Come on, man.
0:02
That voice you're hearing right now,
0:05
that's a voice that's destined for
0:06
greatness. I believe he's walking in it,
0:08
Mike Muse, if you ask me. Heather B, are
0:09
you there? Heather B, are you there?
0:12
Turn her mic on. Is she there?
0:14
She's coming.
0:14
She's coming?
0:15
She's pulling up.
0:16
Oh, I love a good story, Tracy.
0:18
Me, too.
0:18
I love a great story.
0:21
I know what it's like to go through
0:22
trials and tribulations,
0:24
come out that darkness, and then you
0:25
step into the light and you become the
0:27
light.
0:27
Ooh, the hero's tale.
0:29
Oh, I know what it's like to be
0:30
homeless,
0:32
not knowing where that meal going to
0:33
come from.
0:35
Might be cold that day. 2:00 in the
0:37
afternoon, you're already worried about
0:39
what it's going to be like at 11:00 at
0:40
night, cuz you don't know where you're
0:42
going to rest your head.
0:44
Wow.
0:45
know where your next check is going to
0:46
come from. You don't know how you're
0:48
going to walk away from it or walk
0:50
through it, and how you're going to
0:51
utilize that to your advantage.
0:53
Say less, citizens. Say less. If you
0:56
could relate to that.
0:57
Say less.
0:58
One of this guy's projects that came out
0:59
a couple of years ago, I got a chance to
1:01
sit with it. Stumbled on him.
1:03
Stumbled on him. Went through his Roots
1:06
2 project, found a few songs that I
1:08
said, "Hey, man, this dude ain't just
1:09
saying stuff. He's been through it."
1:12
Mhm.
1:13
That's why we played that song Closure
1:15
before he came in here. I wanted to ask
1:17
him about that song.
1:19
I'm happy for him because people who
1:21
work hard deserve great things.
1:23
Mhm.
1:24
This man's music, when you listen to
1:26
him, got a lot of freedom in it. I'm
1:28
saying all these things, citizens, in
1:29
case you don't know who he is. He does
1:31
have videos that have over millions of
1:33
views.
1:35
He is on the tour that he's doing, too.
1:37
He's been around I'm not sure if he's
1:38
been around the world.
1:40
A little bit.
1:41
Been around the world.
1:42
He's making his rounds.
1:43
Never Lose You tour.
1:45
But, one of the things he did that let
1:47
me know that this man is a visionary is
1:50
he was able to collaborate with someone
1:52
that I know is a visionary that's tried,
1:54
tested, and proven. It's my friend.
1:56
Every time I comes up here, I give him a
1:58
big-ass intro. I've been studying words
2:01
just to make sure I could really
2:02
captivate
2:04
who this man is.
2:05
Capture the essence.
2:06
I got to capture the essence. He's
2:08
brought many of stars to us.
2:10
Lil Uzi Vert came up here.
2:13
Nobody knew who he was. He came and did
2:15
our South by Southwest show cuz this man
2:18
said he got it. I said, "You he got it?"
2:20
He said he got it. I didn't question it
2:22
from there.
2:23
Jack Harlow came up here. I looked at
2:25
him and said, "He got it?"
2:28
Right in these seats.
2:29
Right in these
2:30
seats. And he said he got it. I didn't
2:33
question it. Obviously, that man got it.
2:35
Mhm.
2:36
He hit us about this man right here who
2:38
I was familiar with already.
2:40
And I said, "He got it?" He said, "He
2:42
got it."
2:44
And we got him. Generation Now has
2:46
teamed up with Florida Boy
2:47
Entertainment. Did I say that correctly?
2:50
Mhm. Yes, you did.
2:51
And they are here today, the legendary,
2:53
the iconic DJ Drama. And he brought
2:55
Seddy Hendrix. What's up, SEDDY?

3:45
part of our formula of success of

6:57
game, continues to do so.
6:58
Mhm.
