In this episode of Da E.D.I.T Podcast, Weso is back from Ramadan and we jump right into catching up before getting into some real conversations. We react to LaRussell’s recent comments that sparked controversy, tap into the realities of the single dating scene in Atlanta, and break down the TSA situation during the government shutdown and how it’s been impacting travel, especially at Atlanta’s airport. We also get into new music, including Mike WiLL Made-It’s latest compilation project, along with plenty of honest takes, laughs, and classic Da E.D.I.T banter throughout.

Yeah, you missed why did Soldier come when I wasn't there?

SPEAKER_12

That sounds like a good time. You and Soldier, boy. Soldier, you need to, you need well, you know what? It's not even soldier's fault, bruh. I'm not gonna say who fault it is.

SPEAKER_09

SPEAKER_09

Gil is your fault, not blaming. But uh, but no, probably is, but um that's not the point, though. Love you, Gil. Um, yeah, bruh. I've been wanting to do some content with Soldier for a very long time. So hopefully we catch him at birthday.

SPEAKER_11

But you wouldn't have caught him no way if you were known anyway, because you was, you know, saying Ramadan. I know. You see what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_09

I just wish he would have came like this week. Yeah, that would have been dope. I got some. Around your schedule. Around my schedule. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly. Okay. You know, he's the first rapper. So look, there's a lot of people that do the whole, ha ha, first rapper this, first rapper that. He really is, and to me, this matters. To y'all, y'all probably won't care. But he's the first rapper to co-sign the weekend. He was riding around in Beverly Hills listening to the trilogy when nobody knew. What year was it? This was like 2009, 2010. I was definitely on him. This was like super early then, then it was probably before that then. This was like, he was the first rapper. Oh, first rapper. Okay, gotcha. He probably heard the weekend before Drake did. And Drake is from the same area as the weekend. Soldier Boy is the GOAT. Not just his.

SPEAKER_11

Nah, that's a really hot take you just said. I'm not sure if I'm gonna let that one fly now.

SPEAKER_09

That man is the one fly everything. And we're gonna give him his flowers at birthday bags.

SPEAKER_12

Soldier Boy is the first rapper to let me shoot him.

SPEAKER_09

That's a fact. Soldier Boy is the first rapper to do fashion pull-up.

SPEAKER_12

Are you manifesting it?

SPEAKER_09

Absolutely. Birthday bash 2026.

SPEAKER_12

Oh, that uh walkway, the uh the runway? Oh yeah. I'm telling you, bro, if I if I would have been at Soldier that day, I wouldn't even, I wouldn't even I wouldn't even be at the like where I'm at right now. Like I'd like me and Soldier would be putting in work. Alright, let's get to the music though.

SPEAKER_09

Okay, uh, so I got two. I got um, I got one I've been waiting to play for y'all. This is a new young artist, and I I want to show y'all the promo after I show you a minute of the song. So there's a new artist? There's a new artist. His name is That Boy AJ. His promo game on social media is amazing. Uh he's I I'm assuming he's a baller. So he uses a lot of promo around music, I mean about basketball and and references and all that. So this record call is called Sixth Man of the Year. Listen to what my man's saying.

SPEAKER_11

Is it too loud or y'all do?

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_09

This boy from Detroit. This boy's from Detroit. Sounds like he's from Detroit. But listen though, he's not from Retro. Rewind rewind a little bit, right? Listen to the line he's about to say. It's kind of trifling, but you'll understand it. Is that pistol in my head? Pistol while I'm eating RRP to P and B rock.

SPEAKER_11

Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_09

Oh my god. That's kind of messed up, but that damn. Didn't you you understand that? He's a pistol while I'm eating RRP to P and B rock.

SPEAKER_09

This man uh that boy AJ.

SPEAKER_11

SPEAKER_12

Is he from Detroit though?

