00:00Your story is incredible. Now, first of all, we got to move back and we're going to set the scene for everybody who might not be up.
00:06We're going to go two years ago.
00:07Okay.
00:08Two years ago, there was a kid that was working in the TGI Fridays that was rapping under his breath while he was bringing people their food.
00:14Yeah, for sure.
00:16Was he messing up people's orders?
00:18Nah, but he was, if you order like a side of shrimp, one of them was definitely missing.
00:25It happens.
00:26It happened.
00:27It happened.
00:28Several times.
00:30All right.
00:30So was that kid ready for what's going on right now?
00:34Oh, he was too ready.
00:35Was he ready, though?
00:36His ego was ready, but was he ready?
00:38Nah, he was ready for sure.
00:40He was more than ready.
00:43I don't know.
00:43He might have been.
00:45He might have been.
00:46All right.
00:46Well, I say that to slide to now 170 plus, 170 million plus streams that you got going on right now.
00:56170 million streams on this album that's just been out a few weeks.
01:01Dang.
01:01Really.
01:02I didn't know that.
01:03Yeah.
01:03Like, total to date, 171 million streams.
01:08So now...
01:09I'll take it.
01:10You'll take it.
01:10You'll take it.
01:11How does that feel knowing that that kid who was in there in the restaurant trying to get on is now proving everybody that he was right?
01:20It feels good, but also I still feel like I still got a lot to prove.
01:26You know what I'm saying?
01:26I'm still like in a...
01:28We done kicked in the door.
01:29We in the door.
01:31Now it's time to renovate the house.
01:33You know what I'm saying?
01:33And get something out of it.
01:34You know what I'm saying?
01:36So it definitely feels good, though.
01:38It definitely feels good.
01:40You just turned 21 and you did something special for your 21st birthday.
01:44Where were you for your 21st birthday?
01:47You were in the studio with somebody.
01:48Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:49Dre.
01:49I was in the studio with Dr. Dre.
01:50Yeah.
01:51Dr. Dre.
01:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:53Hell of a 21st birthday.
01:54I mean...
01:55Hell of.
01:56I mean, how does...
01:57Okay, for a hip-hop kid, for all of these people who know who Dre is, how did it feel
02:03to be in that studio, in that session with Dre, not only knowing who you are, but vibing
02:09and feeling everything that you're doing?
02:11Because he gave you a hell of a cosign.
02:13Oh, man.
02:14That shit felt crazy.
02:16I was like, what the fuck?
02:18Like, I'm sorry.
02:20I was like, what the fuck is life?
02:22That shit was crazy.
02:23I mean, like, Dr. Dre is pretty much one of the, like...
02:28Well, I can say he's like Quincy Jones, but then again, you've chopped it up with Q, too.
02:32I mean...
02:33Yeah, for sure.
02:33You know, so, again, being so young in this game, and we're going to talk about kind of
02:38the perception of youth in hip-hop, but, like, to have that kind of cosign come from
02:44the doctor.
02:45I mean, he's grabbed 50 Cent.
02:46He's grabbed Eminem.
02:48You know, he's put out, you know, all of the NWA product that we know and everything
02:52else, for him to look at you and say, man, I think you got it.
02:55I mean, to quote him, he said, boy, this boy is hard.
02:58Like, and I know I've said the same things about you, but I ain't Dre.
03:02Yeah, for sure.
03:03So, when Dre say it, that's got to put a battery in your bag.
03:07Oh, yeah, for sure.
03:08Definitely.
03:11Damn, yeah.
03:12It's definitely like, what the fuck?
03:13You know what I'm saying?
03:14Like, that's the God.
03:16You know what I'm saying?
03:17So, it's definitely like, I'm like, man, a little old me, you know what I'm saying?
03:20So, it's just dope.
03:21If you, because I know we're doing a session here where we're going to play music for people
03:25because I want them to get a vibe.
03:26Okay.
03:28If you could play brand new You Just Meeting Dre, if you could play one record off of Lost
03:36Boy and say, Dre, I'd like you to hear my demo, what record would that be?
03:41Like, I don't know.
03:48Hmm.
03:49Maybe.
03:54Shit, I don't know.
03:55This one is, see?
03:56It's like telling you one of your kids.
03:57Maybe, it's probably R&P because Anderson's on it.
04:00You know what I'm saying?
04:01Because that's the connect.
04:02Okay, that makes sense.
04:04All right.
04:05Probably Have Mercy.
04:06Maybe.
04:07Have Mercy's fire, too.
04:08That's one of my favorites.
04:08I want to play one of them.
04:10A Thousand Words.
04:11A Thousand Words.
04:12How's that?
04:12That's my first one right here.
04:14Okay, dope.
04:14That's, I mean, there's something in your music where it's not just what people consider the
04:21young, they call it mumble, they call it new millennial, they call it, it's a bunch of
04:26names and none of them are really respectful.
04:29And then you step forward and a lot of people who had a lot to say about the new hip hop artist
04:35all ran to you and say, yo, this dude's different.
04:38Yeah.
04:39And we're going to talk a little bit more about that, but I want you guys to get a taste
04:44of it.
04:44For those of you who haven't downloaded it yet, cop that.
04:47All everybody on wild94.1.com, we're about to go in.
04:50Let's do Thousand Words first and let's vibe out why everybody's eating pizza and we're going
04:55to chill with YV and Cordae.
04:56I got pizza?
04:57Hell yeah, we do.
04:58Oh man, say less.
04:59It's right there behind that door.
05:01Say me a couple slices of pepperoni.
05:03Let's get that.
05:03Let's play Thousand Words.
05:05Let's get them something to eat.
05:06Let's go.
