00:02:13.040 Yeah.
00:02:13.300 What does that mean?
00:02:14.820 Like a doctor's office.
00:02:16.280 Like a hospital?
00:02:17.400 Yeah.
00:02:18.300 Like...
00:02:18.680 It helps me focus like that.
00:02:22.620 Like a nice-ass hospital.
00:02:23.700 So, wait.
00:02:25.260 How do you have a million subscribers?
00:02:27.280 How do you have a million subscribers in a family?
00:02:29.980 I got...
00:02:30.420 That was three years ago.
00:02:31.840 So, I've been doing YouTube for 12 years, and they banned me three years ago.
00:02:35.560 But...
00:02:35.700 I went to the YouTube headquarters yesterday in LA, and I got to meet some employees.
00:02:39.680 So, I'm trying every day I can.
00:02:44.180 To get on, man.
00:02:46.560 I've been this game for a while.
00:02:49.060 What do you want?
00:02:49.440 You want a little bit of...
00:02:49.980 The box, sir?
00:02:50.400 The balcony real quick.
00:02:52.120 The street for weight for a second.
00:02:53.640 The box?
00:02:54.740 Yeah.
00:02:55.480 You might even turn after this.

00:04:36.480 Yeah, how long you been in New York?
00:04:38.720 A few months.
00:04:39.960 A few months.
00:04:40.480 Chad, can you hear?
00:04:41.260 Let me put the mic a little closer. 1.00
00:04:43.780 Oh, shit. 1.00
00:04:44.820 Where are you from? 1.00
00:04:45.680 I don't even know where you're from.
00:04:47.260 I'm from Atlanta.
00:04:48.400 From Atlanta?
00:04:49.300 Why'd you move to New York?
00:04:52.080 First of all, yeah.

00:04:59.120 Wait, L.A. is an ass. 0.99
00:05:01.520 Yeah, there's good and bad parts about L.A. 1.00
00:05:03.520 I just did a stream with Ray J yesterday.
00:05:05.640 He's very L.A.
00:05:08.180 You know, you can tell he's been there for a long time.
00:05:12.120 Yeah, Ray J is amazing.
00:05:15.720 I'm sure.
00:05:16.860 Yeah.
00:05:19.180 If you want to sit a little closer, I don't know if they can hear you that well.
00:05:23.040 Really?
00:05:23.360 Yeah.

