Longer consciousness, like they had a conference and hand with

10
00:00:44,359 --> 00:00:45,960
the plan that was handed up on this, but we

Speaker 3: Birch life will win.

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 5: The issue together.

28
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: There will be sicy they just planned to see the ideas.

29
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 4: The life will never be their people grab the reins

30
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,359
and maybe it would be my pleasure.

31
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,879
Speaker 6: Let's just so wit down up bit will take a

32
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,120
break from all this.

33
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:45,439
Speaker 3: We'll have oh.

34
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,159
Speaker 1: Mint with our kids, or give some one a good

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,159
night yiss.

36
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 3: So let's not again hold on. There's not the whole

37
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,359
arm reason for this, that the present.

38
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: Is a gift to half of the work we put

39
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:02,200
in the good, in the with a nothing and crying

40
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,079
because the guest thing.

41
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 3: Is tying the trying to see you and be seen

42
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:06,719
in be Dave with something too, with the day you

43
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:07,400
were dying.

44
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:10,319
Speaker 1: Breaking the boundary set up by somebody sum up to

45
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:10,719
sell us.

46
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:11,759
Speaker 5: It's nobody's business.

47
00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: It's simple and difference. It's making no difference. In fact,

48
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,479
it's like physics, grevity versus somebody. If we stack them up,

49
00:02:16,479 --> 00:02:18,439
flatten doutter stick them in basis, I'm good with those

50
00:02:18,479 --> 00:02:20,240
placements on one and in case me that you can

51
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,120
look into one down through the age and just treat

52
00:02:22,159 --> 00:02:23,960
me you and placed on my throne, turn and pages.

53
00:02:26,439 --> 00:02:26,840

67
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,599
back on the show. It's it's been a little while.

68
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, it has been been a little while.

69
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,439
Speaker 7: You've been busy. That that track, of course, the sixth

70
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:10,599
sonata great.

71
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 5: I love that, Thank you, thank you so much.

72
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,479
Speaker 7: I got a question about that right off the top.

73
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,439
So and I've noticed this was some of your other

74
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,800
songs too, like is it is it difficult to because

75
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,599
your your flow, your style is so like how do

76
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,000
you have time to breathe while you're you know, especially

77
00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:31,120
like like the song starts and that first verse comes

78
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,759
in and it's like, oh my god, like how does

79
00:03:32,759 --> 00:03:33,360
he even do that?

80
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 5: Yeah?

81
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: So, so first I have to write the songs, obviously,

82
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:45,800
and I try to I try to write it as

83
00:03:46,719 --> 00:03:49,400
like a single a single verse that like the first

84
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,400
set of time or course at a time. Yeah, And

85
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,719
I try to try to make that as complicated as

86
00:03:55,719 --> 00:03:56,759
I can a.

87
00:03:58,639 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 5: Lyrically.

88
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: And then and I'll practice it over and over and

89
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,199
over again. Yeah, find where to put the breaths. Okay,

90
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,680
So I take a lot of really fast, sharp breaths.

91
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 7: Yeah.

92
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 5: Yeah. If you listen really closely, sometimes you can hear them.

93
00:04:13,199 --> 00:04:13,759
Speaker 7: Oh okidding.

94
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.

95
00:04:14,719 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 7: No, it's impressive when you're writing these, because I mean

96
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,000
that song is is one example I've noticed. I mean,

97
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,600
that's your style and a lot of these, like I said,

98
00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:26,040
when you're writing them, do you ever do you ever think,

99
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,160
m this might be too much? I don't know, or

100
00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:31,000
do you just write it and then it's like Okay,

101
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,800
now now I have to live up to the challenge

102
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,560
that I've created for myself and I wrote it. Now

103
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,199
I got to do it.

104
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 5: That's that's exactly it. Yeah.

105
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:42,199
Speaker 1: I love to challenge myself. I love to to push

106
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,800
myself past my boundaries. Yea, And I mean that's that's

107
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,480
the reason that I've gotten this far in my musical

108
00:04:49,519 --> 00:04:51,399
career is because of that pushing and pushing.

109
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 5: Yeah.

110
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 7: Yeah. Another thing too, I've noticed about a lot of

111
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,240
your songs is, you know, there seems to be a theme.

112
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,040
You know, there's a lot of empowerment, positivity, but without

113
00:05:02,079 --> 00:05:04,360
being preachy, which is cool because you can, you know,

114
00:05:04,399 --> 00:05:05,959
you can beat somebody over the head with it and

115
00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:08,160
then and actually push them away with that stuff too.

116
00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:11,959
But but you presented in a way that is fun,

117
00:05:12,519 --> 00:05:13,879
for lack of a better word, I mean, it's just

118
00:05:13,959 --> 00:05:16,560
kind of fun to The songs are fun, they're fun

119
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,480
to listen to. But also but they're not preachy. They're

120
00:05:20,519 --> 00:05:23,680
just more like kind of encouraging and and and unity too.

121
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,240
That seems to be a theme too. There's a lot

122
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,680
of you know, like in that track, in the lyrics,

123
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,240
there's a lot of you know, we're in this together,

124
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:30,439
you know.

125
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, so there's there's just so much negativity

126
00:05:35,399 --> 00:05:40,959
and and like segregation and and division, and there's just

127
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:46,000
there's so much of that apparent in every industry, and

128
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,040
I just want to, you know, I want to bring

129
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:48,800
a different message.

130
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 5: You know.

131
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,959
Speaker 1: It's that we don't have to versus each other. You know,

132
00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:55,120
we can we can work together and work off of

133
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:55,560
each other.

134
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 5: And and I mean.

135
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 1: Obviously I feel really strongly about those ideals. So it

136
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,560
it's it comes through I wouldn't say easily, but but

137
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,079
it flows into the musical creation. You know, like I'll

138
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,519
get I'll get a basic idea and then, like I

139
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,680
try to, I try to give myself a subject.

140
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:19,519
Speaker 5: And then.

141
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,439
Speaker 1: Along with that that subject, I like to keep that,

142
00:06:24,879 --> 00:06:28,720
you know, the togetherness and the community and the positivity

143
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,720
and try to wrap it all up into to one,

144
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:34,120
you know, nice little package.

