00:00Hanging out with Thomas Ray and Teddy Swims at the CMA Awards.
00:03What's up fellas, how's it going?
00:04Man, we're just rocking. We're having a good time.
00:06Just rocking out. Tell me, how'd you find this guy?
00:08And why'd you decide to put him on the record?
00:10Dude, ain't nobody else to put on a record. I'm serious.
00:13I've known him for about five years and kind of like instant best buddies, dude.
00:17Like, he's one of the sweetest guys in the world.
00:19One of the most talented human beings I've ever met.
00:21So, I feel very honored to have Teddy on a song with me
00:24and get to host him on his first CMA Award red carpet.
00:27That's amazing. I mean, you brought the look. I see the hat.
00:29Like, you ready for the CMA?
00:31Yeah, I'm so excited, man. I really couldn't be more happy.
00:35How's it going to feel to perform on the stage tonight?
00:37Have you guys done it yet or before?
00:39No, this is actually our first time performing together live.
00:42Yeah, it's going to be sick.
00:44That's exciting. And I've been waiting to talk to you about this.
00:47Lose Control, man, on the Hot 100.
00:49Number five again last week.
00:51The fact that this song never leaves the top ten.
00:53How does it feel, man? I love announcing it every year.
00:55It's a behemoth. I'm so, so, so excited.
00:58We're going to do a little bit of that tonight, man.
01:00And Thomas sings a mess out of that song, too, boy.
01:02I'll tell you, my boy hit that run like a man. It's crazy, dog.
01:06Some prayers right now, all right?
01:08I'll sing that song from my toes.
01:10Okay, man, I can't wait to see it. That's so exciting.
01:12I've been asking everybody about Christmas music tonight.
01:14What's your favorite Christmas song? What gets you in the spirit?
01:16Ooh.
01:18Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
01:21Did you get that vibrato in there?
01:23Cross nipping at your nose. That's my favorite jam.
01:25Oh, man, you sound so good. That's a good one.
01:27And I haven't heard that tonight, by the way. Nobody's said that yet.
01:29It's my favorite.
01:31You know, Donny Hathaway, man, all day.
01:33I'm with a soul. Come on, baby.
01:35That's the only way to have Christmas, baby. You've got to have some soul.
01:39Oh, man, I'm so proud of you, man.
01:41I'm so happy to see you guys perform tonight.
01:43I can't wait. Have fun up there on stage.
01:45Thank you so much. Always a pleasure.
