Speaker 2:I had it on my phone. I never used it. And then my homie, my neighbor, he said he was using it and he was playing some tracks. I'm like yo, this is crazy.
Speaker 1:Yo, I never. I didn't know, it was like that easy, that easy or that motherfucking efficient.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying. Like yo, nigga, you have no excuse. You could be, you could be at work. Matter of fact, when you uh send me your reference, I heard, I heard niggas lifting weight. Yo, I was in the gym.
Speaker 1:I was in. I was in the gym fucking lifting, hearing clink clink in the background and shit, I'm over there rapping and shit motherfuckers looking at me I'm like yeah, I ain't got no excuses, bro, I gotta do this verse yeah, that's.
Speaker 1:That's exactly what the like yo, band lab was a game changer, I would put investment in that stock and we doing sponsors. So, band lab, y'all want sponsorship. Hey, we know, rappers, hit it up, hit up the brilliant ass Podcast, because we need it. You feel me. We need it to come our way. But, yeah, it's no right or wrong way when it comes to laying down ideas, man, laying down ideas, recording ideas, all that shit. What's your like studio? What's your like studio essentials that you need. Like we're going to the studio, we're in a session, you know it's about to be, you know whatever, I don't know what kind of session, but any kind of session, what's your? What's your like necessities? Like I gotta have this.
Speaker 2:Like I guess five things water water always needed damn because back in the day it was like weed, weed.
Speaker 1:Always need weed, need snacks, but ain't on that, no more, even though there's anything wrong with it. Niggas need you know getting a zone or whatever you know they got to fire up whatever they really don't.
Speaker 2:I really just need water, just water. Yeah, I don't I mean, and some snacks. It depends on how long we in.
Speaker 1:See, I need all right. So my is like preferably I'm be comfy, I'm being some slides or some hoop shorts or something like that. I need to get fresh, preferably a robe. I'll be real if I'm real comfortable, and I'm I, I done made some of them. One of them, some of them, ones in a robe, the home studio or like I mean, yeah, home studio.
Speaker 1:If I'm gonna be well, first top pick, my shit is like preferably, I want to be in remote locations. Yeah, so my studio essentials is like everything but the studio. I know that sound crazy, but like, I like being in like remote places. I like being in like places that a studio ain't even supposed to be in, like when was in atlanta, the airbnb was in chicago, there, like that, overlooking the city yeah, set up in the living room you know what I'm saying like floor, the ceiling glass, looking at the willis towers like that type, I just like being in the natural element.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't like, because sometimes, like when I'm in the studio, I was like I'm in the studio feel closed in and then even like when I'm rapping, it's like damn the mic. I'm in front of mike, I'm in the studio. Now I got a little. I'm a little nervous for no reason, but if I'm at the crib location, around remote location or around the guys. Then we just vibing Everything is raw and natural and it's just like ain't even no mic right here. We just doing that shit yeah just going off the top.
Speaker 1:It ain't no pressure off, that Ain't no pressure. That's another reason why I like BandLab, because you just you're not really overthinking it, you're just laying ideas, you know what I'm saying. Laying down, of course, if something hits and you want to go make it work and polish it, then yeah, go to the studio. But you got that. Yeah, you got reference. Yeah, lay that idea down. You might got to remember how you said that cadence. You got to remember how you were saying that type of flow or that pattern or the way your tone was or your voice was or whatever. You got to remember that shit. You can only write words and read it like. It's been plenty of times when I'll write lyrics and then look back at it and be like how the fuck did I rap it or how the fuck did I even say this? Yeah, and then you read it back and you like this don't even go with what the fuck I was saying. I like you know I I'm saying but when you got a reference, even if it's a voice memo, whatever but yeah, I like making beats, I like being in remote locations, I need me like a movie or a TV show or something playing in the background.
