liftoff show we are the la leakers we are here i'm just incredible i'm dj sour milk and tonight on the show we are joined by some family yeah we we got some some old family that that we've known for a while we got some new family that we that we just met tonight uh introduce yourself my name is gil and um known as the american troll on podcast on youtube okay okay thank you for joining yeah thank you guys for having us yeah and uh we got our brother tyga here uh and and i mean i i guess just right off the bat we'll just get straight into the to the video you dropped a video um a few weeks ago i carumba uh there was a a lot of talk on social media you know about it being offensive and and you know i i think people had a lot to say about it you reached out to me and you know you were like one of the people that you wanted to speak to that caught your attention was gill american cholo and so first and foremost i want to say i i thought it was dope for you to to take the initiative to you know what i'm saying to to reach out um you know what i'm saying and that that's honestly how this even happened uh shout out to our guy lulu uh who connected the dots for us as well man but um i i don't know if we should we should let you you speak first gil and just kind of like tell us your point of view on right so first of all uh thank you for coming so i appreciate that man um i'm not looking for any kind of fight i'm not looking to blame or call taiga any names i'm looking for some kind of understanding because in the community the brown community mexican whatever you want to call it it wasn't the song itself that was that was uh so offensive to us it was the videos it was the the visuals on it right and i believe that it has a lot to do with just uh not just tiger himself but a lot of the industry being toned up when it comes to mexican-american or just brown people in general and let me explain to you what i saw as a brown man looking at that video thank you i'm looking at the video and originally i see a guy i see a greasy fat mexican eating chips rooms all dirty and then i see the when he's outside in the low rider you got tortilla chips falling down and a lot of times when it comes to us people don't really see it but when i flip this script on it and say okay let's put an african-american man sitting down on a couch dirty-ass room eating some fried chicken goes outside into the lowrider scene and you got watermelon falling from the sky and that kind of visual is the kind of visual i got to kind of explain to other people so you can see what we're talking about and when i the song itself no not at all brother i don't think the song is offensive i don't believe the karamba parts offensive either not any way shape or form but i think that maybe i don't know if somebody wrote that video for you or you did it i think when you guys were all in a room thinking about what you were doing you guys probably thought it's going to be funny it's going to be fun we're going to have a good time about it but it seems almost saying correct me if i'm wrong like you had no real representation of any mexican american in that room telling you hey tiger i don't i don't think this is it to me am i wrong to think that it was just maybe you and maybe some white or other african-american uh artists in the room when you guys were making that video um i think what it was is and like i wanted to go back to like why like i really wanted to sit with you because i mean i just got back from like europe so when i dropped the video i wasn't in l.a i was in europe right and then i started seeing like a lot of people you know offended by and i was kind of confused so that's why i didn't respond i took time to like didn't comment on anything i didn't like any posts and i kind of like tried to do my research a little bit i tried to ask a lot of my friends that i grew up with that were mexican saramook is like my dj he he's mexican right my engineer that recorded the song with me he's mexican like so i kind of i was really kind of confused at first like like you know why are people offended because i've always done latin i've always done latin records and like you know when i've done something that was like a mexican wreck like go loco like i wrote that song and i was like this reminds me this song is literally for like the mexicans i grew up with you know what i'm saying being from l.a that i went to high school with this is like this is i want to pay homage to them this is what i've seen growing up and friends of mine you know i'm saying when i may go local that's what that was like and i think well i carumba i wasn't um thinking like this is for the mexicans i grew up with you know what i mean so i think i think the people um at the end of the day like i'm not mexican so i can't say like what's if what mexicans are offended by and not you know what i'm saying but i know like i had no intentions on offending anybody like you know what i mean so for one like i want to apologize to like um the mexican community and like my fans that are mexican like i have a lot of latin fans that are puerto rican dominican that probably weren't offended by this video but mexican my mexican fans in l.a they there definitely was like some that were offended and like you said like people like american controller you know what i'm saying like so and i i was really just kind of confused like because i wasn't making this video to be offensive i was really making this video like to be creative and the whole concept of the video was just different latin things it wasn't like a mexican themed video the song is you know mexicans don't say ikerumba like that's more like just maybe spain or like just a latin word so i think