What Success Means Personally

SPEAKER_01

You know, I mean we carry the conversation a little bit after, but yeah, just I mean everything you're saying is relevant and insightful, so we we we write on topic, man. The questions is just to spark it, man, to be honest. And you you talk about doing your own thing and finding success. What what does success mean to Matt Stoney?

SPEAKER_00

Success to Matt Stoney is accomplishing everything that I set out to accomplish. So success to me is a personal. I don't know if I want to share with success to Matt Stoney because it's a part of my superpower and my mistake. Because remember, right? How can you gauge me if you don't know what he's trying to attain, what his version of success is, and you won't be able to compare me to anybody else or compare my version of success to the next man because success is um subjective.

SPEAKER_01

Exactly.

SPEAKER_00

So I believe that I already win because the things that I said I gonna do since high school, I did it.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, to that same point, Patrick does tell me all the time, bro. Remember that we already successful.

SPEAKER_00

We already so so sometimes we need to calm down and like because think of it, like success is measured when you're comparing it, right? So it's like you put you next to a drink champs. You may seem like you ain't successful, yeah, right? But you compare you to the space that you're in, yeah, with what you're doing and the the quality of content you're providing, bro. Like you ain't really no comparison, you're successful already. It's just that you know the audience ain't tune in to what's happening right now, and this gonna be a timestamp and a testimony to the success of the show.

SPEAKER_01

I appreciate it.

Why Comparison Breaks The Metric

SPEAKER_00

And I'm saying it with conviction, you feel me? Like, are you just sleeping? Are you sleeping? I ain't we a cop yet to what you understand so like I say, success is what you set out for it to be, and you are individual targets that you may not even share with people. You can't really share too much of things with people, cause you got forces fighting against you, you feel me? So like I say, um success for me is um game to accomplish my personal goals.

SPEAKER_01

I think that you you actually answer the question how I wanted the question answered because the idea was to make sure that people understand that success is an internal metric. Like you gotta dictate you thing, I was important to you because I find a lot of the times people they be using the wrong metrics. And I think it's I don't remember who I think it's I think it's Albert Einstein actually said that if you were to measure the ability of a fish by its ability to ride a bicycle, the fish would live his entire existence thinking that it's dumb. Because it's not meant to ride bicycles, and made to me, it's made to swim. Yeah, so if the fish don't know he's supposed to be swimming, cause everybody's saying he's supposed to ride a bike, he can live your whole life not to be able to do it.

SPEAKER_00

Not realizing superpower. Exactly. You understand? So me, like we can't, you know, off camera. You know, we share a lot of things like you say, like, yeah, it's a level of success for me personally. I just don't want to share with people, you feel me? Like mine our business. I suppose to know everything. We just gonna guard their luggage, okay? Everything I supposed to know. Yeah, but yeah, it's it's love band, but ain't everything we and tell them because then they try to like pre a different and you understand? So yeah, I I feel like I very successful and in hitting the targets that I set out to hit like years ago, and to even be seen on here over 10 years having this conversation about the inception of Matt Stone is just a testament. Like, come on.

SPEAKER_01

Full circle moment, man.

SPEAKER_00

Full circle moment, and we said we would have this dialogue like years ago.

Naming Omnipotent And Owning Style

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, without a doubt. It's like you said, man, this happened so organic, like we picked the day and just how the whole vibe went to set up the conversation that we have it now because the dialogue we had before this to me set the premise and give me a better insight into who Mad Stoney is, uh, who Mad Massoud is. Yeah, correct. Before I actually sit down with the individual to have this conversation. And I think the background that you provided prior to this was extremely helpful for me because it gave me a sense of your thought process and into how you think about things, how you approach things, and you drop a lot of gems off camera that I wish I had, yeah, to be completely honest with you. But you drop so much more gems here tonight, you know what I mean, on camera, and then the next time we sit down again, it's gonna be the same thing. I just got a few more questions before we get out of here. I kinda wanna go back to the creative side a bit. And I was telling you about omnipotent earlier, and I feel like it's just an exceptional body of work, like top to bottom, it's short and sweet, ain't too long neither. So sometimes I find myself like I spin it three times back to back and not even really realise that I don't want it three times back to back until I get to one Basaka again. It's like, ah dad, this is the third time. You dare be the job of this track, man. And I just wanna ask you where the name came from for the tape omnipotent.

SPEAKER_00

Uh the name came from like just years of doing, years of being in the scene, the SK scene and just doing it different. And I could remember one time, like infamous. I wrote he he wrote a post, like I think it was after my first music festival performance or main show which show and he expound about like the uniqueness, like how different I be like, is like, you know, like it's just just a different vibe from you know comparing to like any other like artist before uh you know after. And just always being like spoken about in, you know, that kind of like manner. Yeah. Just a sense of omnipotence. Still. You feel me? It's like when it comes to like the genre what I in, like, I just feel like hey, the omnipotent one because at the end of the day before me, ain't nobody was like rapping with no saying kids accent, my bye. Everybody were trying to sound like they're from foreign or they're from somewhere other than saying it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

Independence Branding And Cultural Sound

SPEAKER_00

You understand? And I make a personal decision to say, like, no, I gonna sell culture through music. I want when somebody hears me for the first time, they wanna like, where you from? Uh, what I mean, what does song mean? You feel me? So it's just you're selling culture through music, and I want it to be the first mod stone in that like the next 50 cent, the next like that shit whack to me. Like, me wanna be like nobody like that, can't you check? Like, I just wanna be me, make my own mistakes, do it my way, um, carve my lane my way. Because at the end of the day, how you're gonna be a curator, an innovator, and you're following. You're following somebody. Nothing wrong with being inspired. Because that there's a difference, it's a big difference, you understand? But I just was like, but man, really want to sound like nobody. I want I like I believe in individuality, you understand? I believe like you know, like when you see me, you should noise me. Like I said, dub myself six foot five and bony. And fun fact, that was my first actual mixtape title. And people just like would run with these things. People you see me be like, yo, six foot five and bony, you know, image, branding where you see is where you noise me when you see me. So, you know, to tie back into the question, all those things like you know, over the years and like the love where we get outside people. Oh, and as in Bailey, one time he referred to me as like this mythical kind of just like it's the name where you just know and you, but sometimes it's like it's like the name or just you know the name. It's like, oh Matt Stoney, but some people be like, I mean, you know, it has an overseas artist uh it yeah, something you check it outside. Just was like, but yeah, I was just in the energy of omnipotence. You checking like I say, spiritual belief and background. So I feel like when it comes to the genre and the space I wasn't operating in based on the reaction, the reception, the features, you know, like the groundbreaking things I did within the genre never been done locally. Yeah, you understand, and that's just facts. You check none of this documented the truth. The truth is the truth. So I feel like I just perfect what the ones had started before me and just made it my own. And yeah, that that made me like the omnipotent one within that genre, that space, you feel me? Facts, and that's where you know you come up with the title omnipotent for the EP. I need a careful carefully covered in a big stage bullying. I believe that is technically.