00:05:32.520 It's cool.
00:05:33.440 Chad, can you hear?
00:05:34.520 Can they hear me a little?
00:05:35.240 Yeah, I think you're okay.
00:05:36.300 Don't worry about it.
00:05:37.600 Don't worry about it.
00:05:38.720 But you're going to Spain.
00:05:41.500 What you been working on for a song?
00:05:43.020 You even really busy with something.
00:05:45.400 Yeah, I've just been helping Ye.
00:05:48.060 Just helping Ye for real, bro.
00:05:49.740 Just trying to help me.
00:05:51.380 Just make it a good idea.
00:05:52.280 Whatever you're working on now, that's all I've been doing lately, man. 0.99
00:05:57.540 A lot of personal, personal shit. 0.99
00:06:01.200 And, yeah. 0.99
00:06:03.460 It's been busy.
00:06:04.180 You were in Japan, right?
00:06:06.420 When you came back here.
00:06:07.520 I was there for a little bit.
00:06:10.220 Yeah, definitely.
00:06:11.760 You folk in Japan?
00:06:13.520 Yeah, sure.
00:06:15.080 Like, I've been there like seven times, so it's just like, feels like home, to be honest.
00:06:20.280 You've been to Spain before?
00:06:23.820 No.
00:06:24.660 Spain's nice.
00:06:25.240 I don't know where you're going, but I've been to Barcelona, Madrid, Marbella.
00:06:29.380 It's a cool place.
00:06:30.960 A lot of beautiful churches.
00:06:32.220 The churches look similar to here.
00:06:33.420 Like, if you look downtown, they have the Gothic churches.
00:06:36.080 You kind of get that feeling over there.
00:06:37.760 Like, you know, you have a whole wife's thing. 1.00
00:06:43.420 Right.
00:06:45.100 Just wherever they work, though.
00:06:47.700 Like, for real, right? 0.99
00:06:50.220 Just trying to help them get this shit done, bro. 0.99
00:06:54.200 Yeah. 0.99
00:06:55.520 Bro, I got it.
00:06:56.480 So, did you produce the song Cousins?
00:06:58.520 Uh, yeah, I helped out with it, yeah.
00:07:02.640 The outro?
00:07:03.540 The date?
00:07:04.360 No, no, no, no.
00:07:05.080 Just like, overall, just help me, like, put it together.
00:07:09.020 You engineered it?
00:07:10.260 No.
00:07:11.640 Just like, uh, get my opinion and just...
00:07:16.300 Oh, okay.
00:07:16.940 Yeah, just try to, like, just, you know, get a little sound right.
00:07:23.420 Like, not engineering-wise, but, like, structure, I guess, why.
00:07:26.420 Yeah, I saw the clip of you playing it at the end.
00:07:29.500 Or, no, of you playing it in Japan.
00:07:31.040 I've been listening to that outro part, which sounds like an AI version of Dave Blunt's song.
00:07:35.840 I don't know how...
00:07:36.700 I think they put Ye's voice in the AI over Dave Blunt's 10 parts.
00:07:40.500 I was playing that all day yesterday. 0.97
00:07:42.020 It's been sucking my... 0.99
00:07:42.600 The whole... 0.99
00:07:42.920 On the plane, I was playing it.
00:07:44.640 That's one of my favorite Ye tracks.
00:07:46.300 So, the fact that you worked on that, I got to give you props for that.
00:07:51.000 I like the new work at all.
