The moment PBE Messico sits down on the Family Business Podcast, his energy fills the room. This isn't just another release day interview – it's a coming-of-age story told through music.
"This shit is more important than breathing for me," Messico declares with unflinching conviction. "If this music stuff don't work, kill me bro. I don't want to do nothing else." His debut mixtape, Purple Heart Tape, represents not only his artistic vision but his lifeline – a way out of the streets and into something greater.
Growing up quite literally surrounded by music (his father describes baby Mexico sitting on his lap at the mixing console), his path wasn't always clear. Despite excelling in sports and attending college for football, Messico couldn't escape his musical calling. "I literally put football off just so I could write more songs and sit in my dorm," he reveals. The passion was undeniable.
What makes this conversation so compelling is Mexico's raw honesty about straddling two worlds. "It felt like a race to see if I'm going to go to jail first or am I going to blow up first," he admits, discussing the pull between street life and his creative aspirations. This tension infuses every track on Purple Heart Tape, particularly standouts like "Spin," "What's Going On" and the introspective closer "Somebody Save Me."
The familial element adds another rich dimension – working alongside his father (who doubles as manager and mentor), Messico navigated the challenging transition from independent creation to professional production. Their occasional studio arguments – vividly described with both frustration and laughter – resulted in some of the project's strongest moments. Through this process, Messico learned perhaps his most valuable lesson: "Shutting the fuck up is a skill."
Stream Purple Heart Tape now on all platforms and witness the evolution of an artist who's just beginning to realize his potential while honoring where he came from.

You know what I'm saying Because you know I had the privilege of being next to you as a portion of this project was created . I won't say all of it , but I'll say a portion of it . What was it like being able to work side by side with your father , who is also your manager , who is also your mentor , and all these different things ? What was it like for you working side by side ?
Speaker 1I don't know if y'all are expecting me to say something crazy , but he's my fucking dad , bro . It's normal Bro . He coached me when I played football , so it's just we did the same . Literally .
Speaker 3He's been so like bro , like when I tell you like the man , be involved in everything I do can we , is it okay , we can get in this a little bit too , for sure , for sure all right , hold on , let's see if we we got enough cord , we we can make some stretch all we took a brief intermission but we back like good crack , crack ain't nothing left .
Speaker 4I was going to say crack ain't nothing left bro , fuck you son Trout over .
Speaker 3Crack over . There you go , there you go . Say that again . What we doing ? Man , we got the one and only Jay Hollins in the house . You know what I'm saying ? Nobody know me . Man , hey , man , that's big CEO for us . Man , that's CEO for us . Man , what we doing ? Huh , I'm just chilling .
Speaker 4Don't ? Nobody know me . I'm chilling . I be in the cut . Don't pay me no attention . Like I said on that video , I said no , pay attention to him , Don't worry about what I do the right way .
Speaker 3The right way , but a moment ago you just shared something like we was asking your son my cousin , you know we asked you know what was it like working with you during this project ? What was it like for you working with your son during this project ?
Speaker 4For me , it's just second nature , because I've never not been there . Aau basketball I was there Middle school basketball . I was there . High school football I was there . You know college football I was there , High school football . I was there , College football , I was there . You know what I'm saying ? Shit Music , I'm here . You know what I mean . I've never not been there . You know what I mean . As far as hell , shit . As him and and and my younger son is concerned , I've never not been there . I mean shit . And even you know my daughter , once we got straight , I've never not been there . I'm , I'm . This is just what I do , and you know his mom would be like you never stop and take time . You know , to pay attention to what you're doing . I'm like man . We just do what we do . You know what I mean . This is how we move , Like with men , with fathers . This is what we do . So it's not . I don't even think of it as nothing special . It's just me doing what I do .
Speaker 3So , with that being said , I got to go back to PCP Moscato With the 8-track check . Let me ask you this how has that mentality ingrained ?
Speaker 1How has that built you to become the artist you've become today ? As far as him , being there .
Speaker 3No , in terms of the work ethic that he instilled in you Because , like he just said , sometimes you know , we just get the move and we just get the work in . We don't necessarily acknowledge the work that we put in , but it's just , we just create and create . How has that process helped you along the way ?
Speaker 1It's not really a thing for me . To be honest , I think it's instilled so much in me that I don't pay attention to it , like it's not a thing . Like when I write I just write , like it's not me . Okay , I'm going to write today . Like , no , that shit , just it come natural . You feel me . Like that's how that shit come to me . So like even even and also I don't how do I put that ? Oh , bro , like it really . It really like . As far as the effects it's had on me , I know it's positive effects , but it's just me being me , I'm doing me , I'm trying to get to where I'm going . Bro , like I was telling him before we were on there , I was telling Julian before we were on there , I was talking to Julian before we got on there . Man bro , this shit is literally in me . Bro , I was an infant sitting next to the fucking 808 , bro .
Speaker 4It was at the big-ass multi-track console . There's video of him sitting on my like big ass multi-track console .
Speaker 4There's video of him sitting on my lap at the multi-track console music blaring and I'm not crying mixing my first independent album and his mom is taking my braids out my head and he's sitting there sticking his arm in my big ass afro and pulling it out . But we're at this giant ass console . And this is before he ever played a sport . You know what I mean ? Rob Markman , that's wild .