when i made the video first of all the character is just me in a fat suit the character is not even mexican you know what i'm saying but this is this character was literally a reference from um i don't know have you seen like nutty professor there's a senior nutty professor where he's like uh he has the same kind of sweatsuit on um and it's eddie murphy in a fat suit and um like he's like eating ice cream like it's kind of the same setup if you look at like the couch and the tv and all that and um he's like he's he he like wants to like do something for himself he's like he feels bad for himself because he's like just he's lazy and you know what i'm saying so now he's like working out and all that so that was like even when i spoke to the director like those photos were my reference you know what i'm saying and it was never my intention to be like this character that i'm creating that i want to play because i just want to do something fun i like to animate with my videos it was never my intention to be like this character is a mexican a fat mexican character and i think that's why i was confused because i was like but this is not a mexican character but this is a character this is a latin theme song to where like there are elements in there that are mexican like from chips and guacamole but i mean like that's not like everybody loves guacamole like you know what i'm saying like but i eat mexican food twice a week but like i'm from l.a it's in the context of how you do it i could understand how you're saying that but then when you put the the the low rise yeah you put in the lower right if if it was like a guy in a maybe a doctor's suit then you think all right no doctor whatever you thought you were going for right but when you put everything in context and then you see like i said if you were seeing watermelon flying from the sky the african-american community would have been upset and rightfully so right um like i said when when it when it comes to like the k local song we made some noise and we said we didn't like it and it wasn't so much the song it was a word in the mariachi suit the mariachi suit is very sacred to a lot of people right that mariachi suit means family yeah okay okay so so when we saw that that's what we had an issue with because that's that's tradition that's that represents struggle that represents family and it seems like a lot of artists and then after that one are starting to do stuff like that you had the killoka one right we made noise but the thing is that people are higher platforms don't really listen to us right then you had the one with blue face carnassada that was another one which was even worse than any one of those other ones and then you had this one so it's almost like at a boiling point when we're like man when does this stop when to to us even though sitting here talking to you i don't believe for one second tiger that you did this maliciously and and we're upset and we're like just trying to disrespect people right i do to a point feel like maybe you guys were like well there was a little backlash with the local woman but you know what backlash makes makes for more views and and that's where i'm standing from is what i'm kind of thinking you guys are probably thinking i will get a little heat for it no problem we'll get more views and they'll just be quiet because that's a problem with the brown community a lot of times we just look the other way and that's from where i'm standing from a lot of us feel that way that hey these guys are just doing this in the entertainment industry to get the views to get a little bit of controversy and after that we're going to shut up like we've done for so many years and we're going to go away you're going to get your views and you guys win you know as far as as far as your project but with us we're really telling you dude this is offensive and some younger individuals may say this is not offensive to me right well it's the lack of education is what it is how we were talking in the room it's like this me and you are boys right and me and you have jokes we talk about our mama we talk about this but when my mom comes in the room those jokes stop i don't talk about my mama so when we see stuff like this playing off on air it's like man that's that's that could you're talking about my grandparents you're talking about the mariachi so you're talking about our culture it and a lot of times we hear from the industry oh we're uh we're paying homage but it's like to us it's not you're not paying homage you're mocking us and i'm not saying you're doing it specifically but it seems like the industry time and time again has a history of mocking brown people and then when we say something you know people say even our own stop crying but it's not that we're crying it's we're in a relationship right and in a relationship if somebody tells you hey i don't like the way you're treating me you don't sit there and just tell them oh stop crying someone what's the problem let's talk about it and i think that's what we're doing here we're we're coming to you as a community telling you hey tyga we don't like it we we we just we feel disrespected by it and we want to know why one and why a director would sit there and believe that it's okay to throw tortillas from the sky right i think um i can't speak for like other people that made like records latin records but i i could say definitely for like go local like i thought i felt like that was paying homage i didn't see any like disrespect in it you know what i'm saying like but but then again like i'm not mexican so but it's hard because it's like i grew up my whole life in mexican culture being in la so it's kind of like hard for me to like separate