It's a unique house that you bought e ceo. And I'm with the lovely amazing official Miss Jamaica. What's going on? No, no, no. My day will walk on. But let me let y'all know y'all need to like, subscribe, follow us on all social media platforms. We have our Instagram, TikTok, Facebook. Now we do have Patreon. So definitely that's the only place you will find or full length interviews after a while is Patreon. If you want to see it, you got to subscribe. You got to do that membership. And then you'll see all of our footage that you can't find nowhere else. Man, hey, man, we got a guy here. Now I don't need no introduction because his name is going to say it all. You know what I'm saying? When you got this name, you got to stand on it, man. Kevin got bands is in this house, man. Stop playing, man. What's going on? Man, it's good to have you on the show, man. So, man, we gonna get into it, man. I like to get all the way down to the nitty gritty, man. You from Dallas? Yeah, I'm from Singin' Hills. Singin' Hills? Man. Where's that? Oh, never heard of that. Yeah. Well, it's here, man. It's a budget place in Dallas. What was it like growing up in that area? It was cool. A lot of hustlers. You know, I was around my daddy and he was a big time hustler before he like, you know, went the other way. But how a bunch of get money niggas in Singin' Hills for real, especially when we were kids, it wasn't like, you know, not all the young niggas beyond the other type of time. But back then it was just a bunch of get money, a bunch of hustlers. So I was just around a bunch of get money niggas for real. So how that made you feel as a kid? That's just what you wanted since you grew up in it and that's all you saw? I really ain't know for real because I, like, dad started coming around when I was like eight or something. So I really ain't know, like, what was going on, but you could just see it, you know, new cars, new houses, everything. Yeah, of course. Yeah, for sure. So I really ain't know, like... So you weren't exposed to the full length of everything? Exactly. Okay. But like once you get like 10, 11, start knowing, like, what's going on for sure. Kids talk. Exactly. So then, like, after you start seeing that thing, you gotta have it because this is what you see. You find out this is how I need to get to it, really. So you were living with your mom and your dad was in and out or he was actually living there? Yeah, he was living there. Okay. And then like when I was like eight, nine or something like that, fourth grade, whatever fourth grade was, how old I was, that's when he left. So then that's when I, you know, they split. So I went with my mama. Okay. For sure. Did that affect you? Cause you seem like you were a daddy's boy. Yeah, I was. But at first, I ain't gonna lie, I was a kid. Yeah, they fucked me up. They stopped coming around. Did you like sparrow out where your mama said, I can't deal with you. I can't cut all of that. I started to kick that early because I ain't gonna lie, but back then it wasn't because like, I didn't look like a daddy when I was around, you know what I'm saying? But as you get out, you kind of think like, yeah. Yeah, cause you was mad and you didn't know how to, kids, okay, people from a long time, it falls all up into these children. They don't know how to express themselves. That's why everybody act out in anger. That's why people do crazy stuff because they don't know how to open up and express how they're feeling and how what had happened affected me. Thanks. You understand what I mean? So, and I think that that is a curse that us black folks keep passing on to kids and kids and kids and people. And I think it's getting a little bit better because people talking about counseling when way back in the days, we never used to go to counseling. Exactly. And now you have a lot more people saying it's okay to be black and go to counseling to tell people your feelings and whatever. Yeah. So it might be changing, but it's... Yeah, not for sure. Not just for sure. So when did you start doing the music or when did you start feeling like I wanted to go off into this? Senior year. I was rapping with some niggas and like the first song we did, it was going crazy. Like everybody was listening to it. Everybody was listening. Everybody was listening to the song. We did the Her I Go. You remember that? Who is that? Mystical. Yeah. And like, they're like 20K views or something. But like we kids though, you know, it's just our first song, first video. We, you know what I'm saying? But after that, after I realized I was taking one song and everybody catch away. Then I started getting on, you know what I'm saying? But I ain't really started taking it serious. I'm going to say like 20, 18, 2019. You know what I'm saying? Like, yeah, like after I had made this song called Modest, really. I made this song called Modest. I started getting like radio play and doing like shows and features with the big artists in the city and shit. Then I started taking it like serious. Like this could really go somewhere. So I ain't never stopped after that. I've been out there since. Wow. So when you think about just the Dallas music scene, what's one of the things that you see in Dallas that you feel there's a need, a niche for as far as the music go? Do you feel like you can feel the gap? But what is the thing? What is missing in Dallas? We've had some huge hits here. But lately the music, Memphis has been the sound to me. I mean, basically we hadn't had no mega hit. Don't you feel me when I say that? Thanks. Thanks. So what, what is the solution? I feel like, like, not, I feel like not like, not like asking somebody for something, but I really feel like the other cities, like they be having like the big artists that could just come back and like, you know what I'm saying? Like the, you know, got it in the young dog, the money bag. Yo, you know what I'm saying? They already at the top. So don't take them, nothing to grab down and take somebody up with them. Like how you all got it doing in Memphis. Dallas don't got that. Well, whoa, whoa, whoa. You got yellow beads here. Yeah, but like he definitely, he definitely have the, the strength to pull somebody if he, if he took it there. So why do you think that's not happening? I don't know. Can't speak for