6:59
Let's tell let's talk about your story
7:01
though. You were, you know, you from
7:03
Florida.
7:03
Jacksonville, Florida, Duval County.
7:05
Okay, um I know you were homeless at one
7:08
point.
7:08
Yeah, at one point me and my family, we
7:10
was homeless.
7:10
How did that happen?
7:12
Um you know, life, bills. My momma
7:16
uh street [ __ ] My fault, excuse my
7:17
language.
7:18
It's all right.
7:20
Yeah, yeah, okay, well, then yeah, bet
7:22
all the way. Like my momma was thuggin',
7:23
you know what I'm saying? And it was
7:24
certain stuff going on and
7:26
we got
7:27
So, but what do you mean by thuggin'?
7:28
She was
7:28
She was out there like, you feel me?
7:30
Not no
7:32
poppin' [ __ ] and all that crazy like my
7:33
momma was just thuggin' if you know what
7:34
I mean by
7:35
getting money, however she going to get
7:37
money. And um certain things went left,
7:39
certain things weren't going right and
7:41
it got to a point we had to leave the
7:42
city. We had to go back to West Palm
7:44
Beach. Certain things popped off there,
7:46
and we ended up having to come back to
7:48
Jacksonville and start all the way over,
7:50
basically. Cuz before before the whole
7:52
homeless thing, my mama rang on every
7:54
single two, three cars, pulling up. All
7:56
her kids looking fresh head to toe. You
7:58
don't know what we going through. You
7:59
wouldn't even know what's going on.
8:01
Everything's everything, but everybody
8:02
go through a trial and error in life.
8:04
So, I had to witness my mama go through
8:05
that. And when we went back from West
8:08
Palm Beach and and went to the Salvation
8:10
Army
8:11
homeless shelter, which is right across
8:12
the street from the jail.
8:14
You know what I'm saying? Um
8:16
it was a new life. It was a new
8:17
experience. I had to get I had to do
8:18
what I had to do to come up out of
8:19
there.
8:19
So, you were in a shelter?
8:20
Yeah.
8:21
How many members of your family?
8:22
Uh it's me, my sister, and my little
8:24
brother. Now, she got two kids, so
8:26
And all of y'all were in the shelter?
8:27
Uh just us at the time. She didn't have
8:29
kids at the time. And she ain't working.
8:31
My sister was working a job. I'm picking
8:33
me and my brother up. She was in the
8:34
newspaper about it. Still graduated from
8:36
school. We had to wake up 6:30 in the
8:37
morning to catch like two, three city
8:38
buses to It was a whole
8:40
Ooh, three. How long was this time
8:41
period, Steady?
8:42
Uh this was only for about I'd say what?
8:46
Six, eight months.
8:47
[ __ ] Only a
8:49
Wow.
8:51
Yeah, but when you zoom out, you're
8:52
like, "No, it's small." As you continue
8:54
to grow.
8:55
back then, it's that
8:56
Well, of course.
8:56
I'm saying?
8:57
What did y'all eat in the shelter?
8:59
They food, our food. The people in the
9:00
crazy thing about it in the shelter,
9:02
they used to hate until they realized
9:03
like we good people cuz we come first
9:05
off, we pulled up there in the limo. The
9:07
mayor said
9:07
So, the shelter?
9:08
Yeah.
9:09
That's different.
9:10
Yeah, so we pulled up there in the limo
9:12
at the same time my my sister still
9:13
working at Foot Locker. My mama still
9:15
making money. We in there Air Jordans
9:17
down. Air Jordans was popping. We in
9:19
there Jordans down. Air Jordans down.
9:20
Everything because we just came from
9:22
having, and we go to immediately
9:24
what you mean.
9:25
So, that make y'all a target, though?
9:27
No, hell no. But no, it wasn't no it was
9:29
never just broke. You know what I'm
9:31
saying? It was just we went through a
9:32
trial and error.
9:33
Okay.
