The Alexcis Episode

[00:00:05] Speaker A: All right, we back at it. Homegrown radio, Chug Dizzle, dj head, where we at right now, man? [00:00:14] Speaker B: We already said studios. You know what I'm saying? [00:00:17] Speaker A: We're not at fab factory, by the way. [00:00:18] Speaker B: Yeah, we had to pull up on. [00:00:19] Speaker A: Our homie, man, man, Alexis. [00:00:22] Speaker C: Howdy. [00:00:23] Speaker B: We know him as Alexis. [00:00:25] Speaker A: I mean, but you called him Maj. [00:00:26] Speaker B: Before, so that was a name change. So before we get into the conversation. Cause you have pre existing fans. We play your song on the radio as Brown boy Maj. Talk about the titty boy two chain's name change. [00:00:38] Speaker A: Well, you could've said K. Kendrick Lamar. [00:00:40] Speaker B: Nah, damn, I wanna do titty boy two chains. [00:00:43] Speaker C: Okay, true. That's what I mean. To be honest, I was just Brown boy Maj. I thought it was just too, like, I already wanted to change that name. But one person validated the name change, or a few situations validated the name change, which was number one. A post Malone's manager hit up Kev and was like, yo, we got Marge on the post effect. [00:01:09] Speaker B: That's Drake. [00:01:10] Speaker D: Yeah. Yeah. [00:01:10] Speaker B: Shout out to Drake London. [00:01:12] Speaker C: I'm sorry if I didn't hit his voice correctly. I tried. [00:01:15] Speaker A: You fucked his wild. He looking at this like, that's how it sounds. [00:01:20] Speaker C: I probably sound like Conor McGregor or some shit. [00:01:22] Speaker D: My bad. [00:01:23] Speaker C: But, yeah, so, like, we were excited like, hell, yeah. And then next thing you know, we go to post Malone's album release party. It was really just an excuse to throw him a birthday party. And he comes up to us, he's like, bro, I'm not even gonna do that. Cause in my bad, bro, my bad, guys, it's a different maj. And we're like, oh, damn. But at the time, I wasn't even mad. Cause I'm chopping it up with Will. I am at the time. So I'm like, I don't care. I'm chopping it up with this guy right now. [00:01:49] Speaker D: It's cool. [00:01:49] Speaker C: But it was cool. [00:01:50] Speaker D: It was cool. [00:01:51] Speaker C: So that was the first time. And then the second time, which was the time I guess we did decide to change, was so Sal. I believe it was Salix. So hit up Kev and stuff was like, yo, bring him through. Let's listen to his stuff. He listens to it, everything. And he's like. He's like, what is this? What is this brown boy? He's like, you're not indian. And I was like, in my head, I'm like, have I been misinterpreting this my whole life? [00:02:19] Speaker B: No, no, he missed that. He not from LA. [00:02:23] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:02:23] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? [00:02:24] Speaker D: You know? [00:02:25] Speaker C: And I'm just, like, in my head. [00:02:26] Speaker D: Just. [00:02:26] Speaker C: I'm really in my head. Cause I'm not gonna lie too. I'm a little, like, nervous. Cause I'm like, I walked into this house where they got fucking marble statues in the fucking living room. I'm just like, this nice, eh? [00:02:36] Speaker D: This nice. [00:02:37] Speaker C: So, yeah, I'm just sitting there. He's like, yeah, what is this brown boy? He's like, you know, Nav's already the brown boy. I was like. I was like, all right, cool. It's like, yeah. I was like, it's just something I decided, man. You know, brown boy. Majin Buu. Maj. Short for Majin Buu. My favorite dragon Ball Z character. He's like, what's your real name? And I'm a little hesitant. Cause, like, I'm used to in high school, like, every time the teacher would ask me, like. Or the subteacher would be like, oh, Alexis. I'd be like, ah. And everyone laughs, the jokes. You feel me? So I'm used to that. And I'm like, alexis. He's like, how do you spell that? I say a l e x c I s. He's like, that's your name. He's like, beyonce. Drake. Justin Bieber. Alexis. And I was like, yeah, that's cool. That's cool. And then we just, like, left that, and then we're just thinking about things, and we're just like, you know what? Maybe, like, your music is a little serious. Like, it's not. Like, it's not bullshit. At least I don't think it is, you know? So. And we decided to change it next go round. [00:03:30] Speaker A: I mean, that's. That's dope that you were kind of already. You already had, like, the notion of to want to change, and those were confirmations for you because it could have been other way around where exactly? You were really rocking with the name. And then people like, yeah, we ain't fucking with it. [00:03:42] Speaker C: Well, no, when I came up with that name, it was just out of those, like, so I was in a part of this little collective called upper hand. Like, I was in high school. We were just. We were trying to be like, you know, odd future. We were trying to be like, you know, just like a cool little collective. [00:03:55] Speaker A: Out in Arizona. [00:03:56] Speaker C: Yeah, out in Arizona. And everyone was so dope. [00:03:58] Speaker D: They were. [00:03:58] Speaker C: I think they were. They were amazing. But I got. I got tired of some certain things. I was like, guys, why are we talking about, like, cars? We don't have bitches we don't fuck, chains we can't buy. Like, why? I was like, let's fucking. Let's name it. [00:04:13] Speaker D: Let's. [00:04:14] Speaker C: Let's do something, like, legit. Like what? You want to talk about us being broke? I dropped a song called Broke Boy, and like, that was in me being serious. And I was like, you know what? Let me put a bullshit ass name on there. And I was like, huh? What's some bullshit? Playboy cardi brown boy Maj? Boom. [00:04:28] Speaker A: Oh, and that's how the name come out. [00:04:29] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:29] Speaker C: So that's how it came about. [00:04:31] Speaker B: That's interesting. You spoke on. I mean, it's no secret. You got the D backs hat on. [00:04:35] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:36] Speaker B: You from Arizona? [00:04:37] Speaker C: Yes. D backs fucking. [00:04:39] Speaker B: Oh, you got a tattoo. Who would tattoo the Arizona diamondbacks on their skin? I don't understand. [00:04:45] Speaker D: Me. [00:04:46] Speaker B: Anyway, that's loyalty right there. You know, saying, but anyway, you from Arizona? What part of Arizona you from? [00:04:53] Speaker C: Phoenix. [00:04:54] Speaker B: Phoenix, Arizona. Now, you are, to me, dope. Like, you're talented. [00:05:00] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:05:00] Speaker B: I've told you this before. [00:05:01] Speaker C: That actually means a lot. I was always be second guessing. I was like, does this fool even fuck with me? [00:05:05] Speaker D: I don't know. [00:05:06] Speaker B: No, about his. [00:05:06] Speaker D: Yeah, don't worry about him. [00:05:08] Speaker A: He just got that resting. [00:05:09] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? I just look like this. But what's dope to me is I didn't realize how many more people were from Phoenix or were from Arizona. Like, people. I forgot the singer. What's the pop singer? She's a girl. [00:05:23] Speaker C: Jordan Sparks. [00:05:24] Speaker B: Jordan Sparks? [00:05:24] Speaker D: Yes. [00:05:25] Speaker C: She's from Chester Bennington. I love. [00:05:30] Speaker B: Bro, that's where I was going. I love Chester Bennington. Recipes. Lincoln park fan. [00:05:34] Speaker C: In elementary school, I used to sign my name. Like, we had. They made us practice our signatures. Like, do whatever you want. You can put your name like this. I just put, like, Alexis Villa and then, like, LP circle, like. Cause I just really like Lincoln Park. [00:05:45] Speaker B: I was literally going to Chester, bro. I didn't know that, like, doing, like. And I've been a Lincoln park fan since, like, high school. Right. But did you draw some of that influence from him, from a sonic standpoint? [00:05:56] Speaker C: Honestly, I don't. I never really thought about that. I think he's just too legit, like. But I think it's more of a standpoint of everything I listen to. [00:06:04] Speaker D: Cause I just listened to everything. [00:06:05] Speaker C: Everything. Like, I listen to country, I listen to pop music. I listen to classic rock. I listen to a lot of things. And it kind of sucks because just me going somewhere else with the influence thing. I feel like my influences pushes me to make, as Salas has called it, urban pop. And it sometimes can get confused. And people be like, oh, you're a rapper. I'm like, I don't think I'm a rapper. I'd be doing no bars whatsoever. Hell, no. I'm not that witty. And it sucks. Cause, like, I've getting some people telling me, like, oh, bro, like, do you feel like you be like you're a culture vulture? I'm like, nah, bro. Like, I'm just me. Like, I'm actually trying to make pop music. [00:06:40] Speaker B: You know what's interesting? I would classify you not even as a rap, because, for instance, I get asked about blast all the time from people that's not from the west coast, right? And every time they ask me, is blast a rapper? I'm like, no. Where he's a singer? I said, not really. I consider him to be more like a. A vocalist. [00:06:58] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:06:59] Speaker B: And that's what I think you are, a vocalist. [00:07:00] Speaker C: Yeah, that's what I think, too. We're just. We're just people making music. [00:07:03] Speaker D: We just. [00:07:03] Speaker C: We're just artists. I really just think it's just being an artist. I don't know. [00:07:07] Speaker A: How do you tap into, is there an Arizona or a phoenix sound? And if so, how do you tap into that? How would you describe. [00:07:13] Speaker C: Most definitely not Arizona. We're. I mean, it sucks that I even say this, but we're just in shambles. We're just scrambling. Like, everyone, I think, is too busy trying to be that guy. Like, you know what I mean? Just trying to be the sound. But recently, we've had people like Sam Opoku, which he just does his own thing. He's more of, like, a afrobeat type of guy. Very soulful, man. There's shit. I mean, Samari sin is not from there, but shit. I've known Samara sin, like, for, like, a few years now. And she from there, and she has her own fucking sound. She killing it right now. She going crazy. And then there's me, and then there's everybody else. Just either they want to sound like they're from Chicago, they're from Atlanta, or they're even from here. [00:07:55] Speaker B: But I think everybody goes through that. [00:07:57] Speaker