Oh my god, they love rap so much. Especially Memphis. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, shit. Well, I mean, everyone loves Memphis Especially Memphis. We get it. Everyone loves Memphis sounds.

I ain't gonna lie. True. I like to give my flowers to the OGs. Yeah. Because everybody needs to, they, you know what I'm saying? So you got niggas like DJ Zerk. Okay, yeah.

Mm-hmm. Shit, all over the fucking world, but they like the old Memphis sound got a cult following.

Yeah. Definitely. And they like tapped in. Like, it's to the point where like white boys like y'all self. Mm-hmm. these motherfuckers collecting the old tapes. Yeah. And all type of shit, bro. It's a guy I know. He got all the tapes. Every fucking thing. That Daniel came up out of Memphis. He got this shit organized, vinyl sets, every fucking thing. Mm-hmm. Records. Crazy, bro. Damn, those crazy ass white people, bro. I don't trust them. But yo, so I think I think it was complex that came out with uh like the top 10 rap cities. And you know, Atlanta was number one. I'm just gonna throw it out there, of course. But like, where do you feel Memphis, you know, you know, realistically, where do you think Memphis sits in like the top rap cities? And not to be biased, though. I'm gonna be 100. Because I'm I am an honest person, right? For real. But we deserve to sit at the very fucking top. And I'm gonna say this because over Atlanta. We got to.

Okay. Okay, I'm listening. Because we gotta keep it 100, man. Let's do that. We need you to do that. Everybody know where the style come from. If it weren't for Memphis, certain sounds wouldn't be here today. That's very true. A lot of sounds wouldn't be here today. You you're agreeing with this. You're stamping this. That's a fact. Okay. He hasn't said he's about to get crazy. Like I said, that's a fact. It's not like it ain't nothing personal. Yeah. It's just real. You gotta keep it real. You know what I'm saying? Memphis came with that, man, with that black metal swag, the motherfucking crunk, all that shit, man. You know what I'm saying? That originally came from the gangster walk, which the shit y'all be seeing me doing. Oh yeah. But it was a little different back then when they was doing it in the fucking um the 80s. It was a little different. It was more simple. And the whole city was doing this shit. You feel me? Yeah. And if you you get your ass beat, you know what I'm saying? Like it was like really that.

That's that was the start of the crunk shit. You know what I'm saying? But first, a lot of times we was calling it Buck, calling that shit get Buck. You know what I'm saying? That Atlanta. MC Hammer tried to run off with that. Oh shit. He came to Memphis and he saw that shit and he ran out with it and made a get Buck, get Buck. Get Buck. you know what I'm saying? But it's really it's really Get Buck. Get Buck. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah, before we started saying the crump, then we started saying crunk the music-wise, as far as you know, music in like 1990s, the early 90s. Okay. So you know what I'm saying. So does everyone get it wrong then? Like, cause, like, especially here in Atlanta, we kind of attribute crunk music, I would say, to like Atlanta. To like Atlanta. We do. So that's just wrong. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's it's it's wrong. It's wrong. It's just wrong. I ain't gonna lie. No, that's fine. You know what I'm saying? And I love Atlanta Crunk. Yeah. come on, man. Atlanta came in and put their own twist to it. You feel me?

They I feel like y'all made it more commercial. Mm-hmm. I hate the sound of that, you know? It's like it just sounds dirty. Yeah, we fucking we commercialized, crunk music. shined it up and marketed it. We gentrified, but put it in a target in a hell of a good way, though. Because it damn show went soft. Yeah, that shit was hard. Yeah. But John is nigga. Yeah, man. Show. Yeah. I mean, so you've, you know, called yourself the king of Crunk. Like, does he call himself the King of Crunk too? Who? Lil Jon. I mean, well. And like, who is that? Who's the king of Crunk? I just need to. You can pass. the crown. I'm the king of Crunk of this era. Okay. You know what I'm saying? So everybody that's making it crunk shit in all over the world. I'm the king. You know what I'm saying? I'm staff. Yeah. Yeah, so I mean, how That's me. like how do you feel? I should give myself a hand. Let's do it. Let's give it up for Duke. Let's give it up for Duke Deuce. Yeah, I mean, King of Crunk, ladies and gentlemen. How do you feel that you're, you know, revived- I would say you've revived Crunk music, clearly, right?

Like, I don't think anyone in our you know newer generation has been doing that. But like, since you came in, you know, into the game and revived it. How much do you think it's like impacted other people's sounds like globally? God, bro. Struck a chord. All over the fucking place. You gotta think about the gang shit. That's all I'm on. Yeah. On the Drake joint, You know what I'm saying? I know we influenced it. Cause me and my guys, the one that came back with them stomps in the fucking in the song. Ooh, oh, oh, and shit, that shit went on from there. Next thing you know, you hear that shit in uh oh, what's the shit called? What's the name of the fucking song? Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh, that's how we step on niggas. Uh, uh, uh what's Nardo, we oh yeah, Nardo. you gotta think about it. All this bro, it's a lot of shit. Like, I wish I just had this a good fucking memory where I could be like, okay, boom, boom, boom, I remember these folks.

But it ain't just the music, you know what I'm saying? It's the videos, a lot of shit that I've done. I see it every fucking way, you know what I'm saying? Does that bother you? Nah, it don't bother me, but it kinda bothers you. It does. The only thing that bothered me is motherfuckers don't get paid a respects like they should. The industry don't. You know what I'm saying? They act like this shit just somebody else will come do the same shit I was doing, and it'd be like, they'll pat them on the ass. You know what I'm saying? So how do you feel about like Lil Yachty? You have a song with Yachty. He, I feel like was pretty famous for coming out and saying, like, I don't give a fuck what the old people were doing. This is me, you know what I mean? And this is how I feel, and this is the music I'm making. You know what I mean? Lil Yachty himself. He definitely, is. I respect, bro. Yeah, sure. Yeah, I mean, we've just talked about this so many times, especially in hip hop, like being influenced and inspired, really in music in general. There's like one thing to be influenced and inspired, and then there's another to just like bite.

