Speaker 2: show did. It was twenty fourteen in San Francisco.
Speaker 1: He had a tour out there, and I didn't have
Speaker 1: meet and greet money, but I really wanted to meet him,
Speaker 1: and so I waited buy his tour bus after the
Speaker 1: show for hours.
Speaker 3: I don't know what he was doing in there, but.
Speaker 1: It took a long time to come out and praying, man, alright, look, hey,

Speaker 1: that was me.
Speaker 3: Who did that?
Speaker 2: Whoa wow? Did you remind him of that moment?
Speaker 3: I did? I did.
Speaker 1: I did a few years after we started really connecting
Speaker 1: and he was like mind blown because he remembered that night,
Speaker 1: but he didn't know that was me.
Speaker 2: Now, what's the line? You gotta sew where you want
Speaker 2: to go?
Speaker 1: So where you want to go?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's where I learned, you know, in terms of, yeah,
Speaker 1: so where you want to go. And that's even like
Speaker 1: so your time and your efforts into a direction too,
Speaker 1: like wherever you want to go. Like it's not just
Speaker 1: like money per se. But that was that was a
Speaker 1: method I used.
Speaker 2: Man, listen, you gotta do what you gotta do. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: what was the What was the price for the meet
Speaker 2: and greet? Do you remember?
Speaker 3: I think it was like seventy five hours?

Speaker 2: this is gonna work, This is gonna have to work.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, this is gonna do something for me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was. I was super broke.
Speaker 3: But it paid off. Yeah, yeah, thank.
Speaker 2: Here we are man, get well soon. It's an EP.
Speaker 2: The beats are hard on this man, what's that selection?
Speaker 3: Like a man?
Speaker 1: First of all, trying to come. My producers Man Trey
Speaker 1: Wright and Forcing. They go about thirty four thirty four
Speaker 1: where it hits at they go crazy out to see
Speaker 1: me Valley. Really we just locked in and build everything
Speaker 1: from scratch. They made like four out of the six
Speaker 1: and then Cato on the track which like Instagram viral
Speaker 1: producer made gang on there and then there's another one. No,
Speaker 1: he made two of them. Yeah, so my producer made
Speaker 1: four kto made two and we took it from there.
Speaker 2: Crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 4: It's refreshing, bro, because a lot of the West Coast
Speaker 4: hip hop is very just like dark yalladays. So like
Speaker 4: to hear your project like it's very bright, it's very cheerful,
Speaker 4: and it's very happy.
Speaker 2: Like there's a party in that, right, there's a party
Speaker 2: in there.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah, and yeah, thank you for that.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: We try to make slaps for the soul, you know,
Speaker 1: something you can dance to and feel, but it's like
Speaker 1: it's gonna make you feel good, like on the inside,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm trying to lead you into the light,
Speaker 1: you know. So yeah, like we are surrounded by that that.
Speaker 3: I slide on the block with.
Speaker 1: But but rap is all about being authentic to you,
Speaker 1: and that's not authentic to me.
Speaker 3: I'm not sliding on nobody.
Speaker 1: I'm not doing what you know, was normally depicted in
Speaker 1: rap music on the West Coast. So it's like, what
Speaker 1: what does my life look like? Let me put that
Speaker 1: into the music with my personality but still had a
Speaker 1: West Coast sound, and see how far it goes?
Speaker 2: For sure? You know, do you you get judgment by
Speaker 2: other Christians? For sure because of the music you're making?
Speaker 1: For sure?
Speaker 2: Really for sure because what you're talking.
Speaker 1: About, I mean, I mean, but it don't look like
Speaker 1: what they're used to, you know. So those who are judging,
Speaker 1: they're used to one type of ministry, one type of
Speaker 1: music that associates with God and the gospel.
Speaker 3: And so when they look.
Speaker 2: At me, you come breaking barriers down.
Speaker 1: They see somebody that's just trying to get famous or
Speaker 1: try to use God to get rich or whatever. But no, like,
Speaker 1: for one, I was raised in California culture, and two
Speaker 1: I had an authentic encounter with God and I gave
Speaker 1: my life to him. So this this is who I am.