9:34
I had to thug it Get for a minute.
9:35
Steady Hendrix, he I'll just tell you
9:37
cuz when you hear your music
9:39
you know, um
9:41
I you wouldn't necessarily gather all
9:43
that unless you talking about all that.
9:45
Never never look like what you going
9:46
through. That's one thing she taught us.
9:47
We ain't going to never look like what
9:48
we going through.
9:49
Mhm.
9:49
Never look like what you going through.
9:51
What else she teach you? Did she teach
9:53
you this was just temporary?
9:55
Oh, yeah, for sure.
9:56
Uh-huh.
9:56
Yeah, and never be ashamed of it. Never
9:58
be ashamed to let people know where you
9:59
come from cuz everybody come from a
10:01
crazy background. Like you never know
10:02
who the voice you being for, the
10:04
advocate you speaking for.
10:05
Yeah.
10:06
You know what I'm saying?
10:06
We can hear that in how you share it.
10:08
Yeah, the confidence, the the comfort
10:10
and the journey thus far.
10:11
For sure, this made me who I am. I
10:13
wouldn't be who I am right now. He
10:14
probably wouldn't have signed me if I
10:15
would if I didn't go through that.
10:16
Right. It's all connected.
10:18
How did the music happen at that time?
10:20
Did you even feel like rapping while you
10:21
were homeless?
10:22
worried about no music. I To be honest,
10:24
I used to pick on rappers. I never
10:25
thought I was going to I used to tell
10:26
[ __ ] in the city, man, we ain't
10:27
blowing out of Jacksonville, man.
10:29
Jacksonville, Florida, man. Watch out,
10:30
like until um I lost one of my homies to
10:33
the streets and that really
10:35
got me into rapping. I only been rapping
10:37
for like what, 5 years? 5, 6 years?
10:39
So so your homie lost his life.
10:42
That made you reflect on yours.
10:44
Yeah.
10:45
Right.
10:45
more.
10:46
Yeah.
10:46
It just made me go in there even harder.
10:48
Like I was like I got to lock in. Shout
10:50
out Lebanon G in the studio, FMG. That
10:52
was a home studio on the south side in
10:54
Arlington that he let me
10:56
basically become my comfort home.
10:58
Wow.
10:58
Who who who were the artists, like if
11:00
you wasn't thinking about rapping, when
11:02
you start thinking about rapping, a lot
11:04
of times you start listening to folks.
11:05
Like who were those artists that help
11:07
mold you in the beginning?
11:09
In my city, it was Lil Jug. RIP Lil Jug.
11:12
Um cuz he always had a name throughout
11:14
the city and respect. Uh Cut Circle, the
11:16
whole Cut Circle was raw to me.
11:18
Um
11:19
Cut Circle.
11:19
Yeah, that was Jacksonville. That's just
11:20
Jacksonville. But overall, you got Rick
11:23
Ross, you got T-Pain, you got El
11:25
DeBarge, André 3000, Lauryn Hill, Erykah
11:27
Badu. Um
11:30
Kanye, like all these people I had in my
11:33
my radar and my mama always played like
11:35
constantly. So, when I started doing
11:37
music, I knew I lived a certain life and
11:40
where I came from. My city already
11:42
rapping about this shoot them up, shoot
11:43
them up. I can do that.
11:45
Yeah.
11:45
I can probably try to be the best
11:47
versatile person in that lane. But, I
11:49
know how I'm living. Y'all know how I'm
11:51
living. Let me go this lane. Let me try
11:54
to be the different person in my city to
11:56
rap and sing rhythm and gangster. Like
11:57
still let you know how I'm coming, but
11:59
I'm I'm trying to speak to these ladies.
12:01
I'm trying to speak to the people who
12:02
need this. The pain, the the the the the
12:04
ones who need to advocate, the ones who
12:06
ain't got a voice. You know what I'm
12:07
saying? While still being on this type
12:09
of time. You know what I'm saying?
