Yeah, I've seen you on our lives on YouTube, man. I appreciate you watching that. [00:00:49] Speaker B: Yeah, I've been. I've been a follower for a good minute now. [00:00:52] Speaker A: That's what's up. Yeah, yeah, I'm digging that. The face tattoos also, man. [00:00:56] Speaker B: Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you. [00:00:57] Speaker A: Several of the guys, several other people that came on here, they had face tattoos as well. It's just the norm around here. [00:01:02] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:01:04] Speaker A: There you go. There you go. That's what's up. Yeah, so what's so paper game Chachi, what's up with the name? How'd you come up on that? [00:01:10] Speaker B: Well, Chachi just. I initially used to go by little CC, and that's Lil Cc. So it was just something that was when I was younger. Yeah, I grew up, so I wanted to keep CC somehow. So that's where Chachi came in because the two C still in there. Chachi, you know, the paper game is a. To be honest, that really came from my cousin. He had a little record label thing going on called Paper Game Enc. So kind of like, shout out to him, but he let me go ahead and use the name and I just kind of ran off with it. Put paper game from Chachi and it is what it is now. [00:01:41] Speaker A: Right on. Yeah, that's cool, man. That's cool. So I came upon you on Instagram or TikTok, a video about you turning down an album or a record label or something like that. What's the deal with that? [00:01:54] Speaker B: Yeah, man. [00:01:56] Speaker A: I was like, holy, man, that must be pretty. [00:01:58] Speaker B: Shout out. Shout out to them, man. It was a christian label that they were trying to open new doors for, like, a better. Like, they wanted to expand their label and do things. They wanted to get into rap scene, the music scene a little bit and, like, on that type of genre. And I kind of, like, I was interested, but they liked the styles of music I was doing, like, the pain and all that. They really digged it. And I was just thinking to myself, like, yo, like, it's a good opportunity, but I like to be different places in music. Like, I do rap like that. Talk stuff about this that I cannot spit one on one topic. Just stick on one topic. This is how I feel. I'm gonna write about it, and I'm gonna make a song about it. So I just felt like I wasn't really the perfect fit for it. [00:02:40] Speaker A: Wow. [00:02:41] Speaker B: So I just decided, like, if I turn it down, there's always gonna be a better opportunity some more. And I really feel like that's what's gonna happen soon. [00:02:47] Speaker A: Wow. That's awesome. So, shortly after watching that video, I started researching, and I found you on YouTube. And then I was listening to, like, the first couple videos, and then I listened to the song about your. Your late mother, right? Yeah, that was real. That I was like, man, that's. That's heart. That's heart right there, man. Yeah. So that must have been. Yeah. How'd you feel about writing that song? [00:03:08] Speaker B: Well, to be honest, just to even talk about my mother's a touchy subject, you know? [00:03:12] Speaker A: Like, yeah. [00:03:13] Speaker B: Shit, when I lost her, I feel like my whole. I lost a lot of people. Like, I just started sticking to myself more, and I just believed the music came out more powerful when she passed, believe it or not. Like, I gained a lot of motivation from that. The song she said is the song you're talking about. Those were actual real conversations, word for word. When my mom got admitted in the hospital, it was January 12. [00:03:34] Speaker A: Oh, wow. [00:03:35] Speaker B: So January 12, she was admitted, and she was supposed to go for a little procedure. She was already battling lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes. She was very six, and by the time she was 18, and she battled it all the way to six. Yeah. And she was supposed to go in for a little procedure, so when she went in for a little procedure, she just really never made it back out. [00:03:55] Speaker A: Oh, my God. [00:03:56] Speaker B: Um, January 14, I was actually a recording over there at, uh, monsie's, uh, people. And I had met ot over there, too. That mexican ot shout out to him. I met him over there, and, you know, we talked about a few things that I was going through, because he saw that I was going through stuff, and I told him, my mom, and she's real sick right now, she's admitted. So I went to go see my mom the next day from that, from recording, and she basically had all these conversations with me, like, don't ever let my head down. Like, doctors say, like, I might not make it this round, you know, like, just keep pushing in life. Like, remember, I'm always around. And just, like, things like that lingered with me for a whole year. [00:04:37] Speaker A: Wow. [00:04:37] Speaker B: Just every conversation she had when you just lingered with me for a whole year, and I was always questioning, God, like, why you keep, like, allowing these thoughts of me and my mom's conversations, and the last thing she had, like, keep affecting me, eating me mentally, you know? [00:04:49] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:04:50] Speaker B: Like. Cause I know I didn't want to forget my mom, but I wanted to move on from it. [00:04:54] Speaker A: Wow. [00:04:55] Speaker B: So I felt that the more I heard about it in my head, it just messed with me. So I ended up creating just one time, just sitting down. I said, yo, I can't take you no more. You know what I mean? Just pick the bead. And then I just came up with that song. [00:05:08] Speaker A: It's gotta come out. [00:05:09] Speaker B: It had to came out. It had to come out. And I realized now, like, that's what it was. Like, it stuck with me because it needed to be created to a song, like, you know? So now I look back at it, it's more easier to hear it and realize what she was saying. [00:05:20] Speaker A: Wow, crazy. [00:05:21] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It's