Speaker 4Rob Markman , before he ever played a sport , that was music , because that's what I was doing , coming out of my situation and being independent , shout out to Rashem , that's what we were doing . We were really doing that and really , you know , really attacking this indie thing really hard . So he's been groomed for this shit and you know , when I think about it , he was groomed for this shit more than he was ever groomed for athletics . I mean , he just happened to be good at that shit because
Working with Family on Music
Speaker 4he come from that stock of athletes you know me being one of them , you know so but he was more so grown because when he came it was music , everything when he came , yeah , and for me it's really , with this music stuff , it's music or die .
Speaker 1For me , bro , Like , if this music stuff it's music , it's music or die . For me , bro , like , if this shit don't work , kill me , bro . Like I don't want to do nothing , I don't want to do nothing else and I done tried other shit . I know this is what I need to do , this is what I have to do , this is what I want to do , you know . So that's really what just drives me . And again , it's not even . It don't feel like a drive , it feel like I'm just having fun . It don't feel like work .
Speaker 4Well , I always say he has a love for the shit that I never had . And people be like , oh , you never loved this shit . That's how I decided love is a different kind of love , but for me I loved it because of what it took me away from . That was the only reason . You know what I'm saying . Like you know , I was outside , outside . Your pops know me , we from the same block , you know . So we always outside . You know what I mean . Only reason I'm not a you know I'm not a felon is because I got out early and this shit took me out of it . You know what I'm saying . That's the reason why I'm not a felon . You know what I'm saying . That's the reason why I'm not a felon .
Speaker 4Well , a lot of my homies did catch felonies . I didn't catch . Only reason I didn't catch one because we was all doing the same shit . Like I told you , we were all doing the same shit . I didn't catch one because this shit kind of scooped me up and carted me away from that shit . You know what I mean . Rob Markman , wow , get the fuck away from roundhouse and go do that . You know so . So , yeah , I mean I guess it was just . This was just destined for him to do . So I loved it for what it took me away from , though I didn't love it because , oh my God , I love music . I knew I was good at it . I was better than 90% of motherfuckers at it . Right , I love music . I knew I was good at it . I was better than 90% of motherfuckers at it . And so I'm like , okay , let me do this because it keeps me away from that . But he has a genuine love and a passion .
Speaker 1And I don't know why , but it's just something in my body won't let me not do this shit . Like I played football in college , I I literally put I played football in college and I put that shit off , literally just so I could write more songs and sit in my dorm and just like , just I couldn't help it . Like it felt wrong not to do and I don't know why . And I was just like I don't know why . But , bro , obviously , if I like I don't know why , but bro , obviously , if I don't do this shit , I'm going to fuck up everything I touch . So I need to do this . Oh , bro , like . Oh bro , for real .
Speaker 5Do you feel like the longer you did it , the more it kind of came like an infection of like you had to keep doing more of it and more of it ? And you know what I ?
Speaker 1mean , yeah , it was like I would do a song , make a little song on my phone , hear it back . Man , that shit hard . I got to make another one . I got to make another one , yeah . So I could say that , yeah , it was kind of an addiction , but at the same time it was just I love this shit , bro . The niggas say they'll die about their gang and the niggas say I'll die about this music . This is that serious for me , bro .
Speaker 3That needs to be said , though . That's important , because you got a lot of people that have real talent , but they throwing that shit away for nothing .
Speaker 4And that's why I said it . That's why I said listen , these niggas either going to rap or get the fuck out . The way I said because I'm a savage Listen , I don't give a fuck about none of that . Nigga . We making music . Can you rap though ? Body bag , body bag , body bag . Bodies , bodies , bodies bodies , bodies , on some real shit .
Speaker 1Like nigga like listen .
Speaker 4You going like listen , nigga , we're making music . Oh , I'm making music . I'm a savage , I'm a savage . Okay , well then , go outside and be a savage , but over here , nigga , can you ? Rap or not it was also a task for me to understand that you can't be both . It took me a minute for sure Act your ignite .
Speaker 3He tried Talk about that a little bit Talk about what you can talk about .
Speaker 1You feel me we was . You feel me , Skeezer here . If y'all ain't know , we was outside acting the ass , for sure , but I was dropping like shit . He was involved with my first drop when I was out here acting the ass , and my dad was . He was involved with my first drop , Juke , and you feel me , the love was lit . We was always outside . People recognize us . We had parties Like drunk girls is literally stopping in their tracks Like bitch . You was just stumbling all across the room , Bitch , standing straight up . Oh my God , 40 Mile Mexico .
Speaker 2Like it was lit .
Speaker 1But like it really felt like a race to am I going to go to jail first or am I going to blow up first , or is something bad going to happen first ? It just felt like nigga , either this shit going to blow up in our face or I'm going to blow up with this music . That's how it felt . It just felt like which one was going to happen first . It was a constant feeling of that , for sure . I remember having a conversation with Lito and asking him or telling him gang , this shit , feel like it's either we gonna blow or this shit gonna go bad .