145
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 7: Yeah. So since the last time we talked, it sounds like,

146
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,720
you know, we talked a little bit off air. It

147
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:40,879
sounds like you've been pretty busy.

148
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, super super busy. I've done I've done at

149
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,120
least two shows a month since since the since the

150
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:51,600
last radio show. Yeah, and I still host an open

151
00:06:51,639 --> 00:06:54,639
mic once a month. Excellent through positive street art okay,

152
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:55,839
And we talked about them before.

153
00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're they're still going super strong too. Uh. We

154
00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:03,040
got big moves from making this year excellent.

155
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,639
Speaker 7: What else, Well, that's a lot there. Can you actually,

156
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,519
can you tell us a little bit more about positive

157
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,000
street art? And I know we've talked about it before,

158
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,720
but for newer listeners who might not know, because this

159
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,120
is a this is a great thing that a lot

160
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,279
of people probably aren't aware of.

161
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: So that's a It's a nonprofit based out of National Newmpshire.

162
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,759
We've we've kind of spread our wings a bit and

we do a bunch of stuff in Manchester, Yeah, and

164
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:29,199
Excellent and and a few other places too. But it's

170
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,800
and it was the second year we did it, and

171
00:07:52,839 --> 00:07:55,879
it was it was a big hit. I think eventually

172
00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,720
it might uh, it'll keep expanding, you know, kind of

173
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:05,000
like the Winter Stroll in in in Nashua. It you know,

174
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,680
it started out as as whatever, and now it's grown too.

175
00:08:08,279 --> 00:08:11,480
You know, ten thousand or more people show up every

176
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:14,800
year for it. So I'm we're we're hoping that the

177
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,920
Summer Stroll, you know kind of it builds momentum and

178
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:21,879
we can grow every year. But it's you know, it's

179
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:27,240
a it's a great it's a great organization to get into.

180
00:08:27,519 --> 00:08:30,959
Not only for just you know, to get a mural

181
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,919
painted on your wall or whatever, but we have tons

182
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:44,840
of programs for for different communities, you know, for for

183
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:48,720
painting and for for uplifting and you know, the whole

184
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:54,960
community thing. I also run the I host open mics

185
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,320
through Positive street Art and and that's you know that

186
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,559
that part of it, it was, you know, part of

187
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,919
it was was a way for me to to expand

188
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,960
my my ability to get on the mic or get

189
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,399
on a stage. Now I was I was at the

190
00:09:13,399 --> 00:09:19,240
beginning of the of the of the the whole music

191
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:22,320
thing that I've been doing. Yeah, and uh, and I

192
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,360
you know, I kind of decided, you know, if I

193
00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:27,320
don't just have random places, you know, a lot of

194
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,559
times I went to a few open mics over the

195
00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:32,279
years and stuff, and and I I like the I

196
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:34,639
like the feel of it and everything, and and I

197
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,039
was like, you know, I could I could probably do

198
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,559
something myself like this through Positive street art, you know,

199
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:44,559
because it's you know, it's a music is is intertwined

200
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,080
and and and everything, right, you know, it's just as

201
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:52,879
much part of the the urban culture as anything else. Absolutely, so,

202
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:55,559
so yeah, you know, I I I felt I wanted

203
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,039
a place where I could you know, improve my craft yea,

204
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,600
and build up my stage presence.

205
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, and smart smart way to go about it.

206
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

207
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,879
Speaker 1: And then and then at the same time, it's giving

208
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:11,639
a place for other people with the same mindset as

209
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,360
me where where they don't they're not ready for a

210
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,720
big crowd or something like that, and they want to start,

211
00:10:16,879 --> 00:10:19,399
you know, honing their craft. So you know, you get

212
00:10:19,399 --> 00:10:22,080
on the mic in front of a very very limited crowd.

213
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:24,039
You know, not a lot of people show up to it,

214
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,120
so so a lot of times it's just, uh, it's

215
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,679
just a six minds combined jam session.

216
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:33,519
Speaker 7: Okay, okay, Where does this happen? Where do you do?

217
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: It's at Positive Shootout headquarters in Nash, New Hampshire.

218
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 5: It's at forty eight Bridge Street, third floor, okay, oh,

219
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,080
very cool. Yeah.

220
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,519
Speaker 1: If if you look us a positive shootout dot org,

221
00:10:44,799 --> 00:10:48,879
we're always posting different things that we're doing. We curate

222
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:58,000
a bunch of like artists, and not just at our headquarters,

223
00:10:58,039 --> 00:10:59,720
but at different places. I know there's a couple of

224
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:02,519
places in Manchester that we get things that I don't.

225
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,320
I don't know all the names of the program. There's

226
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,200
so much.

227
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,919
Speaker 7: Which is that's good. There's a lot going on there

228
00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:09,480
that's excellent.

229
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

230
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 7: So, so was that was positive street art before? Like,

231
00:11:14,519 --> 00:11:17,919
in other words, were you doing that before Six Minds

232
00:11:17,919 --> 00:11:19,200
Combined became.

233
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 5: So?

234
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,399
Speaker 1: So I've been I've been doing I've been making music

235
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,480
and I had the whole Six Minds Combined Moniker for

236
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,639
years and years and years. Okay, but I wasn't doing anything.

237
00:11:32,759 --> 00:11:35,960
I just made music for fun for myself, yeah, and

238
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,480
uh and friends or whatever. And you know, I I

239
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,360
I always had the hope that you know, someday it

240
00:11:41,399 --> 00:11:45,879
would become something, but but it wasn't. It wasn't the drive,

241
00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:51,440
you know. And then I had I had gotten into

242
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,720
some trouble and I had to do community service. Yeah,

243
00:11:54,919 --> 00:11:59,720
my friend Gillian Anderson pointed me towards U positive street

244
00:11:59,799 --> 00:12:03,440
art and and at the time, my very good friend

245
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,679
to this day, Tom Lopez, he was the vice president,

246
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,919
and he kind of took me under his wing and

247
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:14,480
and uh and I screamed through all the community service

248
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,360
hours and they were like, hey, you know you you're

249
00:12:17,399 --> 00:12:19,559
you've been doing this. You want to continue to do this.

