Speaker 4: like back to school shop and all that was done
Speaker 4: at the swap meet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, vibe shirts for twenty bucks.
Speaker 1: Before you know, getting ready to go back to school.
Speaker 1: You know, during the summers, like we would go there
Speaker 1: to get all of our everything out feel its brand
Speaker 1: new shoes were purchased there, and it was a hustle.
Speaker 1: That was the beautiful thing. It was people that are
Speaker 1: making a hustle, they're making a living, you know, and
Speaker 1: it's like you would see even people I would be
Speaker 1: out there sometimes selling CDs back in the day. I've
Speaker 1: been doing this. I've been doing this since the days
Speaker 1: of CDs and pressing CDs and being out there and
Speaker 1: doing the footwork of hey, you know, this is my record,
Speaker 1: you know, and you get a lot of turndowns, you know.
Speaker 1: And and right now we're in the era of the
Speaker 1: Internet where a lot of things are given to you.
Speaker 1: You don't even have to walk up to somebody and
Speaker 1: introduce yourself. You just put the music out there and
Speaker 1: it finds the people. It's a different era. It's a
Speaker 1: different era. And to be able to adapt and see
Speaker 1: the evolution of how music has come, it's it's crazy
Speaker 1: as a longevity thing, you know.
Speaker 2: And some of the CDs were you did you have
Speaker 2: a stand or was it in the parking?
Speaker 1: No, it was just you know, my act she worked
Speaker 1: at a junior college, so I would go there to
Speaker 1: shrink wrap my CDs. I would purchase my CDs at
Speaker 1: you know, like a supply store, put it together, burn
Speaker 1: the CD and then I would go shrink wrap it
Speaker 1: at my my AST's job, and then I would hit
Speaker 1: the streets with the Duffel bag and you know, hey, hey,
Speaker 1: c you know. And it was crazy because back in
Speaker 1: the day you see people with like the headphones and
Speaker 1: the CD players, you know, like go to Venice. That
Speaker 1: was crazy. It was a thing. Yeah, yeah, so you
Speaker 1: know I seen I seen it all. You know, I've
Speaker 1: seen it all. I've seen it all.
Speaker 4: I mean, yo, that's like, that's how nip got started
Speaker 4: pushing the CD in.
Speaker 1: The street, right, A lot of the greatest artists had
Speaker 1: come from out the truck.
Speaker 2: So Hope did that master p did that fifty did that.
Speaker 4: CDs dog pushing them, you know what I mean, trying
Speaker 4: to get anyone to buy one copy.
Speaker 1: Right right, And it's a lot of it's a lot
Speaker 1: of how would you say, it's intimidating, you know, it's
Speaker 1: intimidating and that feeling, Yeah, that feeling like you don't
Speaker 1: really get that with with how music is put out today,
Speaker 1: especially with the streaming and all that, it's it's a
Speaker 1: different game. Music's not sold really no more. It's all streamed, so.
Speaker 2: Noa for sure.
Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, hard tickets, hard copies, Like it's just
Speaker 4: it's tough, man. I'm sure it's like that with books
Speaker 4: as well. Right, everybody's you know, getting digital books. I
Speaker 4: fucking listened to book on tape, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'll get a book.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll stream a book all day. Run up the
Speaker 4: numbers man, Yo. Soul Food project was in twenty fifteen.
Speaker 1: Yes, that that was. That was like one of the
Speaker 1: first projects that kind of like broke like the local
Speaker 1: local scene for me, you know. It made a name
Speaker 1: for myself. I had a song on there called Oe
Speaker 1: and that was like one of the first songs that
Speaker 1: kind of like shook my area.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: It was released at a time where like YouTube was
Speaker 1: just on the rise. I put that video out on
Speaker 1: YouTube and then me, my whole thing was like consistency.
Speaker 1: So after that project, I put on another project, another project,
Speaker 1: but I kept shooting videos. It was most importantly very
Speaker 1: important to be in people's faces, you know. So I
Speaker 1: was like on a routine where I would release like
Speaker 1: two to three videos a month, and that was like
Speaker 1: my whole get up, the whole consistency thing. You've seen
Speaker 1: some great artists come up out of that, releasing constantly,
Speaker 1: like you know, initially it was like Russ and then
Speaker 1: now we have like, you know, who's a good artist,
Speaker 1: one of the homie g pre coos doing that, and
Speaker 1: it's all like a streaming, you know, like consistently putting
Speaker 1: out music back.
Speaker 2: In the day. I remember on YouTube it was like
Speaker 2: big Sean mac Miller. They were just dropping.
Speaker 1: Video yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: It was like who are these dudes? Right? And then
Speaker 2: now look at it, right, I mean it took off right.