very powerful in that song. [00:05:23] Speaker A: That's awesome, man. [00:05:24] Speaker B: We got last conversation. [00:05:25] Speaker A: Yeah, we got some people in here already shouting, shouting out and saying, hi. [00:05:30] Speaker B: Oh, hey, how's it going, guys? [00:05:32] Speaker A: Yeah, please. The block Gonzalez king, Arturo, Jonathan. Appreciate you guys for joining. Francesca, thank you for joining. Mama. Love you. My daughter there. Yeah, no, man. No doubt. You got to get that out and just, man, that's tough. And she was 64 years old. And those. Those things you're mentioning, too. A lot of our society, our culture has those. Those diseases. You know what I mean? [00:05:55] Speaker B: Yeah. My cousin, she was 34. She died of lupus. That's basically one of the diseases my mom was patterning as well. Yeah. So it's a, you know, you lose weight. [00:06:04] Speaker A: Like, she lost a lot of weight and all that stuff. [00:06:06] Speaker B: Yeah, she had rheumatoid arthritis, too, so her. Her bones were very brittle, like she couldn't grab a regular drink like this, like, she had to grab, like, yeah, seeing all that, you know, really takes a toll on you. [00:06:20] Speaker A: So. So was that one. So was that one of the reasons why you got back? Cuz you. Because we mentioned we're talking on text, on Instagram. [00:06:27] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:27] Speaker A: That you felt you got out of it and then you came back to it. [00:06:30] Speaker B: Yeah. Okay. So I started off really, my brother and his friends, you know, they used to have a FSR foolish squad of records, like a little thing going on back in the day. They were. They were doing their own thing and stuff. My brother used to do music, whatever. And, uh, it was eight years old. I was eight years old. I was always a younger sibling. He's an older brother. I always wanted to be around my older brother, you know, he dirt or cooler ones, you know, so I just want to be around my brother. And. Yeah, so one night he was just there listening to some bee, and I guess he couldn't really finish or come up with something. And he's like, man, let's see if you could. You could catch it. Oh, and for me, being eight years old, like, just messing around, like, I said what I said, I don't really remember what I said, but I remember, like, him calling everybody buddy of his friends. [00:07:14] Speaker A: Oh, wow. [00:07:15] Speaker B: And just saying, like, hey, spit this again. And then we'll. At that time, it was a house phone. So, you know, the ones that, with the long cords used to have me, like, holding the phone for me with the beat playing in the back and him just. Me just spitting it. And then he'll be like, all right. Then she go. And then they'll be like, whatever they say about it, like, oh, that's cool. Like, well, she's eight. And then we'll hang up. Then he'll have me call, like, all these other people and do the same thing. And it was just like, yeah, so ever since then, I was just like, dang, like, you know. And then it took off from. From being eight years old to being able to do that. It really took off. By the time I was 1213, I was doing local shows, car shows, going to San Antonio with baby boys, you know, shout out to him. He goes by drippy drew now. I was doing shows with them. They were take Andy shot. R man. Rp Andy man. He really, you know, helped me push myself out there, take me to San Antonio and stuff. And I started doing shows out there, and I started getting older. Teenagers, you know, we're all in the funk when we're teenagers. I started choosing the wrong paths, to be honest. Girls really messed my mind up sometimes, and I stuck with them. And instead of perfecting my craft going, I just started, like, you know, going one way when I was supposed to be going that way. It's like, I seen that way, but this way look better at the moment. [00:08:29] Speaker A: Oh, shit. Yeah. [00:08:29] Speaker B: So I just really kind of stopped. And then as I got older, you know, life really gets you. And I was battling, to be honest, just to be real. I battle sometimes from depression, the urge of other things, you know? And, like, the word, I really. I'm a strong, firm believer, like, where words fail, music speaks. [00:08:46] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:08:47] Speaker B: And I started just writing it down. I remember my mom used to tell me, like, just write it down, write it down, write it down. And, yeah, I started getting bored of just writing it down, so I started making everything rhyme. [00:08:55] Speaker A: Oh, wow. [00:08:56] Speaker B: And then, yeah, man, I just started coming back up this time with pain music. [00:09:00] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, pain. [00:09:01] Speaker B: You know what I mean? Like, everything that was real, that I'm going through, I just started really just putting it down, you know? [00:09:05] Speaker A: You can tell. You can tell. When I was. And I was listening to another track. I can't remember. It had this one line from the animals song. I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. [00:09:16] Speaker B: It's the jungle song. [00:09:17] Speaker A: Yeah, that one. Yeah, that was. I was listening to that ones, like, damn, this is, like. Like, you know what I mean? It's not just messing up, just putting words together. It's something that's actually happening. Heartfelt. Yeah. [00:09:28] Speaker B: Every one of my songs right now, bro, is, like, literally something that's going on in my life. [00:09:32] Speaker A: Wow. [00:09:32] Speaker B: I don't. Right now, it's. Every song is facts. [00:09:34] Speaker A: Like. [00:09:34] Speaker B: Like, I tell a lot of people, like, I can't give you a song to get high to or get drunk to or, like, go dance to. Because I'm not in my mind space. I'm not there yet, but in my mind space, I'm talking about what I'm going through. That's why I'm venting. Basically. It's my coping