250
00:12:20,759 --> 00:12:23,519
And then shortly after that, I was like, of course

251
00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:25,559
I do. And then shortly after that they're like, hey,

252
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,759
well you want to join our board.

253
00:12:27,279 --> 00:12:29,159
Speaker 5: And so I've been. I've been on their board of

254
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,440
directors for for a bunch of years now. I think

255
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:32,399
it's fantastic.

256
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:35,919
Speaker 1: I think it's you know, coming on ten years part

257
00:12:35,919 --> 00:12:36,759
of that organization.

258
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 5: Yeah wow.

259
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: And so you know, we've we've had dance programs, we've

260
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,360
had we've had all sorts of stuff.

261
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 5: And I was, you know, just hit me.

262
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: At one point, I was like, you know what, why

263
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,639
don't I Why don't I, you know, introduced the musical

264
00:12:51,759 --> 00:12:55,600
side of this to to the to you know what,

265
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,519
because there was dancing and you know, things like that,

266
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,840
and I was I was like, you know, but like

267
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:04,679
like at CORE, I'm a musician, and I felt like

268
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,759
that needed to be a part of the whole positive

269
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:10,399
street art thing. So yeah, so that I came up

270
00:13:10,399 --> 00:13:13,399
with the idea for the open mic and and.

271
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 5: The rest of the board loved it.

272
00:13:14,879 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they jumped on it, and and we've been

273
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,200
doing it ever since.

274
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,279
Speaker 7: So when you started doing the open mics, was that

275
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,639
what kind of like did you already have the idea

276
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,759
that if if these open mics go well and I

277
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:32,240
feel confident in front of an audience, maybe I'll kind

278
00:13:32,279 --> 00:13:33,759
of start to do more with six minds.

279
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,399
Speaker 1: That's yeah, it was basically hand in hand, you know.

280
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:43,960
I had the idea for the open mic, yeah, and

281
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,039
then it was you know, facilitating the equipment to do that.

282
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,960
Originally they were thinking about buying the stuff and I

283
00:13:51,039 --> 00:13:55,960
was then I I I had a conversation with the

284
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,399
person I was making music with at the time. They

285
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,240
wanted to go off and do a different project and

286
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,840
sat down with me and was like, hey, you know,

287
00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:08,120
we've been making all this stuff together. He's like, I don't.

288
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,840
I don't expect anything out of it, you know, I don't.

289
00:14:11,919 --> 00:14:13,480
I don't need to get paid, I don't need royalties

290
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,440
or anything like that. He's like, he's like, you take

291
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,279
this and do whatever you want. With it, do something

292
00:14:17,279 --> 00:14:19,080
with it. I was like, you know, that's a great idea.

293
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,200
I should do something with it. And so I made

294
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,399
that decision that I was going to start working on music.

295
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:29,399
Then I met Eleanor and it just it just cascaded

296
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,240
from there. And but it kind of happened at the

297
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:38,360
same time, you know, I made that decision after deciding.

298
00:14:38,399 --> 00:14:41,559
So it was so the open mic decision came first,

299
00:14:42,159 --> 00:14:44,720
and then I decided to do the six months thing

300
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,279
well to start pushing it. And then I was like, well,

301
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,919
I'm going to need equipment for this to do my performances,

302
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,320
So why don't I just get the equipment for the

303
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,360
open mic and then that'll start me on my path.

304
00:14:57,799 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 5: I'll have I'll have no excuse not to move forward.

305
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,639
Speaker 7: There you go, There you go, exactly. Yeah, which is

306
00:15:03,759 --> 00:15:05,519
a great way to motivate yourself, right, I put yourself

307
00:15:05,519 --> 00:15:07,039
in a position where you got to do it.

308
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

309
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,679
Speaker 1: I mean I spent I spent a few thousand dollars

310
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,799
on the on the performance equipment.

311
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah. So once you spend that kind of money, yeah,

312
00:15:14,759 --> 00:15:15,399
you gotta do it.

313
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,159
Speaker 5: Yeah. Exactly.

314
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: It's like, look looking at a big hole in my waile,

315
00:15:19,039 --> 00:15:21,639
like well, did I just shoot a hole in my

316
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,000
pocket or am I going to do something with this?

317
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:28,480
And and uh, it's been it's been so worth it. Yeah,

318
00:15:28,519 --> 00:15:31,600
you know, I've, like I said, I've, I've I've performed

319
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,639
at least two shows a month since I've started, So

320
00:15:34,679 --> 00:15:35,080
it's been.

321
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,679
Speaker 5: Over a year now. Yeah, and just pushing and pushing.

322
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: I got the released the first album with the seven

323
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:45,200
songs last year September ish I think it was, and

324
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:50,480
then I have three three songs released singles since then. Yeah,

325
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,279
one I just released last last week or the week before.

326
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,000
It was very very recently. It just it just jumped

327
00:15:57,039 --> 00:16:01,320
on the platforms a couple of days ago. Okay, okay, yeah,

328
00:16:01,399 --> 00:16:04,159
so yeah the sixth sonata.

329
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,519
Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, we were talking off air. I can't say

330
00:16:08,679 --> 00:16:12,600
I've never been able to say anything with an X

331
00:16:12,879 --> 00:16:15,799
THH at the end sixth. I guess I can kind

332
00:16:15,799 --> 00:16:17,519
of do it, but I have to slow it down,

333
00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:19,600
like I can't say it fast. But I think a

334
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,240
lot of people like that, like if I say it fast,

335
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,720
I'm just going to say the sixth sonata. So I'm

336
00:16:23,759 --> 00:16:26,159
literally just saying six. If I slow it down, I

337
00:16:26,159 --> 00:16:28,799
can do it. The sixth sonata. But even that, that

338
00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:31,639
sounds very awkward. I sound like I'm listening. Yeah, that

339
00:16:31,679 --> 00:16:33,960
sounds very awkward. But yeah, I've always had trouble with that.

