I don't know what y'all had, a cousin that would give me $10,000 for my birthday. OK, biggest turn off. Bad or too stank brief. OK, and my last question. Let me get real close to my first one. How the fuck you going to pull up to the motherfucking party and forget the bar? Because I don't see none. I don't see none. Oh my god. Uh-huh. Oh my god. Because that's been, listen, I was saying before, like me and my best friend have been staying at all week. And so then I see you on your story or everybody's saying it to everybody. I'm like, nah, I have to bring it up because not only is the song a bop, but you in tune too. You listen to Y and J? That's my homeboy. We just did a song. Yeah, I like him. And I feel like I haven't heard the song that you did with him, but I could see how y'all would like work really well together. So I'm in tune. What's the song called? Yeah, I got with him. Yeah. He ain't named me yet. Oh, that's why I haven't heard it yet because it's not out. Got it. OK, so we're going to move on. How's New York been treating you? Good. I don't, New York don't owe me nothing. New York don't owe you nothing. Talk to us a little bit about the stuff that you've been doing since you've been here. Interviews, freestyles, podcasts. I got, I went to some fashion meetings. Got three clothes from Ikex. So it would be. Oh, I love that for you. Went to the Webster. Got some clothes. I do a lot of stuff. Went to Star Wars and Vanity. You see, so you named all of the stuff that you just did in New York. That seems very exciting. But when I asked you your favorite thing to do in New York, you said eat a chopped cheese. For real. That's my favorite. Where you get it from? But you was like, I can't name that because that was like the cliche thing to say. I definitely went to Harlem at Hodges and got a chopped cheese as fire. The first chopped cheese I had was in Harlem too. It was close to the 125th station on, I think it was on like 133rd on the east side. And it was really good. And I used to go there every Wednesday. But that's not about me. So, so, how you going to tell me it was really good for you? But when I said it was really good for me, you was acting like I was wrong. I never took that away for that. I never took, first of all, it never gave weirdo. But I didn't take that away from you. I was just saying for that to be like your favorite thing to do. I felt like it was a very cliche answer. I like to eat though. OK. That's wild though. Where did you eat your chopped cheese at? You know what? We're not even going to eat it. I was at Hodges in a car. We're not going to get it. I went in the car and I had my clear on because it was mad brick outside B. Do you see? And that's what I mean. That's, let me, let me hear your best New York impression. What you mean? Your best New York impression? Word to. Word to? Word to my mom? Word to my mom? My clear was mad brick outside B. These niggas walkie. Nah, we definitely do. I guess we do, but not like that. I guess for the God, I think it's walkie B. And they smoke on that blocky on the door. I don't know what your mom is. Your mommy? Come here. All right. I know. I know, because I don't even know what accent you was getting into, but you was losing in New York. I don't know New York for sure. So are you tapped into any New York artists? Have you been listening to any music? Yeah. Kaye Flock hard. TJ Hart. But then like no people around here. I like my man's little guy, Cassie Hart. Oh, period. Yeah, shout out to him. I got a couple of records when I was being artistful. I'm a good artist here. You know who I think that you would actually sound really good with on the track? Shawnee Villanue. You got tapped in. Yeah, I think that y'all sound really good together. Let's just dive into the Detroit music scene. You just said that you had a song with Y and J coming out. Fix your face. Thank you. So we had our mind pull up. Baby Tron also from there. You know, it's a lot of artists that's from there. Who was the first artist that like you was in tune with from out there in Detroit? We all grew up together. Everybody from Detroit grew up together. So we was all in tune for real, for real. Like I was in tune with everybody. Like I listen to everybody. My brother's side of the baby. That's my big brother. Of course. I fuck with Baby Tron. I grew up with Baby Money, Tabby, my cousin, and Peezy. He got music. He put me on the 2 Million Nut remix. I got music with Iceware, Vezo. I fuck with Babyface. Everybody cold. Like everybody sweet. I fuck with all of them. Like we grew up listening. Detroit listening to predominantly Detroit music. Like that's what we do. So how would you describe the music scene though? Like is there a certain type of vibe, a certain type of feeling that you would say that you get from it? You got like the smooth artist. Like you got like the smooth niggas. Then you get like you got like the niggas that