 What they gonna do with me now? I'm still a twerk of the town Holding the sisters, I'm hooking them down Reaching the smiles and the frowns Gang hop out, then we clarin' the cr- So like real boss, like I just feel like, you know what I'm sayin'? Alright, so hey guys, so we got a new episode of Talkin' Town Today we have a special guest Najé Chill Yeah, yeah, yeah So for the people that don't know, let's film the guys and people about your catalog We work with Sony Orchard Yeah, yeah Cigar talk Yeah, I'm the VP of Urban at Sony Orchard Sony's independent distribution I started this YouTube series called Cigar Talk Bunch of different guests, rap Athletes, fuckin' Actors, everything Just anybody movin' culture And then just, you know, just hustlin' Just all around hustlin' in this music game All around hustlin' So, um, so was you working at Sony When you started Cigar Talk or it came after? Nah, I actually, um, I started Cigar Talk first The reason I actually even started it was This was 2017, so I started it in like May 2017 Something like that And at the time I wanted to get in the record label Like that was my goal, I was like, yo I just know if I get in the record label Like I can make shit shake And I was puttin' out mad resumes Like for like two years straight I was sendin' resumes for every fuckin' job Like the low from the low to the highs Like everything, I was cryin' for everything And it never worked, none of that shit worked Like nobody was calling me back, nothin' So I was like, damn, you know what? This was like when podcast first like started And I was just like, yo You know, if I create something to where like These labels could see You know, I'm from New York, I'm from Queens So I've been outside for a little minute I knew people, I was like, damn If these labels could see like I know people I can make shit shake Like I can make culture shake Somebody gon' give me a call And so I started this show, it's a God talk And I was like, you know I'ma do that until they recognize me And it worked And it's a God talk You said I was like 50 cent Yeah The viral one I said we're Nikki Oh, you did Queen Radio too? Yeah, the Queen Radio Um, the Qwanda Ronda one went crazy too Yeah And I think recently they like some Drill artists like 2x6 Yeah, facts, facts I definitely got a show love to the town You know what I'm sayin' I got a show love to the town Um, so you know Gettin' a bunch of the drill guys I had Suno on recently Mm-hmm 2x6, I did 2x2 Gs when it was early Yeah, like Chef G Facts So like, do you feel like They're like lettin' the drill I don't want to say let them in a little bit more But you know, just shut them more like Or to them Or they lookin' Or they not repantin' What do you think on the industry side Lookin' out It's kind of a weird thing with the drill Yeah, it's in a weird space Just because One is labels and the mentality of any business Is just profitability, right? Like people just care about money The end of the day, who gonna make the money? It don't matter what you sayin' It don't matter what None of this shit If people fuck with it It's gonna make us money That's what people are on But I think with the drill thing It's a little difficult because The extent of drill is not just music This real life Like anybody that's really succeeding in drill You gotta be drillin' You gotta be doin' this type of shit That you talkin' about But you know When you doin' street shit Street shit and business don't Mix well You know what I mean? So It's in a weird space, I think, drill So do you think it's possible to be a drill artist And not do all the street shit? Or you think like We get tested so often It just ends up happening anyway I don't I think it's impossible I think the energy that That you give off Is the energy that's gonna come back to you in a way So You know what I mean? If you talkin' Greasy street shit Shoot em up, bang, bang Somebody gonna wanna test you And see if that's real And it's wack though Cause you know It's a gift and a curse Cause I I like drill, right? Like I listen to it I fuck with it I like it But at the same time People dying, right? Like people really You know, real shit is happening behind this People getting locked up And not to say like People wasn't getting locked up before drill existed You know what I mean? But this makes it a little It's like being amplified And then trying to find things And How you feel about the whole rap lyrics Being used in court now I don't like that, man Me neither I don't like that shit How's that freedom of speech? You know what I'm sayin'? Cause I feel like They don't do that to no other genre Like I ain't never heard And If you actually listen to some rock shit They be sayin' Wow shit too, right? But it just feel like it's More of an indictment on hip hop culture More so than Than anything else so And I just don't get down with like You know A judge or a prosecutor Y'all don't listen to rap You don't know what's real Versus what's A metaphor Versus what a nigga just saying You know, how you know You don't listen to this shit You're not part of this culture So I can't get down with that I, you know I feel like That's freedom of speech But at the same time When I say that Be clear If you in the streets Are you active? You gotta pay for that If niggas come for you That's You know, you know the rules So I'm not sayin' It should be like You know what I mean? But I just feel like, you know It shouldn't just be using Only rap lyrics You gotta have like real Evidence to me Yeah, I feel that way too And like It's just Drivers in a scarce place right now People say like It's gonna end soon People say