Okay, but you wasn't really getting into music, but Keith got you into music. So, um, so walk us through signing day, like when you locked in with YSL, like what was that like? Shit, it was like, God damn. It wasn't really, it wasn't really none. I was just like, bro, this supposed to have been happening. Because he was already around, though. Yeah. Yeah. So, so what was signing day like? So, y'all was in the studio, y'all did a little big, little thing, dinner club, like. Yeah, I went home, told my little girl, my little boy, like, hey, my dad made it. We gone on. Okay, and what they was saying? Because they, I'm sure they know who that is. Yeah, no, they, my little kids, they young, they little. Okay. But they just, daddy, you signed? I don't know. Okay. And so like how long from when you first started music to signing day, like how long was your music? A year, two years before you got signed? Or not even that long? I think it was like 2019. Okay. When I first did it, it was like, yeah, about two, two years. Two years? So he was on the ground for two years, then you got signed? All right, so they made you work a little bit, even though you knew them? Yeah. That's good, y'all respect that. I was still to tell them, like, cause I'm at the condo with them. We were living together. I'm like, hey man, tell them, I'm trying to get, I'm ready to get signed, man. He like, I'm finna talk to him. So like some months went by, I come back and I'm like, hey bro, I need to sign. What's going on? What's going on? I went tripping about the money cause I'm, I was shooting dice. And out of tension where we was, everybody wanted to come where we at. So it's why I ain't had it really. Yeah, I wasn't doing too much. But when it happened, I'm like, appreciate it, boy. So how do you feel about it mean that you worked for it and it wasn't just like a handout? Do you like respect it more? No, I respect it. He always tell me like, bro, just cause I got it, but I ain't finna hand the shit to you. I had to work for this shit. You know, it took more than 10 years. He like, I'm thinking it's like Canada or Sweden, like, hey bro, he finna just get it now. I worked for it. Okay. And so you, so you respect the way that that went down. And so when you found out the news that they got, had got locked up, like where was you, how'd you find out? You find out on the internet, but you probably didn't know already. They got it on the internet? Like when they got locked up, not like how it happened, just like, yo, they got arrested. I'm saying they got it on the internet? Like just like blogs. Like, not like, not like how it went down, like blogs or posts, like this artist just got arrested. Like you know how blogs be? Nah, I ain't even see it on the what blog it was all about. Oh my God. I'm talking about thug and gun. I know what I'm saying. I ain't, I don't, I don't be seeing all that. It's probably like the shade room and shit. Like regular blogs. Yeah. I ain't, I don't be seeing them. Okay. So you don't follow blogs? No. You don't like gossip and shit like that? I don't like all that. Okay. You just like the situation you trying to explain to me. I'm like, I got it on the internet? Yeah, it definitely hit the blogs and people was definitely like I'm rooting for them and stuff like that. And I know that they're doing like the whole protect black art thing. Trying to like, you know, because they're trying to like add lyrics into cases now. What are your thoughts on that? They don't need to do that, man. They don't need to do that. It really ain't, man, you know, it's like if you look at the history back then where you got like rock stars. They got, I heard the rock stars say like some shit like kill a judge and all this. And I was like, but he wouldn't get charged for it. Don't bring it up. Bought him by saying it. But they didn't be saying so much everything. Just when we do it, it's a problem. They do it. Yeah, that's definitely, that's definitely a fact. So like when, what song was it that got everybody bubbling that got the whole team excited? Like what was that one record that really hit it to the park? I got an unreleased song. It called Hermes. Okay. I was in the studio. You know, like I always been like when a lot of people around, I be keeping my shit at myself. I'm like for everybody to hear. But this day, I'm running in the cover slime. He like, hey man, I'm playing it. Just let him here because he gonna give me that. Like, hey man, do this over. This nigga like, hey man, send me this to my phone. Let me say that. They give me more confidence. Like, oh, I need to fucking with it. We get in the studio. You got gunner, savage. You got got them. It's wheezy. There's a lot of people in the room. He played my song. Everybody like vibing to it. I'm like, say that. Okay. For everybody to circle with it. So when did the, I guess, attention start picking up? Like because, well you said everybody already knew you. So like when the music started came about and you promoted music, like did anything change or was it the same vibe or like was fans getting like crazy? Yeah, that was crazy. And a lot of women was at me. They want me. Then on it. I mean, okay. So how do you deal with that? Because