Speaker 2: You feel me. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I wasn't raised on classical music. I wasn't raised on
Speaker 1: like gospel, like hymns. I'm raised on this and so
Speaker 1: this is my language. All I'm doing is speaking my
Speaker 1: language with what I learned and bringing it to the mask.
Speaker 2: Have you encountered protesters at your show?
Speaker 1: For sure? For sure? Several times, like like picking signs, megaphones,
Speaker 1: them quoting my lyrics, like they're like, thank you for
Speaker 1: the promotion. Do you hear what he's saying? Well, first,
Speaker 1: I do like this Christ like on the hat and
Speaker 1: it mats the fit. Can you believe that he's profiting
Speaker 1: off the name of Jesus. I'm okay, y'all. Y'all need
Speaker 1: to repent, y'all need to like, y'all need to chill.
Speaker 1: Some of the fans almost had to square up with
Speaker 1: one of them in front of the Novo last year.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's la Yeah again like that, I'm like Jesus man.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's different, man, Man, We're in the same game,
Speaker 2: love man. But do you have to resist going out
Speaker 2: there yourself and talking to them and getting into a
Speaker 2: heated argument with them? As far as as far as defending.
Speaker 1: Yourself, yes, yes, in person and online.
Speaker 3: But you know what I did.
Speaker 1: I contacted the chief protester, the general of the protesters,
Speaker 1: and I said, let's have a sit down on zoom.
Speaker 3: I want to hear your perspective.
Speaker 1: I want to hear where you're coming from, and I
Speaker 1: want you to hear where I'm coming from. I spent
Speaker 1: three hours with his brother going over scripture, hearing his
Speaker 1: heard him here on mine, and we pray to end
Speaker 1: it really well. And then I've seen this whole army
Speaker 1: of protesters at the next show. I'm okay, like, what
Speaker 1: is going on here? I thought we spoke exactly. But
Speaker 1: some people it's gonna take God himself. It's on them.
Speaker 1: I can't change nobody. All I could do is run
Speaker 1: my race, and it's going to read who it's supposed
Speaker 1: to reach.
Speaker 2: Right, And I listen. You go to church, for sure,
Speaker 2: you pay your tithe right, yeah, yeah, right, you give
Speaker 2: back for sure, you bring people to where you at.
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know if that's being recognized or
Speaker 2: that's being overlooked.
Speaker 1: Right, very unfortunate it is, But you know what, it's
Speaker 1: a lot of people who aren't overlooking it. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of people who are supporting it, a lot of
Speaker 1: people who are buying tickets to the shows and listening
Speaker 1: to the music. And so sometimes we tend to amplify,
Speaker 1: you know, who's not agreeing with it or who's you know,
Speaker 1: coming against it, because they could be louder sometimes. But
Speaker 1: I'm learning to, you know, drown out that noise with
Speaker 1: with the positivity, because there is much more of that
Speaker 1: than there is of this.
Speaker 2: Did you get shot at I did?
Speaker 1: I got shot at? Leaving church? Yeah? Not out here
Speaker 1: in Antioch. Yeah, it's at that moment if you're going
Speaker 1: to Bay, you know about Antioch. I had a car
Speaker 1: full of young people from the church too, like like
Speaker 1: like no seat was empty. My girl was in a
Speaker 1: passenger seat, and then all the kids was in the back.
Speaker 1: We had to stoplight on Sycamore in front of Easy
Speaker 1: Stop Liquor. All of a sudden, two people with ski
Speaker 1: masks on standing on the corner just started firing out
Speaker 1: the vehicle. Was an ambush and we don't know why.
Speaker 1: We don't know if it was mistaken identity or a
Speaker 1: gang initiation. All I know several bullets hit my car
Speaker 1: and one of them hit my power steering, so I
Speaker 1: couldn't even turn.
Speaker 3: I couldn't even turn a wheel.
Speaker 1: I had to just like ski scirt through the red
Speaker 1: lights and this goal like as fast as I could
Speaker 1: to get away.
Speaker 3: And I'm looking around, Is everybody okay? Is everybody okay?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: All them bullets that hit my car, not one bullet
Speaker 1: hit anybody in a full car.