340
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,399
But no, that's that's that's great. I'm curious too when

341
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,799
you started performing live, because you write, you write these songs.

342
00:16:42,879 --> 00:16:44,679
You know, as we talked about a few minutes ago,

343
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,039
the lyrics are complex. And you know, something I've always

344
00:16:48,039 --> 00:16:51,679
said to something that rappers never get enough credit for

345
00:16:52,519 --> 00:16:57,559
is the memory skills needed for that. Because any rock song,

346
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,720
you know, unless it's something extremely worse like I don't

347
00:17:00,759 --> 00:17:03,440
know one week by Bare Naked Ladies, right right, But

348
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,240
but almost any rock song, you know, it's pretty easy

349
00:17:06,279 --> 00:17:10,759
to learn the words, right, you know. But uh, but

350
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:15,359
something like especially like what you're doing, there's some pretty

351
00:17:15,559 --> 00:17:18,640
serious memory skills involved there, right to remember all of that.

352
00:17:18,839 --> 00:17:21,279
Oh yeah, like when you started performing live, was that

353
00:17:21,319 --> 00:17:22,119
a challenge at all?

354
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,839
Speaker 1: It was definitely and it still is now. You know,

355
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:29,799
I'm every every show if you pay close attention. I

356
00:17:29,799 --> 00:17:33,519
don't want to say every show, but but very often

357
00:17:33,559 --> 00:17:36,279
you'll find that I'll pause for a couple of seconds

358
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:42,119
and that'll be me completely forgetting. Yeah, it happens more

359
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,559
often than anybody notices, right right, because when you're right,

360
00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:47,880
when you're writ in during the performance and you just

361
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:52,759
keep going, you know, nobody noticebody knows unless they really

362
00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:53,559
really know the song.

363
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 7: Yeah.

364
00:17:54,079 --> 00:17:56,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, my close friends that come to every single show,

365
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,160
they're like, they give me the look like, oh, you

366
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:05,319
messed up. Yeah, but yes, it's it's it's very, very

367
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,559
difficult to remember the lyrics. I've always had memory issues

368
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,160
ever since I was a little kid. It's really hard

369
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:16,079
for me to memorize things. So so when I was

370
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,880
a kid, I found that the easiest way for me

371
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,920
to remember something is have a jingle to it. Okay,

372
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,480
you know, so, so no matter what it was, you know,

373
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:30,519
like if if I had to remember two plus two

374
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,599
is for you know, things like that, it just it

375
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,359
made it so much easier for me to retain interesting knowledge. Yeah,

376
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:43,039
it's it's almost like like a sound pattern, and I

377
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,400
practice in order in order.

378
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 5: To to to to remember them.

379
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,279
Speaker 1: I practice, I won't say every single day, but pretty

380
00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:53,640
close to every day. I listen to my music every day. Yeah,

381
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,440
and I try to perform them even whether I'm in.

382
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 5: My car or at work.

383
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: I try to perform them every time I listen to them,

384
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,680
and so so that helps.

385
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:05,799
Speaker 5: But I have to I do.

386
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: I have to practice every every single day, every couple

387
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,160
of days. If I have a show coming up, I'll

388
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,880
practice two or three times a day, just just to

389
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,519
to create the habit. And you know what's funny is

390
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:21,519
I actually find I'll be driving in my car, I'll

391
00:19:21,559 --> 00:19:24,480
be I'll be playing the performance track so it doesn't

392
00:19:24,519 --> 00:19:26,240
have all the words on it. Yeah, I'll be singing

393
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,079
along with it, and then I'll start daydreaming and I'll

394
00:19:29,079 --> 00:19:32,759
start thinking about something else, and then I'll remember that

395
00:19:32,799 --> 00:19:36,559
I was singing and I sang every single word. Yeah,

396
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,480
Because it's it's become a habit net, right, So so

397
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:46,359
muscle memory, vocal memory, and breathing memory. It's so it's

398
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,279
so embedded in my habits now that that I can

399
00:19:50,319 --> 00:19:51,880
do it without even thinking about it sometimes.

400
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, and your memory has probably improved over time because

401
00:19:55,799 --> 00:19:57,960
of of what you're doing. I just saw it too,

402
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,759
a study little bit of a side street. But it

403
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,759
does relate to what we're talking about somewhat, is about

404
00:20:05,799 --> 00:20:09,960
how if you make creating music, whether even if you're

405
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,960
just practicing scales on a guitar or whatever you're doing

406
00:20:13,039 --> 00:20:16,640
as you get older, it actually helps to stave off

407
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,720
things like dementia yeah and such.

408
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yep that there's been studies that prove that.

409
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 7: Yeah.

410
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's amazing.

411
00:20:24,519 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 1: Another thing I do to help myself with my my

412
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:32,680
alertness and quick thinking, and it really helps for me

413
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,720
waking up fully in the morning too. I have the

414
00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:39,519
alarms on my phone. I have to solve a math

415
00:20:39,599 --> 00:20:41,799
problem to turn off the alarm.

416
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:42,559
Speaker 7: Interesting.

417
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,039
Speaker 1: So, the first couple of weeks I did it, I

418
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:47,880
would wake up super groggy, and I would get I

419
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,079
would get heated because I couldn't think straight enough to

420
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:52,920
do four plus sixteen you know.

421
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:54,759
Speaker 5: Wow, yeah, it wasn't computing.

422
00:20:54,839 --> 00:20:56,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, but after those first couple of weeks, it started

423
00:20:56,759 --> 00:20:59,880
getting easier and easier and easier. And now years into it,

424
00:21:00,519 --> 00:21:03,720
my alarm goes off. I'm instantly wide awake and I

425
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:06,079
can solve complicated math problems.

426
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:06,759
Speaker 5: Cool, I can.

427
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,599
Speaker 1: I can make the decision to get up and do

428
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,160
my thing or go back to sleep and get a

429
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:11,960
little bit more sleep.

430
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:12,559
Speaker 5: Yeah.

431
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:15,839
Speaker 1: But but there's no like groggy wake up period now,

432
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,960
so I'm either asleep or I'm awake.