mechanism to, like, be able to cope with what I go through right now. [00:09:52] Speaker A: Yeah. And then, like, I think when people listen to it, they definitely relate to it because they're probably going through it as well. [00:09:58] Speaker B: Yeah, man. I had numerous messages from just random people telling me, like, hey, I feel that, like, I lost. I made a song called 163. I went to Martin middle school, and I. We lost a lot of people since then. We lost a lot of people and made a song about everybody, basically all our friends that we lost. It's called 163. [00:10:16] Speaker A: Awesome. [00:10:16] Speaker B: And I had a lot of people just message and be like, hey, that's my cousin, or that's my nephew that you talked about. Like, we appreciate it. And just had other people just say like, yeah, man, like, I really, like, get influenced by your music, you know, and just telling me I'm not alone, you know? And it's real good support and it's good feedback, and it makes me feel, like, humble and blessed to know that it's reaching to others, you know? Really never really wanted it to be like that. Like, I would just post my music and let it be for what it was. It's my coping thing, you know? But if it could help others by any means, like, I support it. I'm happy for that. [00:10:47] Speaker A: Yeah, definitely. That's cool. Yeah. We were talking about mental health on the last podcast. I think you were chiming in there, but, yeah, that's. I think that's something that's important to our community, you know? Yeah. Like, and I've struggled with it, you know what I mean? I'm Add ADHD, so I can see how somebody like myself can be, like, depressed, you know what I mean? [00:11:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:11:06] Speaker A: Because society, I don't know, it's just not the way it is. It's just not for us. It's weird. It's just not for us. [00:11:16] Speaker B: That's how I feel. I feel like I'm living in this world, living in my own world. Does that make sense? That's the way I really feel in my life. But I make every day the best of it. We only got one life to live like, one you. So that's where the clothing line that I'm coming out with is called. Lbu. [00:11:31] Speaker A: Cool. [00:11:31] Speaker B: It's called live the things called live beyond you. [00:11:34] Speaker A: Nice. [00:11:35] Speaker B: Meaning, like, what you do now. Make sure you make a legacy out of it. So that way, when you're dead and gone or passed away, the younger generations, everybody else could still remember you some way somehow because you impacted it and you affected them in some type of way where you carry on, you know what I mean? [00:11:50] Speaker A: Like, that's like a legacy. You're leaving a legacy. Wow. So how. When did you start thinking like that? Because not a lot of people think. [00:11:57] Speaker B: Like that, you know, when my mom died. [00:11:59] Speaker A: Oh, damn. [00:12:00] Speaker B: It was like a turning point for a lot of things. Like my. It's like my brain got rewired all over again. Wow. Yeah, it's crazy. [00:12:07] Speaker A: So, like, at that moment, like, when she passed away, did it take like, a few a few weeks, a few months? Or, like, how long did it take until, like, that actually made a change? There's some people out there. [00:12:19] Speaker B: Well, my mom passed. She passed away January 14, two days before my birthday. My birthday was two days later that time when I was just chilling on my birthday. Like, dang, we planned a lot of things. They wasn't able to do it. And then I was just thinking, like, the last conversations, like, the conversation me and my mom had was to make her proud. [00:12:40] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:12:41] Speaker B: So, when my mom passed, I told my brother, like, literally in the hospital when she passed, and I seen they lived with their body there. [00:12:47] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:12:48] Speaker B: And they make sure, like, you know, whatever. And then they put a sheet over her and stuff like that. [00:12:52] Speaker A: Like, it's real. Like, it becomes real. [00:12:55] Speaker B: Like, what am I gonna do now? [00:12:56] Speaker A: Yes. [00:12:56] Speaker B: I don't got my mom now. And. Oh. So I just told my brother, like, yo, it's time to make mom happy. [00:13:02] Speaker A: Oh. [00:13:03] Speaker B: My mom always loved my music, man. She would always tell me every time when I was sad to her. Just wanted to venture. She said, you're good at music. Write it down. Write it down. Talk about it through there. And I don't tell her, like, nah, nah. But now I'm taking reward for it. Like, she knew something. [00:13:18] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:18] Speaker B: And when I came back this time with the pain. [00:13:22] Speaker A: Yeah, it's crazy. [00:13:24] Speaker B: I'm getting a lot of love and support, but it's because a lot of things, these are touchy subjects a lot of rappers and mainstream artists really fail to speak about sometimes. [00:13:32] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:33] Speaker B: Like, we can't all relate through the cars. We can't all relate to the fancy clothes, the chains, like the mansions. Cause some of us don't really have that. [00:13:40] Speaker A: No. [00:13:41] Speaker B: So I just decided to be real and 100 with it. You know what I mean? [00:13:45] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:46] Speaker B: What I go through, I'm pretty sure there's many people go through the same. [00:13:48] Speaker A: Yeah, definitely. It's like you become. You become vulnerable. Vulnerable in putting that stuff out. So it's kind of like, you have to be that way in order to just to put that stuff out, you know? I don't know if that makes any sense. [00:14:02] Speaker B: You can't. You can't tell a person you feel them if you never went through it. [00:14:07] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:14:07] Speaker B: You know, that's. That's