Lady London Dedicates Freestyle to DJ Clark Kent & Chino XL ❤️, Talks New Music & Tour

0:00
one of the most elite scientific skillful MC's in the game who
0:06
came out with her own style i can look at this list and tell you the style that
0:11
most of these artists were influenced by but you can't tell me a style that this MC was influenced by she created her own
0:19
style i got to know her through my brother the one and only DJ Clark Kent
0:24
rest in power yes and I remember the day he called me and he just banged my ear
0:30
like "Yo Sway blah blah blah you got to" And I'm like "Clark come on man i know
0:35
it's me dog we've been doing this for decades you're not going to convince me right?" And then her uncle Chino Excel
0:41
called me rest in power that was my brother as well and gave me her history
0:47
like "Nah man since she was little you know and I'm not going to tell you cuz Tina would not give anybody props unless
0:54
they deserved it and I got a chance to hear her and and and honestly I haven't
0:59
been as involved in her progress as I possibly could be because I enjoy
1:07
watching her I just said it as a fan like and watching her figure it out
1:12
going from social media clips and doing poetry and making herself extremely
1:18
popular that way but using her intellectuality to know how to make that into a brand and then go against the
1:25
grain and do it her own way uh and built up her own foundation and not being
1:30
thirsty not chasing anything and then putting out projects that count ain't a
1:36
thousand projects you going to get from her but the ones that you do they definitely count that soul project was
1:42
one of my favorites uh especially when it starts off with that intro that never song you did too was one of my favorites
1:50
as well but we watch her devour microphones over the years i didn't even
1:55
ask her to come up here to rap right i reached out and said "Damn we got to get together i miss you i miss you." And she
2:02
said "Suay i'm about to fly out of town but I'll stay an extra day to come and talk with y'all please welcome somebody
2:08
who should be on a real list the one and only Lady London is here." Yes yes yes
2:14
yes our little sis man for real where she from Sway um her mama
2:23
wow after the stunt you pull with Ryan and we had to hear about Oakland yeah
2:28
where you from originally big J you know oh damn starring the star set i keep
2:34
trying to tell you about female rappers from Jersey it's different but it is it
2:39
though is it it's It's up there i mean we got Lauren we got Latifah we got Heather B you know we got Whitney so I
2:46
mean we not even talking about rappers we got Whitney that's true hey Whitney around the corner too right there right
2:53
did y'all live in you East Orange and you I was Jersey City but it's not far
2:58
it's not It's over a bridge did you feel the the the influence of Jersey female
3:04
MC's coming up is that like you could have went a whole another route yeah i mean I wasn't really interested in that
3:10
growing up but I always love hip-hop like I didn't think I was going to be in it i just was always surrounded by it you know from my uncle to you know being
3:18
in Loud Records when I was younger moving around just being in the New York City area during um hip-hop's
3:24
renaissance that's all you know that's all you felt you know so I didn't think I was going to be a part of it let alone
3:31
make a a staple here like this so yeah you made a a huge staple it's hip-hop
3:37
has changed though you know uh from that time to now and and I often even as a a
3:42
veteran you know I'm I I I humble myself a lot and like I don't feel like I know
3:47
everything or that I have to know everything i'm just curious to you right
3:52
now having gone through that renaissance and now you're a big factor in hip-hop culture h how has it changed for you
3:58
does it look the same does it feel the same like what is it now hip-hop is such
4:05
in a weird place I think right now i won't say weird it's just it's changing it's it's always the movement in it and
4:12
and this may get me in a little bit of trouble but I would say hip-hop is rap is the only sport where the people who
4:19
good don't get no playing time wow it's probably the it's probably
4:25
um it's probably to me at least um I would love to see a little bit more inclusion um and a little more diversity
4:33
in the space mhm so yeah I was thinking of you i want to say it was the never
4:38
song where um um they correct me if I'm wrong where
4:44
there's there's a part where people are just kind of ridiculing you about the sound of your voice you know all the
4:51
time right and is she going to write another book you know did she really go to medical school all these different
4:57
things and then I was looking at Will Smith's album brand new i don't know if you heard it yet i didn't get a chance
5:03
to but I've been seeing clips okay and and it's the intro of his album he does the same thing he confronts every
5:10
criticism that he's received in the past few years head on right is that is that
5:15
why you did that and do you still get these criticisms absolutely um the criticism continues to roll in but I
5:21
mean critics without credentials right it is what it is it's it's something that I've grown u tougher skin for but I
5:27
