working man
oh wait yeah how you like being a rapper
so far man
i've been going up yeah yeah this past
year a year and a half now
i mean it's lovely being a rapper but
you know you got to take some pain
while you're with it so you see what i'm
saying so it's lovely with me though
it's all smiles but you got to hustle
for the rest of your life
yep that's what's up man so what's life
like in memphis man
i mean it's a jungle but you know it's a
to you
you know the jungle you go in so he's a good
good
it's a good part of the jungle it's a
bad part of the junkies in the middle
if you you're going to be normal or
you're going to be that person with the money
money
i'd rather be the first with the one
that i ain't trying to be normal you
ain't gonna make it to work
yeah what part of the city you're from frasier
frasier
okay bay area yeah yeah a lot of talent
coming out of the fraser area
that's the real part of normandy like
she know me which is north memphis
but frasier look this the country part
of little maybe like
it's the that's the low part of the
little memphis
yeah yeah so what was your childhood
like growing up there
uh i really i really just grew up in
manchester like that i'm from louisiana
oh really yeah okay tallulah
sunderhammer he's jonathan so that's
three hours and
50 minutes away from memphis like it's
like i was back and forth
me for louisiana losing so but it's
it's cool growing up in memphis though
it's it taught me a lot
yeah like i really set back i ain't make
friends like this
oh really i really i tried to see who
was winning
who what click is clicking now they did
i just really say they're like
okay deal with these they all right here
dude they all
so i rather could be what they own to
get where they hit each other saying so
so how did memphis compare to louisiana
then members ain't messing with louisiana
louisiana
i mean but members they talking though
they thugging they got their own
type of slang but louisiana colorado like
like
he's raw all the way wrong you can't he's
he's
wrong what age would you say you jumped
off the porch
my 17
okay 17. i was really i was
really like a little school boy like
he's sixteen fifteen but seventeen i was
thugging his own
what happened between sixteen and
seventeen now i mean i was still a
mama's boy you see i'm saying like i was
i was going through it like i was like
the struggle was real for me
but i was always under my mama though
because i was trying to see like
what really life is like like what you
crying for like
what's wrong with you i was trying to
see what was her
emotions you shoot him saying so i was
trying to go and see what the pain was
so what i can fix
of me becoming the man hoping to see
like how i'm gonna you know then
so now i know now i know for sure now i know
know
so did you finish school yeah yeah
graduated okay go graduate
no i didn't go to college i could have
went to college though
but i was already rapping okay like
mom's old we don't even
know college but i mean college good
though don't get me wrong
i would have went to college yeah but
rapping took off before i even went to college
college
so i was like he's all we did i already
made my point
yeah what did you want to be before you
were a rapper what were you trying to be
i wanted to be a drum major
oh yeah like i wanted to be like a drum
like like drumline my favorite move of
dancing and stump the yard and all that
so i want to be a drum major i want to go
go
i want to be a teacher drum major of
dancing like get my own dancing team and
you know then but the rapping came above
and i was like
the rabbit shot off of everything i'm
like whoa
so can you still play the drums i'm not
a player i know how to play the uh
the snare and i play the bass drum and i
do do the uh
dude i think the symbols yeah they did
the symbols
and i still not do my drum agents but i
i'll be trying but that was great okay
what was one of the biggest life lessons
you had to learn
my life for real like really like pain like
like
you can't you can't originate you gotta
gotta check the process and so like you
can't rush nothing did this
is bringing a blessing to you that what
i really learned
i learned anybody can turn on you i
learned anybody can
say they love you but they really don't
i learned people can use you
i learned people can really just my
i'll forgive him i just you i just
squeezed him just to
hurt people hurt people you see what i'm
saying so like a heart person can come
hurt you and you'll let them
and you only know they hurt you oh yeah
until somebody else tell you about them
that they heard before
i mean yeah that's how you go yeah what
was one of the biggest sacrifices you
had to make to make it where you're at today
why oh no they don't say that question
right there
oh not elsie dude just like time away
from you
you know your daughter chasing this dream
dream
i mean nah cause i spent time with my
daughter for sure
i got to do that but like seeing my
daddy leave like that was [Music]
[Music]
that threw me our way off of life
like i never knew death was a real
period like i never thought that when i
was young 16 15
people getting killed i'm hearing about
it and i ain't believing in under they
don't like
am i going to come back alive or what
they talk about i'm not believing death
you shouldn't say
like when i lost my dad it was over i
knew it was real
