 That particular person, y'all seen on Tiny Desk, I've already studied that man. I call him on the phone, FaceTime, everybody know him. You know what I mean? So, y'all seen something that we see, face performed like that, he'll do that on his birthday party. The world starts to stress you out. What you do? Put a candy stick off in your mouth or grab a proof, sold in stores. On Boss Talk 101, 101. Here we gonna talk. Cause, you know, going back to Tiny Desk when Scarface did that, I remember how everybody was like in such, all of like, man, he went so hard. When you first heard it, how did you feel about it? Well, you know, that wasn't as much as an R to me as it was. That's Face. That person right there, we see here about them at their manual rhythms and the clip. That's the way we get it done. We see that. He greets his father with his hands out. Were you able to taste it? Glad to be the man's child. You know what I'm saying? Like we get to see that particular person like, me and Bum, we got a special coming out today actually out of the Grammys on Channel 11, back home catching you. What is that? CBS today, after the Grammys, it was a thing that we've done three generations of, well, really D, Bum, B and me. And we were just explaining how like for me, being so away from the East Coast and not being connected to the West, we want to, these were my heroes. I think we cherish, love and respect our music and our culture, probably more than any other city. Scarface, Bun B. So that particular person, y'all seen on Tiny Desk, I've already studied that man. I call him on the phone, FaceTime, but I know him, you know what I'm telling you. So they, y'all seen something that we see, face performed like that. He'll do that on his birthday party. The world starts to stress you out. What you do? Put a Kansas stick off in your mouth or grab a proof, sold in stores. You know how to ban and be loyal. So it was great. And I was more enjoyed about to see the people who hadn't been able to just embrace him like that in so long. And for him to be getting, I love when we get our flowers 20 and 30 years back. It's very important. I think they needed to see that because you just need to know. You know what I'm saying? You know me from my side of it. You need to know and understand and respect what's going down with what Scarface can do. Because a lot of times I think it was way underrated. I look at them top, whatever list that would come out on the East and West, wherever. And I'd be really aggravated and upset because certain people ain't on their own because it ain't merited to my perfection. But that's all, you know, that's something that we gotta create our own thing down here. And I think that's where I'm at with it. Pushing information up. You know what I mean? Because if we don't do that, then we're not doing our self justice. You know what I'm saying? We got the technology. We got the platforms and we just got to do the work. And we love our own. Yeah, for sure. Texas was something different though. You could do it right here in Texas. Been doing it right here in Texas. You see what I'm saying? Like Texas, Kiki could do whatever, sell how many right here in Texas. And a lot of people don't have that. The Texas rap scene, it allowed us to have a very, a great life, you know, early. And I'm so glad that I was able to mature inside the game so I can really, I'm living much, much better in my older days, in my old game than I was at. The young little Kiki is a firecracker, it's up. I wouldn't change nothing. But being mature and able to last and survive the game and make it right here, it's easy as pie. Now it's just rolling. Wow. Yeah, because the thing that I wanted to say about you that I've noticed, you know, just watching the way how you grind and you hustle. When I see a lot of legend, because I think of you as a legend and I think of other Houston legends, I see how they are sitting back and, you know, reaping the benefits from all the hard work that they've done before. And the way how you are, I know you're still reaping that benefit, but you still grinding, like, you still got shit from, like, then they sitting back and just chilling. Now I ain't doing no chilling. That's what I noticed about you. And I'm like, I think you're one of the only ones that I see that keep pushing out music consistently, keep doing a lot, you know? I was just giving somebody an example about that yesterday, which was based on, I don't, I'm very blessed from a financial standpoint. Right. That's not just saying, because I always think I haven't missed anything that God got from him. I'm a spiritual person. I'm going to get everything I'm supposed to get. So I don't make my music all the time from a money standpoint. I make my music to make sure that they going to do it again. Like when I do 25 summers, the goal is, are you going to buy the next thing? I'm killing these niggas, that's by the masses. I am. Been holding so long, I'm giving classes. I swear. When I did legend, I knew that they was going to love 25 summers based on the reaction that I got from the legend. Pay attention, nigga, Texas is here. Ain't no stuntin', huntin' money for the rest of the year, issues. So when I go into my music, I tell the young artists this all the time, I'm not really worried about the stream, this, what is going to do it. I'm going to get it. The thing is keeping my fans excited about the next particular thing that I want to do. I'm running a catalog game. I'm running it up. I'm doing what I need to do. And relevance is everything. You know, these samples that you hear knocking those down and chunk up the do's and I'm a G and screwing out. I really want draped up and dripped out. All these are my samples. And people tell me, man, keep man, did such and such pay you on this and such and such. Hey man, Drake didn't pay me. Logic didn't pay me for samples. I didn't always get paid for something. But my relevance, being here today, still being important, still getting booked, still dropping my music, still doing what I need to do. And still being called to come do a podcast interview. Y'all don't just want to interview anybody. So relevance is the most important thing. Not always the money, the relevance gonna bring you the money. You are dope because when you look at all of those samples, you've been sampled more than any other artist really when it comes down to that screw phase, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's something out there we don't even know about. I play about that for thousands. We take them down, we take down thousands. You do this in one, so that's me, damn. We take them down all the time, you know what I'm saying? And you know, what's crazy is people call me to do features. And sometimes it'd be one that's been done 20 times. I'd be like, bruh, you know they done that with about 10 times, you know what I'm saying? But at the end of the day, I'm probably the most sampled artist in Texas, probably most of, but like I say, man, people would think that get under my skin, it doesn't, man, it plays a lot. Now I'm older now. Now I ain't gonna let you get away with everything. I'm just gonna let you get away with it. But I'm still in most importance relevance to me. Wow, man. So Drake, he just, you said, I heard you say that he just said the, he just said Drake, Drake, Drake, Drake, still got it right, would you? But see, that's a testament if I tell people, that's what we're talking about, the hard work. People don't understand a lot of things that we're getting now. Opportunity is hunting lands, rodeos and all that. It's behind not knowing publishing young, not knowing about samples and not knowing all that. Like I might have missed all that money for them samples early. And then 25 years later, the biggest rapper in the game come pay me for something. He barely even sampled something. I said, he just said something, I said Drake, Drake, Drake, I got logic, I got Booker T, I got Crown Raw. All these people are tapping into my music and sampling it and what else? Licensing it and all these different things. And it's 20 years later, and the best part about it, I own it now. Wow. So when they were sampling and doing all in there early, I didn't own it anyway, you know what I'm saying? So now I'm reaping the benefits of the samples and the licensing and all that. Man, I done Crown Raw this year, Booker T this year, all type of logic, you know, like I just said, so I get the opportunities later. So that's what I'm saying. When you focus on the big game, which is staying relevant and having an opportunity to still keep going, the other thing's gonna fall into place. Everything happens in God's time. Yeah, we on boss talk one on one. One on one.