think purposely but never I structured it where in the beginning of the song you hear all this ridicule and at the end of the song you hear all this praise
5:33
and so that basically was me showing the duality of how I think the world
5:38
eventually can see somebody like you can start as somebody's biggest critic but end up really deep inside you're
5:44
actually a fan so I kind of want to create that environment where it's like you go from hating to praising or
5:50
whatever but I mean yeah I still face it on head on and the crazy thing is it's like almost you beating somebody to the
5:55
punch line with with something if you address it in your music and you address it in your art form it's like I said it
6:00
so y'all don't have to keep saying it i I hear the crit i hear y'all i get it i can see what y'all saying about me so um
6:08
I love that he did that that's important yeah you got a um based What is it true story what's the name of the album yeah
6:14
based on a true story based on a true story that's a great story do Do you seek out validation with your music not
6:21
anymore i think I validation is for park and not people i I'm seeking an affirmation from a higher power i think
6:27
this was the seed that was planted in me that um you know before it was 10 people
6:33
before it was 100 people before it was a thousand people or 10,000 people that supported me the seed was planted in me and and with or without them here will
6:39
still be in me and I think I have to keep that level of almost delusion in order for me to not to fold under the
6:46
pressures of what it takes to make it here like as long as I know this is mine this is my seed to that was planted to
6:53
make a harvest here then I got to just go in that space yo Heather B I swear
6:58
man I feel like I need you for a therapist
7:04
go talk to the lady yeah talk to the lady cuz you you always
7:10
um I'm so super proud of you you know and um and and then those guys you know
7:16
I don't I don't want to go too deep in it but you know um cuz I'll tear up but those two men you know uh were very
7:24
special to me obviously and so uh but I watch you and it's like man niece always
7:30
got it really got it together and I remember reading tell correct me if I'm wrong that when you got baptized yeah
7:36
right how old were you 23 23 yeah 23 you made a decision u to get baptized and
7:43
that's an age where people are really running a muck you know what I mean what what what drove you what made you decide
7:50
at that time in your life to do that and then I want to ask you how your spirituality plays a part in your
7:55
creativity um I don't think you come to repentance without something exporting
8:01
you there mhm so I had man my knees in the dirt it was so much going on and I
8:06
felt like I just didn't have no direction i had no source like I would go through things and I didn't know where to direct
8:13
my my request to like I didn't really grow up in like a super religious household it was like very kind of like
8:20
do what you do be who you are i want you to you know be expressive of that but I think I don't know something happened uh
8:27
pivotal I feel like in my college time around like 1920 and I just went on a
8:32
journey there where I wanted to learn everything i read the read the Bible full through and through i wanted to understand all the elements of it before
8:38
I committed myself to doing it and I got baptized um September of that year
8:44
September 23rd or something like that and then um as far as like how it moves
8:49
in my music now it's everything it's literally how how I navigate everything
8:56
like from the titling of my albums to the transitions the interludes um even my album that I'm working on right now
9:02
is begins with God and ends with God it's like the intro and the outro the alpha the omega the head and not the tail just like my spirituality is the
9:10
sole backbone of who I am it's my identity uhhuh yeah if if you have friends who are on that frequency or
9:17
even men you know Uhhuh do they do they still have a place in your life that are on what frequency that that that's you
9:23
know they they have faith they believe they're a believer yeah yeah absolutely
9:29
absolutely you have to be in order to be around me okay i think there's there has to be some type of belief system in in
9:34
place whatever that is just make sure you believe that there's a higher source cuz if you don't have no belief in that I don't see how far friendship
9:41
relationship anything like that can go with me because you you're just looking at me like I'm crazy and I know I'm not crazy so but you got a crazy outfit on
9:49
today she grled out right now and you knew where you was coming today huh i love it the
9:54
microphone screaming shout out to Custom Creators in Atlanta for doing this create design custom for me i appreciate
10:00
it you you you also have a a savvy sense for business you know is what I noticed
10:06
and the business um has constantly evolves like you got to you got to find your way in you know how to fit in if
10:13
you were to be interviewed now by a group of upand cominging artists what would be the the things you would tell
10:19
them to to watch out for make sure you do this and this can amount to this this is how you actually make money today you
10:25
could get a lot of views but you ain't going to make a lot of money like what what kind of things have you learned around the in the course of your career