SPEAKER_09

SPEAKER_09

And it's very on brand. I'm assuming he's a former baller or he likes playing basketball. So, artists, when you're making music and when you're making promos and all that, make it align with your brand.

SPEAKER_11

So turn it and then unscrew it there.

SPEAKER_09

Turn it.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, unscrew it there and then turn it. So you won't unloosen the tilt. Whoa, pause. Yeah, yeah. And then turn it towards you. There you go. And then lock it back up. Teach him we're gonna go. There we go. You know what I'm saying? But yeah. You're back in the city, gotta be comfortable.

SPEAKER_09

I'm assuming he's from Detroit.

SPEAKER_12

There, there's a lot of untapped classic records or untapped anthems that like we could start sampling those.

SPEAKER_11

Somebody sample uh like bruh, there's a lot. Yeah. There's a lot. Let's be very clear. We don't gotta keep going early 2000s and 90s for samples.

SPEAKER_12

Right, right, right, right, right.

SPEAKER_09

Which I love, but we we we burnt them out.

SPEAKER_12

Gotcha. You know what never nobody ever did before? So I'll be giving people ideas on here. Go ahead. Go ahead. Artists has never sampled their self.

SPEAKER_09

No, somebody did, but we're not gonna say who it was. Why not? Well, we can't say. All right, Tori Lane's did. Tory Lane sampled himself. He sampled Say It.

SPEAKER_11

Oh sampled it.

SPEAKER_09

Uh it's called uh Saved It.

SPEAKER_11

Wow. That's the only one. But but that ain't the same though. Because I guess what you're saying is an artist that had like an old old popping song. No, he's just saying in general, no problem. And then he just sampled. No, but I would I would like let's say like Usher sample one of his things from you know what I'm saying? Like you know, that's that'd be crazy. I'm not gonna lie, like for a new song today.

SPEAKER_09

That'd be fire, actually. You see what I'm saying? That'd be fire. Like, imagine if he sampled made a whole album sampling confessions.

SPEAKER_11

Exactly. Well, my butt that'd be aggressive, but I mean like if you just took if if if if you just took like a hot song that our artists had, yeah, you know what I'm saying, 10, 15, 20 years later, you sample your same. Okay, I see what you're saying.

SPEAKER_12

But I I mean this he didn't sample.

SPEAKER_11

You go clear it, obviously. Yeah, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_12

Let's be very clear. What was you at the Blitz when sexy was there in Usher? Yeah, bro.

SPEAKER_09

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, with yeah. How did that go? Bro, that was crazy. Bro, he has this one song, I and I wish I could leak it, but like I got this uh video footage of Usher um premiering some of his songs or whatever for us, and he had sampled Get It Shoddy from Lloyd. Oh my god, it was so crazy!

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, you know you're not supposed to say that, right? You weren't supposed to say that, but it's cool though.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, oh my god. That's crazy that you remember that. We didn't sign any. They took us to some random barn outside of Atlanta, like 45 minutes outside of the city. And we pull up in all these school buses. We get inside, and sexy wasn't even the biggest, so she's just sitting in the chairs, like lawn chairs with us, and they just randomly pop out Usher, Jermaine Dupree, LA Reed, Larry Jackson, like all of these big people.

SPEAKER_09

Um because we gotta talk about LaRussell, bro.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, let's talk about that right now. Talk about that right now. What's what about what did he say, bro?

SPEAKER_09

LaRussell got a new record called Heaven Sent. And he was basically saying a bunch of people were heaven sent. Let me give you a list of people that he said was heaven sent. Kanye West was heaven sent, not too crazy.

SPEAKER_11

But you gotta give the context that he was giving it. No, I'm gonna get to that.

SPEAKER_09

I'm gonna get to that. He said Kanye West was heaven sent, not too bad. He said Martin Luther King was having sent. You're right on. That's a fact.

SPEAKER_11

That's a fact. That's a fact.

SPEAKER_09

Malcolm X was heaven sent. Okay, for sure. Dope.