Yeah, I feel like they're trying to treat me like they did Sauce Walka. Oh, Mm. And what would happen? yeah. I remember when Sauce Walka was, like, going off on all the artists, stealing his swag and shit. But you know what I'm saying? But they still kind of tucked him in the shadows. That's how I feel. That's what I feel like going on with me. And I feel like you have two options right now, right? It's one to just be very vocal and like almost, you know, antagonizing the people that, right? It don't never really go nowhere, right? Yeah, even if you do it, what does that mean? What, what, what, what, what? get on all that rah-rah shit? It still don't ever, you know what I'm saying? It doesn't play out. And that ain't even how I want to approach the situation. I'm just gonna keep on stamping this shit until that time come. Yeah. They don't have to give me my flowers eventually. Yeah. I love that. No, that's for sure. So for someone who's never heard like the stereotypical, like classic Memphis sound, right? Which I know you obviously have your own spin on that, like we were talking about off camera. But like, how would you describe to someone who's never heard like 3 6 Mafia even, right? Just to use them as an example.

How do you describe like the Memphis sound? The Memphis. See, it's more than one Memphis sound. Okay, let's let's hear the different ones. You got you got the horror core Memphis sound. Okay. Which is like a who? Is that like a 3-6? Yeah, they all the artists did some version. Okay, okay, okay. So they've all kind of like they all did and dabbled in different versions of the Memphis sound. Okay, sure. So we got the horror core. You got the horror core that dark. They also call it black metal. Okay. Yep. You know what I'm saying? That's probably my favorite. I'm gonna hear the others. The gothic, black gothic sounds real evil and dark. Yeah. Uh then you got funk P-H-O-N-K. Yeah, Funk. You know what I'm saying? A lot of times it's gonna include some cowbells. That 808 cowbell. Or it might not have cowbells, but it might fucking around and have some fucking funky ass bass guitar in it, motherfucker. I like that one too.

I'm a funk head, bro. That's my shit. I like both of these a lot so far. Yeah. Oh what else we got? Anymore? Then you got Crunk. Yeah. And it might be, I don't know. I think that's about it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Those are all fire. I think Memphis is the greatest for that. We got different genres. Yeah, within. It's so good. So, you know, we do a lot of rapper drafts, right? Where we basically like draft teams of our favorite rappers. And we did a Memphis rapper draft, didn't we? We did. I don't even want to. Actually, I don't even want to tell him what we did because it's probably embarrassing. I'm pulling up. Okay, you can pull it up. Is it embarrassing? I don't know, man. We're not from Memphis, all right? Like people that are from Memphis were giving us shit probably in the comments. I don't want to know what y'all, all the outsiders, think of Okay, but I want to know what a true Memphis, you know, resident and true Memphis rapper. Like who's your starting five of Memphis rappers? Starting five. Starting five. Let's go. And you can be on it if you want.

Um I ain't gonna say me. Okay. I don't want to leave Rome. I'm so glad you didn't. Oh I kinda hate rappers. that do that shit. I'd be trying my best to keep it all way authentic. You know what I'm saying? Gotta hate rappers that do that. So I'm glad you didn't, but Project Pat. Okay. Yes. So good. You know what I'm saying? Is he playing the point guard? Do you think? Which position is he playing? Well, shit. Uh yeah, we could say point guard. You you picked the positions. Okay, I'll pick the positions that you can. Here's our teams. Okay. Project Pat. Yeah. Who Ben picked in the second round? Yep. That's right. Lord infamous. Okay. Yep. Damn. Is he the two guard, Henry? What do you think? Lord Infamous. Infamous powerful. Maybe power forward. Rapper. Rapper. Rapper. rapper. Damn.

I know. Shit, there's a lot. I'm trying to see who I want to put in there. Well, look at our teams. I gotta go. I gotta go slide, uh, Playa Fly in them off. Play fly. Play fly, yep. Pretty sure none of us can. Then We gotta hit him with a he's a swing. He's a swing. Swing. You know, like small forward swing, swing guard. Tommy Wright. Tommy Wright? Uh center. No idea why. All right, so we need one more. I feel like I'm finna forget something about the board. Oh, yeah. Look at those two teams on in your hands. Anybody from there? He's like, nah, these sucks. I really did want to say Gangsta boo though. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Shout out Lola. We ain't got nothing wrong for MJG now, though. Like, I see I picked MJG in the last round. But you know, what else? You know. Okay, well, we'll give you a six man, bro. Yeah.

No, no, it's all good. It's all good. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, for sure, man. Um, but all right, so we were, you know, we were joking about how like some of your slang and you know pronunciation of words. I was not getting correct off camera. I was having to have you repeat yourself a few times. So clearly, Merzik is that is that right? Merzik? Close enough. Okay, well, that's clearly like the most famous one for people that aren't from Memphis because you know, you hear it in rap, right? What are some other like slang or like stereotypical Memphis like words? to us? It ain't slang, it's just our accent. Okay, so when you go somewhere else, what are the most common ones where people are like, what'd you say? What okay? Yeah, I will because you know those, you know. those. I was gonna actually say the slangs instead of the accent words that people let's do both, let's do both. Let's do slang first. Slang first. What are some like words you only use pretty much if you're from Memphis? For me, man, motherfucker, I would be like, say that again. I'd be like, Brutiful. Brutiful. Brutiful. you know what I'm saying?