Speaker 4Like bro , like and we had told him when we put this video out . I said , hey , understand , you're not gonna know most people , but now everybody's gonna know you and you have to be careful how you move . You know what I'm saying . And because that's the one thing , like and like you know , his mom was like , oh my God , you're paranoid and tell him not , right , and I am , and tell him not , you know what I mean . And we've been in those instances where I'm not you see what I'm saying . So I've always told him and then you know , unfortunately , things happen this , that and the other . But he bounced back and he skated through it and and now we're here and purple heart tape is out . Man , did I say purple heart ?
Speaker 3tape was out . Purple Heart Tape is out . Man , make sure y'all go stream Purple Heart Tape by PVE , messico or all streaming services . But let me ask you , unc , from an executive producer standpoint and even just being in music like , you've seen artists come and go a lot . You've seen artists come and go a lot . You've seen artists come and go what made , aside from this being your son because I know this right , I know your answer to this , but I want to ask you this on this platform , because I need the people to hear this what made you see some ? What did you see different in a PBE Mexico that you didn't see in everybody else ?
Speaker 4um , besides him being my son , cause I on my answer , like , first of all , he's my son , right , but he can really fucking rap . And if he couldn't rap , he knows I'd be like , yeah , son , we probably going to find something else for you , bro on .
Speaker 1God , I used to show him my old shit .
Speaker 4Get your ass back on the feet .
Speaker 1No , for real . I used to show him I used to like when I was dropping shit on SoundCloud my senior year and shit , I had just started playing around with the shit and like trying to like release it to people and release it on the platform . Like I would show that shit to him . He'd be like keep going , but he wasn't fucking with that shit for sure he wouldn't tell me stop . He'd be like keep going .
Speaker 4And then one day , I said it wasn't bad , but it wasn't good either you like I want to see what it's going like yeah , and I know we had did some songs .
Speaker 1He , he had , finally , like you feel me , we did some shit with Grind King , but I think what it was for him is my song From the Heart , and that's when he was like , oh shit , like nah , like nigga , you got to keep doing that . That was before my niggas joint actually .
Speaker 4Oh , it was . Yeah , um bro , I was like I like this because now it's introspective , it's intelligible , you're really speaking , you know . And for me because my thing is , you know , when you're young you want to do what's hip and what's hot . And I'm listening to what he's doing I'm like nigga , you sound like everything that's already out there . Like can't do nothing with this because , like it's like fucking 300,000 motherfuckers doing what you do right now , right , and that's going to be like trying to ice skate uphill .
Speaker 4It ain't going to happen , right right you know what I mean , it ain't going to happen . So there's nothing unique or different about you , like you're dimming your light . So then you know , you stepped into . I heard the juke joint . I was like okay , that's different . But then , even then , everything I kind of heard after that . I was like man , I can take it or leave it . Take it or leave it , take it or leave it right , fast forward .
Speaker 4Long story short . You know we end up here sending beats A&R shit and we're here . But I can honestly say I don't think the tape was probably going this direction . But me , knowing what I know and seeing what I I've seen , I needed to steer it a certain way . You know so , um , what it was like for me working with him and it's just like what made me work . He's just , he dope , the motherfucker can rap man and I'm , I'm , I'm a bars guy . I don't care if you got to explain it to me and be like , oh yeah , you know , in this day and age it's like this , I don't care .
Speaker 3Man say that shit , bro . Music speaks for itself .
Speaker 5I don't care Face .
Speaker 4The fact you had to do that . You had to do all that . I don't care , but this brought me .
Speaker 3what I was trying to say was I , but this brought me what I was trying to say was no , I get that , I get that . So let's talk about . I feel like we always kind of speak upon the positive moments that kind of come along with making an album . What were the challenges you had to overcome as an artist in getting this mixtape to 412 ? April 12th
The Journey from Sports to Music
Speaker 3, the release date .
Speaker 1I had never been produced before , and it was a hard thing for me because I was getting skeletons of beats and I was damn near like lashing the fuck out cop . Like bro , what the fuck did y'all just send me , bro ? What the fuck is this shit , bro , y'all want me to rap on this ? And my dad was like bro , you're about to be produced , bro , you just lay the fuck , lay the lay the fucking vocals . And and I'm like bro , what am I supposed to do to this ? Bro ?
Speaker 1The first record was Spin , that's track three . Yeah , they sent me , and actually that wasn't a Skeleton beat . I actually just didn't like that beat at first . I'm keeping it a buck . It wasn't that I didn't like it , I was just like why y'all get this shit to me ? Like what the fuck , bro ? So we , they sent me that and my dad was just like man , bro , be you , just rap . Who gives a fuck about the beat ? Just rap on the beat , bro , be you , though . Like , talk about what you want to talk about . And Spin was born , bro . So it was just little shit like that beats .
Speaker 1That I didn't , I wasn't really fucking with at first . Like , just shit , like that like , because , um , you know like , and we would really get into it . He , bro , like it would been times like bro , why the fuck you always got to fight me on everything ? Like . He would say that , like bro , just do it like whenever I ever steered you wrong . And I'm just sitting there like bro , this shit , what the fuck is this ? Oh bro , like I'm bad as hell . Like bro , what is this shit bro ? And it just worked . It ended up working , like , even after I laid the vocals I was like damn , I like this shit . Oh bro , like . Oh bro , I kind of like this shit . Oh bro , like .