like get money. Like then you got the drill artist. Like we got our own type of drill music. Like our drill music ain't like your drill music. Like our drill music more like witty. And like you got to know what's going on. To know what somebody talking about. But they talking about some real shit. Like. Yeah. Because. OK. Your drill music, you're going to say like, yeah. I shot dog. Like y'all they like. Because I feel like depending on who you listen to, it could be the same thing for New York drill music. Like if you don't know what's going on, it may just seem like. Yeah, but it's like New York drill music. We already know who they talk about. Like we know what happened. Oh really? You do? We know what's happening. OK, so y'all be tapped in. We tapped in. Like all that K-Flux shit. We we look at that shit. We like, yeah. Well that's like more like into the mainstream space. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Like we ain't like, you know, everybody ain't tapped in the Detroit artist, but everybody ain't tapped in the order underground New York artist. But like the main people, like when they talk about people, like we be tuned in. Like we like that shit. Like we like money and violence where we from. Like that's what we respected. Like. But a New York drill artist. Who a drill artist. See we don't do like drill, drill. Like that's what I'm saying. Like we got our own, like, let me see. But I don't really want to say no names because I don't want to be like, yeah, they talking about this and that. Like not for real. All right. And that's OK. So you just mentioned a lot of names. How would you say it's like, I know you said that you grew up listening. Glockboy T.J. Glockboy T.J. Glockboy T.J. That's my homeboy. I could say his name. Like Cockboy T.J. And they just like big money, big key. Like and like being gang. Don't think it's be like, you feel me? That's drill music. That's our drill music. OK, I got to tap in after this and see what your definition of drill music is. That's real drill. We're going to circle back on it. One of them need to see it. All my ops in the box, little scissors. Like that's the type of it. You feel me? You know what? All right. I'm up. OK. So would you say that it's a collaborative type of like environment? I know you say you grew up listening to these artists, but would you say that they be open and open, excuse me, to working with upcoming artists? Everybody open up, work with certain people. Like everybody. Like some people get along with some people. Some people don't get along with other people. That's just like everywhere though. But like for the most part, people in Detroit, if they know you, they'll work with you. Like they don't know you. Like I ain't going to fuck with nobody. I don't know. But like mostly everybody know each other. So everybody be working. A collab that I saw that you have in the works that I was like kind of surprised to see was with CashDaw. So that you're one of the featured, the confirmed features, excuse me, on her upcoming project. What was it like working with her? She hurt. Was that somebody that you was tapped into also as you was coming? I knew like, we weren't super close, but I know CashDaw for sure. Do you watch BMF? Yeah. She doing her thing on BMF. I still have some episodes I need to catch up on. For sure. I've seen her titties on BMF too. That was hard. Here he called. Not fire. I mean, hey. She got some fire titties. It's cool. Shout out to CashDaw. So are there any artists that you would like to work with? Yeah. Yeah. Industry artists though. Like who? G-Heartbow, Kodak, Lil Durk. No ladies. LMA, Summer Walker. Summer Walker, like one of my favorite artists. And I just want to tell Summer Walker, if you're listening, make a second verse to write. Make a second verse to write, girl. Writing was fire, wasn't it? No, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah. You want to know something like, I don't like that. These days, the song's just being so short. But Summer Walker be doing that. Because she, even with Session 32, I felt like Session 32 could have been so much longer. So did God. And then she kind of did like a part two to Session 32, but it didn't give like part two to something else. I'm begging you for more. Like at the end of writing, you got to do that for me. Because I be singing that shit. Yeah, she did her big one on that. And then it just go on. You be singing riot? What for your love, I need a riot, riot. You be hitting that? Yeah, I know. OK, I heard you. All right, so a lot of things have changed over the years. First of all, the hang time is given. You have new visuals coming now. A lot of new things we see working. How would you compare where you started to where you are now in your career? I had a little bit of money. Now I got a couple dollars. You got a couple dollars? Sure. All right, what about your sound? How would you say that your