yeah i'm glad to be here representing that south carolina what's the word would you man glad to be

you know i'm glad to be here glad to sit besides all the real legends of alana respect

respect that respect that tell us how i started for you bro how you how you jump in this music game

and tell us the ups and downs of it thus far my little brother the, the main reason I started rapping, you know that. He stayed in trouble, though. He's in the feds right now. But he was the main reason I started rapping. I was just being a big brother. You feel me, down. Booking the studio sessions for him. He don't show up. Somebody got to record in his motherfucker. That's exactly what it was, though. on my scene where he was rapping about, I just started using the same pattern. We were rapping about the same shit. You feel me? Lifestyle. That's how I really started. You had expectations coming into the game? Because I think, like, sometimes people, man, sometimes their expectations. I ain't going to say it's unrealistic, but people don't really know what they're getting into until you get in this game. Like some people just think it's sweet, it's easy or whatever. They don't see the grind of it. So what was your expectation? I came in focusing on, like I said, I was focusing on getting some money with LeBruh. So I had already came in the mindset of this shit got to be some business some part because I ain't the one doing a rap. So I already looked at it as business before I even jumped in me rapping because I was

already doing the shit for him.

So once I got in the studio and started working, it was just, I was focusing on one thing,

how I'm going to get some money out of this shit.

Straight like that.

What's the struggles of trying to get on like coming out of small time?

Everybody come to your town to get the money, but it's like it'd be hard for us to go out of town to get the money. We do come to Carolina. Like, in South Carolina, I don't see everybody come through this bitch. Anybody, you feel? Thank you. Everybody come to get this back in out of the money. It'd be crazy when, like, when you first start, you got to try to jump in and catch your wave at the time of South Carolina.

Because, like I say, this is the state where all the niggas come.

Everybody come here. Everybody for a show.

Everybody.

So it's hard to get a promoter mindset to, how can I book you when I know I can pay almost the same thing to get somebody from out of town? You feel what I'm saying? How do you think somebody like the baby or whoever, like what you think the formula is? Like you catching on now, you know what I'm saying, the baby and the other people in the Carolinas. you think they did it she's so crazy baby from

north Carolina it's a difference it's a difference but it ain't a different but north

Carolina is more city you feel it is it is more people you got ball teams and all this shit

yeah got whole whole nine yards a professional basketball professional football so it's more

entertainment up there to where in South Carolina we pay for the entertainment. You see, we're going to book your act. We're going to tell you to come here. We're going to pay you to do whatever you do to entertain us. And you can leave here, go 30, 40 minutes, get another back in. You feel me? You could do that in North Carolina, but it's kind of easy.

Get some verse money, gets some video money, whatever.

You know how it goes.

But in North Carolina, I feel like that's our baby and Jay Cole and Peter Pablo, all
