I'm still a twerk of the town Tell me the sisters, I'm hoakin' them down Hey guys, we're in a new episode of Talk of the Town Today we have a special guest Yes, Mr. On The Radar Radio Mr. Step In Step Out Don't Get Stepped on Gay P We in the building You already know what it is Talk of the Town, Chloe I appreciate you for showing me love all these years too You know what I'm saying? All these years, hell yeah Right, it's been like three, four years now That we've known each other about But Talk of the Town is only 2019 So yeah, it's been... Yeah, and I still feel like... Cause you was movin' already When my show was startin' up Yeah, and I feel like we first kind of met Around like probably pandemic time Like 2020-ish Something like that, yeah Yup, and we stayed locked in When did you come from your drop? Like, when did you come from That's gon' be your shit What? Your drop Oh, like what I just did? Well the Step In Step Out thing It kinda came from The cypher that I did With Hoodfly Mike and ASAP Ills Cause I was like Cause I don't even know how I started this Like I'm a step out They gon' step in I think it just kinda came to me naturally When we started the freestyles Every freestyles Every time, yeah And then Hoodfly Mike did the Step In Step Out Don't get stepped on So that's why like when I do the drops Like a lot of times I'll be like Where's the Hoodfly Mike You know what I'm saying Cause Hoodfly Mike kinda came up with the Don't get stepped on part And then in the background of that cypher Which is such a dope cypher Super underrated You hear like ASAP Ills be like Don't get fucking stepped on And like, so that kinda just stuck And I kinda incorporated that into like The drop that I do in interviews And just like my radio drops But yeah, that's kinda like how it started I really, there's really no magic sauce On how I ever came up with it Rob may remember it better than me But I kinda just like I just started it one day I think it evolved over time Cause I don't think it always I don't think it started off as Step In Step Out Don't get stepped on I'ma step out They gon' step in It kinda started with some other stuff too But it just kinda evolved into that I don't really remember who Who, who, who I don't remember the first video That I started it where it was just that It evolved over time into that So you had to get it down pat Yeah Alright, so we gon' play a little game I mentioned questions Okay, let's go Rapid fire Okay, most used emoji Oh, definitely the laughing emoji Like the crying with the two things The crying with the two, yeah People take that like People be like When I use the crying one People be like Oh, like, are you, no That's like my, that's I use that a little bit Because I think that It's funny as shit I don't like using the other ones I'm weird like that Okay, what sound do you listen to For motivation Oh, what sound do I listen to For motivation, man That's a good one Like, yeah It's a morning, got a long day About to get in the car What you about to throw on What's the locks You ain't really about shit You ain't really about shit about who The locks and DMX Okay, okay, okay Alright, what's a conspiracy Theory you think is real Oh, that aliens walk among us I did actually just talking about this The other day I know it sounds crazy But I really was talking about this The other day with somebody I'm like, bro, if If the government confirmed That aliens exist, right One, why would they do that? And two is like How far could they really be How far could they really be And if they're coming here All this often And like there's bodies of aliens That the government has recovered Then like you telling me that Like they ain't trying to come back For they get back Or they ain't trying to Or like there aren't more of them Just walking around So that's one Or I don't know if It's a conspiracy theory But I definitely believe in Bigfoot Bigfoot? Yeah Okay, okay, okay What's the best thing about your hometown? Man, the diversity of it Like I feel like where I grew up Because I grew up in two places Like I grew up in Queens And I grew up in LA But the one thing I like about both Is the fact that I was always around Multiple cultures You know what I'm saying So I never was just like Like my neighbors were Jamaican Haitian, Dominican, Puerto Rican Indian, Asian And I think what was so cool about that Was that through that I was able to expose myself to a lot Yeah, and I was able to grow As a person and understand Other people's cultures Which I know oftentimes is like Where people grow up Sometimes we're only exposed To one thing or one culture And then we're not really always Able to understand other people As we get older Because we weren't growing up We didn't grow up with them So I think that's something really beautiful That I got to be around Growing up in New York Okay, last thing you spent money on? Oh man, what I spent money on Oh, the last thing I spent money on Was Papas after My birthday party the other night When I got back to the telly Me and my home girl from Florida She came to visit Because she's my best friend from high school We got back to the telly And I'm like, yo, I'm hungry It was like 5 a.m. And for some reason There was a Papas open in midtown And we buzzed down that Papas That shit was crazy Papas, yeah Favorite app on your phone? Uh, Instagram I feel like that's what I use the most And the last one Celebrity Crush Ooh, that's a good one See, like everybody always says Ruby Rose I don't even really want to I don't even really want to I don't even want to say I don't want to shoot my shot no more Y'all got it Yeah, y'all got it Has Ruby Rose done the honorita? No, but like I actually like Before I say like a celebrity crush Like all jokes aside