433
00:21:18,079 --> 00:21:19,839
Speaker 5: Oh, that's interesting. Wow, Yeah, it is.

434
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: It is in and I recommend it to people all

435
00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:25,319
the time, if you if you can, if you can

436
00:21:25,319 --> 00:21:28,640
deal with it for that first part of it, because

437
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,400
like I said, like I was waking up and I

438
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:37,960
was getting so mad, right, But yeah, that that and

439
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:43,960
and uh and the the the trying to remember the

440
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,559
songs practicing them all the time. It's also that that

441
00:21:49,799 --> 00:21:55,119
his uh given me motivation to do everythings. Like I'm

442
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,079
I'm really I'm really bad at remembering people's names. So

443
00:21:59,279 --> 00:22:02,960
I do another vocal practice. When I meet somebody and

444
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,799
they say their name, repeat it right away, and then

445
00:22:05,839 --> 00:22:08,039
I try to repeat it one more time so that

446
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,119
I'm hearing it once and then saying it twice. Yeah,

447
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:16,200
And it's it's been helping, Yeah, but mostly with people

448
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,359
that I already know, Like Matt is an easy one

449
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,079
to remember because I know thirty thousand maths.

450
00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, ye.

451
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,839
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's uh, it is a memory. It is

452
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,000
a memory task, and I gotta constantly be on top

453
00:22:31,039 --> 00:22:33,599
of it or or or off all behind. I notice,

454
00:22:33,839 --> 00:22:35,960
like if I go three or four days without practicing

455
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,599
my songs, yeah, and I go to practice, I'm stumbling

456
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,559
over the like the first couple of words or or

457
00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:45,039
I'm getting to the complicated part of the song and

458
00:22:45,079 --> 00:22:46,640
then like getting all tongue twisted.

459
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 5: Yeah. So it's it's it's.

460
00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: Really and not only remembering the words, but being able

461
00:22:53,319 --> 00:22:57,119
to say them in in in a speedy fashion, you know,

462
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,279
because and like the breathing and everything, I have to

463
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,519
I have to remember where all my breaths are. I

464
00:23:02,559 --> 00:23:04,720
have to take them at exactly the same time, exactly

465
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:05,440
the same speed.

466
00:23:05,559 --> 00:23:07,759
Speaker 7: Oh that's interesting. Okay, so you commit that to memory

467
00:23:07,799 --> 00:23:10,920
as well, exactly where you're taking Oh interesting, Okay.

468
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 1: I do a lot of cadence change with with my

469
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,799
lyrics as well, so I have to memorize all that

470
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,279
as well.

471
00:23:18,599 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 7: How long does it take you to, like, after you've

472
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,119
written it and you're and then you have to learn it,

473
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,920
you have to to be able to perform it, Like,

474
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,759
how long does that take? I mean I must take

475
00:23:26,799 --> 00:23:27,400
some time? Right?

476
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:28,519
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yep.

477
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: So I'm I have a song completely written and I've

478
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,559
practiced it, you know, one hundred two hundred times before

479
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,200
I even perform it in front of somebody at an

480
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,559
open mic. Okay, yeah, so I'm and one thing I

481
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,279
like to do as well. Is I'll make the song,

482
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,960
I'll record it, and then I'll listen to it. Yeah,

483
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,720
and I'll read the lyrics and that that seems to

484
00:23:52,759 --> 00:23:57,599
help train me to remember them. Okay, but then once

485
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,160
I get to the point where it's memorized, if I

486
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,559
pull out those lyrics, I just it messes me up

487
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:03,920
stumbling over it.

488
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 5: Yeah.

489
00:24:04,599 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: So there's like there's like a period of time where

490
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,799
I have to stop with the note So yeah, so

491
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,960
I'll I'll I'll practice for a couple of weeks, I'll

492
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,720
write the song, practice for a couple of weeks, I'll

493
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,599
record it, and then and then, like I said, I'll

494
00:24:21,599 --> 00:24:25,079
sing along with it and then and then I just

495
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,680
have to put the notebook aside and try to remember

496
00:24:29,799 --> 00:24:32,519
the lyrics as I'm going and then, like if I

497
00:24:32,519 --> 00:24:34,960
get stuck at a point, yeah, pull it out real quick,

498
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:35,440
look at it.

499
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:37,759
Speaker 5: And then I tend to.

500
00:24:39,599 --> 00:24:46,799
Speaker 1: My my mind tends to create like patterns. So if

501
00:24:46,839 --> 00:24:50,519
you if you asked me to sing any part of

502
00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:53,240
my song right now, like like even the start of

503
00:24:53,279 --> 00:24:57,599
a verse, if I didn't start at the beginning, I'll

504
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,440
have a hard time remembering. I have to start from

505
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,920
the beginning of this and then sing through it like

506
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,440
ABC's You know.

507
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 7: If you don't start from the beginning, it's hard to

508
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,960
just pick up in the middle of the alphabet and

509
00:25:08,039 --> 00:25:08,640
got right.

510
00:25:08,599 --> 00:25:10,799
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly, yep, yep, yep. So it's like that with

511
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,920
my lyrics. Yeah, oh, what did you say? You're on

512
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:20,440
your third verse in in halfway through you talked about this,

513
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,920
this this I have to think about it, and I

514
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,240
have to go, what did I talk about that? Yeah,

515
00:25:24,279 --> 00:25:28,960
and then and then reread it and then remember what

516
00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:32,480
the what the metaphor meant to me at the time,

517
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,119
or or or what I was trying to portray with

518
00:25:36,319 --> 00:25:39,559
the with the uh the selection of words that I use.

519
00:25:39,799 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 5: Yep, yeah, yeah, so it is.

520
00:25:41,759 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 7: That makes sense. That makes sense if you're just join us,

521
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,440
we're talking with six Minds Combined. Your real name, of

522
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,559
course is rake Everheart. Where does the name six Minds

523
00:25:50,599 --> 00:25:51,559
Combined come from?

524
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: So that was that was a story, you know, so

525
00:25:55,519 --> 00:25:57,279
way back in the day when I first started making music.