A: Every region deals with that. [00:07:59] Speaker C: But it's cool, though, the fact that out here is like. Like. Like, even when we were in Arizona, it's like, oh, bro. Throwing some west coast shit, which we're considering stuff from LA, which I think is so cool. Or like, I think it's even cool. Like, oh, bro. Throwing some drill shit from the east coast, you know, I think that's so fucking cool to me. Where in Arizona is, like, throwing. I don't. I don't even know, actually, what we would say. Like, shit, I don't know. [00:08:20] Speaker A: Diamondback shit. [00:08:21] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:08:22] Speaker C: Some desert shit. I don't fucking know. [00:08:23] Speaker A: But do you feel a responsibility to create that sound? Or you just worried about just music and just having people gravitate to who you are now? [00:08:31] Speaker C: My responsibility to me is just to keep doing this and somehow find a way across from cool people like you guys, just still surviving, maintaining this beautiful weight. You feel me? Make sure my mom's good, all kinds of shit like that. That's my responsibility to myself. I can care less about trying to take over a little pond when I want the whole fucking ocean. [00:08:50] Speaker A: I wanted to. I mean, I can't shout out to our guy, PB, who's filming this. I wanted to start off with great guy. [00:08:55] Speaker C: That guy? [00:08:56] Speaker A: Yeah, he is a great guy. [00:08:57] Speaker C: Beautiful, man. [00:08:58] Speaker A: Okay. [00:08:59] Speaker D: All right. There you go. [00:09:00] Speaker A: Get a close up on that. I wanted to give you a hug, man. I wanted to give you a hug. I'm not gonna move out of frame, but I wanted to. [00:09:07] Speaker C: Want me to come to you. [00:09:08] Speaker A: I mean, hey, I cut to you. [00:09:09] Speaker D: I cut to you. [00:09:09] Speaker A: I feel like you need this new album. [00:09:11] Speaker C: No, you gotta lean back. Lean back. No, just kidding. That's wild, this new album. [00:09:15] Speaker A: There we go. [00:09:16] Speaker D: Bring it in. [00:09:16] Speaker B: Bring it in. [00:09:17] Speaker D: There we go. [00:09:17] Speaker A: Feel like you need the hug, though, man. [00:09:19] Speaker D: Yeah. Yeah. [00:09:20] Speaker A: All right. Who can I run to? [00:09:21] Speaker C: Oh, that's what the hug for. [00:09:22] Speaker A: I'm gonna tell you why. [00:09:23] Speaker D: Okay. [00:09:24] Speaker A: Cause I felt like there was a lot of. A lot of, you know, there's heartbreak, there's loyalty issues. There's a lot of this that. Is this all within things that's going on in your life? And if so, who the fuck are you trying to run to? [00:09:37] Speaker C: That's the question about it is, like, who can I run to? Is just more of, like, after all, like you said, maybe loyal to things, or after, like, turning up, going to a club after this, this and that. And after it's all said and done, whatever, you're by yourself, like, who can you actually run to? Like, who's really there? [00:09:52] Speaker A: Gotcha. [00:09:52] Speaker C: And that's why, if, you know, it's on the project, it starts off, like, just really up tempo and it ends up slow. And the last song's called lonely on the moon. [00:09:59] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:10:00] Speaker C: You know what I mean? So, I don't know. It's more of a question. [00:10:02] Speaker A: Okay. [00:10:03] Speaker C: You know, I haven't. I feel like I've answered that question for myself. You know, I actually luckily feel I have a bunch of people. They might not be happy that I run to them, but, you know, luckily I can. [00:10:11] Speaker A: At least you got that. That's where I was kind of going with it, is, you know, hearing the album and kind of hearing the different vibes that you go, you know, I kind of get that emo feel as well. [00:10:19] Speaker D: True. [00:10:19] Speaker A: But, you know, I feel like if you answered that question, then that's ultimately. [00:10:23] Speaker D: That'S all it is. [00:10:24] Speaker C: But I'm not emo because I'm sad or I don't try to be that. I feel like I like to be vulnerable because I feel I'm a person where I like to call my friends and be like, after I hang up, hey, I love you. I'm a motherfucker that really checks on my friends that I know will be in their room by themselves or just they be going through shit. I like to, hey, bro, you good? And I try my best to like, hey, bro, like, you want to hang out? And they be. I know they be in their own head of shit. And that's why I try to be. I just want to be a person where it's like, bro, it's cool to reach out and be like, hey, bro, like, let's hang out. Let's do something, or it's cool to tell somebody you love them. Like, that's what I want. [00:10:56] Speaker A: You wear your emotions in your sleeve, right? [00:10:58] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:10:58] Speaker A: Your emo. So that's what it is. [00:11:00] Speaker C: I would consider emo just being, like, satisfied. [00:11:03] Speaker A: Emo is the term. I mean, a lot of people look at it as sad, but it's emotional, and you're an emotional person, and that's not a bad thing. It's actually a good thing because you're vulnerable. You're able to display that. And it's funny that you name the project. Who can I run to? Cause I feel like you're the ultimate person that people can run to. [00:11:19] Speaker D: Oh, yeah. [00:11:20] Speaker A: When they're going through stuff. [00:11:21] Speaker C: Yeah, for sure. [00:11:21] Speaker A: You're asking this question, but you're ultimately that guy as well. [00:11:25] Speaker D: No. [00:11:25] Speaker C: Yeah, not for sure. [00:11:26] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:11:26] Speaker C: My girl be like, who you talking to? So so and so. They got so and so and so going on. She's like, it's been 2 hours. Yeah, so so and so be so so and so, man. [00:11:35] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:11:35] Speaker B: So do you think that that is something that's sustainable, though? Because I think the more people you get to know the harder that is. [00:11:42] Speaker C: I've been able to cut my circle. I've been able to really. I know who I want to. That's why, like, I feel. That's why I like being over here. I feel like. [00:11:52] Speaker B: What do you mean over here? [00:11:53] Speaker C: Out here in la, like, not being home. Cause I'm a people pleaser. I know that. I like to accommodate everybody. I like to make sure that everyone else is happy before I'm happy. That's who I am. But the thing is, now I realize I just want to make people happy. That make me happy. I want to fucking make sure how they say growing up, treat people how you want to be treated. That's how I treat people. And I realized some motherfuckers fucking suck. I've been friends with some people, and as I've matured a few years, I realized there's some people I'm friends with. I'm like, bro, they low key are not good people. I'm not going to tell them that, though. Cause I'm going to let them keep doing their thing. But I'm just like, I might see it. And I'm like, I'm good, but do. [00:12:29] Speaker A: You cut yourself off? Do you cut yourself off from or do you let it continue to go? [00:12:33] Speaker C: I mean, I cut myself off pretty much from it. Like, I. [00:12:36] Speaker B: You just pull your energy back. [00:12:37] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm just like, I'm good. Like, I'm fine. [00:12:39] Speaker B: When is the point where you find that you have to let them know, like, if they're being detrimental to themselves? [00:12:45] Speaker C: I think everyone has a little bit of common sense and they realize, like, nah. Like, nah, that ain't the song. No, well, I think everyone I've dealt with, maybe everything, everyone I've dealt with, you know, I've never had to verbally be like, hey, bro, I don't fuck with you no more, bro. [00:12:58] Speaker A: Yeah, there we go. I know what you doing, dawg. Yeah, hearing the music, I'm like, oh, shit. Who was that for? [00:13:06] Speaker B: Well, speaking of. [00:13:07] Speaker A: Yeah, please. This is what we call a segue. Ladies and gentlemen. [00:13:12] Speaker B: The offended song is one of my favorite songs on the project. When I first time I heard it, I'm like, this shit is hard. It is not even the fact that you expressing yourself with whoever you expressing yourself, too. But I think everybody has that story. Everybody feels like that. Like, bro, you misplayed your hand. Me personally, me and, you know, my team were dealing with someone who monetized our relationship, and they wanted, like, $5,000 for something that they did they? [00:13:39] Speaker D: Did. [00:13:40] Speaker B: I gave her the $5,000, but it was like, now you monetize the relationship, so now I can't. Now it's just. Now it's just that. Yeah, so now that. It's just that. Okay, I'm paying for services rendered now. That's all it is. There is no relationship beyond that. Right. [00:13:58] Speaker C: Not for show. [00:13:59] Speaker B: I feel like a lot of people misplay that. [00:14:02] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:14:03] Speaker B: Like, if you don't necessarily see the opportunity that's in front of you, or you might be a team player and then be like, oh, well, now I need to get paid for x, Y, and z. It's like, everybody needs to live. Yeah, but what I took from that song was. It wasn't necessarily your personal experience that I took from. You can speak on that if you want to, but I took from it. That's something that's relatable. And that goes back to what you just said. Like, you make relatable shit for sure. [00:14:27] Speaker C: I mean. Yeah, everything you just said, I feel like, categorizes that song beautifully, and I feel that's why it speaks to a lot of people, because everyone I've showed that song to, even before I was out, was like, bro, let me hop on that. Let me hop on that. Like, I probably could show you ten different versions of shit, you know? And I was just like, I don't know. [00:14:46] Speaker D: I don't know. [00:14:46] Speaker C: And what's funny, too, is, like, in all honesty, Zoe's homie honcho. [00:14:50] Speaker B: Like, shanta honcho, bro. [00:14:52] Speaker C: I don't know what the fuck it is about this guy, but I just. [00:14:54] Speaker B: I fucking love that, bro. [00:14:56] Speaker C: He'll call me out of nowhere. He's like, what up, gang? What's going on? I'm here with wifey. Can we hang up? You want to hang out? Trying to pull up on you? I was like, I'm with wifey, and she kind of just wants to hang with me right now. But, no, it would just be chopping it up. Like, there's