The Lil Wayne Episode

Okay, guys, I can't even begin to tell you what type of day this is for me. You've been waiting for when? I've been waiting for when. You're a whole life.

“This might, you might see, my body might disintegrate.”

I don't even know what's going to happen. Are you going to turn to Alex Mac? What? You know, are you turned at the Capri Sun and you go under the door?

I never watched the missile that is in the Nickelodeon.

Alex Mac? Yeah, maybe. Yeah, it's like a famous, like kids, teen, bumper. You turn into Alex, and you turn into the Capri Sun type material, and you disintegrate, and you can go under doors

and through walls and stuff. Oh, my god. It's so cute. Hey, who? Hey, who?

Oh, oh. I'll just be. You're good, guys. Are you the original little? You're the godfather of everything I listen to.

We can move past it in time. Oh, I can't even see. I should not get that car. I'm like doing terrain for a dead end. You went from here as a wrapper to life.

And down. Do you really not sleep tonight, though? No. What the fuck? What the fuck is happening?

Yeah. I'm kicking in with child. We're in a young crew. When you know where the best suit in the house is, it's right here. That's right.

I don't even have it. Right here. Yeah. What are you wanting to think? I'm good.

Okay. We got all sorts of things. I'm so happy that we just get to sit down right away. Well, it's kicking up. Sometimes Dave makes a stand for hours.

Yeah. I like to stand a lot, actually. You stand a lot? I stand a whole lot. Do you stand when you wrap?

Yeah. Have you ever sat when you wrapped? No. I actually tried it. Not only for videos.

Are you still only sit when I wrapped? Really? Yeah. Because it's a real awkward thing. It's a skill you can't.

Yeah. It's a skill. I only have, like, going to, like, two or three people that knows how to do it. I have one. There's one artist.

See it? She only sings "Lang Down" on her back. It's crazy when she writes songs. That's not weird. I've seen that before.

Really? I have a question.

“Were you like 11 when you joined the group or something?”

When I first joined the group. When they were 11. How did they find you? At 11. They had an artist from...

That was from my hood. Yeah.

And I would always buy the him all day in the hood.

Yeah. He would always tell me that I'm a tell baby about the show. Maybe it was. So they had an autograph signing at a record store. And when I got to him, I was like, "I want to show a fucking autograph."

And he was like, "Well, bad. I think he's like, "Hold on. Baby, this is a little thing I was telling you about." And I was like, "You really told me about me." You know what I mean?

I thought you was lying. He was like, you know what I mean? He was like, "Come here. You asked me to rap. I rap for him."

He liked it and gave me a card. He had like two numbers on that page during the office number. Page number. That was in probably 580 times. And he called me back.

And then when he called me back, you know, your first thing. He was like, "Who the hell is this?" Yeah. That was like a page of the day. So he was like, "Who the hell is this?"

He was like, "Just keep pagein'. Just this little thing. He said, "Oh, okay, what's up?" And then my mom knew him. So I was like, "You know my mom?"

And my mom named Sita. So I was pretty unique. So I was like, "My mom and you like Sita?" And I was like, "You like Sita? You like Sita?"

Your mom and I was like, "Yeah." So they had a good talking in the lens. I was like, "Are good for now." Oh, I've been, though? 11.

So 11, you've just been since 11. You've been off. DJ Khaled was working at that right here. Oh, the radio was working at that right here. Yeah.

At that record store. Oh, he was working at the record store. Oh, he was working at the record store. Yeah. He worked on the counter.

That's crazy. He was the guy there. See, there that day? Yes. Later on, he would, after I got with Cash Money,

and we put out a third man BG. We put out a first album out. I was only 12 by then. My friends in school wouldn't believe me because the album covered and have no pictures on it.

It just had BG's true story. Yeah. And I was only on three songs of the album. And so they didn't believe it was me.

So I had the, we were waiting, I would always have to school.

Walk the, I have a whole group of niggas who I've been talking to all day. Who, I don't believe me. All walks straight to the, to the record store. And Khaled would be in there because he already know, I've, I've, I've do it so much.

He already knew what I'm coming there to do. So he would be like, "I already know what I'm doing." So I bring, bringing niggas all the way to the, to the, to that aisle, cash money has so many artists. They had their own aisle.

Flip it over once they see us say D Carter. You know what I mean? No pain. Yeah.

“That's the only way I used to be able to prove to these niggas.”

And mind you, because they can't listen to it

Oh my God. Oh my God. They can't even listen.

“Wait, did your parents, did your parents let you listen to your audience?”

Yeah. Let them listen to his own music. Let me try for a second. I can't do it. Yeah.

Yeah. He couldn't listen to me. No. No. And so what?

I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I didn't do it. You didn't do it.

You didn't do it. I didn't do it. Wow.

I was one of the latest of my friends to start first.

I'll tell you. So when I first, when I first got on, before when I was an artist and I just started making beats, there was this guy who had this soft core porn series called Hip Hop Honies. Yeah.

And he was like, my, he was my first mentor and he owned the source magazine, before Benzino. And basically he didn't even have Jonathan Shector. Yeah. And what he did.

I heard that. Yeah. So that was my first mentor. And he signed me. He was the first person signed me.

And then what happened was he put me on the thing. And then he sent me all these copies and my mom took him away from me. She went, let me show him to my friend because we're just like a porno. Yeah. I would invite all my friends over to watch it.

And then my mom took you.

“Can you make trouble convincing your friends that you did the music?”

Oh, my God. Are you kidding me? No one believed me. Even when it said Benny Blanco because that's on my real name. Yeah.

So nobody believed. Or did the character you created? Yeah. No one believed. My wife.

She, she stopped school when she was like 14 or 15. Because the school said, you can't be in school anymore. Because you're like two to five. Two to five. You're like, you're like, you can't be in school anymore.

Your distraction. It was the same. My school didn't tell me that. But my mom, she was just like, you know, really don't make music. So you were like in the videos and doing all the things and then you're going back.

I was like, yes. Oh, my God. People like losing their mom. We're not because new others too small. Were you bound to re-releaves to kind of not have to do school?

Yeah. It was both because the day my mom told me that I didn't have to go to school anymore. The day she told me that I still went to school. Really? Yeah.

But I went to school with a different attitude. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What the fuck?

It's all the different way. Well, go on a show. You seem to be down. Like, could you even get into class? Yes.

Because at that time, I was with my first mother of my, my kids, my daughter.

and they's my entire, entire, and play that shit. And so I was so periody. (laughs) They got chased me down all day long, oh she got to do a turn on and look at it, and it was stop chasing me.

“- 'Cause you ate your first kid when you were how old?”

- I was 14. - Okay, 14. - So, oh my God, four years. - I was trying to get him out of your fast today's 14. - Oh my God. - Were you nervous? Like, 14 with the-- - Not because of my mask.

- Yeah. - Well, I was one kid, yeah. - Oh my God. - Oh my God. - I just got murdered that year. The same year, all that I blew up. - Oh my God. - So, we was already at local,

like you said, we was our, I was a local rapper forever. So, we would go on a tour back then before that would be me going on weekend shows and coming back home for the weekend, going to school. We got the universal deal.

And I was like, we have a tour coming up. And when I went on that tour, I thought he was on the road for like six months. - Yeah, she was like six months, and so she was, when I came home, she was like,

is this is what you're about to be doing? You know, she was like, is, is should I be expected? That should like, you were going for too long. Should I come on, I'm lonely. Should I come on, husband's gone.

And so she was like, listen, let's have a sit down with me, you and tell ya. And so we had to sit down. - Are you real closer to your mom? - Yes. - Yeah, yes, my best.

