00:00 This is one of my main essentials.
00:01 This is my lyric book.
00:02 I wrote most of my last album in here.
00:04 A lot of the times when I write songs,
00:06 I like to think about what I'm going through.
00:09 And it's real personal to me,
00:10 so it's not like putting it in my phone notes.
00:12 When I write it down, I don't gotta show nobody.
00:14 No one can hack that.
00:15 No one could find out about it.
00:16 I could write anything in here.
00:18 I even write lyrics in here when I don't have a beat,
00:19 when I'm not in the studio.
00:21 So I like to keep it on me all the time.
00:22 I never know when I might just like
00:23 think of some random lines I gotta get down somewhere.
00:26 This is actually my first time
00:27 like buying a book designated for an album.
00:31 So looking forward, I'm probably gonna do one every album,
00:34 like a book every album.
00:35 'Cause after I finish my album, I ain't gonna touch this.
00:37 Like I'm probably gonna put this in like a glass case
00:40 and hang it up on my wall.
00:41 [upbeat music]
00:43 This right here is so essential.
00:45 This is a Chrome Hearts bag.
00:46 So, so, so essential.
00:48 And this is my bag.
00:49 I don't leave the house without it.
00:51 I don't leave my room without it.
00:53 Ever since I got this bag,
00:54 I just been carrying it with me everywhere.
00:55 You can ask me for anything, it's probably in this bag.
00:59 Also, this is my Chrome Hearts wallet chain,
01:01 which is also very, very essential.
01:03 I lose stuff a lot.
01:05 So I like to have clipped onto my pants all the time.
01:08 I don't leave the house without it.
01:09 People offer me different types of money for this
01:12 and I'm never selling it, ever.
01:14 Don't even offer no more.
01:15 [upbeat music]
01:18 If you don't know about this,
01:19 like I said, I do not trust you at all.
01:21 My favorite games on here is probably
01:24 Midnight Club, B-Boy, Jackass, Rainbow Six Siege, SoCalm,
01:29 but Midnight Club especially.
01:32 I gotta talk about Midnight Club.
01:33 If you know about that game,
01:34 especially the soundtrack of that game,
01:36 I grew up on these.
01:38 This is probably like my seventh PSP.
01:39 I used to break these all the time.
01:41 Little bit last year,
01:43 I was just playing my PSP before the shows.
01:45 It was very like common.
01:47 Roasting each other is a very big part of like
01:50 Xbox culture.
01:52 And if you know about them game chats,
01:54 you know how it can get.
01:56 We're not even gonna talk about that on here.
01:58 Y'all can do y'all own researches for that.
01:59 Roasting people through ramen was just another outlet
02:02 of just flaming them like,
02:04 just had to flame them and I'm like, oh shit.
02:06 I could probably do this on beats too.
02:09 So I found this app on the app store called BandLab.
02:12 Started downloading YouTube beats,
02:13 put it up in BandLab.
02:15 Apple headphones behind the pop filter.
02:17 Going crazy.
02:19 [upbeat music]
02:20 Now this right here,
02:22 super essential.
02:23 It's just another part of the swag.
02:24 I always keep one on me.
02:25 I got it on me right now.
02:27 This is just extra.
02:28 I'm on my Rambo swag right now.
02:29 It's just me versus everybody like,
02:31 I don't know.
02:32 I'm just in that mode.
02:33 Accessories are real big to me.
02:34 So adding stuff besides just a shirt,
02:37 pants and boots,
02:38 it's real important to like finishing the look for me
02:40 and making it look full.
02:42 [upbeat music]
02:45 This is my laptop and this is all my phones.
02:48 I'm gonna get into the laptop
02:49 because this is like my life.
02:50 This is like,
02:52 this is everything.
02:53 Like this is where my FL studio is at.
02:55 My Pro Tools at.
02:56 I record all my songs on here.
02:58 I make all my beats on here.
02:59 I edit videos on here.
03:02 Like this is everything.
03:04 This is like, this is tech for real.
03:06 Like this is tech.
03:07 Like in digital form.
03:08 If I lose this right here,
03:10 I lose everything.
03:12 So I keep it on me.
03:13 I don't even want it in the house
03:15 even if I'm not in the house.
03:16 This is my main phone.
03:17 This is like what I call all my friends on,
03:19 FaceTime, take my flicks on most of the time.
03:22 This was my old personal phone.
03:24 This phone, it's cracks falling off right now.