Beautiful. Um of course, music. Yeah, but as far as a slang, one of our favorite shit to say is junt. J-U-N-T, junt. What does that mean? It can mean anything. So it's like. Play that junt again. There you see, you really own it. Yeah, play that junt again. Yeah, man, them junts hard. I've been talking about your shoes. Them junts hard as hell. So it's kind of like joint, but it's junt. Yeah. Junt. Kind of. Kind of. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But way cooler. I think we all use it the same way. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Uh so junt. Junt. Wow. I'm going to Start using that. Should I pull it, man? That's typical. Yeah, man. Hey, did you did you create Anna? Where did Anna come from? I don't know. That's Memphis slang too. Animosity. Right. Yeah, old school Memphis slang right there. Okay. And um GTD. No, that's just uh that's just got the draw. This, they come from Martin.

Okay. Man. I feel like obviously I've heard stamped, but like not in a while. Yeah, is that like is that more of a Memphis thing too? I ain't gonna lie. Type shit come from Memphis too. Really? Y'all did not start... Oh God. Bro, no, no. Okay, why not? So where you heard it first? Here, obviously. Here, obviously. And when was this? Long time ago. Type shit? What's a long time ago. Whatever I say, you're gonna say longer. No, I'm gonna I'm telling you, I'ma be 100. 1997. I got an exact year that type shit came. around. Come on, bro. Probably like 2015. Okay. You ain't hear that shit in no 2000. Oh. I got him. No, you didn't. I got him. Because we started saying it in 2013. Oh, Fuck, dude. I knew it. You motherfucker. I gotta lie. One of my homeboys, his name B-Lord. He started type shit. 2013. I don't know if he started it, but he was the first motherfucker we heard saying that shit. And since then, it's been type shit, type shit all over the fucking place.

Damn. That's great. Type shit. And actually, actually, one of the guys that do the slang shit. Oh, y'all know the shit they be doing on the whiteboard in that white room, and they be like, they be talking about all the different slangs and shit. Yeah. Uh huh. He actually said, like, I ain't gonna lie. When that homeboy from Memphis, the one we we we we heard him say that shit first. Yeah. And then that shit passed on down. Wow. All right. So for the record, Duke Deuce's homie created type shit in 2013. I ain't say he did it, but I said it. He did it. Somebody in Memphis. Well, that guy from Memphis was your friend. All right. That's amazing. Holy shit. Alright, what's like, what's like the the like thing that most people get wrong about Memphis, right? That like if you're not from there, people think like, oh, Memphis is this, that, and the third, and like they're just wrong. Like, is there like a common like misunderstanding about Memphis? Or do we just have it? Or do we just like have it? Y'all pretty much got it itself, itself, when people say front music didn't start in Memphis.

That's the only thing motherfuckers get wrong. Yeah, that's a big one. Um, you know, so obviously Three 6 Mafia, we've mentioned, you know, clearly classic uh, you know, group out of out of Memphis. You've had the chance to work with Juicy, J, and who else? Project Pat? Somebody out of Memphis. Uh Juicy, Pat. Who were some of the like OG? Yeah, Paul okay. Dolph. Yeah. Oh. Shit, my father. Yeah. I said my father. My pops. Yo, what's it like working with your father? We've had a few. I've always wanted to interview uh, you know, Hit Boy and talk about like the big hit. Big hit. Yeah, like that relationship. What's it like working with your dad? I don't think my pops know that when I be doing beats, making beats and shit, or in my music, I be really trying to impress him still. And I I realized that about myself like not that long ago.

Like, damn, I really still be trying to impress my pops. That's crazy, fool. That's like a thing we all have inside of us. Yeah. Make our parents proud. Still that little kid in the inside. Yeah, yeah, that's crazy. Because he's hard, right? What? Yeah. Ooh, crazy. Because, yeah, how are we, I call him every other week. Pops, how do I do this? I don't I don't, How do I do this? How I do this. I'm good. well, because when did you start producing? Is that new? Uh nah, it's not new. But at some point I really wasn't like really going all the way in with it. I kind of got on to it, then fell off, then got on to it, then fell off again, and now back on to it, and I ain't falling off. Yeah. What's what are like the pros and cons of producing for yourself though, right? Because we've had some people on here that are artists who also like produce for themselves from time to time. And I feel like there's always that like blessing and the curse, right? Because sometimes you're like too close to it.

If you're doing, you know, multiple, like you know, you know, basically if you're wearing multiple hats, right? Like, what do you think it works better for you all the time? I don't, I guess it just depends. Just depends on the situation. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But it's definitely working for me right now. Yeah. Wait till y'all hear some of this exclusive shit I'm gonna play for y'all. Oh shit. That's probably my favorite, right? It's probably my favorite part of interviewing the artists. Yeah. Is hearing the unreleased shit? And we said I think that part four. Can I say that part four is on the way? Uh a part four of what? Memphis Massacre. I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm work I'm finna start working on it. Okay. So it is on the way. You can say it's on the way. We're looking for exclusives here, dude. If God willing. We're trying to announce shit. Like, we're trying to get the you know, the deep cuts. Oh my god. We need the headline. But I do got a uh group album on the way, made me and mafia. Y'all made double G already in the cut. Yeah, yeah. And then you got Glockyanna. Yeah. And Lil Thad. you know what I'm saying? We we working on an album together, and also I'm working on an album for the I want to say spring.