SPEAKER_11

Yup, he's still on point.

SPEAKER_09

Then he then he hits you with a curveball. He hits you with a couple curveballs. Let's hear it. He says the devil's heaven sent. Hit him with the fog. He says Epstein is heaven sent. Then he says Donald Trump is heaven sent.

SPEAKER_12

You know what though? The devil is heaven sent because he was in heaven at one point in time.

SPEAKER_09

Okay, but then what about the Epstein and the Donald Trump?

SPEAKER_12

Oh, I don't know nothing about that. I can't co-sign that. He said another name. He said another name, too.

SPEAKER_09

I'm trying to think who was the other one.

SPEAKER_12

He said Hitler.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, he said Hitler was heaven sent too. You didn't hear that? He said, I ain't all right. How you forget that?

SPEAKER_12

Did you just put your hand up like this?

SPEAKER_09

No, no, I ain't heck no. Oh, yeah, he tried to get crazy. He tried to get him gone.

SPEAKER_12

He trying to get him gone. That's crazy. Usher gonna get me going. I gotta get you going, bro.

SPEAKER_09

So he tried he tried to clean it up saying that like we all became, we we came to this earth pure, and then we all had a decision, uh path decision whether to go left or go right. Those bad people chose to go right. I'm not co-signing them going right. They just, when they were born, they were heaven sent. But it's like, alright, bro. You don't have to you don't have to put them in the song at all.

SPEAKER_11

It's the um sometimes you gotta read the room, bro. It's a lot happening in the world right now. People struggling. I don't think people want to hear nothing like that. No, definitely not. You see what I'm saying? And and also, too, you um you do some engineer, right? Yeah, so you go with this. Um, and also, too, I've heard a lot of different takes. Like, people like you gotta trust your um engineer. You gotta trust your engineer. Yeah, because before he said all that, he was like, Hey, I had this record. And the engineer told him, Hey man, don't put that out. But he felt like he should have put it out, and despite what his uh engineer said. So he was like, F it. And he's seen the backlash now, you know what I'm saying, that comes with all that when you could have just listened out to your engineer.

SPEAKER_12

I think it's I think it's I don't think it's LaRussell. I think it's the label. You remember LaRussell was supposed to be independent. He was pushing independent all his life, and now he just signed to a label. It might be the label just making them do a whole bunch of cloud stuff, right?

SPEAKER_11

Rock Nation.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, yeah, it might just be the label making them do goofy stuff, bro. Ain't gonna lie. I don't know why he signed. He he was pushing independent.

SPEAKER_11

I ain't gonna put I'm not gonna put that on uh Rock Nation because artists be trying to do things to get themselves popping. Um, I'm not sure if he was doing it for clout or whatever, yeah.

SPEAKER_09

But the song or the deal?

SPEAKER_11

The song, the song for sure. Um the the deal is like you've been independent for so long, you know what I'm saying? You knew those backyard concerts he's been doing. Um he, I mean, it was a masterclass on how to how to run independent. Right from the outside looking in, it looked like he was he was uh gaining traction. Um It looks to be successful, he had his support was dope. I enjoyed seeing it. You ever seen that you ever you seen those um the memes where they'd be somebody be smiling on their phone? That's how I was every time I used to see his. I was like, oh look, that's dope. You know, it's independent, he had great energy, yeah. But it's like the moment that he signed, and also too, people felt away about him signing the deal because but they don't know the business behind it, yeah. But also, too, he was pushing independence and he had people paying five stacks, eight grand, twenty five hundred, you know what I'm saying, five hundred dollars for this private project that he had. And the same project he signed and put on DSPs. Yeah. I would if I would have spent that much money, I would have felt some type of way, like, bro, I'd have spent, I just gave you 10 grand off this project. I'm thinking you're an independent artist, and then you sign in the middle of this whole rollout situation, and then now you're just on DSPs and everybody can listen to it. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Like, how would you feel? Like, you know, but but I mean I get it, it's business behind some of the music. You know, I'm not saying it was a bad decision or a um or or a good decision, but I see why people would feel away.