Speaker 1So it was just a learning curve for me being in a more professional space with my music and just moving into that and being comfortable in that space and not really just going with shit . You feel me , and if we do it and we don't like it , then well , you feel me , we could be content with that . But there's no point in not fucking trying something . You know , there's no point in being like well , nah , nah , just fuck . That's what I learned . You feel me , even if I don't like some shit , when I get it I'm going to rap on it . I might like it when I'm done .
Speaker 5Would you say it gave you a greater appreciation for just trusting the process in that kind of way .
Speaker 1Yeah , it also gave me a greater appreciation of trusting who I'm working with and also a different appreciation for producers , because to me it was just you feel me Beats all the way , done you just rap on it , right ? I didn't know all that shit went into it , so I was definitely like it was definitely like . It was definitely like you feel me , like we , just it , it would . It just opened my eyes to what they go through . You feel me with other , with other artists , and just and one I didn't want to be that guy and then two like I , kind of I'm like , all well , let me just learn then . Let me shut the fuck up and learn Instead of giving my opinion .
Speaker 4Shutting the fuck up is a skill . Oh , it is a skill . Say it again . Shutting the fuck up is a skill . Say it again that a lot of people do not have . They will fight you tooth and nail about nothing , hey man .
Speaker 3The toothpick belong in the sandwich , huh , then you cut it in half . Man , you know what Peanut butter is better than a cheeseburger Like ? Why are we talking about this , you ?
Speaker 4tell them man , I like waffles , so you hate pancakes . This nigga don't like chicken tenders . What the fuck . You don't like dinner , nigga Nah shutting the fuck up is definitely a skill man , and the thing is people is like yo , you got to protect him , you got to protect him . And for me , 90% of protection is prevention . If you can't listen , I can't help you . How the fuck am I supposed to protect you if you won't even fucking listen ?
Speaker 1There was a point where he was like , man , I'm not gonna keep doing this shit with you , bro . And I was like , yeah , you right , let me get my shit together .
Speaker 1He's like you gonna fight me on everything , bro , I'm going to just stop fucking with you . I'm literally , and I was like , and then and it was like when I really sat down and thought about it I'm like I'll be fighting this nigga about this shit , and then I end up doing it anyway . So what the fuck am I fighting him for ? And then I end up liking it , and even if I don't , it fucking works . So you feel me Like . So like you feel me , he's never steered me in the wrong direction .
Speaker 5My shit always works , sometimes that's how you get it 60% of the time . It works every time , bro , I promise you .
Speaker 3But let me ask you this right , I know you mentioned Spam . What was another song on the Purple Heart tape that going into it ? You was like man . What was another song on the Purple Heart tape that going into it ? You was like man . What the fuck is this , bro ?
Speaker 1But when it came out , you was like hey , that shit kind of tough .
Speaker 3Rules are the rules . I fuck with that one too . That was my second favorite , remember we fought about the beat .
Speaker 4I said you got to do it to this beat . Why this nigga go through five other beats just to come back to that one ? Because I said no , this is the beat , no , I'm in it . And then Ron like no , no , let him listen . I'm like no , fuck that , because it's this one , you know what I'm saying . And he's like bleh , I'm like dog , I'm like dog .

Speaker 3There's a story behind it . Hey , let's get the story . Man , that's what I'm saying for sure . Hey , y'all heard it here . The Family Business Podcast .
Speaker 1What we doing .
Speaker 3PBE Mexico .

Yeah , that's one , it's going to go on there . So at the time when I made this , I was 18 .

Speaker 1I got off the phone , bro I swear to God I didn't write shit down , bro I turned on BandLab and found that beat , like that was like literally one of the first beats I had pulled up , and I literally spoke Like that was it ? Like that's why the flow on there is so like fast and like I'm fitting so many words , like I'm fitting every like so many words , like because I'm really trying , like I'm really pissed , like this is , like this could be a text message
Challenges of the Production Process
Speaker 1I send back to the bitch , like oh bro . But instead I was like you know , fuck this bitch , I'm just going to make us home , oh bro , so that If I'm always the problem , let me go , so I can't hold you back . Go fuck them Like for real . Yeah , bro , like that shit , that shit , really like . That was one song that really I don't know if it came from the heart or from the motherfucking fire of the insides of my body , because I was mad as fuck boy .
Speaker 1Oh , of the insides of my body because I was mad as fuck boy . Oh , mad as fuck Shreddy . I was heated . I literally grabbed the mic . I'm yeah , like that . Was you stay If I show y'all the original recording , bro , like of me on BandLab , I sound mad Singing that shit .
Speaker 3We don't listen to that all the time .
Speaker 2Since we talking about women right .
Speaker 3Since we talking about women , right , Since we talking about women , I ain't going to lie , bro . You got one joint on here that had me in a chokehold , bro , Like when I heard this shit , I was like you know what I might have to send this to about three bitches . Man , Excuse me .
Speaker 1I got to send this .