Almost, yeah. Okay, maybe shout out Made Men Mafia, man. Yeah. So WTF. I'm working on my WTF album. We need that. Ooh, yeah. That's perfectly on brand. We love that. Yeah, this one, that album right there is gonna be fun, though. It's gonna be different. It's gonna be fun. Mainly, it's gonna, but the the bitch is gonna love it. The bad bitch is gonna love you for sure. You need them on your team. You have to have this. Yeah, for sure. So, well, you know, it seems like you're someone who really has like studied kind of who's come before you, right? Like you seem to know a lot of like the history of rap, you know, you know, specifically like from your city. We've we've had conversations with people about like, does it matter? Like, do artists need to give a fuck about who's come before them and like be students of the game, or can they just live in a vacuum and create, right? Like, what's your opinion on that? That's kind of what I asked with Yachty, but um Yeah, but I don't think he like, you know, yeah. Uh I mean, well, I I guess he just depends on the artist.

To me it's important. Yeah. What do you think you gain from it by like being a student of the game? Man, style. Yeah. It's culture. It's Just knowing what's what. Like, you know what I'm saying? Oh, I I'm a huge fan of it. And it, it's just, I don't know. I just feel like it can it helps you be more a little bit more creative. Because you're not just hearing, you're not just in this modern time. Like, shit, I like to fucking time travel. I be going back. Yeah. I don't even just listen to rap when I go. I listen to alternative fucking corn. Goddamn. Oh, shit. you name it. Shit, I listen to the rock. music. I'm a rock star, bro. I'm a crunk star. Yeah. Um see. I think it's super important. I don't think it is. I think okay, what's important to me though? It's very important for me to do it. I think I think for it, it is, it's definitely on an artist-by-artist basis. Like for some people it's important. You just gotta know yourself. But I'm not hating on the kid that comes out and just has a style and wants to do him. Like, you know what I mean?

That's good too, because he ended up creating something that's unique. Because he broke the rules, because he didn't know the rules. Right. You know what I'm saying? I don't even go by rules. Yeah. So yeah. For me, I just feel like this is just me guessing, right? But if you were to ask the majority of like, you know, what we would deem successful artists, if they do like study what's come before them, I would be very Most of them do. I would, I would I would lean into that they do. Sure. And so then you gotta think, like, well, why do all the successful ones happen to do this, right? And I think it's for some of the reasons that you were just saying, right? Like it, it's important. I don't know, man. It's important to me. That's like a per it's a personal thing, but like I respect an artist way more if they have like done their homework. I think it just also shows that like they're serious about this shit, right? Like they live and breathe it. Like they're taking it, like they're respecting it almost, right? It almost comes off to me as like disrespectful if you just don't give a fuck about like anyone that's been doing this craft that you're like starting out about.

You don't have to take an SAT to start rapping. Like I'm not saying you got to pass a test, but like I just feel like it shows that you're like interested in this shit for real and like really care about it, you know. It kind of feels like if you want to make this a career, you'd like to know where how it even got to the point that it is today. You know what I mean? I don't know, that's just my opinion. But old head answer it is an old head. It is an old head answer. I feel I feel so so with Crunk Ain't Dead. Uh, did you know that was gonna be a smash? You just knew. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Because I. I called this shit. Yeah. Tom Wax. Did anyone like stamped? Yeah, Well, did anyone fight you on it and be like, nah, that's not the one? No. Everyone, everyone knew it was gonna be. Hell yeah. Everyone knew that was gonna be the hit. Because there weren't that many people that heard it before. Okay. Uh-huh. Kind of kept it. Yeah, it was just people that was close to me that knew this shit was turn. Yeah. It wasn't even a it wasn't even a song there for it was just a fucking jacket for beats, freestyle. I finna bump off of different beats and just drop the shit.

Mm-hmm. Then that joint just stood out to me. Something just told me, dude, take that joint and make that joint its own thing. You know what I'm saying? Glad I did. Yeah, damn. Right. Yeah. So shit went crazy. So you weren't even getting like a ton of feedback from anyone. It was more like an internal thing. Like obviously you had a small circle of people that heard it, but really it wasn't like you know it wasn't like you posted a snippet and the fans were going crazy, so then you dropped. it. I just knew what was I just knew what was missing in the game. Which was what? Crump. Something different. Crump. Crunk. Everything was just laid back and you know what I'm saying? Yeah. And I just knew that shit that shit was gonna go. It's pretty crazy, man. Like, you know, we were hanging out a bit before we got on on the set, and I mean, you're kind of a laid back dude everybody can't say it. you know what I mean like I kind of expected you to come in here I expected you to get up here like what the fuck and like and like dance on the pool table or something like I don't know it's going to break. Yeah. it's going to break, hey man, you said it. I didn't. That's a fat-ass leg. I mean, if Henry can dance on it, bro, you got it. What makes you think I have I don't know what you're doing here by yourself bro damn I'm not dancing on the pool table. Let me find out, Henry. Okay, well, both of you guys cannot get on it, that's for sure. You'd be surprised, um, but but yeah, I mean, so so a lot of people say that, that they're surprised that you're not like, yeah, I'd be real chill, you know what I'm saying, and especially women, they'd be like I didn't expect you to be like this You're so cool and laid back. I'd be like, yeah, man, you know what I'm saying, are they happy about that or were they hoping for the I mean it's just turned up, but I ain't gonna lie, it's, it's times I am turned up though. Yeah, yeah, it's just be on and off. Yeah, yeah, but a lot of times I be chilling right, no, it's just so interesting, man, because it's like we only see a certain side of, you know, artists sometimes, right, like, you know, we've had the privilege of hanging out with a lot of people that only other people see like on the internet and like in videos and whatever so it was just interesting to see you like come in and be, you know, and even like on an interview, obviously, you're not like piped up and like tired. Were we expecting you to be like yelling at us or something. I don't know, man.