sound developed? I figure out what people like. I figure out what I like to do, like what make me comfortable. Like at first, I was just trying stuff. And then I figure out what was me and what wasn't me. So now I know what I could try, what I could put out, stuff like that. So it's just like certain stuff just absolutely not me. Certain stuff I can try. And then certain stuff just I know. If I put this out, people don't gravitate to it. And so what is it that you use to get to that conclusion? Is it based on the feedback that you get from your audience? Is it based on how you feel when making the songs? What is it? Certain songs I make, I just be like, yeah, just that. But I really like my cousin, Dolla, he had. Sada had one of them to get on the beat. Then he's like, no, that ain't me. And then I just had a brain blast, like I'm jumping on a lot of beats that just not me to up. And I just started figuring out what BPMs I like, what sounds I like, stuff like that. And what like tempos and stuff I rap best at. Do you have a certain producer that you like working with? JC, that's like my go-to. I grew up with him. But I've been working with Go-Gree. It's like he's so hard. And then somebody named Thomas Beat, he fired too. And it's interesting that you said that now you're figuring out what works for you and what doesn't. Because in listening to your old music, like your energy cover like seven years ago. Oh, damn. Yeah. Listening to that and then listening to the music that you're making now, I feel like the difference is before it sounded like you were trying to, not saying this is what you were doing, but it was kind of like, I'm letting y'all know that this is the type of nigga I am. It's the way I'm moving and this is what I'm doing. But now it's just very matter of fact. It's like, there's no points to prove. You either know, if you know, if you don't, you going to find out. So I guess it goes to that like comfortability. You really tapped in though. Oh, because I brought up energy? How the fuck was you? Yeah, you got like mama. You got like a few songs out there. You was mad weird. Now you ain't weird no more. I told you it never gave weird. It never gave weird like. Because people be interviewing, people don't even know what they talk about. No, I definitely know. You ain't weird no more. If you don't know now, you know, I'm good. Now we good now. We good now. All right. So do you still listen to your old songs like that? I don't really listen to my music like that. At all. Not even like your new songs? I listen to something like I just recorded and being like, I try to, I listen to R&B for real. Like I got this whole R&B playlist on my Apple that I just listened to all day. Oh, love that. OK, so you're not one of those artists that be like, I'm about to put my, yo, pass me the orcs and then you play all your music. No, I already be having an orc. So if people know I'm not going to play my music like that, then they ask me to play my music. I play it like out of the New York. Out of all the days I've been in New York, I probably play my music like a few times. Like I leave in the studio. I play because I went to the studio like three days. I play like that. Well, I just left the studio and did like, but then other than that, on the car rise, we listen to R&B. Oh, see, I'm an R&B girl. So I love that. So OK, so if somebody were to tell you to play your music while you was in the car, what's your go-to song for like, of your music? Of my music? Of your music, what's your go-to song? I'm not really going to play that shit, though, because I know some people go, I know people going to like Tate B. Stuyler, Iki Fiki. So I'm going to have to play that if they be like, so on and so out. But I'm going to play some unreleased music for real in the car. I'm going to play some unreleased music. You know what's funny? Like I know those are like the popular songs on your new project, but neither one of those are my favorites. Which one is it? Marshman is. Damn. Yeah, because if you don't want to see me winning, fuck you. Fuck you, too. Period. But those are both like great songs. But I'm just saying like that one, like it hit a little differently for me. So who would you say is like your inspiration when you're making music? Everything. Everybody. Like, you can ask them. Like, I'd just be whatever I did today. Probably go in there or go in there tomorrow or something. I try to be inspired. Like, I'm probably going to put you in there. It better not be about me being weird though. No. You want to say something nice? I'm going to say something nice. All right, but cool. So when you go to the studio, you write in advance. You make it up while you're there. Like, it depends. It depends how I'm feeling. I write sometimes. Sometimes I just go off the top pages. It depends on what mood I'm in. Like the other day I made a gospel song. Then I did a song like Jeremiah was on