Speaker 3We only call you bitches because we don't know you individually . I got to send this to somebody like girl , you know what I'm saying . You know the clips just happened too . You feel me , you know what I'm saying . You got to put it on a little bit , but when I heard Spell , bro , spell , yeah , that shit's fire , yeah , that shit's fire . Like I feel like Spell is one of the ones that's just like I'm like bro man , look man , I don't know this man , but I really , I really like the R&B shit man , I be liking that . You know what I'm saying . Like , let me talk to the late . Like . So for me it was dope to A see that side of you on a record , but to hear like I felt like that was one of your records on this right . I felt like that was one of your records on this right , because I felt like Purple Heart Tape was a fine balance of you two connecting , like father and son really coming head to head , like Like it's not a clash but a collaboration .
Speaker 2You know what ?
Speaker 3I'm saying but I felt like Spell was one of your records . Well , it was . I say man I say he put that elbow seasoning in this motherfucker .
Speaker 1That stemmed from like you feel me , like not all my songs are completely like . I pull stuff from like real experiences and then , you know , throw some sauce on it . Maybe , maybe not . Maybe my experience is real enough to the point where I'm just saying what the fuck happened and it's relatable , like it's really happened to a lot of people . But with that one it was really like it's really about when you find someone you fucking with , they really fuck with you and y'all both want it but y'all both kind of doing y'all thing you know and that's why you running , you running , I'm running too , you hunting for something new .
Speaker 3I don't be running for real , but like I focus . Yeah , but like you be doing like self-sabotage , bro , I'm talking about like I don't be running , like physically , but like I be running but the self-sabotage is real , bro , I'm the king of it , you would have the perfect motherfucker in front of you and you just doing shit .
Speaker 1I tell you and you know damn well you would drop all this shit for that person , but you just I don't know .
Speaker 3That's why , when I heard it , I said , man , I'm going to send it to about three of them . Not one , because that's a part of self-sabotage right , I love how you just flipped that shit .
Speaker 4That was crazy .
Speaker 1That nigga said if I don't send it to all three of them , that would be self-sabotage .
Speaker 3Self-sabotage , yeah , you know what I'm saying .
Speaker 1Look , it's all in the eye of the beholder , but that song Spell .
Speaker 3You feel me , me , that song spell really put a female in that spell on bro , that's why I feel like , what if you got like multiple , that got you in that spell right , like I've been there ?
Speaker 1I'm like damn , like she got me this . I've been there , but I wasn't there when I made that song . I definitely wasn't there when I made that song . It was more about me , like I mean about the both of us . Like you feel me Like , just because there was a time where , like we , it was like what the fuck are we doing ? Like we both like to shit out each other , or love to shit out each other , whatever it may be . Right now we don't know , it's being vocalized , but like what the fuck is we doing ? What are we doing .
Speaker 1At the end it'll be . I would try to not talk to her and shit like that . I'd just ignore her two weeks Still coming back Text her ass and she just . You , feel me , I didn't just ignore her .
Speaker 3So I'm like damn okay , bro , what was the text back At the two weeks ? What was it ?
Speaker 1I ? I don't even remember , it was probably some bullshit .
Speaker 3I think I left my socks at your house . No , no , it wasn't even that I left my earring back .
Speaker 1I'm probably on some . I got a lot of shit going on right now . You know the trench is going crazy right now . I got to keep my head on the sweat boy . That's real , but it really do be like that . I ain't bullshit , but it's like . You feel me . Girls don't really be Understanding that shit . Like it be shit as simple as like I'm not finna be texting you all day Cause I , if I , when I go outside , I'm not finna be on my phone .
Speaker 3And that's real shit .
Speaker 2I gotta , I gotta be , on peace , ready like Yo ass .
Speaker 1Think I'm finna , come home and it's going to be what it is I'm going to come home and put that you know what I'm saying . I'm going to go like .
Speaker 3So we're going to bring . I want to ask what was your favorite record on this we ?
Speaker 5were talking about this before y'all came in . Uh-oh yeah , somebody , save Me , was my favorite . It was the last record on this . We were talking about this before y'all came in . Uh-oh yeah , somebody , save Me , was my favorite . It was the last record on the project .
Speaker 3I was trying to avoid it that nigga had me crying at the job today , bro , bro , I swear to you , bro , that shit I texted that nigga . I said man , you got me crying .
Speaker 2He showed it .
Speaker 1He said you lucky , I'm working by myself right now , bro .
Speaker 3I'm sitting there like this is his dick man Bro . But when he said that he inspired his shit at the job , Bro .
Speaker 5he said he's like sometimes you got to allow yourself to die to turn into the person that you really need to be . I'm paraphrasing but it's like that shit hit bro , that shit hit crazy .
Speaker 1Yeah , bro , for that . I wanted that to feel like a , even if it's not . I made a moment , uh , uh , like just a moment of I'm here , now I understand , I get it and now moving forward , you feel me , or whether it be the purple heart tape , too , or some another project that I might name it something different . You know I'm I'm juggling with that in my head right now , but where now we get the me ? That's now in this new space , but I'm still me , you know Still , you , still , me , still .
Speaker 3Messico .
Speaker 1Yeah , still Messi .
Speaker 3Messi from .
Speaker 1RP .
Speaker 3Let him know . Let him know , man you better let him know .