- So we had to exactly-- - That's great. - What are you like, doing like school homework on the street on the streets? - Yeah. - You weren't doing like, oh my God. - That's correct.

What, I would've just been like, fuck it. (laughing) - Now I've been, I've been a thing guy.

I've been a real, I was always a real smart kid,

so she always helped me to, yeah. - Did you have a crazy car? - No, my first car was a pathfinder. Knees on a car. - I love it.

- What year? - 'Cause I just, yeah. I think it was like, hmm, I think it was like a 94 or something like that. - My first car was a Toyota Camry. My second car was a Honda Corridor.

- My second car, I love that car. - The second one is Alexis Coup. But from the guy who's so, it was his old car, the guy from the, it was little, the Nissan dealers. The way to, the way to, the way to the dealership is set up.

You know, he got his little office. He had a corner office. - Yeah. - So you got to set it to it. He got his, he parked right by his office.

You know what I mean? So his car is right outside his office. We, in there, I'm trying to trade my pathfinder. We got him literally been there for like two hours. And so he could see me just keep looking, he's like,

- So you like, I was like, yeah, I love it, but that's that.

- He hit and he hit rams on it. - Yeah. - 17, yeah. - These rams, they, we called him fat boys. He was like, you're like, you know what I mean?

I was just about to get, get rid of that bitch. He was like, I, I might work, I worked, I did it like, all you could have, I don't, you don't need to say any longer I'm doing the paperwork, take it, let me get my shit out of there.

Grab the stuff out of there. - That's crazy.

“- Did you keep buying shit from him though, over the years?”

- Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - He was a great, yeah. - He was a great guy. - Yeah, you're talking about it right now.

- What's that? - Great green. - Great green, great green, great green. - That proved to be the right boys. - What's his nickname?

- He became a uncle, great. - What's his nickname though? - What? - Oh, shit, shit, shit, shit.

- He's just saying, so he just always, he's just, oh, shit.

- So she's gonna get that car. (laughing) - KFC popcorn chickens back, get popcorn chicken, while you can't a KFC $10 a bucket. - You're really eating it like it's popcorn.

You chuckle, you're eating it like that mean. - Well, I guess I am, look at how I am. - I mean, it's fun. - How I am. - But how I am is because I simply just like eating it

and I guess I'm alert 'cause I like it so much and I'm popping up. I guess, or phones dipped into the popcorn chicken. I guess I have popcorn chicken while you can a KFC in the $10 bucket.

- I am very excited about it. - Fuck. - It's a white cloth summer, I love mango. You like pizza, I'm sure I know you like black Terry.

“- Okay, now let me just tell you what we're gonna be doing.”

This is filled with the best charms of the nine knees in 2000. - Oh, wow. - Picture a sliding on a boat. Maybe I'm on a jet ski.

I could be on like a like a wakeboard or a pontoon boat. - Check, you ever, you ever been on a jet ski? - For her, we're going to speed. - You ever gone tubing? - For her, we're going to work speed.

- You ever gone wakeboarding? - I want to do it one time. It was going so fast and whipped around. I fell in the water. My bathing suit got stuck off my body.

I had to return to shore naked. - Really? - Yeah. - I love it. - I love it.

- I love it. - I love it. - I love it. - I love it. - Also use a DSP.

- It's really good for it. - Why use it? Who uses a flash drive for a playlist? Please remember to responsibly. Hard self-service flavors.

Why class self-tour works Chicago, Illinois? - The latest one that I was, once I found out dead, it was Ferrari, Ferrari made a truck ahead to get there, so I got it. - I don't even know anything about my,

like if you ask it, never moved.

- When you go outside to your house

“and you see that Ferrari truck, do you like what you see?”

- Yeah, that's all. - Yeah, that's all. - In and out my son, Raff, now. When he might then just sense it now, he's already shot like videos.

- Oh nice. - What's that life for? - It seems. - I see your son become a rapper right in front of your very eyes. How does that?

- I mean, folks like to see yourself. - Really good? - I mean, to the table. - To the masses. - I don't judge, I'm not letting him know neither. You can't tell yourself you're good.

You but they gotta tell you good. - Hey, wait, do you have any like what's that? - Yeah, how you doing? - That's crazy. - That's crazy.

- 'Cause I think it was done shows before I took him on tour. He was done showing shows and so yeah, so I was like, you might as well just come and tell him it won't. - I was just thinking, you know, so much of my life, like in it's so funny

'cause like I'm in the industry now,

but so much of my life, like I know exactly

where I was when I heard certain songs you put out in my whole life, like so it was so important to me. - I don't really make it to me. - I know, that's the crazy thing. - I didn't even, I did a whole journey in jail.

I was just talking about it that a day and I said you've been to ask me what song it was. - How did you do it in jail? You just wrote it and then you were born after? - On a phone.

- It's you. - I won't just do it every night. - But I'll just do everything in jail. - What are you doing? - I'll just do it every night.

- I'll just do it every night. - That's the, that made everybody be quiet. I'm gonna be on his damn table. - When they left, they let you know. - They was all older.

- Yeah. - And also that was a rule. If you get on the phone, if you're, if you're a conversation, we all lock in at 10.45. But if you're a conversation that was on the phone

started before that time, you can stay out. So we would do that on purpose. So that's why everybody got a lock in. And now the, now it's empty and it's just me on the phone. And I was so not gonna actually recall

when I was a little sad on the phone. Did they all hear? - Nah, they weren't trying to hear. - The CEO, 'cause he was, you know, the y'all, you know, he loves, you know, he loves rap.

So my CEO, the CEO, he definitely wanted to hear it all day. - Yeah. - I was actually, he was, he was my, was just sounded like, he was my ear. - Oh wow.

- That's amazing. - Was jail ever scary, though, because like, because you, I feel like you had like such a target, 'cause everyone knew who you were. - I wasn't around that, I wasn't around people.

- Oh, you weren't. - I wasn't, I wasn't PC with all the, I liked to create the people. - Okay. - Did you do that on purpose?

- No, they put you there, you even gotta ask. - So they won't even, if you're too big, like-- - They're not gonna put you around. - That's because you were a famous person. - Yeah.

- So like, are Cali all of them, like, they're put in a separate thing? - I don't know because they got real time. - Yeah. - Oh, yeah, yeah.

- Oh, so if you're, yeah, 'cause you were there for like, not at a year. - Yeah, yeah.

or not even? - Not at all.

“- I have, but I have to give all that things,”

thanks and credit to those people that were around us in there. Those people just made it. They made it their job to make it easy for me. - How would you get through each day? I'd be like, I would do anything, like,

do you just think about-- - You just try to make them shorter and set it. Until you get affiliated and I mean, that's when you start, you get tired of trying to make your day shorter.

- Yeah. - And that's when you just start finally just, man, well, shall I watch it? You know what I mean? Well, we watch him really hard.

- What do you guys watch? Let's make it in a fray. - That's a good show though, that's a good show. - And they don't, they're not watching it. You think they're watching it 'cause they think

a female on their naked. They know the fucking story line. - Yeah. - They know everything. - And it's like the human spirit.

- It's a good idea for a show today.

- But they never, but no one was ever like,

hey, wait, what do you want to watch? - Like what? - Oh, no, they already know. - Yeah, they already know it, they already know it. - Oh, you can't cut the game, oh, you can't.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Do you just sports all day? - Yeah. - You watched anything else with sports?

- Yeah, ancient aliens. - Ooh, I love it.

“- Did you see that documentary about Dave loves to talk about it?”

