be lit. So anybody who writes smash hits, everybody. Anybody. Anybody. Okay. Would you rather write smash hits and receive what you posted receive
Starting point is 00:55:35 or get the hits writ for you and be lit and be you? Yeah. No, I'm with you. But what I'm saying to you is unfortunately, I watch. People want to be lit. Yeah, front line. I watch guys who wrote albums. for guys that sold 10, 20 million with that album.
Starting point is 00:55:59 And they filthy, rich, and then they try to do their own album. And when you hear it, it's so fire, right? And then you, like, damn, what is... Beyonce would have sung that. If Usher would have sung that record, if this one would have this, like, you know, they just finished coming from giving out the biggest hits in the world. Then they do their own album.
Starting point is 00:56:22 They're like, all right, it's time for my shit. Can't blame him for wanting to be a star. The album's incredible, too. But they don't go. They put that battery in their back. You're a football star with a helmet on. You're still a star. Yeah, you don't see your face, but still you know.
Starting point is 00:56:39 I know what? Yeah. I know what I'm going to. You got that shit with him, you know what I'm saying? You still a star. You just want to be seen. You just want to be seen. You just want to be seen.
Starting point is 00:56:52 They know it's you. That's how I feel. People got to like you. That's just the bottom line. That's how I feel about, and me, I studied a game. It took me a long time to understand that.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Like, I'm sitting there and, you know, I got friends that are writing, they can write big hits and they want to be artists. And to me, the music's incredible.
Starting point is 00:57:16 These guys are handsome. This woman is beautiful. Yeah. And for some reason, it just don't connect. You know, And that's crazy. You know, sometimes to me, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:27 I guess we all up on this couch because we think we know music. Or sometimes I hear records or I see artists that I know for a fact. I mean, like, oh, no, she's out of here. This guy's out of here and then it don't go. And I'm confused because I'm like, for sure, that was supposed to be out of here. I think it's all God's doing.
Starting point is 00:57:48 I think it's all the, once again, it all came back to people got to like, I always use Cardi B as an example, but people thought she was funny, and they liked her before they ever knew she was ever going to put out a record. And then she put out of here, the Bodak Yellow, you're like, damn, on top of that, this year is fire? It's on. You know, and that's what I, that, you know, if there's any artists out there looking, you got to find a way to get that connection with the people.
Starting point is 00:58:18 And I think that's the most priceless thing, you know, for us, we take it for granted. You think you're a hit maker. You think you're a hit maker. Nah, it's the people. I am a hitman. Yeah. But somebody got to like your hit. And so what I'm saying to you is when you go outside.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Okay. But when you walk out in the stadium and they're, that's the law. That's the blessing. That's the blessing. That's the blessing because some people got music like that. Crickets. Some people got music like that. And cricket mania.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? That's crooked mania. Damn. That's cold. That's cold. I learned that one day. One day I go, I'm performing last year in Ohio.

Starting point is 00:59:42 that day so I could look like a hero. I come back after this in my throat. I'm like, you think your father's whack. Like, I'm tearing this shit down. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? But, you know, it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:59:54 You know, people got to like you. Definitely. That's the end of the day. And that's hard. You got to keep, you know, people don't understand. You got to keep working on that. You got to get that energy and they really fuck with you like that. Because this ain't an overnight thing.