basically what you're saying right now. Yeah, it's true. I'm pretty sure that, like I said, there's a lot of people who go through that. [00:14:13] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:14:13] Speaker B: It's just a subject that really, people don't really talk about. I guess they hide it sometimes, but not me, man. I just. [00:14:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:20] Speaker B: Real with it. Just. [00:14:21] Speaker A: Yeah, some people. Some people don't want to open up. You know what I mean? It's hard to open up. And if you open up, your. You leave yourself basically open to get hurt. [00:14:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:14:29] Speaker A: You know what I mean? And it's like, you have to do that to continue to evolve as an artist, you know, as a person. You need to continue doing that, because if you keep. If we keep ourselves closed off constantly, then we're not going to continue to grow. [00:14:44] Speaker B: Yeah. And it's like there's already a fire. So all the emotions and negativity you put upon yourself that you keep in your head, it's just like, throws more fuel to the fire. So I'm just dirty trying to put it out, you know? So decide to speak about it, you know what I mean? [00:14:57] Speaker A: That's what I do. [00:14:58] Speaker B: That's what I do in my music. I speak about it. [00:14:59] Speaker A: That's good. That's good. Appreciate you guys watching. Victoria, Lex, thanks for show these shout outs. Appreciate you guys. [00:15:06] Speaker B: He Nico G. I just seen that right now. [00:15:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Bleep the bleed. [00:15:10] Speaker B: Andy, Nico G. For real, man. [00:15:11] Speaker A: Yeah. Right on. [00:15:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:15:14] Speaker A: So that's awesome, man. So. So what are you up to now? Like, what are you up to now? I know you got your music out on YouTube. I couldn't find you really, on Spotify or anywhere else. I was trying to listen, find on there. Cause I listen. That's where I listen to music. [00:15:28] Speaker B: Yeah. I actually do have a song on Spotify, one of them. It's called Flooded Gates. It's one of the songs that, you know, talks about, like, a lot of sad things, like, you know what I'm saying? About my mom, about a lot of things by relationships and. [00:15:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:41] Speaker B: Just something I was going through at that time, but. Yeah, it's called flooded gates. And it's on there. It's on. It's on. [00:15:46] Speaker A: Okay. [00:15:46] Speaker B: Many of other mainstreams as well. [00:15:48] Speaker A: Okay. [00:15:49] Speaker B: One is under. [00:15:50] Speaker A: What is it, Matt? [00:15:51] Speaker B: It's called flooded gates. [00:15:52] Speaker A: Flooded gates. Okay. [00:15:53] Speaker B: My paper game shot. You have flooded gates. [00:15:55] Speaker A: Yes. What's up? That's cool. [00:15:57] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:15:58] Speaker A: Do you write. Do you write your own music or you just write the literal. [00:16:01] Speaker B: Yeah, I write my own music. [00:16:03] Speaker A: Wow. [00:16:04] Speaker B: Yes, sir. Everything is all me. I write. Everything's on me. I actually have an ep coming out. No features. Oh, me damn hooks and everything. [00:16:14] Speaker A: Yo, that's crazy. [00:16:15] Speaker B: Yes, sir. [00:16:16] Speaker A: That's amazing to me. I'm just. When I think of you guys, cuz I'm not really into the scene or anything like that. Obviously you can probably tell, but like, I just think somebody writes it for you. You go in there and you rhyme on it or whatever. But a lot of you guys are writing your own stuff. [00:16:30] Speaker B: Yeah, right. I've been writing mom and so since the age of eight. [00:16:33] Speaker A: No kidding. [00:16:33] Speaker B: Yeah. Everything's always been me since eight years old. Since the age of eight. [00:16:37] Speaker A: That's hard. Whoa. That's hard. [00:16:38] Speaker B: You should get in trouble in school. I listened. I had. I struggled with ADHD. [00:16:43] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:16:44] Speaker B: I was telling you when I was little. So I like, I move around and stuff like that. But when I was younger, man, I used to get in trouble all the time. The teacher would always tell my mom like, hey, she's not really learning. We're gonna have to put her in this special class. Cause she's not getting what we're teaching her. But little did they know I'm writing about what they're teaching me. But I make it into poem form or a rap form, and I'm just like, if I. I didn't understand how to come up with this. It's basically what they spoke about. [00:17:08] Speaker A: Oh, damn. [00:17:09] Speaker B: It's crazy. Yeah, I know. But I just listened to my own way, you know, I took everything out of it and just made it my own way. [00:17:14] Speaker A: They told my mom, my stepmom. Cause she's the one that kind of raised me with my dad. Excuse me. They told her, oh, he's not gonna be able to go to college. [00:17:22] Speaker B: What? [00:17:23] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, man. Went to college. I got a degree in music. Bachelor's. A bachelor's, bachelor's from a and m. Shout out islanders. Yeah, but man, we can do. We can do it. Like, it's just. I'm telling you, society, the school system, they just make it seem like you can't do it because you don't exactly like what you're saying. They. You don't fit into their how. How they want you to do it, what they expect. Exactly. Exactly. You're your own genre, and you don't fit in their category. Appreciate you guys for commenting, that's all. So. So you got that. That out. Do you do shows? Have you done any shows lately? What's going on there? Since? [00:18:01] Speaker B: I just been taking serious music seriously for a. About a year now already. Um, my. I haven't done a show, but I will be. May 15, will be at the bridge nightclub.