526
00:25:57,319 --> 00:25:59,480
I started when I was eighteen. I listened to Eminem's

527
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,200
second album and and lost my mind. I was like this, this,

528
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,200
this thirty year old white dude from Detroit can do this.

529
00:26:06,279 --> 00:26:07,720
I was like, I'll give it a try. So I

530
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,839
tried it, and you know, and now we're here today,

531
00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:14,119
but repeat the question real quickly.

532
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 7: Well the name where? Where is the name?

533
00:26:15,799 --> 00:26:16,079
Speaker 5: Okay?

534
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 7: Okay?

535
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,839
Speaker 1: So so I started out, I was like, oh, well,

536
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,519
what kind of name can I use? And I was

537
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,200
super into ICP at the time, okay, and the whole

538
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,440
Psychopathic Records thing. So so, and I really liked the

539
00:26:28,839 --> 00:26:30,720
I'm gonna give you one of the names.

540
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 5: It was.

541
00:26:31,319 --> 00:26:34,079
Speaker 1: So the first name I picked was Psycho Dragon. I

542
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,279
really like the the aspect of the dragon, the powerful,

543
00:26:38,519 --> 00:26:41,920
you know, uh, like the mythological power behind it.

544
00:26:42,079 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 5: Yeah.

545
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: And then and now I'm a little psycho, you know.

546
00:26:44,759 --> 00:26:48,079
And I was listening to that that, you know, like

547
00:26:48,319 --> 00:26:54,519
crazy Killing Spree all sorts of awesome, great great music.

548
00:26:54,599 --> 00:26:56,640
But but it's all for fun, yeah, you know, of course.

549
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,680
And so that was a way for me to get

550
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:05,440
all my aggressions out without doing things actually aggressive. I

551
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,279
can put my thoughts and my feelings and way over

552
00:27:09,319 --> 00:27:11,200
exaggerate them and then put them into a song and

553
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:18,000
have fun with it. So I realized in while I

554
00:27:18,079 --> 00:27:20,839
was making that music that that's not all I wanted

555
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,160
to do. I wanted to make other kinds of music,

556
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,480
and I was like, the name Psycho Dragon doesn't really

557
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:31,920
work with all the stuff that I'm doing. So so

558
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,799
I've had a couple of nicknames given to me people

559
00:27:35,279 --> 00:27:37,720
from people over the years, so I pulled one of

560
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,559
those nicknames in and I was like, Oh, this can

561
00:27:39,599 --> 00:27:44,480
be this can be like the the younger, happier, funnier

562
00:27:44,559 --> 00:27:48,640
version of me. And then and then it just it

563
00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:51,759
just went from there, you know, and and eventually it

564
00:27:51,799 --> 00:27:58,440
became six different characters that I've created based on certain

565
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:04,400
aspects of my personality and and and what I want

566
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,119
to put out there. And the the really fun thing

567
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,720
with this is I'm pushing this style and the type

568
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,480
of music that I'm making. Now, this is it's not

569
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:20,000
all I make. I'm all over the board. And eventually,

570
00:28:20,799 --> 00:28:24,160
you know, those other characters are going to start popping

571
00:28:24,279 --> 00:28:29,119
up and the fans will get to see other sides

572
00:28:29,319 --> 00:28:36,640
of of the whole six Minds combined. Ah, universe really

573
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,160
will put it there. So so I don't wanna I

574
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,839
don't want to say like I'm biting off of I C.

575
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,880
P And their Six Jokers cards or anything like that,

576
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:48,480
but but that that sparked the idea it's not six

577
00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:52,359
minds combined because of the Six Jokers cards, that it's

578
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:57,440
not related. It just I just happened to, uh come

579
00:28:57,519 --> 00:28:59,920
up with the six different names and actually went with

580
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:04,279
schizo for a little while, you know, like schizophrenic schitzo.

581
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,359
I was like, that's easier than trying to tell everybody

582
00:29:06,359 --> 00:29:06,920
all my names.

583
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:07,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, and.

584
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: Uh oh, because my friend that I was working at

585
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,839
the time, Lunchbox, He's like, I'm sick of trying to

586
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,640
remember all these names, dude, I'm just going to call

587
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,119
you schizo. But at the time, there was somebody else

588
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,480
that was going by that same name.

589
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,359
Speaker 7: That's it. That's the exact thought I had when he

590
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,599
said that. It's like somebody else is already probably, isn't

591
00:29:24,599 --> 00:29:28,440
it anyway, I mean, it's too obviously exactly exactly.

592
00:29:28,559 --> 00:29:33,519
Speaker 1: So I had actually I wrote a song and I

593
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,480
was I was singing through the lyrics, and in the

594
00:29:37,559 --> 00:29:41,160
lyrics it said with these six minds combined, and it

595
00:29:41,359 --> 00:29:44,960
clicked right there. So I wrote the name before I

596
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,039
ever even decided that that was going to be my

597
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:49,880
new name. Interesting, and then and then it all just

598
00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,480
it all just fell together, you know, like the whole

599
00:29:53,559 --> 00:29:56,599
six MC thing, six Minds Combined.

600
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 5: But then I'm an MC and oh yeah yeah, so

601
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:00,559
it's so.

602
00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: It's all you know, it's I love multiple meanings, yes,

603
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:07,400
multiple layer meanings of things, and I do that a

604
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,079
lot with my lyrics too. Yeah. They they call them

605
00:30:10,119 --> 00:30:13,279
like double entendres or whatever. You take in the same

606
00:30:13,279 --> 00:30:15,839
word and you're using two different meanings, but you're putting

607
00:30:15,839 --> 00:30:18,160
it together, and it sounds it sounds good together, it

608
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:18,759
sounds smooth.

609
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 5: Yeah.

610
00:30:19,759 --> 00:30:22,359
Speaker 7: The great thing about it my name, like six Minds Combined,

611
00:30:22,359 --> 00:30:24,920
as as opposed to something like schizo, is you know,

612
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,359
the the chances are probably infinitesimally small that you're gonna

613
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,480
come across somebody else who says, hey, I've already got

614
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,039
that name, six Minds Combined.

615
00:30:31,759 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 5: You know, exactly nobody. Nobody has that name.