SPEAKER_09

We're we all go through seasons. I I I'm gonna tap on just the business part, and then I'm gonna really go back on my opinion about the whole heaven sent thing, though. But at the end of the day, what he was yesterday, he don't gotta be today. So if he was pushing independence yesterday and he signs a deal, which we don't know the business behind. Well, we do know because he explained it, but prior to that we didn't know the business behind it.

SPEAKER_11

What did he explain? Like what it is exactly.

SPEAKER_09

Hove at some point was independent and was building the brand, and then he linked it with a label, and he had some type of uh it was like a partnership type of deal, but it was he was still technically like owning Rog Nation. So he was like, I'm gonna give you the tools to be able to do the same thing for your brand, Russell. So I don't know exactly how to do that. Oh, that sounds dope. That's almost sound like a mentor. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. So context matters, but to go back to the actual record and the and the controversy behind that is like we're all creators in here, we all create some type of art in some way, shape, or form. Um, but you gotta understand is like when you're creating some type of art or some type of content, there's some type of e there's a legal level of ego that has that has to go into this that you might not think the way I'm about to put this content out in my world, you might be like, I don't think you should put the content out like that, and then I listen to myself and it goes crazy, viral, then at some point I'm like, I I I gotta listen to my gut because whenever I listen to my gut, it does well. But there's certain times, like in this instance for LaRussell, that you gotta listen to the people around you.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

So I understand the level of ego that goes into creating something, but you gotta be a human at the end of the day, and somebody telling you this is a bad idea and you want to offend people, you gotta really just highly consider that advice.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, um, it seemed like I don't want to spend too much time on this, yeah, but it's not he made all the great all the best decisions when he was running around independent.

SPEAKER_09

Right.

SPEAKER_11

And then he literally just signed this deal, and then like he got he got a little smoke off the whole conversation with Lil Wayne, you know what I'm saying, how he how he was um how L Wayne music has been very bad for the generation, you know what I'm saying? But although that that's still one of his favorite artists. Yeah. And then now this whole situation right now, you know what I'm saying, with the God sent stuff. Um, I don't know. I just think it's unfortunate. I was a I was a fan of his, you know what I'm saying? Um I'm I'm still I'm still a fan of you know so of stuff that he's done. Um if you tell me anything about his music, I couldn't name a song. I can't really, you know what I'm saying, name a hook or anything like that. I just know he has really good. Yeah. I just know he has really good energy. Yeah, you know what I'm saying, goodbyes, good intentions. But um, I just think you just sometimes you just got to put the phone down, bro. Like, yeah, and listen, you know, at some point, I I get what you're saying, ego and stuff come apart, but sometimes, bro, like listen, just listen to your listen to your engineer, listen to the people that care about you. You know what I'm saying? Like everything, everything you don't need to be said. Let's be clear. Yeah, you know, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_09

But I I guarantee you, every single one of us in this room at one point, listen. I mean, somebody told you not to do something with your art, and you listen to yourself and it worked. So that may you be like, you know what, I gotta always bet on myself, but this is the scenario that you gotta really be like, nah, let me listen to that person.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah, you just that was trifling.

SPEAKER_09

Like that was that was a bit much. What made you think that was a good idea?

SPEAKER_11

I mean, when it comes to art, your art, your decisions, like it might be like, don't put the snares there, you know what I'm saying? Like the base or like the hood. Or come on, you talking about something like that's it, man. That's that's all I gotta say about that.

SPEAKER_09

Let's let's wait.

SPEAKER_12

How y'all feel about um Thoughts and Prayers? Uh yeah, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers about uh Chuck Norris. Thoughts and prayers.