I know it's the club life in Atlanta. So girls be in a club and then you have girls do it. I understand. So like how is the dating life, I guess, in Atlanta? Well, see I don't date. You don't date? So you don't go on dates? No, I don't do none of that. Oh my God. Okay. What we at? You don't, we don't get down like that. Okay. So a date might be the club? Maybe, if that? Well, they don't even go to the date with women. Okay. Whenever you just see them, you just see them. Okay. Yeah. Okay. That's different. Y'all date up? Y'all be dating? Y'all like go on dates? I mean, you. We got like nice restaurants like Brooklyn Child Power, stuff like that. Yeah, we can't, we can't do that in there. Okay. But like, yeah, but like, you can get private rooms out here though. So like, we can have our own room and it could be you and all your gang at the dinner. So like, we got it in Atlanta. Yeah, but you're saying y'all even do that? No, we ain't got time. Okay. So much going on. You can't. Okay. Can't do that. Tasting the bag all the time. Okay. So like, so I know we have family. So like, do you play your music for your family? Do you try to make songs that your kids could listen to or you want to work on that or? No, I make music for like. Or ages? Yeah, like, I don't just, you know, like up here, I see y'all got like bleh, bleh, bleh, bleh. I don't, I've been making all type of genres of music. Yeah. I don't just take the one, one genre. Like hip hop. You do, yeah. I go all over the place. I like my lot of beats. I like the harmonize on songs. Mm hmm. And started just bleh, bleh, bleh. We don't all do that out here. Everybody, everybody getting sturdy. They doing the dance. Yeah. It's trendy out here. I mean, like, it's like when Soja Boy made his dance, like dancing is just not, we don't do that. Y'all don't, y'all don't dance at all. Bro, nigga don't dance. This like generation that coming in, nobody to dance. But I think it's because Tiktok too. I think Tiktok got mad people dancing. Yeah. You going to get on Tiktok? Yeah, but I ain't got that many followers. But you go, if you go down there and dance, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, okay, we're gonna have some, I teach you how to get sturdy and look. But, okay. So from when it started two years ago, what growth have you seen in your music, like from then to now? She going up, you had in my voice though, like when I be rapping, back then it was like, it was like, you can hear it like, I just got it. He ain't dead yet. But now you can hear like, oh, he's standing on bed. You can hear my words clear, I ain't shy, I ain't big enough and all of those, I ain't got no, you can hear it on the music though, when you can tell, go back then it was like all my old music, shit trash, I hate it, I hate it, because it ain't this voice that I got to this day, it was like I was younger than me, and I was just rapping just to be rapper, cause I see you can make dollars off of it, songs ain't got no meanings, I'm just rapping. Okay, so what was that one song that you feel like teams everything? Cause I like this song on the slime language too. Which one? Peeping out the window? Yeah the one you want, yes, and then it's another song you dropped, it was a feature, this guy that started a pee. I forget his name, but yeah that's like your most dream song on Spotify. Peeping out the window? Yes, so like when did you feel like you got your voice though? Like you got that music? Yeah I hadn't got it before that though. I know those are the ones that I like, but I'm just saying like when do you feel like you got your voice, because you're saying your old music is trash, so if somebody was tuning right now what song would you tell them like nah this was when I got better. The songs he's when I got better the songs that the first song that I knew like boy it's better. The song ain't out though, but I'd say like separation if you hear separation, you'll hear me. Okay, okay, but even in 2019 you had dropped two projects though, you was going crazy with the projects underrated, underrated too, but you didn't drop a project since. A new project coming on the way? Yeah I got a project called Love Me and Don't. Okay, and what's the meaning behind that project since you got me in it? You gonna love me? You gonna love me? You can love me or if you hear what I got to say and you don't like it, you ain't got to know what it is. Okay. Love me or don't. Straight to the point? I know who love me though. Okay. But if you don't love me then you don't love me. Okay. All right so straight to the point. Yeah. Okay, you feel like you have toxic traits because you're very much straight to the point. Nah, ain't nothing about meat types. Okay. All right, so we're gonna play a game. Red flags or green flags? I'm gonna say something you tell me. Red flag or green flag?

Green flag. What? So you're gonna see what that's gonna be. And that's funny. Some people don't be fucking with the only fan shit though. I don't but it's when I see girls that they got fans. They rather some type of business. Yeah, if I see that you got a only fan, you don't what I'm on. Oh, okay. Okay. I give it to them. Got it. Okay, so okay, y'all go out and she posts.