00:07:52.240 I know it's pretty controversial with the fans, but...
00:07:55.020 I like the new sound that I'm hearing.
00:07:57.240 I'm excited for World War III. 1.00
00:07:59.560 Yeah, no, that's just dope.
00:08:01.340 It's a sound like a classic, like, yeah.
00:08:04.520 Yeah.
00:08:06.000 How can...
00:08:06.400 You've been streaming every day.
00:08:07.520 What's the...
00:08:08.460 Trying to, but it's hard.
00:08:10.380 Like, streaming every day, like...
00:08:13.840 Oh, man.
00:08:15.980 I don't see how y'all do it.
00:08:17.400 Wait, you get...
00:08:19.840 It takes up a lot of energy, right?
00:08:21.500 Yeah, bro.
00:08:22.780 You think it's harder than producing?
00:08:26.020 Nah, it's fun.
00:08:27.140 It's like...
00:08:27.780 It's more fun than me.
00:08:29.620 Mm-hmm.
00:08:29.900 You got, um...
00:08:34.120 You always play unreleased music on...
00:08:35.780 You don't get nervous sometimes about leaking music or...
00:08:39.680 You know, because I see you playing unreleased tracks on your stream all the time.
00:08:43.920 I know rappers are really afraid of getting their music leaked or something not being right
00:08:48.240 before it's released properly. 0.98
00:08:49.900 No, the shit I'd be playing would be done. 0.99
00:08:52.560 It'd just be done. 1.00
00:08:53.780 It'd just be like...
00:08:54.680 So you'd have, like, dozens of tracks ready to go.
00:08:57.600 Yeah, it'd just be done, like... 0.98
00:08:59.020 And then a lot of that shit already be leaked. 0.99
00:09:01.480 Mm-hmm. 1.00
00:09:02.500 Like, a lot of that shit be... 1.00
00:09:04.180 Be already leaked. 1.00
00:09:05.240 That's how I got it.
00:09:06.400 Mm-hmm.
00:09:06.540 I don't...
00:09:06.940 Sometimes, like...
00:09:08.360 I don't even...
00:09:09.920 Like, I just...
00:09:11.020 I get biosynthes to me.
00:09:13.080 You know, from kids.
00:09:14.140 And I'm like... 0.99
00:09:15.420 How the fuck y'all got it? 0.99
00:09:16.680 It must be already leaked. 0.99
00:09:18.060 Yeah.
00:09:18.200 So I just play it.
00:09:20.520 I didn't ask you.
00:09:21.320 Do you want to water something?
00:09:23.180 Sure.
00:09:23.680 Yeah, you want to water...
00:09:24.220 You want a juice, too?
00:09:25.080 I got some health juices if you want.
00:09:27.880 Thank you.
00:09:29.120 That's crazy.
00:09:29.960 I'll be like, how the hell...
00:09:31.140 Please.
00:09:32.920 How I get my songs sent to me from a random person?
00:09:36.820 So...
00:09:37.620 You got professional leakers out here.
00:09:40.020 Huh?
00:09:40.440 You got professional full-time leakers.
00:09:43.420 I don't know what...
00:09:44.280 I just want these juices.
00:09:45.440 I don't know what you want.
00:09:45.860 They got...
00:09:46.420 Thank you, man.
00:09:46.940 Wait.
00:09:47.380 They got full...
00:09:48.220 They got full-time leakers?
00:09:52.680 Yeah, full-time leakers.
00:09:54.060 That's crazy.
00:09:55.140 Like, for me...
00:09:56.680 It's like...
00:09:57.840 I'm learning about that.