been times where we'll call each other literally, like, in a ten minute span, like, three times, just laughing and shit, just doing shit. But that's why everybody else that I had on that record was like. I was just like, I feel like we've already made a song together. [00:15:27] Speaker B: Like, you know, you gotta stop moving in your chair. You fucking up the view. [00:15:30] Speaker C: Oh, I'm sorry. Let me pull a chuck. [00:15:31] Speaker A: Boom. You told me to sit back and relax. [00:15:34] Speaker D: I know. [00:15:34] Speaker A: Put your seatbelt on, and you gotta. [00:15:36] Speaker B: Let the people see. [00:15:37] Speaker D: Yeah, they gotcha. [00:15:38] Speaker C: Okay, right here, right here. [00:15:39] Speaker D: Bam. [00:15:40] Speaker C: This stance is not moving. [00:15:41] Speaker B: All right, continue. [00:15:42] Speaker C: Boom. [00:15:42] Speaker D: But, yeah, no. [00:15:43] Speaker C: And then, like, for some reason, like, I just thought it was just so organic and cool that honcho got on there, because, like, that fool has never asked me for shit. He's never nothing. And he's always just been like, a bro. Let me pull up on you. Hey, let's hang. [00:15:54] Speaker D: Let's. Whatever. [00:15:55] Speaker C: And then there's been times where I'm like. I'm like, hey, I'm busy. Never fucking felt weird. He was like, all right, cool. I feel like just on some grown man shit, this is like, bro. It's like me and my boy Benji over here. Like, there's times where I'm just like, yo, let's hang. He's like, I gotta mount this tv, bro. I'm like, I can help you. I gotta mount this tv, bro. [00:16:12] Speaker D: Damn. [00:16:13] Speaker C: But, nah, that's just. But that's just. [00:16:15] Speaker B: Do you think that people. Do you think that people understand in the moment that they're misplaying their hand? [00:16:24] Speaker C: Yes and no. I think emotions blind people. I feel like, me too. I feel like definitely people. Money blinds people. I feel like people's actual intentions blind them as well. Like, I don't think people see. Like, I have this convo. Like, even with salas. Like, I'm just, like. I'm just a genuine ass person. I feel. And like you said, I wear my heart on my sleeve. Like, the fact y'all came here, I'm super fucking thankful. I want to make sure I'm here before you to accommodate you, make sure you're good, blah, blah, because you didn't have to fucking do this. You know what I mean? And it's like, what the fuck? I look like looking like an asshole, being late on you and fucking this and that. But, yeah, I definitely feel some people definitely misplay their hand because of bullshit. [00:17:02] Speaker B: When it comes to songs, do you always pull from personal experiences? Because you spoke earlier about people rapping about shit they don't have. I also heard. I forgot which song it was. I meant to write it down, but it was during the listening. You played it, and you were talking about a girl who. Her designer. Yeah, I forgot what record, what song. [00:17:24] Speaker C: I'll be talking about a hotel lobby. [00:17:26] Speaker B: It was hotel lobby. [00:17:28] Speaker C: Sometimes I make songs just for, like. [00:17:30] Speaker B: That's why I'm asking. Is it always pulled from personal, or is it aspirational? [00:17:34] Speaker D: It's 55th. It's. [00:17:36] Speaker C: I guess it's third. Just a third of all. It's like one could be manifesting, like, I don't know if you notice I always talk about a Tesla. Like, I'm gonna fuck about Ferrari. I wanna fucking Tesla. And, like. Cause that shit's cool. I mean, sure, by the time I get it, I won't be able to, like, not drive it. And like, it's just gonna drive itself. Cause I think you were talking about how it's gonna have a camera on you now or something. [00:17:58] Speaker B: It drives itself now. [00:17:59] Speaker C: Oh, it's still do as long as I do that. That's why I want it. [00:18:03] Speaker D: Trust me. [00:18:03] Speaker B: It's life changing. [00:18:04] Speaker C: Yeah, I bet a car in general's life changing. I don't even got one. [00:18:11] Speaker A: So. But speaking on stuff like that, right. And I'm gonna go specifically to hotel lobby when you're talking about these things that either you're trying to manifest or let's go with the manifest, right. [00:18:21] Speaker C: But to me, I could actually explain to you how I made that replay. [00:18:25] Speaker A: Go ahead, go ahead. [00:18:26] Speaker C: It's actually. Sometimes there's times where like, I know there's a cool motherfucker in the room and they want to make a cool song. And in my head I'm just like, I can make you what I want to make you. And you probably won't like it. Cause I know that's not where your head's at. So I'm like, you want something cool, I'm gonna give you something cool. [00:18:41] Speaker A: The people pleaser. [00:18:42] Speaker D: Yeah. You feel me? Yeah. [00:18:43] Speaker C: But also, I'm like, I just know good music. So, like, that, that's not. [00:18:46] Speaker A: No, there's nothing wrong with that, by the way. Especially as a writer for somebody that's written as well. Like, that's something you have to get into that bag. And there's nothing wrong with that. I was looking. I always look at from a personal side as well, because, you know, you spoke on your lady, you know, relationship. [00:18:59] Speaker C: I'm not trying to manifest two women at a hotel. [00:19:01] Speaker A: That's where I get to. So when she hears records, like. [00:19:07] Speaker C: Clean that shit up. Because clean up, we be talking about shit. We'd be talking about shit. And then she'd be like, she's at a point now where she doesn't get mad. And it's cool because I like, we've talked about a little bit. I'm like, why? She's like, in your fucking underwear eating lucky charms, watching fucking chick flick on tv right now. Like, I know. I know what the fuck you ain't doing. I was like, you fucking damn near have a stroke. When you're in front of ten people, like, what you gonna do with two business? [00:19:35] Speaker A: She knows the real you. [00:19:37] Speaker D: Yeah, bro. [00:19:38] Speaker C: Honestly, I fucking suck in front of people, bro. Like, I need. Yeah, there's no way that could ever happen. [00:19:44] Speaker B: I'm not cool now. Do you want to start with? [00:19:47] Speaker A: No, I'm still. I'm just still on. On that because I think that's an interesting perspective to have, especially somebody that's an entertainer in this business. How do you deal with that? If you deal with anxiety or you're not a people person to that extent, how do you maneuver through this, especially with the album, the rollout, having to go here, having to go there, do different shows, things of that nature? [00:20:09] Speaker C: I feel now I've just honestly shout out to Salus, I'm be real. This is the first time I really feel like I can just be myself, and I've never had. He's never questioned me to be nothing. It's craziest thing ever. He's like, hey, you want this? I'm like, and in my head, he. And he's like, I know you want to say yes, but you could say no. And even if it accommodates everybody, I'm gonna make sure they all do that shit for you. And, like, now that's been in the back of, like, in the back of my head, I'm like, all right, cool, cool. I'm like, I could still be me, but there's certain things now where I'm just like, nah, I don't gotta do that. I'm cool. I'm cool. You know what I mean? So now, like, I just did Gina's thing, right? I've did Kev's thing. And I feel like if you can tell, there's a few podcasts I've done before where I'm, like, talking like this, like, yeah, cool, man. [00:20:54] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:20:55] Speaker C: I'm trying to like. Cause that's what I see. But now I realize, like, wait, bro. [00:20:58] Speaker B: Like, just be yourself. [00:20:59] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:20:59] Speaker A: Like, shedding the image and just relying on yourself. [00:21:01] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:21:02] Speaker C: Like, if I want to cry on camera, I'm a fucking cry on camera. It's okay. Tears of joy is not. [00:21:06] Speaker A: It's good for clicks too, by the way. [00:21:08] Speaker D: Yeah, I guess so. [00:21:09] Speaker A: It gets the people going. It gets the people going. [00:21:12] Speaker C: You feel me? [00:21:13] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:21:14] Speaker B: Your perspective. Well, it's a couple things I want to talk about when it comes to the album, but the what is, like, okay, shout to Cyprus, too. I want to shout out to Cypress Moreno. Nice, man for the. With the hotel lobby thing. [00:21:28] Speaker D: Too. [00:21:28] Speaker B: But when it comes to your selection of production, this album is produced really well. [00:21:34] Speaker D: Oh, thank you. [00:21:35] Speaker B: I feel like the sonic of it is cohesive. I got to hear, like, bits and P. You would play me shit like, bits and pieces in the studio or whatever, but I think once. Once it was finalized, I'm like, okay, this is your sound. [00:21:48] Speaker D: Okay. [00:21:48] Speaker B: Was that something that you thought of ahead of time, or you can't. Y'all came up with it in real time? [00:21:52] Speaker C: I would say it's more like. Like, you stylists, everyone coming in, hearing it, and I listen like, yeah, you do listen. Like, I listen. Like, I'm just like, I'm not gonna be that. Like, okay. Like, you know, like, I just. I just like making the music. And that's the thing, I'm not gonna lie, is that I definitely need somebody to help me. Like, be like, hey, man, you should do that because I'm gonna do every beat. You play me a beat, I'm gonna load it up. [00:22:16] Speaker B: I'm gonna do every beat is trash. [00:22:18] Speaker C: Even if it's trash, I'm gonna do it. I'm not gonna hurt someone's feelings. No, just kidding. I don't like it. If not, there's times where, like, I don't like it, I won't do it. But even if it speaks like, it's like, hey, man, we kind of need an up tempo record right now. We need something in this BPM. I'll know that. But then I might hear something that's completely far left ballad, and it's speaking to me. I'm like, let me just do that real quick, though. You know what I mean? And that's the thing, is, like, it always kind of heads to that. So I kind of. I kind of definitely need somebody to be like, hey, let's do this to it. [00:22:48] Speaker D: Let's do this. Let's do this. [00:22:49] Speaker C: Because I just like making the music. I'm not here to fucking. [00:22:52] Speaker A: You're like, I'm the talent. [00:22:53] Speaker C: Let me just be talented, I