12:10
Sadi Hendrix, I love it and it remind me
12:13
of um
12:15
one of your biggest songs remind me of
12:16
we were talking about this story with
12:18
Drake today. How how Drake sent the
12:20
message to uh what was it? What was the
12:22
message he sent?
12:22
troll.
12:23
To a troll.
12:24
Yeah, he Yeah, he was like, "Yo, I'm
12:26
about to follow your girl because she's
12:27
probably miserable and I want to bring
12:29
some excitement." And then he was he DMs
12:31
her.
12:32
And said
12:32
and was like, "Yo, um if you ever need
12:35
me, I'm here, ma."
12:36
King petty.
12:37
Yeah, king king of
12:40
He's he's a Scorpio, right?
12:41
Yes, he is.
12:42
mama Scorpio, November 16th.
12:43
a Scorpio, too. It's so petty.
12:47
Petty, so y'all y'all must have loved
12:48
it.
12:50
Watch out for that stinger.
12:51
You got to love it.
12:52
You got the guy had like 300 followers,
12:54
too.
12:54
Now, how many you got? You got probably
12:56
got a million now.
12:56
No, it's girl went up to 28,000 and 30
13:00
30,000.
13:01
It turned up, yeah.
13:03
It turned up quick.
13:05
That's crazy. That's the connection you
13:06
making, Calvin.
13:07
Well, you know, because he said I don't
13:09
rap, I'm not going to rap about the same
13:10
things. I could have done that, but I'm
13:12
going to rap about something different.
13:13
You know, I'm I'm rhythm and gangster.
13:14
And his first big hit was low-key. And
13:17
so, low-key HB was about, you know, hey,
13:20
we could do this, we could have fun. I
13:21
know you got a man.
13:23
What did Drake say?
13:24
Oh, got you. Yeah, but I'm here if you
13:25
need me, ma.
13:26
Which which the way, when that song came
13:29
out, Drake DM'd me and said, "Yo, that
13:30
[ __ ] is fire."
13:31
Mhm.
13:33
You see the tie?
13:34
You got the right DM.
13:36
I got the right one. Shout out Drake,
13:38
man. I appreciate you, cuz
13:38
And and and that's and I figured he
13:40
would like that low-key record, AP, cuz
13:42
that and that came out a couple years
13:44
ago. And that was about banging out
13:46
chicks who got boyfriends and not
13:47
telling them.
13:50
Every bad loves that. That's a special
13:51
type of prize.
13:52
I think the women like it, too, though.
13:54
That could be the case.
13:56
So, this is what I like about Setti
13:58
Hendrix, because your approach to
14:00
relationships is very needed. I think
14:02
it's healthy. And then I I think, too,
14:03
for people
14:05
your age bracket, I think it's for me,
14:07
it's an interesting insight to how
14:09
relationships work.
14:10
Mhm.
14:10
You know, and and one of the things you
14:12
we were talking about off mic is, you
14:14
know, we were talking about these songs
14:16
and you were saying, "Yeah, man, I'm
14:18
being very real." He got a song called
14:20
Dotted Line, and in it he talks about um
14:23
manipulation. I ain't going to do it for
14:25
it. Right? It's one of the lines you
14:27
said. I thought that was interesting.
14:28
For sure, for sure.
14:30
Cuz that's usually what a woman might
14:31
say.
14:32
Exactly. But I'mma say it, because I'mma
14:34
feel like a lot of way how I think with
14:36
that, I'mma say it first and mean it
14:38
before you before you say it. So, it's
14:40
really reverse psychology, putting the
14:42
pressure on you. And I'mma really live
14:44
by what I'm saying, too. You know what
14:45
I'm saying? But it's by me saying it
14:46
first, it's kind of going to have it's
14:48
going to have the female in her head,
14:49
like, "What he on?"
14:50
Mhm.