Like I really love Ruby Rose As like an artist And I feel like she just doesn't drop enough Right But I would love I heard that she might be getting ready to drop some So I would love For Ruby Rose For Ruby Rose to come do it on the radar All jokes aside Oh, Celebrity Crush definitely got me SZA Okay, okay I love me an R&B nature girlie That's my favorite Okay So how did you get started In the anger field you feel like? Well, my story is interesting Because I actually I started off at St. John's University In 2014 I started off as a business major Funny enough But then Within like a couple weeks of school Like I tell the story a lot Like I was taking a calculus class And I'm like I suck at this But I found the radio station On campus that first month And I had a radio show Within my first three weeks there So I was like Oh, wow And I like where I grew up The community at the radio station Was multicultural A lot of different people there But like It kind of reminded me Of what I grew up around So I was like I'm going to join this radio station So I started at the radio station And then I ended up Changing my major to communications And then everything just kind of Went from there Like when I was a sophomore Spring semester Angie Martinez came to the Radio station to do her book tour And then that's where she met Myself and Nyla And then ever since then I've been at Power 105 Since I was 19 And me and Nyla You guys kind of Started our journey together Because that seemed tight Yeah, me and Nyla Like we went to school together Obviously we both went to St. John's We didn't ever have like A radio show together At school But we had done like Cross over On other people's Exactly And we You know she did her own interviews On her shows I did my own interviews on my shows But you know when they're like Oh like you know Who do you want to do The interview with you With Angie I was like Obviously Nyla You know so Me and her did that together And it's just been cool Because we both Have like the same trajectory In our career But we've both come up At the same time And it's just some cool St. John's shit at the end Of the day too That we're able to do this Together too So you helped you In a sense get this opportunity Or do you feel like Schools where you learned everything And you kind of outsourced from there I feel like school like One thing I tell people About going to school is like I say I tell people to go to school Like not only Like cause gay again In education is important But sometimes like You know certain The network Yeah you network Like certain schools provide Better education than they do Networking Certain schools provide Better networking than they do Education I feel like St. John's Would provide a better networking Than education I don't even use to this day But they did Connect you with a lot of people A lot of incredible people Obviously Angie And I took some classes Like Photoshop and things like that That were able to help me You know even do what I do now So yeah so I would say like I would say like St. John's Really did help me with the networking Cause like I said I got that I met Angie through it And I met Nyla through it And Ramel who works I'm a public diamond Who works at Z100 So we kind of built this Like tight knit bond Of like a St. John's community Within the music industry And we're all still friends Now to this day Type shit Yeah That seemed pretty locked in Did you finish college though? Yeah I finished college Yeah I graduated in 2018 Damn so you was in school At working on the radar Anyone working at the radar? No so when I was in school Well I got my full time Well I was interning from Like when I was a sophomore To when I graduated in 2018 So I was already working At the radio station For two years as an intern Yeah And then before I graduated I got a full time position To run all the social media For power 105 And then that summer I graduated When I started on the radar So on the radar I started Five years ago This month in 2018 Yeah So it started around your birthday Or the birthday party So you mixed your birthday With the anniversary Yeah I mixed the birthday with it I mixed the anniversary We're gonna do something else For on the radar for the five year Like a more like Proper installation Like a more pop up thing But the birthday party We did mix with the five year Just kind of killed Two birds one stone with that Yeah but like How many days after was it Do you know the exact dates? Well okay so the thing is There's like a It's like a floating day right Because the first ever on the radar Upload on the channel was I think the 27th of August But we had it uploaded Originally on the power 105 One channel before that So it probably is earlier But I count the five year Anniversary of on the radar Being the day that we first Uploaded the first interview To the channel So it's like I think it's like Either the 27th or the 29th Yeah About this month but yeah That's crazy because The first time's anniversary Is the same month as my birthday too For real? That's only how close is it? I think it's like Around your birthday You feel real inspired You start to think about Like things I should have done Things that I can do And then you're like Alright you know what I'm gonna try to build Something out of this Build something out of this Okay so So Okay so working at the radio When did you get your slot Because you have a morning slot now I got two slots now I got the Friday night slot Which is on the radar When me and DJ won Then I got the Sunday slot But I first got my slots Normally when you Start doing radio They start you off on the overnight Two to five in the morning Just because that's kind of Like where you can learn And make mistakes Before you go to the