10:33
i think the most important thing for an artist to do is understand that artistry goes beyond your creation like beyond
10:41
your music or whatever first you're an artist then you're a brand and then you're a business and if you structure
10:48
your life like that you have infinite potential um excuse me uh man it's so
10:55
much consistency in anything is important um establishing yourself as a brand allows your reputation to stay in
11:01
rooms for longer than you do so if you have like this great way that you brand partner with people then other brands
11:08
will want to partner with you forever all your money is in brand partnerships okay it's in touring it's in merchandise
11:14
product is key making sure you're always selling something even if it's not under your name you can sell anything and be
11:20
the face of a product that you're you know like not necessarily like a public
11:26
owner of if that makes sense um there's no money in music there's no money in
11:31
actual music yeah there's no money in music there's no money in actual music because in the digital era that in the
11:39
era that we're in now streaming era Yeah i want people to understand it takes 80
11:45
streams on Apple Music to make $1 you have to listen to this song 80
11:50
times to make a dollar wow so if you understand that listening to the same
11:55
song at each time that that's what the machine is that's where you get people to like all the bots to listen to all
12:01
your stuff a million million times that's how you get it up but if we just looking at the streaming numbers we're not in a place where music itself
12:08
grosses from streaming so you have to have physical copies purchased you have to have merchandise you have to tour you
12:14
have to do brand partnerships um and you have to establish yourself beyond your artistry so So what is the music is just
12:21
like a a billboard or is it you know it's your foundation it's what you it's what you market is what you uh what your
12:27
face is too but it's not the way you make your money right and that's the worst case scenario is somebody who
12:33
invests fully only in their music and have no other ventures because you'll be dead broke dead broke because what you
12:40
put into music you don't always get back you almost never get back never get back when last time you've been dead broke
12:46
how long ago was that dead broke dead yeah broke broke Not too long ago uh
12:53
maybe 2019 maybe 2019 yeah six years ago she
12:58
said not too long ago that wasn't too long ago yeah well when I once I got emotion in it it worked and I mean Clark
13:04
Kent used to tell me how to you know manage my money all the time if you can't if you can't buy it 10 times don't buy it once it's like it's I can hear
13:11
his voice in my head saying it a million times he's like and I remember telling him like I heard twice i heard if you
13:16
can't buy it twice he was like 10 times 10 times 10 times that means you can't afford it yeah you can't afford it he was like even if it's down to a
13:22
McDonald's fry for a dollar if you don't have $10 you can't have that fry and it's something that like stuck with me
13:28
like constantly you know what I'm saying so Clark said if you can't buy it 10 times
13:34
you can't buy it you can't afford it you can't afford it can't afford it write that down [ __ ] i Oh Sway you the main
13:41
one about the fries that's all you buy is food right
13:46
also lunch on that always lunch or he will buy you food no I need you to buy her groceries to get my food talk to
13:53
your man cuz I've been meaning to go stop by to get a head plate anytime he's
13:59
there now we We actually live in the same building across the hall from each other and I went to sleep y'all cannot
14:04
separate it's him it's not me it's him it's this guy i went to sleep last night when him on my brain as he closed the
14:11
door did somebody call me to come eat that was the last thing he said last night i had some
14:17
I made some rice and peas and and brown stew fish and he said "Did somebody call
14:23
me?" Nobody called him well actually Keelani called him but I didn't somebody call me where my phone at because I'm
14:29
going to show you what the meal look we got time wow sway you really need to get your life together wait so drop the
14:35
address cuz I'm not too far you know I'm like in Glendale so you're in Glendale yeah I've been
14:41
here for seven years but I also I own another house in Texas too so I'm kind of back and forth that way hold up she
14:47
owns another house man give that a round of applause that's what I was trying to get to why Texas um cost of living um
14:55
I've just created a like peace oasis there that I just really enjoy so was it a place that you visited and fell in
15:02
love with or somebody just said this this is the spot where you need how because I'm always curious how we pick
15:08
places that we're not from to live like we're in Cal Well I'm in California because of work i've always loved it in
15:14
the back of my mind but I'm here because I work and deep down I always knew God told me I would live here one day he
15:21
told me that didn't know how long it would take but it happened for me what was the inspiration behind Texas um I
15:27
actually was in a relationship like two years ago and um the guy who I was with