Speaker 4: But in twenty fifteen, were you in the mindset were like,
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna drop this album, maybe one more, make
Speaker 4: a million dollars in I'm.
Speaker 1: Out at that time, and I just really wanted to
Speaker 1: make a name for myself at the time. You know,
Speaker 1: I didn't really know what I was gonna what to expect,
Speaker 1: or I didn't know that it would take that long
Speaker 1: to get to where I'm at now. I don't think
Speaker 1: anybody knows that, and luckily I didn't because I didn't.
Speaker 1: Went through a lot to just be able to sit
Speaker 1: right here with you. You know, it's it's a good feeling.
Speaker 1: But I learned a lot, though, from then till now
Speaker 1: at a lot about the industry, about how important it
Speaker 1: is to have the relationships with people and to keep
Speaker 1: those relationships, you know, and recognize the people that are
Speaker 1: initially in your corner, because they'll be there, you know,
Speaker 1: when you really need them. For sure.
Speaker 2: What was the toughest show you've had coming up.
Speaker 1: The toughest show. I still have tough shows. It just depends.
Speaker 1: You know. When I first started off, I think I
Speaker 1: was doing like small little hole in the wall bars,
Speaker 1: you know, where it was just the family showing up.
Speaker 1: And now it's like I'm able to do these these
Speaker 1: big like arenas and you know, concert venues. But I
Speaker 1: still have times where I'll do like private events and
Speaker 1: it's just a couple of people there. You know. It's
Speaker 1: really what you make of it. I like to have
Speaker 1: fun wherever I'm at, whatever I'm doing, we're gonna have fun.
Speaker 1: For sure.
Speaker 3: What year was that, I think it was in like
Speaker 3: twenty nineteen when you had like a DJ like one
Speaker 3: of your shows in like a like behind a barber shop.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like a pop up.
Speaker 1: It was like a pop up show that we had.
Speaker 1: I had to come out for it, and yeah, it
Speaker 1: was like a backyard boogie, you know.
Speaker 2: It felt very homey, bro.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you're competing with like what's outside, and you know,
Speaker 4: the the buzzing of the machines, like yo, it's a lot, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, yeah, man, it's no there's No, there's
Speaker 1: no like things things like you can't let like certain
Speaker 1: things get in your way of what you know is
Speaker 1: to come, you know, like small things that like kind
Speaker 1: of like come up out of nowhere, or even like
Speaker 1: for instance, like smaller shows, like you can't really be like,
Speaker 1: oh man, like this is not what I expected. It's
Speaker 1: like what what's gonna come to you is gonna come?
Speaker 1: You just gotta like make the best out of whatever
Speaker 1: is like presently happening, you know, because at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, you still got ship to do m
Speaker 1: and you got to keep on going right. And then also,
Speaker 1: you know, some people are there that have traveled far
Speaker 1: to see you, so it's like you never know what
Speaker 1: they went through to get there to meet you or
Speaker 1: to have a conversation with you. So you really can't
Speaker 1: take nothing for granted. You know, no matter what the
Speaker 1: turnout is, you just gotta just roll with it and
Speaker 1: make the best out of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, it was Black and Brown with Jail Felony
Speaker 4: and Lil Robber. Was that a song where you're like
Speaker 4: that's it, Like yeah, like almost like I made a moment.
Speaker 1: You know, Jail Felony and Little rob they've never done
Speaker 1: a song together. They're both from San Diego County, and
Speaker 1: I would say I would say just off of like
Speaker 1: I would have said that they're like the two most
Speaker 1: established artists, you know that to come out of San Diego.
Speaker 1: But they're very they've they've done, they left the legacy
Speaker 1: for themselves, you know. So to put put them too
Speaker 1: on the same record and have the meaning and concept
Speaker 1: behind it to be the unity of black and brown,
Speaker 1: it meant it meant the world to me for them
Speaker 1: both to get on the record. They're definitely big influences
Speaker 1: and almost heroes in the community. So I want to
Speaker 1: shoot that record with both of them in it. I
Speaker 1: think the only issues would be like making sure that
Speaker 1: the people come are on the same same vibe, you know,
Speaker 1: the the unity is there, you know, but for the
Speaker 1: most part, yeah, right right, But for the most part though,
Speaker 1: you know, the song, yeah, the song is respectful, you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's just it's a unity song. So for me,
Speaker 1: when I made the record, I thought of it as
Speaker 1: like a as like an anthem, you know, for for
Speaker 1: the for the community of Oceanside all the way down
Speaker 1: to San Diego, you know, all the way up here,
Speaker 1: you know, it's really it's really uh, it was really
Speaker 1: a big thing to put them, have them both agreeth of.