Speaker 1:My go-to is like Breaking Bad. I don't know why Everybody that does studio sessions with me always be like yo, you always watching Breaking Bad. Rob Markman, it's a good show, but it just and there's no point in that show where you don't look up and be like it's some wild shit happening. Rob Markman, bro, it's just bad. The wire, yeah, rob Markman, that's how it is. I let shit rock like that. So remote. I need, yeah, like a movie or TV show. I need coffee, water and probably like some type of berries, like strawberries, blueberries, shit like that. That'd be like my go-to. That's like a comfortable setting for me. Yeah, slides, hoop, shorts, a robe, this ain't going to sleep in here.
Speaker 1:Session nah, that's the vibe no, I got.
Speaker 2:I like to be fresh like. I just like to feel good while I'm rapping.
Speaker 1:I like to feel I got a picture of myself you're gonna put every single chain on feel I got a picture you're gonna put every single chain on. I feel that you gotta get in that mode. And then there's one more thing oh yeah, bitches that's what we need I'm playing I'm playing, I'm playing ladies, I'm playing, I'm not that guy.
Speaker 1:But now that's the studio session. I mean studio centrals. Man, usually that's the type of shit. So, like, what advice would you give like, uh, like an artist or a or a producer artists? Well, as far as, like I was gonna get at studio etiquette, like what to do in the studio or what not to do in the studio, you know I'm saying, like around like industry, big name producers, producers, a little awkward, shout out to my producers, but y'all niggas is awkward as hell and um, it's, I understand, because y'all just be in the beats. You know I'm saying y'all niggas be in the beats, but producers, y'all gotta uh, be a little bit more, um, a little bit more engaged. Yeah, you know I'm saying, but artists tend to be engaged more, but the artists are like reserved too sometimes, but sometimes it kills the vibe, but sometimes I understand, because y'all be like I don't know these. You know what I'm saying, or that's what that you built.
Speaker 2:That's when you build that. Reporter a couple sessions in yeah cause the well we was. Uh, we say I don't think I said a word to you back in the day and that went until it was time for you to get in the studio yeah yeah, I know I had to build that, but I had to build that I had to build that relation. When dwg first came in, who laid the first verse?
Speaker 1:oh, big bro who laid the first verse big bro uh, bro, it was you, big bro of course, because you came in with that damn um mini uh pc pocket. You pull that damn pc out your pocket. Mini, fucking PC pocket, you pull that damn PC out your pocket. I'm like yo, why is this?
Speaker 2:computer so small.
Speaker 1:I didn't know if that shit was a 2A or a motherfucking, but no, that's my idea of people in the studio. It's all about the vibe and the energy and you can't have somebody in there that's just throwing it off like, yeah, throwing, throwing, throwing the vibes off, throwing the studio, like the session off, playing weird shit. You know we read the fucking room. Be prepared, be prepared, be for yo, be for fucking having these ready.
Speaker 2:If you're gonna, if Read the fucking room, be prepared, be prepared, be prepared. Have them beats ready.
Speaker 1:If you're going to play something for somebody, don't play them, no off-the-wall shit. Now, if you're a producer and you're going to play some fucking house shit, I know you're going to be in there playing drum and bass music. Estg will be in there. You're playing drum and bass dog. What the fuck man.
Speaker 2:The crazy part is well, I'm fucking good.
Speaker 1:But that goes to my next point. Some artists, y'all need to let the producers produce you. Y'all niggas are scared to let producers produce you. You know what I'm saying. Like let me, if I have an ear or if I have a skilled ear, but that does come with trust. You know, if I got trust and I'll show and prove my work and what I've done before, like okay, you know my ear Right, you know my ear has been trusted, so let me trust me to guide you down the right path If I take you to go do some left field shit. Trust it.
Speaker 1:Just roll with it. You know what I'm saying. Trust the progress. Let me roll with it. Let me hear it out. I got an idea. Let me see where it's going to go. You know what I'm saying. So that's the way I look at it. But y'all got to not be scared to let producers produce you. So that leads to my next idea, or my next topic is the difference between beat makers and producers.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so I'm glad you brought that up what you think. I'm glad you brought that up.
Speaker 1:What's your opinion?