15:33
I remember like 3 months into us dating I was like "Yeah you can't come over here cuz there's bills everywhere you
15:38
got to have to pay some bills for you to come over my apartment." Right it's a funny joke now but whatever um so he's
15:44
like "Man how much this little rent whatever whatever." So he ends up paying my paying my rent or whatever and I
15:50
remember him texting me and being like "You don't want to own something like I feel like you know we paying into
15:55
something that you don't have like you don't have ownership of." He was like "I'd rather buy you a house like this is you know whatever whatever." So um I had
16:02
always kind of wanted to get real estate in Texas this is crazy no for real for real just something in your spirit i
16:08
wanted to get real estate in Texas i felt like you can actually own there you know like where we from a lot of people don't own like you know for your whole
16:15
life so um we ended up going down there looking at some properties we were picking some out or whatever um and he
16:21
was actually murdered like that same year oh my god so I in in the midst of the process I continued on to source a
16:28
house um and just saw the vision through so that's really like that was the whole thing it's okay everybody's all right
16:35
but um it's it's like you know I have so many protectors in the spiritual realm
16:41
you know what I'm saying so the the last like year and a half for me has been like okay like just give me two seconds
16:48
to get my foot in a in a good place but um yeah so I just you know sought out the vision thoroughly and um I think I'm
16:56
I have a special hedge of protection there for that exact reason amen i like how you say that the protectors in the
17:03
spiritual realm sure and I tell people all the time when they say "What's been the key?" What do you think the key of
17:09
your longevity has been and I said "My protectors that follow me in my spiritual realm." I mean my spiritual
17:15
realm is um how I find balance um and I thank I thank you for saying that too
17:21
because that that helps me out because some of your protectors are my brothers am I your protector across the hall with
17:26
the food well look let me show you this lady London look at this this is Kehani who's right there is texting me this hey
17:32
Uncle this is what we're eating tonight and so I was I didn't get no text i
17:37
didn't get no nothing nah I wasn't going to text you so good wow uh but I was I was eating at Raw Fast and Okay you know
17:44
Raw Fies i'm very familiar yes yes last night in Glendale and so I was full so I
17:50
didn't I didn't get this meal that Heather cooked oh wow yeah she does this all the time so instead you said I'll be
17:56
over tomorrow which is today oh wow yeah so I'm going to eat it so what's the meal today he getting leftovers i'm not
18:02
thinking about him i ain't thinking about him sis she's thinking about herself she ain't even thinking about me
18:08
either you know all right so what's the meal you know asking for a friend yeah yeah okay you when you leave uh tomorrow
18:16
tomorrow done done that's Listen I love her
18:21
jersey i love her i love it here jersey jersey yo Tracy all the way in New York with Mike Muse tracy you want to dive in
18:27
this yeah d absolutely boo we rock with you so easily i love hearing from you i
18:35
love the intellectualism you have the layers that you have i think it's important that you naturally showcase
18:42
the range of a woman because you have very boss energy and I feel like you can
18:47
tap into your divine masculine that doesn't take away from you still being a woman but then there's also like a
18:53
tenderness and we know that our femininity can show up in different ways
18:59
depending on the room that we're in depending on what we're creating how do
19:04
you feel like how would you define your femin your femininity as an artist and
19:10
your femininity when you're at home when you're with your core like intimate crew
19:16
talk to us about that um I think that femininity as a whole
19:22
blossoms when you feel safe um I think it's a it it opens itself up to you know
19:28
a comfort zone and so definitely when I'm amongst familiar spirits I'm always in my divine feminine i feel like I'm
19:35
always just kind of maneuvering in a very like soft and nurturing way i'm also super cancer so you know the vibes
19:42
yeah so it's I'm definitely the mother you know I'm I'm a big sister i'm the oldest you know so it's a lot of things
19:48
that I just feel like have nurturing motherly qualities as it is um but in my
19:53
music I love to be the softspoken like maniac like I cannot
20:00
believe that's what you just said out of that little voice you know what I'm saying like that's what's important to me i can't help the fact that my voice
20:07
is light but I'mma say something that make you feel like okay well softspoken
20:13
but you heard me you know what I'm saying so I think um I am I think I have
20:18
a great duality of that you know to be hard and soft at the same time it's it's a good like sweet and sour mix it makes
20:24
me think of Sway when we were talking about the importance of spending time in nature if Sway likes to show off about
20:30
all his makeout sessions with mother nature and how she'd be kissing on his skin
20:38
