Just go to school with some guys, you meet some boys with me, like, either you get ops, like, either you know the ops from school or you're the niggas now, you get a lot of new hate and shit, but you know, used to be, you know what I'm saying? Chilling a lot of side blocks and getting slimy on them side blocks. So, if you have to explain what a structure, like, give us a little definition. If structure was in a dictionary, well, it is, but feel me, y'all version of it. If structure was in a dictionary, the definition would be swag. Like, young niggas, you think, you say swag a lot. Come on, man. Everything's swag. Young niggas know swag, young niggas know structure. If it has structure, swag. Come on, like, for me, people have the structure up. Young niggas know structure, you don't got nothing. Everybody know what structure is. They know. You have to build structure within, within, you know what I'm saying? So, you got to, you're not born with structure, you got to earn that shit. Born with, I was born with structure. Me and JJ and them boys, totally different type of boys, you know? True rude boys for me. We was born with structure. Okay, okay, okay. So, how did you meet all the structures? Like, did y'all grow up together? I'm back, y'all, buddy. We grew up in the same schools, played in parks together. I'm with my guys. I'm gonna say how all grew up together. So, um, so, growing up, listening to music, who's you listening to back in the day? Like, growing up. Who are some of the influences? For some reason, I'm a show love, the soldier boy, cause I see him back so full of love now. We dead ass with ten years old in the back, y'all. Doing that like a dance for me. Fuckin' butt. You know, the boys, you know, Drake Wayne, the boys, you know? My pops love Biggie, so, you know, I was trying to type it. But I was in the back of the car, before I could remember my age, singing 50 cent songs. Y'all about saying 50 cent was going on niggas too? Shit like that. Okay, so what makes you choose a drill beat when you do it music? I used to write all type of different, you know? I feel like I'm gonna write for a lot of niggas when I really get through what I'm supposed to do. So you wouldn't mind writing for us niggas? I mean, for that fettuccine, cause I'm gonna have niggas saying that shit. I ain't flowin' that shit. I got it, it's dead, you know? I stuck to the drill, cause that's what sounded best. Like, you know, a lot of sound partying. Okay, my question. Cause a lot of people say like... My voice is shit. People been jacking your swag, people been jacking your originality. So what do you gotta say about all that? You agree? They paying attention. It's like, it's like... Me, even, you can't find a niggas sound like me. They might try, but you know? Every time I make a truck, it's gonna be a different flow. So you can still have that old flow and come to that new shit. Yeah. So what was the memes going around saying? Like, Leakey finally getting the recognition he deserves. What do you think? Yeah, I mean... A little bit more than before. Shout out to Rap Carriole and them boys. That's what they took them out, really. You know what I mean? But niggas know what's going on. A lot of people be in tune, but you know? A lot of people don't... What do they recognize? Niggas know, but they don't show that love. They want to see me get that love is what they mean. Okay, so you feel like you need some more love? I need strength. What? They don't need no love. No man, we work and niggas know what's going on. That's the thing, but... People not gonna promote you, especially even the big pay. Not gonna promote you. You gotta pay for that shit. So when they see me getting shit, organically they... They gonna be on your body. Alright, so how do you feel about the Brooklyn music scene? How do you feel about the Brooklyn music scene? You from the stars, from canines, from everywhere, all coming up right now. I feel like Brooklyn's doing a thing, too much politics. What's your thoughts on the Brooklyn scene? This is doing a thing. Brooklyn is a whole lot of politicians. They got guan. A whole lot of cop them. But yeah. I think it's doing a thing right now. I'm liking this shit. I'm loving it. So your tape dropped. You gotta collaborate. What's your problem out now? What's your problem? Viral, AB mixed tape. Classic. So how did the collab with Stunna come about? Surely that's Stunna. Shout out to Stunna G. Top of all, chill. Boys, for me, Shorty. Shout out to Fat Ricky. My boy Ruby, you know. You just know people we know, you know. Shorty was working. You just made that shit happen, you know. You don't really get into the internet beef. Do you feel like people be clout chasing or you don't really be too much on the internet scene? What's your thoughts on that? Shit. People definitely be clout chasing. They be trying to feign to have a moment to have you up there looking bad or out of character. For me, I easily be getting out of character. I can't act like I don't. So I'm trying to stay away from that shit, you know. Less on the internet or you just working on yourself? Shit. I don't need the internet as an artist, so... So I be on the internet. I be putting all my little shit, my one, two and shit, but I ain't trying to be no troll type of nigga. All right, so in two, three shots, you see people having anger issues and anxiety. Where does that come from? Anger issues. I don't know where anger issues come from. That shit really be like an issue. It sound cool. But I don't even like getting angry all the time. I be wanting to calm down when I can't. It's scary. I'm still mad. I don't want to be mad no more. So... Can I get mad fast? Not because I want to. Who want to be some angry with? That shit just, I just be tight. Different. But that anxiety, the word, that anxiety come from things that are optimistic. It's preparing for the worst. Preparing for the worst. So out of all the songs that's out right now, what's your favorite song that you made? Favorite shit. What's your favorite shit? I'm gonna tell you my favorite shit, but what's your favorite shit? Shit, I be switching. I ain't gonna lie, that tape is crazy. I've been trying to think what's my favorite song in the tape for a minute. Just so I can answer this question. Why? For us? I know you say it online. I sound like one of them rappers right now, but I be watching the interview too. I'll be understanding. Even when niggas say they're freestyle and niggas describe you. Shit, I'ma go with... That you made that's out right now. Out? No, I release. I'ma go with 2-3 shots. 2-3 shots? Pardon me, the bad guy. I'ma pick 4 or 5. I make that type of music. We took about intro on my mixtape. We took about 2-3 shots. We took about the bad guy himself. We took about... I got all type of... He moves though. So I'ma pick like 10 songs. I aint go long. So you feel like... In music you feel like you improved because I feel like your old songs still hit. But everybody like your new shit too. So where do you think you improved that lyrically or what do you think? Sometimes I'm like I don't know but I'm full of lyrically. That made a difference. At the same time it's like now I don't write no more so I'm just catching these flows I used to never be I got the G in the neck now I got more from them. I'm up in the energy on it. Catching that shit easier. Okay. Tell us about your newest video. Intro. What inspired that song? What inspired that song? Yeah. I'm in the freestyle Jordan mode at this time too. Now I don't write. I believe rap is when they said that shit because the song would be so crazy but now I get it it's kind of easier to make crazy songs with some flows hit a crazy beat in a moment like everything would be perfect. So I'm in the studio and I got my producer Jarvis, I did most of the songs on the tape with him. He must have seen me do the many men freestyle. He sent me some shit I instantly heard this shit like this some meek type of shit. I just went in there. Whoa. So what artists do what artists do people often compare to or you don't really watch that? I don't really get compared to too much artists. They be comparing to meek people like that. I don't really be seeing that shit. They be seeing it being a little different. Yeah they do be seeing that too. So what's your overall goal in the music industry? Like what's something on your bucket list you want to accomplish? Bucket list? Yeah bucket list. Two things I ain't bucket list for the music scene. Shit. I said goals and I ain't bigger so it's going to be like a little small shit. We go step by step so you definitely want to get there you know? Like what? A pie to pie? A Grammy or what? I won't ask you. I'm trying to see all that shit but I'm going to take you to step by the time so right now I want to see part of this amount of views. I said goals and I ain't bigger. So you got little goals and you ain't go bigger for them. Alright so any upcoming collabs on the way that we don't know about already? I wouldn't probably tell what you mean.