You're out there. Yeah, yeah. That's all. That's awesome. So. So you got so shows. It's just kind of. It seems like you're just kind of laying low right now, making music, writing. [00:19:29] Speaker B: Laying low, just putting as much content out, as much as I can. Shout out to Moog, though. Moog's my producer, Johnny Moog. Shout out to Johnny Moog. He's a very. He's been doing my music since I was eight years old. I started recording professor, like, with a producer, like, instead of, you know, our own house, you know. So Johnny Moog was the first one producer who, at Leno has a name out here who recorded me at 14. [00:19:55] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:19:56] Speaker B: I'm already older now. He's still recording me.

[00:20:03] Speaker A: So you write the music, you write the lyrics, you take it to him. He records it, puts it on, puts it all together. Okay. Okay. [00:20:09] Speaker B: Tell him, like, hey, this is the way I want to sound. And we figure whether we record the whole song when we sit there and listen it together. And I'd be like, nah, let me go back in there. Tap in or change that. Delete that. [00:20:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:19] Speaker B: And he's been very patient with me because I'm very kind of picky on it, but it's because it's me. Like, I wanted the way that I have a vision in my head. I wanted to sound, and I kind of expected to be like that. But he's very understanding and very all for it. That's why. Shout out to move, man. He's a good guy, man. [00:20:35] Speaker A: Shout out to move. It's almost as a producer, like, you can't, like, all genres of music, but it seems like he's in there, like, to where he's doing.

The term, like, female or like, girl like that doesn't. [00:24:23] Speaker B: It does not bother me. [00:24:24] Speaker A: Okay. [00:24:24] Speaker B: Bother me much. I just don't like to be like, label. Like, hey, cuz, I don't want to stay stuck in that category. You know what I mean? [00:24:30] Speaker A: I was gonna say, like, so do you feel like people. Do you feel a certain, like, how does it make you feel being that most of the people are men? I guess you could say, do you in the industry? [00:24:41] Speaker B: In the industry put out when I tell them, I'm hope. Email. [00:24:44] Speaker A: Okay. [00:24:45] Speaker B: Hear my songs, they be like, damn, that dude.

I'm actually starting to get on the crunk stuff, like the dance stuff now, like, stuff that you could actually vibe with instead of trying to lean off the pain so much, trying to give somebody else mother stuff to listen to. So, yeah, I'm gonna start dipping in. You know, I'm starting to do country, too. [00:29:08] Speaker A: Right. [00:29:09] Speaker B: Yeah, I got some stuff on my sleeve with the country still. I'm just really exploring all what I could do. You know what I mean? Just try not to stick to one stuff like, I'm doing everywhere I could be. [00:29:17] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:29:18] Speaker B: Music. I love music. All type of genres. [00:29:20] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:29:20] Speaker B: Like, you know, if there's beat, a rock, if I can do it, I'm gonna do it. [00:29:23] Speaker A: Yeah. That's cool that you see that you need other. Other types of stuff for your. For the audience or. For your audience. [00:29:30] Speaker B: Yeah. In order to gain a bigger audience, you got to step out of your comfort zone, take risks. [00:29:34] Speaker A: Yeah. That's good advice right there. [00:29:36] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:29:36] Speaker A: And it's not only in music, it's in life. It seems like it. Yeah. Yeah. It's almost like you're. Your lifestyle is intertwined with your music, and I kind of see that, you know, just talking. Talking with you about that, which is. It's just a good thing, you know? I think people need to see our lifestyle and how we live it. Appreciate you guys on tick tock. Thanks for. For joining in. Yeah. So, yeah, so you got. So how many songs do you have out? Do you have. Do you do albums, or do you do songs or. How do you do that? [00:30:04] Speaker B: I've never had an album. This is gonna be my first ep. [00:30:07] Speaker A: Okay. [00:30:08] Speaker B: Whole life. [00:30:08] Speaker A: Oh, wow. [00:30:09] Speaker B: Whole life. Yeah. That's why I made sure this ep has no features. Everything's gonna be on me, the hooks, everything. [00:30:16] Speaker A: So you want to make sure that. That. Especially your. [00:30:19] Speaker B: Because it's gonna be my first. Yeah. I had people. I actually. The only feature I've done. [00:30:24] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:30:25] Speaker B: Is a feature with a B da Vinci. [00:30:27] Speaker A: Okay. [00:30:27] Speaker B: That song is called my shit. Shout out to a B da Vinci. We killed that one, man. Shout out to ab DaVinci. Shout out to droopy. Shout out to everybody. Kevin. All them people. Like, they really show me love. [00:30:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:37] Speaker B: I'm actually having talks with a droopy about doing a song, too. We're gonna get back with each other and see, you know, what we come up with. But that should be in them, you know, the verge of making as well. But, yeah, that's the only one I got a feature with was a be. But that song goes hard. It's called my shit. [00:30:52] Speaker A: In this, in