guess. [00:22:55] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:22:55] Speaker C: I just want to make music and have fun and be drunk. [00:22:58] Speaker B: Now, the other thing on the album is you talk about. You make these references a lot when it comes to permethazine and pills and stuff like that. Drinking and drinking. Um, that's all over the album. That's not even just one specific song. Like, that's. That's all through the album. [00:23:15] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:23:15] Speaker B: When it comes to that type of stuff, do you worry about health, or do you even think about that? When it comes to real life application of those things. [00:23:26] Speaker A: How old are you? [00:23:27] Speaker D: Me? [00:23:27] Speaker C: I'm a beautiful 27. [00:23:30] Speaker A: He's nothing about that shit. [00:23:31] Speaker B: That's true. [00:23:32] Speaker C: No, but. But in all honesty, though, like, I talk about it because it's shit I really dealt with. Like, I really, like, at one point, I thought that shit was so cool. I'm be real. I thought it was cool, right? And that, like, that's why. Oh, shit. [00:23:44] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:23:45] Speaker C: Let's sip some lean or this, this and that. Now it's like, I enjoy. I'm not gonna lie. I enjoy it. Like, it's cool, but I don't do it. I'm be honest with you. Like, I have not bought a. Like, a bottle of alcohol and I don't know how many years. [00:23:57] Speaker D: Really? Really? Yeah. [00:23:58] Speaker A: Oh, but you probably get it for free. [00:24:00] Speaker C: Yeah, I get it for free. They love this. [00:24:02] Speaker D: They love it. [00:24:02] Speaker A: I haven't bought it at all, but I get it for free. [00:24:05] Speaker C: Yeah, but, you know, but that's what I'm saying, though. Like, I don't even do that. [00:24:08] Speaker D: Like. [00:24:08] Speaker C: Or I don't. I don't. Like, you know, people just always, whatever. And luckily, I'm smart now where I'm just like, nah, I'm good. Like, I be telling a lot of people is like, bro, when I'm at the crib, I place on everything I love, not one drop of alcohol, not wanting nothing. The worst thing I'm gonna do is consume some hash browns or some shit. You know what I mean? [00:24:25] Speaker B: Is that, like, illegal? Cause I eat potato. [00:24:28] Speaker A: He talking about some real ass. [00:24:30] Speaker B: I don't know what the fuck hash browns are. [00:24:31] Speaker C: No, I'm 40, nigga. [00:24:33] Speaker A: I don't. You know what I'm saying? [00:24:37] Speaker C: Nah, it's just that yesterday I needed a quick breakfast. Cause I had a rush over. [00:24:41] Speaker B: So we talking about potatoes. [00:24:42] Speaker C: And I look at the hashed potatoes, and I'm like, what's in here? And I just see a box of hash browns. I'm like, let me pop six of them bitches in real quick. [00:24:50] Speaker B: See, he using words that I don't. [00:24:52] Speaker A: I got you. [00:24:52] Speaker D: I feel you. [00:24:53] Speaker A: Nah, he talk about hash browns, potato. [00:24:54] Speaker B: Potatoes, they come out the ground. [00:24:56] Speaker D: Exactly. [00:24:56] Speaker A: It's not shrewd hearts. It ain't no. No strainer weed. [00:24:59] Speaker D: You know what I'm saying? [00:25:00] Speaker B: Like, you peel them. [00:25:01] Speaker C: Trish Joseph Mason. [00:25:03] Speaker D: Okay. [00:25:03] Speaker B: I bet. [00:25:04] Speaker C: But, yeah, no, but so, like, I'm not gonna lie. [00:25:07] Speaker B: I'm that old. [00:25:08] Speaker D: Dang. [00:25:08] Speaker C: I'll admit it. I'll partake here and there if I'm feeling it. Like. Like, yeah, fuck it. Why not? [00:25:13] Speaker D: Why not? [00:25:14] Speaker C: But that's when I'm out and about, and I'm just having a cool time. And I feel like I've learned now to be like, nah, I'm cool. I don't need that. I don't need that right now. So I feel good. [00:25:24] Speaker A: I think that's a good mentality to have as long as you're understanding it again, you talking to two old heads, right? I've been sober almost eight years, so, like, I've been where you're at. [00:25:34] Speaker B: I know you never even heard of drunk Chuck. [00:25:37] Speaker A: Drunk Chuck is a whole nother different thing. So I see you. [00:25:41] Speaker B: You probably have. [00:25:43] Speaker A: I seen you where I was at that time when I started to make the decision to kind of cut it off. And one of the things I started realizing, it's not a preachy moment not to say, hey, you need to stop. [00:25:52] Speaker D: Doing this and that. [00:25:52] Speaker A: But I noticed that a lot of people end up coming back to this way where it's like, they slow down and just realize that moderation is the better way to go versus going hand. You know what I'm saying? [00:26:02] Speaker C: Yeah, no, for sure. And like I said, I think it's more of just, like, when I drink and stuff is just comfortability. Like, if you notice, I'm not sweating. I'm not telling this. Hey, hey, I need a bottle before they get here. There's no cup in my hand. Cause I'm actually comfortable, like, around you guys. Like, I'm. And the thing is, like, it's not. Sometimes it's not that I'm not comfortable, because I don't know the person. It's just maybe me, like, just trying to understand this shit. You know what I mean? Cause a lot of times I'll be forgetting, like, oh, wow. Like, I actually am doing shit a. Yeah. Like, I'll be forgetting that zo is that motherfucker. And people from Arizona are like, how the fuck you get a song with Zoe? I'm like, that's my guy. That's my manager's artist, too. What are you talking about? That's just a cool guy. But, yeah, so I'd just be forgetting that shit. And, like. And I think a lot of it is, too, is I've had the records with t pain. I've had the records with Wiz and snow. That's life flip, right? [00:26:53] Speaker A: That was a lot. You saw that flex. I did shit like that. [00:26:56] Speaker B: T pain is a whole less. [00:27:00] Speaker C: But this is how I see it, though. Like, you would think as, like, an artist. Like, oh, you get a song with those people, you're out of here. [00:27:06] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:06] Speaker C: Where's my Tesla, man? [00:27:08] Speaker B: That's. That's the average perception is once you do this or you do that, then you go to the next level. [00:27:13] Speaker A: You famously rich. [00:27:14] Speaker C: Yeah, but, um, like, after this, I'm sally certain. I'm like, bro, let's get the next one going. Like, I'm not trying to wait and see if this shit does it for me. [00:27:22] Speaker D: Let's. [00:27:22] Speaker C: Let's keep it going. [00:27:23] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:27:24] Speaker B: When it comes to you, I'm glad you spoke on as far as the moderation thing when it comes to consumption and stuff like that. Yeah, but also, like, we just talked to schoolboy Q, right? And he talked about having crazy withdrawals going through. Like, have you had any crazy, like, withdrawal stories or anything? Like, where you had a close call or maybe over consumption or you don't remember a day? [00:27:43] Speaker D: Or. [00:27:44] Speaker C: I hate to say this, like, this sounds like. [00:27:46] Speaker D: Like. [00:27:47] Speaker C: So I'm gonna say two things about this. I have. I feel a very strong fucking mind. Like, a very strong mind. And there's times where, like, I see people, like, be fucking doing some shit and they're like. And freaking out. Like, I got a hospital. I'm like, what are you going through? And then what? I'm like, bro, I've been going through that shit for two days. And I thought it was normal, but, like, you know what I mean? But, like, in my head, I'm like, oh, you good, bro? You're just dehydrated. Or you're this, this and that, right? So, I mean, maybe that, but also, fuck. [00:28:12] Speaker D: What was gonna say? [00:28:13] Speaker C: I'd be forgetting shit. But, like, yeah, I don't. The craziest withdrawal or craziest thing that's ever happened to me off any substance is weed, which is crazy. That's why I don't smoke. [00:28:22] Speaker A: Paranoid. [00:28:23] Speaker C: It's everything, bro. Like, I fuck, I don't fucking. I don't be knowing. [00:28:27] Speaker B: Was it regular weed? [00:28:28] Speaker C: I hope so. [00:28:28] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:28:29] Speaker B: It was hash browns. See, now you don't play with me. Cause I don't. [00:28:32] Speaker C: No, I just remember I worked at Carl's junior a long time ago. I worked at Carl's junior, and this is the time, like, I was low key, staying on my homies couch in his garage and mind that this garage is disgusting. He has like ten dogs and they probably pissed the shit all over it. But this is where I was staying at the time, bro. You know, this is where I was staying. [00:28:51] Speaker A: There's no judging at all. [00:28:55] Speaker C: I just want to paint the picture. And I'm getting off work at Carl's junior, and I'm being nice. I'm like, I'll make it 20 cheese double cheeseburgers to take back home. So, like, to feed, like, his whole famine shit and mine. And I'm a fucking. I'm pretty much, like, what, 17 years old at this time? 18, whatever. And I go. And, like, we're smoking. I hit it once. I hit the blunt once. I just go like this. [00:29:15] Speaker A: Oh, shit. [00:29:16] Speaker C: And I'm just like. And then I know where I hear, like, I'm like, what the fuck? And I'm like, all right, just close your eyes. [00:29:22] Speaker D: You'll be good. [00:29:22] Speaker C: Heart palpitation, bro. It was weird. And then I'm like. I'm like, maybe you're just hungry. I try to eat the burger. I'm just. I can't eat this. And then I just remember closing my eyes. I'll just go to sleep. As I go to sleep, it would literally feel like I kept falling. Like, actual falling. [00:29:36] Speaker D: Yeah, bro. [00:29:37] Speaker C: And, like. [00:29:38] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:29:38] Speaker C: And falling and falling and falling. And then at one point, I focused, like, oh, shit. And then, like. And I'm like a bro. Like, at the time, you know, I was like, no homo, bro. Feel my heart. He's like, bro. I was like, feel my heart. [00:29:49] Speaker D: He goes. [00:29:50] Speaker C: He's like, oh, no. That motherfucker beating, bro. It's crazy. And after that, like, I stopped smoking. Never. Never smoked. [00:29:56] Speaker B: Really? [00:29:56] Speaker C: Yeah, I don't smoke. I haven't smoked in, fuck, like, ten years. [00:30:00] Speaker B: So do you think that had that experience. You have had that experience with a lean or peel or something else you might have had the same way. You like, I'm