a hook or some shit. It gives versatile. Love to see it. OK, so we're going to get into life in Detroit a little bit because I do want to know how your life was growing up. So walk me through early stages when let's see. Let's take it back to around the time that you first started getting into music. What was life looking like for you around that time? I was in high school. I was playing basketball, and I had a job. And I was going to school. And I didn't know what I wanted to do. But I tried music because I was just like everybody else. Like, I'd be seeing people older than me doing the music. And I was working for them. So I tried it. And it kind of worked like so. OK. Now, so you said that you were playing basketball. You think that if you wasn't making music now, you would have still went that way? Or was there anything else that you would have done to them? I was good at basketball, but I was motivated. Like, my daddy died. And then I was like, I ain't really like that shit just turned into a job instead of like being fun. I'm like, you're a kid playing like that shit fun. When you get to high school, that should turn to a job. And I ain't like that. I ain't want to feel like people made me feel like if you don't go to a league, like you a fuck up. Like, you feel me? I just chose to do something else. People act like they life dependent on me going to play basketball or something. So I'm like, fuck that shit. Do you think that, like, because you said like you grew up listening to people in Detroit and stuff like that, do you think that that's also what led you into just like taking the music route? For sure. Yeah. OK. And then you also said that people were like kind of banking on you with your basketball career. Do you feel that way now? Because you're still like up. You're still doing your thing not in basketball, but in music. Do you feel like there's still people that's banking on you? I take care of a lot of people. OK. Family, friends. Family, friends. Friends of family, family of friends. Oh, everybody eat. Everybody eat. Love that. OK. Skillet for the people. Skillet for the people. OK. So we talked about Sada a little bit already. But let me know, like, how did y'all get tapped in? Because like y'all bond, it really gives like big brother, little brother. Like, I really like what y'all got going on. How did y'all? I grew up with his little brother, Quill. And then my big brother, we, he's like, that's like my big brother. That's one of Sada friends growing up. So he knew I was doing music. And he just brought me to Sada one day. And like, I really didn't want to just be like, I'm around this nigga. I'm just do music with this nigga. I had to see what type of person he was. So we just started hanging him. Then we got closer and grew closer. I started going to shows with him. He was taking me out of town and shit to his shows and shit he had to do. And then we just grew close. Like, that's bro for show. Yeah, people call you his protege of sorts. How do you feel about that? I mean, a part of me be like, eh, I ain't no nigga protege. But I technically am like shit. He showed me how to do this shit for real. Like, I go around and he took me around the world. Like, he showed me how to really do this shit. I learned how to perform from that nigga, like, all that shit. Like, a lot of my versatility, like, I get that from that nigga, like, that nigga for show. One of the greatest entertainers I've ever seen for real. Like, part of the, I've been a bro, like, you know. And so are you signed to him? I'm signed to Geffen. You're signed to Geffen. OK, we're going to get into that. So what's the, so there's no type of, like, situation between you and Sada outside of him and kind of being like a big brother material? I'm my big brother. OK, cool. So you said that you're signed to Geffen. It's like, inner scope Geffen. OK, that's T. That's one thing that I actually didn't know. So how did you get into that, that deal? I just, like, my music just had a, like, a spurt where it just started going crazy, like, around the summer or last year. And then, like, everybody just started tapping in with me. I just had a crazy ass, crazy ass run, like, from, like, July to, like, now for real, for real. But around my birthday, I got signed, like, in October. But I had, like, all the labels just calling me and shit. See, that I knew. I knew that you had interest. I didn't know that you had actually landed on one. So what was it about them that made you want to go with them as opposed to the other people that put offers on the table? I knew people around, like, I knew people in the building, like, in the Geffen building. So I just knew, like, I had more push in the building with a label. If I knew somebody in the building, it was more family oriented. And then they just had the best offer. When I was talking to my lawyer, like, they had the best offer. Like, the deal was the