Speaker 3: Wow, nobody got hit.
Speaker 2: How many bullets it was?
Speaker 1: It was at least five, at least five of them joints,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And you would think, you
Speaker 1: would think them being that close, they would they would
Speaker 1: hit somebody.
Speaker 2: In the leg, somebody would get you know, struck in
Speaker 2: an arm or something.
Speaker 3: But that's why. That's why.
Speaker 1: You know, people could try to get scientifical or whatever.
Speaker 1: But it's moments like that that could that convinced me that.
Speaker 1: Can't nobody tell me that God ain't real?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Straight up, I could have been dead, Them kids could
Speaker 1: have been dead, point blank range, and we're alive, all
Speaker 1: of us, not even injured. Come on, man, yeah, God,
Speaker 1: God God's hand on us.
Speaker 2: Come on yeah man.
Speaker 1: Wow, Yeah, that's why I go so hard for God.
Speaker 1: You got to straight up yeah, didn't don't know, Man,
Speaker 1: rescue me from that. M Come on, you know how
Speaker 1: many people get their car shut up and don't live
Speaker 1: to tell the story.

Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: We sold out three years in a row, selling more
Speaker 1: tickets man, by God's grace every single year, and so
Speaker 1: going into the fourth or on pace to like do
Speaker 1: more than we did last year. And really all we're
Speaker 1: doing is cariter to the craving. We're catering to the
Speaker 1: craving that we see on the West Coast where it's
Speaker 1: like people want different alternatives for their events, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like people want to go somewhere whe
Speaker 1: they don't got to look over their shoulder or worry
Speaker 1: about somebody being super drunk and hitting on them and
Speaker 1: slipping something. And they drink, like you get the same
Speaker 1: level of fun, maybe even more fun, but a different
Speaker 1: level of safety where you could turn up and experience
Speaker 1: you know, some holy gooes. Far I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 4: I was DJing in Utah a couple of years ago.
Speaker 4: No one was drunk, but it was lit. M it
Speaker 4: was super lit, and I was like, I couldn't imagine
Speaker 4: a space where nobody was doing anything shasty. Yeah, but
Speaker 4: everybody's on the same level of like dancing and having fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Sometimes it's like like the sore people had
Speaker 1: the most fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like all start weekend in the Bay a few months
Speaker 1: ago was super lit and we got invited to the
Speaker 1: YG concert and for whatever reason, like me and all
Speaker 1: my homies like we were sober, was chilling with me
Speaker 1: and dolls in them and we was the most lit
Speaker 1: in there. Everybody was just like like in the day,
Speaker 1: were like crazy. I'm like, don't I don't need much
Speaker 1: to get going. Sometimes that stuff could like he used
Speaker 1: to weigh me down a lot, so that's right.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well like you're I think I saw on your
Speaker 4: YouTube page like you were in a smoke session which
Speaker 4: eventually led you to God.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah what happened there?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I used to be a big pie head, like
Speaker 1: growing up in the Bay, like that was culture, like
Speaker 1: three blunts a day, cutting school, the smoke, going to
Speaker 1: the smoke shop, panhandling, like mister, if I give you
Speaker 1: five dollars, can you give me a switcher or a blunt? Right,
Speaker 1: like all of that. And so sixteen years old, in
Speaker 1: the middle of a smoking session, my friend Dante was like, hey, bro,
Speaker 1: we should go to church, like with the one in
Speaker 1: his hand.
Speaker 2: Yo.
Speaker 1: We used to go to church and it was a
Speaker 1: Wednesday night. If you know about churches, you know they
Speaker 1: got like Wednesday night services and stuff. And I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: right now, like are you what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Like you must be like super hot, right, what do
Speaker 1: you mean. He's like, no, like this exactly. But he's like, no,
Speaker 1: we can go to the youth group, talk to the girls,
Speaker 1: get their phone numbers.
Speaker 2: It's down the street.
Speaker 1: The youth group be super litle, all the local high schools,
Speaker 1: and so they drug me in there with some hand
Speaker 1: sanitizer and some cologne to get the smell off of me.
Speaker 1: But you know, when we went in there at though,
Speaker 1: it's like we went in there for the wrong reasons.
