 I'm again man. Let's go Yeah Check it check it check it. It's a unique hustle. It's your boy E ceo, man And I'm here with the lovely official Dedicated hey man hard working man got my back every time I move man my wife man the lovely Official mr. Mako, what's going on? Man save man. What's going on with you man? We got baby young in the building Let me tell you something about baby younger man baby younger man dropped out the sky to us man We in Los Angeles today man. He tried to run up here and get away from me trying to figure it all out I'm out here with him baby. We're trying to figure it all out. We had to make it happen Thank you so much for coming on the show man. So so so just to you know, we'd like to get in the back story, right? Yes, sir man Just give us a little bit of backspill about who you are man and kind of kind of like like from how you get it Got into the music. This is who you are first of all. I go by the name of baby. I'm a hip-hop artist For Mexican descent both of my parents in Mexican. I'm from the north side of Dallas, Texas Web Chapel to be exact Yeah, web chapel on top Brock bank on the bottom Del Crest grew up on Del Crest and Park Lane and Santa Monica apartments You know real certified all miles. Geez and always so with me, you know, just out here working man I've always been into singing since I was little and then You know, I wanted to be a singer. I've been saying it all the times I'm a huge Bruno Mars fan. So I was into Bruno Mars. I always wanted to be a singer But realistically growing up I knew that I didn't have the vocal range to really be a singer like Beyonce or Bruno Mars anything So one of my partners just told me like, you know, you like singing in some places singing class And I used to want to get in talents talent shows in school and all this and that I was inquired middle school So I was I was really just trying to try to sing well under my homie said for if you feel like you can't sing You should just try incorporating a rap with it. So I incorporated a rap with it like towards sophomore year towards the end of sophomore year of high school and I went to the studio First studio I ever went to was triple C and O Cliff shout out triple C man Shout out King with a Q, you know, you're rocking man I was one that was the first studio I ever went to and he was a first engineer to just tell me like damn, bro You hard, you need to keep going at it. My first song ever recorded It was called my world and just he told me to just keep going and honestly that motivated me everything motivated my for my homies to everybody Were your parents always on board with you becoming an entertainer definitely not I used to get into a lot of fights with my mom and my dad about me blowing my money Studio time videos. I used to think $200 was a lot for video And I used to go broke off my Walmart check off my pawn shop checks off of everything like And then there was times I even as I would ask my mom or I would ask my dad to help me out Just to be able to pay off to go like two hours to the studio or so like, you know It was it was to the point where I was like going broke and my mom was just like Go to school get a job like nobody in our family is a singer Like you're never gonna be a singer like and it wasn't to downplay me. I think she was just trying to be realistic Right, I don't think she was trying to be mean or anything I think she just didn't really see the vision because at the end of the day You got to pay your bills right now and being a musician. It takes time to build up It doesn't have you got to have that money you got to spend that money But in order for you to have that money to spend you got to work, right? Yeah, definitely And yeah, it was a lot of bumping heads and eventually like once I took my trip to Miami My manager third came and met my dad and stuff ended up convincing them So like just being cool with me going to Miami because I'm real respectful of my parents That's like I'm God fearing and I'm parent fearing family. I'm feeling nothing else But are you the last child or the only boy? I'm the I'm the first child You're the first child. I'm the first child even out of all my cousins and I'm the oldest I'm about to turn 20 this Sunday big Leo season. You know how he rockin game shit Yeah, I'm the oldest even out of all my cousins all my siblings. I got a point of proof even though I Was I feel like I I could have been a bad role model growing up But I do better I do better now and I try to keep them in line Do any did any of them try to follow in your footsteps of being in the music industry? No, not as far as music. I don't think so right now not any of my direct family like I Got a little pilot trying to make music right now. I'm gonna support them, but like, you know, like Brody just can't jump on board just cuz bro rapping like, you know, you got to work for it You got to work for it whether you my family whether you my friend You got to work for it because this wasn't given to me so I can't just up and write and Like let myself give something to someone who didn't work for it. You know, that's true. That's true So where do you see yourself in the next two years or music is concerned? In the next two years, I see myself being the biggest