music

and you're like, this is Pharrell, yeah, it was you get it like when you first came in, that moment when you first walk in, you know, snap, yeah, especially, you never know, I just got here, no I know nobody. Yeah, yeah, so when I finally look at him, I say, oh yeah, fire like this mouth, well, remember, I saw how I designed my Giri from his jury as a woman, duh, he was there, he's talking about normal things, it wasn't just Yes, we did so much, that's what. What I'm saying is that we did a lot of things.

We didn't just do things. We didn't just do stuff on the album. Keep it up for me, but you're good like men, like artists. Many artists speak very well. from you, of course, man, of course, I mean, you know, I know you're good friends with Chloe, yeah, thug, yeah, future, these, well, you know, Pharrell, he took you on tour over the weekend, I mean these cosines, man, I mean, you know you have obviously, when it comes to artists, and believe me, not all artists are nice. I think the artists that you know, obviously, they really respond to you, you know them, yeah, who talked about young people for a second because I feel like you guys came out the same way. time and it's been lovely to see them both at work um, you know, it's like my brother actually took me under his wing, like I was like, you know, building my money, he taught me, like, he taught me, Like you know how to do it. stay humble, he really likes a good person like him.

I look at him, he showed me how he should take care of his family. He really he showed me how he opposed the move as a man, things like that and I'm just not going to be showbiz, Bush, well, that's it. the things that really made me write with people like I said I don't like you you could be the best you're going to be the best that doesn't mean I'm going to be the first of all you're already a man and it's like what do I need I don't need to know anything else man Ya I know everything about a man because I'm a man I want to learn about women so it's like you're already true to yourself it's no, it's not like this is his room, Israel, for you to come and be cool.

I love a saying. Me everyone you name still you know happy no Cardi asked my little brother yeah so in some ways he must feel like you're doing that for him descendant cool which is crazy yeah just a couple of years for you and now it's already moving that fast, yeah, like Cardiguez, yeah, I love that car. By day, as if it were time to appear as at night. You know, it's time to appear as you here. for a reason, yeah, don't think that me and you are present and I have you with me for no reason, it's time for you to show up, right, you're not going to be here anymore, you have to go, so yeah. not keep it sensible things like that just something look what I do it's just with the germs that fall on me I just dropped it on someone oh yeah yeah I take it and walk why would I keep a wild character.

I do not do it. Don't talk, yeah, and turn it to stone, yeah, I gotta hurry up and keep moving. Yeah, who else gives you those songs? Who else are you looking for? I mean, we talk by raava. In fact, you're the one you're looking to thank the most. For that kind of guidance, I think it's cool that you look that way, especially considering how fast you could, right? I have to know it was crazy, Abel and I became able, we work, we can work anyway, like we can work in, we work and mansions and I work in suites work in scenes work anywhere, I mean cards like if too We would do it, but like he could, like he just owned the lifestyle that he just showed me, like just the way he moved things, that's what I like.

It's with a lifestyle that he's not, I'm not trying, he keeps a shift close to not trying, you know, you just don't want to do it and that's just how I am, um, my mind tries, I got it. , I do not do it. I know I'm not asking for anything like he's not trying to hear the same thing, well he's not trying, it's just real. Who are some of the producers you work with on the album? I didn't work with Holmes. young guy from Philly named Molly rock Do you live in Lemon? You live in Philadelphia but you live in Philadelphia, so you live in Philadelphia.

See how much Hungarian twist here? A lot of weight is so close mm-hmm, this has become kind of the

music

capital of the world, man right now like Atlanta, the whole guy is coming out of the madness Anna, what are your impressions of working here ? I know you came here because of the relationship with those guys, but what have you learned? What do you like here? You could focus here, you know, at home, I really like it and the focus goes home, but out here, I don't really like it, yeah, achoo, what did you base it on?

What does your mom think about all this? It's time for her to believe in there no, she gets it, yeah, it was hard at first because you were saying it, you weren't really applying yourself fully to anything, no, she just likes to imagine that she doesn't know any rappers like that , you had to become a rapper like a shame, believe it mmm, how many chains do you have now Oh no, it's like 30 and you have Manson's, yeah, you know he's coming out with new music, you know, no, I didn't know, yeah , and why do you know how?