Like, I don't know what I expected, but I kind of expected. You could play Spider-Man. Okay, you think so? The new Tom Holland? You give me Spider-Man vibe is this Peter? Parker. Are we circling back? Yeah, kind of like Peter Parker. Peter Parker. are we circling back? Peter Parker. Are we circling back to the beginning of the episode. Was that your way of doing that? Like he's getting trapped in your web. Pause. Oh. Sorry. Henry. Did I do it? All right. Let's call it. Let's call it. I'm gonna get a sip, too. No, but so how long are you still pushing Crunk Ain't Dead today? Like, how long do you put how long did you push it? I'm not pushing it, but my fans are they still want it, bro? Oh, my God. It's number three trending again, or right? Like the sound is trending again. Yeah, it will, it's just it's trend every few fucking months or so. Like crazy.

What are they doing with the sound? Like, you know what I mean? Like even though I don't got no plaque from it yet. Really? I don't know what's going on. It's not gold. It's not gold. It's gotta be. It has to. I thought it would be. But we talked. It's got to be. But yeah, but but but so we talked to KY Engineering about plaques, and he said that sometimes the data is harder than you'd think to get, or the labels don't like push to get the data to the certification. It'd be weird shit like that. Yeah, like funky shit happens where he's like, I mean, I'm technically only 156 plaques or something. And he's like, but I know that I have like 50 more or something. And yeah, Them motherfuckers streaming. Yeah. Yeah, it is. That's the what is it, bumboo? That bumboo. That bumboo. That gets there. So, So what are some of the like trending types of videos? What are they doing with the sound? Tastes like a burger. Is that what you have for dinner? Yeah. I have dinner, yeah. It was for lunch.

Oh wow. Okay. It's it's 9:43, folks. I ate one thing today. Hell yeah. See, you would think I ate a lot, because I'm unskinny. I swear to God, I've only seen him eat like three times in my whole life. I haven't eaten today. Exactly. How today? No. I'm gonna have a smash meal after this, though. He literally eats like four servings one time a day and then just passes out for 12 hours. Damn. It's not true. It's so true. It's part of it. But no, no, so what are some of the like you know content creators doing with the you know with the song? Yeah, like what are the videos? Yeah, like what types of videos are they making? Using the song. Um is there like certain trends that have been happening? Well, I mean, it'd be uh it'd be a lot of random shit to be honest. Yeah, you get bro, NFL, oh my god. They love it, bro. They use this shit every fucking year, bro. Like all through the year, but they use this shit like on some reviving, the part where I'm they reviving me out the flow. They use this shit and put put logos on the I'd be like, bro, that's incredible.

The NBA, they do the same shit. Oh man, they but they bit the uh they were biting the NFL's content strategy. Huh? I don't know if they was biting. Yeah, I don't know who came first. Who do you think? The chicken and the egg, man. I have no idea. But they use this shit for a lot of different sports, right? Okay, then you get that makes sense. Then you just got motherfuckers dancing and shit too. Like a lot of shit going on. Yeah. Oh, it'd be on a lot of different shit, bro. It's a lot of shit. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? But the sports ones is hilarious. It's a good one nowadays. Um, all right, so you know, you talked about this before, but like, how's the sound evolving, right? Because I feel like, you know, you just dropped a song murder that's a little more like melodic. You were gonna say melodic deuces here, but you also hinted at the fact that you've been making different types of music, right? But but like, are your fans receptive to it? I don't know. It's weird. Yeah. I don't know if it's some of them, it is, but then you got some of them that be like, nah, we just want the crump shit. Oh, you know what I'm saying?

But then shit, a lot of new fans start, you know what I'm saying, pulling on through for a nigga's soul. I think I'm just still building different audiences and shit like that. But I try not to, I try not to listen to some of this shit like I only want the crunk shit because if I only just do crump music, then y'all just gonna box me in and I'll be a one trick pony. Yeah, and that's the fucking problem. That's the problem with the internet. There's too many people with opinions that can really get to you. You know what I'm saying? Back then, you just respected the artist for what the fuck they put out. You was thankful, right? Grateful, Nah, it ain't. it's like a lot of ungrateful shit going on because they got a voice now. Oh, we're entitled as fans now. Entitled. as well. There's too many voices. Well, but because it's a it's like a blessing and a curse, right? Because obviously, if you listen to your fans, then you're almost guaranteed to give them something that they quote unquote want. But if you let them dictate what it is that you're giving, it can hurt you too.

It can hurt you. Yeah, I think listening to the fans is better maybe in the short term, but it's not a good long-term strategy. You know, you know. You still gotta have your like long term, but it's so hard. Like, how hard do you feel like it is to kind of bring them on the journey with you? Uh you know, like as you evolve, like that seems hard, bro. Yeah, I don't know, man. I'm still trying to figure this shit out, too. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? man, this shit. Damn, this music shit I'm serious, man. Yeah, because it would be so like I'm not gonna lie, man. I'm not gonna lie. Even I get discouraged sometimes, bro. Uh-huh. I totally get it. And I'm saying it on camera, like, right? I do. I do. Yeah, because I mean, shit, even us, we know if if we do certain types of content that people really like, it's tough not to just get sucked into, like, oh, well, this works. We can just keep doing this. Yeah, keep doing this, and then they're gonna eventually gonna be like, damn, you got the same flow, right? You're doing the same shit. You're gonna get DaBaby'd. You don't want to get DaBaby'd. I ain't doing it, to a lot of money. bro.