It was on, like, it was called the Age of Disclosure. - Oh, yes. - What did you think about it? I said that. - I mean, I love everything about Age aliens.

But that episode, Age of Disclosure, that's one of the exposed and everything that the government wanted to do. - Yeah, yeah. - He watched it, and I'm not kidding for like two weeks straight.

All he would say is, can I talk to you guys about the Age of Disclosure? - Well, the fascinating thing about aliens, which it's just that, like, I feel like if an alien came down and was visible and caught on camera, like, walking up to the White House and knocking,

it would just shift humanities, like, fundamental paradigm, so dramatic. - Exactly. - So it's like this event that can change everything, and there's so many people that are like,

we've seen it, it's happened, but it's never been captured

in full way. But I feel like, how could there not be aliens in general? - Of course. What did you eat like? - Like definitely.

- There has to be. - But also we also have to understand where the alien is. - Please. - You know, no, I'm saying, not always no. So what I'm saying is, saying that to say,

we don't know where the, we don't even know if they're from another planet. - Yeah, we don't know where they're from. - We don't know where they're from. - We don't know where they're from.

- We supposedly knew what was the one from Rise World, that lived, J-Ride. - I don't know if the name is J-Ride. - Yeah. - I don't know about him, how do you get the name J-Ride?

- No one, they said, but they, I think they may have named him, and they said, he, J-Ride said, that would have been said, that we're, say he, when they would ask you know 'cause it's supposed to be there was, you know, trying to get him back to where the hell he's from.

- Yeah. - If he lived, he's gonna live there. - Yeah, we try to be trying to, - How can you guys say I'm not from another planet? It's sound from, I'm from another time.

It's like you're from another, he said, he said that your world will end in a characterism. And most some people will make it a lot of people will, and they'll have to move with them, go with, move, live within the planet.

Basically go like ants, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And that civilization, you know, that time will last so long that we'll adapt to living there. And just like we adapt to everything else, we're gonna start adapting to being an insect, and just liking an insect.

“And we devoid of light, that's why aliens eyes are so big.”

- Oh, I see. - Because they're different, they don't, whatever it came from, there's no light, and there's an atmosphere, so dense, that's why they don't grow, that's why they don't go to the tall,

because the atmosphere don't allow them to, they don't eat the same food, that's why they don't get so big, like that. - How do you know all this information? Where do you just, like YouTube videos and whatnot?

- Around the YouTube. - How do you find this stuff, you got a guy on the inside? - Mm-hmm, no. (laughing)

- You know the spaceship right now, or like, yeah, if they were like, "Hey, do you know what we're going for?" - Moon, Mars, Mars. - It's so far away, isn't it?

- Yeah, Mars, it's like years, like, - I think we'll figure it out. - Yeah, I don't think it takes a year to get it out. - I don't think it takes a year to get it out. He must have said something about the whole thing

that's taking longer than they thought, because of the amount of time. - But at that time, like, becomes a thing once you get past a certain point. - Mars not meant a long time.

- Oh, that's what I said. - What is it? (laughing) - Because the time is just, time is a real. - Yeah, I go with you, Sam, to say,

if we move fast enough though, we can move faster than time. - Yeah. - And then time is a thing. - I just thought how to do that sort of fast thing. - Well, I just time figured it out.

We just ain't feeling no matter when you told us. And you told us that you figured it out, but it was raining. And it was just looking up at us. Like, at us, at us, at us, at us, at us, at us, at us, street posts.

And he, he turned his hair real fast. And it was like, oh, and did it, and noticed that when he, he kept going, he noticed stuff starts slowing down. When he did the fast, he did it. So he figured it out.

He figured it out, like, wait, if I was moved. If I was in something, I could move fast. I probably can actually move faster than time. - If you had the option right now to be taken away by somebody

Whatever you want to know about. - The alliance? - Aliens? - Whatever we want.

“- The past, the present, the different times.”

- Okay. - You get all the information you could possibly have, but you only have one month to live. If you learn everything, you've no more curiosity because you know everything.

But in a month you died, but you still have a month to convey all the information. Tell the world all the facts. - Do you do it? Or do you choose to live like another 40 years

and have fun on Earth or whatever? - All you. So that's the alternative. You get to live without telling people? - No, no, you live without any of the facts.

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no. - You live a normal life without life. - Right, not a 40. I do that because most likely, I won't be there. I don't know, I don't have too many answers to that.

What happened after that month? - I don't know. - Yeah, it's a 60% point of view. - Yeah, I probably, I probably be packing. - Yeah, definitely. (laughing) - Because I'm exactly where you go from.

(laughing) - Yeah, one month to get your hair. - Yeah, for the next phase. - Yeah, he might be out in the week. - Yeah, you know, you don't really think you're going. - You find it hard to sleep at night.

- I don't sleep. Ever? You don't sleep? - Because I work so much. - Yeah, what time do you go to bed?

- I don't have a time. - Well, wait, do you really not sleep? - No, don't. - How many hours? - No, no, no, no. - No, no, no. - So what time tell me about this?

So are you up from, like, let's say it's like midnight? You're like, okay, I'm gonna try to lay down and go to bed. - No, no, no.

- So you're never trying to lay down and go to bed?

- You never get in the bed, ever? You never get in the bed? - You know, Lil Uzi, I wanna tell you something so crazy that Lil Uzi goes, he was at the studio with Schmier and he goes and he sits in his car and they drive him around for two hours

and that's when he sleeps and then he just comes back to the studio. - Do you have a sleep on your being, uh, driven? - No, I don't know, a dead life. - How do you suggest a wake? - How do you relax?

“Like, how do you, like, you have to have, like,”

when are you, like, you know what? I'm gonna see people. - I work privately. So, you know, like, me and now my studio is my home. - Yeah.

- And so, when you said you were-- - That's from the taxation for me. - Are you working 24/7? - Yes. - But you danced that, right?

- Yeah, because-- - You were writing at 24/7. - Right, no, he doesn't write anything. - He's recording, yeah. - We're recording.

- Yeah, you have to understand that I saw my country for his contract at 11. - Oh, yeah. - He started doing this around seven, eight.

There's not one second, there's it been the job.

- Yeah. - It's like how do you like dance the world? - It's something that actually made it, living out of it. I just told you to start this, seven, eight.

So I'm doing whatever, started that seven, eight. - Yeah. - It's still a kid in the toy store. - You're still so happy. - That kid is not going to sleep.

- Yeah. - That's the last thing that he knew was, like, what bit are you-- - Do you feel like, like, I feel-- - And I do really have a lot of fun,

but I also feel the weight of the-- And I don't mean this negatively, but I feel like I can make so much great art and most of the time I've ever done vacations, I feel guilty for not waking up every day

and applying my talent to my craft.

“- Oh, you have to do your vacations differently.”

I just came from vacation. - They bring them like a friend. - I want to tell what, my phone, I'll be hearing it. That's the, I pick my vacation that way.

I mean, my vacation is for the view, I have the consider, my significant notice, something she would love while I'm doing what I do, things like that. - That's helping me.

- Yeah, so I take vacation that way. I mean, I go to things, I go to places like, I spend a lot. - I gotta be honest, I'm nothing like, I wish I was like, you even a little bit of a rapper.

I'm like, I can't happen less, I'm totally in my comfort zone. Like, I'm like, I'm like, - You think vacation will be a comfort zone? - No, yeah, like, I need to like have my EQ right and like, I'm like such a pussy when I come to be--

- Yeah, you keep an engineer, you did just that. - No, I don't myself. - Be true to yourself. - Yeah, and I don't know, like, for me, sometimes it's hard unless I'm like really kind.