Speaker 1Still , messi from RP Shreddy , the same nigga that went to sand , but just in a different space , navigating adulthood and trying to move away from the environment . I was exposed to and drawn towards that shit , always going to be a part of me . I still got niggas in that shit right now , like you feel me and it's love , but it's just me navigating , like you know , like me , me , me , like my heart was in that shit , bro , like it damn near still is . Like a lot of niggas that , like he , be trying to tell me oh , you can't give a fuck . You Tell me how you can't give a fuck . You might possibly tell me , man , you got to let that shit down , you can't give a fuck , I cannot give a fuck .
Speaker 1Gang , like these are the same niggas . I was right next to it's not like I was a nigga they protected , bro , I was right next to these niggas doing all the same shit . So it's like it's different . My love is different , bro , you feel me . So I'm still me for sure , and it's just finding that balance for me For real , for real and not doing nothing stupid , being legit about the shit that I do , you know , like just as far as getting a full way Shit like that , like you know going about shit the right way .
Speaker 3So let me ask you this , right Now that Purple Heart Tape is out right , what are some of the things that you're looking forward to in the rollout of this project ?
Speaker 1I don't even know what the fuck's happening right now . To be honest , I know I got you know . I know there's some interviews coming . I know there's the release party . I'm fucking lit for that .
Speaker 3I'm super turned single Demario , we at watcher nightclub . By the time this come out , this probably may have happened already , but we turnt that bitch up . We gonna speak it into existence .
Speaker 1We turnt that bitch up . It was those shaking ass on the table . Bitches getting naked .
Speaker 2Shaking ass outside , not looking both ways . My bro was mad and shit because my eyes wanted on .
Speaker 1It was lit , bro , he said , because my eyes were on .
Speaker 3I was on Pulaski dancing with a sombrero .
Speaker 1Nigga , it was the floor , it was a slipper slide of tequila . It was lit . Nigga , motherfuckers had sombreros on .
Speaker 3I'm talking about sombreros and Timbaland boots .
Speaker 5Y'all choosing the fucking background and shit Rose and .
Speaker 3Timbaland boots . Y'all choosing the fucking background and shit . But I want to say this to you , man you not like a younger cousin to me at this point .
Speaker 1He was like that Y'all got to understand how this happened for me . First of all , when he put me with him , I was still the wild nigga I'm talking about . I was still just like this nigga would call me and I'd be with ski walking down the block .
Speaker 3Just me like hey man , y'all cool right y'all good , what's going on ?
Speaker 1we we not in business , we outside like word for word .
Speaker 5I'm not laughing y'all the only ones .
Speaker 3I'm so serious that happened Word for word .
Speaker 1I believe it . When he called us , we was on .
Speaker 2Lawrence and .
Speaker 1Pulaski In the motherfucking corner , still getting blunts , and we was finna , leave With some bitches , and this is like 2021 . We were fucking turnt , don't even know what . Like nigga , we don't give a fuck About food . We trying to get fired and nail some shit and be outside and cause havoc . It was crazy .
Speaker 1He really what I don't talk about is TK played a really big role in just keeping me , even if he couldn't keep me out the way , just making sure he put some shit in my ear . That made me think twice . You feel me Just like now . I got something to think about . Now , when I go do this dumb ass shit , now I'm finna , sit at the crib and think about what this nigga told me . Like , fuck bro , like , so he , he , he played a big role in that and just trying to trying to trying to tug me this way and it worked , because he's not a necessarily an elder , you feel me ? To me that's just because I don't see him as an authority figure . I see him like a brother , so hearing it from someone like that , it hit home a little different .
Speaker 3Feel me and I got to say that like Stepping up to that plate . Right , like Niggas don't realize this , right , I'm fresh out of college , bro , working a job at CPS . Nigga , the government dropped Stimulus , they just dropping stimulus packages bro , stimulus came out around that time give me checks , mama you claimed me all your taxes and I never got one .
Speaker 1I'm so mad , but it's okay , I love you .
Speaker 3I love you , ma bro , you gotta think like I'm sitting back . I'm like , bro , I got cuz home , you feel me and I'm like I can take this whole check and just do some wild shit with it , bro , and I'm just like . I'm like , nah , bro , that nigga could really rap . And for me it was just this thing of like , bro , this is going to help them niggas get out the way . I just I'm like they need some shit to do that's going to keep them from that . You know what I'm saying Most definitely .
Speaker 3Now , when they are
Favorite Tracks and Song Stories
Speaker 3outside doing that nigga , at least they got some music to play , like nigga ? Listen to this . This is what I'm on now .
Speaker 5But even like you said , it gave him something to think twice about .
Speaker 3But you know something , bro , like I'm going to be honest , you can have that mentality , but it don't always work . So to see , like your dad was saying earlier , nigga , you was coachable , you know what I'm saying For sure . I can't like bro . I can't take credit for you being coachable . You see what I'm saying . Like that's you and a part of you . Like that's in your wiring as a man .
Speaker 1I definitely do a good job listening . I also do a good job of smiling and nodding and doing whatever the fuck I was going to do anyway that part .