but you know even though mother nature is is gorgeous I'm screaming it
20:44
creates you know the butterflies and the lakes but mother nature also lives within the tornadoes as well that is
20:50
still like mother nature and I think sometimes we forget that and so when that manifests through like uh a female
20:57
artist and she does something that maybe is very provocative or showcases that
21:02
she also owns a spirit of bravado it makes people uncomfortable because they
21:07
only see one side of us as nurturers yeah I agree and I I too love the nature
21:15
well not super nature i like water i like the sound of water i like um being
21:20
next to water i love the frequencies that exist in it um not so much the dirt i don't really into that side of your
21:27
thing you ain't grounding much water sign not earth
21:35
no camping no glamping no none of that you ain't going fishing damn bring the fish back though i like
21:42
fresh fresh food but I'm just a girl are you excited about the tour and how did
21:47
that come about because that's coming like in a couple weeks i'm so excited i'm equally as nervous it's a lot that
21:53
goes into a tour as you guys know I'm doing all 33 cities and so Dope i didn't know that yep yeah man doing all 33
22:01
cities this will be my first time on the road blessings blessings yes this your first time on the road yeah this is my first time like in a series i did like a
22:07
four city tour last year that was like okay get a little taste of how whatever but this will be my first time i'm
22:12
opening for Coco Jones she's incredible i just love her man i just hope to be an asset to the tour for real you know like
22:19
okay bet y'all are a great pairing i want people to make sure like when they come out if they didn't know me before
22:25
that it becomes one of them experiences that's like okay like I'm a fan now you
22:30
know um that's the goal actually it's so funny cuz um I was I seen uh Guap dad
22:36
yesterday um and you know where you from Heather oh I told you it was bad here i
22:43
seen him yesterday at this uh Puma event and he was he was like man you about to go out on the road how you feeling i was
22:48
like I'm good i said "You have any advice?" He's like "Nah not really." And we end up having a a regular talk or whatever and he's like "I will say not
22:55
every city going to like you like you're not going to get every like the love that you expect in every city but don't
23:00
take it personal." And I was like "Why you say that?" He was like "I went out on the road with Wle and you know people
23:06
that came came to see him." He was like "So I had to understand that you know it wasn't really my show." He's like "So I
23:13
didn't really take it too crazy." He was like "But if you can grab 10 people 15 people in the audience grab them." them
23:18
he like "Meet me at the merch table." You know what I'm saying like do what you can with what you have control the
23:23
controllables with that and so he was like "And there'll be cities where people really like you as much as they
23:29
like Coco." You know what I'm saying you just got to know how to navigate and this the best advice I got cuz everybody
23:34
sugar coats you know it's like "Oh Tor be you're going to have a great time you're going to like love the fan." But
23:40
it'd be nice to hear like man one day might not go how I think and I don't want to internalize it so it's funny i I
23:47
learned a trick um shout out to KRS1 cuz it's something that he taught me he was my music mentor and that was the first
23:53
time I've been on tour with him um so bomb no well what it was I I didn't So
24:01
there was no social media there was no way of building yourself up i didn't have any followers i was on a bonus
24:06
track on his Edutainment album nobody knew who the hell we were yeah but what I learned through him um on this tour he
24:14
was like "Your strength is in your lyrics and your voice write ac cappella
24:19
freestyles." And at any given moment if you know you got that freestyle in the back of your
24:25
head in any city you could drop a beat you going to win that crowd over cuz they may not know your music but if a
24:31
freestyle and you kicking some bars whatever it is you going to win that crowd now they listen to your music so
24:38
nobody ain't got to tell you to write you already got that that gift that God gave you have that in the chamber as
24:43
well cuz the sound may go out this may happen somebody may not be feeling your music to Guap dad's point but when they
24:50
realize that you could spit is over game cut all this [ __ ] off and listen to me
24:56
spit something you got them so take that gym there's a KRS1 gym that's yours now
25:02
take it put that in your crown sis you deserve it that tour kicking off in May by the way okay um Mike Mu would you
25:09
want to jump in yeah I've been really enjoying this conversation i have a question for you because you seem so
25:14
very centered um you mentioned that the and the spirit the spirituality and the ancestors protect you i'm just curious
25:22
in the physical realm um do you have a group of friends and family that centers
25:28
you because it seems like it's coming from a source from somewhere you don't have to name names but I'm just curious
25:33
yeah I mean definitely um my family my sisters my grandmother my mom and just
25:39