like Now's the time If you ain't on that Or if A lot of people feel like They miss they mark too Like what's your thoughts on that? I think it's gonna come to an end In the next few years To be honest And I say that because Like I love this shit, right? Like be clear I love it But when I say that is You gotta understand is From the standpoint of like One is New York City is different Than any other city We're the most police Fucking state In this country Right? Like when we talk about Police and people actually Being there You can't One is most of these kids Is not able to do shows Because the mayor And everything is stopping Y'all from doing shows So it's like How can a genre grow If you can't perform Right? Like your fans can't even come To see you Right And then too All the poppin' artists Like I said When you're reaching a certain level And you're doing a drill shit You see what happened to pop Chef G in jail Busy banks in jail Like it's This real life shit That's coming behind it So it's like K-Flock in jail Right? So it's like The people that come And emerge And you dope And you start winning It's a catch 22 Because the fans like They want to know You're really doing shit To be like Alright We fuck with you Because we know this nigga on it But if you on it You know The law gonna come with that So that's why I just think It's an unsustainable model Not necessarily the music specifically But like everything's surrounding it Just gonna make it tough to like Make the genre kind of grow I feel like But people say like In Chicago I guess they got away with it In a sense Maybe because it wasn't so Policed as New York is Yeah But in the same token A lot of artists come to New York Get linked up with all these drill kids And then just like Just kind of be off it After a while And it's Crazy I feel like If they have the chance To maybe go elsewhere Maybe something could happen Maybe Like it's a wave But like you said I just think of Chicago Like even O'Block It was like Police was scared to go over there It wasn't even going over there But here They be all in every projects The nigga's gonna They're gonna get you It's too many police here To get away with that type of shit Yeah, they're definitely in everything Which is Yeah They're definitely in everything But um So do you have like Who's on your playlist? We listen to right now A lot of Kodak I listen to Kodak Where's my The Kodak and King Cole's I was a lot 23 Everyone That's my shit I'm fucking Kodak heavy So me and my friend I was talking And she said that She feel like Kodak Is now at like Legendary status What you think? Facts That kid We took him out like Modern rap Like the new wave I feel like he done Did everything Like he He got To me He got Her classic albums He got hits He's talking real shit Like it's not just street shit Like he know how to put his Bars together I think Kodak is the full package For the new wave He one of my favorite like New artists for it Well I'm gonna say he not He not like new But like younger artists I would say I was thinking like I wouldn't hear Kodak On a pop record I feel like he did His thing with King Cole's Feel me? But I wouldn't hear him Like a Ed Sheeran Do a leap But like one of those like People that's like Gonna make it like That's hard I mean Shit he was on the Kendrick Lamar album Right you got the mode You got Kendrick The conscious nigga Reaching out to Kodak Like that was crazy I feel like Kodak is Is like a brand now I feel like he kind of Like he done built himself up So crazy like And then he just Marking himself really good too And I feel like it'd be bi I actually am on purpose At the same time I agree with that Cause like let's think about it Let's keep it a stack Super Gremlin not a record That's like People would think is a hit record That's what I'm saying That's like he just put that out And it just People gravitated to it But that wasn't like a record That's like If you just hear this in the studio You're going to be like, yo this is a hit That's not that type of record But Kodak just got it I fuck the yak a lot So being I guess A&R in the urban department Right do you find it like You have to like kind of Teach the artist kind of How to make these long Lasting records Or you feel like What's your thoughts? It's a little bit of both You know what I'm saying I think I try to With the artist like I signed you for a reason So I want you to do what you do It ain't about like me telling you Like this ain't the 90s Where it's like yo get in the studio And do this and do that Like this ain't that You know what I'm saying But in the same time I think that There's certain insight That I could give in terms of like Understanding What a hit record is And how hit records are made And what you could do to just like tweak things So for me and all the artists that I really You know I signed or I deal with or I work with It's really like You know I kind of let them create And then I just give like pointers Like yo what you think about this Like maybe you try this Or say it like this But I really let my artists do them And that's the real reason I I signed anybody just because I believe in What you're doing Alright that's cool So We're gonna play a game Called This or That And it's kind of like Just like would you rather do this Or would you rather do that Are you feeling this Or are you feeling that So What's like What's more of your vibe I guess The music executive Or the cigar talk host Damn that's all That ain't gonna lie That's a fast call Like on a day to day You feel like you do both every day I literally do both every day You know what I mean I guess If I had