so if i see him if i lose him i might
lose somebody else
but i can't stop god for what he doing
he's on saying if
there's a reason for everything if
something happens it's meant to happen
if you don't have it ain't meant to happen
happen
yeah so hey igj gotta they gotta thank
god and pray to him every day
how long ago was it that your pops
passed right like
i was it was 2010 2010
no like 2016.
he was in 2016 2015 one and then
yeah were you and him real close
real close yeah real close but he's like
i was in
i was in louisiana he was in eudora arkansas
arkansas
you see what i'm saying so like i couldn't
couldn't
he now he was a russellville
russellville like an hour away
from louisiana and he was
he was always doing his own thing but
he's like when he seen me
like he couldn't he know what to do i
ain't know what to do i ain't i couldn't
even fix my mouth and say pops or none
of it
like cause i ain't got no history he's like
like
we talking a lot but we're not seeing
each other a lot so that's how i feel
like we was close on the phone
conversation-wise giving me game but i
didn't see you though
you know what i'm saying but he's like
but he's like when he died though i was
there like i see him
that's what i'm saying it was a little crazy
crazy
sure that's where a lot of the pain and
your music comes from then huh
for sure but like my now i did
like my daddy died they would have made
my attitude go left
like stop caring about a lot you see
what i'm saying but my pain come from
my mama crying like in my face like
i ain't with none of you i don't i don't
care what it is i need to fix it
cause my dad ain't here to fix it i'm
saying so
i mean my mom was never married to my
dad and none of that
but they bombed with everything like she
called him he pulled up and
wiki though that's a lot to deal with man
man
a lot to deal with yeah
all right so how long you been making
music now being my third year
that's it mm-hmm okay it's my third year
enjoying it
it's my second year i was still striving
so i'm saying like i was still going
hard at it my first year
i didn't really take it serious but i
wanted it though but i never take it serious
serious
but i was taking my drum agent series
more than
my this studio because i was like i got
ain't gonna blow about it
i ain't gonna happen
every time i have a show i get chills
every time i say i don't like
because i really be i feel some type of
way like
this person really took their time out
to listen to me
watch my pages really know who i am like
interviewers they'd be watching me this
video they'd be paying attention to my
dances and
they would do something to me they they
milked me right there i liked it yeah
they're coming out their pocket to come
see you too oh for sure
my concert people said they want 100 uh
i got 300 to get to get the line i was
like what
i give y'all money back man i tell you
who'd you grow up listening to boosie
i grew up listening to [ __ ] lil wayne
or and like and when i got to memphis
i ain't really just listening to nobody
like that but y'all got it
you know acon
you know you know real legendary like
like hey
my dad love akon so he put me on him
okay they called like a different breed
of black
you john's answer and i went and i was
liking his vibe he got that red that
reggae music like they
they they up way like i liked it
so what was the first big song that you had
do you have to be a big song first one i
really gave you kind of like a buzz
a life story okay a song called life story
story
then i know i feel it then it was um
see no evil never they really me they
were like this divorce
you know evil you know he was
i still i bumped it but i don't but like
when i'm by myself with someone smoking this
they realized my voice but life story i
was just rapping
but i didn't know i could have it like
that but life i mean see no evil that
was the jungle
you been surprised at all by how many
people [ __ ] with your music or tuning in
yeah i love my fans i love them folks
i never thought i'd be you something i
never thought
it kind of too fast for me it happened
like in the blink of an eye to me
like i ain't was like when i started
rapping i kept going i didn't look back
so so if you look back you might want to
stay back there
what you looking back for that's that's
the point about you going forward
you don't suppose once you keep going
you got to keep going
don't look back somebody might grab on
to you distract you
before you can't do it so you gotta go
keep going so when i did it
and i look back these people that i knew
they were still back there they were like
like
you took off fans bro you i'm like what
like i'm thinking i ain't i'm thinking
he's going in motion
hey like i took off fast so i took it
these days so it was oh
i was thugging him
so what's your thoughts on the rap game
so far since you've been in it
i learned i learned a lot but it's like
but it's a lot i need to keep
knowing like let me rephrase it well
it's a lot i know but it's more i need
to learn
something so like i know i know a lot now
now
that i'm not a slow rapper like i'm a
small dude
like i'm smart my my man city my heart
it be
like i'm not i'm not i'm not i'm not
dumb at all i know what's up
i know how to do the being and i'm still
learning being
that i don't know but i know enough
to take care of my family right now i
know enough to keep moving to keep bees
like i know enough to stand team as an