the two you know what i mean but this video i can understand a little bit now where you're coming from because it's like and it was it was meant to be a funny video but not make fun of you you know what i'm saying yes i think that was the that's also like what i really wanted people to understand like this video was not to make fun of mexican culture or latin culture because there's other things i mean there's literally this character i created was a it's me in a fat suit it's kind of like a a childlike kind of character that loves like he loves junk food he likes watching the shows that he's like watching that's why there's like he likes wrestling that's why there's like a leech lucha libre scene there's a um he likes cartoon that's why there's like me dressed as a yosemite sam which is like probably i think he's like jewish or something like you know what i mean there's a there's a um old car salesman me dressed as the old car salesman which is like oh cal worthington i just seen those commercials like when i was young growing up in l.a um and then there's like there's another scene that i took from like uh eminem video to where there's like mariachi and then there's like the bullfighter because like the cover is like me messed with this like bullfighter and that's like spain so there's like just different latin things but i don't i i mean i definitely didn't have any intentions to like offend anybody that's why i want people to know and you know if people are offended i really apologize that's why i really wanted to sit with you because i'm like it's important to me especially like my mexican fan base like i do a show 50 of the crowd in california on the west coast is mexican and those are my fans so if anything i'm hurt that if they're hurt you know what i'm saying so like well the the great thing that came out of this tyga is the conversation because believe it or not this actually has turned into actually a bigger conversation not just about the industry but black and brown relationships and it's in the issue with the with the video has brought the conversation at the table we're having a lot more dialogue with one another and i think that's what's needed because especially like in los angeles area we're here we're you know the african americans here so you think it's cool to do do you think it's cool to do like latin records if you're not latin or do you feel you just feel like you can no certain things in culture it's certain cultures certain things the culture absolutely music is universal you should be able to do as long as it's good music you should be able to do anything almost like with with comedians comedians are the only ones that i would say can do whatever they want because that's what they do they they bring some crazy topics put on the table and put their spin on it but when it comes to music no i would i would be a fool to say oh tiger you can't be doing mexican music no that's wrong music is music and music is universal i would never say i think uh i think you're allowed to do any of that yeah art as well just yeah i mean and that's what it is like my art is never meant to offend anybody like my art and the music brings people together that's you hear my music in places where people are brought together whether a party or club or a birthday or like you know so it's meant to like have a good time and entertain people never meant to offend you know i mean absolutely yeah and what do you what do you recommend not not only for for him but this is just for the industry in general moving forward because um obviously people take offense to different things you know what i'm saying and like he was saying he he he actually has you know a lot of mexican people around him that work with him but it's like certain people might not take offense or either that or they know him so well that that doesn't even cross their mind like nah i know him he you know what i'm saying right like those thoughts don't don't cross your mind and tell them like uh yo you know what someone might get offended by that because you yourself might not be offended you know what i'm saying so so like what what do you think is what helped us help with the yeah just like moving forward i think you're not going to make a movie boys from the hood without having actual african-american people they're telling you yeah this is how boys in the hood is this how this is yeah so if you're making a song like this i think you get some kind of consultants you know you pay a couple grand to tell somebody who's in the culture hey dude can you come over here and tell me if this is offensive or how does this work because i think a lot of times what happens is you get a bunch of yes man or you get people that get scared to tell you something and i'm sure there was people that maybe looked at your video and said this is not good but hey this is tiger i can't tell him anything you know he's doing his thing so i think moving forward you do videos like this yeah you want to get some kind of consultants from from that industry in other words if you're doing like i said if you're doing a black movie imagine if you're doing a black movie and it's a mexican guy and a white director that black movie's not gonna be authentic it's not gonna come out even though that's not what you're going for you're going more for a parody and have fun but i think definitely you need to get some kind of person in there that's in the culture knows about it to be like hey man you know what this is a little bit wrong this is a little bit offensive to us because we don't have that in our community really we don't really have any representation a lot of times we're not being hurt but it seems like we're finally starting