cool. [00:30:08] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:30:09] Speaker C: I just never. [00:30:09] Speaker B: So I take one bad experience, but. [00:30:11] Speaker C: Also, I'm not a fucking. I'm not a fucking. I'm gonna pop ten fucking zans. Five zans. Like, I'm not gonna lie to you. If I pop a zan, I'm gonna crush a little quarter. I'm gonna ingest it, and it's gonna be cool. Like. Like, that's how I would do it. You know what I mean? That's cause to me, I was just like, I'm really taking this for what it's meant for, like, in my head, and, you know, and I. And I know I have anxiety and then. [00:30:31] Speaker B: Have you ever been diagnosed with ADHD? [00:30:34] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:30:34] Speaker B: Have you ever been prescribed anything? [00:30:36] Speaker C: Yeah, bro. So I think this kind of fucked me up. So I actually went to, like, this little rehab like, mini juvie type situation. Cause in high school, I kept getting in trouble, and I'd question everything. Like, I'd be like, what kind of. [00:30:50] Speaker A: What kind of trouble? Like, talking back or, like, no. [00:30:53] Speaker C: Like, I would be like, why the. [00:30:54] Speaker D: Fuck I gotta go? [00:30:55] Speaker C: Like, why are you sending me to class right now? [00:30:57] Speaker D: Or. [00:30:57] Speaker C: No, we had a thing called sweep. So if you were a minute late, they'd send you into the room like this, all white, and you would just look in front of you the whole. That whole class period. [00:31:06] Speaker A: Oh, damn. [00:31:06] Speaker C: Then that's all you do. You didn't get to work on work, no homework, no nothing. You just did that. And that would happen to me all the fucking time by a minute. And I'm like. I'm like, what the fuck? You know? [00:31:16] Speaker D: Like. [00:31:16] Speaker C: Cause I, like, talk to my friends, whatever the fuck. And they kept doing that. And then I got to a point. I'm like, why the fuck am I going to this shit? I ended up going. The first time I ever watched the Avengers, they did that shit to me. I said, fuck that shit. The Avengers just came out. I walked to the nearest fucking movie theater, and I'm in that bitch. I watched Avengers. I came back, I went to class, the prince was like, alexis, where were you? We were all looking for you. [00:31:37] Speaker D: I was like. [00:31:37] Speaker C: I was taking a shit. She was like. She's like, what do you mean? She's like, we looked everywhere. I said. She was like, what do you mean? Where were you? I was like, I take my shits like this. What are you talking about? It helps. [00:31:49] Speaker B: Are you serious? [00:31:50] Speaker C: I swear to God. But she also loved me. She was that principal that, like, I think she knew. She like. I remember her telling my mom to her face. She's like. She's like, look, I know Alexis is a handful, and I don't know how, but he's gonna be something one day. And I remember her saying that, and, like, that kind of boosted my ego. I'm like, I fucking know that shit, too. Cause, like, to me, I was like, why can't I go get lunch at Wiener schnitzel? Why I gotta settle for this bullshit ass taco salad when Weiner Schnitzel is right across the street? So they just be like that. I'm like, bro, I came back. [00:32:17] Speaker B: So when you got prescribed. Yeah, I mean, what they prescribe you, bro? [00:32:22] Speaker C: Vivant, 75 milligrams. [00:32:25] Speaker D: What is that? [00:32:25] Speaker B: What's Vyvanse? [00:32:26] Speaker C: Vyvanse is like a heavier Adderall, and they gave me the biggest dose ever. [00:32:32] Speaker A: 75. [00:32:33] Speaker D: 75? [00:32:33] Speaker C: Like, before you could even. They didn't even test it out on me. And now that, as I'm an adult, I think about that. Is that legal? [00:32:38] Speaker B: Were you 17? [00:32:40] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:32:41] Speaker C: So check this out. At the time, then, like, the. I kept getting in trouble in school and shit. First, bro, I got in trouble because I used to wear. Enjoy, like, skateboarding. [00:32:50] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:32:50] Speaker C: And they would just be like, no, you can't wear that. I'm like, bro, I'm not wearing the pandas. Fucking private school. No, I went to just a. Just a regular public school. I don't know why. They just. I don't fucking know what it was. [00:33:03] Speaker A: I think it's, like, authority. [00:33:04] Speaker C: I think what it was, too, is I pull up in class, and I pass all my. All my shit. Like, bro. Like, I remember when we were learning about Alexander the great and, like, all Christianity and shit. I'm like, bro, I know about Prince Charlemagne's friend. Christianity bears sword. I know about all these motherfuckers doing because I like shit like that. Like, I liked it. So I feel that kind of pissed them off. I don't know. But, yeah, so I just remember I went. I went to that. That person's spot, and they just kept, like, upping my dosage and shit like that. And one time, my mom, I remember, she's like, hey, you want to go to panda express? You have a doctor's appointment. And in my head, I'm like, you want to go to panda express? You never like, what? [00:33:40] Speaker D: You taking me somewhere? [00:33:42] Speaker A: It's a trick. [00:33:42] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:33:42] Speaker C: And I'm just like. I was like, I would love panda express. I fucking love panda. And she's like, and then afterwards, you got a doctor's appointment. And I said, oh, I'm thinking it's the same shit. I'm like, all right, cool, go. We ended up driving, like, 2 hours, like, far. And we go to bitch, bro. I walk into this place, and I turn around, and I'm like, ah, I forgot my phone. And they're like, it's okay. [00:34:01] Speaker D: You don't need it. [00:34:02] Speaker C: It'll be quick. I'm like, no, I'm gonna go get it. I try to open the door. It's locked. And I'm like, I'm looking like, oh, we're closing. That's why I was like, all right. I go in there. I ain't come out for a whole month. [00:34:12] Speaker A: Get the. [00:34:12] Speaker C: And guess what? My doctor in there was my doctor on the outside. [00:34:16] Speaker D: Wait, wait. [00:34:17] Speaker B: So you were committed? [00:34:18] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:34:19] Speaker B: Okay, so what was this facility? [00:34:20] Speaker D: What was it. [00:34:21] Speaker C: It was like all these. Bro, it pissed me off. Cause my mom submitted me, and in my thing, it said because of weed. And at that time, I was like, I don't even smoke weed. [00:34:29] Speaker D: What? [00:34:29] Speaker B: Okay, but what kind of facility was. [00:34:32] Speaker C: It was like, all these kids, bro. Like, just all these kids, like, from. It ranged from literally, like nine years old to 17 years old. Cause once you're 18, they. There was this guy in there that while I was there, he's 18. They was like, bro, you just gotta go. And they let him out on the street, bro. And it was kid. [00:34:46] Speaker B: Was it a mental health facility? [00:34:48] Speaker C: I think it was, like, kind of mental health ish for drugs or some shit. [00:34:51] Speaker B: Cause they were, like, a rehab? [00:34:52] Speaker C: Yeah, kinda. There's a kid in there with track marks, bro, in the middle of his toes that was, like, 15 years old. And I was like, how is this possible? [00:34:59] Speaker D: They. [00:35:00] Speaker C: Everyone's looking at me like, bro, like, why the fuck are you here? And, bro. And it's so funny because all of the counselors and everything were literally, like, d one athletes. They used to be pro. Like, that shit was crazy, bro. Like, that was all. And they look at me like, yo, you're good. Like, what the fuck you here for? [00:35:16] Speaker B: So did you. So when you got to the facility, they, like, assessed you and all, they gave you the prescription? [00:35:24] Speaker C: Yeah, I already have my prescription already. [00:35:25] Speaker B: Before you went there? [00:35:26] Speaker D: Yeah. Yeah. [00:35:26] Speaker C: So that's the thing that. That's everyone there. Like, I never thought of it because I was still a child, but everyone there literally made it a thing where, like, that's weird that your doctor in here, which is the doctor, which he gets paid for every child in there was my doctor on the outside. Okay. [00:35:43] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:35:43] Speaker C: And like, that. And now I watch all these movies about, like, pharmaceuticals and shit, bro. These doctors were getting paid how much to prescribe a certain drug. And then I'll be watching this shit. I'm not gonna lie, bro. I kind of tear up. I'm like, I was really a fucking. Like, a part of this. I might even cry right now, bro. Think about that shit. They really. I feel fucked up my whole system by giving me this fucking drug, bro. Like, I really feel that because then after I got out of there, I still kept getting in trouble. Like, when I wasn't even doing shit. Like, I never went to, like, jail, never did nothing crazy, you know what I mean? And my mom sent me to San Jose, and then, like, so they're keeping it going. They sent me to this doctor. That doctor's like, why the fuck are you prescribed this shit? And he gives me, like, the smallest dose, and I was fine. [00:36:26] Speaker A: Damn. [00:36:27] Speaker D: So. [00:36:27] Speaker B: Do you think so he was getting kickbacks for Sydney? [00:36:29] Speaker C: Yeah, I definitely think so. And then that place ended up. Oh, shit, I'll spit. That place ended up closing down, like, years later and shit for, like, a whole fucking, like, scandal and shit like that. [00:36:38] Speaker B: Do you think that the doc is. [00:36:40] Speaker A: Whoa, there's a Netflix document like that? [00:36:44] Speaker B: Yeah, there's facilities like that. But my question to you is, you said they prescribed you to max dosage. [00:36:49] Speaker C: Of this trial drug, almost five ants. [00:36:51] Speaker B: Yeah, Vyvanse. [00:36:52] Speaker D: That's what it was. [00:36:52] Speaker C: It was a blue orange drug. [00:36:54] Speaker B: How do you feel like that fucked you up? [00:36:56] Speaker C: I feel like. Cause at the time, I remember just having, like, hella suicidal thoughts. I wouldn't fucking eat everything. And now that I think about it, like, I do believe that a lot of the shit I did as a kid or any drug I did, has affected me now. And I feel that's why I'm so anxious, I'm so nervous. And I feel that drug specifically fucked me up because as a child, I don't think you should be on that shit. [00:37:17] Speaker D: No. [00:37:17] Speaker