03:28 This phone been through it and back.
03:30 I still use this to this day sometimes
03:31 'cause it got like some of my music
03:32 that I don't, that on this phone on it.
03:34 These two is cameras.
03:35 And this one kind of been through it too.
03:37 I don't like getting phones fixed.
03:38 I don't know why.
03:39 I feel like it's,
03:40 breaks it more.
03:41 Every time I got a friend that get they phone fixed,
03:43 they come back to me like,
03:44 "Bro, my screen not working.
03:46 "Two weeks later, all this other stuff."
03:47 Like, I'm not with it.
03:48 So I just keep it broken.
03:49 And we still here.
03:51 I'm always in the studio.
03:56 I'm always on my feet.
03:57 So, when I'm rocking these uncomfortable shoes,
04:00 I like to just change it to something more comfortable
04:02 and just, like I said, keep it stylish.
04:06 Everything I got on me is stylish.
04:08 You see I'm wearing these.
04:11 After like four or five hours, six, seven hours,
04:14 you're gonna wanna change into these.
04:16 When I get dressed, it definitely depends on how I feel.
04:19 Sometimes I wake up and I just don't even care.
04:21 I might just wear sweats all day.
04:22 But sometimes I might wanna switch it up a little bit.
04:25 Sometimes I don't even care if I'm comfortable.
04:27 I might wear something uncomfortable just 'cause it's fly.
04:29 Clothes actually makes me feel awake.
04:32 Like I remember going to uniform school.
04:34 On those Fridays when they used to let us wear
04:36 what we wanted,
04:37 I used to act different on those Fridays, for real.
04:41 So that's what really made me fall in love with clothes.
04:43 'Cause I'm like, when I get to choose what I'm wearing
04:45 and I actually like it, it's just another expression
04:47 of how I'm feeling.
04:48 Especially when I don't see no one else rocking
04:50 what I'm rocking.
04:51 How I'm rocking it.
04:52 My most obvious essential are my glasses.
04:58 I cannot see without my glasses.
05:01 These are actually prescribed.
05:02 I don't know my number or whatever it is.
05:04 You ever seen that thing in Scooby-Doo
05:05 where she lose her glasses and she like,
05:07 she like looking for them all over the floor?
05:09 That's really how I am.
05:10 It's the biggest glitch, for real,
05:11 because you use them to see,
05:13 but when you don't have them and you looking for them,
05:15 you can't see, so it's kind of hard to find them.
05:18 But yeah, very essential.
05:21 This is my lighter, but it's not just my regular lighter.
05:28 This is my lighter with my lighter case.
05:30 I got these from none of your business.
05:32 Because if I see one of y'all walking around with these
05:35 and I think it's mine and it's really yours,
05:36 then we gonna have a problem.
05:37 Y'all can look it up.
05:39 Y'all probably won't find it.
05:40 I hope y'all don't.
05:41 Get your own.
05:42 That's one thing, get your own.
05:44 Why you even in a position where you need a lighter
05:47 and you don't have one?
05:48 Why don't you have a lighter?
05:49 Why you leave the house without a lighter?
05:51 Why you link up with me without a lighter?
05:52 You might get this,
05:54 but I'm gonna be watching you the whole time.
05:56 And I'm gonna ask for it back.
05:58 Yo bro, you got that lighter still?
05:59 Yo, let me get that back, bro.
06:01 I'm gonna get it back.
06:02 Now this right here, essential.
06:06 When my lips is dry, I literally go crazy.
06:09 Like I can't talk to no one.
06:11 I can't eat no food.
06:12 I don't wanna hear you talk.
06:14 I just need some of this right here.
06:15 If you don't got this on you,
06:16 I probably don't trust you.
06:18 I always got it on me.
06:18 You can borrow mine.
06:20 Shout out Vaseline, man.
06:21 Y'all holding it down.
06:23 On stage, when I'm on stage,
06:28 I always got water next to me.
06:30 You never know, like,
06:31 you might have to hit that high note,
06:32 that song after,
06:34 you might have like a five second transition.
06:36 You gotta open the bottle real quick, refill.
06:38 But I don't really like care about the whole water stuff,
06:41 the whole water brand, the whole other than that.
06:43 But I actually like essential.
06:45 Essential, if y'all see this,
06:46 y'all rock with me, I rock with y'all.
06:48 For sure, them bottles getting consumed.
06:50 My name is Lil Tecca.
