I don't need it right now, man. I don't need no kids. + + + + + + + + + + I mean, I ain't even ready to get married yet, so why would I bring a kid into this world? I mean, I grew up without my dad, and I finally moved to Georgia with my dad, but + + + + + + + + + + man, he was there + + + + + + + + + + like salt and pepper every now and then. + + + + + + + + + + But I don't wanna be that type of dad. I wanna be able to fully develop some time into my kids. And, + + + + + + + + + + you know, not saying I'm running from the responsibility, but like I said, I just know + + + + + + + + + + it's growth right now. + + + + + + + + + + I'm still growing in myself, + + + + + + + + + + still learning who I am, + + + + + + + + + + [hence] the name I am, + + + + + + + + + + you know what I'm saying, so. + + + + + + + + + + [That's where I'm] at with it. + + + + + + + + + + Um, + + + + + + + + + + nah, not really. I tried dumbing it down, but I just can't do it. + + + + + + + + + + [It's like] you- you learn so much and you b- + + + + + + + + + + you wanna spit it out, and that's how I am, man. + + + + + + + + + + That dumbing it down and + + + + + + + + + + n- tryna sound dumb on interviews and- and stuff. It's like, I'm just gonna speak my mind. I don't think I'm the smartest. + + + + + + + + + + I ain't the dumbest. + + + + + + + + + + [I just] speak what come to my mind, what I feel like is real. + + + + + + + + + + I mean, /it's-/ that's really what it is, from the music to just being a person. Anybody who around me, man, know + + + + + + + + + + I'm pretty much real. I a- + + + + + + + + + + I- I respect feelings, + + + + + + + + + + [but] I'm a realist at the end of the day. Like I'm'a give you the realest a- + + + + + + + + + + best + + + + + + + + + + answer I know to give you + + + + + + + + + + on anything. All the scenari- whatever it might be, I'm'a- I'm'a try to keep it real with you as- + + + + + + + + + + as one thousand as possible. + + + + + + + + + + I mean, I fuck with my family. + + + + + + + + + + But they know I'm on a mission right now, so I block a lot of stuff out. + + + + + + + + + + You know what I'm saying, you know I love 'em, but like I said, I gotta block stuff out to focus on me. I can't let they feelings be my feelings. + + + + + + + + + + I can't let what they go through determine my actions. + + + + + + + + + + You know, sometime they just gotta go through it, and you just gotta deal with the consequences as they come, you know. Something happened then + + + + + + + + + + that's just something I gotta live with, you know. God be + + + + + + + + + + /on that/ happened to my family, you know what I'm saying, but + + + + + + + + + + at the same time, + + + + + + + + + + they know I'm on a mission + + + + + + + + + + not just for me but for them as well, + + + + + + + + + + so. + + + + + + + + + + Um, + + + + + + + + + + I don't really think it's a thing that's too focused when you ain't achieved your goal yet. + + + + + + + + + + [Yeah, so], + + + + + + + + + + mm, it's like + + + + + + + + + + taking a vacation, + + + + + + + + + + and you ain't- you ain't earned it. + + + + + + + + + + [It's like] getting a raise and you ain't earn- it's like you gotta put in the work. + + + + + + + + + + You can't go to boot camp + + + + + + + + + + in the army and say, I miss my family, and I wanna go back home right quick. + + + + + + + + + + Nah, you there. + + + + + + + + + + [And] + + + + + + + + + + that's just- that's just what it is. + + + + + + + + + + Oh yeah, of course, man. You know that. + + + + + + + + + + /Sh/, man, + + + + + + + + + + anything from Kelz Kitchen. + + + + + + + + + + But, you know, when I'm chilling at the house and I'm cooking, Ro-Tel dip. + + + + + + + + + + Uh, + + + + + + + + + + lasagna, + + + + + + + + + + you know, something of that sort. You know, I like cooking too. + + + + + + + + + + Man, + + + + + + + + + + I'm a foodetarian. + + + + + + + + + + Man, they know better. Folk don't come to me on that BS, man. They just read the personality, man. + + + + + + + + + + Folk come to me with respect, man. + + + + + + + + + + So it ain't even got nothing to do with it. + + + + + + + + + + Yeah. + + + + + + + + + + Uh, I got some stuff on the way, man. + + + + + + + + + + Got a new single I been- I mean, it's kind of obvious what it's gonna be called. I put it in every photo. + + + + + + + + + + The Sign, + + + + + + + + + + so. + + + + + + + + + + [You] know what I'm saying, /and/ I got a- I got a- I got a album on the way. + + + + + + + + + + So I- + + + + + + + + + + my focus was not really tryna put so much attention on + + + + + + + + + + to dropping something this year. It was really just focusing on it and getting it where I could drop it the right way + + + + + + + + + + with the right marketing behind it, man. I- I'm'a- I'm'a always be relevant long as I walk around with that sign. + + + + + + + + + + [Like], + + + + + + + + + + [I mean], [I- that's just real] + + + + + + + + + + [Man, everywhere] I go, man, it's like + + + + + + + + + + [everybody] like- I could try to talk to people and give them compliments, + + + + + + + + + + and then somehow it always revert back to, man, you- your grinding /the sign/ you inspire me. So + + + + + + + + + + [I li- I like the fact that people tell me I inspire them, man.] + + + + + + + + + + I mean, it's just- I'm just speaking facts, man. A lot of artists be telling me, bruh, you the only artist + + + + + + + + + + that I really feel like is + + + + + + + + + + the competition when I be really feeling like, + + + + + + + + + + [you ain't] my competition. Not- no disrespect to no artists or [nothing, but it