Speaker 4: Them had to be on the national right. I mean,
Speaker 4: jale Felly was signed to death Jam at one.
Speaker 1: Point he had the record with DMX. I could give
Speaker 1: it to.
Speaker 2: You it bro, remember that Garcie remember that?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that. You know, he's on deaf Jam and
Speaker 4: Lil Rob was was was doing this thing as well. Again,
Speaker 4: both records hit the charts. Both records were on MTV
Speaker 4: at the time when MTV meant something to videos, right,
Speaker 4: videos meant something to the world like that, and when
Speaker 4: like you know, there's like video countdowns and all that shit.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: But yeah, both of them, you know, established their mark.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and you know I still talk to them
Speaker 1: all the time, you know, a little. Bob and Jail
Speaker 1: good friends of mine, you know, set aside for the music,
Speaker 1: very solid individuals. When I met Jail and when I
Speaker 1: met Rob were under different circumstances, but they're like there
Speaker 1: are people that that will be there if I hit
Speaker 1: them up, you know, so I can really appreciate that
Speaker 1: with their busy schedules and the way that I met
Speaker 1: Jail was pretty crazy, Like I was on an airplane.
Speaker 1: I was catching their plane one time, and I seen
Speaker 1: some dude at the airport was like a mask on,
Speaker 1: but he had all the same tattoos as Jail, you know.
Speaker 1: So finally I went up and I walked up to
Speaker 1: the guy and I'm like, yo, what's up man, you know,
Speaker 1: and he takes his masks out. I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is Jail feeling. And I didn't want to, you know,
Speaker 1: tell him. I wanted to do a song with him
Speaker 1: right then and there, but I just told him who
Speaker 1: I was, and then, you know, down the line, we
Speaker 1: ended up working together. It was the same with like Corrupt.
Speaker 1: When I worked with Corrupt, I had met him backstage
Speaker 1: several times. But I don't like to force, you know,
Speaker 1: relationships or things like that. You know they'll come to you,
Speaker 1: but it's all about like that initial first impression on them.
Speaker 1: You know, let them know that you know you're you're
Speaker 1: a heartfelt person, that that is really about the craft,
Speaker 1: and you know the work will speak for yourself. You know,
Speaker 1: a lot of the artists that I've been able to
Speaker 1: get on the song on songs, even like dub C,
Speaker 1: they've seen in the work before before I even asked
Speaker 1: him to be on a record, you know, so the
Speaker 1: work really speaks for itself. You know, you can't really
Speaker 1: rush relationships, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't force it. You know, it's got to
Speaker 4: be organic, gotta be a vibe, right, but it's got
Speaker 4: to be crazy. You gotta be going crazy inside.
Speaker 2: When you work.
Speaker 1: It's crazy how you you like run into artists or
Speaker 1: like you don't know who's seen your music, you know.
Speaker 2: I think one of the.
Speaker 1: Craziest started, one of the craziest features I had that
Speaker 1: came out of the blue was the song that I
Speaker 1: did with Pelo. I was shooting I was shooting a
Speaker 1: video in Hollywood, and I went to the liquor store
Speaker 1: to just grab like some wraps and Pilo. I seen
Speaker 1: some dude walk in and it was Pelo, and we
Speaker 1: just had a conversation. We exchange change Instagrams, and then
Speaker 1: we ended up working on music. You know. I came
Speaker 1: to Hollywood to work with him, and it's just crazy
Speaker 1: how things work, you know, It's just it's natural. It's
Speaker 1: supernatural for sure.
Speaker 2: Up Jack.
Speaker 4: So you you said, like you know that you put
Speaker 4: a lot of your own stuff together because you are
Speaker 4: in the and then what's the best thing would you
Speaker 4: say about being independent?
Speaker 1: The freedom? The freedom and also like you can do
Speaker 1: what you want, you know you can. You can more
Speaker 1: so do things that is in your best interests interest
Speaker 1: because like you could. It's it's a little risky when
Speaker 1: you have somebody like talking for you in my opinion,
Speaker 1: because I've worked with companies before and sometimes like they
Speaker 1: don't see what you see. And right now I'm in
Speaker 1: a position where I have like ultimate freedom in everything,
Speaker 1: Like everything is like I get to make the decision.
Speaker 1: So it feels really good and more so, it feels
Speaker 1: very empowering for me to have.
Speaker 2: Control, you know, your own music.
Speaker 1: It feels good. It right, it feels good, you know.
Speaker 1: And right now I'm in a fully independent so like
Speaker 1: I don't really have to worry about like, uh, it
Speaker 1: is the budget really going to the right thing, because
Speaker 1: I'm the one that is bending the budget, so I
Speaker 1: know what's going where.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's it's a great feeling.