616
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I actually I get complimented on it all

617
00:30:37,559 --> 00:30:39,880
the time. They're like, wow, that is that's a really

618
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,559
interesting name. How'd you come up with it? Yeah, you know,

619
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,519
and and it's it's it's so great to say that,

620
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:48,400
like it just came up with itself, you know, Like

621
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,000
I didn't choose that name.

622
00:30:50,039 --> 00:30:51,559
Speaker 5: They chose me, right.

623
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: You know, So it's it's really like one of those

624
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:57,599
serendipitous things that you know it was it was if

625
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:58,519
you believe in fate or.

626
00:30:58,519 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 5: Whatever, it was meant to be.

627
00:30:59,519 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, now everything just just kind of happened the way

628
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,960
it did, you know. And uh, the same thing with

629
00:31:05,039 --> 00:31:09,039
the music, doing something with it.

630
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 5: You know.

631
00:31:09,799 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: I met Eleanor at the perfect time when I was

632
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,279
ready to do this, and and she was like, I

633
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,440
need to do this with you, you know, and it's

634
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:23,640
we've we've we've got a great partnership. She often asks me,

635
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,279
are you getting your money's worth? Because I pay I

636
00:31:26,279 --> 00:31:32,400
pay a subscription to to New Hampshire Underground for the services,

637
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:38,039
and I definitely at this moment I pay in more

638
00:31:38,799 --> 00:31:41,599
then I get financially out of it. Like I don't

639
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,359
book enough shows to to get paid enough to cover that.

640
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 5: But but that's the immediate goal.

641
00:31:47,519 --> 00:31:49,759
Speaker 7: You're building, right, your building a career.

642
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 1: And and you know, once I once I get past

643
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,359
that that thing where I'm where I'm getting paid for

644
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,480
every show as opposed to doing free shows often because

645
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:04,039
I I to do a lot of free shows, then

646
00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:06,720
that'll pay for itself. You know, I spend one hundred

647
00:32:06,759 --> 00:32:11,119
and sixty bucks a month for the the VIP membership,

648
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:17,039
and I get I get a weekly meetings. We meet

649
00:32:17,119 --> 00:32:19,599
for an hour or two hour, three hours. Sometimes we

650
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:25,160
go over our plans, our goals. We we decide, you know,

651
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:27,839
what's the next step we want to take.

652
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,839
Speaker 5: And and then.

653
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: While we're doing all that stuff, she's she's reaching out

654
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,319
and she's booking me shows. And like I said, I've

655
00:32:35,359 --> 00:32:38,519
done two shows a month, if if not more since

656
00:32:38,559 --> 00:32:42,000
I started working with her. And and I've gotten so

657
00:32:42,079 --> 00:32:45,240
much exposure. I've met so many, so many other artists

658
00:32:45,559 --> 00:32:49,839
good and and uh, it's just it's it's like a

659
00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:53,000
steady wave, dude. It keeps growing and growing and that's excellent.

660
00:32:53,279 --> 00:32:57,240
So I'm I'm leaps and bounds farther than I expected

661
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,640
to be a year into into the career.

662
00:33:00,799 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 5: Good.

663
00:33:01,319 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: And if it keeps going the way it's going, I'm

679
00:33:58,119 --> 00:34:00,759
my sister who lives in wiscons and she wanted to

680
00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:06,240
do a song with me. Yeah, she's she's my younger,

681
00:34:06,279 --> 00:34:09,440
younger sister. I was twelve years old when she was born,

682
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,000
and I was really into music throughout most of my

683
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,039
adolescents and everything. So she kind of picked that up

684
00:34:16,039 --> 00:34:19,199
from me, and she really really got into like chorus

685
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:20,800
and singing and everything like that. And she I think

686
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,880

00:35:12,639 --> 00:35:14,800
be the bearer fairly wearing about what I'm sure, which

696
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,719

00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:30,559
Speaker 3: Hey by the Way too.

741
00:37:30,679 --> 00:37:33,760
Speaker 7: Something I wanted to ask you. ID almost frolling about

742
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,119
this and then but I was singing about it the

743
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:37,480
other night when I was listening to these. Are you

744
00:37:37,559 --> 00:37:38,519
a fan of Nate Dog?

745
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 5: Yes, yep.

746
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,199
Speaker 7: Because sometimes when you're singing, when you're not rapping, but

747
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,159
you're doing more singing, remind me of him his case,

748
00:37:46,199 --> 00:37:49,280
because he had a unique way of singing. So for

749
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,119
people who don't remember Nate Dog, because I think he's

750
00:37:51,119 --> 00:37:54,000
passed away, I think a while ago. Maybe I don't know,

751
00:37:54,039 --> 00:37:57,480
but they're like like in the nineties and early two thousands,

752
00:37:57,519 --> 00:37:59,880
he would he would sing the hook on a lot

753
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:02,239
of hip hop songs, a lot of big hip hop songs.

754
00:38:02,559 --> 00:38:04,360
So even if you don't know who Nate Dog is,

755
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,400
if you're a fan of hip hop at all, trust

756
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,559
me you've heard him. He's on a lot of those tracks.

757
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,559
And uh, but your your canons when you sing reminds

758
00:38:13,599 --> 00:38:14,079
me of him.

759
00:38:14,119 --> 00:38:15,079
Speaker 5: That's cool. I appreciate that.

760
00:38:15,159 --> 00:38:17,199
Speaker 7: Yeah, Yeah, your voice isn't as deep as his because

761
00:38:17,199 --> 00:38:21,199
nobody's voice was as deep as as But yeah, I

762
00:38:21,199 --> 00:38:24,679
was thinking about that the other night. Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely.

763
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,679
So you know, the time does go quickly, and we

764
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,440
do have one more attract to plan a couple of minutes.

765
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,559
But I want to make sure too that everybody knows, well,

766
00:38:32,559 --> 00:38:34,039

Speaker 7: Friend lazy, Yeah, what can you tell us about this collaboration?

853
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 5: So I actually I made the song.

854
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,119
Speaker 1: I wrote the song and there was some open spots

855
00:42:42,119 --> 00:42:44,360
in it and I was thinking, I was like, I

856
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,039
was like, who would sound the best in these places?