this community, do you feel like you have to be, have to feature with somebody in the community? [00:30:57] Speaker B: I feel like. No, I feel like as long as you're real, you're humble, you don't try to be like anybody else, because the. My eyes, nobody is better than nobody else. [00:31:05] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:31:05] Speaker B: We're all in the same boat, in the same motion, just trying to get to the same island. There shouldn't be no competition with anybody. Like, where's we. We should all just show love to everybody. It's all love with me. I'm a big person with a big heart. I come in love. Like, you respect me, I respect you. Show me love. I show you love more. [00:31:22] Speaker A: How do you find yourself, like, so how, why, how do you do that? Or how do you find yourself having that type of attitude toward that? Because some people, they won't, they don't want to do that. [00:31:32] Speaker B: It's on me. It's me. [00:31:34] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:31:35] Speaker B: I was raised nice. Yeah. [00:31:38] Speaker A: Yeah. That's what's up. Yeah, I think how we were, how we were raised. This says a lot about. A lot about us. Yeah. Makes me think about my parents, my dad. [00:31:47] Speaker B: Yeah. They did a great job on me. Shout out to my dad, shout out to my mom, my older brothers, you know, my sisters, my cousins. We're all raised right. You know what I mean? Like, we're all raised good. We're good. We're good people like you always thought to show love. Never think you're better than nobody, cuz nobody is. That's how I feel like it. Nobody is. Yeah, nobody's better than nobody. [00:32:04] Speaker A: Yeah, right on. Yeah, nobody's better. Like, I was reading, I read the Bible, I was reading a verse, uh, proverbs, where it's like, uh, uh, God made the, basically the rich man and he made the poor man. He made both of them. [00:32:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:22] Speaker A: So, yeah, he gives light to the eyes of both. [00:32:25] Speaker B: Mm hmm. [00:32:25] Speaker A: So one is not better than the other, whether, no matter your economic status. [00:32:30] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, right. [00:32:31] Speaker A: You know I'm saying? [00:32:32] Speaker B: That's right. [00:32:33] Speaker A: Like, you can make so much money, make so little money in the eyes of God, you're still, he still gave light to that. Your eyes, whether you have a lot of money or you don't. [00:32:41] Speaker B: Yeah. There was some guy, man, that said, yeah, that's. That's very true. There's some guy that said that, uh, he had told me, he's like, even though that person may have more than you, you still rich because you still have what they have. Like, you got family, you got love, you know, the mean. And love was a long way, and I started to realize that, like, yeah, you're not better than me. Like, the people would be like, oh, this, that I got this. Like, that's cool. That's material things, and you cannot take it with you. And what I'm gonna take with me is a whole lot of love. I want to leave a legacy. [00:33:07] Speaker A: I'm saying. [00:33:08] Speaker B: That's why I kind of, like, really doing this music for good now. [00:33:11] Speaker A: Like, yeah. [00:33:11] Speaker B: And do something with it. [00:33:12] Speaker A: Yeah. So do you know. So along the lines of that, do you know where, like, do you, are you trying. Do you consider, like, trying to make it, or how do you. How do you, like, what, which steps are you. Okay. Okay, so that's how you see it. [00:33:28] Speaker B: Laws of attraction. I'm gonna manifest it, and I'm firm believer of that. [00:33:31] Speaker A: Okay, so do you. Do you plan it like, do you plan it out? Like, okay, this I needed. Oh, yeah, okay. [00:33:36] Speaker B: I plan it out, definitely. I planned out being consistently with my music and everything. I really spoke about. I spoke about doing music before my mom passed. Like, hey, I want to get back into this. Like, what's a certain somebody, you know? I didn't know it, too. I spoke about it, like, I'm gonna get back on this watch. I'm gonna get back on this. Like, I'm gonna be on the radio, gonna be doing this. That, that how you say to, I'm beyond interviews or podcasts. And they're like, man, whatever, you stop. You said, you stop me. And then, nah, a year later came, my mom passed. I really just stuck to what I said. And it's crazy. I'm on a podcast now. Yeah, I have a song. Wait up. That was on the radio. Shout out to Bobby stump. Shout out to Trey. Yeah, it offer me, like, it's crazy. Like, it's. Everything I spoke about is really coming true because I'm a firm believer of faith as long when you got faith, and, like, matthias told me, she said you could do anything you want to do as long as you believe, you know, you could do anything through Jesus Christ who strengthens you. And I'm strong believer of the Bible, too. My dad's a pastor. [00:34:37] Speaker A: Oh, wow. [00:34:38] Speaker B: Yeah. So they all. I always had their religion and all that, and music's always been a part of my life. My dad used to be a drummer for the church band. Right now he's a pastor, and. Yeah. So it just kind of all. Just really just all play. My whole life just played out into, like, still playing out. Like, I don't know, I'm gonna be doing in a year from now