00:10:00.300 Like, I don't know.
00:10:01.020 That's crazy.
00:10:02.460 You know, I'm new to that.
00:10:03.440 And I'm learning, like...
00:10:04.420 That there's actually leakers.
00:10:05.660 Like...
00:10:06.140 For me, bro...
00:10:07.020 It'd just be like...
00:10:08.880 I'd be like... 1.00
00:10:10.380 Damn! 1.00
00:10:11.960 What the fuck? 1.00
00:10:13.960 You know what I'm saying? 1.00
00:10:15.360 So, it'd just be surprising to me.
00:10:16.680 That's crazy that they got, like...
00:10:18.200 People that professionally do that.
00:10:20.520 You know what I'm saying?
00:10:21.140 Yeah.
00:10:22.360 How was your Easter?
00:10:23.800 We were talking about Jesus on the phone.
00:10:25.740 You're saying that that's...
00:10:26.260 Oh, I did.
00:10:26.660 I like that.
00:10:27.300 I like that you...
00:10:27.800 I saw your Bible study stream.
00:10:29.120 I saw some of that.
00:10:29.620 I think that's dope.
00:10:31.120 Was your...
00:10:31.620 You spent Easter in New York?
00:10:34.220 Yeah.
00:10:34.720 Definitely, like...
00:10:36.200 Like, bro.
00:10:37.060 Bible study.
00:10:38.240 It's amazing.
00:10:40.020 I really love doing that.
00:10:42.160 You've done Bible study with Ye?
00:10:43.660 Not yet.
00:10:44.260 I mean...
00:10:44.920 Down in the days, but...
00:10:46.840 Down in the stadium, we had Bible study.
00:10:49.100 But that was, like, the only time I ever did it.
00:10:52.460 Yeah.
00:10:52.900 I would like to see more people in the music industry talk about...
00:10:55.500 Jesus and talk about God.
00:10:57.460 Talk about positive things.
00:10:59.160 I've started to notice, like...
00:11:00.440 Just spending three days in L.A.
00:11:02.260 I don't know.
00:11:02.900 It seems like there's a shift in energy.
00:11:04.900 In the music industry.
00:11:07.160 And the way that the spirits are affecting people.
00:11:11.780 It feels like there's a shift going on.
00:11:14.180 Every time I see a video of Justin Bieber, I get that feeling.
00:11:17.800 Every time I see...
00:11:20.740 Or just being...
00:11:21.580 Doing that stream of Ray J.
00:11:22.600 And even the stuff I noticed at Coachella.
00:11:24.380 It seems like there's a shift.
00:11:25.660 So if people could talk about God more...
00:11:28.740 I think that that'd be a step in the positive direction.
00:11:31.700 Yeah.
00:11:33.760 Hold on real quick.
00:11:37.560 We gotta run it up.
00:11:39.480 Oh.
00:11:40.360 That's not good.
00:11:43.200 God.
00:11:43.640 What did you say?
00:11:54.380 It's good that you're talking about God in the music industry.
00:11:57.460 Because it's a very demonic industry.
00:12:00.280 Let's be real.
00:12:00.680 Yeah, I feel like...
00:12:02.680 Yeah, I feel like...
00:12:09.680 No, Chad, they were respectful with the shoes.
00:12:17.640 They didn't give any problem taking off their shoes.
00:12:19.720 And yeah, he has a shoe cover.
00:12:21.260 I appreciate that.
00:12:22.420 Yeah, I appreciate that.
00:12:24.060 What's the link?