C: Like, I develop. [00:37:19] Speaker D: Yeah, bro. [00:37:19] Speaker C: Like, I remember I passed out twice from lack of eating. You know? I mean, it's crazy. [00:37:24] Speaker B: So you weren't eating in the. [00:37:26] Speaker C: No, not in the facility, like, before, like that. From this drug? Like, I couldn't sleep. I couldn't eat, because it's pretty much like fucking meth or something. A little capsule. I don't fucking know. And that's why, even to this day, I actually don't even take Adderall, so. [00:37:39] Speaker B: Did your mom green light them giving you this? [00:37:42] Speaker D: Yes, but she's thinking. [00:37:43] Speaker A: She's thinking it's helping you. Like, especially if it's from the doctor, if they say we can prescribe this medicine because he has ADHD, this is a good facility for him. Not knowing the doctors, they have this whole shit planned. [00:37:53] Speaker C: My mom's just trying to get. I'm her first child. She didn't know what the fuck was going on. And all these teachers are telling her that I'm just this bad kid. And she like that, so what else she supposed to think? And my whole thing was like, mom, I'm not fighting nobody. Mom, I'm not getting caught with drugs at school. [00:38:07] Speaker B: So let me ask you this. [00:38:08] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:38:09] Speaker B: If. Let's say. Let's say all the shit that was going on with the medical facility with your mom, you were misdiagnosed whatever the case, what do you think was actually going on with Alexis? [00:38:19] Speaker C: I think I was just a child. I think I was 60 years old, hyper as fuck. Like. [00:38:23] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:38:24] Speaker C: Like, I think I was just being a kid and I just feel like my curiosity was different. Like, bro, I remember there's no reason why I was ten years old singing Frankie Lyman in my head. Like, I always like shit. Like, I liked learning shit. Like, I learned the guitar by myself. [00:38:40] Speaker A: So music was already played a part. [00:38:41] Speaker C: In your life as a kid as well? I loved music, bro. I loved everything. I just loved learning things, if that makes sense. Like, I just learned learning things I didn't know about. And, like, I learned how to play the guitar by myself. I know how to play the harmonica myself, like, 1415 years old, you know, and that's just because, like, I wanted to learn it. I thought it looked fucking cool. So. [00:39:01] Speaker A: Yeah, so did you have more of a. If you had to balance it out right or assess it, did you have more of a knack for wanting to learn things, or did you have more of a knack for music? [00:39:12] Speaker C: I would say learn things. [00:39:13] Speaker A: Learn things. [00:39:14] Speaker C: Learn things. [00:39:15] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, music. [00:39:16] Speaker C: Cuz I think, like, to be good at, like, music gotta be good at math. I don't think I'm good at math, but I'm good at feeling shit. I feel. That's not crazy. No, that's like. No, cuz like, when I. When I'm like, make music, bro, I don't. I don't be counting on whatever. I'll just. I'll just go in and I'll do it. And sometimes I'll like. I can't get on the beat for the first five minutes for some weird reason. I'm like, fuck, why am I fucking up? But it's not because I'm, like, thinking of the beat. I'm just feeling the. Feel like it's weird as fuck. So I think I just. I don't know, just like learning things. And it just so happens that I just love music. [00:39:46] Speaker B: That's a crazy ass story. [00:39:47] Speaker A: No, that's a wild. [00:39:49] Speaker B: I mean, I've heard of it, but I don't know, like, we've never talked about that, so I don't know. People personally have gone through that. [00:39:56] Speaker C: Nah, bro. I definitely got some fucking crazy stories to tell you, bro. Like, I feel like my life has been a movie, bro. And even the love aspect or whatever. I'm gonna be real with you. I remember being 16 years old and I was heartbroken over this girl. I break into my parents liquor bottle and a liquor cabinet. I drink a whole bottle of tequila to myself, right? Why my ass get on a scooter, a razor scooter and fucking for 6.5 miles scooter to this girl's house. And I'm just knocking like, hey, she's like, you gotta go. And I'm parking. [00:40:28] Speaker A: Oh, trying to be Romeo ass nigga. [00:40:30] Speaker C: And then, bro, I swear to God, I remember this shit perfectly. I don't know why the fuck. And I just remember being sad. So I get my scooter, I don't even ride it back home, bro. I walking home and I just remember listening to the color purple, like on repeat, bro, the color purple. [00:40:44] Speaker A: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. [00:40:46] Speaker C: My shoulder. [00:40:47] Speaker D: Look at that in the eye. [00:40:49] Speaker B: God, at 16, you. [00:40:53] Speaker C: I love that song. [00:40:54] Speaker B: And I still ain't listening to the color of her. [00:40:57] Speaker C: I think it's just, that's what I like. [00:40:59] Speaker D: No, it's. [00:40:59] Speaker C: Cause there was this guy, I think it's Bernal Taylor on American Idol that sang it. And I really liked this song. And it was like, got my house. It still keeps the cold out. And for some reason I love that song. I was like, this shit is amazing. [00:41:13] Speaker A: When did you realize that this was something that you wanted to pursue? You said you had a knack for learning, you liked music and you played guitar harmonica. When did you realize, like, oh, man. [00:41:23] Speaker C: This is something I could do when it fell in my life lap, I guess, like, I started so when I was 16, still I couldn't get a job, so I ended up taking my UK and my guitar in front of Ross and I was singing for money. [00:41:37] Speaker A: But you had already taught yourself. [00:41:39] Speaker C: Yeah, and I tried it and it worked. [00:41:40] Speaker D: Right? [00:41:41] Speaker C: So still at this point, not thinking nothing of it. Then I do fast forward to the brown boy maj make that broke boy song. It works. And then some guy like, was like, hey, man, I think it's cool. He wants to manage me. Whatever, cool, blah, whatever, blah, blah, blah, blah. I moved to Vegas, and in Vegas I'm probably, what, 20 years old at the time, 21 years old. And I'm working two jobs to like have a little apartment out there and shit by myself. And on top of that, fund my music that I'm trying to do. And then out of nowhere, Kev hits me, was like, a bro, I want to manage you. And I'm like, oh, shit, like this. [00:42:11] Speaker A: He was doing radio in Vegas at the time. [00:42:14] Speaker C: No, I think Tampa. Okay. No, in LA, I think he's doing. And I'm like, oh, shit. Like, it's fucking bootleg hair. [00:42:22] Speaker D: Cool. [00:42:22] Speaker C: And then at first I was like, nah, I'm good, bro. Like, you know? Cause I'm just like, I got Madison. [00:42:27] Speaker A: I'm straight. [00:42:28] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm a loyal person. That's just who I am. I'm like, they got you. Or, like, this situation got you to notice me. So we're doing something right. But then those fools, at the time, I think I weighed 195 pounds. And they're like, you're getting a little big. We don't need you to lose weight. And they're like, we're gonna stop shooting music videos and this and that if you pass the 200 mark. And I'm like, who the fuck are you telling me what I can and cannot eat? So I was like, at that minute, ak still want to manage me? [00:42:53] Speaker D: He said. [00:42:54] Speaker C: And then I remember, hold on, let. [00:42:55] Speaker A: Me get to 220. I got you. [00:42:56] Speaker B: You think we still get that deal with Rockefeller? [00:43:02] Speaker C: So I remember calling Kevin, you still want to manage me? He's like, yeah. I said, can you give me an uber to the. To the airport? I used, like, all the money I had to get a plane ticket back from Arizona, from. From Vegas to Arizona. And then from there, I'm back at my mom's. And at the time, I think she thinks I'm responsible and shit. Because I lived by myself in Vegas for, like, almost a damn year. And from there, like, Kev was like, hey, man, we're gonna go do these things. And he's showing me a world that I've never seen. Like, oh, we're gonna go to this concert. Ended up going to a post Malone concert. And I'm, like, thinking, oh, shit, we're gonna see post Malone. This is so cool. We go through the back, and we're sitting down and little, like, couches like this in, like, the green room. I don't even know what a green room is at the time. Post Malone walks in, and I swear to God, I'm like, wait, what the fuck? Like, what? And I just remember, he's like. He's like, who are you? And I'm like, I'm here with Kev. He's like, oh, let's get weird, boy. And I'm like, what the fuck? [00:43:56] Speaker A: Whoa. [00:43:57] Speaker C: Like, all right, but wait, hold on. [00:43:58] Speaker A: You gotta get some context. [00:44:00] Speaker B: Oh, you ain't finna just shoot past that. You said you wait, listen, bro, we from l. A, okay? You said, you say he said what? [00:44:11] Speaker C: Oh, like, like, at first he was like, who are you? [00:44:14] Speaker B: No, no, no, let's get to the. [00:44:15] Speaker C: Let's get weird, boy. [00:44:16] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:44:16] Speaker B: What the fuck does that mean? [00:44:17] Speaker C: He says he's a Texas, like, turn up. Like, let's get weird, boy. Like, you know, let's drink some bud lights and shit. Like, that's how I took it as. [00:44:23] Speaker B: That'S how you took it? [00:44:24] Speaker D: I think that's how we took it. [00:44:25] Speaker A: As you took it, though. [00:44:26] Speaker C: I mean, that's. [00:44:29] Speaker B: Whoa. [00:44:29] Speaker C: I took what he said in the correct manner that I thought it was okay. [00:44:34] Speaker B: Going on in the music industry, right, is going through some shit, right. [00:44:41] Speaker A: It was a moment where you realize, and it was a good time. [00:44:49] Speaker C: And then fast forward, like, to the remainder of the night. Like, after the. Like, I'm in the back. I'm in the back of him performing. I think this is the coolest back. [00:44:57] Speaker A: Of him performing, bro. [00:44:58] Speaker B: I'm minding my. [00:44:59] Speaker A: What is happening right now? [00:45:02] Speaker C: I'm on the back of the stage, bro. He's in the front. [00:45:04] Speaker A: You're on the back of the stage. [00:45:06] Speaker C: Watching him perform, and that's just cool as fuck. [00:45:08] Speaker B: I know a dude named stage