best one. OK. So now a lot of this is making sense, because Iki Vicky was a re-release, right? Was that because of, OK. But on the topic of Iki Vicky, one million, two weeks, shout out to you for that. That's hard. Visuals is fire. How did you come up with those? I really wanted to be Chip Skylark. Because it was like Iki Vicky, you feel me? But D&A, like, you should go, you should be Timmy Turner. So they came up with the treatment idea. I liked the video. So I'm like, because I really wanted to be chased around by girls for real, for real. It was the skill in me, just wanted to be chased around by girls for real and be Chip Skylark. I mean, there's no potential. Yeah. Next song. No. No? You want to do that in another song? You want to do, OK. I'm done with Timmy Turner. See, all right, can I just tell you, maybe it's the New York in me, because we got a lot of sample music going around. Like, I was really thinking, like, a Iki Vicky or so. So like, a sample of that would have been fire. So the fact you said no more very odd parents. So hard to clear Tim fairly odd parents sample. Nickelodeon just in case they don't want to clear none of my samples. So how do you feel about like music that is like released that's not cleared? Because a lot of people are doing that now. Like, they not under labels, though, under labor. I clear everything. That's true. Business side really like the side you really need to pay attention to the music side. Be easy. Like if you doing music, you got to know the business because that should have fucked you up. Being in a cost, like, people ain't clearing shit for free. Right. Sometimes they're not and for real, they just want that money. So are you learning the business as you're going through it or is there somebody that's like putting you on? I know you got sought out, but are there people that you turn to for like business advice and entry? For sure, not my cousin. My manager, Juan, Pudi, my lawyer. Like, I talk to everybody. My label, the president of my label, caught me every day. Like, so it just be like, my A&R talk to me. So I really got a good supporting cast. I talk to other people, other artists, learn from them. So like T Grizzly, I just like start being around him, but he helped me a lot. He showed me to be business. So I just try to take, I try to have my ears open and learning through everybody for real. And I'm glad you brought up T because I was wondering also how y'all became connected. He just tapped in one day. Like, I know, like we are from Detroit. So of course I know somebody he knows. So we just like, we just did some music one time. When I was, I really seen it when I was in London one time. And then after that, we did some music in L.A. And then we just like, I ain't got a lot of tea. When I work with tea, the energy be good. Like, I be going on vibes and energy. Like the energy was there. We made some good music. So like, we gonna come out with a little tape or something. Okay, yeah. I saw the tent in a bio. And then he did like the car freestyle and then he nominated you to do yours. And then you did yours. You set that back real fast too. It was like under an hour. For sure. I think, yeah, you did that. And it was good. So, but even with the good, not saying that this is bad, but like you did that very quick, fire in the booth, you bodied, but you said that you was nervous. I was nervous. Why was you so nervous? Because this is a camera. Like I seen Drake on that. I seen Drake on fire in the booth. Like, if, like that shit different. Like when you be like, damn, I was just watching this shit a few years back. Drake was on here. Nah, I'm on here. You be like, damn, all these cameras looking at me. Like cameras make me nervous. Oh, it's a lot of. See how I looked in this camera now, one time. That's, you, we here, cause I don't really be looking at you like that. So you was nervous. But I think that you did well with that. But I thought it was just interesting to see, like when you were like handling it on your own in front of your own camera, like you sent it back real fast. And then like on that platform, you was like, oh, I'm so nervous. So how do you get over like your nerves and how do you build your confidence in situations like that? Just do it. I try not to think about it. Okay. I try to close my eyes then when I open it, it's like I'm doing it now. So when I open my eyes, I got to keep doing it or I'm gonna be embarrassed. I'd rather be shot in embarrassed though. Like, I don't want to embarrass myself on camera. So if I'm already on camera doing something, I gotta keep doing it. So is that like a one take situation? It was like, it is what it is. No. Sometimes it'd be one take, but a lot of times I ain't got a lot like that. So it's not easy. Okay. I'd be nervous. Okay. Well, that's normal. So how do you feel about when people compare you to other artists? Because that's something that's been