mid days Or during the day right So I started doing it It's about I think it's almost two years now That I've been doing That I've been on the radio But they started me off September of 2021 And it was overnight And I was doing five days a week So I was And so I'm not I wasn't really a night person Before that Like I kind of was But like I hated being up At like five six in the morning But it was cool because What it taught me was It taught me to be comfortable With being up at night So I would be up at From two to five in the morning Then I would just sleep During the day And that's when I started Doing those shifts And then after After that You know like kinda I would say like six months And they stopped me doing that And then they gave me The mid day shifts That was rotating And then like four or five months into that They gave me the Friday night slot To play on the radar freestyle And you know just go crazy on And then a couple months after that They gave me the Sunday slot So everything was like a very slow progression But like you know It happened over time You know fairly quickly I guess you could say Right Not for sure For sure So like when doing on the radar And doing those free styles And things like that Did the radio station take time To like wanna be helped With that bridge Or you really had to lay down The foundation It took time I mean cause you know what it is Like I feel like Young people we have to prove ourselves But I think in general too Everything is like a proving Like you gotta prove like a Prove a concept Right Concept I think consistency too Consistency too Cause I think when I first started I always thought that like I deserved everything like Off the rip Because I was just like I had the vision That's honest But you gotta But as I worked more And as I focused more And as I kinda learned more I realized that like It's not about like Just having the vision You gotta prove the vision You gotta show the consistency And it's like The numbers gotta be there Two at the end of the day So if I'm not doing anything Then why would they Pick me up or have me Do other things with them Which I understand now Cause I see it now Cause I'm at a certain level Where it's like I understand that But like something I would preach To like younger people Who wanna do what we do Or who wanna get into media Like you just gotta like Actually prove yourself first And honestly Consistency is everything Like the more consistent you are The more your brand's gonna get Out there The more videos you make The more your brand's gonna get Out there Like one view on a video You're already doing something right Cause somebody's watching out there So that's kinda how that happened That's right Okay so As progressing now How are you going about Picking your guess now? I mean like you know the one Here's the incredible thing About on the radar right The incredible thing about On the radar is that You could have someone Like Drake on the platform But then you could still Like I shot I shot like Rosco G The other day You could still have that The duality of having someone Big like Drake and Rosco G On the same platform I think by the time people See this ESTG will probably be out We shot ESTG But then also that same day We shot somebody locally From New York You know what I'm saying So it's really just like I gotta see the vision Somebody from my team Gotta see the vision too With the artist because At the same time it's like I can't be everywhere All at once anymore Like I can't always be A lot of hats you wear now I wear a lot of hats I got a lot of different shows I do But I do do my due diligence I have income in artists Whether they be from New York Or be from other cities But that's pretty much like I know that's a very broad way To go about it Or very broad way to say it But it's really how it is Honestly like there's no magic Secret sauce On how I pick artists For on the radar It's just that like I see it And I'm like okay That's a good look for us And that's a good look for the artists And it makes sense Because they're moving right now And then that's kind of How we'll pick them Yeah I was saying That's something I feel like We appreciate Especially all of us That's still working up Is that like The whole boundaries now Of you blocking those local artists Yeah They can still be up there With the Drake's and ESG's And so on and so forth Yeah like you And it's cool because they get to be like Oh this where Drake stood Like that happened to me yesterday But then like you know Also we have artists like Roy Woods Who is one of Drake's artists Who came yesterday And he's like bro I love this platform Because I use it to find artists Not just from New York But from everywhere like We've had like local Toronto artists Yeah I travel too yeah Yeah we've had artists From all around come on So it's kind of become like Cool because like I said You got the local artists From down the block Wherever you from But you might also see like Real Boston Richie Love Tyler Sleazy World Go Sleepy Hollow Like bigger artists On the show too And it's just like a nice Little blend of everything Time Yeah for sure for sure for sure Okay so what's your Favorite viral moment From on the radar Oh favorite viral moment From on the radar Because you got a couple I know we have a few Definitely like I'll do like one interview one And then like one like Freestyle one Because I feel like That's the best way to split it up Favorite interview one Got to be the Ice Spice Nike Tech one You know what I'm saying Nike you owe me a check Right But that's got to be Because that one was so like Unexpectedly that popped off too And it was like a clip in the interview That I didn't even think to cut Somebody else cut it Which I thought