Using DaBaby as a verb as a verb. I be doing a little DaBaby like that too. Yes, but then when a nigga do something different, we hate that shit. Go back to your old shit. We like your old shit better. But then it'd be a new audience that love this shit. They'd be like, that shit hard. We're trying to tell them that. Yeah. y'all just I don't know, people just be boxed in. That's where it comes into that really like weeds out the real, like the fake fans from the real fans. The ones that appreciate you for who you are and the art that you want to make, they're gonna come with you on the ride. The ones that just fall off, they weren't probably gonna stay for that long, anyways. Right. So it's standard best to just keep doing what the fuck you wanna do. Yeah, right. Because that's also what's gonna keep you excited enough to keep doing this, right? If you weren't excited to keep making only crunk music in that specific lane, bro, a nigga will be bored as hell. Yeah. Imagine just putting out all shit you don't like. I'm tired of screaming on these beats, bro. Putting out music you don't like, you gotta show to the music video, you gotta promote it.

You don't even like the song. Ugh, it sounds horrible. Oh, God. that does, man. So you crazy. Yeah, so we were starting to talk about this off camera, but I told you save it for on camera. You know, what's a Duke Deuce show like? Um very energetic. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Um, I feel like my crowd, when I'm at a show, my crowd just kind of like they they go off of whatever the fuck I feel or whatever the fuck I say. You know what I'm saying? My crowd with mosh pit. Hmm. My crowd be on some trap shit. I got a weird mixture. What's a Duke Deuce fan look like? Just like the average Duke Deuce fan. Like, what are they like? Bro, I'm gonna be 100 with you. Majority of them be weird. Okay. Majority of them be weird. Then you got some some hood ones.

You know what I'm saying? They be just on some straight little gangster shit. But then you will see some motherfuckers that be on some emo shit. Okay. You know what I'm saying? So I get a lot of. That's the corn. That's the corn influence. Yeah, you feel the rock shit. I got a lot of different type of fans. Yeah. But a lot of them be like just normal people that probably work at best Buy. Yep. Shout out to them. You know what I'm saying? I love it. Yeah. Damn, I love it. that's quite a. I'm like imagining those three even groups of people at the same concert, and I'm like, trying to make friends with each other. So I'm going to be goth. Be real gothic motherfuckers. Okay. Yep. Have you had a goth phase or like an emo phase? Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, Memphis Mask 3 kind of give you black dark goth chirp vibes. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Um. But you ever done like the black fingernails or anything like that? Nah, nah, that ain't my style.

I'm too big for that, first of all. You know what I'm saying? What big boys can't do it? The farthest I go is the dangling earring and the fucking piercing right, right there. Yeah. And they called me gay for that. Really? They're gonna talk about it. Sissy boy. Gay. I got a bitch. I'm fucking at the house. What you saying? Man. These niggas Be lame, boy. Uh doing a lot of uh dancing on stage. Yeah, I do. Hell yeah. It got moves, bro. It got moves. Crank it up on them. But I don't do this shit the whole set though. Yeah. You gotta get to them like bits and pieces of hair so they can just keep feigning for you. You know which songs, like okay, I'ma not like spit this second hook. But a lot of times I'm going to go crazy. a lot of times I'm giving them energy. Man, like I ain't gonna lie, bro. I be out my body, it'd be a different type of energy. I'd be going into a this phase, bro. My eyes might roll back to the back of my head, and I'd be just going stupid. Damn.

What's your do you kinda like black out? I do. I do. Like, and then you come to it after, right? I ain't gonna lie. The the the better the crowd is like when the crowd is like they they so crunk that they turning me up. Yeah, oh my god, I black the fuck out. Yeah, them be the best ones. Yeah. When I come out there on a stage, they turn. Like that type of crowd, them be the best ones, boy. This shit there turned me to a whole nother person. My shit just, my body just rolling loud take over. Rolling loud? Rolling loud was one of the especially the first one, bro. When I got up on the fucking, before I got on the stage, they were like, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, oh my God. I got up there. I ran in like, yeah. Oh my god, this shit crazy. Man, don't fuck with it. It's hitting people with trash cans. Ooh, I was like, yeah, there's some crunk shit right here, bro. I love that.

Marsh pit and all that shit, man. I love that shit. Yeah. That that's gotta make you that almost would make me like wanna just keep making the pipes up music. That'd be hard to be like wanting to give them the, you know. It's just that you it's certain little shit that come with the melodic music too that you be on. Like what? Like playing it in the morning. Certain Fan base that be with this shit. They just be like, it's so cool. And then plus this sometimes I want to just pour my feelings out on the beat, bro. Yeah, like being more vulnerable. And I know how to do it, bro. I got motherfucking, I got I can hold a note. Yeah. You do have it. Yeah, I got a voice, bro. You know what I'm saying? For real. Yeah. Uh don't get me started. That was nice. That was a nice uh E flat. I don't know. E flat. I was like, what? If you actually knew the note, that'd be crazy. Someone fact check me. Yeah, but I mean, damn, that that would be really hard for me, man. Is like to get the the positive feedback online and then to also see the people live pipe the fuck up to the like crunk turned up shit. That would be so hard for me to want to or feel comfortable stepping outside of that.

I don't know. It would be so easy to just do that. I like the idea of having music you could play like at 9 a.m. Yeah, in different situations. or like with a girl winding down, you know, or like we need that. We gotta have it. We do. We gotta have it. You don't wanna be in the bed and you you can't play your music. Yeah, yeah. You can't listen to me. I mean, a nigga can like go crazy. You feel me? I was like, I don't know, there's a time and place for that too. No, there is. There is. I mean, yeah. But you want your own little shit you can mine. You feel me? Yeah. And then it just let them know that hey, this ain't this. I'm I'm the one I want to play with. Like, I got I can do this and that. Ooh, ooh. Yeah. Oh man. I feel you though. Yeah. I'm definitely not playing like young boy at like 10 a.m. I don't know. No, it's too early for young boy. His fans would say this never too early for young boy. Some shit I can listen to at 10 a.m.