14:50
Like, "Oh, like he telling me not to
14:52
change. He telling me like I ain't he
14:54
ain't putting no Like, it's something I
14:55
would have said. So, it makes them
14:57
intrigued and it's a curiosity.
14:58
So, you have a speech with girls before
15:00
you start taking them seriously, where
15:02
you lay down the pre-rec?
15:04
Kind of.
15:04
And they got to sign the dotted line and
15:06
something.
15:07
Yeah, they got to sign it. Yeah, kind of
15:08
it's like letting you know, like, once I
15:10
see it progressing or see it getting to
15:12
a certain point, where we feeling each
15:14
other, I I got to lay down rules and let
15:16
you know, like, okay, cool, like, I'm a
15:18
upcoming rapper, I'm going to put my
15:19
career before you. I'm going to do until
15:21
I'm in a space to where I ain't got to
15:23
do that no more. So is you with this is
15:25
you rocking or not? Like
15:27
And then they get the choice. So they
15:28
can't walk around saying oh he tricked
15:30
me to get some [ __ ] or he he had to say
15:32
all that if he did no I gave you a uh
15:35
You signed up for this and you knew
15:36
exactly what came with me.
15:37
Mhm.
15:38
If we keep [ __ ] or not however that
15:40
go like you know what it is.
15:41
Mhm.
15:41
So it's never no pressure on me. You
15:43
can't go around your group chat talk
15:44
crazy you got to take account.
15:46
YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED YOU HEAR ME?
15:47
I'MMA MAKE women take account. I'mma
15:49
make everybody take account.
15:50
going to be accountable for their own
15:51
actions. So what's up?
15:52
THAT'S WHY I GOT SETTI HENDRIX HERE
15:53
TODAY.
15:54
ALL RIGHT ALL RIGHT.
15:56
Well let me ask you this Setti.
15:57
What's up?
15:57
Does it feel more inspiring when you're
16:00
in a relationship or when you're single?
16:03
Cuz going back to Drake I remember him
16:04
doing an interview I feel like this was
16:06
with Rap Radar and he mentioned how when
16:09
he sing he feels like he can make better
16:11
music.
16:12
When?
16:12
That's when he's single.
16:15
Uh I ain't going to lie.
16:17
Some of my best music damn near all my
16:19
music came while while I was in a
16:21
relationship but I was cheating. She was
16:23
cheating too. So it's like but you it's
16:25
toxic we was toxic. So it's like I'm
16:27
coming I'm knowing what all the rest of
16:29
the world want to hear because I'm going
16:30
through this on my own. You feel me? And
16:33
I know what I just know what women want
16:34
to hear just like and I know what the
16:36
homies want to hear when they when they
16:37
doing what they doing and feeling like
16:38
she doing what she doing. So I think it
16:40
need to be a when I'm in a relationship
16:42
I make the best music.
16:43
Okay.
16:44
What do you think of this HB? I like his
16:46
realness Billy.
16:47
Oh I love it. I'm ready to hear music.
16:50
Setti here cracking up. Play something.
16:52
Okay let's play dotted line. We going to
16:54
come back Setti Hendrix is here. Let's
16:55
find out about that name. Let's find out
16:57
about that.
16:58
Let's still get to his music a little
16:59
bit. I want to hear some of
17:00

17:17
Turn my mic on tone.
17:18
Cheeto. We can hear you busy. We got
17:20
you.
17:22
Let me tell you about manifestation
17:24
here. Let me tell you about this really
17:26
believing in yourself. We have Will
17:27
Smith's come up here and say you got to
17:29
believe in yourself first before anyone
17:31
else is going to believe in you. And you
17:33
got to go hard cuz they going to tell
17:34
you all kind of [ __ ]
17:36
Yeah.
17:37
You know,
17:39
I also heard Will say I think one of
17:41
those speeches I can't think if it was
17:43
Confucius who said it that people who
17:45
say they can and people who say they
17:47
can't and they're both usually right.