on. [00:34:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:34:54] Speaker B: But I know it's gonna be doing some great. [00:34:56] Speaker A: Yeah. I used to be a part of the church community here in corpus. I really not. Not a part of it anymore. It. I just see a lot of hypocrisy, you know what I mean? And stuff like that. [00:35:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:06] Speaker A: Do you. Do you deal with that? Like, how do you think about that? Cuz I know you're. You said your. Your dad's a pastor, and I used to be a drummer and all that stuff, so you know what? It's like that. That culture, you know, I'm saying the ways and. [00:35:18] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:35:18] Speaker A: There. And for me, like, I tried it out, you know, I mean, I still believe in God and all that stuff, but it's just like that, that. It just ain't for me. I tried several churches, you know what I mean? [00:35:28] Speaker B: But it's just, I don't go to church either. I don't go to church either. And I don't believe you really got to go to church to believe in God like you believe from your heart, you know, I mean, like, as long as you have him, talks with them, pray to him every morning, every night. [00:35:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:40] Speaker B: Before you do what you do, like before here, I prayed. As long as you got that relationship with God, like, he ain't gonna forget about you. [00:35:46] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. You don't have to. And it's like, you don't have to have. You don't have to be affiliated with a church to know that you have a relationship with God. That. That's just how my look on it, you know what I'm saying? [00:35:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:59] Speaker A: Because people will. Will let each other down as people, you know what I'm saying? And. And a lot of. And these churches are built on people, you know? [00:36:06] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, sure. [00:36:08] Speaker A: You know, I mean, that there. Some of them are trying to fill seats, maybe because they got a church loan or whatever, you know. I mean, you never know the motive behind all that stuff, but it's there. [00:36:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:36:18] Speaker A: I mean, it's there. A lot of people don't talk about it. Some people, they just kind of just. They go into the church and then they leave, and then they don't talk about it. You know what I mean? But I'm just like, dude, why don't we talk about it? What is all this stuff going on here? Lexi G. What artists and corpus. Would you want to collab with that? You haven't. [00:36:35] Speaker B: Oh, man, really? I can't really, just to be honest, I can't pick just one. We have a lot of great artists here, man. This blows my mind, like, crazy. Like, we probably should be, like, the next houston. [00:36:49] Speaker A: Yeah, no kidding. [00:36:49] Speaker B: That's how I feel. Like, you know, as long as we all show love to each other, not be competitive with one another, like, we could all make something of this city and be more pop in the wood, and it already is. It deserves more recognition. Like, we're all great artists here, man. We're all great in our own ways. Even if you don't rap, you do something, the job. We all great in our own ways. That's what I feel. [00:37:07] Speaker A: Do you think that, like, so talking about that, like, speaking of, like, the genre of music that these artists are in, do you think that it gets a bad rap from, say, higher ups in the city or just altogether, like, do you think about that? Like, how does that. [00:37:22] Speaker B: How do I do I. That's why I try to stay away from that topics and stuff. Try to be commercial with it, and that's what. That's why kind of way, like, just be commercial with the music. Don't stay away from subjects like that. Like, not saying, like, I'm against it. Like, you know, I'm saying I'm not really against it, but in my music, I don't want to speak like that. So I just try to, like, just keep it, you know, commercialized in a way. [00:37:45] Speaker A: Some people might be like, oh, well, that's, you know, you're not being true to yourself or whatever. Whatever. How do you. How do you respond to people like that? [00:37:52] Speaker B: I have never sold any type of drugs or anything like that. I've never been like that, so it's. It wouldn't be fake with myself. [00:37:58] Speaker A: Mm. [00:37:59] Speaker B: Yeah. So everybody knows who I am. Like, you know, a lot of people know me. Like, I come with love. I'm humble, and that's probably the reason why I get a lot of love. [00:38:06] Speaker A: Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It speaks worlds. Like, and it goes a long way, too, that's for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Appreciate you. Jay Bustos twisted podcast on TikTok.

[00:39:44] Speaker A: I was listening to the riding high podcast shout out to those guys, and they were talking about, how is freestyle, like, actually coming up with it right then and there? Or is it. You already have rhymes in your head? [00:39:56] Speaker B: I would say you come up with their right, and we're right then. Because if it's written, it's not a freestyle. It's something that's already read, you know? [00:40:04] Speaker A: Right, right. [00:40:04] Speaker B: That's how I look like it. Drop a beat. [00:40:09] Speaker A: Save.