For sure. Why be better? No small, no small. It's it's more mellow, it's melodic. Yeah. He does have a little bit of that. Yeah, for sure. So uh so you and Waino have the Duke and Wano show. Are you still doing that? Stamp it, yeah. We still doing it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, okay, because we had Waino on the show. Yeah as well. Now he's been here. Yeah, okay, cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so, like, what made y'all want to start? Like, right, well, I guess first of all, what's y'all's dynamic like? Is it like big bro Lil Bro? Is it like homies? Is it is more like, it's more like homies. He's not like the crazy uncle is older, but he don't come off like, yeah. He doesn't. He doesn't. Nah, he'll do no shit like that. Yeah. We gotta, cause I'm a leader myself. So we just kinda like got our own thing. We both leaders. Yeah. And we are both hungry and wanna do shit. So that's how that shit ended up happening. So, what made y'all actually start like the live streaming show? Because it's kind of like the thing to do, honestly.

Now, no. It's like shit. We we can have more than one thing going beside what we're doing. Shit, we got a family, we both got family. We got mouth of feed. Let's do something. Yeah. Let's make it work. So is it usually gaming? Or like what y'all you it's gaming and conversations and talking about real shit that's going on in the world. Yeah. What game are y'all playing most? Uh we playing this game called Um A Way Out. Okay. You heard of it? It's a two-player game. You and your when you and this guy got to break out of prison, bro. Really? So hard, bro. Y'all gotta play this. Yeah. Are you a gamer like historically, or is this new for you? No, no, it's not new for me. Okay. I love games. Okay, okay. But but this one's in in particular is new. Yeah, yeah, still. Still. And like, are y'all doing well? Like, you really got to like low key communicate and be like, all right, safe answers. All right, boom.

We were breaking out of prison, right? And it was thunderstorming, like it was loud thunder. You gotta kick through this door, but you couldn't kick through the door if the thunder didn't hit at a certain time. Oh, you alert the guards. Alert the guards. Wow. So you had to wait on the thunder, and both of y'all have to hit the shit at the same fucking time. Damn. Man, this shit's so cold. Okay. They put some real thought into this shit. Is this PlayStation or what? We playing this on Xbox. It might be on PlayStation too. I don't know. Straight me as a PlayStation guy. I'm not a gamer spot anymore. Yeah. I haven't gamed in forever, bro. You enjoyed it though. I think I it sounds fun. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I just watched some of y'all's clips even, and y'all looked like you were having a grand old time. So I love waiting. We should do that. Yeah. A little gaming. Yeah. Content?

Just like, and we could be playing music of course. Yeah. It makes sense. Yeah. I mean, it would be like kind of one sided. I'd be stomping his ass out of everything. Yeah, yeah. And we ain't no low key be winning a lot. But you know, yeah, what it is. Yeah, for sure. So you know, obviously, you know, Wayne was at QC, and you know, QC was the uh team for a while, and I know that you know, clearly you've parted ways and you're you know doing your own thing, right? Like, I don't want to get into you know how that happened and that sort of thing, but I do want to talk about like just the first moves you've made, like as a you know, like independent artist, right? Versus being signed to a label, like what you know, what was the what was the plan like after you parted ways? Really, the plan was just to keep doing what I was doing, yeah. But to go even harder, you know what I'm saying? And I've been real consistent, very consistent. You know what I'm saying?

How important do you think the consistency's been? How important? Yeah, very important. It's everything, right? Yes, everything. That's what we talk about. Well I'm saying I feel like I gotta be more consistent than ever right now. Yeah, but the main thing, like nowadays, I feel like the games changed to the point where it's like, damn, we can't be just rappers now. Now we gotta be fucking content creators, which is so funny that even you dread it. Even you look like you're dreading it right now, bro. I hate the shit, bro. But like you look like you're having so much fun when you do post content. So that's what's so but that's I just want our audience to hear that, bro, because they hate content creation as well. Like 99% of artists dread. Cause it's like, bruh, if I don't do this now, people not really gonna pay attention to what I'm putting out. Nope. And not. Because they're paying attention to social media. Right. It's like, oh my God, bro. But I feel like because we had a comment too. Someone said.

You gotta work hard to make the shit and you gotta work hard to get people to listen to this shit. I don't want to be on this whole complaining, but god damn. No, this could be. It's a lot, man. It is a lot. And I think we are very hard on our community, and like, you know, we do not want y'all to complain, but at the same time, we want to be empathetic because it is a lot, bro. You have two jobs. You have two jobs. But here's but people think that content is this new thing. Artists have always been content creators. They just didn't, the word content didn't really exist. Like people going on MTV, people going on radio, doing their press runs, like all that shit. That's that was content before we called it content. To the point where it was like the it can affect your career, your career. Like well, it also wasn't as frequent. It wasn't as frequent, bro. Yeah. You weren't going to go MTV every single day. They're doing photo shoots for magazines. They're doing, yeah, they went. You get shadow banned if you don't post a lot. I'm shadow banned right now.

Oh god. Like, bruh, oh god. Like, how the fuck is my following just keep fluctuating? It's going up and down. Why is it going up and down, up and down, up and down? Yeah. It's like they make they they it's like they got it to a point where you got to post. Yeah. And then the more you post, the more you go up. Yeah, feedback. It's over with. Joe back down. You gotta start from scratch. Yeah. Get the posting a little bit. Ugh, they might hit you with the uh I post this, this I'll go up. But uh try to post another job. Nah, nah, that ain't it. Yeah, they got you working, bro. It's like you were slave for real. For sure. Slave to the algorithm. For sure. Yeah, I mean, but you do see an impact on the music, like the streams when when you are consistent with the content and the content's doing well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's the thing, guys. That's like, I mean, very clear. And that's the reason why you're trash at posting shit. That's so funny, man. Are you a deleter?