Like it was like a thing, you know what I'm saying? And um, I used to always use his name because my first name is Norris. So like when they be like, they don't understand or it didn't hear my heavy accent, like, what's your name? And I'd be like, oh, Norris, like like Chuck Norris. And they'd be like, oh, okay.

Let's be clear. Yes. Damn. They think I'm lying too. If I didn't know you, I thought you thought you would be lying right now. Don't lie to me. I ain't gonna lie to you. I ain't gonna say too much though, because they're gonna be on my neck. But you know.

SPEAKER_09

Damn, I'm sorry, bro.

SPEAKER_11

You might be swimming in the wrong dating pool. I might.

SPEAKER_12

I need to go to the library or something.

SPEAKER_11

Or like yeah, you might need to find a new pond to swim in or something. Like where you like where you like, I mean, I don't want to, I know y'all private, but wait, where you be catching these fish at?

SPEAKER_12

Christian mingle. Oh, you be online? No, I'm saying I have been online. Yeah, yeah. You know what? That's what you that's what the ones that be online be the ones, you know what I'm saying? Hold on. Tell me more. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. KP about to take us out of here now, baby.

SPEAKER_11

Hold on. Hold on. What that mean? What that means. I'm talking in it.

SPEAKER_10

What that mean, KP? Hey, we popped right now, brother. This is what they this is what they want to hear.

SPEAKER_12

Nah, listen. I mean, I ain't really got much to say, but the ones online though, like they really looking for you to sponsor their look. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Like, they do have dudes in their life that you don't have to do all that. I'm not saying all women are like that at all.

SPEAKER_11

Okay.

SPEAKER_12

But they do have, if you come off like a trick, they're gonna treat you like a trick.

SPEAKER_11

They're gonna be get played.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, you know what I'm saying? So you come off as your best bet is to come off broke, even if you aren't broke, you know what I'm saying? And see where they head at first. If they're talking about some nice sentimental stuff, cool.

SPEAKER_11

But I think that's bad advice though.

SPEAKER_12

It might be a good thing.

SPEAKER_11

Because I don't think like coming off as broke ain't good for nobody.

SPEAKER_12

It ain't good for anywhere besides Atlanta. It's good advice for Atlanta.

SPEAKER_11

Coming off authentic, it's just being yourself. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't see nothing wrong with a if a chick don't want to go to a coffee shop in the daytime. No, that's like the safest thing to do.

SPEAKER_12

They don't want to do it, bro.

SPEAKER_11

They don't want to do it. You might as well go to the colour.

SPEAKER_12

Yo, listen, no, listen.

SPEAKER_11

There has to be women in Atlanta that don't mind going to a coffee shop.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, the one the ones that's at Target, and you know what I'm saying? But you want, yeah, you know what? I do be talking to some some yeah. Come on now. Like, come on now, you gotta listen to like what pool you swimming in now. Yeah, you're right. I yeah, they do be, yeah. They gotta be they be overly loaded. I ain't gonna lie. Okay, for real. They be overly loaded when I be talking about it.

SPEAKER_11

And and so when we when we was at uh Carlin Square, you know what I'm saying, in lunch, and I was starting, I was thinking about what she was saying. I'm like, yeah, that would be a cool date. But then I'm thinking about stories that I hear from people that's out here swimming. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? And it's not the greatest of experience. So I was like, well, I guess if you if if the female know that you got money and you take them to like like a food court situation or to like a coffee shop, yeah, it seems like a cute thing, right?

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_11

It's like okay, I I know he knows he can afford more, yeah, but we doing this thing in the daytime and it's a vibe, right? So I think that's where you can kind of get it all if they know a little bit more about who you are.