thing not even out of texas in the us I want to I'm gonna be a superstar and I'm telling I'm telling this to cameras now I'm telling this to eat right now. I'm telling this to you right now We finna go crazy within the next two years because Really, I've only been rapping for two years and the first year was stagnant That's like what you would expect a regular like Person just trying to come up Will have like no results no plays no nothing And then when I started putting money behind myself that first year is when stuff pop like the talent started like Getting exposure people just wanted recognition. Yeah, like recognition and then From then on I just It's like I said, that's motivation like At the end of the day I do this for me But for the most part I do this for my family and I love doing this shit I love doing it for my fans I love making music because it's an escape from the real world I know what you said like in the next two years You see yourself blowing you just want to be worldwide But then at the same time two years is right around the corner. It's really not that far So you really also need to have those many goals and okay in order for me to be worldwide in the next two years What do you think that it would take for you to be that big? Just keep doing what I'm doing honestly I think I'm in I'm in the right steps right now as far as politicking and being in the streets Talking to everybody I talked to I talked to a lot of a lot of big artists right now A lot of big artists have interest in signing me a lot of big labels still have interest in signing me I think I'm just gonna keep playing it cool and keep playing it smart and just link up where I need to link up and just Do what I need to do and I'ma trust the process I don't think there's too many pinpoints because if there was a map for this I feel like everybody would be would be a superstar I feel like we definitely just got to keep working and just you know get to it You said your mom wasn't on board or your parents weren't on board with you in the beginning because they were One of you just get a job Right now you've been doing it for two years. Have they gotten on board yet? Yeah, they fully support me They begin on my eyes these days because I don't be going to studio as much as they want me to Or shooting as many videos as they want me to but they fully see the vision now for the most part and they want They want me to Even give more than what I'm already given to this. So that's awesome. That's even more motivation. I got a full bag behind them Just the results I feel like my dad used to come a lot to me. He's very proud of me My dad used to come a lot to me about how people would go up to him in the street because we look like I'm a I'm like an identical twin and they would ask him if he knew baby young and you know My dad will never Deny his son or anything So he would always just feel proud like damn like they talked to me about my son My son's famous and it's not like and you know, he doesn't see me as famous and none of that But he sees that I got stuff going for myself And he just wants me to never let that go because I've never really just been a nonafile worker. I don't like y'all Why the name baby young? I was with my partner me I'm just a young and and then he just told me put baby in front of it because anybody with baby will blow up And they name so oh really For the most part I'd say so for the most part. There's a lot of babies in the industry I'd say so on god So let me ask you this man because when you first started out, I believe I Going down that rabbit hole. I seen that you and uh, shun cotton had did some work together, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've done so how did how did that how do y'all have a relationship or Uh, not currently not currently we got into it over some personal stuff Like it was just it was just people that I had around that I shouldn't have had around no more threw me under the bus and just You know it messed up my relationship so far as long as with people and stuff and you know It well, we're we're built. We'll go back up. Have you ever talked? Have you talked to him since this take took place? No, I hit him up. I hit him up, but he didn't answer but that Yeah, that's you gotta keep hitting him up and he really don't we gotta talk I'm gonna tell you I love me. I love it man. He definitely dope dude, but he been on boss talk and uh And he's uh, yeah, he's real sensitive when it comes down to certain things if something crowds him the wrong way Yeah, yeah, definitely. He keep a chip on his shoulder body. So you gotta you gotta keep loving him through it, bro You know I'm saying no matter what that's bro. No matter what I'm all I'll always be grateful to say cheese I'll always be grateful to Sean cotton. They definitely put me on a platform and at my bigger level Say cheese is the move man. Say cheese is the move You don't even know though a fisherman's Jamaica how he sound he don't sound nothing like he looked when he's seen I promise you and you you you say you can sing too, right? Yeah, I'd say so he can he can go but he don't sound like he looked It's crazy So if I actually put you on the spot and actually sing something for me, would you I want to