Clarifying deeply is a smart thing. What do you like about medicine? I hate it. It's annoying. You should just watch the video on FaceTime right now. You should face that video right now. What time is it? Tell me what Tommy, they hope you're asleep, you know how? I know, because it's still daylight here, yeah, it's noon in LA right now, he's not going to answer the phone, hey, he'll call me and did you guys enjoy a song together? That would be crazy. We already know that he never did what he did. you think about his new music, Oh Manson, that's beautiful, yeah, yeah, he's back on Tom, man, that's so beautiful, but you know they don't talk about music, no, what are you guys talking about, we're just like excited , but you know, it appeared in a professional without a guide what I don't know how you doing man like two years we'll be talking about three hours really three hours and 18 months or mixtapes what's the difference between a mixtape in an album these days of all Anyway, can you even answer that?

I don't even know the same thing, it's the same thing, so I'm encou

rage

d that you put a collection of songs together in a row because the way a lot of people release music is like having a song. here you have a song there, but if it's not one of you, it won't be like that, it's about you know, I'm not full of songs, I try to make it like one big song, right? I write so that your requests are really important to you. How often do you like it? How long does that take you? I always think this must be the most fun part when you have all these songs, you can choose which one comes out in 30 minutes, yeah, but you have to because I know the people. bonus all that took me a month pillar right there it's not that hard I'm doing it alone doing it alone so it's not that hard once I know, I don't like anyone getting in my way.

It's not like a canyon, I'm getting in my way, everything I don't go in, I can and I hope, so when you do it alone, you get it quickly, you're done, you want to follow something, you want, you want to come. with me fast music after love is reg - you only saw 2700 songs sure 2700 kids saw what I was going to do you want to put like this song that I bought when I grew up and I won't put it here anymore because I'm I'm going to come out with a rock Are you out? Yes cool.

You have a band? You have a band? They are girls. Have you started recording things? I thought it's okay. I just come in here. Just do it. Yes. Toki, you are here. Yes. What about the band? Are they writing things well? Ladies you will do it, no it's nothing serious just go see, oh then you'll make a rock record like you've been doing with your rat records just get in there and do it from the top yeah beautiful. that's interesting we'll wait and see it might be okay maybe it's like one of these if it's terrible right if it's absolutely terrible we store it we release it oh no it's kind of hard for it to be bad because I don't . even look at my songs like they're good kinda okay no one in my kids yeah so when I play them it's someone except so rockin' and that's gonna be crazy you can film it yeah so that's it start your voice . recording these songs and maybe enough people accept them, you know, for it to go triple platinum, so what's important to you?

So who is he? What really matters? no one asks me for a photo okay look dad good luck you know how hard we like to make those bets good lives you have to go like the moldy one but that's not it I don't know what I just don't want to call it I don't know normal things I just relax and Gillian came out I mean, you have to be able to like I don't know, it's naive for me to think that you can work to control this to some extent because Yes, you're in the eye of the storm right now, but artists can live or just imagine having been in the eye from the storm with a different piece of equipment that you brought from a store that says this will save your eye. of the storm, but as a team that imagines a bicycle, you saw other people who were already in the heart of the storm and you know it and you took that team and added your complements to it, yes, I am in the middle of the storm, but I am dry , I think it's exciting, man, I think when I hate your music, I think now it sounds like to me it feels really exciting and your melodies, that's one of the things I want to talk about real quick, is your melodies because I don't I don't think you get enough credit for your actual melodies, like I think a lot of people talk about your floor or your performances, your style, whatever, then two layers to songwriting, who are some of your key influences and melodies like who are the people you consider singers, especially, let's make a rock record, hayley williams, she's great, she's great, she can fight, you sang the best, yeah, it's hard to top that, like she's the best, like my gym, make my generation bronze, nobody, nobody, brother, it's nobody. yeah, there you go, Haley, an experiment, she's nobody, she could, she's amazing, have you met her?

V, no, it would be a great collaboration, so the album, so two breakup albums, just to break up, yeah, that sucks, I mean, it's said before every because you know and a lot of time to think about it, but You know, no, that's great, okay, man, it's really nice for you to live here. What do you have in mind right now? What do you have in mind at this very second? I'm trying to catch this fire. It was no swallow reflection I'm not thinking right now it's nothing it's nothing I really think about when it's time to think it's nothing to think about everything right now it's about not trying hard I'm in the mold right now just do it just make it happen whatever happens and I didn't know that everyone would be here today amazed.

It makes me feel like I have something important. They talked to our big boys.