Speaker 2:Because I'm now from experience. I'm becoming more of a producer now than just a beat maker. A producer is gonna help you guys. You do the fucking do the song. I'll tell you how to say things, where to say for it, or to say it and shit yeah we're just a beat makers gonna give you the beat.
Speaker 1:This is rap on this just give the beat, but like here you go yeah, producers gonna help you. Actually, you make this, conduct this song yeah, you'll see it through from start to finish. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2:I got two or three hours I'm working with now I'm like actually like yo, no, say it like this yeah like this.
Speaker 1:We're gonna add this part right here when you see that that comes more from a producer, a producer mindset, yeah, of just being creative, of seeing a song all the way through. It's not just giving a, giving an artist a beat and then being like, oh yeah, do your thing. Yeah, you know I'm saying go crazy. So a lot of people that's a big debate all the time people be like, oh, you're just a beat maker, oh, you're not even a producer. But it's like, okay, what's the difference between a beat maker and a producer? I thought it was the same thing at one point. Yeah, a lot of people do. A lot of people be like what's the, what's the difference?
Speaker 2:I was just a beat maker at one point.
Speaker 1:But now I was like no, yeah, a lot of a lot of people wonder what the difference is about beat making and producing, and that's the difference, the beat maker is just gonna make the beat.
Speaker 1:The beat is gonna, uh, just turn out or come out the way it's gonna come out, and then the, the producer is actually gonna interject in this in the song and go okay, do this like this. Yeah, take this part, put this here, say this here oh, let's add this here, let's take this out. Let me add strings here. Let me add guitar here. Let me add guitar here.
Speaker 2:Let me add a singer here.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying. That's a producer. You know if you got any input and that's why sometimes I might not even need to touch the beat, I might not even made the beat, but I'm going to produce the track.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying's what Khaled gets a lot of credit and a lot of confusion from too, because people look at Khaled and go what the fuck does Khaled? Do you know what I'm saying? He doesn't even make beats, it's like hold on. He pieces those songs together, don't just undercut them. You know what I'm saying? It's a skill to take that beat from that producer or that beat maker and be like, okay, i'ma get ludicrous t-pain uh, snoop dogg, who else was on? All I Do Is Win Uh.
Speaker 2:Was it Fat Joe Rick?
Speaker 1:Ross. It was Ross, I think. I think that was a remix. But yeah, we good, we probably about to cut this shit.
Speaker 2:You know what I didn't think about the logistics? Cause the camera got this was the. Why probably about to cut this. You know what I didn't think about the logistics? Because the camera got this was the why with both? Of y'all, but it's also got, won't be all cameras.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know, oh yeah, I wanted to hide those. I I know, so that's why I put down his die here. What the you gonna do? Do we just filling it out?
Speaker 2:We're just filling it out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but but anyway, like I said, you know that's that's where Khaled gets his credit from Is being a producer, young, young Hit maker yeah, used to be Young Bird Hit maker he don't. He's admitted he's like I don't even make beats, but he's got the most Fucking hits out, most credits out. It's like how he's a producer. He know how to make hits. I got a team of beat makers who make beats. I take all their beats, I shop them to people that I know I can do something with them and get them placed and produce the record and get hits Rob Markman.
Speaker 2:You got this, you got that. Yeah, you don't know what to do with it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, rob Markman, what you going to do with it?
Speaker 2:Yeah, Rob Markman, what you going to do with it.
Speaker 1:I ain't got to touch shit.
Speaker 2:Rob Markman, let me, yo give me this bag, and we good, Let me do it.
Speaker 1:Don't worry if I make beats. I write checks, but yeah, man, um, in closing, we're about to wrap. That was cool. We're gonna see how this shit turned out. Um, it's a lot of other shit I wanted to get into, but we'll get into. When we test this shit out, we're gonna record these and drop these and stay in. Y'all niggas face as much as possible. I'm really just using this shit to make content and have a bunch of clips that I can chop up and post every day so I can look like I'm active so this is my way of getting back up getting outside without being outside I feel you yeah, I don't want to.