[00:40:23] Speaker B: That's very nice of them. [00:40:24] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:40:26] Speaker B: You said a freak, right? [00:40:27] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:40:28] Speaker B: You freak, man. [00:40:29] Speaker A: Freak or the bleeds. The block. I'm not sure what that is. The bleach. The block bleeders. [00:40:34] Speaker B: Shout out to thea. That's the one. I told you that. She told me I could do anything I put my mind to and that I could, you know, do anything through Jesus Christ, who strengthens me. She's the one who told me, like, man, like, you're gonna. You're gonna go far. Like, I'll come to her. I suffer from depression. I ain't gonna lie. Like, that's right. I'm not afraid or ashamed to say things like that. You know, my mind could travel a lot sometimes, and thoughts and negative things that just take me deeper than what it really is. [00:40:59] Speaker A: Right. [00:41:00] Speaker B: So, uh. [00:41:00] Speaker A: Yeah, man, like, overthink. Overthink. [00:41:02] Speaker B: I'm overthinker. I'm a very overthinker because I'm also overachiever. [00:41:06] Speaker A: Mmm. [00:41:06] Speaker B: Like, I just, like. Yeah. So, uh, she would tell me all the time, I'll cry to her and stuff, and she'll be like, hey, uh, you know, you could do anything you put your mind to. You're gonna make it far. You're gonna make it far. You're gonna do something with this music. Start doing it again. Start. [00:41:18] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:41:18] Speaker B: She was right. [00:41:19] Speaker A: Stand doing it again. So you had stopped for a while. Yeah. So you say. Was it a freak there? 14 years and counting. Supporting locals. Yeah. [00:41:30] Speaker B: Dang, man. [00:41:32] Speaker A: Yeah. So you mentioned depression. Like, depression from overthinking. Like, how do you. How do you find yourself? Like, I don't understand it. Like, cuz I think I know what it is, but I don't know when I am. You know what I mean? [00:41:46] Speaker B: When you're depressed? [00:41:47] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:41:48] Speaker B: To me, I like to, like, I become very distant when I'm depressed. Like, I don't really like to be around a lot of people. I stick to myself, and I. I guess I'm very grateful for my depression because when my best music comes from. [00:42:02] Speaker A: Right. [00:42:02] Speaker B: So I guess I got it for something, you know? I just feel like if you got something like that with depression or anything, make the best of it. Yeah, make the best of it. [00:42:09] Speaker A: How do you find yourself? Do you find yourself having trouble communicating with others? Because sometimes, like, I know in depression, we can't. We don't communicate a lot. We just communicate in our head, or in your case, you write it down to be nervous. [00:42:21] Speaker B: I was nervous to come over, to be honest. I was nervous coming over here. [00:42:24] Speaker A: Right. Okay. [00:42:24] Speaker B: You know, but, uh, yeah, it's, uh. I'm not very. I don't really open up to a lot of people. I don't know, but, I mean, like, I feel comfortable here. I really appreciate that for you having me. [00:42:33] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, that's awesome. [00:42:34] Speaker B: Like a real genuine person.

Like, I was noticing that that's what they were saying, like, you got to genuinely be interested and care. You know what I mean? [00:42:51] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:42:52] Speaker A: Actually, Joe Rogan's the one that said that in one of his interviews, they were interviewing him. Like, how do you. How do you podcast, or how do you interview or whatever. And that was one of the things he was saying, like, just got to be genuinely interested in the person. [00:43:03] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:04] Speaker A: What they're talking about. [00:43:05] Speaker B: I could tell, though, you. You are. You are a genuine person. [00:43:08] Speaker A: Thank you. [00:43:08] Speaker B: And I really appreciate what you do, man.

Yeah. I'm always love on my end. It's love on my end all the time. [00:43:22] Speaker A: Yeah. That's what's up. That's awesome. How do you find yourself? So you got your music out there. You have your pages, your TikTok, and your Instagram and stuff. How do you find yourself? Like, marketing yourself, to be honest, I. [00:43:34] Speaker B: Really just run my Facebook. I tune in time to time from the Instagram TikTok and all that, but it's actually being ran by my manager. [00:43:41] Speaker A: Oh, no kidding. [00:43:42] Speaker B: Yeah. So, yeah, just here earlier, you're texting him. Okay. Yeah, but I was right. I was messaging. I texted time to time, but it was my. Yeah, okay. [00:43:55] Speaker A: Yeah.

He's been my manager since I was young. [00:44:11] Speaker A: Looking out for you, man. [00:44:13] Speaker B: A long time ago, man.

So anyway, he was saying, like, you know, have an outlet, and music is a tremendous outlet. I'm a musician myself, so I understand, you know, even in high school, middle school, when I would get home, I just want to play my guitar because, you know, it's tough out there for us. For us.

So you're not gonna start, like, that's your. That's your goal? Yeah, that's good. Damn. I was talking to droopy also, and he was saying, too, he's like, basically, you gotta sacrifice. Some people don't want to sacrifice. He was saying. I was like, well, how do you know? He was like, some people don't want to sacrifice. And I was like, what does that mean? So I just like, you talking about that now. It's like, damn, there ain't no other option. [00:51:32] Speaker B: This is what I'm good at. This is what I'm gonna continue to be good at, and I'm just not gonna stop. So I guarantee myself. I guarantee you, like, I'm like. I'm a big believer of laws of attraction and manifestation. That's what I believe. Like, I think it, you know, I can see it. A vision. It could do it. [00:51:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:51:49] Speaker B: I envision myself in a lot and a couple years when I envisioned myself being somewhere. Very good. [00:51:54] Speaker A: That's awesome. Yeah, man, I was.