just] + + + + + + + + + + the competition is so much bigger than + + + + + + + + + + ATL, so much bigger than the South. We competing against + + + + + + + + + + people across the world. So, + + + + + + + + + + [you know], I dig them for them to say that I'm their competition, + + + + + + + + + + [or] that I'm somebody they + + + + + + + + + + feel like they, + + + + + + + + + + you know, + + + + + + + + + + [one and two or two and one, however that] may be the one two punch, you know what I'm saying. [But I get that] from a lot of artists, but + + + + + + + + + + /yeah/, you ain't not finna get that from me because they not my competition, man i- + + + + + + + + + + [Nah, I- I'm] looking at the person like in the mirror. + + + + + + + + + + Man, Drake- I mean, + + + + + + + + + + e- Drake ain't no bigger than + + + + + + + + + + me, or Drake ain't no bigger than nobody else. He just had his opportunity before we did. + + + + + + + + + + [You] know what I'm saying, he just had his opportunity come, and that's it, you know what I'm saying. I'm'a have my opportunity when it come, + + + + + + + + + + I'm'a be- + + + + + + + + + + probably go longer than Drake as far as number one [hits] + + + + + + + + + + cause I got 'em. + + + + + + + + + + And then I still ain't even reached- + + + + + + + + + + I still ain't even learnt myself fully. I haven't been able to be in the studio + + + + + + + + + + twenty-four hours back [to back to back], + + + + + + + + + + [you know] what I'm saying, [I- I can only go to the] studio when I can afford to go, + + + + + + + + + + you know what I'm saying. And that's cool. I can knock out five, six songs in about a four, five hour session. + + + + + + + + + + But + + + + + + + + + + to learn yourself to just be in there and just learn yourself, man, that's a whole different- + + + + + + + + + + [whole different feeling], man, you [know what I'm saying.] + + + + + + + + + + I don't think nobody touching me right now. I don't think nobody gonna be touching me then. You know, I'm already a dangerous guy. + + + + + + + + + + So when I really get + + + + + + + + + + that- + + + + + + + + + + a team that work just as hard as me all across the board, + + + + + + + + + + it's gonna be even more dangerous. + + + + + + + + + + [Um], (breathy) + + + + + + + + + + I mean, first of all, I just wanna see the people support it. All the people who say- talk to me out in the streets, I just wanna see them support. That's the biggest market, word of mouth + + + + + + + + + + [through] the people, you know what I'm saying. + + + + + + + + + + I'm not gonna really release all my m- + + + + + + + + + + my strategies that we got planned up + + + + + + + + + + [cause we] still cooking 'em up. + + + + + + + + + + But, you know, just to have people + + + + + + + + + + themselves talking about what I got going on telling somebody else about it /?/. That's the best marketing because + + + + + + + + + + I only know about music when my friends tell me about it. + + + + + + + + + + [And] it's like, okay, I gotta listen to it now cause you told me about it. I know you don't listen to that BS music. So + + + + + + + + + + word of mouth, just people rocking with the sign, man. + + + + + + + + + + Oh yeah, that nigga, he's- man, look, that [boy, he-] + + + + + + + + + + [that] boy's a beast, man. I g- I give credit when credit due. Like he really talking about something. + + + + + + + + + + So I'm'a always support. + + + + + + + + + + It's his time, man. [It was just his time], man. It's his time, man. + + + + + + + + + + [Everybody have they] time, man. Timing is everything. That why- + + + + + + + + + + that's why people, um, preach patience so much cause + + + + + + + + + + you gonna have your time. You just gotta be ready. And it's almost like + + + + + + + + + + when you- when you- when it's really your time, you gotta- y- you gonna be scared a little bit cause it's a [lot that come] with that, you know what I'm saying. + + + + + + + + + + I had a studio session one time. I was scared to go home. The music was so fire I thought somebody was gonna take me off on the way home. + + + + + + + + + + Nah, it's [real- it's some real] shit [though.] + + + + + + + + + + I was like, man, this music too good. Let me go ahead and hide. + + + + + + + + + + [I] know. I'm [definitely out] there. I- I went to two spots last night, + + + + + + + + + + s- walked in with the sign. Man, look, I'm not dimming my light for nobody twenty eighteen, man. + + + + + + + + + + You either gonna let me in, + + + + + + + + + + [you know what I'm saying.] + + + + + + + + + + [Ay, man.] + + + + + + + + + + [Ay.] + + + + + + + + + + Never thought that, man. + + + + + + + + + + Never thought that. + + + + + + + + + + I had two people tell me when I first got the sign, they was like, nah, bruh, don't do it. One of 'em is a rapper, and one of 'em is a- + + + + + + + + + + is a nobody. + + + + + + + + + + [/Mm-hm./] + + + + + + + + + + [<laugh>] + + + + + + + + + + [And] to me, both of them nobodies, but, you know what I'm [saying], + + + + + + + + + + [I'm just li-] + + + + + + + + + + [yeah, it's] like, nigga, ay, + + + + + + + + + + you can't tell me what it is. + + + + + + + + + + I'm- I'm getting it. + + + + + + + + + + You know what I'm saying, like /the sa-/ I b- I been grinding the same way, + + + + + + + + + + you know what I'm saying, but now people starting to- + + + + + + + + + + to see me + + + + + + + + + + [cause of the light.] But the light powerful. Look up the light in the Bible. + + + + + + + + + + You know what I'm saying, look up the light anything. You can't even walk down a dark alley without light. + + + + + + + + + + Yeah, you not.