You're like a post deleter if it doesn't do well. Sometimes, yeah, sometimes be like, bruh, why these folks ain't seeing my shit, bro. You make you mad. They're like, bro, I'm gonna delete it. I'll post it another time. You sometimes, bro, I swear to God, it's times where I'd be gonna post some shit. Like, why the fuck is why the fuck is it not moving like I want it to move? All right, boom, let me go delete that hoe. Post their whole probably another hour or so. And it goes crazy. The whole stupid. Like, bro, how y'all shit set up, bro? We've we've had it happen too. Yeah, it's bizarre. Yeah. Like, I just missed the old when it was like clinic, it was original. It was just more predictable. It was just whatever I post was like, ugh. Those days are over, my friend. That's crazy. Those days are over. It's because it's because they try to make money too. When people are scrolling, it used to be like you only saw shit from your the people you follow. But now it's like they'll show you shit from anyone based on what they know that you like.

So they don't give a fuck who you follow. They're showing you this because they know who you are and they know what you're gonna spend the most time on. So it's kind of like forced you too. They showed me a lot of ass and titties. They know we know what you like then. They like they show me a lot of women, fool. I'll be like, God damn, shit. Back to back, ain't it? Damn, alright, cool, but I fuck with it. Not today. Yeah, maybe tomorrow. Maybe there should be some setting that you can be like, don't show me the shit I usually like. You can get um, you can TikTok at least you could click like I'm not interested in. I know, but he is. That guy like that on Instagram too. Yeah, you try to fix your algorithm, maybe. But he just wants it temporarily. He wants the ass and titties like tomorrow. He's just like, not right now. Not right now. Today I'm serious. I'm trying to focus today. No ass and take just show me like helpful content. Yeah, I'll fuck around and get stuck and be like, okay.

God damn. Yeah, I was supposed to have recorded songs, and I've just been looking at ads and titties for the last four hours. Yeah, I'm scared to look. Ooh, yeah. I ain't gonna lie. This this one of the best um podcast slash interviews I've been on in a long time. I appreciate that. On that note, Duke, we've been in a final man. We've been in a final segment of the best podcast interview you've ever done. Yeah, yo. We have the final part. Let's go. Okay. Let's go. Duke, this is called the Rapid Fire Rampage. What's it called? The Rapid Fire Rampage. One more time. Okay, I see what you did there. I see what you did there. Cool. Anyway, there's three parts too.

The fact that Duke has the fact that Duke has come full circle to the road. Roasting us to the beginning. Later on. I know. I I know somebody else you look like too. Who, Joe Burrow? What he play on. No, you look like Jew. Yeah, it's pretty good. Yeah, he's he's saying that I look like me and Sam. Sam Darnold. He was a um for the bangles. He's a comedian. Ooh, funny guy. A Jew. Is he Jewish? He might be Jewish. Big nose guy? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's my definitely my one major body for me. Maybe Joe List type of vibes? Okay. Anyway. Okay, let's get started.

Real, he's real pimpish type of guy. Like he uh real boss. Okay. I'm happy to hear that for sure. Yeah. All right, Duke, you're starting a brand new rap career. You have no music, you have no social media. First of all, what is your new rap name? And second, what are the first steps you take in your new career? My new rap name is don't look at me, bro. I'm not giving you anything.

I'm not naming your new rap name. Uh it'll be probably let's just go with uh fat measle. Fat musical. Hard. That means you have to be fat forever, though. Is that cool? It don't matter. No, you don't gotta be fat. No, you don't. It's still gonna, it's gonna be like, why they call him fat man? That's kind of funny as well. Yeah, yeah. I mean, fat Joe kind of got lean. He got a little swim. And then what are what are the first steps you take to start blowing up your career, like as a brand new artist for someone that has found success for the people out there? I will blog and post videos, like drop my videos to my songs and blog all at the same time. Yeah, flood content, baby. What's the name of the game? It's gonna already just that's my content right there. That's it. Okay. Dude, give us the best and worst thing about the music industry. The best thing about the music industry is the money.

The money, it's the money, the money. The worst thing about the music industry is the fake shit. The fake shit, the fake shit, fake shit. Stamp it. Stamped. Okay. Did you just stamp the mic? I did a stamp sound. Okay. Yeah. Last one is the short answer. Duke, what is your favorite curse word? What the fuck? We'll give him the whole phrase, I think. So good, yeah. Totally give it away. I also just wanted to get one of those on mic, so I'm gonna sample that. I'm stealing that now. Appreciate it. We got it recorded. Stamp it. The best thing of that music industry. Yeah, the money. Okay, that's a song. I know. I might have to do that. That's fine.

It's kind of sound like some Afro Man shit. Bro, we'll see. I have to produce it though. You gotta get with me and do it, bro. Because I'm in it. We wrote it together. Yeah, that's what I do here. We can produce it together. Let's do it. Alright, man. Stamp it. Let's knock it out. I gotta stand. I got a PP. Yeah, okay. Two more parts. They're quick. This is the this or that portion. I'm gonna give you two choices. Pick one. Super easy. Here we go. Starting with hooks or versus hooks or versus. I mean in what way? Like, there's no further context. That's all you get. Just gotta pick one. Well, you can do a lot more with a verse, so let's say verse. Okay. Record in the booth or record in the control room. Control room. That's the way everything is. Hot or lemon pepper. I'm tired of lemon pepper. I don't too much care for hot because I got acid reflux.

We can tell. We can tell, bro. You've had acid reflux the whole time. No, he's saying. You fat. I mean, in so few words, yes. That's why. I got that shit bad. I've got it too, though.