SPEAKER_12

Am I off? Maybe it's an age thing, actually. Now that I'm thinking about it, yeah, you know what I'm saying? Because the yeah What's your age range right now? Oh, well, I'm 27. No, no, I'm talking about the your date. I know. I'm I'm telling you, I'm 27, I'm not dating nothing. I might date like, dang, what old are you? Lou, get out. How old is Lou? She she over here, like, no, you date me. Like, no, but um, I'll date like a year younger than me.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, that's the that's the limit. So 25 and up, basically, what you're saying. Yeah, oh okay. No, no, no, no, no. 26 and up. 26 and up. So how how how up you go? Hey, the unlimited? If you if you look good, you look good. You look good, you look good, bro.

SPEAKER_12

You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

No, that's a fact. That's a fact. You look good. Yeah, shout out to the wife talking her shit back here. Get your shit off, baby. Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_12

I couldn't even tell you. But yeah, I think it's an age thing, though, because you know, the younger crowd like in my like 20s and stuff like that, like they're they're just like it's heavily, heavily influenced by social media and stuff. So they just see Ari and Baggy. It's some truth in what you're saying now. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

I'm not saying you're all the way wrong, but it's some truth to what you're saying.

SPEAKER_12

Because I done dated a woman that was uh like 12 years older than me.

SPEAKER_11

SPEAKER_11

Girly called, okay, okay. I be learning so much between these two. Yeah, this is okay, all right. Hard launch. And now you want to know what a soft launch is. What's a soft launch?

SPEAKER_09

A soft launch would have been like, shout out my man. Like how she did a couple years ago. You know, that was a soft launch.

SPEAKER_12

You don't think soft launch would have been just like 21 putting his hand on her stomach and then not showing his face? I thought that was soft launch.

SPEAKER_09

We're we're past a soft launch. We're past it. We we seen them a couple months ago on vacation in the Bahamas, and we're still trying to act like this wasn't a thing.

SPEAKER_12

SPEAKER_09

You and you and wifey can do another hard launch. Y'all are y'all are married, you can do a launch. Just launch it.

SPEAKER_09

So shout out to her, man. We've been I feel like there's always been pregnancy rumors with Lotto for years now, but it's dope that now she is. Congratulations to her and 21 allegedly, but it probably is 21.

SPEAKER_11

So why you say allegedly?

SPEAKER_09

Like because at the end of the day, uh she still she still hasn't said who it was.

SPEAKER_11

Exactly. You just y'all just going by hands in the dagger.

SPEAKER_09

We can never until they say 21 Savage is my man. Gotcha. We can never just flat out just say it is. But we know it is. Okay. It is. Okay. But um, but yeah, shout out, bro. Yeah, shout out. And then look at the rollout too, Dirty. I know you can appreciate a good rollout.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, you know, you know I love I'm a sucker for a rollout.

SPEAKER_09

You pop out with the the video, say, yo, midnight, I got an announcement. Midnight, you pop out with two new songs, an album announcement with the baby bump.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, so that's so first of all, I I was clueless to the whole rollout. I just heard the rumors and stuff. So that's that's what it was? That's exactly what it was. Oh, gave us a little two-piece?

SPEAKER_09

She gave us a two-piece and said this is gonna be a part of the album. She's dropping the album the weekend after birthday bash.

SPEAKER_11

After labor day. I mean after memorial day.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. Okay, okay. So this is methodical. There's a strategy behind this. You you pop out with the belly, you come out to birthday bash, and you kiss 21 Savage at Birthday Bash for the first time.

SPEAKER_11

Hold on. Part two. Oh, oh, you you you're trying to say this was going to be.

SPEAKER_09

The date right now is March 22nd.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, you don't be wrong often.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, it's March 22nd. This is a part of the rollout. It's March 22nd right now. Birthday Bash is in May, Memorial Day weekend, a week before she drops her album. She's gonna come out for baby bump. She's gonna bring 21. Somebody's gonna bring Lotto out. Lotto's gonna bring 21 out, and once they're done performing, popping, they're gonna kiss.

SPEAKER_11

The last few times we've seen an artist pregnant and was just going crazy still. Performing crazy, I meant like performing and stuff. Was uh was it Cardi?

SPEAKER_09

Cardi.