like the chosen family that I have here in my in my camp they keep me grounded we all pray together we we're all very
25:45
very aligned in what we do i don't have like um celebrity friends i have like
25:51
friends that I've been friends with since for years i mean 10 plus years went to college with um have experienced
25:57
real life you know trials with you know I think if people can't be along for the
26:03
drive they shouldn't be there when you park so I'm in a very like specific like
26:08
space of who I have around me because I don't want to win and look around and
26:14
see that nobody who I anticipated this win with is around me anymore so real um
26:20
yeah I mean I'm I'm extremely centered um or at least I try to be as much as possible um touching grass in a in a
26:27
very like not actually touching grass lately you know what I mean like I try to stay Thank you so much even in your
26:34
in your choice of words that you're very measured with your words oh thank you she's she's like you Mike she's very
26:40
intelligent and educated uh how was it Howard University of course there you go hu you know is that what I am is that
26:48
the real HU yes the only Harvard not even as HU as us yeah man you know I I
26:55
you know I take pride in that i'm a I'm a HU dad now i know
27:01
right i got the I got She chose up i love that for her it's so lonely at the
27:06
top like she I'm so happy you gang sis congratulations baby bison her name Her
27:12
name is Komi shout her out for me yes shout out Komi oh my god we love you
27:18
baby bison hu the real Howard you will never experience anything like you are
27:24
at Howard University so why you say that because I was happy when she made that decision and I've been to the campus a
27:31
couple times felt like I was back in school you know and um I'm she's in u
27:36
she's she's getting her u she's in grad school and going get her MBA in finance and she just made student of the week
27:43
there we go i don't know if that was important to say to y'all oh that's very important congratulations
27:48
congratulations yeah thank you guys it's like I did it uh but that the impact of a HBCU like
27:56
how how has how does that still play a part in your life today man it teaches you everything about this world it's so
28:02
funny because a lot of people that attend PWIS will insist that like 72% of
28:07
the world is white and like that doesn't teach you anything about the real world and in fact it actually does teach you discipline and tenacity and resilience
28:14
and fortitude mental fortitude more specifically to fight for your place in rooms and and for your um what what's
28:22
due to you you know uh it doesn't it teach you not to feel guilty about speaking out or organizing or taking
28:27
issue with the conditions of black people in America and beyond and um it's
28:33
a place where you no one can tell you no like you don't understand the world the word no at Howard i speak for Howard
28:40
specifically like no no no just means I gotta find another way to get this done like that you know I was told I had 44
28:47
credits left to graduate when I was a senior I called my mom I told her she was like girl I paid for four years now five I don't know how you about to get
28:52
up out of there but I'll be there in May I bought my ticket took 23 credits my freshman year I mean my fall semester
28:59
and 21 my spring semester and got right over that stage they were telling me there was a cap 18 credit cap cool I'm
29:07
going to overrides after override I'm going to talk to advisers after advisers because no is not a thing and when you
29:12
transfer that into the real world you are unstoppable so damn 45 diabolical
29:20
working intern
29:25
um all right I want to ask you about one line in the um in the song um
29:31
um is you crazy and you say what's the line I wrote this down
29:38
you said oh you said um on the record you rap I'm a beat to Jay-Z
29:44
Z i didn't get that line it's actually I'm a B to a Jay-Z but
29:51
Oh that's why I didn't get the line well it could be it could be See okay triple
29:56
on Tundra don't even ask me how okay cuz you uh a beat to a Jay-Z is like I'm you
30:02
know I could pretty much do anything the way Jay-Z does to beats but I really originally wrote it as a B to a Jay-Z
30:08
and by a B I meant his wife and a billion wow yeah a billion okay yeah like it's
30:15
nothing you know what I mean like it's you know yeah it's nothing so it And so
30:22
you talked about the album coming right um what what kind of information can you give us about it oh my god it's you can
30:29
see the growth in the album you can see me being stretched beyond my own
30:35
imagination in it it's I I broke it up into categories okay so it'll be like
30:40
the cloth talk is what I call this one a portion of it that's like super elevated the Jay-Z bag if you will um and then
30:47
there's like the brunch vibes and then there's like the pain in it and then there's the interludes that go in
30:54
between it and then it's like this strip club [ __ ] you know what I mean like we having fun i'm having fun with music again good or learning to you know cuz
31:01
it it comes to a point where you get jaded over time like man I don't know it's hard to to do this like people not
31:07
messing with me people not whatever whatever then it's like you know one thing I've learned if nothing else is
31:13