from the IE different. [00:45:11] Speaker C: Anyway, so then I remember afterwards, Kev's like, you ever been to international? I'm like, bro, I've never been to a club in my life. Well, this fool took me like four clubs in one night. And I thought it was the coolest shit. Cuz we're not waiting in line. We're just going straight in. I'm not knowing this where I don't know anything. I'm like, holy shit, this is cool. Then he takes. He's like, he's like, you been a jags? [00:45:29] Speaker D: I'm like, what the fuck is Jags? [00:45:30] Speaker C: Is takes me to Jags. It's a strip club the size of a Walmart. And I'm just like, I like it here, but, yeah. And then after that, I remember he got me an Uber home. And as I get home, he's like, you want to go to Vegas with me tomorrow? And I'm like, bro, I got no money, bro. [00:45:46] Speaker D: I got nothing. [00:45:46] Speaker C: He's like, it's okay. I'll take care of you. And I'm like, okay, I'm down. So he pulls up on me. As he pulls up, he's like, actually, can you pack for, like, two months to come to California with me? I'm gonna try to put you in sessions and things like that. And I'm like, bro, I don't have money to, like, do that. He's like, don't worry, I got you. I was like, okay, cool. I come out, he's like, where's all your shit? He's like, this is all I got, bro. It's a little backpack. We go to Vegas, bro. After Vegas, we go to Cali. I meet his wife, his family. I'm in there. I think I meet you probably, like two days later, and now we're here. [00:46:19] Speaker A: That's amazing. I mean, that's a dope story. I mean, just hearing from those early beginnings to where you're getting at to now, what do you think? Some of the biggest lessons that you learned over those times from Alexis then brown boy Maj, you know, so Alexis as a kid, teenager to brown boy Maj to now change your name back to, like, how do you feel? Like it's full circle. Just the blessings that you learned. [00:46:41] Speaker C: I think the lesson in general is just like, just go for it. Just go with the flow. Just try. Like, why not? That's just how I feel. Like I had nothing to lose at the time, and I just did it. I feel like that's everyone has nothing to lose. You know? In my head, it was really like, I don't know. I guess I don't really be. I don't really know what lesson it is except for just go for it. [00:47:02] Speaker A: You know what I love about this, though, is that we're watching it in real time. So it's like when you say all these things about being a people pleaser, and I want to make sure everybody's happy, which is. There's nothing wrong with that. I can't wait to see the evolution, and not in a bad way, but just like, when you start to become used to this and knowing what you want in the sense of like, oh, no, this is final. This is what I want. And really being accustomed to the lifestyle that you deserve, you know what I'm saying? Cause you deserve this, right? You have a talent, and you're here for a reason, so it's amazing to see you really enjoy it because you only get one time for this shit. [00:47:39] Speaker C: I'm thankful for everything, bro. Like, it's. Everything's. Everything's just cool. Like, I don't know. And like how you said, like, just knowing things you want and things like that. Like, I'm personally a person where I just go for it and I do it. And, like, anyone asks me, like, hey, you should pull up to this shit, fuck it, I might not want to, but I go and do it. And I've kind of finally, in my head, have. Have realized that, like, there's certain people that I like, I'll invite to want to go do things because it could be good for them and they don't want to. And I'm just like, these are kind of low key to people I don't even want around me anymore to be real, you know? But I still be trying, you know what I mean? And that's what I've realized, at least where I'm at. And just, just all that shit. At least for sure now. I know it's like, I know I'm a motherfucker that wants to be on time to things. I don't want people around me that don't want to be on time. I know motherfucker that likes to try. I don't want people around me that don't want to try. You know what I mean? [00:48:26] Speaker B: That's how I feel when you make the decision to go all in on yourself. Is that scary for you? [00:48:31] Speaker C: Nah, not really. [00:48:33] Speaker B: Because you described the situation when you came outside and he was like, kev was like, oh, just come get in the car. Let's go. [00:48:40] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:48:40] Speaker B: And you were like, all right, fuck it. Like, let's do it. [00:48:42] Speaker C: I mean, what else was I gonna do? [00:48:44] Speaker B: Fucking rot in Arizona? That's not the same thing, though. Because if you have something to lose, you don't move as freely like that. [00:48:50] Speaker C: I feel ya. [00:48:50] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? So it's different now. For instance, you walking away now, like, you getting up and just leaving and going to Mexico for two months. [00:48:57] Speaker C: Think about it. [00:48:58] Speaker B: You would think about it. [00:48:59] Speaker C: I'd be thinking about it. I would think about, who doesn't think about it sometimes, like, things get overwhelming to me. I'm like, hey, maybe I'll just use, like, oh, this project isn't the reason I blow up. Let me use an excuse to like, hey, guys, I really appreciate you for putting your time in me. I think it's best we just go our separate ways because I don't want to keep wasting your time. But then, like, you know, then I'd be thinking to myself, like, nah, it's still a process. Let's keep it going. At least we're not like this. We're going like this. We're going like this because, like you said, like, I don't know. To me, it's back to the people pleaser. It's back to the. Making sure everyone's happy. I just don't want, I don't want to make anyone like, I don't fuck. What the fuck is the word? I don't want to disappoint anybody. [00:49:39] Speaker D: That's. [00:49:40] Speaker C: That's really my thing that goes in my head. Like, it. Like, it's not even me. Like, you, like, whatever, bro. Like, you happy with anything you got. You've already low key living your dream. Like, you're living your dreams. Like, I think of it as that. Like, I personally feel like I've lived a million lifetimes compared to, like, what other motherfuckers is doing. [00:49:55] Speaker A: She's still so young, bro. [00:49:56] Speaker C: I know you're still early into this, man. [00:49:58] Speaker A: That's why I said I enjoy watching the process of you, like, you know, the bright eyes and just being able to experience shit. [00:50:04] Speaker C: I still get those shits. [00:50:05] Speaker A: Don't ever lose that about you. I guess that's my point, because I see a lot of people that it becomes regular to them in the sense of they get comfortable, kick they feet up, and they lose that hunger and that passion. [00:50:17] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, no, for sure, bro. Yeah, no, definitely. I mean, it's like Wally road, we just locked in recently. And to me, shout out to Wiley Desensito. Yeah, bro, I'm excited about that shit. I'm not gonna lie. This will be texting me, facetiming me out of nowhere, and I'm like, I. [00:50:33] Speaker B: Knew that y'all would rock too, because the sonics would be like, I think that's gonna be dope now. [00:50:38] Speaker C: Yeah, we got some cool shit. We'll definitely listen to it. [00:50:41] Speaker B: Do you think that, now, here's a question, right? Because as far as, from us, from a standpoint, there aren't many alexis that exist in the ecosystem. When I say that, I mean, like, there aren't many mexican, mexican artists that sound like you. I think you're like, one of one, maybe one of two, if that. [00:50:59] Speaker C: I appreciate that. [00:51:01] Speaker B: Is that something that you plan to lean more into? Like, you want to put. You want more people that are like you or you cool with being on the island? [00:51:08] Speaker C: I mean, if people are like that and, like, hit me up or I come across them, like, why not, like, you know? [00:51:14] Speaker B: Well, you know, a lot of people don't like to share that leg. Once they find they pocket, they don't like to share that. [00:51:18] Speaker C: I heard this recently, right where I fucked with. I feel number twos are too busy trying to be number one and true number ones want number twos to also be number ones. That's how I feel. [00:51:29] Speaker B: I fuck with that. [00:51:29] Speaker C: I feel like that's like my boy TK. I brought him here. I didn't bring him here, but I literally pushed for him to like, hey, bro, TK, TK. He could do this. Like, you know, I tell at, you should come to LA, you should come to LA, you should come to LA. My boy Cyrus, he shoots shit. I was living at this place at the time, I didn't have to offer and even to my roommate at the time be like, hey, I got a boy that we can, like, I didn't have to do that and put anyone in that uncomfortable situation, but I want to do it because I want the best for them. I want, I want us all to eat. I don't want to meet new people along the fucking way. It's like my boy Benji back there, like I've known that fool since I was literally like 1718 years old too, you know, like when we first interacted on Twitter, like, that's a fake bottle of Hennessy. I said, no, it's fucking not. Like just shit like that. And like, he's a cool person that I still want to keep around, you know, like, and it's cool. Cause he's never ever tried to like come and see what I'm doing and everyone sees that. I'm in the room with head, I'm in the room with Kev, I'm in the room with chuck and, oh, let me go with him because, you know, whatever, like him and a lot of people I'm around don't think that way. And I love that and that's the people I want around. [00:52:33] Speaker A: So the people that you cut off, the people on, like we were talking about the track offended, right? Or just in general? Right? [00:52:40] Speaker C: I never cut the person on offended off. [00:52:42] Speaker A: What I'm saying is that when people hear these songs that are about them, or like, it suggests it's about the. Do they reach back out to you and say, damn, I heard that. Or do you let them hear it ahead of time? [00:52:52] Speaker C: Like, I'm not gonna lie, I shouldn't say this, but. So that song specifically is. It's a situation in a whole. No, hold on. It's not that. And there's these guys that I work with and I got drunk. [00:53:11] Speaker D: There you go. [00:53:12] Speaker C: There you go. [00:53:13] Speaker B: You don't have a