was even funny I'm like how did I miss this And then favorite freestyle one Like obviously D-Tang Had kicked everything off And I thought that That was such an incredible moment But at the same time Like you can't deny that Like looking at the four one stuff With them mixing like In like Jen, Kyle and Tata In with like Yi and Uzi Like Beats Like that's That's dope Like that's incredible And like the fan They did a I showed in my interview with My second interview with four one That's coming out soon Like I showed Tata Tata never saw the family guy mashup So like I showed Tata The family guy mashup And Tata was like How did I miss this one But that just goes to show you How like crazy that time period was Of like having all these Different mashups at the same time So yeah I'll definitely say like From the freestyle one Like watching the four one One get all these different remixes Was just like super crazy Nah for sure for sure So but Drake's got verse to the month Yes for Genius Was you expecting that Or like Were you expecting Drake Or the verse to the month The verse to the month No I was not expecting that I think it's cool like You know cause I think that Like a lot of people like With this Drake freestyle It's kind of like a return to Format for Drake Like I feel like Drake was recently Like oh like they miss an old Drake girl don't tell me Cause he's gonna put the For the Dogs album out But I feel like that this freestyle Was cool cause it kind of gave A little bit of that old Drake And I feel like that's why I got That verse to the month too For sure for sure So how'd you get the Drake call Like what was happening What was going on Well the real like The real story behind it is Drake had like DM'd us Like about a month ago Saying he wanted Like it's really like Not that crazy of a story Like he DM'd us saying He wanted to come up Wanted to bring Sench And then tour happened In New York and then Next thing you know he was there Okay so how was that We got a security building Cause Drake is coming How was that Well I mean like Alright so with that Like cause me speaking on how That goes would definitely Get me in trouble Yeah with this top secret Like the day he was coming Like nobody can know but staff I mean yeah just staff knew Like just staff knew You know what I'm saying Like I'm not gonna speak on Like how his security moves At all cause that's not my place But it was trust me The block and everything It was secure It was secure Without saying it too much Okay okay okay So now do you feel like Okay you coming up now I'm pretty sure like you know When the um When it starts to really hit in The fan a lot of people That probably wasn't supporting You back then are now super supportive Right And things like that Do you feel like um You was blocked of any opportunities On your way up Um I mean yeah like I feel like there were a couple Times where I could have had Somebody bigger or somebody Who I really wanted to But they were just like Oh like the platform doesn't Feel right um especially when It was like coming out the pandemic And it was a lot of drill artists Like right like people Like seeing that many drill artists On a platform scared a lot of people Um but also like I knew that like as everything Opened back up We would be able to diversify more Yeah um which I Which we definitely did You know what I'm saying You were there when 2C and HK Um so once we were able to Diversify I was like Look guys like It's not just a drill platform We could do more so like These other artists That you're like afraid to bring me Like they can come And then you know Slowly started rolling in We did the Rolling Loud We met a lot of incredible People at the Rolling Loud And shit like that And then that's how we were able To kind of expand the show And also get those blessings But it's the business You know what I'm saying It's part of like having to Prove yourself and trying To get those looks like It's just part of the game Like I don't take anything Personal cause I know it's just Business at the end of the day Um so yeah it is what it is What advice would you give Those people that are I guess working on their Brands and crafts And trying to get Trying to be more diversified Man like I know it's hard to say It's like it's cliche It's hard to say cause it's cliche Right but like it's really like You just gotta stay consistent With everything because Consistency is the key And then also like Like let's say And I tell this to like You know people who have like New York platforms That are like drill platforms To like friends of mine I'm like look man like You certain things don't Last forever like You look at every music scene Like music scenes have died Out over time Not saying that drill is Going anywhere right now Cause it's still very prominent So very popular in New York But like if you want to You know past this era You gotta expand You gotta like You gotta look at When people like I know you have K Carbon Coming to do the show right Shout out Toby Like you know It's like doing things like that And you know We just did Oh you did fat Yeah exactly Like you know what I'm saying You meet one person from Memphis And that opens A million doors to everybody else You know I did Gloria's first interview In New York That opened every door To Memphis I could ever Have asked for You know what I'm saying I did YTV fat Then I got to speak With Money Bag at the BET Awards Like there's like Once you start kind of expanding And you show people in other cities Like hey look You're also welcome here It's not just about me It's not just about New York Or it's not Wherever you live Whether it be L.A. Memphis whatever Like you show them that Like they can do artists From other places too And that's how I