SPEAKER_11

Um Beyoncé. Do you know what Beyonce? And then she do like um Rihanna did the Super Bowl pregnant.

SPEAKER_09

I seen in in in person, I seen young Miami crowd surf pregnant. Y'all heard crowd surfing when you're pregnant.

SPEAKER_11

Did she like lay down and then let them listen? Oh, okay, okay.

SPEAKER_09

She was crowd surfing while she was pregnant.

SPEAKER_11

Oh wow. That's lit. That's crazy. Yeah, yeah. Okay, all right. Well, I mean, shout out shout out to Lotto, Big Lotto, Big Mama. Um KP, what's on the list, man? What's on the docket? What else what else we got before we get out of here, man?

SPEAKER_09

That's all.

SPEAKER_11

What else y'all want to get off?

SPEAKER_06

That was really it.

SPEAKER_11

Um I guess I guess we can talk about um J. Cole. Have y'all had a chance to see any of his um his interviews?

SPEAKER_09

I've seen that he's open to doing interviews.

SPEAKER_11

So he he sat down with Nadeska, correct? Wasn't it Nadeska? The same one from Complex, you know what I'm saying, with the Joe Button podcast. I mean, the Joe Button um um academics situation academic situation. Yeah, yeah. I mean, shout out to her, first of all. Yeah, she's gonna it seemed like she got a really great relationship with J. Cole. And I guess uh this is not her first interview with J. Cole, because I guess during the interview they was representing the last time they sat down. Okay, you know what I'm saying? So I'm assuming that, you know what I'm saying, they got some type of rapport there. Yeah, yeah. Um I first saw clips, obviously, the moment that people wanted to kind of know, like, why did you apologize and all that? Um, but when I first got into the interview, it was it was really telling, man. He um he was kind of breaking down how long he had been working on the fall off.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

And what what stood out to me was during the process of him trying to create the fall off, he um he he he would be making music and it wasn't fitting the project that he had um that that he felt like that was for the fall off. So that's how you get the KOD and all these other projects that came before, right? Yeah. So um let me um let me let me um play a little bit. Let me see. Let me play a little bit. Have y'all seen any clips or anything yet?

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Hold on, let me see what we at? What we at?

SPEAKER_11

Hold on, bear with me.

SPEAKER_08

But the whole mission of the Fallout, in a nutshell, I didn't say it like this 10 years ago, but the mission was to become again a rapper that like I want to hear. You know what I mean? To make the music that I want to hear, to write the verses that I want to hear, to make the album that I want to hear. So there was a gratitude of like, of like, damn, like even on the way here, I had an hour drive here. It's like I'm playing the album and I'm rapping along with this shit. Like it's not me. If you see me rap an outcast album or a Jay-Z album, like I'm sitting there rapping my own album like that, and that hasn't happened for a long time.

SPEAKER_11

Hey, that was dope because I wanted to kind of ask KP this, because you're an artist. Um in that clip, it was so dope because J. Cole was like, he listened to his own music like it's not him, right? And he one time in the interview, he said he was in a car with a friend, and his homeboy was like, hey man, put that put that thing on, man, you know what I'm saying? Your your your song. And he was excited to hear that because he wanted to hear it too. And they both in there rapping along to his music like not even him. And he said, um, this project, he got back into that feeling because he hadn't felt like that he was his favorite artist for a while. You know what I'm saying? And he was like outside of um he had referenced uh Tupac, and outside of like um, I think Nas or whoever, whatever, he was like, he was his favorite artist. He would just be, he would just be bumping his own music and rapping along to it like it wasn't his lyrics. And I thought it was dope. So like KP, like as an artist, like when you like when you create music or like you in the vibe, like do you play your stuff and like listen to yourself like you're not you sometime?