happening a lot lately, especially on Twitter. And I feel like you handle it very well because you respond with the opposite artist answer. I mean the opposite artist name. I don't really care, like opinion. Opinion don't pay me. So it'd be like, if I could be at somebody else's, I'd be at somebody else's. I don't gotta have like, I ain't gotta be walking around like I'm the best. I don't even care as long as I get paid for real, for real. You don't care as long as you get paid. All this shit a competition though. Like don't get me wrong. Cause I feel like that feeds into you saying that you will work with your opposite amazing. For sure. How would you feel though, if you were working with somebody who had beef with somebody that you was cool with and then they went on the song and dissed the person that you was cool with? I'm not doing that song. How do you handle that situation? Not gonna get on the song. I'll tell you, don't say that. That's disrespectful. It's disrespect when you disrespect somebody you know I'm cool with. Like I tell everybody like, like some of my homeboys cool, not cool. Like don't get along with other people that I'm cool with. So it'd be like, bro, y'all can disrespect each other but don't do that shit around me. Like say you and her had a problem. If I'm with her and you see us out, don't do nothing to her. Don't even try that. That's disrespecting me. Mm-hmm. So. And I'm glad you kind of cleared that up because that's also, that also kind of feeds into the narrative that people have when it comes to you working with Sada and T. We don't gotta get into the politics of all of that but I know that some people are like curious as to like what that situation looks like when you are close to two people who aren't really seeing out of awe in a moment. I mean Sada and T knew each other before me. That's not my business for real for real. I'm here for the business. Like Sada, my real big brother. I love that nigga. Me and T getting cool but like it ain't nothing like that. Like to where like ain't nobody died. Them niggas ain't fought. None of this shit. I really like, I'm here for the business. Like I don't be going into business thinking personally. If I could work with my ops I don't even be caring about nobody. Like ain't nobody died. I don't give a, I really don't care for real. But do you even have ops? Like you seem so unproblematic. Like I feel like if you have ops there will be ops by association. They hoppin' for show. They hoppin'? Oh. Them boys, them boys hoppin' for show but it's like I don't broadcast. But I got going down there. Yeah at all. That's why I'm like, you seem very unproblematic but that's good. Yeah, I'm unproblematic for show but like you know when you're unproblematic sometimes problems come your way because people think like you won't but you really will. And I think that that goes back to what I was saying about like in your music it's like more of like at this point if you know you know not you gotta like you don't gotta point to Peru. All right, so something else that I wanted to talk to you about was last year you said that like without weed you felt like your mind was a lot clearer and you spoke a lot about being sober. Are you still sober? Yeah. Okay. And what made you make that decision to be sober? It just, I really had got locked up but then like when I got when I stopped smoking it was just like I ain't needed no more. Like I didn't need it and I just everything I was getting done without getting high just made me feel like I'm thinking clear getting shit done. Like I know when I get high like I fuck around go to sleep have something to do and I'm knocked out like and then when I start I tried to get high once last time and shit made me so paranoid. I'm like this shit is just not for you no more. And I know Sata Baby actually spoke about his sobriety a few days ago. So shout out to him for that. Very proud of that. Do you think that it's difficult in this industry to stay sober when it's like so drugs and liquor and everything is they're just so accessible? Or do you feel like It depends on how strong your mind is. Like some people fall to peer pressure. Some people have like addictive personalities. I just happen to be done. I'm blessed. I sit in the car they smoke do all the type of shit around me. I don't fall to it because like I don't need it. I be half life. I'm genuinely happy with my life. For real, for real. Like I'm blessed. Like I came a long way. And you know, Christiane Rock the other day she was saying that she wasn't drinking before she met Blueface and when she was on his show like that's when she really started drinking. And so that's why I was wondering like is it a challenge to stay sober in this industry because now like people associate her so heavily with liquor but before she got in this industry she really wasn't drinking anything like that. So it's interesting. See how you think