to pick I would probably say the music executive thing But I just think we in a space today We're like Ain't no rules Yeah you can do what the fuck you want to do Like It could be a president next one Yo Donald Trump was the president Just think it was a reality show nigga Like this You could do whatever you want to do today So To me I'm like I like both To be honest Okay cool Okay so what's more important to you Breaking the story Or having the best story I would say having the best story Cause like just Like breaking it is cool Right Like I like I guess dope to be first with some shit But I feel like And it's just for me I can't speak for anybody else But For me How I feel like I've been able to really develop A lot of relationships With big artists And people fuck with me It's just cause they know I'm not like Cloud chasing And I think a lot of this stuff That happens Is when you're trying to Be the first one A lot of people just Cloud chasing Cause they just trying to be the first one So I was like I don't even care if it's real I don't care what it is Like I just gotta get my shit out Right But like I feel like I've been able to sort of Build the trust with a lot of artists Cause it's like You know I just want to tell your story The right way Like You know Don't matter about who first Or whatever Yeah And you're definitely making the artist Comfortable And all out Like it definitely be a vibe And I feel like You get a lot of stories That they probably don't give Other places If that makes sense And to be clear I'm the one that broke that five-year-old May's story with 50 You know what I'm saying? Shout out to Gili and Walo I see it going viral Yeah But that was the first time Niggas really heard about that Was Was on my shit though Yeah You know the Inside You've been on that So So You feel like How can I say this? What's more Well I don't want to say What's more important But Going viral Or to inform people Like what's kind of the message At the end of the Episode Damn It's kind of both right Because like You know what I'm saying? Like today Let's be clear Like this You know We trying to get the best content That people are going to fuck with So going viral is ill Like I like When I'm being viral Like it's a dope feeling It's dope to see like A conversation you had With somebody Everybody talking about it That's dope So I kind of fuck with the viral shit But at the end of the day Like I said What was the other part? What was the second part? To inform Like to inform the audience and stuff It's a little bit of both And I hate doing You know I know you say you got to pick But it's kind of both because For me like I said A lot of what I do When I talk to these artists Is really to give Insight So people that Want to do this And really trying to like Understand what it is They could get gems from somebody Who like did the shit already You know what I mean? Do you be like Doing an interview and like Getting gems too? Hell yeah Yo I be So like Shout out like a couple of artists That give you like a lot of gems I know 50 Probably definitely there Because I was talking for a minute Man 50 for sure And I'm from Queens So that shit was That was a legendary That meant that meant a lot To a nigga like that was I did I shot Kevin Gates today Okay And Oh after the whole Karisha please After the Karisha please Yeah yeah I shot Kevin Gates And man he gave A lot of gems though Like he seems like He's a deep brother Like he a different brother But he deep though You know what I'm saying? Like I When I say different Oh he a query? When I say different It's like he He not really like a lot Of people that I've met Or come across He's his own person Like there's nobody really like that He's like so entwined With the world and nature Literally Like for me like Literally Energy He's big on energy Big So that was that's that's fine That's fine So like Okay on the music executive tip Like what's the more important Image or talent? That's a good one That is a good one You know this is the day Is when marketing is key Right Yeah But we can't front like We see some viral trash records Facts I mean to me I still I mean both of them are very important But to me I would still say the talent Just because Like you said Like you You could market your way To a viral moment But you're not going to be able to sustain it though And I mean And to me like I'm in the game Like everybody I signed Like you know I signed a couple big artists Anybody that I sign Is really like I'm in this to really like Move the culture And be here for a minute I ain't really just Hit it like Sign a nigga that got like One hot record And then next summer Nobody don't give a fuck about you I ain't really into that So to me I still think the talent But again be clear Talent to me is not just Wrapping good Okay It's more than It's more than that Like talent It's It's niggas that I fuck with like Like Cardi B got a talent That she is herself Like her personality is a talent You know what I'm saying? But don't you think that's an image also? That is an image also But I think Do you say image? It's like It feel like It's like Alright what do you do To make something Presentable But she's She just doing what she do Like I think regardless of if it was On the off camera This is This is how she is Like This is her Yeah She's definitely authentic in that way But he had like Image could be like drawn up It could be like You could Have to paint an image for artists Or they could kind of come like Already with that Yeah It's really like Cause pop image was Was fired too You know what I'm saying? I feel like You know But That's a hard one