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, I ain't gonna lie, like there's there's like two songs in my playlist right now that I like put on and I'll be like listening to like I can't believe I even made this. And I just I'll just be like, dang, like I'm bumping, I'm hoping everybody else, when I drop it, everybody else gonna feel the same way. Yeah, but even if they don't, I don't care. There's like two people in this world that actually like tell me, like, make me feel really good about my music. Actually, three people, my bad. Three people. Um, it's always like, well, I can't even say maybe four. Four actually. But it's um Will, Lil Will to God. Shout out Lil Will, real quick. He got an album out now called Almost Famous. Almost Famous. We be bumping each other's music like crazy and stuff like that, like supporting each other and stuff. Like he's one of the only ones that be like, hey, turn that on, or send me that song. Okay. Um this other girl, she she loves it, she'll put other people on to it and stuff like that. Uh and she be like rocking going crazy. And then I say, like, your boy, like, no, I'm talking about you and Norris.

SPEAKER_09

You're not gonna say her name, you're just gonna say this girl, like this, yeah. So she she Or is it are you saying you're not saying their name for a reason?

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, okay, okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You gotta respect that special. You gotta respect that. That's what's up, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_12

But um, yeah, she be going crazy, man. And then uh we saw in Norris, we saw in Norris, like, bro, they'll be like, let me hear some new stuff that you got, blah blah blah blah blah. You know what I'm saying? Like that stuff like that be making me feel good and make me want to listen to it. Like it makes me feel like y'all not even talking about me, y'all just talking about that artist, yeah. And then I like the artist too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, so yeah, no, it's so how often, so how often do you like you just you be like, Dang, I felt I want to hear this song and it just happened to be yours?

SPEAKER_12

Um like when somebody tells me to put it on or something.

SPEAKER_11

No, no, no, when you by yourself are chilling, you want do you have the urge to hear it?

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, sometimes I listen to other artists. Like I could be listening to any type of like mainstream artists or something like that. And I'll be like, I want to hear me. I want to hear me. Like, I feel like me sounds better right now.

SPEAKER_11

And you sing along to it and you like bump your head. Like, so I I would think like you you're you're in the creative process, right? Like you, you like you listening to the beat, you're writing the lyrics, you know what I'm saying, you're doing all that stuff, you know what I'm saying? The musicality of it, you know what I'm saying? You in the pocket, and after that, you feel like I I I would assume that you like, okay, I'm I'm done with that. But then it's just so insightful to hear artists like you and J. Cole to be like, even after the process of creating the music, you still play it and play it and play it, and you still enjoy it as if it's not you. Yeah, that's that's that's fire, bro. Shout out to y'all two, man. Yeah, man. Shout out to all y'all. What's the um I can kind of feel that a little bit, you know what I'm saying? But when like when I'm sewing, I'm making clothes and I make a project, when I'm done making it, I sort of I'm sometimes off it. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? I don't even want to make that project again, you know what I'm saying? I like I like doing different things.

SPEAKER_12

So then is that is it the same for you, like when you make clothes and then like you you make a nice little piece and then you just keep pulling out the closet, or like somebody comes over, like guessing, they're like, hey, pull that out the closet, bro. Let me let me see that.

SPEAKER_11

Like I ain't gonna hold you. There are some pieces that I just can't deny. It's like this is fire. Like, yeah, every time I like, and I like kind of like you and J. Cole was saying, like, like, bro, I can't even believe I made this. Like, it'd it'd be it'd be like it'd be some heat, you know what I'm saying? And I do enjoy and I appreciate it. But I think like music is like, I don't know, it's like you you have to like hear it, you know what I'm saying? And like and like vibe out to it, you know, it's it gives a lot of nostalgic feel sometimes, like a situation where you was at, you know what I'm saying? The mood, um, and just to be just want to hear yourself, yeah, you know, and like and rap alone to yourself or sing alone with yourself. I don't know. I just I I never thought about it like that. I thought it's dope, man. Yeah. Respect. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. So we did it, man. Before we get out of here. Go ahead. Go ahead.