to waken up as a people which is good because all we ask for is the same respect that everybody else is asking for we're asked to be treated exactly the same way that's all we want yeah and and what do you think needs to be done like as far as the mexican community goes to to to have that breakthrough you know what i'm saying as far as getting the the the respect in the hip hop community not even like not on a street level just just musically like like what do you think we need to do as as a mexican it probably needs it just needs to be more collabs it needs to be more coming together whether it's different races or not you know what i'm saying if it's mexican artists doing records with people like myself or yg or certain people that if it makes sense for the art it makes sense for the song i think it just needs to be uh just more coming together because i know from me i can speak for myself that i feel like i'm paying homage when i do some of these latin records or certain things like that like that's how i generally feel like when i may like go local or if i do like macarena that's like spain like you know like that's one of the biggest records we perform you know what i'm saying so i always come from a place of like endearment to where it's like i'm paying homage you know and like and i'm seeing the reaction of these latin fans and they're like they love it you know what i'm saying so yeah i can only speak for myself though you know right of course yeah and with the tiger situation let me ask you this tiger i hear you i do believe you're sincere in what you're saying 100 but i think it comes down to this especially in our community would you and i'm not going to put you on the spot here and now maybe you can talk with your team after would you be willing to take that video down that's what i would ask because to me if if somebody were to tell me i apologize i'm sorry but you still leave the video up it's kind of like it's a it's kind of a hollow apology because that thing that's offending us is still going to be there and at the end it'll be like it'll be like you go away you're still getting all the views people are still watching for the controversy and at the end we got nothing out of it and it's not like we're trying to get something to win we're trying to just hey guys we don't like it make reshoot the video do whatever you got to do and have somebody come out there and do this because listen like i said the song is not offensive not at all it's just the visuals on it yeah people right yeah i mean i'm definitely open for that you know what i'm saying i'm not going to say like i'm going to delete the art and delete you know of course you know quarter million dollar video that i just like out of my pocket you know what i'm saying but but like you said and and enough people have been i've been you know reading uh different comments and different people's take on it i watched your take on it and you know i wanted to really see how i felt and i wanted to sit back and i wanted to process how i felt and understood that's why i wanted to sit here with you so i could really understand and if if i feel like you know that that's right then yeah i don't have a problem with doing that you know what i'm saying dope i like that man um well like you know go local and some of those other records that are like big and platinum you know we ain't trying to we ain't touching them [Music] yo and real quick man i want you to to plug all your your socials and and and what you got going uh because because i do think it's a great thing that you got going on you know especially you know within the the latin community the chicano community um you know you you do a lot of great things man and you're you're local you know you're you're homegrown here um tell the people like where they can find you what you got going what yeah for sure listen on instagram is the real american trollo on youtube it's american solo and on the podcast that we have we can talk anywhere from the streets all the way to white house politics we can we try to bring conversations to the table a lot of people kind of try to tippy-toe around and walk in next we walk in there and just bring it to the table but we always have it in an adult-like manner we're not going to sit here and start cussing people all and doing that because once that happens the line of communication is gone yeah and what we're trying to do we're trying to bridge communication not just within our community african-american community why community any community and we're trying to empower our people to finally kind of wake up and say hey guys we're deep in america let's get involved let's use our numbers not in a negative way in a positive way because if it wasn't for everybody actually like making noise tiger would have never heard about this it would have been a local thing and we would just been pissed off and one day tiger had been walking somebody said this guy yeah what the hell are you talking about so yeah the platform we're trying to use is to actually have tough conversation but the same time we do interviews and everything else just you know spice it up a little bit that's pretty much what we do okay that's what's up man now we we we appreciate your time man yeah thank you very much yeah thank you for coming up here open lines of communication i think that was important absolutely i think both sides you know saw some some different perspectives yes um that like you said like just having the conversation takes us to to another place and i think uh this was a great moment today fellas for sure yeah for sure yeah yeah and once again you can check him out i'm sure all the links are on your instagram right oh yeah for sure at