That's a hard one though Nah I know Cause like You know being at the label You have to like Of course your goal is to sign artists But you really want to Sign some shit So Then you got competition Then it's like I don't know you You look You look like elsewhere outside of New York I'm sure of it To sign artists Yeah of course I like y'all to To me today like We in the internet age So it's I don't care about where you from Cause it's the internet Yeah We all We all looking at the same Shit cause of the internet So it's like I don't really care where you from Like if you dope And you got it Like Let's Let's work Let's work Well you kind of answered this one already But Like Do you see like Real music For the next five years Or a new sound Arising It's gonna be a new sound It has to be Like I said What do you think this Mayor Adams ain't gonna let niggas He's not gonna let niggas rock Yeah It's bigger than us This is like The music is at a point Where it's affecting like Politics And shit like a real life shit You know what I mean So I just don't see it being able to sustain And that's a good question I don't I don't know what's next And I would love to hear that To me And that's what I really want to Look for That's what I'm looking for Out of New York Like for me Cause You know I'm a little old I'm 33 So I grew up in a time where like When New York was like lit You know what I'm saying It was Dipset Like New York was It was It was a different type of energy And not to say like You know It's definitely Shit's still shaking in the town But my thing is like Who gonna make the sound that's It's not just about what's winning now Who gonna make the sound that's like You know what I'm saying Like you doing you And people gonna fuck with it But I feel like a lot of people doing drill Cause Drills winning Right Like drills the shit that's lit Which is cool If you want to do that But I would love to hear New York artists That's just doing What they do Like it ain't just cause some shit is lit Like This is just I felt like this And I went in the studio And I recorded it This is how it sounded So that's really what I'm looking for Out of New York Cause I feel like in the last Couple years You know what I'm saying Like I feel like We got our identity a little bit like You know Chicago played a big role in What our identity looks like right now You know what I'm saying Even now I'm starting to hear the Jersey dubstep type of Moving and starting to happen So it's like We getting We borrowing shit from Jersey And again Everybody bars with everybody But I just want to hear New York And the young niggas coming up like Do some new Yeah Do some Make some shit Make some new shit That niggas ain't doing That's what I really want to hear And what I'm trying to fuck with I really like Capella man Like I want to see how he continues to What could he continue to do? But that first record Y'all know that summer What was that last summer? Yeah, that was definitely last summer That shit was insane It was crazy as he dropped him But I feel like it took so long Yeah You know Like I feel like sometimes like Yeah, you could push the record As much as you could But Fans want something new It's a new rapper every fucking day So like We want to do shit now Right But that's my only thing Cause that's what I like to tell Artists man Cause it's like I get it Like rap Rap is a hustle now, right? To where it's like Niggas, I'm trying to get money And I could get money like this Legal money Yeah, but you can't go to work Once every six months Facts That's a fact Like You gotta be in there At least a couple of times a month You want some check Like You know So just like I think artists should just like Keep that in mind like It's a new person Every day Trying to like You know Take your spot Right But um But I was gonna say like If you had to predict What you think the new sound would be Do you think you know Have you been hearing or something? Cause let's talk about The last lap is kind of like The song of the summer right now Last last Burner Glorilla Glorilla I like that glow really Listen, I seen that shit The second day they put it on YouTube And I was like It gave me the feeling like When I first seen Bobby Okay Cause it was just like Who the fuck is this ratchet ass girl Outside with her But there was a pregnant girl in the video They was just wallowing out And that's when I first seen Bobby That was the energy I got I'm just like Who the fuck is this nigga Just dancing and just talking crazy Memphis So I fuck with Glorilla She's heavy I really like that record And I feel like niggas Can fuck with that record too It ain't just like A girl record It's like you know what I'm saying I hate out of this spot I be like I be actually hard Yeah I mean again what she's saying Fuck nigga free right But just the verses in the bar I'm like this girl hard You know I love that because A lot of guys feel like They can't get with female records You feel me? I feel that but I Listen man I enjoy being able to see women Enjoying themselves Like it's like It's a feeling like a vibe When the girls are just like Enjoying this It's like then it's lit Like look at all these girls They're like you know what I'm saying I'm fuck with that Yeah I'm fuck with that You know what I'm saying Yeah in fact Nah but yeah like I feel like You know guys be like I really don't fuck with girls But Niggas be too tough for They own good sometimes Niggas just too I get it but like So you think that's the New York thing Or that's the everywhere thing I mean it's an everywhere thing But New York is extra though Like I'll be around You know what I