mic. What do you say? [00:53:15] Speaker C: Oh, he said nice guys. Those guys. [00:53:20] Speaker A: Nice guys, those guys. [00:53:21] Speaker C: No, but not so it's like I'm a person, but I'm a very nice guy. And if I feel like, bro, I don't know, it's a little something, a little weird. If I feel that shit, that's definitely you, kind of you a little weenie poo. [00:53:32] Speaker D: Bro. [00:53:32] Speaker C: Big weenie poo. [00:53:33] Speaker B: I have a question. [00:53:34] Speaker D: Yeah? [00:53:34] Speaker B: Define weenie poo. What the fuck is that? [00:53:36] Speaker C: I could be anything. [00:53:37] Speaker B: It could be anything. [00:53:38] Speaker D: It can be. [00:53:38] Speaker C: It could be a lamb. It could be a weirdo. I just don't like using those words. [00:53:41] Speaker B: So a weenie poo is cool. [00:53:42] Speaker C: Weenie poo is cool. Because I want you to feel like an extra weenie poo. You know what I mean? Like, you feel weird. You're weird. [00:53:48] Speaker B: Not to be confused with regular weenie poo. Extra weenie poo. [00:53:50] Speaker C: No, no. [00:53:51] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:53:51] Speaker C: Cause if someone calls, okay, it's like, someone calls you a pansy. I look like, oh, this motherfucker call me a pansy. Like, what? [00:53:56] Speaker B: No one says that. [00:53:57] Speaker C: I do. [00:53:58] Speaker B: You're one of one. [00:53:59] Speaker D: Exactly. [00:54:00] Speaker C: But that's what I'm saying. Cause I want you to really know, like, sure, there's truth. There's truth in humor, but it's, like, kind of being a pansy right now, my guy. And if they can't wrap your head around that, it's for a reason. [00:54:09] Speaker A: Somebody just told me that they were like, we were having dinner. If you piss, chuck off, something's wrong with you. So I get the same sense of you. Like, if somebody makes you mad or does you wrong, it's like, it's not your problem. It's their issue. One of my last questions, I do. When do you take accountability for shit that you do fuck up on, though? So, like, where do you. Where's the thing that you're like, okay. Yeah, I take ownership of that. I do fuck up in this department. That's what I have to work on. [00:54:35] Speaker C: I feel like I've always taken accountability. I just never. I was just never good at. With the conference, the confrontation part, you know? I've always been like, oh, I did fuck up. [00:54:42] Speaker D: Like. [00:54:43] Speaker C: And I know for a fact, but I'm like, but I don't want. I don't want to. Like, I'll tell you that. Like, if the person comes to me, I'm like, yeah, bro, I fucked up. I might avoid, like, having a say, but that was back then. Now I feel like. Like, nah, I fucked up. Like, my bad. But now low key. [00:54:57] Speaker A: I'm acting like a weenie. [00:54:58] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, I'm acting like a weenie. That's all me. Like, my bad. Like, I think the other night I did something where I was like, damn. Like, I shouldn't have done this, but that's my bad, bro. I'm a little faded right now. You know, I'm caught up in the hype, I'm like, you know, my bad. I'm sorry. But that's why also, I don't leave the crib, so I don't fuck up. You know, that's cap. [00:55:16] Speaker B: Everybody fucks up. [00:55:17] Speaker C: Not if I don't leave the crib. [00:55:19] Speaker B: At the crib. You don't fuck up. [00:55:20] Speaker C: I don't fuck up at the crib at all. What am I gonna fuck up at the crib? [00:55:23] Speaker B: Social media. It could be anything. [00:55:25] Speaker C: No, I'm gonna do it. I'm getting there. [00:55:27] Speaker B: A okay. [00:55:28] Speaker C: You know, I might fuck up by not I might fuck up by not leaving the crib. If I gotta go somewhere, that's a fuck up. But I'll go. But I'll go. [00:55:36] Speaker B: You'll go? [00:55:36] Speaker A: So are you fucking up by leaving? Told you. Everybody fucks up anyway. [00:55:41] Speaker D: The year can't end. [00:55:43] Speaker A: The year can't end without Alexis doing what? [00:55:45] Speaker C: I'm so sorry, I didn't hear you. One more time. [00:55:47] Speaker A: The year can't end without Alexis doing what? What are you manifesting? What are the things that you've experienced? [00:55:52] Speaker B: You know, how you was lying on the record about the designer shit? [00:55:54] Speaker A: Oh, shit. [00:55:55] Speaker C: Oh, the designer shit. [00:55:57] Speaker B: That's called a callback. No, but go ahead. [00:56:01] Speaker C: No, I don't know. [00:56:04] Speaker A: Tesla. [00:56:05] Speaker C: I mean, I would love that, but I'm not focused on that. I think. I honestly don't think about the future or, like, what I want, I focus on just did I, like, today. Let me make sure I don't mess up today and make sure today I did everything I had to do, low key. Because I feel if I get too caught up in that, then it's like. [00:56:21] Speaker A: But you have to think about, like, what you. Nothing in the future. The next step of your career. [00:56:26] Speaker D: I don't. [00:56:26] Speaker C: I don't want to think about. Because who knows? Maybe because I don't want to set myself up for, like, disappointing myself. [00:56:32] Speaker D: Like. [00:56:32] Speaker C: Oh. Cause I kind of already did that, like, previous with the t pain thing, whatever, like, wiz khalifa thing in my head. Oh, shit, I got someone wiz. I'm about to be this. [00:56:40] Speaker B: Yeah, but you don't think that that's fear? [00:56:42] Speaker D: It's. [00:56:42] Speaker C: I don't think it's fear. I think it's just me being responsible and me not trying to get ahead of myself or count my chickens before they hatch. [00:56:48] Speaker B: Yeah, but that. Mitigating your expectations and being afraid. [00:56:51] Speaker C: But I know I'm not afraid of it. I know it's gonna come. I always tell myself it's just a matter of when I just don't want to put. Give myself a timeline or whatever. Because let's say it doesn't happen. [00:57:02] Speaker D: Let's. [00:57:02] Speaker C: It could. It could happen. Fucking, let's say I want. I want it to happen at the end of December. I want to be this big ass person, right? But it doesn't happen. But then I reach December in January, comes like, fuck it. Like, I don't know. But then February, it happens for me. [00:57:16] Speaker D: Why not? [00:57:17] Speaker C: I'm just gonna take it day by day. [00:57:18] Speaker A: Got it. [00:57:18] Speaker D: You know? [00:57:19] Speaker A: What are those things that you're thinking about? [00:57:21] Speaker C: So, listen, I don't know. I just. [00:57:23] Speaker D: Shit. [00:57:24] Speaker C: Fucking me. Being able to fucking not have to, like, always get an Uber, maybe me finally. Shit, who knows? Maybe get a license finally. I don't even need to be big for that, you know, license. No, I don't. [00:57:34] Speaker A: All right, so, yeah, we got. Definitely. [00:57:35] Speaker B: Okay, so you not from New York, bro. [00:57:37] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:57:37] Speaker B: You're not from New York. [00:57:38] Speaker D: Yeah. Okay. [00:57:39] Speaker B: We need to get a driver's license. [00:57:40] Speaker A: Yeah, an id. [00:57:42] Speaker C: You don't have an id? That's not my fault. [00:57:44] Speaker B: Well, that's not my fault. [00:57:45] Speaker A: Okay. [00:57:45] Speaker D: Low key. [00:57:45] Speaker C: I kind of used the no id as an excuse to not go places sometimes. [00:57:49] Speaker B: No, you're not. That's a confrontation, you grown ass man. [00:57:52] Speaker A: You need an id. But I always end up going, bro. [00:57:55] Speaker C: I do. I agree. [00:57:56] Speaker B: Let's get a driver's. [00:57:57] Speaker A: Do you have a record shut down? No, I don't get an idea. [00:58:00] Speaker C: So this is my thing, though. Like, I've actually have tried to buy an id three times. [00:58:04] Speaker B: No, no, no. Listen to what I'm saying. Listen to that. What I'm saying, okay. What's preventing you from getting a driver's license? [00:58:11] Speaker C: I think me, personally, is. I don't like driving in general. [00:58:16] Speaker D: I know. [00:58:16] Speaker B: So laziness, that. [00:58:18] Speaker C: I guess. [00:58:19] Speaker D: Laziness. [00:58:19] Speaker A: But you like to learn things. [00:58:20] Speaker D: I do. [00:58:20] Speaker C: But, I mean, I don't know how to drive. I just don't like doing it. I remember having to drive Kev back one time from Arizona, and I hated it. [00:58:27] Speaker A: No, you didn't. You didn't drive. Allegedly. [00:58:30] Speaker B: Listen, I'm saying, okay, so let's get a driver's license right before the next hour. [00:58:34] Speaker C: Okay? [00:58:35] Speaker A: That'd be fire. [00:58:37] Speaker D: He's not gonna do it. [00:58:38] Speaker A: He's not gonna do that shit. [00:58:39] Speaker D: I don't know. Jesus. We'll see. [00:58:40] Speaker B: Okay. [00:58:41] Speaker C: All right. [00:58:42] Speaker A: Who can I run to? [00:58:43] Speaker B: Who can I run to? [00:58:43] Speaker A: You need to run to the DMV, Alexis. We appreciate. [00:58:50] Speaker C: Run your ass to the DMV. [00:58:51] Speaker A: Maybe just, like some run in general. [00:58:53] Speaker B: That's what it is. You know what? You know why I want you to get a license? Two reasons. [00:58:56] Speaker D: Right? Okay. [00:58:57] Speaker B: Because you're a grown ass man. [00:58:58] Speaker D: This is true. [00:58:59] Speaker B: And number two? Because you need to go through what we have all gone through before they change the system. [00:59:03] Speaker D: What is that? [00:59:04] Speaker B: You sit in that DMV and fuck off your whole day, just like we went. [00:59:07] Speaker A: This is more about us. [00:59:08] Speaker C: Yeah, your whole day's fucked. [00:59:12] Speaker B: Okay. Battery dead. [00:59:13] Speaker A: Make appointments online. [00:59:15] Speaker D: What? [00:59:15] Speaker B: Yeah. So before we go to complete automation and elon, take over the DMV. [00:59:20] Speaker D: True. [00:59:20] Speaker B: I want you to sit your ass in there like we do. Eat stale funyuns. [00:59:24] Speaker C: Stale funyuns? I love fun. [00:59:26] Speaker A: Is there anything we didn't mention that you want to make sure the people know whether it's about the album, about, you know, things that you've done? [00:59:31] Speaker C: No, I think y'all covered it. I don't know. I think y'all did a great job. Y'all some great guys, eh? [00:59:36] Speaker A: Thank you, brother. Appreciate that. Alexis, get that album. [00:59:39] Speaker C: I'm glad we hugged. I'm glad we hugged. [00:59:41] Speaker A: I'm glad. [00:59:41] Speaker C: I was looking forward to that.