explain people Like explain to people That like that's how you expand And you grow And also consistency Like if you're not being Consistent you're gonna get Lost in the algorithm So if you really want to keep Growing as a personality As a brand As a show As a platform Like you just got to Stay consistent and drop Like every day Yeah that's what's happening To us right now a little bit Because like on the blog Because you know we got the Blog and the interviews On the daily tip It is a lot of drill stuff Because they do so much stuff But on the YouTube side of things The people we sit down With are more Memphis So I'm trying to like Or just out of state periods So I'm trying to mix it All together Right like you got a bunch Of Jersey people coming You're after this Which is dope Right so I'm just trying To expand more too You know what I'm saying But people also don't be I feel like doing the research I feel What People don't do the research For artists Like let's say After something they might Not do the research They might just see glimpse At it and be like Well here the thing too Is like a lot of people Like other states like Sometimes even in other states They'll be like Oh I know fat from your show But I don't know about The drill stuff from your show Which is kind of interesting Now considering that we came Up off so much drill New York drill music That it's like Oh yeah I know YTB fat But I don't know who 4-1 is But to me that's kind of It's a good thing That's a good problem To have Exactly like now You can go introduce yourself To all this other music And shit Oh yeah Do you feel like The freestyle Sort of overpowered your interviews Or like what do you think I mean absolutely But that's not a bad thing You know like I don't have a problem It's not a bad thing I don't have a problem with it Because like the interviews I still love doing And like I feel like The interviews for me Like yeah it's a content piece But it's also a conversational tool To build a relationship With an artist Beyond the freestyles Like me and Roy Woods Yesterday we had a great Like 40 minute conversation About life Being a fan Being a He's a pops now He gave up doing drugs But like We built like a real connection Through these interviews So often times like I look at the interviews Like yeah it's a great interview Like real fans are going To love it And it might not get As many views as a freestyle But like it gives me An opportunity to speak With the artist Beyond the freestyle And then through that Like we build this friendship With each other And then it's like Oh now if I need Like you know When he left I was like Yo Roy like send me From Toronto That you like Cause I want to do some shit With them He's like I got you And then like you know The interviews are just another form Of networking to me too But also great content pieces Please go watch my interviews Cause there's some The really good ones The G Herbal one that I did Last year is one of my favorites Yeah that was a good one Thank you Yes that G Herbal was a good one Glorilla I feel like you have A couple good ones Yeah we had a couple good We had a band that Destroyed the only one Destroyed the only Doesn't do interviews Doesn't do interviews at all And the whole interview Me and him were like Talking about video games Like a way to get Artists out of their Typical Okay how'd you start rapping Okay Everybody asks Destroyed the only about Playboy Cardi Like I don't want to do that Like I want to talk to Destroyed the only about Overwatch And like Shit that he likes And doesn't like to do You know so Yeah so So yeah People really enjoy I think Sending down with you too Cause they feel like You're not click baby Like some interviews try to Right That's the point Like I think like You know I came up To say this too In interviews like I came up under Angie And like You know kind of like That old school form Of interviewing So for me If like people want to Get into the business And get into the drama Then we can do it But I'm not going to Reach for it Like I'm not going to Be like Okay so you did this Like nah Like I'll kind of Let them bring it up Naturally and then If I could tell That they want to Talk about Or they tell me before Like you know I want to address this Then let's address it But until then I'm burning the bridge Off of a click baby Or something else happens Yeah exactly So on the radar records I don't know You didn't really announce That you Nah it's announced It's announced I'm not like with the deal What deal With empire No no no So what we're doing I can say what we're doing Empire, shout out Bobby You don't have to Nah it's not like A deal with empire We're working on a project With like Dusty Locain And 95mm So we got that Coming up with some About free Dusty He's going to be home soon On the radar Still like an independent label As of right now We're still Taking the meeting Shopping around But we are doing Like little one-off projects With like empire With Dusty I got a collab project With Matt Ali Which is going to have cash Cash Cobain We're working on Getting Wolf Face on it Wolf Face Joey Vonte the singer Groovy B-Jax Ken Rebel Chow Lee Trafflor Guap 917 Rax is on that project too Like that's something With him I got a three pack With 917 Rax coming out They got a couple projects You working on Yeah, yeah Like I'm really in the space Now where It was funny because my man Sent me this clip of Gucci Talking earlier And it was like Gucci was talking about How like the label Is like why you drop All this music a year Or why do you drop so much Like you should Drop once a year And he's like That's how they try to Control you He's like You gotta realize That music is an asset So the more music you have The more leverage you have