mean I'll be around a lot of cities A lot of towns In New York the energy just You know I think it's just extra life You know what I'm saying I don't even know what to call that But you know what I'm saying New York aura I don't know Yeah New York's a little extra But I'm fuck with the girl records though Okay that's lit Alright so would you add Like would you add there Or Be able to only sign Artists forever Or would you be able to only sign producers forever Mmm that's a good question I know thank you That's a good question Damn You know what I feel like the Probably the producer yo To keep it a stack Okay Because if we really talking about What Defines a sound It's more the producer than The artist Okay Like if we talking about like When you hear You know we just mentioned Glorilla and Memphis Memphis got a sound Right like Winnie bag Pooh shiesty Big 30 Yo Gotti Like it's a certain sound That come with that You know what I mean Even back to the old day Juicy J and them was You know You know if we talking about the south Memphis you know Many fresh had you know The hot boy you know Many fresh had his sound Doing what he doing Yeah So it's like I really think The producers kind of Really define the sound So I probably would have to Take the production And then like you know Find an artist to build over that That was a dope question So like do you have Like a favorite producer right now Like who you My favorite producer right now Or is this like some people like You could shout out like Yo they been doing anything this year Um hmm I would say probably That's a good ass question Who been having a good run this year We and I Who been having a real good run this year I have my thoughts Let me see It's weird cause I'm not sure If it's like one person Like it's a couple of people Like that's really you know I feel like one is I mean I think I like hip boy shit a lot Because hip boy like That nigga beats don't be sounding Like nothing I never heard Like that nigga just be doing Different shit He do a lot of beats That people don't really know Is his beats Right Like he do a lot of songs If I'm like damn you know That's a hip boy like You know what I mean So I like hip boy shit a lot Um I really like that Memphis Sound a lot Yeah I don't know who you think Who reproduces I've been hearing ATL Jacob a lot this year That's a good one ATL Jacob I've been hearing him a lot this year Shout out to the little baby Cause I hear every time baby Get on one of them beats No like I fuck with baby too baby I've been like ATL They just have a great year so far I agree with that I agree with that And then like remember How you feel about when Bobby went in the ring And he was like um Produces a tax on the high right now Yeah yeah It's nasty work though I ain't go lie It's nasty work It's nasty work But I feel with Bobby coming I mean it's two fold right Cause one is you don't want To show up producers Because that's an important part of Every saying the ingredients To making a hit record That's damn That's half the ingredients Right there Right you know what I'm saying Yeah so You gotta pay for that Because niggas is really Giving you the blueprint To make sure that You can make a hit But on the other side The producer game Kind of fucked up right now Because niggas be doing loops So like I have to clear records right Like when I'm in Sony I got artists and it's like We gotta actually like Clear these records And it's like You gotta get the publishing Right from this producer But then this guy made the loop And then now you gotta Go with him And the shit just Start getting mad Complicated and Extra money And niggas is good Fuck it up though You know what I'm saying I feel with Bobby Was coming from But producers Definitely need to get They bag though Yeah so Ideally as a producer You want them to know I guess everything That's why I was like I guess making the loops And doing the drums And all that stuff Because a lot of producers Are collabing I know I hate that though Do you feel like that's cheating I don't wanna say it's cheating But I just hate Like I said From a clearance standpoint That shit is annoying Like it is annoying And people have been Like saying like Even the samples is like Cheating right now You do like the sample Because I feel like Bronx came And started really going Simple, crazy The last couple years That's a classical being And Sean even Latin They kinda started that whole Sean even Latin was the one I feel like yeah They started that whole Simple thing I mean It was exciting at first To hear like How they was gonna flip records After a while But like People started going Crazy sampling I don't know Yeah man They going crazy But again is I feel like niggas Be sampling until they Understand what it takes To actually clear a record Right cause It's one thing I just thought on YouTube Which is cool But if you want to Actually get your bread Yeah Like real bread Right You're publishing You gotta clear that And that's a That's a lot That's a whole lot So I don't really be Unless the sample Fire I be like Man stay away From these fucking samples Please man Yes And I feel like I feel like It's just like Also a thing of Being lazy too Because like You know like You said People gotta make the loops Parts of a beat That's already done It's kinda like The easy way out You know Nah I feel that I feel that I feel like They kinda get in Past with that But yeah Samples is Really like Going crazy right now So what are you Working on At the moment Man I'm working on a lot Of shit I signed a few New artists That I'm super excited About Wanna shout one out Yeah I Shout out A couple