say for you because I get in trouble. I get to show my girl, but I'll sing I'll sing for the podcast Go ahead. Hold on. Let me see it. I'll just drop a couple of lines Um, let's see with that Let's see. Let's see. Let's see. Well, dang you put me on the spot. I can't think of what to sing right now It could be something for Same bad, but it feels just a little bit bigger now Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same When my friends talk about you all it does is just tear me down Because my heart breaks a little when I eat your name Hey, man, hey, man No, no, he don't sound like he's He's even like that first. What was that song the first one I had the one that went crazy Uh soldier. Yeah, my first song. Yeah, soldier. That's my man. That that's my rock people tell you Who they remember who they say you remind them of like the red the shine or somebody Rock wave, rock wave, man. I was on solid rock wave. I went on solid rock. He can sing like that too He just he did something different right then. I went on solid. He can rock out You're and I like the way his voice feels man. That's hard. I appreciate that. No, we know we know man You always you can't get away. That's hard. Yeah, so you talking about you talk about your girl But you know that whenever you're in this business industry You're gonna have a lot of girls coming in your DM and a lot of girls gonna be hitting on you So how do you intend to deal with all of that? Um, or have you and your girl sat down and talked about that? Hmm Yeah, we sit down and talk about it. We're we're working on everything because I'm not perfect myself either, you know I'm I'm young. I'm still 19 20. I get jealous. I get jealous So I can't I can't I can't just tell somebody not to act a certain way If I act a certain if I got the same Characteristics like I gotta I gotta I gotta grow myself before I feel like I got I can't ask anybody to grow Yeah, I feel like that that's the truth, but I mean, we've talked about it. We've talked about it. Definitely It's definitely a conversation because it's that's somebody I want to be with Wow, awesome. No, man. So, um, when you when you think about, uh The music and and where it puts you man How does it doesn't give you an escape when you when you it does it does it makes me feel better when I feel bad it makes me It brings out another side of me because even Even though I left that environment that I was in like I got a lot of memories. I got a lot of A lot of experience. I got a lot of like a lot of Like just a lot of things to talk about and it's real because I'm really I'm really from the trenches, man. And that's that's the crazy part Especially even from Dallas, you know, you know, webchapel is all that. Oh man. Y'all got y'all got y'all got a villa down there I want the idea that a villa the shoe store. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah Uh, uh, it's a detail on now. It was up there. It was up there about in front of cc's. I don't really talk about Yeah, yeah, yeah, my girl that used to work she used to work at our store. Yacinia. That's where she used to work at I remember the villa. Yeah. So so let me ask you this. So are you are you uh, are you like, um, Are you are you are you enjoying la? I mean do you think that you're getting the just out of la? Are you moved out here to change it up a little bit? I feel like I am I'm taking over the game little by little. Like I said, it's little politic moves I'm just linking in with the hardest with the heavy hitters out here from oh geez you to drake all the ruler to Like whoever you name it from ceo's from jimmy omelette to uh Steve LaBelle to anybody you name you name you drive baby young and name even out in la now they know who he is That's that that's that's all I wanted to come out here and do is just build my groundwork the way I did it back in Dallas you have run into the the row out here, you know, he'd be out here the row the row uh, the go Yeah, uh, I don't we haven't even like talk. I know who he is. I've seen him on say cheese and stuff But yeah, I didn't know he was out here a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, what about let me ask you this So top three artists of all time did or a lot Top three artists that are alive. I'm a super fan number one wife and luci wife and luci. Uh, that's the first Who would I say that's hard a little baby? I'm a super baby. Yeah, that's the one that everybody loves Young boy, bro. Young boy. Man. That's a dope top three. You say man. Your number one was Luci luci. You have yfn luci. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and and little baby and young young boy No, no specific order. No specific order. They're all super hard But do you have young boy young boy coming out of jail or is he gonna be in there for a while? No, I feel like they're gonna let him loose. They're gonna let him free. I don't think it's I wanted to come home because he's just the influence to everybody like That's that's top, bro Like Influence influence. He just needed he needed to come home. You heard the song he dropped from jail today That was hard. How you drop the song that hard from jail? It don't make sense. Yeah, he ain't playing no games. Anyway, he's been working. He'll work a holly He'd be working people don't know that part of it. You know what I'm saying So what what uh, how can uh, so so so if you was if you could go back and And change anything that happened with you when you was coming up into this game If you go back and talk to the 15 year old you what would you tell him about what he's about to face? Keep going And don't give up because 15 year old me was a very very Giving up tight for tom. So Just keep going if I if I'm To anybody even the 15 year old me whatever you do, just keep going. Definitely. It ain't nothing else to life But keep going. Yeah, do you do you think that When you um, do you have any siblings? I do I have he said it earlier when I was up I have three brothers and a sister. Okay. Yeah, I didn't hear that part because I was up messing around But yeah, man, that's dope, man. So so they look up to you They do I love my little brother. My youngest is six My little his brother is six years old. He looks up to me crazy. He cuts his hair like me and everything We we look we look alike And that's like a heavy burden on me. It makes me emotional because that's my you know, that's my rock Yeah, yeah, yeah somebody so close to me look up to me. I got something to prove, you know So when you came out here, you just jumped up and jumped out here left your family in Dallas and it was hard It was hard by yourself. Yeah, I did come by myself. It was hard I used to be fighting my mom on the phone a lot my mom missed me a lot at the start So she'll be crying on the phone to me to come home all this and that But when you got to go you got to go now you got to jump right? You got to go out here and see what it's worth test the water So what studio did you enter next sense? How was the process changing over to a studio out here versus when you was working in Dallas? Not difficult. I already had people out here from like uh draw fee and perp like narco wave people Uh I got a lot of studios out here now But it wasn't it wasn't too difficult transition and I already had connects out here I've been out here like once or twice before I moved But why la over atlanta? There's more Mexican people here honestly. There's more of hispanic fan base here and I feel like atlanta will probably be the next move because everybody in atlanta fuck with me from the four pf camp to To the ysl camp like i'm like it's green. I've got a cap g everything I've been a cap g's house in atlanta everything so i'm atlanta school too But I just feel like there's more mexicans out here. There will be more support out here As far as what my hip hop goes to turn global The west coast needs it west coast needs a bigger market so so you you would say that your hip hop you want to cater to more hispanics No, not really it's it's just anybody that grew up in the struggle anybody anybody that's been through anything because Like my music is real I'd say my music is very real And I have conversations with my manager and I have conversations with other people and my my music is They tell me it tends to appeal to an older audience That's why that's why I feel like a lot of young cats and stuff still need to get on board and shit But it's gonna it's all gonna happen. I I trust I trust and I pray a lot so Have you ever done a song where you're rapping in spanish? Yes I write that people say I rap harder in spanish than I rap in english, but it takes me I gotta write my shit in spanish Because I'm I'm fluent I speak spanish, but I can't freestyle spanish It's hard for me to even freestyle in english Writer punch in or something. Yeah, I had to go back to it. But like I heard you say you went on tour with rya way rya way and Say cheese shun cotton. They they parted ways as well, correct? Yeah What was this before or you went out with him or was this during the time that happened? I think the first when I was on told with him was the when the first one happened because they've been Rod and Sean's been like They've been bumping heads like a couple of times already So I think the first time that it happened we were on tour, but I didn't ever I never met rod I'll be honest. I never met rod rod Rod is a very introvert person Plus it was like when coronavirus was about to happen So we only got like a week into the tour and it got shut down in baltimore Really? Yeah, we had to come back home at baltimore. Wow. That's crazy, man I can tell you man is is is being a young man a young bull out here in la man having all opportunity and having all those people that Didn't watch you grow and and so so so you started this like when you was about 17 16 17 Like like 16. I was about to turn 17 Yeah, and and you you basically uh, you changed the game man. Like I said when I first listened to you It wasn't what you just sung.

I'll be living something. Yeah, that shit is hard I don't listen to my music like that. I listen to my own release shit a lot more just to like get ideas off My wife say y'all The official miss Jamaica say when y'all first make new songs y'all act like y'all gravitate to that a little bit more It's your best song ever.

I don't think shit will ever be the same honestly I think sometimes, you know time changes things, man Let's let's let's just hope and pray. Yeah Yeah, time changes things.