To do a label Um We started in January Because we're like Yo we have all these Freestyles And there's so much That we could do with these Freestyles And there's so much extra Of course money That we're leaving on the table By not putting these on streaming But also Opportunities that we Could give artists Like to have Like because some of these Artists don't have Big streaming numbers Like others do But like If we put them in On the radar ecosystem If someone Like it's like how People could get lost In our channel for hours By watching a couple To get lost on our streaming On our streaming Page By like You know They go watch the Blockwork Or listen to the Blockwork freestyle But then they're like Oh look They just dropped A record called Sexy Besties Out now Right Then they go listen to that Or then they'll go back And they'll listen to some Old like Like Desi Hines Or Aaron Rose Freestyles Like there's like A lot It's like a spider web Right Where it's like You could get lost So I guess You now Like Sexy Bestie They have like A different cover art Than the on the radar Yeah that's like That's like a real single though No that's a real single So like When do you determine We're going to Separate it for us This will be a freestyle And this will be a song Well the freestyle Obviously are just like They come on the platform Like Maya Or Blockwork Or anybody And like They just do their shit And then it goes up on Streaming It goes up on the page Sexy Besties And like To others Those were like In studio Like we created those records Together Like when we did Sexy Besties That was When me and Matt Were working on our project Together And then he put Chao while we were there On it And Vonte on it And then we're like Yo like We should put this out Together Like this would be great And then we came up with Like the porn VHS Kind of cover art Like the Pounder Drown The Two Sizzies Yeah like We came up with After the fact We had done that We had like A eight hour studio session Recording to me And Matt Ali project And that cover And that song Was one of the songs That came out of it Fire Fire Okay so like So But the Drake one Got a billboard entry How was that When you got the newest Crazy Honestly like I always wanted to see Like the on the radar name Be Be on billboard But to think It would be like What Drake was like Not something we expected And it's cool cause We're also Like I always said I wanted to be the bridge The gap between The UK and And America And I think we did that Very well with A.J. Tracy Diggity And a lot of other artists And of course Central C And this being Central C's First ever American Billboard Entry Is so great to be a part Of that Cause I would have thought Honestly I would have Thought Doja would have been But I don't know Why Doja never did Cause I know It's a big record Over here still But I don't know I think that I don't know How to figure out Which category to put Certain songs That's what I think But I don't know where Doja's still hip hop though Like the Doja like I'm talking about Central C's Doja record Yeah Nah that's not really poppy It's definitely hip hop But I think But I don't know why I feel like it Probably might have been But I guess maybe At the time Central C Like they would Consider him Like an international act Maybe there's a different chart For that I gotta check But being part of his First ever Hot 100 Entry Shout out Central C man Shout out Drake So when he was When he was building On the radar records Trying to get I guess somebody's freestyle Clear What's labels giving you A hard time? I mean like A lot of the ones That we put out Are wit labels Like most of them Are independent artists But like we do put Some of them out with labels And you know It's just kind of Like what we learn What we're learning Is just like The ins and outs of labels Like we're learning With the labels On how to like Go about putting These freestyles out With your partner With getting these freestyles out And we put The one hour passion out So that one's out And we got a few others Coming with labels too But definitely working with labels Does take a little bit more Of a time Because there's more cooks In the kitchen Which is why Like you know I love that On the radar still works With so many independent artists Because it just makes my job A lot easier To put these freestyles out And you still Like you say Giving them a network To help them get their Recognition And all that Absolutely So of course I love how you support Your show Love C team They come with you everywhere Literally they come with me Topes outside on a Zoom call right now For our five year anniversary show So like How did you confirm Like who you wanted On your team And like how did you go about that Here's the craziest Shit about my team right No this is really crazy I never interviewed Any of them To be a part of the show Like a lot of how My team came around Is like they really Were just like Well Rob came around My main producer and engineer He came around Because he was like The one who Was working at the other That I was shooting at When we started doing On the radar right John was just Someone who I had known For years but we never worked On anything he just started Like coming around And coming around And coming around bringing me More like lyrical type of Artists more Like Benny the butcher type Artists and from Buffalo To like he brought me A lot of like The Griselda guys Nice nice nice Calvin was just coming Around being a photographer Like he came around That's how he started with Us And then Toby was Started coming around By bringing me artists Like she brought me Real Boston Richie An interview ever And his first ever freestyle And she was like Let me do your schedule And then over