Like, I brought a microphone when we went to Hawaii on our honeymoon, and I, you know, there were some good nutritionality type things, but I can't really write lyrics unless I'm like in front of my computer.

- Yeah, true. - Like 9 a.m. - Gotcha. - You know, not even high. Like, I do all my free styles to understand, like the cadence, the melody, all that high.

And then I wake up and I can't write the lyrics in the headspace that I can't the melody. So I have to totally divide those two things completely. - Wow, that's a lot. - I like weed drinks.

- What's a weed drink?

- You never had a weed drink?

- It's scary. - What's that? - I don't really fuck with it, but yeah, they're doing it, no. - You ever get anxiety? - No.

- Never? - No. - You never know what, probably before I show, I must, I'm nervous. - You've got to be kidding.

- You've got to be kidding before. - You've got to be kidding before. - You've never been like this. - So higher, drunk or fuck, and been like, oh my God, I think my heart's gonna stop.

Like I feel like I'm dying. - And I said, that's too big. That's a bad drug, too good. Whenever that wasn't shit. Too bad, too good of a drug, right?

- Sometimes I get anxious when I can't go this. When, if I know I have to be up really early for something, and I haven't gone to sleep yet, and I'm like, shit. If I was, I don't have to think a lot. That's all.

I say, I only got two more hours.

I got a phone's your thing. - And then I don't usually feel like-- - Everybody knows that has things I think a lot. - Yeah, I think a lot, too. - I think some of it is.

Everybody knows that you just think a lot. That's a great thing. I don't know the room with that. - Yeah, it's, I think it's useful. I think it pushes me to be productive

and to be thoughtful. - Yeah, but I could fall asleep. - My own come out, I have, I get anxiety. I don't know which has uncontrolled anxiety. That's why I don't call it anxiety.

- What is it? How does it manifest itself?

“- That's what I'm saying is it's like, right?”

- It's just out of nowhere and you feel what? You feel like-- - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's anxiety. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's anxiety. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

- So you just say, I don't know, but it's like off of nothing. - Yeah, you do. I don't understand the reason why I'm so touched with it, wasn't that-- - Yeah, yeah, that's anxiety.

- Do you think I'll allow? - Yes, it is. That's what I just-- - Just be fatigued. - I have to have it so cold when I'm sleeping. I hate it.

- Yeah, what do you get?

- When you have the thermostat, too.

- When you sleep. - When you're in sleep. - When you're in sleep. - I'm a girl, yeah. - Yeah.

- Sixty. - It's called a shit. - That's what you say, sleep though. - Yes, sleep. - Yes, sleep.

- Me 265. - You think this is really cold, right? - Yeah, it's really cold. - Yeah, it's like 69, 70. - No, no.

- 65 when I sleep, but during the day, I wanted warm. Like not warm, but like not-- - You know, I come to me as a Miami. - Yeah. - You got your shit on.

- Yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, I like it so cold that if I go to the bathroom after running the bathroom. - Right, right.

- 'Cause I'm freezing. - Yeah. - I'm ruined.

“- I mean, I'm bad, and that's what it is.”

- Yeah, I want to blanket on too. - Your boy off a six cents. - Yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - You remember we had to go to the bathroom?

- Yeah, yeah, exactly. - Kelly Joll, that's what? - Yeah. - You remember we had to walk to the bathroom and he was cold and he was scared.

- Yeah. - I forgot that he was cold. I remember him being sad, I thought it was more scary. - Oh, he was scared. - Yeah, yeah.

- But maybe he was cold. - He was cold. - It was cold. - No, it was cold. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, you see the brass, right?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's my favorite movie about time. - Six cents? - You didn't see a comment in the end. - One of the twists, all.

- M9, oh my god. - I still watched that for the fucka to this day and find something new. - Yeah, yeah. - I was in the house in Italy.

There's really old house from like hundreds of years ago. And I was with Sophia. One of my assistants, she said she had an experience with an alien or a goat, some sort of thing.

And she's like, she's never happened to her before

and then she had a conrific. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. She said, and she was like white in the face and then she had to come and stay with us in the main house for the rest of the time.

Yeah, and she was just like, I can't even talk about it. - I never had an experience. - She said, I can't even talk about it. - Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em about the hotel, what's that going on?

- All right, in Thailand, you got it. - What happened? - The little girl. - For the little girl. - You remember?

- I don't know, I don't know. - The hundred hotel. - The little girl and your chef, chef was in their cooking with the dude and he heard the noise and then the chef was about,

“oh no, I do remember that, but I remember it,”

nothing happened to me, I don't have it. - I don't know too much about it. It was more of their story. - Yeah. - But we did stay in like a haunted hotel.

Was it? - I think it was Syracuse. - Syracuse, New York? - Mm-hmm. - It's like they got a slow famous hotel.

- It's like, Brandon is a haunted hotel. - It is, and they got the official stories of why - Wow. - like a little quiet guy. - You went to stay in there?

- Yeah, it was just on it. I didn't care about it. I don't think I didn't know that was it. - Or was it? - You didn't know when you were in there.

- When did you found out when you were like, before you went to bed there? - You were all in different rooms, you didn't have it. - Yeah, it's about my chef. - But my chef claims that he heard a little girl,

or he was cooking. - You asked your chef? - Yeah, he cooks in the, he cooks in like the, they're their kitchen, like the hotel. - Wherever you go, your chef just cooks in their kitchen.

- Yeah. - Wow. - Really? - Yeah. - Oh, you just, 'cause you don't want to eat the food from,

I don't, I don't eat, I don't eat for my chef. - What do you eat? - Whatever, I'll pick that day. - What do you, I don't eat healthy at all. - I bet you I eat less healthy than you.

- I don't eat healthy at all. - I eat so unhealthy, it's disgusting, I'm ashamed of myself. - What do you, what do you, yes, today? - I reference for dinner a lot. - Do you like cereal?

- Yeah. - Aren't you blown away by how many unbelievable cereals there are? Like frosted flakes. - They got a bunch.

- Cinnamon toast for you? - Yeah. - Honeycomb. - I don't even, I don't even drink, I don't do milk and let's do it, you serious.

- Really? - What do you put in? - I put milk in it, I just can't look at it. - What? - Instead of pouring it to a, you can actually see the milk.

- Oh, yeah, yeah. - Oh, yeah, yeah. - Oh, no, no, no, I need it soaked. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - You want the bottom soaked with a top dry.

- I don't want to eat it fast to it about them, even soak. - Don't even put the milk in then. - No, you need the milk. - I need the milk. (laughing)

- I like the flavor of the milk, yeah, I like the drink the milk. - I can't look at it. - Why do you think you're, like, so not under the milk? - Yeah, what do you look at it? - And it's, when you ask people, you're gonna find out

this is very, very nice, I mean, this is very nice, I don't eat a lot of things. That's what, like, white and soft.

- So like, like, put mashed potatoes, I don't know, for a minute, ranch, I can't do,

“it's not like, man, nothing, and milk is the only thing”

and white rice, that's the only thing I do.

- I do have so young, and you're just always accepted.

- And not, and that's the reason. - I know, it's true, I have so many texture issues. Like, I really, I never eat any fruits or vegetables. - And when I was young, I ate all of that shit. - When I was young, I ate tuna fish, a texture

that if I saw it today, for the first time, I'd say I had to eat it. - I would never eat. - But it was a father-in, so I eat tuna fish. - You know, he doesn't eat any fruits or vegetables at all.

Zero? I fruit a lot. - So I think I eat less than a year. I eat like pizza, chicken fingers, wings, twice a day, every day of life.