17:50
Yep.
17:51
Right?
17:52
That's so crazy because that was going
17:53
to be my question to you. Steady, what's
17:56
up? It's Heather. Nice to hear your
17:57
voice. It's beautiful to hear your
17:59
story. I'm wondering if if you are a
18:01
person of faith because my grandmother
18:03
used to tell me
18:05
you know sometimes when you at your
18:06
lowest is when you know God will just
18:09
like basically sit your ass down so you
18:12
could finally listen. At any point where
18:14
there was the shelter, whether you you
18:16
know in prison or running in and out,
18:18
did did you kind of have a glimpse at
18:20
all or a vision at all where you would
18:22
be today? Did it seem like it was
18:24
unbelievable far to reach or something
18:26
happened to you?
18:27
Yeah, 110% at one point it felt like it
18:30
was out of reach.
18:32
I've never been to prison. I sat in
18:33
county for a minute but
18:36
it was it was plenty times I felt down
18:38
and yes, I'm a man of faith. Faith
18:40
without work is undone. My mom is a real
18:42
My mom is a real strong praying woman.
18:44
So we been through enough trials and
18:46
tribulations to when we get low I don't
18:48
seen physically, mentally and
18:50
spiritually what my God can do. I ain't
18:52
even trying to go there on the whole
18:53
preacher route but I'm just keeping it
18:54
you. Yeah, I got you. Yeah.
18:56
I asked the question. Yeah, I asked the
18:58
question.
18:58
For real though, like I real deal seen
19:01
what this man can do and having the
19:03
faith and manifestation and his power in
19:05
the tongue. Like you have to move on
19:06
that. You got to also ties in and not
19:09
looking what you not looking like what
19:10
you going through
19:11
and walking with faith walking with it
19:14
knowing this is what it is is what it's
19:15
going to be and I'm here.
19:16
Let me ask you this when you say the
19:18
power manifestation when you were in
19:20
county what was it that you were telling
19:22
yourself you were going to do?
19:24

21:24
All this on video BY THE WAY.
21:25
HOW YOU FORGET that part?
21:27
I don't even know, but I don't even know
21:28
man. He got right on the mic.
21:29
he heard it like, oh yeah, walk in the
21:30
booth. Cuz he did it so quick. He came
21:32
in, what's up? Let me hear something.
21:34
Hop in boom boom. All right.
21:36
You got to find it somewhere in my head.
21:37
I'm starstruck. I'm like, man, I don't
21:39
know. Did he like me? I'm telling Joe
21:40
like, bro, he like he rocking with me?
21:41
He he [ __ ] with me? Like what it is?
21:42
What they Does he do that regular?
21:44
give you nothing, huh?
21:45
He He didn't give nothing just a lot of
21:46
Do you kind of pace it out cuz you know
21:48
cuz artists could get souped up if you
21:50
do go too hard in the beginning.
21:51
I mean you got you got to Yeah, you got
21:54
to keep it cool with them, you know what
21:55
I'm saying? You can't put all your cards
21:57
on the table, you know what I mean? So,
21:59
I I give him enough to know I was
22:00
rocking with him but not
22:02
overly, you know what I'm saying? Where
22:03
you know I wanted him to
22:04
I still have
22:05
I wanted him to still feel feel some
22:07
hunger.
22:07
Yeah.
22:08
Exactly.
22:09
Yeah. Exactly.
22:09
I'm curious Drama because of all the
22:11
success that you've had with artists.
22:13
You know, we laid it out with Uzi and
22:14
Jack Harlow and now with Seddy, how does
22:17
your approach change with each artist?
22:20
Because you mentioned how you know part
22:22
of coming to Sway in the morning is the
22:23
formula for Jet Now success. But when
22:26
you sit down with Seddy, when you think
22:27
about okay, someone's story, how do you
22:30
start figuring out how you guys as a
22:33
team are going to push this artist?