Speaker 3: But it's like it was almost like a setup from.
Speaker 1: God little key because like guid guided, it was like
Speaker 1: a little bait or whatever. So the youth group was
Speaker 1: closed at night, so we went into the main service
Speaker 1: and God wrecked me.
Speaker 3: Bro.
Speaker 1: I feel like I felt the presence of God for
Speaker 1: the first time.
Speaker 3: The message hit me.
Speaker 1: And it was a packed church, right, like a thousand
Speaker 1: people in there, and the pastor did an ultra call
Speaker 1: that's like where you say, whoever we to accept God,
Speaker 1: come to the front out of everybody in his church.
Speaker 1: I went to the front, crying, real tears, not even
Speaker 1: on really why I'm crying, just feeling like this warmth
Speaker 1: hitting my body.
Speaker 3: I'm like, God, is this you?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 3: Are you real?
Speaker 1: Like what's going on? The pastor pray for me man,
Speaker 1: And then I literally felt like God took away one
Speaker 1: high and gave me a new one. And I never
Speaker 1: forgot that experience. And that was another moment where I said, Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about over there on
Speaker 1: TV or whatever, but hey, I felt God that day
Speaker 1: and I carried that with me to this day.
Speaker 3: For sure.
Speaker 2: Was that the last day he smoked.
Speaker 1: It took me two years from that moment to stop.
Speaker 1: Oh good, yeah, yeah, yeah for sure. The earth yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: it's fine on earth. And yeah it had me, it
Speaker 1: had me broken, hungry all the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, look,
Speaker 1: yeah right, yeah, you feel me, Yeah, I let it go.
Speaker 2: Are there any artists that you would, I don't know,
Speaker 2: not necessarily jump to work with.
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. And I just worked with two of them,
Speaker 1: Lacrae and the forty. You know, I jumped toward them
Speaker 1: immediately because like, those are two of my goats. Like
Speaker 1: think about Bay Area forty is like the guy. You
Speaker 1: know what I mean, you know what I'm saying. But
Speaker 1: what about artists that you wouldn't all this shit? I
Speaker 1: wouldn't work Oh that's that's a tough one.
Speaker 2: Because of their lyrics or because of the content, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Scott Cardi b.
Speaker 1: Well, if if I get on here and say I
Speaker 1: can't work with Travis, somebody can say, well, you worked
Speaker 1: with sb RB, the boy, you worked with Larrussell. You
Speaker 1: worked with these different people, So what's you know, what's
Speaker 1: the difference between the lyrical content and so this this
Speaker 1: is what I think most people, majority of people grew
Speaker 1: up in the house with a praying grandma, or grew
Speaker 1: up going to Eastern Service Church on Mother's Day, New
Speaker 1: Year's Eve, watch night services.
Speaker 3: Everybody got a little bit of God in them. Somewhere somehow, right.
Speaker 1: I believe everybody has a certain type of story to
Speaker 1: tell where we can relate on that level, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, regardless of their music catalog, I think
Speaker 1: we could find a common ground and make a slap
Speaker 1: for the soul.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: And I just got I made a song with G
Speaker 1: Eazy two weeks ago and it's it's it's a it's
Speaker 1: a banger.
Speaker 2: Man letting me go here man.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I got you, Man, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: got you.
Speaker 4: How do you how do you get all these rappers
Speaker 4: to not cuss? Because, like when I saw it was
Speaker 4: you Plow and the Boy, I was like, this is
Speaker 4: gonna be interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love the boy.
Speaker 4: And then you also got e forty to not cuss.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you got Yellow Hill to not cuss?
Speaker 2: I'm like, bro, how how do you do this? Well?
Speaker 1: They know, they know when they get a song with me,
Speaker 1: they're stepping into my world, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: And they legitimately respect it. They respected They listen to
Speaker 1: the music that they're fans so that they understand like
Speaker 1: the wave that I'm on, And so I don't I
Speaker 1: don't even got to say much really, I I never
Speaker 1: had to tell somebody not to cuss.
Speaker 3: They just know.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, now they respect it, right, yeah, and they
Speaker 2: know what it is. Yeah. Yeah, but it's a challenge also,
Speaker 2: I think as well. And there's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I think I think real rappers welcome
Speaker 1: that challenge.