- Oh, no, no, I haven't had a fast food meal in a little bit, 25 years, so many years. - We've got leftover Taco Bell if I'm eating it. - What about after a show? - You chef cooks.

- I chef. - Yeah. - For me, I don't even know if it's an eating disorder. I just feel like I get, I don't know if it's OCD or what, but I'm like, I won't even try the fruits or vegetables.

Like, do you have any like things that are like rituals or OCD-based things where it's like,

your brain always does things one way, it has to be that way.

- Are you the same breakfast everyone? - Oh, what is it? - And there's a very interest is not the same, it's very unique. I biscuits and syrup and bacon and sausage.

- What type of sausage is up? - She makes these little patties. - I like chicken apple. I like that. - Oh, I do like that.

- Oh, you never had it? - That's the thing. - Yeah, so get you've had it before. You never had it before. It's unbelievable.

It's like sweet, but it's sausage. So it tastes like it has maple syrup on the Senate. - I don't like sausage. - I don't like sausage. I don't like it. - It tastes sweet. I don't like meat that can rip.

- You want to eat? - You want to eat? - I got it. - You don't like hot dog. - Yeah, I don't like hot dog. - I just like, you know what I mean?

- You're a girl.

“- You mean that even in the mean meat, do you like chicken?”

- Yeah, that's my favorite. - That's my favorite. - Chicken, that's my favorite. - No, I hate chicken breasts. You like chicken breasts. - I love chicken. - You know what I mean? You take the fork in a sausage or a hot dog

and there's that skin on it and it just... - Look at it, yeah, you hear the fat. - You hear the fat. - Yeah, it's like a little crack on the link. - On the link, you say. - Oh, you tell my own, on the link, on the Senate.

- No, or hot dog, you have to like, it's like, it's been like pulled. Like the top of it, it's just a link. - It's gonna be too spicy. - It's gonna be too spicy. - Well, you don't want, when you hear the...

- I don't know what I mean, I don't like that. - Wait, but he only like, I hate chicken breasts. I like chicken thigh. - Can you think of it's weird that I like chicken breasts. I'm like, what do we, everyone likes chicken breasts?

- I like chicken breasts. - No, chicken thighs better, dude. 'Cause the breast isn't in the world. - I don't want it. So we're from, I'm from the web papas, it's created. So we are like every piece of shit, yeah.

- Have you always felt, this is where we're when a friend is at,

but like the chosen one? - No. - You feel like... - Just one of all of us? - Yeah, I just felt that I was very blessed with my talent,

but more blessed to actually get to do it. - Yes. - And make a living and make a life of it. - Yeah. - I feel like you've never felt pressure for any album or anything,

and I feel like you're just making song, I feel like you probably have like 75 number one hits that you've never even shown anyone, that are just like anything in your life. I decided not to put it on the album.

- What's the process for, 'cause we're making so much music? What's the process from getting it from this big batch to like the 16 that makes a project or whatever? - Titles, what's going on in the world,

just literally just hearing it. - Yeah. - 'Cause like he said, it'll be something from like 2015. We just hadn't heard in a minute. We don't want to have a kind of about this one yet.

Put it on there. Also, you know, by now listening to the one and only standing to yourself, it kind of, it's kind of a test. - No, I feel like, look, as a rapper,

I honestly admit, I've modeled my entire the way I rap off of you and Drake. - Love you. - No question. - 'Cause I know that Drake modeled his whole thing

off of what you did. And Drake is my biggest influence as far as how I rap. But I really, I can't believe that for me, I have to listen to other rap to, I'm not saying that I ever want to copy what people are doing,

but I feel like I don't want to be a rapper. - I don't want to. - All of the options that exist as far as where things can go, sign up here. And then I do it my own way.

And I love showing different diversity, whatever. - When I was younger, my favorite thing was, 'cause I didn't listen, I try not to listen. I try to be aware of what's going on,

but I try not to listen too much 'cause I don't want it to bleed into my own way. - Yeah, so I always used to get excited if we were on a roll back in the day, and we would make songs, and then the radio started copying

what we were doing, then I was like, oh, then I was like, okay, now I gotta switch again. - Yeah, yeah, but that's not listening. It's how you, you know, it's how you keep it original. - You're the godfather of everything I listen to.

“- No, I'm saying, that's what I do it for,”

so it's my task. - How do you do it? How do you do it? - This is my task, it's mean in the moment, it's like an athlete, who can shoot the ball

we'll probably be the moment he's okay, I'm good at it. - Is there ever, is there ever times like in your career where you've been like, you've been excited for someone's album that's coming out, like 50 was dropping, like a set of hours earlier.

- Yeah, I just started doing this part with the last 10 years. - Yeah, who are your favorite rappers besides you? - My favorite rappers, Jay-Z. - He's in my top five.

- And Missy Elliott. - You listen to any current rapper, no, no. - Oh, you do? - Yeah, I have a kid, so I'll be fine out of the head, listen to it.

- Sometimes I'm like, what the fuck is this? - All the time. - You're like, it's like noise. - Not every single day. - No, yeah, no, yeah, that's it all of it.

It's core, like everywhere, it all came from you. - Yeah, and it's been a little bit more original. - Yeah, and I get the watch, I've closed off, but it's like 10 times of what was used. So now it's like, I'm making a whole thing.

- There's nothing else, yeah, it's don't, don't know, we'll get all that. - Check, you know what this is called? - David. - Do you know what else is called David?

- Poetry? - Ew, you're David. - Am I allowed to eat it now? - Yeah, you can eat it. Guys, it's the best ball on the market.

- First of all, the macros are, - Ooh, the wooformers thing. - It's got 28 grams of protein, with 150 calories and zero sugar. - Like, I know, you're not a, you don't need a lot of, yes.

- Do you think everyone understands what macros is? - I think a lot of people know what macros nutrients are, especially the people who are buying these.

“All you have to know, you don't have to know anything.”

All you have to know is these taste better? - Macros. - And the fudge browner one for a good, and also the cookie dough one for a good. - David, go, it's a failable at Walmart.

Walmart store, it's nationwide and on Walmart.com. - You can try a single bar full on between 97. Go grab one for yourself. - That's the story of how you, like, you didn't drink. How did you find that?

I don't know the details of that story. - Right, can't do from, you haven't had a wrap a lot of records. - Of course. - J-Print the owner of that, his son's,

that's like he always ran with us.

You run out of age, jazz. - Yeah, jazz. - And jazz was always, "Dread Jazz" boy, Drake Zimmerman. - Got it.

- And when you heard Drake agree, like, of course, no brainer. I see it instantly. - What happened was, when I heard him, he was all wrapped.

And then, you know, that one of those hooks came and I was like, who's on hook? - Right. - And it was like, that's him. - Drake Feesard knows, like, that's the guy.

And I mean, I was like, that's him racing in.

“And it was like, yeah, like, why you don't do more of this?”

So that's when I put it, got him together and figured it out in the serve. He was, it was, but it was like you said, it was interesting, like, come on man. And at that time, there was no one doing that shit.

- No. - That's that time. - And Nicki Minaj, like, you did-- - Oh, wow. - Why is Nicki Minaj?

How did that happen? - Nicki Minaj came through with my new york way. So when we went, we found out you know, I was a rap. - Yeah. - New york to me is the Mekka.

- The holy ground. And so I had, not like, it wasn't like a try out, type of thing, but just like, I was, I made a set of my mind, and I'm going, give me some new york rappers.

And remember, I got Jay Mills from the band. - Yeah. - And we met Nicki through some ideas, well, and shit. - She came to me.