22:35
a lot of it is just authentic for us and
22:37
organic, you know what I mean? Like
22:39
Seddy is Seddy, you know that I think
22:40
that's the that's the um
22:42
the greatness of our label, too, is
22:43
like, you know, we don't try to emulate
22:46
the other artists that have success, you
22:48
know? They all have their own lane and
22:50
their own sound and what have you. So,
22:52
you know, outside of things that we just
22:54
naturally do, you know, um
22:57
I I let his artistry speak for itself,
22:59
you know, and his projects and you know,
23:01
we we we make a good plan and a good
23:03
setup that in some ways, you know, we
23:05
use some of our skill and similarity in
23:08
a sense is so Um, I think most
23:10
importantly, you know, what we bring to
23:12
the table is, you know, myself and and
23:15
Lakon Cannon. Like we're three
23:16
figureheads where we we allow the artist
23:19
to stand on our shoulders and be able to
23:21
be in rooms early on that you might not
23:23
be privy to as a new artist in the game
23:26
and and things of that nature. So, even
23:27
that, just being able to soak up that
23:29
knowledge and that juice early on and
23:31
and me put put around of the artists and
23:34
and then just, you know, new spaces is,
23:36
you know, in itself is is it's like
23:38
getting going from high school straight
23:40
to the league.
23:40
Word.
23:41
Word.
23:41
What would you say like after you guys
23:44
focus on music is the next most
23:46
important thing? Is it the image? Is it
23:48
media training? Is it making sure that
23:50
you understand how the business works?
23:52
Is it mental health?
23:54
It's it's all of that. I mean, you know,
23:55
I think Settey does it, you know, he's a
23:57
fly fly [ __ ] off top, you know what
23:59
I'm saying? Content.
24:00
He is kind of fly HB.
24:03
You know what
24:03
HB, he look like a young me with his
24:05
locs.
24:05
ALL RIGHT.
24:07
OH GOSH.
24:08
You know, we living in a a a world of
24:10
content, you know, we all know how
24:11
important social media platforms are
24:14
these days. Settey takes advantage of
24:16
that, but you know, it's still for us,
24:18
you know, music
24:20
as the product is the most important
24:23
thing and I think that's one thing we
24:24
stand so strongly behind all the time.
24:26
It's like, you know, when it comes to
24:28
comes to that, we're going to bust
24:29
anybody ass in it when it comes to
24:31
labels, you know what I mean?
24:32
Big facts.
24:33
He heard that. You know, I love it when
24:34
he talk like that.
24:35
man.
24:36
He said that [ __ ] y'all labels.
24:37
That's what Drama said, [ __ ] y'all
24:39
labels.
24:40
I love that.
24:41
I'm not even saying [ __ ] y'all labels.
24:42
I'm just saying come meet us on the
24:43
court, you know what
24:45
That's the show.
24:45
So, we could [ __ ] y'all labels up.
24:48
I knew I knew [ __ ] was in there though.
24:50
Mike News.
24:51
Settey, I have a I have a question for
24:52
you. You're mentioning a moment that you
24:54
met DJ Drama for the first time and he
24:56
was actually in the studio. We're
24:57
talking about manifestation earlier. I
24:59
don't want the audience to get confused
25:00
with just you just woke up one morning
25:02
and it just happened and he signed you.
25:04
Talk to us about cuz for me what I got
25:05
is preparation met the opportunity. You
25:08
said you've been doing it for 5 years.
25:09
Were you in the studio every day? Were
25:11
you writing every day? Talk to us about
25:13
the moment to where he heard your
25:14
greatness because you were ready for the
25:15
moment.
25:16
Man, it led up. I I was studio junkie.
25:19
So when I before I got the drum, I was
25:22
at the studio with Lil Yachty. Shoutout
25:24
Lil Yachty and Pierre. He had Shark and
25:28
Chavo and all them. And at this time I'm
25:30
going back and forth from Jacksonville
25:33
to Atlanta.