artist right now
but being a legendary like being a real
big dog
boss i got to keep learning yeah
yeah that's real so how did the deal
with cmg come about
um i was already buzzing
i had a song called singing shots let me know
know
got you little stuff like this so i
already had hits
i had like that when i was gone i had a
mistake called paint on paper three
then my last mistake i did and i started
doing singles
you see what i'm saying so i mean they
came about when i dropped let me know
yeah before y'all let me know right
about that time
because i had a show in mississippi i
forgot where it was but it was a mississippi
mississippi
and i left mississippi that show and
they called from a new york number and
i'm like what
i'm like what was this like i don't that
nobody calling me no big numbers right now
now
so they called they were like yo fly to
new york and i'm like
who it is he said they were like you
know you know this cmg this yo got it
and i flew out the next morning i
flooded this morning they booked my
flight over the night
and i got there you saw them saying i
was with them they were like 2018.
they were like 2018 because i was you know
know
2015 2016 2017 that when i rep them
so that was i started rapping after my
daddy played they're right about that
time you see what i'm saying so
like then 2018 then one night when he
popped off
2019 boom that's 20 20. so hey
yeah did you have other labels reaching
out to you
yeah yeah it's more labels it's just
coming towards me
but i'd be so focused like i won't be
paying attention because i'm saying so
now i got a person my manager now i got
a person that's really over me like
like he got my back on got to turn
around you see i'm saying like
like literally like i can i can i can
trust him with [ __ ]
i mean you know i could you know you
know like we are we're a team and like
but it like we started off as as as partners
partners
but it turned into a team now it turned
to a whole family like
you see what i'm saying so yeah
now he teach me the game you should say
like to keep going
so now what i know now he added on to
what i know
i know a lot you see what i'm saying
like i'm a small young dude like
you ain't telling me nothing you think
all right what can you tell us about
final nightmare this ep that you just dropped
dropped
i want to go i want to put most songs on there
there
i i promise to god i did because i got
so much music i can keep going however
they want to do it
and some of those were already out too
yeah someone was already out
but it's like it's like i got everything
in the head like man like this
and it's like man that guy then i gotta
come with a tape so i ain't dropped the
tape in like two years
i smoked the bin dropped it but i
couldn't drop him though
because i'm like mine is crazy but now i
dropped it
and he just it was you know he was all
amount of time though
yeah and the number is like
my when i when i mean like final like
i'm done with the pi
i'm done with the negative i'm doing
everything that happened to me
like anything they [ __ ] do they count
my way i'm done with they're with the
final man like
i'm done i'm finally done with the
nightmare i mean like you said i'm
saying like oh he's gonna get ugly with
me now
now you got to see me like i ain't you
know i ain't playing no games no more
nice so you show that you're nice
looking you know around halloween
yeah it was a good time and everything
so nice it's filthy now
they never thought i'd have a song with
dave lopez
i'm saying that uh buddy you know
your god you sure i'm saying i mean it's
hard to get he said he's hard to touch them
them
like on the way on the way you're gonna
get in the game if you
if you connected with somebody or you
see what i'm saying so
i mean hey i just do me you gotta you
gotta keep working to to somebody look
at you
or people can see you and still look
over you but
it's a reason why they looking over you
you missing something
or you moving wrong or they might
see something right people that rap they
can see something in you
but you know some people they rap they
might they might they
might they heart might be bad they might
not want to look at you they might know you
you
he might be bigger than me i don't even
wanna i can't think like this though so
i just beat me though i just go along i
and uh mental healing man this song
went crazy what type of emotions were
you going through when you recorded this
i don't know i don't know like
i i ain't gonna lie every every any
interview i'm have i'm gonna say
i don't know because now
i now let me rephrase that at first
about mental healing
i ain't know why i felt i ain't know
what was going on in my head
i just feel like i just feel like god
just gave me a message like
okay deliver this to the people this no
selfish thing
you know and it wasn't for me i don't
feel like it for me
i just feel like it was a mission from
god to sin on and that would happen so
that's why that song big like
that was a gift from god so i hey i did
what i did what i had to do
and he got me he got me he moved me
further than what i was
just did one song you said i'm saying
something that was that might just god
give me to him
look at the nine more minutes like hey people
people
hey man i'm telling you right these
people be telling me my guy
my daughter i love my daughter she the
person i convene to