about that. Yeah, I think like they partying all the time. Like this industry, like you got a party all the time. That's part of it. I'd be bored in a club. Like I want to drink, want to smoke but it's just be like I'm here for a reason. I'm more so here to get paid to have fun. I ain't going to lie. Sometimes I drink like occasionally like last night I went to Starless. I had a drink. But I really a hold the same clip for three hours. For real, for real. I ain't really drunk. Not you babysitting but I understand why. So, okay. So I know we only got a little bit of time but I know your fans definitely want to know this. You got a lot of ladies in your fan base and they, the ladies love skill okay. So talk to us about your dating life. What is that looking like? You single, you. I'm working. You working. It feels so hard. Okay. I'm hard as hell. Okay, so when you not working we know that you like your ladies 21 and up. 26. 26 and up. Yeah, I don't know why I said 21. 26 and up. But is there anything else that you look for in a lady? Like when you're dating? If you know you know. See you was calling me weird. Don't be weird. That ain't weird. If you know you know what? If you know you know you either got it or you don't. Damn. Sorry y'all. I tried to pull it out of him. All right. Well somebody. You're weird. That was messy. How was that messy? Cause they want to know. Cause you tried to make it easy for them. Yeah, cause they want to know. They all down your timeline. They be tagging you. You got the ladies like, all I want for my birthday is a happy birthday from Skilla. Like. Happy birthday from Skilla. Well, there you go baby girl. But then also if you want to talk messy there was a girl who posted a screenshot of you like trying to shoot your shot or something like that. She was trying to say that you was trying to shoot. No, that was cat. I got the screenshot right here of our messages. I just. Cause it was, it was floating around in socials. Somebody just sent that to me and tried to cuss me out for real, for real. And it's really. If you get incursed out over screenshots that mean you doing more than working. So I caught you. What you mean? I ain't gay like. I ain't gay like I talk to females like. Like you think I was you think I'm posted like not talk to people like. So that's why you wasn't saying what you was interested in cause you got somebody that would be upset if they heard you. Of course. Everybody got somebody. See that's all you had to say. I don't get what you saying though. I don't get what you saying. Look at the screenshot. All right. Save it. That girl. That girl's getting a fake screenshot. Okay. So how do you feel about that though? Like is there a certain way that artists, huh? I got in trouble. Damn. My mama caught me. Wow. Do you feel like there's a certain way that artists should like go about like handling situations like that? Cause that's happening a lot now. Like where the screenshots get to fly in on the social media. I trolled her ass on Twitter. I told her to put a big ass blue cap right there. I saw. But I mean like moving forward. Like does that keep you from like shooting a shot in DMs? Do you save it? If I wanted to do it, I'm gonna do it. If I did it, I would have said I did it. Like I, I feel like a little ass girl, man. Do you mess with little girls? 26 and up y'all. I don't mess with little girls. I don't do that. Like. Okay. Okay. I don't care how pretty you is. None of that. I'm like grown ass women. I ain't. Okay. Well, there y'all go. So what can we expect next? Like I said, it's only the beginning of the year, but we still have 11 more months to go. So what can we expect from Skilla for the rest of the year? You can expect Skilla to be on talk at the time. Again, it's given part two. Fashion week. Okay. Well, okay. So then I feel okay because I felt like there was so much more that we could jump into. So we gonna save it for the next part. I fuck with you. You weren't weird as I thought you were. I don't, I really don't even understand why you would think that in the first place. You can't wear that first. Like Breanna Imani is for the people. It never gave weirdo. I keep trying to tell you that. I fuck with you too. Okay. And I fuck with you too, Skilla. Skilla, the people want to know two things. So first we're gonna do a drip check. What you got on him? Brick on us. Mike and Mary's. I had on the Louis shirt, but then I took it off. I got on the black T-shirt because this was just so Detroit of me. The black T. The clean black T. And then I'm like, I'm in New York. I'm gonna throw the mind clear. I was gonna throw on the. The big black puffer. I was gonna throw on the shiesty. But I just like, this is a girl talk show. So I don't even want to be like toothed out. You feel me? Well, I appreciate that. Because the ski mask and the glasses, I'm glad. I was wondering if you was gonna pull out the shades. I'm glad you