25:34
Now me and my little Florida boy, we
25:36
handling all this now. So I'm in there
25:38
every single day squeezing in just
25:41
working working my wiggle. I was king
25:43
wiggle. Like known for I'm going to make
25:45
something happen out of nothing. So I'm
25:46
working in the studio every single day.
25:48
I just took my method from Jacksonville
25:49
once I moved to Atlanta.
25:51
Took that method that I had down there
25:52
and just applied it up here. I'mma be in
25:53
somebody's studio every single day cuz
25:56
it only take one. It only take one song.
25:59
So as long as I'm in the studio every
26:00
single day keep coming in with this.
26:02
Keep up with my appearance. Keep up with
26:03
my health. Keep up with my money the
26:04
best way I can at the time.
26:07
Something got to pop. I'm going to meet
26:08
him. I'm in Atlanta. It's going to get
26:10
round. So I wanted to just move around
26:11
with Yachty and certain people that I
26:13
knew was lit in the A and had a good
26:14
name but not going not doing too much to
26:17
where it was comfortable. And one thing
26:19
led to another. I met Willie Joe. Video
26:21
and then we end up at a video shoot.
26:24
Through through this boy named David at
26:25
the time. I had a whole video shoot meet
26:27
him. You know what I'm saying? Then it
26:28
go from that
26:29
to a whole another like scenery. We just
26:31
locked in from there. He kept seeing me.
26:33
Kept seeing me till they like, "Oh yeah,
26:35
we got to lock you in now."
26:36
Setty, considering all that you've put
26:39
into this music so far, if you had to
26:41
choose between being the best artist or
26:44
the best mogul, which one would you lean
26:47
towards?
26:48
If you had to choose just one.
26:50
I would rather be the best artist.
26:53
Okay.
26:53
I'd rather be the best artist cuz
26:54
artists come with a lot. It ain't just
26:57
rap music, everything.
26:58
I'm an artist.
27:01
Setty Hendrix is here.
27:03
Jimi Hendrix, Future Hendrix, Setty
27:06

27:06
Same lineage.
27:07

27:09

27:30
Hey, hey, hey.
27:30

27:33
So, my question for you, Mr. Hendrix, I
27:37
actually got to go pick up my son right
27:38
now from school cuz he just got in
27:40
trouble, my 15-year-old, for singing
27:42
your song "Trying".
27:44
Oh, man.
27:45
I'm dying.
27:47
He trying. At least he trying.
27:50
My question to you, and excuse my tears,
27:54
through all the adversities that you
27:56
faced in life,
27:58
did you ever think you would not make
28:00
it?
28:01
Excuse me.
28:03
Yeah, I did. I did at one point thought
28:05
I wasn't going to make it, but like I
28:06
said, baby girl, for every dark night
28:08
there's a brighter day. You got to have
28:10
that faith. You got to keep this faith.
28:12
You got to smile. You breathing, it's a
28:13
lot to be living for. That your child,
28:15
it's a lot. It's You have too much to be
28:17
grateful for.
28:17
Mhm.
28:18
somebody that's always probably in a
28:20
worse position than you is. So, we all
28:22
pray for them, too. But just when it get
28:24
like that, that's when you need to go to
28:25
him hard. You need to go closer. You
28:27
need to cry out to him. Go all the way
28:29
to him 110.
28:30
Trust me. I don't been there. We all get
28:32
there, but you got to climb up out of
28:33
that.
28:34
And then and make sure your son and then
28:36
make sure your son has Setty Hendrix
28:38
music and it'll get better.
28:39
Mandatory.

30:37
For sure.
30:37
You know, and this is where it happens.
30:39

For sure. For sure.
31:14

31:15

31:20
I I overstand, Sway.

31:25
come up here and tell me, "Nah, Sway,

I mean, if they from the cloth, then you
31:34
