Yeah I was in with the gimmicks, I was in with the troll And I feel like my talent speaks for itself Alright and what do you think makes you stand out From like other artists? What makes me stand out I just feel like I have a unique sound You know what I'm saying I don't want to be like nobody Like I don't want to sound like nobody I want to be me like for real Everybody got going on the school But I like what I got going on I love who I am as a person Okay I feel like this project had a little bit of Like everything in a sort of sense But like you said you was being You know vulnerable and stuff like that So what makes You like What makes you know you want to wrap about A certain situation That's a good question When I listen to Beats I feet catch a vibe The first five seconds like where this is going to go You know what I'm saying I don't write my music I punch in So whatever comes to mind That feeling we keep in that vibe And just from there the rest is history So most of these songs Is just shit I was going through in the moment This project I made it when I was in the dark out space Like I don't know if you caught that vibe So most of it is like Me I'm talking about break up Me talking about Everybody's a dub My own thing me talking about You know what I'm saying like just the time That I was going through was what that project spoke about Okay so it made you Well did you have to cut it down Because you got 11 songs did you want less Or did you want more Did you want less songs or you wanted more songs Or did you chop it down I'm going to be 100% honest with you I was trying to go more Because you said you could record the most songs in a day So I'm sure you had a lot of songs Had to choose from That song was annoying as hell Because I'm mad bias Every time I make new music I always feel like the new one Is way better than the last one Because like that's just how I am And then I had a There's a song in that project that's 5 years old Little do people know but Little do people know but That's how just I had a game I am You know what I'm saying like I still had Today's sound a long time ago Yeah that's not a bad thing though Some people's songs blow up years later But the thing about me as an artist I listen to my music all the time So when I listen to it so much So much I don't want to hit it No more I get tired of it Somebody else is so brand new They're like yo this is fire I'm getting over that shit That's why it's bad having a lot of unrelease In the tuck It's hard to decide what to drop Exactly it's hard to decide what you drop You're not feeling that song though But you know that might be the one So I feel like you kind of answered this question But in speaking out You said I'm too real for this industry Have you feel like you had Some like that industry situation Yeah Word? Yeah So what was one situation that I guess you learned Or one lesson you learned from the industry Itself Um As fucked up as it sounds like You can't say how you feel With certain people Because They're going to take it so offensive You're basically blocking a bridge You're burning that bridge You're basically You're basically like In a sense You could black boy yourself Saying how you really feel about people And I'm the type of person that I never heard my tongue To be honest with you I don't bottle up emotions I've never been that type of nigga I always say how I feel You gotta learn how to like sit back And just play for what it is Okay and so you feel like you don't Want to do that or you I don't but it's like I have to Okay so what advice I guess You wouldn't give someone that's coming up In industry I guess I guess holding down some emotions Or trying to figure out how I wouldn't even give them that advice I would just tell them Be yourself at all times Literally Like don't fake This phone for nobody It's not going to work So you had a couple of features on your project I'm not familiar with these people But what made you select these people To be on your project? These are the people that I started making music with So I always kept the tradition of every project I make This is my second project I did an EP before and this is my first like real project So Old Smith is my brother That's the person I made Burnseve with I don't know if you're familiar with Burnseve That's a group that I made Yeah it's from the Bronx So we brought two sides of the Bronx together And we was like we're going to take over this whole industry And Chevy Langs is another brother That I brought to the picture With Burnseve We made it three people He's one of the bros that always been around He just started making music bros nice Traditionally I always kept my bros around As far as music Do you care to like outreach to other people Or do other people have other people been checking in with you I'm sorry Do you agree with me? Yeah like have artists reaching out to collab But I'm just so selective Selective based on what Based on their energy It's not even on time It's just like do you take music serious Like I got if I'm a stamp If I'm up in my name or something I'm not just going to do a song with somebody that just want to bullshit And just be like oh he's doing shit Let me just work with him you know what I'm saying It's not going to work like that Okay and do you hold your friends to the same standard I'm on top of it Just because somebody is paying you $400 for a verse Don't mean you got to take it you know what I'm saying That's a dub So is there any artist out there that you want to collab with In the city In the city mainstream whoever I don't look forward to like If it comes it comes like Say a couple names that you like People I would work with Mainstream Mainstream I work with Boogie I work with Boogie Who else Who do you be listening to besides yourself Don't do that Who I be listening to You know what I'm saying whoever I don't listen to too much music I listen to music but I don't listen to too much Like I don't be searching on my phone like whatever Yeah I swear I'm so weird like that Like you know what it is I don't try to get inspired by other people's Sounds and that happens often little do you know No I see that happening So you kind of like Just kind of got to feel A vibe To create Yeah and know Because you can make something from nothing Yeah but I'm saying so you got to be in a mood basically To record Type I don't want to overdo it I don't want to force it you know what I'm saying Okay And what I guess Your project For the real So what I guess what place or what space would you want people To hear this project And what should be the first song that they listen to Or should they go on order They should go on order I want them to feel it from the top I want them to feel the whole vibe But do you have a favorite Yeah yeah The only one I And do you have a song for like a slept on Like that you put your time in For like people ain't showing enough love Yeah Yeah because that song I feel like It's so good And like I don't know for some reason it's not Everybody else is like favorite the way I feel about it Okay Because I really like that song like a lot a lot So for people to be like yeah that song is good But I like this one I'm like oh shit Okay so is that conflicting When picking out what songs to drop Yeah You know what's my thing too Like I don't put out music for people Like I always made music on something Like I like this song so if y'all like it Thank y'all that y'all like it but I put out music That I want to hear you know what I'm saying Exactly Alright so what's your plans for the rest of the year For the rest of the year I'm just trying to Build enough of a big enough catalog To raise that stock and we're gonna get right And shake the industry up respectfully speaking Okay and what's the label called Burnsev Burnsev And so it's you And how many other artists It's me and two artists You on a project Yeah Chevy Langston Alright cool so tell people where to find you How could they tune in You can find me on all DSPs Official Drama On Instagram you can find me at Official Drama YouTube Official Drama TikTok Official Drama BVL