00:13:19.240 Sony FX3.
00:13:20.460 Do you like the studio?
00:13:21.360 Or do you think it's like...
00:13:22.280 What do you think?
00:13:22.800 Because I spent a lot of...
00:13:24.920 You know, I created that.
00:13:27.020 I like it.
00:13:27.620 You don't like it?
00:13:29.080 I mean, it would be cool if you had like a little...
00:13:31.740 Boop or something.
00:13:33.140 Oh, I could put that on the balcony maybe.
00:13:35.300 I'm going to turn on the TVs.
00:13:37.160 Sorry.
00:13:37.520 I didn't already know that you're associated with party.
00:13:48.060 So, people that know you, they already know that you're associated with party.
00:13:53.220 I'm pretty new on party.
00:13:54.480 So, most people...
00:13:55.080 I would say...
00:13:56.500 Yeah, most people do.
00:13:57.780 Most people...
00:13:58.240 The loyal ones.
00:13:59.500 All right.
00:14:01.660 So, once you get back on YouTube, how many subscribers do you have?
00:14:07.120 I had 2 million when I was banned.
00:14:09.100 I had 1.3 on my main channel and 900 on my second channel.
00:14:13.200 So...
00:14:13.720 Why do y'all be making all these like channels?
00:14:17.560 Like, all these separate channels?
00:14:19.720 So, my main channel is for my short films and documentaries.
00:14:22.440 It was like my more...
00:14:23.980 I edit everything.
00:14:25.460 I'm a YouTube editor.
00:14:27.520 So, that would go for my more well-crafted stuff.
00:14:30.580 My second channel is where I was doing streaming.
00:14:32.480 So, I didn't want to mix the two.
00:14:33.720 It's like one was for meticulously crafted art.
00:14:36.900 And then the other is just, you know, streaming every day.
00:14:39.560 I didn't want to plug it to kill.
00:14:42.140 So...
00:14:42.900 Basically, there's all these platforms that do live streaming.
00:14:48.600 Twitch is like one of the biggest.
00:14:50.680 Yeah.
00:14:50.920 Kick is like second.
00:14:52.140 Yeah.
00:14:52.320 But then there's all these other companies that stream and live streaming.
00:14:56.600 Yeah.
00:14:57.040 I streamed on Rumble for two years.
00:14:59.160 So, when I was banned everywhere, I went to Rumble for two years.
00:15:02.120 And then my contract ended.
00:15:03.080 And then I went to a party.
00:15:05.020 So, I'm like an athlete jumping from team to team right now, pretty much.
00:15:08.560 But right now, I want to go all in on party.
00:15:11.220 I want to go all in on party.
00:15:12.360 I don't want to be...
00:15:13.200 That's crazy.
00:15:13.820 I don't want to be a free agent anymore.
00:15:16.100 Personally.
00:15:16.460 Nah, bro.
00:15:17.020 Like...
00:15:17.820 Yo, Yeezy streaming on the way.
00:15:20.580 Yeah, yeah.
00:15:21.040 What's Yeezy streaming?
00:15:22.420 I'll say I'm about to see the first announcement.
00:15:29.040 That was the first one?
00:15:30.080 Okay.
00:15:30.560 I'm excited to...
00:15:31.560 Do you know when it's going to start?
00:15:34.280 I don't know.
00:15:35.380 But...
00:15:35.780 I feel like...
00:15:37.280 You know, we'll see.
00:15:41.200 But yeah.
00:15:41.740 What about personal projects?
00:15:43.480 Because it seems like you're...
00:15:44.740 You've been working a lot with Yee. 0.97
00:15:46.740 But you've been in the game for a long time.
00:15:48.400 What are you working on personally right now?
00:15:49.980 I'm trying to make sure I just provide a stable foundation for her.
00:16:00.160 You know?
00:16:00.660 I'm just...
00:16:01.360 You know?
00:16:02.500 Just trying to figure out my personal life.
00:16:04.820 I don't know.
00:16:08.160 You have a lot of kids?
00:16:10.380 No.
00:16:10.660 I just have one.
00:16:11.300 My first one.
00:16:12.200 Oh, okay.
00:16:13.040 That's basically what I've been super focused on.
00:16:16.440 You know what I'm saying?
00:16:17.240 Mm-hmm.
00:16:18.500 But...
00:16:18.940 It seems like...
00:16:20.500 You know, a lot of other things are happening during that time. 0.99
00:16:24.560 So it looks like, oh, shit. 0.99
00:16:26.180 But... 0.99
00:16:26.860 I'm trying to figure out a way to balance it in the best way possible.
00:16:31.400 Like, focus on that and that.
00:16:32.820 But I'm really starting to care more about the other stuff outside of, like, everything.
00:16:38.800 Like, music and everything.
00:16:40.400 And streaming.
00:16:40.980 All that.
00:16:41.460 Like, I'm more focused on my personal life.
00:16:44.020 So your main focus right now is personal life and then streaming second, music third?
00:16:48.860 Obviously, yeah, bro.
00:16:50.400 I think I'm starting to, like, stream more music.
00:16:52.180 I love music.
00:16:53.320 But...
00:16:54.200 I've been doing it for a long time.
00:16:57.320 And it's like...
00:16:58.020 I still love it.
00:16:58.960 I'm always loving it.
00:16:59.980 But I genuinely like streaming.
00:17:01.620 It feels so fun.
00:17:03.540 Yeah, interacting with the chat.
00:17:04.680 Having a community.
00:17:06.000 I ain't going to Franville.
00:17:07.640 It feels super fun.
00:17:08.680 I got...
00:17:09.080 Hot enough.
00:17:10.440 Like...
00:17:10.880 Oh, I might need another water.
00:17:12.680 You need another water?
00:17:13.900 Mm-hmm.
00:17:14.960 You want a lemonade?
00:17:16.380 A gingerade?
00:17:18.360 This one's that.
00:17:19.080 It's a health drink.
00:17:19.560 Anything we need to write.
00:17:21.620 Okay.
00:17:23.800 Sorry.
00:17:25.140 Party.

