 Oh, you can do it, put your back into it. Okay, so I know you and him work this song together. Who? Ice Cube. So how did y'all come up with the whole, how did this happen? Give us a break. And I love Ice Cube, baby. Let's talk one on one, one on one. Here we go. Let me break in here. Oh, you can do it, put your back into it. Okay, so I know you and him work this song together. Who? Ice Cube. So how did y'all come up with the whole, how did this happen? Give us a break. And I love that song. Man, I love it. It's timeless. I love it. This work, you can listen to it and every time it's great. It sounds great, man. Okay, a backstory. Well, the last time you performed it, let me stop you. In Atlanta. How long ago? How long ago? Oh. It was my shoulder 31st. Let's do it again. I just did. I just did. I wanted to just put it. I want to make sure they know. Okay, no. Okay. I met Ice Cube before. I mean, right after I did Burn, we was in the studio, me and Mr. Tan from Baby Boy. That's one of my other partners. That's one of my favorite movies. Right? And, you know, so me and Mr. Tan, he's also, you know, the actor in the movie as well. So we was like, okay, let's play our music for Cube. You know, it was like one of those West Coast things where we had a meeting with him from Terry Carter, which R.R.P. was one of my good friends. And he was like, Mr. Alfamans, I don't know what I'm gonna do with you. I'm gonna give you Cube number. I'm gonna give you Mac number. So Mac from Inglewood like me. So I pushed that number aside and I want to go talk to Cube. Let's go see what Cube talk about. And so we vibe though. It wasn't no promises made, but it was just that good West Coast going back and forth with the music. So after I did Burn came back from the comrades because he's a West Coast group. He was like, damn, this is what happened. I had to get your connect. So me and him connect out of all of the people on the West Coast, I'm not giving my number out to everybody. You feel me? There's one rapper that I always see at everything me and him exchange numbers. And he called me. Toe, Cube needs you to get on this hook. And I'm like, who was he? Came back from the conference. Yeah, he worked with the football league. So he's like, I'm like, where y'all at? He like, we in Hollywood. I said, all right, well come get me. So then he like, all right, where you at? I'm in Inglewood because I need to pull up with these niggas. You feel me? I need to pull up. I'm not walking to those studio. You know what I'm saying by myself? So he's like, all right. So I'm like, okay, you know, he come give me everything. We walk in, the studio is dumb. There's so many people in there. I'm just like, whatever, because I block people out anyway and go do my job. And so Cube was like, yeah, you know, this is what we doing. And I was like, all right, hit the blunt. Went in the booth, did the shit and I was ready to go. You know what I'm saying? Because I don't really like hanging. I don't know these people. I know Cube. I know a couple of people, but the producer actually was standing. You said that so fast. When the booth made it happen. How fast? Yeah. Is it one take? Oh yeah. I'm one take. I'm serious about this. Okay. I'm serious about this voice. Cube was like, I like your voice. That's dope. Because, you know, these lines is going back and forth with a male and male and female on the track. Just out of there. Those got to get dope voices. It's no way you can go wrong. The chemistry has to be there too. Yeah. It's no way you can go wrong with something that's, the track is so full of positive energy. You know what I'm saying? Okay. But when you're working with somebody, how much does the chemistry have to do? Even when the voices are great. Do you have to have a vibe with a person to be able to work with them? Yeah. I mean, when I vibeed out with him a couple of years before that, I got my feel already. Okay. And I already knew. I was like, all right, we gon' go in the studio. And, you know, I was invited on an incredible song. A couple of weeks later, I heard it was a single. You know what I'm saying? So, I already was in contact with my attorney and things like, you know, they spelled my name wrong. Like you said, what I go through, they spelled it in my S. They had to get that shit, right? You know what I'm saying? But who am I? They gon' spell it wrong right now. Do you feel me? If it wasn't this bitch keep selling us to do stuff. I won't try to get my name right because they let it wrong. They thought I was Lil' Kim. You know what I'm saying? They ain't give me no credit. You feel me on the open smoke? The niggas try to be dirty back me and say I was gossiping. So, this is a lot of shit that somebody have to go through when you're in a business and you're on an incredible song. When you say somebody or it's just females have to go through this stuff. No, males go through it too. Okay. Males get accused of a lot of shit too. Especially on the road. We not gon' act like women are always the ones. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm just a few that don't care about how y'all perceive me after I do what I'm doing. You know what I'm saying? To ignore you. Because now I'm gon' go against the grain. Every time you ask me to do something a certain way I'm gon' kinda go against the grain a little bit because I know somebody got an agenda. Because you always hear about the females. Maybe because the females are the ones who are always complaining and saying stuff like that about the industry. We cost a lot of money. Now, if you invest in your own money to keep yourself fly then it don't take them all day to go take care of business for you. You'll have more work done if you came halfway prepared as women. You know what I'm saying? Don't go to your event and then you need everything done. Your hair washed, you need full makeup, you need somebody to dress you. You gotta play a position in your business. This is my business. So I have to make sure I look good before somebody else try to think they can make me look good. And you are all around artists. Can you talk about being a female in an industry and some females, what they need to do is know how to be the engineer. You know how to do this now. How many things in this industry do you know how to do? Okay, well, first of all, I learned how to write, be a writer and learn how to own it by registering my music when I became an artist. I started up with BMI long before. Somebody was like, you get a hit, you gonna make money for the rest of your life. That's all somebody had to tell me one time and I believed it. That's the most honest shit that somebody ever told me in this business. Yeah, we on boss talk one-on-one, one-on-one. Yeah, we gon' talk.