didn't. No, I'm glad I didn't either. Because if we was both being shady. I see what you did there. That was a good one. See, if you feel like I'm shady, just wait to part two because we didn't even really get into it. But, all right, so that's the drip. So what about the ice? Let's see the ice. Because the coat is kind of like covering it. Let's see. Let's see. Uh-huh. I'm missing a couple, but this is the tip. So that's giving Ben camp. Ben camp. You tapped in. That's why I know you ain't weird. At first, I thought you was weird. If you say that one more time. But you really tapped in. I thought you was mad weird out here. It was feeling mad weird inside. Y'all want to know what's crazy. Like, when he walked in here, like, it was good vibe. I thought it was good vibe. We was having a conversation about New York. You know my chopped cheese. When you start hating on my chopped cheese, I'm like, she weird. Now I can't talk about chopped cheese because I ain't from New York. See, I never said that. Now you're putting words in my mouth. So what did you say? I said that it was a very cliche answer of you to say your favorite thing to do in New York was eat chopped cheese. So chopped cheese ain't part of your top three. Foods? Yeah. Not really. See? That's like chopped cheese for us. You ain't really tapped in. Chopped cheese for us is like, it's nothing. Like, we, yeah, we go to the store, get a chopped cheese. Like, that's not for me though. I was eating chopped cheese in middle school. But I wasn't though. And that's why it's like that to you, but not to me. And I liked it. You feel me? Well, I'm glad that you had that experience. Chopped cheese. It ain't got old yet. See, I never said it got old. I just said it's not in my top three. Like, it's like a everyday type of thing. So what's your top three? Matter of fact, before you answer that. Hold on. Wait. What's your type? Since you asked me what's my type, tell the man. They want to know. The men don't care about what my type is. What's your type? If you want to know what my type is, highlight me on the gram underscore brownie, Manny, we could talk about it there, because this is not about me. It's about skill a baby. So back to what I was saying. We did the ice. I mean, yeah, we did the drip. We did the ice. The people want to, don't look at me like that, because I see the eye twitching. I see the eye twitching. Anyway, we did the ice. The people want to know how much you dropped on the ice. How much? That's what they want to know. A lot. This one right here is like $130,000. That's pretty like, these diamond links, like $15,000 in a piece, and these was $15,000 in a piece. OK, so I wasn't initially going to ask that, but since we talking about it, we know the situation that happened previously with your chains and all of that. Is there a certain way that you move following that situation? Like, do you move differently? Hell, yeah. Yeah. Like, is it watching who you around, watching where you are? Not for real. I really move the same. I just move more dangerous. Like, I was like, in my city, like, I'm really like the cool nigga. I'm part of the cool nigga. It's like, I'm cool, but like, you feel me? You know, shit happens, like, but you know, like, shit happens, you know? So, shit, I'm just more dangerous for real, for real. I was on probation. I couldn't, like, move how I wanted to move, but now I'm on probation, so really, I move how I want to move. All right. Allegedly, allegedly. All right. Allegedly what? Allegedly. You move and how you move, you just, you staying safe. Yeah, like. You staying safe. I just don't want you saying it too much. I'm not going to say nothing. I'm the good guy. OK. All right. But I know I keep saying this, I know y'all got to go. So is there any last words that you want to leave us with until we can circle back to part two? She messy. No! You ain't weird, but you shady and messy. First of all, how am I messy when I'm interviewing you and you over here asking about my type? You're messy. No, you like me. No, I don't. I can tell. Yo, you see, it never gave that. And this is not. It's giving that because you asking too much personal shit. It's an interview. What am I supposed to ask you about? You asking me like you questions. And then you winked at me under your head. No, I didn't see y'all. I'm telling the people. Y'all probably can't even see what's going on under the head. But I promise you, it never gave that. I'm very professional, y'all. She was trying to ask me if I had a girlfriend. And I am. Because you got mad girls that be on you on the social. No, they don't. See, now you lying. Allegedly. Now don't try to take off. For sure, y'all. All right. All right, here. All right. We repping this up. But what about how you winked under that hat though? Because I never did that. See, now you lying. All right, let the people know where to find you. Find me in New York right now.
