00:00Get in here.
00:01I feel like daytime TV.
00:03I know, we like the Arsenio Hall show or something.
00:05Yeah, nah, for real.
00:06You know?
00:07You got a couch?
00:09You got a room?
00:10Lay back, lay back, tell me your problems.
00:11Yeah, yeah, for real.
00:13I feel like Dr. Phil.
00:15All right, we're going to Dr. Phil you now.
00:18We're going to do that.
00:19All right, let's do it.
00:20Because, I mean, your story is incredible.
00:21Now, first of all, we got to move back,
00:23and we're going to set the scene for everybody who might not be up.
00:26We're going to go two years ago.
00:28Okay.
00:28Two years ago, there was a kid that was working in the TGI Fridays
00:32that was rapping under his breath while he was bringing people their food.
00:35Yeah, for sure.
00:36Was he messing up people's orders?
00:38Nah, but he was, if you order, like, a side of shrimp,
00:41one of them was definitely missing.
00:46It happens.
00:47It happened.
00:48It happened.
00:49Several times.
00:50All right, so was that kid ready for what's going on right now?
00:54Oh, he was too ready.
00:55Was he ready, though?
00:56His ego was ready, but was he ready?
00:58Nah, nah.
00:59He was ready, for sure.
01:00Like, he was, like, he was more than ready.
01:03I don't know.
01:04He might have been.
01:05He might have been.
01:06All right, well, I say that to slide to now 170 plus,
01:12170 million plus streams that you got going on right now.
01:17170 million streams on this album that's just been out a few weeks.
01:21Dang.
01:21Really.
01:22I didn't know that.
01:23Yeah.
01:24Like, 100 total to date, 171 million streams.
01:29So now.
01:29I'll take it.
01:30You'll take it.
01:31You'll take it.
01:32How does that feel, knowing that that kid who was in there in the restaurant trying to
01:36get on is now proving everybody that he was right?
01:41Uh, it feels good, but also I still feel like I still got a lot to prove.
01:46You know what I'm saying?
01:47I'm still, like, in a, we done got, we done kicked in the door.
01:50We in the door.
01:51Now it's time to renovate the house.
01:53You know what I'm saying?
01:54And get something out of it.
01:55You know what I'm saying?
01:56So, uh, it definitely feels good, though.
01:59It definitely, it definitely feels good.
02:01You just turned 21 and you did something special for your 21st birthday.
02:04Where were you, uh, for your 21st birthday?
02:07You were in the studio with somebody.
02:09Oh, yeah, yeah.
02:09Dre.
02:09I was in the studio with Dr. Dre.
02:11Yeah.
02:12Dr. Dre.
02:13Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:13Hell of a 21st birthday.
02:15I mean.
02:16Hell of.
02:16I mean, how does, okay, for a hip-hop kid, for all of these people who know who Dre is,
02:23how did it feel to be in that studio, in that session with Dre, not only knowing who you
02:28are, but vibing and feeling everything that you're doing, because he gave you a hell of
02:32a cosign.
02:34Oh, man, that shit felt crazy.
02:37I was like, what the fuck?
02:39Like, I'm sorry.
02:40I was like, what the fuck is life?
02:43That shit was crazy.
02:44I mean, like, Dr. Dre is pretty much one of the, like, well, I can say he's like Quincy
02:50Jones, but then again, you've chopped it up with Q, too.
02:53I mean.
02:53Yeah, for sure.
02:54You know, so, again, being so young in this game, and we're going to talk about what
02:58kind of the perception of youth in hip-hop, but, like, to have that kind of cosign come
03:04from the doctor, I mean, he's grabbed 50 Cent, he's grabbed Eminem, you know, he's put out,
03:09you know, all of the NWA product that we know and everything else, for him to look at you
03:14and say, man, I think you got it.
03:15I mean, he, to quote him, he said, boy, this boy is hard.
03:18Like, and I know I've said the same things about you, but I ain't Dre.
03:22Yeah, for sure.
03:23So, when Dre say it, that's got to put a battery in your bag.
03:27Oh, yeah, for sure.
03:28Definitely.
03:31Damn, yeah, it's definitely, like, what the fuck?
03:33You know what I'm saying?
03:34Like, that's the God.
03:36You know what I'm saying?
03:37So, it's definitely, like, I'm like, man, little old me.
03:40You know what I'm saying?
03:41So, it's just dope.
03:42If you, because I know we're doing a session here where we're going to play music for people
03:45because I want them to get a vibe.
03:47Okay.
03:47If you could play brand new You Just Meetin' Dre, if you could play one record off of Lost Boy
03:57and say, Dre, I'd like you to hear my demo, what record would that be?
04:04I don't know.
04:08Hmm.
04:10Maybe.
04:14Shit, I don't know.
04:15This one is, see, it's like telling you one of your kids.
04:18Maybe, it's probably R&P because Anderson's on it.
04:21You know what I'm saying?
04:21Because that's the connect.
04:23Okay, that makes sense.
04:24All right.
04:25I have, probably Have Mercy, maybe.
04:27Have Mercy's Fire, too.
04:28That's one of my favorites.
04:29I want to play one of them, so.
04:31A Thousand Words.
04:32A Thousand Words.
04:32How's that?
04:33That's my first one right here.
04:34Okay, dope.
04:35That's, I mean, there's something in your music where it's not just what people consider the
04:41young, they call it mumble, they call it new millennia.
04:45They call it, it's a bunch of names, and none of them are really respectful.
04:49And then you step forward, and a lot of people who had a lot to say about the new hip-hop
04:55artists all ran to you and said, yo, this dude's different.
04:59Yeah.
04:59And we're going to talk a little bit more about that, but I want you guys to get a
05:04taste of it.
05:04For those of you who haven't downloaded it yet, cop that.
05:08All everybody on wild94.1.com, we're about to go in.
05:11Let's do Thousand Words first, and let's vibe out while everybody's eating pizza, and we're
05:15going to chill with YV and Cordae.
05:17I got pizza?
05:18Hell yeah, we do.
05:19Oh, man, say less.
05:20It's right there behind that door.
05:21Say me a couple slices of pepperoni.
05:23Let's play Thousand Words, let's get them something to eat.
05:26Let's go.
05:26And the wings.
05:27Thanks.
05:28Thanks.