- She came to me. - Like, how does she personally-- - Oh, she spit. - Yeah. - I was back then, that was in those days where

it wasn't, you didn't have a song already for me to hear. - Yeah. - Yeah.

- She's never recorded it.

Her only free style videos. - Wow. - That was those days where you didn't have music for me. No one had no music for me to listen.

- How'd you find it? - I found the spot. - There's my son, he's my little bro. Yeah, he from Dallas, he had a song. When he was like, I wrote a little kid, like, oh, were you?

- 10. - Yeah, he was like, so you're 10. He had this hottest song in Texas, and so he had a look about them. And that's when I had another little nigga from my city.

That was on the label, and he looked shucky. - Yeah, yeah. - So when Ted had my best friend, that was my manager. - Yeah. - He had my best friend.

- Oh, wow. - Shout out to his 99%. - It's so crazy that not only did you, like, have the biggest career. So you signed all the biggest artists too.

- And make sure they got some amazing careers too. - Yeah, you did a great job, but both of them. - They did the jazz. - Yeah, they did do the jazz. - But you had the coat, that was when the co-sign

meant everything, and you were the best co-sign. And then you'd get on the record. I remember. - Still got to get on the record. - I know, he used to, like, I remember.

Yeah, so when you were getting on all those records, you weren't listening to songs. You were just like, someone would bring it to you,

“and they'd be like, yo, you should get on this record.”

Like, when it was, like, a pop song, and you were getting on, like, when-- - I listened to their record. - Yeah, so you would just, when even though the artist, you listen to the person,

you'd be like, this is good or it's bad. I'm not getting on it or I'm getting on it. - I was in the system, and I didn't,

I was never, as song is never been bought to me.

Like, you like this and that isn't, 'cause that's not it. But this is art. - Yeah. - Yeah, and so you just gave me your brother.

- Yeah, that's so cool. - Tell me what I had to do with it.

- There was like, there was always telling me my song suck.

No, I don't, no, no, no, no, no, no.

“- I only tell him that sucks if I think,”

like, 'cause he'll ask my friend. - He's crazy, he got away, that's it. - Hold on, that's my opinion. - For Benny, if it's not, like, no, no, it's just there's different things.

- If he's coming for me, he's coming to me and asking me if a song has the potential to be a really big song. He's gonna ask my opinion on that as, like, if it's gonna be, he's like, well, this song be a big song.

- Which is not why I make music. - I don't know, I don't know. - I don't know. - I don't know. - How do you know?

- How do you know? - He's good taste. I don't know. - I don't know. - I don't know.

- He's good taste. - These days, these days is much harder. - Back then. - Back then. - It was much easier.

- Yeah. - A&R, my easing glass, something tomorrow, and how did no one hit. - Oh my God. - So good.

- It just matters, like what some, like, little kid doesn't, like, Arkansas and TikTok. And then it's like, your song is that big, trust me, I try my hardest to, at least still. You know, some real art, you know?

- Yeah, I appreciate everything you do. - Something that could, just, say you have a contrast, that's all. So I love to still see my name up there next to Lil whoever's, yeah, I would not be a little dicky

if there was not Lil Wayne, no question. - Love. - Are you the original Lil? You might be the first Lil. - No.

- No.

“- Who was the first guy who put me on was Lil Slim?”

- No, but I'm saying, like, I'm saying, oh, he first just credit Lil Slim, yeah, but I'm saying. - Are you the first big Lil? - But also everybody, I was here in New Orleans. - That's been a thing.

So in New Orleans, just regular people are, Lil, you know, Lil's something. - Yeah. - So would you say that New Orleans deserves, they created the Lil?

- I don't know if we created, but it's because it's actually, it means something. So like, a music aside in New Orleans, when you're, the junior of someone, when you're, that's off-top, they call you, if your dad name was big,

it was Dicky, if he had a son and you, he automatically becomes big Dicky and you Lil Dicky. - Yeah. - That name is still. - And let's do, let's do, let's do.

(laughing) - Let's do, let's do, let's do, let's do. - I really think he might be the first big Lil. - I think he might be the first big Lil. - He might be the first big Lil.

- We're the first big Lil, I think most of them. - We're the first big Lil. - No way in the first big Lil Wayne was not the absolute first rapper to use Lil, but he was arguably the first to turn it into a massive iconic brand as to find the modern earth hip hop. - The first big Lil! - Well rappers, well rappers like Lil Troy 1988 and Lil Kinky. - Oh, Bob!

- Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob!

- Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Oh, Bob! - Big little man.

- Yeah, Bob, I said, Bob, I said, "I don't know what to do." - Oh, yeah. - That's what I was. - That's what I was.

- That's what I was so good. - Did he actually wrap up with a glass, yeah? - Okay, little man.

- 'Cause he's never weird, little dynamic.

He's never weird, dynamic. Everybody wouldn't even do it on the song. - Oh, my God, look at this. - Oh, my God, look at this. - Yeah. - Shout out a little cumbersome.

- Shout out a little cumbersome. - Shout out a little cumbersome. - First big little. - I was just thinking about this. You ever get star-struck ever in your life,

like never, when you see someone. - Yeah, yeah. - Oh. - I went to the all white party. - Oh, yeah.

- Oh, yeah. - For the first, I don't know if I was actually was one person, it was just for the simple effect. I didn't know that they all, you know, everybody else at home.

I never said, I kind of felt like I was like, it's what they'd be. - Yes, that's what I felt. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

“- That's what you just see people that you didn't,”

like, you can't believe in it. They just off their right-day laugh and then dancing. - Yeah, that's fucking. - That's good. - That's good.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's been a movie, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - So that was part of the,

and everybody in there that was fucking me about came and tell you what I was seeing. I was seeing everybody there. - Who's your favorite basketball player of all time as a fan?

- Of all time? - Yeah. - You're like my boyfriend. - It was gonna be called behind great complete. - No question. - Did you ever meet Kobe?

- Yes. - Oh, that's cool. - I lied to you. I should do these songs from them and shit. - Yeah, really?

- Yeah.

- I never thought I'd be star-struck by anyone

'cause like, you saw LeBron James for the first time and it rocked me. - Yeah, he was dancing and the air was shifting. - Yeah, he was dancing and the air was shifting. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, he saw the dancing and the party.

And we were literally, I was stunned. I was stunned. He caught me. I was like, I was stunned and I was like dead. And I'm like, I was stunned and I just,

we didn't, I don't even think we said hi to him that time. - Yeah, it was a little brown when he was about 16, I believe. So, the baby's Burman's brother slimmed. He was always into sports and stuff like knowing kids

And so I was on tour and I had a show in Cleveland, and I asked somewhere like that and he was like Wayne, and he got this basketball club out there. You know, you want to come to your show, he's shitty, don't be everything, trust me.

So, I was like, "Cool, whatever, slim, yeah." And so to do, you know, they like though he downstairs, he downstairs and I meet him, he told us, "But he had his own, I knew he was somebody because he had his own, isn't like a sling."

But I noticed that to guys who were with, they were not there, like they was not letting people see that.

And I was like, "Oh, I'm like, he sure is always brown."

I was like, "Dad, make a dad that boy." - Yeah. - Oh, I love that boy. - That boy. - Like, that guy, he was showing his eye on it and he was like, "Oh, yeah." And so I asked the D.R.a.a.a, "Movey, he always said he'd do "as a me and job rule concert." - Yeah.

- "Movey and Jwell said 10 is a boy like that. "We kill each day down there and kick the one to the show "and everything." - You're like that. - I mean, everybody that meets you,

“remembers the time they met you. - I remember that.”