Speaker 1There was a lot of that at first , but really for the majority of it , and it just took for me to want to do better . You feel me to be better ? So , while everybody was in my ear , I was still doing what I was doing , but that shit was always in my head , so it was just a matter of when . To be honest and it's not like I wasn't taking heed , it was just I was around , what I was around and I really didn't see no way out at the time . You know , that's kind of like for real . For real , it's crazy to me that I'm 21 and talking right now like to y'all , I think , on Somebody Save Me me . I said I'm 21 . I ain't think I make it past when I graduate . I didn't , bro , and after I graduated it just got worse . So I was it really was living life like it , like it wasn't no tomorrow , nigga , we finna do it all today and if we wake up tomorrow we gonna do it again , bro , like , like . That's just . It was a lot of that really . So once I like once life slowed down a little bit and I got a chance to see what there was outside of Chicago and outside of my environment , that's when it hit Like I got to live in a place where I didn't have to look over my shoulder for a little bit and I was like , damn , that's nice .
Speaker 1How do I get here on my own ? What the hell ? How do I make this my life ? How do I get the fuck away from all this extra shit ? Because I don't like the extra noise , bro , and also , with me growing up , I used to be the nigga in the mix .
Speaker 1I'm always posting , bro . It's a fucking task to do that shit now . And I actually have to do it now because I'm doing music like I hate posting , I hate Instagram , I hate . I don't even have Snapchat on my phone anymore . Um , I don't use Twitter like this is like for real , for real . If it was up to me , if I didn't have to be in these people's face to do music , I wouldn't . But you know , come with the territory , come with the territory , and it's fun when you do it , but it's just as far as like , I know it's a lot of extra noise that come with it , and goofy motherfuckers and stupid shit . That part , yeah , you know , but it's all you feel me , if that shit ain't happening for you , bro , you should probably quit because you're not doing it right . That's what I had to learn , that part right . That's what .
Speaker 2I had to learn that part .
Speaker 1That part , motherfuckers , talking about you every second of the day . You doing something right .
Speaker 5If you ain't got haters , you ain't popping .
Speaker 1Nigga .
Speaker 3And what that man said . Man is like . I just want to say this to you before we get on out of here , bro , like you , I this is a moment for me to give you your roses Like you know , I'm fortunate enough to sit by my brother and do this you know what I'm saying To be able to , you know , get out here and really , like we walk around , you know , interviewing different artists and different creatives , and they respect the fields and whatnot . Man , but this one is like real different for a variety of reasons , bro , and you , just being you , like you don't realize how you've inspired me to just continue doing music Like , especially from an executive angle , because he would tell you in a heartbeat , bro , like between him and me , like , bro , we was like that was so far removed from what we were really like our trajectory and what was on our minds , and it was like you didn't allow that for us .
Speaker 3You was like nah , nigga , I'm here , y'all niggas got to help me . End of story . I don't care . Like I'm here , I'm doing this and the fact that it's like you didn't give us a choice , and sometimes life is like that .
Speaker 1You know what I mean Nigga y'all going to help , bro , Because this is what I'm going to do Either y'all going to watch me do it by myself and crash and burn , or y'all going to help me .
Speaker 1Bro , because I'm going to do this game , even if it blows up in my face . I'll be content because at least I tried . And that was my point with that shit . It was like I said to my dad when we had a conversation , when I was like fuck football , I'm not doing this . We went talking for a little bit . When we finally sat down I told him . I said this shit is more important than breathing for me . I will hold my breath if you don't help me , bro .
Speaker 3Like , bro , like basically , you know , I believe this nigga .
Speaker 1Like my nigga , like this is what the fuck I'm about to do bro .
Speaker 3Like my nigga , like this is what the fuck I'm about to do , bro ? But I say that because a lot of I feel like this is what needs to take place . You know , in the world , like to the older generation , bro , y'all can't be afraid to receive the inspiration from the younger generation , but you also can't be afraid to help . You know , I'm saying , like bro , take us where you was once our age . You feel me , and I think that's one of the things , I think that's the reason why this works well , you know , on this side with us , because I think , unc , you know both of them . They do , they do a real phenomenal job of like bro , we was all aged before we get it .
Speaker 3You know what I'm saying . Like boom , we're going to make sure this is . You know what I'm saying . And that's just who they are as men outside of this shit . So it's been a real beautiful journey , bro , just watching you get to Purple Heart Tape . You know what I'm saying , and beyond it , because just seeing like bro , you went from being again still the same person , mind you , right , Don't ?
Speaker 1get it fucked up , man .
Speaker 3Y'all got to understand bro , like bro was getting my car and played music , from the moment I pick him up to the moment I drop him off .
Speaker 1Nigga , I'm talking about we coming from up north up north , up north up the tippy top of the map we could go out south .
Speaker 5We could go out south . We could go by Mariola All the way fucking down .
Speaker 3We could go anywhere , bro . And he's playing new music , always new .
Speaker 1Even if I didn't have some shit recorded . Bro , I'm rapping him some shit .
Speaker 5How many songs you got right now Just smashed .
Speaker 1Over 300 , bro .
Speaker 2Okay , literally Way more than 300 . How ?
Speaker 3much did he just what ?
Speaker 1Probably more than that I done lost some shit Like I got , like nigga I had like four , bro .
Speaker 3Come on , man , and mind you , purple Heart Tape is only like 13 .
Speaker 1No , exactly I lost four phones this past summer , bro , this past summer was crazy . It's a conversation for off air .