Speaker 4: But you know, there's there's a lot of work that
Speaker 4: people don't see that you have on your own.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to play all positions, all positions.
Speaker 4: You got to be your own street team, your own company,
Speaker 4: your own promoter, your own booker, everything, right, I mean
Speaker 4: you are.
Speaker 1: Your team, content creator, you know, merchandise sales and and
Speaker 1: like you said, the marketing is like you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely it's a lot. Once you have to
Speaker 1: shoot the video and edit the video, put the video out,
Speaker 1: and then figure out how you're going to market it.
Speaker 1: Break the video down into like small short content, because
Speaker 1: that's what it is today. You know, it's all short content.
Speaker 1: People just want to see ten seconds of something that
Speaker 1: sparks their interest, you know, on on online. So it's
Speaker 1: not impossible. With what the Internet has, has the accessibility
Speaker 1: of the Internet, you know, anything's possible. So I see
Speaker 1: a lot of people going to the independent route now
Speaker 1: you know it's possible. You know, you don't really have
Speaker 1: to have to say so of like big big labels anymore.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that. That's a positive. I think with the
Speaker 4: Internet right, helped cut off the middle man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 2: Yo, what happened with Quick? With DJ Quick?
Speaker 1: You know, Quick is a I'll put it this way,
Speaker 1: Quick as a genius genius. D He's a genius and
Speaker 1: sometimes when you meet people that are at his caliber,
Speaker 1: you don't know what headspace they're in. So like when
Speaker 1: I make Quick a big fan of him, you know,
Speaker 1: my expectations were really high, and I just it didn't
Speaker 1: really meet my expectations, you know, the conversations that we
Speaker 1: had and the way that we met, And you can't
Speaker 1: really hold people accountable for that because you never know,
Speaker 1: you know, you never know what they're going through, right right, right,
Speaker 1: So for me, it was just like down. It was
Speaker 1: a letdown for me. But at the same time, I
Speaker 1: don't know the other side of the story, but he
Speaker 1: he is definitely somebody that has has put me really
Speaker 1: like in this position because one of the first rap
Speaker 1: songs I had heard was Tonight by DJ Quick and
Speaker 1: that really inspired me to, uh really go go that
Speaker 1: route of the whole West Coast funk, you know, and
Speaker 1: I got nothing but love for DJ Quick.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: I'm still a really big fan of DJ Quick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we've all met a celebrity or two
Speaker 2: that we thought.
Speaker 1: Right right, right right. It's just the fact of like
Speaker 1: being somebody that's so in love with that sound and
Speaker 1: being a student of that sound. Your your expectations are
Speaker 1: so high, you know, but sometimes you gotta dumb that down.
Speaker 1: A little bit. You know, you can't be too excited.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're gonna let yourself down sometimes. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: it's going to be you think it's gonna be one way,
Speaker 4: and it does and it's not. And then and sometimes
Speaker 4: you think you're you're speaking to the person you're listening to, right,
Speaker 4: Like as far as music or someone you've watched on
Speaker 4: on screen, and it you know, at the end of
Speaker 4: the day, there you know, they have their own behaviors
Speaker 4: in their own.
Speaker 1: Ways, right And music is so power. I feel like that,
Speaker 1: you know, you can fall in love with somebody from
Speaker 1: their music and then be like, damn, I feel like
Speaker 1: I know this person, but you guys have never met before.
Speaker 3: You know, yeah it you know, I want to bring
Speaker 3: it back to home because that's obviously just one of
Speaker 3: my favorite records.
Speaker 2: Bro.
Speaker 3: You got everybody from California on that track. But I
Speaker 3: started to really feel it hit home when you went
Speaker 3: to the Bay Area. You did a whole bunch of
Speaker 3: visuals would keep the Sneak, and I was like, man,
Speaker 3: I feel so fucking proud of you, bro, Like, so
Speaker 3: what was it like for you shooting all that content
Speaker 3: in the Bay Area, working with Keik working with the
Speaker 3: turf dancers and everything.
Speaker 1: Uh. You know what's crazy about that is that that
Speaker 1: song was so I feel like it would take a
Speaker 1: minute for me to explain like how that song came about.
Speaker 1: But initially that song was just me by myself on
Speaker 1: Lisa Lisa Flip the Home record. Uh, it was just
Speaker 1: me by myself on the record. And I did it.
Speaker 1: I was shooting all in Cali and my idea was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I want to make it about California home. So I
Speaker 1: shot an oak side shot in l A. And then
Speaker 1: I went to the baby shoot. But when I was