- I remember that. - I remember that for everyone. - I remember that. I remember my time meeting Brian. The only other time I got at Star Strike was Michelle Obama. I didn't even think I was, because I met Barack at the same time. And I thought he was going to get me, but she got me.

Like, I met her first and then I was like, "Oh, shit." - I never met Joe Obama. They said, "He said my name and speech before." - Yeah. - Yeah. - What he said? - He said, "But he did."

- Yeah, he used me a librarian. - What do you say? - You know, he's like, "Tedic, he's saying if you want to be "the next librarian, a little way." - Can you believe how that ties that whole conversation together? - That's great.

- That's great. - That's unbelievable, this. - It was the audience. - I didn't meet Miss, who was the vice president. - The vice president. - Oh, yeah. - I did a, I had to perform, like, probably like two years ago or no, in the, at the White House.

- Oh, wow. - But I'm so glad to hear Trump say, when he was mad at him about building a ballroom. And he was like, "Because everything we do, "we have to do it on the down the lawn." - Yeah. - So people, people who don't know nothing

here in that thing, and he did this being true. No, for real, I was glad to hear him say that, because when I got there, I had to perform. Like, "Why is it in the back?" I was like, "I can't go in."

I was like, "So what I can't, I said, "I don't want me to, but this is a backyard barbecue." - Yeah. - No, that's literally what they do everything. - Yeah. - And I had to find out about it. - So I was like, "I'm just angry."

- Okay, that's good to know. Have you ever forgotten the words, of course, right? - Yeah. - Yeah, I mean, it's common. It was requesting someone, it was gonna be crazy. They got the cheat code in that. - That's all, right there?

- Oh, I need that. - I got that from Drizy. - Well, he does that too. - I wouldn't fucking, he asked me to come out one night in New York or Miami. And I had to pop up from the middle of the stage and shit. I was like, "Kane, I saw the TV's."

And I started looking at them and shit, "That's all my vocals." But it looks like, I was like, "Buddus, you do this in this." It's like, "This is awesome." I was like, "Wait, and I have ever since I've seen 'em,

I've never not had 'em, I don't care if we're doing this small,

"is place up on this for I need it." - Have you ever done a bar mess for 'em? - Huh? - Have you ever done a bar mess for 'em? - How come I've never been asked to do a bar mess for 'em? - I've never done a bar mess for 'em. - No, I haven't.

- I don't know why. - I don't know why.

“- What do you mean, you should do, I wish I had a bar mess for 'em.”

- Yeah, I've never been to some other country because I heard the funniest stories about this. You've ever been asked to like go perform some weird country and then it's like the craziest experience. I was like, "I'm sorry, maybe I re-eyed." - Well, I would happen.

- I didn't think nobody was gonna beat up. Nobody would go, "No, me, it was down to 90% of people out there." - They know you everywhere in the world. - To do, that's so much money. This stage is the size of this whole city.

- Yeah. - And so, and also, he didn't explain to me that he's gonna have a fire fireworks. - No, I don't, I don't understand. - No. - What was that?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - So, I'm like, I'm performing looking. (laughing) - It's just like this, you need a two-rich thing. - What the heck?

- They go, "What are you guys on my TV?"

- I like had my first show in a never really,

like I never even like doing karaoke priorities with becoming a rapper. And all of a sudden, I was able to like sell out a legitimate show, but I had never done it before. - So, the night before my first show,

it was like in Upstate New York, I went to, I had some fan who was like a kid there. I went to his hometown and performed an Italian restaurant for like 25 kids. - Oh, that's sweet.

- Just to like do the, you know, just get it all out, and I did like a big show the next night, and it was so useful. - I just performed for, it wasn't a bummer for, but the kid was still becoming a man.

- A man.

“- Yeah, and that's how it was about 20 kids in there.”

- You ever go down in the crowd and rap. - No, you're too big. - Yeah, I can't do that. - And I sound too, actually, too small. - It's just, yeah.

- It's just the first big little. - To the body, sir. - You know what I mean? - You know what I mean? - You never did small rooms the way that I did,

like, you've like kind of stripped my sofa. - I did. - Closed half? - I've been a son, I was eating that man. - Yeah, but you were so big, sir.

- You don't know a big thing. - Oh, I see. - We didn't sign too. - We didn't sign too. They didn't, we didn't sign, the big deal,

- Yeah. - And I was already big because of the half boys. - Yeah. - I used to go down in the crowd and I would find the fan that I felt like care about me the most.

And I'll get right in front of them, and they would do a little like, you know,

the circle around me, and I always had a bodyguard there,

and I always didn't want him to be too involved 'cause I really wanted to do that. - Are you a crowdsurf? - No. - You never done it once?

- No. - It's not for smoke. - You crowdsurf? - Oh, yeah, but I do it, and this is what I do. Because it does give a good energy to the show,

but I do it in a way where I don't jump too far. I kind of like go just like this in lean. The first, like, four rows catch me. It gives all the momentum for the show, and so I did it, and I'm already kind of on my way back

a meeting. One time there was a festival when I kept getting drag the other way, and I was really happy. I was getting it was scared, I had to get off, and then I had to fight my way through,

“like, do any stream to the people like send me back?”

How do you get that? - I talk, I'm always so scared, I'm gonna snap my leg and break it. I have a security guy there, and I say, "Hey, this is the song I do,

"but I do it during this time. "I plan on, like, only I'd say everything I just said, "and I prep them, and then hopefully they're listening, "when I talk to them." - Yeah, and then they say, "Oh, hell no."

- Remember the time? Okay, so one time, I was my friend, Eric Andre's a comedian. He had me come and do, 'cause I've been on a show a bunch, so he had me do this live show with him, and we're doing the live show, and he said,

"Hey, man, no one else wants to do the crazy thing." Well, you do it, and I said, "Yeah, what is it?" He goes, "I'll tell you when you're on stage." - Did I get it? - No, no, no, no. And I said, "Okay, so I get on stage."

And he's like, "Oh, yeah, this is crazy." - He has me, first he has me chug a beer, so I'm like, "Okay, so I chug a beer, and I don't even drink beer." So I chug a beer. Then he says, "All right, chug a red bull,

and I've never even had a red bull."

And so I chug right back to back, okay? Then he says, "We got the hottest hot sauce in the world, "and I want you to take a shot of it."

“And like, before I could even take a shot of it,”

like, I like put it to my lips, and I'm like, "Oh, fuck it, it's so hot, so I drop it." And I guess when I dropped it, some of the speckles went on my face, and I didn't realize it, and I'm doing the whole thing, and it's like,

the whole, the whole audience, the audience, we're doing all this shit, and then I realize I'm like, "Oh shit, I'm like something's in my face, it's burning." And then I go, and I'm like, "You're putting it in your eyes." And it got in my eye, and then,

and it's the hottest hot sauce in the world, and nobody knew, because they think I'm playing the part. So I'm like, "Eir, no, and it's like the crowd's, "you know, thousands of people." And so I'm, "I'm water, so they give me water,

"it's just making it worse." And so I stay on the thing, and at this point, I'm like, I'm like spitting up, and I'm like, "I feel like I'm about to go unconscious." Like, and then at that point, Eric grabs me,

and we both crowd surf, and there's like, "Viddy's on me, and he's like this, I'm like, "I can't even see, I'm like blind." And then they took me up, they took me to the hospital, right after this shit, and they did,

they do give me, they went to the hospital. Yeah, they do, there is a thing that gives you, the instantly, I don't know, it's the special thing they give you. It's like, you couldn't have it, it's white. It's white, it's white, it's white, it's white.