somebody else. I don't know. I ain't gonna lie. I don't know. It just something to where, you know, you got, you got some key, key players here. I see big X is doing his thing too. Yeah. You got a couple of, you got some, you got some things just happening, but you just don't have no things just, just popping all the way off. You, I even got, you got a Bumpett Johnson. I like him too. Yeah. There are some people here that, that, that really, you know, you got Gunnam easy here. I like Gunnam easy too. Like, and you got, you know, like I said, you got, you got some guys here that really, you feel like they're there, but why is it the big hits in the unity? I think it's because of the, the disconnect from unity. You don't really, everybody's kind of separate doing their own thing. You think so? I know so cause the divided house can't stay. Because like in Memphis, they divided, but they all winning though. But they didn't start off like that. Thanks. But we didn't start off like that either. Everybody was put together. Well, I mean, it wasn't like on the level that these guys was. Thanks. So it's just, I think it's, I think it's just something to think about. I'm just trying to figure out what the problem is, why the music ain't, ain't scaling like it should to me. That's just my opinion. Yeah. I, I, I like, honestly, I really feel like, like, I ain't gonna, I don't feel like yellow obligated or them niggas obligated to do anything for anybody. That ain't what I'm saying. But I'm saying, like, I feel like if it was, like, if they was just like, okay, we finna push bro. Whoever bro is, not me. I'm just saying period. Anybody like nigga, like how your guy got behind money bag, you know, money bag, get behind bro. And then you saw something like that. It'd be easy cause it's too many niggas in the city going crazy right now. Like, like, like, I'm saying, like even the niggas you mentioned, but it's like a bunch of young niggas in the city, like 23 on the 18, like that is going crazy. Like 53 baby. Don't know. Montana on them. Bari on them. It's a bunch of. Bari. That's my boy. It's a bunch of. I know. Yeah. I knew that name when you said it. It's a bunch of young niggas in the city going crazy. Is he the wizard? Uh. Shit. Headhunt y'all murder. Uh. Shit. It's a bunch of niggas. It's a bunch of niggas going crazy. It's, it's like savage. It's a bunch of niggas who like got the image, got the music. Uh. You know what I'm saying? I'm going to say popularity. The name, you see what I'm saying? But shit. It's just like niggas ain't crossing that bridge where they need to cross it. But I'll be feeling like it's going to get there because everybody working right now. Yeah. Five projects in 2022. Six. So he missed one. Six. You know what I'm saying? No cap. I'm going to drop another one right now. My biggest one, like with the biggest features on it, biggest everything. So shit. I need to be working. I was in crazy. What's the name of it? That thing. I'm going to go crazy. I'm going to go crazy. I'm trying to tell you. So do you have a problem working with artists out of town or you only work with Dallas artists? Nah, I got some other niggas from out of the city. I got, uh, I got some, some a rapper from Houston. I don't want to say no name because I'm single. I'm pushing. That's fine. I got, uh, I got some, I got a bunch of songs and news from forward. I got this, uh, uh, rapper from Nebraska. He going crazy to me on there. So I'll be working. I'll be trying to like, at first I wasn't trying to like, you know, get out the city. I was straight Dallas or forward DFW. But now, so I've been trying to like push it out there. You got some bars for me? Yo, come on. Okay. Let me see. Check it, man. Okay. We got, we got bands. GB. Let's go, man. Boss talk one on one. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. GB. Okay. Love. Love. Love. Love. Love. Love. Love. Love. Love. Honey, can't play. You ain't never seen that in a day. LeBron, I'm just being away. I'm impatient. I ain't trying to wait. Just get out my way. Blues in my pocket. Feel awesome. Tug it behind me. I done lost them. Label trying to sign me. It's gone cops and LeBron at the time. He gone hulk on Bad Beach as fat. Throwing more like a pig. I'm a smetch there. It's going to touch down like a head bae. Get fly in a big pot. So pick it up before my head shake. Lubitin, Bel Red and Black. Get a reverse. Look, I don't know what I'm a beater. But fuck them whole day. Because he scurred. I be knocking down girls. I'm a pre-player.

I'll cash all in like a nil niggas. Really lit. I ain't beat for no shrimp niggas. But now man, like I said, I just love to see the new energy. Every one of y'all new guys, when the new people come, I always get them. Whether it's big eggs, whoever, I always get them. Hot boy, whatever. Always show love, too. Got to get it. Like I said, the thing is, when Terry Blue called me, shout out Dallas Glover. Who is this nigga? You know, I'm be hard on these niggas, you know what I'm saying? He's like, nah, man, he cool, man. I'm like, hey, man, I made him wait a day or two. But it wasn't in the bad way. For sure. It just, you know, it means something to me. It got to be for real. Most niggas, you know, they jump in this game and jump out. I had a lot of dudes come on here and lie to me last year. I keep telling people that. They say that we're going to do this. They're going to do that. They say Drake, text them, all kind of stuff. And they were going to do this and everything was going to be up by now. And I'm still waiting. So now I'm getting frustrated because I'm like, man, I got to have patience, but I got to see the consistency. You know what I'm saying? I got to see the work, man. I'm being real. Like you guys mean a lot to what happens in the culture. It ain't just about Dallas. It's about our people, man. All our people. So that's why I'd be so hard on us. You know what I'm saying? You're young, man. A lot of people said they're dead and I strapped all these dudes and been in here, man. Yeah. You know, I love these dudes, man. I love to tell them, man, put God first.

No matter what you're doing, I always put him first. No matter what, because people tell you, Kate, when you can, he ain't looking at your ability. He looking at your availability. Thanks.