857
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 5: It just it just hit me.

858
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,079
Speaker 1: I was like, I was at a show or something

859
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,679
listening to to Lacey perform, and I was like, just

860
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,559
the sound in the groove, it would just sound so

861
00:42:57,639 --> 00:43:01,079
good in the song Flow. So so I I hit

862
00:43:01,119 --> 00:43:03,519
her up and she she jumped on it. She's like, yeah,

863
00:43:03,519 --> 00:43:05,320
I'll have some I have some keys for you and

864
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,239

00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:09,599
with that and then we hooked up.

866
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 5: She she came over.

867
00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:14,840
Speaker 1: I recorded her stuff on my my home studio and

868
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:18,320
then and then brought it to mister Goodbars at Toy

869

Speaker 5: Much, Thanks so much for having me. Matt absolutely.

884
00:44:09,599 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 6: Breaking down my mood, no faith to crown, my soul,

885
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:23,079
chased around my food, in place I've found on my own.

886
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:28,760
I'm getting stones so I can breathe, so i can

887
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,119
see you around the smoke.

888
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:36,360
Speaker 3: I focus on the bees and.

889
00:44:36,599 --> 00:44:38,559
Speaker 5: Let the world flow.

890
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 1: Sometimes I feel like I'm waiting for life, kneeling faking patients,

891
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,719
while inside my mind is breaking. My light's waning, feeding breakness.

892
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 11: Mistakes were made, chances a wasted, had sticks were wasted,

893
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,559
chances can amen?

894
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 3: Oh the game was staged. I had to play.

895
00:45:08,159 --> 00:45:13,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, hope, spurn't the pain?

896
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 3: You had to a way?

897
00:45:16,119 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 7: Yeah?

898
00:45:17,039 --> 00:45:18,679
Speaker 3: Yeah?

899
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:23,199
Speaker 4: We flow through light through strive through pain. We go

900
00:45:23,559 --> 00:45:27,519
through and we can fight the rain in spite. The

901
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:29,800
rain washes all away.

902
00:45:30,119 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 1: The water streams down the street and into the drain.

903
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 3: But where does it go from there? And where do

904
00:45:37,119 --> 00:45:38,320
we go from here?

905
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: And who is it that will care if we become

906
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,159
something unclear? Who is really on the sad when the

907
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,800
turn comes, when Mora out comes to.

908
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,519
Speaker 3: The end, who'll send it with us? Er? She's flowing

909
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:53,119
they showing us there.

910
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,800
Speaker 12: Deane is growing with no light to fight back the

911
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,800
darkness and goulfing us whole as the bricks stack these

912
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:05,519
walls that we built with no seals for the knick knacks.

913
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,119
Speaker 9: Sit back, Listen to the sick track with the metal

914
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,760
kidnap the sickness out you give back. Don't let them dout.

915
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,880
You met them with that bird trap that power flowing

916
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,719
in and tack the metal bit of cake back.

917
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,039
Speaker 1: Agad that look inside and try to see the lad

918
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:34,079
with penners like a seed that Biden's up and the

919
00:46:34,199 --> 00:46:35,639
rights the tough enough to.

920
00:46:35,639 --> 00:46:36,360
Speaker 3: Take the lead.

921
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 9: I agree to believe that we can be the greatest

922
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,719
team the way this seems all tighter dreams of feats

923
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:46,159
compete with master jeep that we fall the deeper creeping

924
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:50,639
sneaks inside your mind, depleting yourself worth, increasing fortunes.

925
00:46:50,199 --> 00:46:51,119
Speaker 3: For the peerless.

926
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,880
Speaker 1: Be fearless, steer us towards the more conclusive future.

927
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,639
Speaker 5: Suits you up like mothern.

928
00:46:58,400 --> 00:46:59,280
Speaker 3: No hell's kitchen.

929
00:46:59,599 --> 00:47:02,800
Speaker 1: Dismiss sympaths, effect the violence the active side. Thats won't

930
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,559
solve the tyrants, won't halt the virus behind the eyelids.

931
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,840
Try this, put aside the difference assistance between the sides.

932
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,960
For instance, your instinct sorts always in synct it's distinct

933
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,119
thinking like an ey this link. Don't sink to depths

934
00:47:14,199 --> 00:47:16,159
that test the break, don't drink, they're cooler. But with

935
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,400
the deep distinct. But where the deep distinct, don't drink,

936
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,079
they're cool. But with the dent dist think but whether

937
00:47:22,199 --> 00:47:24,239
dent distinc you are.

938
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 3: Let's takes.

939
00:47:38,599 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 5: Coming up with nothing.

940
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: I aim to become something, telling myself I'm not enough.

941
00:47:44,199 --> 00:47:47,599
Just take what's easy coming. But nothing was easy coming.

942
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,880
I had to work to just be someone getting vibe

943
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,760
by dealing pies and dreaming out the dungeons, bleeding of

944
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,360
my thumbs when I should be pumping and elbows, draining

945
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,519
up my funds when up not but a swelled nose

946
00:48:01,559 --> 00:48:05,320
from walking into walls. There stole in so my dead grows,

947
00:48:05,519 --> 00:48:09,039
my bank rolls non existence. I almost just let go

948
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,199
my chest throws. I couldn't breathe. I needed to run,

949
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,920
I needed to flee. I needed to see my family.

950
00:48:15,199 --> 00:48:18,719
I needed to be Disseminately, immediately, I ceased to be,

951
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,840
and we became what you all see. Six minds alike,

952
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,400
but not just right, combined eternal lead. We won the

953
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,199
fight by changing the rules, the duels become a draw.

954
00:48:28,639 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 3: We own the night.

955
00:48:29,639 --> 00:48:32,519
Speaker 1: By being the light, the brightest of them all. If

956
00:48:32,519 --> 00:48:34,840
we scream aloud the straw well failed, we can be

957
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:36,000
that piece of straw.

958
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,280
Speaker 3: The camel begs us over a break.

959
00:48:38,320 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: Who are reached, and notither Call six
