00:17What do you think?
00:18Is that a fair assessment?
00:20Um, I work hard for it.
00:22Y'all feel like it's a lot of up and coming rappers out here that's dope.
00:25But I'm definitely one of the front runners for sure.
00:28Definitely.
00:29Me just having substance.
00:30I think it's my story.
00:31People being able to relate to my struggle.
00:33So, Tyler the Creator just called himself number two behind Kendrick Lamar.
00:39And people are saying he's one of the best.
00:42I seen that.
00:43And his album going crazy right now on the charts too.
00:45I seen that.
00:46That's dope.
00:47Shout out Tyler for sure.
00:48Have a good one.
00:49If he's saying he's number two, do you think you're better than Kendrick Lamar?
00:57Do I think I'm better than Kendrick Lamar?
00:58Number one over Kendrick.
00:59Man.
01:00I think it's different lanes.
01:01Honestly.
01:02Like, you know, I think what we represent is kind of different.
01:05Similar but still different.
01:06You know?
01:07I feel like I'm up there though.
01:08You know?
01:09I like, I mess with Kendrick Lamar.
01:11Kendrick dope.
01:12But you'd put yourself above him.
01:13Would I put myself above Kendrick?
01:15Nah, I wouldn't do that.
01:16Nah.
01:17I wouldn't even do that.
01:18I just started.
01:19Kendrick been going for some years.
01:20He used to rap with my uncle and them back in the day.
01:22So yeah, I wouldn't do that.
01:23I wouldn't do that.
01:24What do you, where would you, would you put yourself above Tyler or where would you put
01:28yourself?
01:29Man, honestly, I feel like I'm number one in my own mind.
01:32But when it comes to like, I like to do, I like to show respect to like to Tyler and
01:36Kendrick Lamar.
01:37I like to give respect where it's due because they kind of paved the way and been doing
01:40this longer than me as well as Nipsey Hussle.
01:42You know?
01:43So yeah, I'll put myself three right after Kendrick, right after Kendrick and Tyler.
01:47I'm right there.
01:48And above Nipsey though?
01:50Nah.
01:51Oh, nah, nah, nah.
01:52Nipsey number one.
01:53We talking.
01:54Oh, right.
01:55Me, Nipsey number one.
01:56I'll go Nipsey, Kendrick, Tyler, me.
01:57Four.
01:58For sure.
01:59Okay.
02:00If we're talking on an independent scale, independent rapper, I'm number one.
02:05Okay, okay.
02:06Now you know.
02:07Okay.
02:08Everyone gave Kendrick credit for uniting LA hoods, but you and Baby Stone Gorillaz did
02:15that with your album?
02:16Yeah.
02:17Yeah.
02:18We've been doing that for a few years now.
02:19Shout out Baby Stone Gorillaz.
02:20How did that come about?
02:21Me just, honestly, I heard some of their songs and when I seen it, I'm like, man, it's raw.
02:27This LA, this real raw song.
02:29I'm like, this dope.
02:30If I can put something together with them and, you know, and just giving them advice
02:34on, you know, they're a little younger than me.
02:35So I was like, let me get them some advice on, you know, the moving in the industry a
02:40little bit.
02:41Okay.
02:42I like that.
02:43What do you have going on right now?
02:44I got an album dropping November 15th.
02:47It's called 1937 South Cornish Street.

02:55Love it.
02:56Let me ask you real quick.
02:57Are you looking towards making the XXL Freshman?
03:02Yeah, that'd be dope.
03:03That'd be dope.
03:04I kind of, it's crazy because I feel like I don't really trip off the accolades and
03:08things like that because I grew up rough.
03:10So me, I feel like I already made it.
03:12I'm buying $50,000 watches and getting my teeth done.
03:14Yeah.
03:15I already made it in life.
03:16Honestly, I'm not dead or I'm not in jail.
03:18So yeah, but that'd be dope.
03:19If I can get XXL, I'd love to be on XXL and all the platforms.
03:23That'd be dope for sure.
03:24I mean, they don't put a lot of LA artists on.
03:26You've been seeing that?
03:27I've been seeing that.
03:28Yeah.
03:293 One No Baby definitely deserved to be on there.
03:30Uh-huh.
03:31And I didn't understand why he wasn't.
03:32Yeah.
03:33Yeah, it's like they'd be kind of like, they'd be like, you know, giving us the cold shoulder
03:36a little bit, but we're going to keep working though.
03:38They're going to see it.
03:39They're going to hear about us.
03:40We're going hard right now.