00:17:27.860 They're liking the stream so far.
00:17:29.400 Yeah, like...
00:17:30.700 Um...
00:17:32.040 Yeah, bro.
00:17:33.480 It's like...
00:17:34.980 This movie looked crazy.
00:17:36.960 It's him.
00:17:37.820 Yeah, that's Twin Peaks by David Lynch.
00:17:39.620 Rest in peace.
00:17:40.780 It's a TV show, actually.
00:17:42.320 You ever see it?
00:17:43.580 Twin Peaks.
00:17:44.540 I think my hair was like...
00:17:45.960 Oh, yeah.
00:17:47.160 Now the color is like...
00:17:48.980 Yeah, great color.
00:17:49.800 I like the font.
00:17:51.820 The font color on the visual.
00:17:53.700 Let's go.
00:17:54.280 Font.
00:17:55.320 How do you get inspiration as a artist?
00:17:57.160 Like this?
00:17:57.600 Yeah, so you keep...
00:17:58.680 This is what I...
00:17:59.460 No, like literally, like...
00:18:01.080 I'm inspired by this right now.
00:18:04.140 And it's like actually in real time.
00:18:06.340 Make me think of like... 0.99
00:18:07.660 Really doing some cool shit. 0.99
00:18:10.020 But I'm just watching this. 0.93
00:18:11.580 And I'm watching right now.
00:18:13.100 What do you use to produce?
00:18:14.060 FL Studio?
00:18:14.820 Yeah.
00:18:16.420 You brought your laptop with you, right?
00:18:18.100 Oh, no.
00:18:18.520 You just brought your iPad.
00:18:19.140 But you can use anything, though.
00:18:21.200 Right?
00:18:21.440 Like you can use any.
00:18:24.860 You brought your laptop.
00:18:25.960 Nah, I have my iPad with it.
00:18:27.500 Oh.
00:18:28.360 I'm saying you can use...
00:18:29.740 Like you...
00:18:30.260 You don't just use FL Studio.
00:18:32.640 Like...
00:18:33.040 Bro, it'd be feeling like...
00:18:34.120 I'd be using like...
00:18:35.320 Man.
00:18:36.260 I've seen...
00:18:36.880 It'd be feeling like...
00:18:38.520 I'd be using like Spirit.
00:18:40.580 Exactly.
00:18:41.340 I don't...
00:18:41.880 It'd be like...
00:18:42.480 What does that mean?
00:18:43.420 It'd be like...
00:18:45.120 It'd be like me being there...
00:18:47.280 Helps the record get made.
00:18:48.720 I don't know...
00:18:51.380 How to explain it other than that.
00:18:52.880 Like...
00:18:54.000 I...
00:18:54.880 Just show up there...
00:18:56.180 And somehow things move...
00:18:57.880 And get done.
00:18:59.380 I don't really know how to explain that.
00:19:01.880 Yeah.
00:19:02.280 What do you think it is about you?
00:19:03.600 Because some people show up...
00:19:04.700 And then nothing gets done.
00:19:05.640 Some people show up to the studio...
00:19:07.140 And then strippers are there. 1.00
00:19:08.680 And then...
00:19:09.280 You know...
00:19:09.540 The lean cups start flowing.
00:19:11.340 People start smoking weed.
00:19:12.360 Like they get distracted, you know?
00:19:14.040 So people can hold back your creative process.
00:19:16.080 Why do you think you add to it?
00:19:17.120 Maybe my ear.
00:19:21.800 I think it's...
00:19:22.380 I think I have a good ear.
00:19:23.980 Right.
00:19:24.640 That sounded like a good session.
00:19:26.020 That ain't sound like...
00:19:27.060 Yeah.
00:19:28.520 No, but he's saying that he gets the work going, you know?
00:19:31.060 Because...
00:19:31.220 Yeah.
00:19:31.780 Nah, his ear is insane.
00:19:33.260 Like...
00:19:33.820 No.
00:19:34.920 Everything...
00:19:35.840 Everything he'd be sending me is always crazy.
00:19:38.080 Like all the music...
00:19:39.100 He listens to him.
00:19:39.840 It's crazy.
00:19:40.120 Like...
00:19:41.120 And it comes from...
00:19:44.120 From birth, though.
00:19:45.840 Like...
00:19:46.120 You're just born with it.
00:19:48.060 You gotta be born with it.
00:19:49.520 It's a gift.
00:19:50.740 Bro, I don't know.
00:19:51.860 Like even like...
00:19:53.280 Like...
00:19:53.980 In elementary...
00:19:55.180 Like at the playground...
00:19:56.440 I would show up...
00:19:57.920 And then it would be like... 1.00
00:19:59.980 It would become this circle type shit, bro. 0.99
00:20:02.560 Like... 1.00
00:20:03.080 Me and my friends were like kissing white girls. 0.99
00:20:05.460 And I'm bitching. 0.97
00:20:06.820 In a circle.
00:20:07.920 Like...
00:20:08.420 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:20:09.520 At the...
00:20:10.020 At the lunch table.
00:20:11.120 And I was like...
00:20:11.660 Yeah.
00:20:13.360 So it's like...
00:20:14.280 I don't know.
00:20:15.320 Yeah.
00:20:16.260 And then...
00:20:17.000 I forgot about that feeling...
00:20:18.580 When I got to...
00:20:20.380 Like middle school, high school...
00:20:22.660 Because...
00:20:23.580 I dressed differently.
00:20:24.940 So you know...
00:20:25.460 If you're not...
00:20:26.060 If you wasn't dressed in like...
00:20:28.160 Everybody...
00:20:29.260 Yeah.