I used to dread going to bed every night because I had to brush my teeth, and brushing my teeth would take 25 minutes with my rituals. Yeah, took a lot of time.

You like a football game more than a basketball game? Dave, it's been on about the world. If it's a finals. Yeah, play off, it's on the world. Yeah, you can't beat that.

You can't beat that. But you know, I'm a, I'm a, you're great. I'm a, it's still hanging out. You know, I'm a, I'm a pack of fans. So it's nothing like being eight, 13,

minus 13 degree weather, and I'll let you know. Let's hold leather. Do you ever, whoop? No. Wait, can you see?

Come on, Ollie. Yeah. I don't know how to do anything. Are you going to escape? When you're coming, I don't know.

Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it? I can't do it. Just try and even stand in the chair.

I wouldn't be wearing slippers. Yeah, please be careful. Try and try it out. Did you ever use those, uh, uh, schools? The scooters that were electronic when they came out.

They're like, oh, not no handles. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I used to use that. You know, you go like this. No, no, no, no.

God, no. I, I, that was one of my favorite parts. Yeah, I was enough for me. Yeah, I did it.

- Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward.

- Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. - Yeah, I was going to fall forward. and done it in so long. - Oh my God!

- I can't do it. - I can't do it. - I can't do it. - I can't do it. - I could do it. - I could do it.

- I could do it. - I could do it. - I can't do it. - I can't do it. - You said you can't.

- I'm in skin for years, but you talked to pros and they'd be like, they learned in the eight-year. - You know how you're obsessed with rap,

and you always want to be like the best rapper

and get better and better.

“Do you feel any of that as it pertains to skateboarding?”

- Yes. - You ever done 'em with Tony Hawk? - Yes. - That's crazy. - Let me ask you this as a rapper,

one of my last questions for you. I just want to know if you go through this. I listen to packs, I get beats that I love. - Okay. - I would say, and I'm really selective.

Like I pick the best 10 that whatever. Half the time, at least, I have trouble cutting through the right way. I know you can EQ the beat, getting my voice to sit, like half the time the beats that I love. - Yeah.

- Or my voice can't cut through. I don't have, like you have this grit to the back end of your voice that allows you to listen to my voice. It's kind of weakens as the day goes. - I give it.

- And as a rapper, and I just wonder, other rappers so burdened by cutting through or not. - No. - Yeah, if you asked him to be on a song, like, and you sent him a beat that he didn't think he could do,

he wouldn't be able to be on the song. - It's true, even though you're his favorite rapper. - Yeah, I would try as hard as I could out approach it every single way, but like when I push him to sit up. - I've done a, I've sent the song to someone before and they,

they were like, "Man, I try, I try to go at that, but I can get it." - Yeah. - But you get everything, don't you think? - Yeah, I do everything.

- You pride yourself on like not being stumped by anything. - And that thing, that's enough. So when you're asking me about the beats, I approach beats a different way, when I get a batch of a pack,

I'm doing everything going. - Yeah, I can. - And this beats crazy. - It's only because I love to challenge myself. So even if it's one that I don't think

that I really like too much, I better do something on it as I may love it. - That's amazing. - Why don't you do that? - So when I, when I, when I, when I obviously

when Juice War was alive, when I, when I worked with them, like he would do a thing where you'd go to play a beat and you play one second of it and you'd be like, "Okay, put that in." He doesn't wanna hear the thing

because he wants to hear it live for the first time and ride on it at the same time. It was crazy. - It's interesting, it's very, very, very, very, very.

- You're freestyling, you're never riding anything down,

but how, like, what, are you having to do like half a line two lines?

“How far can you go before you have to stop and punch back in?”

- I'm a rapper. And so what I mean by that is I'm too used to having it. I'm too used to know music on and just eating your fucking head off right there. So I still make my shit that way, meaning I just have to be playing.

I'm gonna make the overs and set a stop and while I got eaten right now. - What are you thinking before? - That's what I'm thinking because-- - I'll see, you're thinking for a little bit

and then you go ahead. - Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna make the overs and my head. - How do you remember without riding it down? Just a weird memory? - I mean, it's a truth, so yeah, it's not.

- How long does it take you to ride any of that? - Oh, shit man. I haven't been on, it take, I haven't been on songs for years just because I think a lot. - You still remember, you still remember it years later, the verse?

- I've been a change though, down, so I don't go. - I was just saying, I don't just, yeah, I don't, especially if it's a feature. That's the ones that I have to just, 'cause you know, I ain't got time to keep redoing,

so I got to stick that bitch to first time.

- Sometimes it's nice to not be able to tweak. - Yeah, it's kind of half to go away.

“- Exactly, that's why I'm so, and I do so many creatures”

that I have, I'm up against that a lot. - You ever get a song from someone and you're just like, fuck, like where the verse is so good and you're like, I gotta do, I gotta be crazy on this. - That's not like a song from me.

- Yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (laughing) I'm lying, I've gotten a song from, of course, Drake. - Yeah.

- Of course, like, all every time. If it's not a singing song, if he rapping on it, of course, that's how you like fuck. - Yeah, I don't know if I've ever heard a song where you haven't been the best verse on it.

- Well, yeah, never. - That'd be the, that'd be the, you know, that's the dream. But that's coming from coming, because I was in the group. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - That's the dream, that's the point.

- Even back in the day when you had my group. But even once the beginning, even when, but there was a time to me as somebody who's listened to you since I was a kid, there was a time where you were like, it was like, I loved your voice, I loved it,

and you were like a good rapper, and then all of a sudden, there was like, it was like a year, and then you were the best rapper. Like there was like a time where you went from where, you went from here, you went from here as a rapper

There was a, no one's ever said that out loud,

“and front of me, and I totally agree were like,”

there was a period where I thought of this type of little way, and then there's other type of, and maybe you didn't feel it that way, but for me. - I know what it was. - What was it?

- It was done, so it was the mixed tape error. It was when mixed tapes really mixed tapes, and so I would be before the world knew, I was doing these mixed tapes called Squat, mixed tapes, and it was killing the war, and it's killing the South,

and I was doing whole tours off of them, and that became a thing. I mean, those things became a thing,

so then I finally put out 10,000 bars,

“and once I put out 10,000 bars, I started being like,”

you started, you started realize that you were like, started getting that title, yeah. - I used to collect all of them. Didn't you invent the word "bling-bling"? - I did.

(laughing) - I didn't invent it, but I said, it was so I'm gonna put it in the dictionary. - Yeah, yeah. - Wow.

- Oh my God, I was dating a girl one time, and Lali Pop came out, and she goes, and she goes, man, she's like, little weights so hot, I wanna fuck it, and I got so jealous.

“I guess that was like, 2000, I think that was.”

- I just remember parking that camera, and like hearing a milk,

I truly remember like, and I just never heard like a beat

like that, bang with that, right? - Yeah, bang with that, yeah, and it was so open, and like, hard, and it was just felt totally different. - Yeah. - For me, there's never been the combination

of like lyricism and swag at one time under the same way. - Yeah, it did. - It did the same. - Let's have a look about the hits of the title. - I know.

- I know. - But those two things, like sometimes, if a rapper is really on a lyrical level, you don't have the swag, that like satisfies my skin.

- Yeah, yeah. - You're intersection of swag and lyricism is truly a treat. - Appreciate that. - Appreciate that.

- I'm gonna be honest with you. - Your team standing in the hallway that says, - Yeah, I love you. - I love you. - I love you.

- That was amazing. - This is, I can't believe that you're here. - That's all love, I know. - Thank you. - Thank you.