Speaker 3: I want to see if I could do it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I got You, I Got You.
Speaker 1: But now the boy, the boy, he wasn't cussing. But
Speaker 1: that's like probably the third version of that verse.
Speaker 2: Do it again.
Speaker 1: I'm like, look, I can't say that. I can't you
Speaker 1: say that. The boy like, we can't talk about stealing
Speaker 1: somebody girlfriend on his song Wow.
Speaker 3: I Got You, I Got You.
Speaker 1: YEA watched it and this part too, can you just
Speaker 1: switch that too? But no, he was gracious man, and
Speaker 1: that's right. Yeah, most people are.
Speaker 2: So it would be hard to do a song with
Speaker 2: Playboy CARDI.
Speaker 1: Then we yeah, so, I mean, it's it's really interesting.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I was out rolling out this year. I was blessed
Speaker 1: to be a part of that joint and so I
Speaker 1: seen I've seen it set right now. He makes he
Speaker 1: makes some slabberies, he makes some bangers, right, but a
Speaker 1: lot of the imagery. I'm not saying I wouldn't make
Speaker 1: a song with him, But what I would do is
Speaker 1: like sit down with him, ask some questions, right, like Yo,
Speaker 1: what does this mean here? Like are you actually a
Speaker 1: double worshiper? Or is this just like the persona? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And if he is about that life,
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll make a song with me, you.
Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But that's not saying that. Yeah, for sure, but I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't automatically shut that out. Maybe maybe God could
Speaker 1: use us to be a part of his journey to
Speaker 1: becoming you know, you know, a different version of himself
Speaker 1: for sure.
Speaker 2: What job did you get fired from?
Speaker 3: Have you been to the bank before?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, so there's a.
Speaker 2: Briefly I went for a day or two, I think.
Speaker 1: A Well, for those who grew up in the Bay,
Speaker 1: there's a credit union that I'm sure you've drove by
Speaker 1: and Fairfield, Richmond conquered Travis Credit Union. Travis Credit Union
Speaker 1: was a job that I took in twenty nineteen and
Speaker 1: it paid good. It was the best job I ever
Speaker 1: had at that time. And you know, I had a
Speaker 1: history of quitting jobs, chasing a rap dream prematurely right, Like, no,
Speaker 1: I have the faith. I believe I'm gonna be famous.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this for God and it's.
Speaker 3: Gonna work out.
Speaker 1: But it didn't work out because what I was doing,
Speaker 1: I was rushing God instead of trusting God. Right, That's
Speaker 1: how I looked at it. But when I took this
Speaker 1: Travis job, I was like, I pray the prayer honestly, God, bro,
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, God, Like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: keep this job as long as you want me to
Speaker 1: keep it. If you want me to be an artist,
Speaker 1: if you want me to be full time musician, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna let you do it whenever you want to do it.
Speaker 1: And then I just kept working. But while I'm working,
Speaker 1: the music started working. And there was a conflict because
Speaker 1: I told God I wasn't gonna quit, but it's booming
Speaker 1: in the music. And so one night me and my
Speaker 1: wife prayed this prayer with tears in her eyes. We said,
Speaker 1: we need you to do something because we're at this job.
Speaker 1: We told you wasn't gonna quit, but it's popping. Please
Speaker 1: do something to let us know what to do. Next morning,
Speaker 1: I went to work and they fired me. The next morning, Nah,
Speaker 1: the next.
Speaker 3: Wow, that's morning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man.

Speaker 2: aren't being answered, but they're not necessarily looking at it
Speaker 2: in the correct way or in another way or outside
Speaker 2: of the way. They only know how to look at it.
Speaker 2: Is that Is that correct? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, some people. You know, my pastor said this yesterday

Speaker 1: it's still an answer, right, or maybe he answers you
Speaker 1: in a different way. You know, a lot of people,

Speaker 1: you in a situation that requires patients to develop patients
Speaker 1: within you instead of downloading patients in a moment, he'll
Speaker 1: he'll have you cultivated through situations. Right, So it's not