Speaker 3We'll pray on that . We're going to talk about that . Nah , don't pray on this over and out . It's like some drink with a blackberry type shit .
Speaker 1Bro , my nigga , I was wilding the fuck out , bro . I lost my shit on 4th of July . Got a new one . Lost that bitch Bro . I think I lost one . The phone I had on 4th of July that I lost was a new phone because I had lost it .
Speaker 3That's funny because I seen you on the 4th yeah you did .
Speaker 1Yeah , how the fuck did you Nigga ? I was in Rogers Park on the 4th .
Speaker 3How Y'all came . Y'all pulled up on the floor Because we had that conversation , Me and him . Nah , you went up Because that was around the time . Oh shit , yeah , I'm telling you , bro .
Speaker 1I remember like y'all see me , I be high as hell .
Speaker 3But my memory be sharp , nigga .
Speaker 1Nah , nah , my memory wasn't sharp gang . I was a different type of high , that's something .
Speaker 3Hey , nah , bro , I'm trying to tell you , man , the gas is real .
Speaker 3Nah , I feel that , nah , I feel that I'm already on it Like 30 days , nigga 40 days 40 nights Like I was fried bro , but you know all that being said , though , like all jokes aside , because it's like we here , bro , for sure you know what I'm saying and it's like you got to know how this shit feel , bro , like I'm sitting back . I'm looking at Charles man , bro , like real shit . I'm sitting here looking at you and Ski as man man and that shit , just that move , nigga . Because it's like , bro , it's like like y'all got hey , bro , it's like that moment . Like the other day I thought about this shit when you was in the car with me . I'm like man bro driving a Walmart , nigga , I was jumping in his shit and he was teaching me how to drive at a point in time . You know what I'm saying and I'm like in my mind , I'm like , damn , this is a full circle moment .
Speaker 3I have to ask that shit till I learn . And I'm sitting back like I'm sitting back , like you gotta , I'm watching this nigga drive . It's like I'm watching y'all become men . You see what I'm saying . So it's like it's dope , but it's also just a great feeling because I feel like our youth is in good hands , man , like with y'all being the leader I ain't gonna lie , bro , it's not .
Speaker 1But we we straight though over here , but these niggas out here , fucked up .
Speaker 3I can't speak for everybody , I'm speaking for . Hey , I can only speak for the block .
Speaker 5We , the block leaders , we can only speak for the block .
Speaker 2We got all stayed on this side , you know it's family business over here , so it's different .
Speaker 3You know what I'm saying , because we really move with that mentality and it's like it . I I don't expect everybody to understand it at this point and I was saying it's not for everybody to understand that part . You know what I'm saying and sometimes some of this ain't even for us to understand . I'll be like nigga , I don't get the weird energy you're breaking towards me and I'm not gonna figure it out . I'm gonna let you figure that shit out .
Speaker 3I'm about to go get this bag . You know what I'm saying . And I gotta tell you , man , like
Growth and Leaving the Streets Behind
Speaker 3it's a lot of lessons to be learned in just listening to this project . I'm looking forward .
Speaker 1And I feel like when you really take a deep dive into the project and listen , you will hear a young man that didn't get it yet , but he's getting it .
Speaker 3Because you aged through the project .
Speaker 1I really did , bro . There's a song where I literally said I'm 20 now . I'm 20 now I got some little money on me or some shit like that game . But I heard that shit . I'm like damn . I've been making this shit since I was like this is a nigga , I'm 21 . Like , bro , like again , like what's going on ? I made when I was 18 , bro , like you're hearing me at different stages in my life , you feel me and just working up to it . And the last song on that project is the most recent one I recorded and the most recent one I wrote as far as the shit that's on the tape . So I feel like people really got the full story or as far as it's gone .
Speaker 1You know the story isn't over . I'm still here .
Speaker 3That part .
Speaker 1Oh bro .
Speaker 3And we look forward to watching you just continue to grow . You know what I'm saying . Continuing to just make this art . You feel me . Continue feeding these people , bro . Continue being the you that you are . Ski hey man , you know I hey cuz man , you family man .
Speaker 2You feel me Ain't no words gotta be explained .
Speaker 3We know it . There it is man and it's like man . I just be happy to see this nigga man . I swear I just be happy to see you .
Speaker 1Oh , bro , it was like motherfuckers , was like man , who's Bobby , bobby ? You always talking about a Bobby . Oh , bobby , blah , bobby , blah , blah .
Speaker 3I'm trying to tell y'all . And then it was just like .
Speaker 1And then it was to the point where I'm like , all right , bro , when y'all ain't feeling focused , well , him every time y'all see me .
Speaker 3The funny part is I was 10 years old when I realized Bobby and Ski is the same person For real Nigga . I was calling this nigga . I swear I thought this nigga was just Bobby . Like I was like , all right .
Speaker 1That was like oh , that's no , we do have two Skis . Shout out , Maseki , Yo bro .
Speaker 3See , that's who I thought was . So that's why I ? Was like this nigga in the room , Bro .
Speaker 1We both called him Skeet . We don't even differentiate . Y'all know what the fuck I'm trying to say .
Speaker 3So now we know . You know what I'm saying .