00:20:33.300 So...
00:20:34.020 That was like middle school...
00:20:35.600 High school.
00:20:36.880 So it's like...
00:20:37.620 Oh...
00:20:38.040 I forgot about that feeling...
00:20:39.280 Because...
00:20:39.960 Niggas was just wearing bands. 1.00
00:20:41.560 What do we think?
00:20:41.920 It's just wearing... 0.99
00:20:43.220 Oh, the new Jordans and shit. 0.99
00:20:45.700 Yeah. 0.93
00:20:46.340 So it's just like...
00:20:47.700 It's trying to describe that feeling...
00:20:49.380 Is like actually insane.
00:20:51.080 Like...
00:20:51.720 As a kid...
00:20:52.940 You know...
00:20:53.360 Like...
00:20:53.860 It's like... 1.00
00:20:54.240 Holy fuck. 1.00
00:20:55.600 That is such a like... 1.00
00:20:56.680 Small minded thing to think about.
00:20:58.200 As an adult... 0.99
00:20:58.960 You don't think about a nigga walking by... 1.00
00:21:00.780 With like... 1.00
00:21:01.620 Some bullshit on. 0.99
00:21:03.520 But in elementary... 0.99

00:21:05.940 It's like...
00:21:06.540 You actually...

00:21:12.520 So I can hang with him.
00:21:13.640 So yeah, bro.

00:21:17.280 Around middle school...
00:21:18.020 High school...
00:21:18.400 I forgot about that feeling.

00:21:20.000 It's like you can't hit your back...
00:21:21.320 To the music.
00:21:22.960 Yeah.
00:21:23.640 There was a lot of...
00:21:24.600 Do you think there's a lot of...
00:21:25.600 Similarities between high school...
00:21:26.680 Middle school...
00:21:27.120 And the music industry?
00:21:28.960 Hell yeah, bro.
00:21:32.720 You think so?

00:21:36.060 Like the music industry.
00:21:37.740 Yeah.
00:21:38.160 It's like...
00:21:38.900 The clicky aspect of it?
00:21:40.700 Literally.
00:21:41.420 It's the same thing.
00:21:43.500 It was like...

00:22:08.320 But yeah, how do you guys know each other from Atlanta?
00:22:14.080 It's music.
00:22:15.240 Just...
00:22:15.600 I met him literally a long time ago.
00:22:20.360 Like maybe four years, five years ago.
00:22:22.840 I don't know.
00:22:24.460 Three, four...
00:22:25.480 A long time ago.
00:22:26.660 Yeah.
00:22:27.000 And like...
00:22:27.820 It was through my friend Ethan.
00:22:29.840 You know?

00:22:31.320 Just like...
00:22:33.100 Posted him.
00:22:34.040 And I just found his music.
00:22:35.880 It was just...
00:22:36.980 You know?
00:22:37.360 I pulled up and met you at a main event.
00:22:40.800 Like a...
00:22:41.220 What's it called?
00:22:42.600 Like a bowling alley. 1.00
00:22:43.800 And you let me play my music out your car loud as fuck, bro. 1.00
00:22:49.280 And that's like... 1.00
00:22:50.360 You know how dog...
00:22:51.440 Know that feeling.
00:22:52.300 Somebody like lets you...
00:22:53.720 Rock. 1.00
00:22:54.460 Play your shit. 1.00
00:22:55.660 That was on the first week? 1.00
00:22:57.440 Uh-huh.
00:22:57.760 You always get it?
00:22:59.280 Yeah.
00:22:59.640 Yeah, like...
00:23:00.360 I more so just love music so much that I just...
00:23:04.360 I genuinely like love music to the point where it's like...
00:23:10.220 I don't really dabble with drugs a lot.
00:23:13.920 Like, you know what I'm saying?
00:23:15.380 Because honestly, music feels like that drug.
00:23:20.480 So once I get a new...
00:23:22.700 Once I hear like something new and fresh and like...
00:23:26.580 It feels like a new high.
00:23:28.200 Right.
00:23:28.520 So...
00:23:29.120 That's a good explanation, yeah.
00:23:30.440 When I heard Cousins for the first time...
00:23:32.440 Because I don't do drugs anymore.
00:23:33.800 Yeah.
00:23:34.060 When I heard Cousins for the first time, it felt like I was getting high.
00:23:37.040 Like that...
00:23:37.440 How much it made me feel.
00:23:39.480 And experience...
00:23:40.760 It was like a psychedelic experience.
00:23:42.240 I'm serious.
00:23:42.760 I listened to the ending on Loop.
00:23:45.060 And I was listening to the car.
00:23:46.760 And it changed my whole day.
00:23:48.280 And it was making me reflect upon vulnerability and childhood.
00:23:53.060 And how people aren't honest.
00:23:55.340 And having that sort of revelation through a song, it's like...
00:23:57.820 It can put you into a different mind state.
00:23:59.840 And that's a power that not a lot of media forms have.
00:24:04.060 So when you find a song like that, it really is like a high.
00:24:08.500 Yeah.
00:24:09.220 Yeah, bro.
00:24:09.940 Like...
00:24:10.940 Like...