and i'm like my daughter wasn't even
born when i made this song
my daughter my big mom was five months
pregnant i just knew my daughter was
gonna be born though because you know
some people luke miscarriages and you
know babies don't make it
i knew for sure guy offering to bring my
my child i gotta got on me right now
it's a shirt she on my jacket right here
you know
she's all saying so it's my baby though
she's on there and she is and i and i
really think i i really thank my baby
mama for
for that because like my daughter came
from my career
like if i were never rapping i would
never had no child but that's how i feel
you shouldn't land and my baby going fast
fast
like literally like she's gonna be one like
like
real like so wait it would make me go
harder in my mirrors you like if they
would make me
if i were moving too fast they would
stop me right there they were gonna slow
me down like
okay move change your circle
um get my just get get deep in your music
music
this this one made for you right here
music and then look
what does it mean to you when you get
those type of messages from fans that
you know
it helped them get through a difficult
situation that they were going through
or that they could relate to it so much
i mean it warmed me up because i be
feeling like a therapy sometimes
like that what i want to be though like
i don't want to be no rapper on my whole life
life
i want to be a therapist like really
really a billionaire to sit back
you got to really put your face in my
gate to get in
like you got to book me online to just
tell me about your life and i'm a tear
i'm responding to you
in my church like i want my chair gold
like i want to be a therapist i want to
help people get through what they're doing
doing
i'm good at it like i can i can change
people move swing
like i can make you happy like literally
like you can be mad
sad and whatever we have a whole talk
your demeanor gonna change
you and you'll be around me all day
every day and i'll let you be around me
all day every day
but a bad but a bad hearted person need
her to talk to you
let you vent to them none of it you
don't saying that mean you don't want to
be helped
some people don't meant to be meant to
be helped so wait
does that be that live performance video
you put up with
holding your daughter while you know
you're singing the song that that [ __ ]
was really dope man
it was hard that's how i know my baby
like music
because when she made the noise yeah she
was really crying
she people think she she was saying no
she was whining she didn't have a pencil
in her mouth so but when i started
rapping and i started vibing
she just got quiet and swear with my
hand tight
and he showed that they were and they
were and they would make me just flow it
he said what i'm saying
maybe just go in on it i need i ain't
cuffed no aliens no no no not just
straight raw
and and i ain't made no it was hard
and everybody know my baby like yeah
yeah so when i broke out for my birthday
bed they like
it's real like like my favorite part she famously
famously
you know she's part of his career yeah i
feel like
she i feel like she may be boogie 2020.
she wasn't made i feel like she made my
mind [ __ ] go this way
i feel like she made me be a be a big
dude who i am like
okay yeah i'm like i'm a real dad and then
then
i ain't just no i'm just no young man no
more like i'm a dad in that so
i mean i'm grown wrong i'm a grown man
john so for sure did you do that video
in one take
one take no missile that's true it's all
god for me right
i mean there's god with me right there
all right what about in session man this
one went crazy too man
i would i was high
i ain't write this song i freestyled it
but i
i ain't freestyling because freestyling
means just going straight through
it just saying stuff but it's but you
got to make it make sense
that's a mind thing i was punching in on incision
incision
i was kissing me one more time one more
vacation for a month
then i and i'm looking at my people like
we're gonna take their faith
i was just looking at my people that's
in the studio you know i'm saying so
you know in session i ain't liking says
i ain't taking serious or not
really my little brother my brother cute
and my manners are comfortable for him
they look they love insane and i was like
like
i ain't just feeling it i don't skate on

because i shot the video really just i
was thinking how to do the video
with my but my dude camera guy he shoot
me the video he shot the video
and he was like bro you're like bro the
song doing it by itself
you just vibe smoke you just lay back
it's a laid back song but it's

feel like harder than
all right gotta ask you about your chain

that thing you can't miss it
yeah i got this my boy he
got here no kill you know
and i and i were like i want to change
like i want to offer you a chain like
he was like i want to go rap a big man
because i always wanted a big chain i
always wanted one yeah
so i'm like i ain't playing you i want
to change

my hustle you sean's answer

like even though you're a hustler
yourself but it's
it's always good for another hustler to
give you the game
you know i'm saying like i got plenty of
grown hustlers
they give me gang plenty like literally

and they all do like a young dude can't
tell me that
not what you're telling me for what you

hell because he know a lot
he know more than he been what you
