elevator that's annoying I have a [ __ ] elevator in my like house well it's like on the outside of it dang Rich chat but wow bro what do you mean you have a real elevator and what do you have people like waiting like how do you well no there's just an elevator that's like it's like in my building but it's basically my elevator basically like so say if you get in it and the doors open where are you I'm right I'm at my door but are you in your apartment in your condo or home or are you at no I'm like a doorway okay but it's not a Lobby it's like a private it's like right there like it's like a shared it's like me and the other because I'm in Malibu in this condo so oh nice it's a Vibe so you go all the way down but wait what I was gonna say was I'm really happy to be here thanks man seriously you're like Tick Tock Ellen oh damn it's a big deal to be here that's cool I didn't know that I mean we have a similar haircut or at some point we did and we're both from Louisiana um which is kind of crazy you probably wouldn't think that Ellen's from Louisiana huh I didn't know that you were both I didn't know she was from there yeah I think she grew up there can you look that up Zach huh Ellen Ellen DeGeneres yo Ellen DeGeneres is that was my big thing I always wanted to be on Ellen because I watched Ellen since I was a little boy yeah then I was like yo if you make it on Ellen like you made it and then I actually went to Ellen and performed I met Kobe he was there when you went on dude yeah Kobe was there let's see what does it say Metairie Louisiana wow Louisiana that's crazy wow metairie's kind of wild Metairie is a good place to uh like if you wanna um do drugs with somebody that's Italian at night okay well speaking of drugs that's a good place she she was originally supposed to be uh the chicken Pulp Fiction the uh not not a Uma Thurman not Uma Thurman's character but do you remember when Uma when they were like stabbing her in the heart to give her the adrenaline the shot of adrenaline and um the chick's house when John Travolta was like who's that girl with all that [ __ ] on her face and he's like that's my wife Ellen was supposed to play the chick with all the [ __ ] on her face oh really yeah fun [ __ ] fact oh there it is yeah that would have been Ellen DeGeneres that would have been Alan yeah oh dang yeah but that was a highlight for me is when you went there what'd you mean you went to Ellen yeah I went there well I went twice actually damn yeah and then we became like homies and then next thing I know I'm like us and our wives are like at her restaurant and [ __ ] Leonardo DiCaprio comes up and he's like oh what's up logic blah blah I'm like what the [ __ ] is going on what's my life I felt like somehow I was like joining the Illuminati yeah it was wild yeah it must sort of feel like as you get more popular that you start to meet certain people and you're like damn am I getting closer to like meeting like the final like lizard boss or whatever yeah I guess you know bro it's insane I'm actually because I'm going ham on social media now like I'm I'm like taking it so seriously spending really good money on you know my my team my camera guys my editing like I have in-house editors and I have two houses that I'm paying because I have so much [ __ ] that's coming because I really like editor trafficking it sounds like almost I'm editor trafficking yeah but it's all good yeah and no but I really believe in like this next chapter of my career where I'm just gonna be making music and having a blast but like I I feel that my personality is really what makes me me and it's what makes logic logic you know the biracial guy like just being myself and um I'm about to lean into that [ __ ] hard as [ __ ] so but was I saying about Ellen well it's interesting I think like as I watch you I think like first obviously people get to know you through your music right yeah for sure a lot of people have but I also then I also find and I found this I haven't found this about a lot of musicians and um a lot of musicians kind of aren't interesting they're interesting through their music but they aren't uh I've found a lot of musicians are tough to interview because um what's the personification they're they're trying to portray like who they are on the record rather than allowing themselves to just be be them you know what I mean it's like Mariah Carey takes shits you know what I mean but maybe she doesn't want to talk about that you know what I mean like I got I gotta use wet wipes what about you I'm still I'm still afraid to admit which way I wipe what you mean you'd be wiping towards the ball I mean I don't know are you [ __ ] serious what that's great you what you wipe towards your balls I don't think so anyway man so I use um I use I use wet wipes I don't know I mean they should have people like kind of like that should be something you have to like instead of like your gender like say which way you wipe like that way people can just assume your gender right there I get it I guess I don't know but I never heard about I've never heard of a man wiping towards his balls yeah that's insane I think that V who would do it you know nobody I know yeah anyway question uh I have a question for you is uh first of all are you cool talking about like fam nothing weird I'm just saying like family like if I asked you about families yeah okay cool because I don't know you never know yeah so your dad when he had you was 70 years old yeah bro because I was looking [ __ ] up because like I've seen you know cool stand up fun stuff like that but I like before I came to the show I was like man I really want to know even more about this this guy so that means that your father was born like over 110 years ago yeah let me think I was just a so funny asses man I was just thinking about him the other day and I was thinking about how um how old he would be if he was alive he would be he was born in 1910 crazy so he would be 113. this year wow that's it'd be crazy my grandfather was born in 1880. but to be busting nuts at 70. oh I didn't want to do it that's wild because your heart could stop [Laughter] that reminds me of my dad like every time you're like getting close it's just a risk man um how old was your dad and thank you for asking man it's sweet to you that you that you checked out and you care it's nice to think about my dad I was thinking the other day how it would be cool if they had a place where you could take clothing from like a deceased parent and put it on a mannequin and go spend time with your family in a weird way that's funny like if people need that kind of healing in their lives or something um I know you had kind of a wild upbringing so you started out in Maryland right yes sir okay just for an audience that doesn't know because some of our audience might not know you and I want him to get to know you and so he started out in Maryland and um and your parents are met both your parents are different colors right yeah my dad's black and my mom is white and I was conceived in a crack house after they had met each other after about three days yeah my mom was a prostitute my dad uh was a crack addict for a long time I'm named after my dad and yeah what's really crazy though is I remember my dad telling me he was like yeah you know I got a paternity just to make sure your ass was mine because I came out looking white as [ __ ] yeah because it's very apparent my father is a black man like he's not half black and that does he's [ __ ] black and um I thought he did it like when I came out the canal but the uh literally bro like three days ago a buddy of mine was at my crib and he's like oh [ __ ] I got a warrant I'm like what do you mean you got a warrant and he's like I got a warrant Maryland and I'm like bro when's the last time you were there he was like 10 years ago I'm like oh [ __ ] what do you got to do so he has to write the judge long story short he was looking up his criminal history on this website and he's like yeah you can type in anybody's name and I'm like yo type in my [ __ ] death so he types in he types in my dab and my dad's like bro he like stole my identity and maxed out credit cards before I was 18 and [ __ ] because we have the same name and so um I'm like let's look it up so we look it up and I'm just seeing like petty theft car theft possession charges and then I see Terry Lee Miller my mother's maiden name versus Robert Hall defend it and I'm like what the [ __ ] is this and it says paternity slash child support bro it's like 1999 so I'm nine years old right and I look this it's so crazy like bro I never knew like you know I heard about it I kind of saw things when I was a kid but you don't really put too much together yeah and then you see on the internet you're kind of it's almost you're like wandering through yourself it's like I'm reading I already wrote a biography you know what I mean I wrote I wrote autobiography so now I'm reading something that's even crazier and so what's hilarious is that it shows like that my dad took a paternity test because he was like that ain't my baby nine years later and it's nine years wondering what you if you did something at eight years old that he's like nah yeah but the best part is [ __ ] the internet I'm black I told you I [ __ ] told you yeah yeah that was wild dude yeah I think these days yeah being black definitely helps I think everything's kind of heading towards that kind of Ben Simmons kind of trans sort of vibe where everybody's gonna be I think honest people that's what I said we've always said like beige power like in three generations you can't you're gonna need it even now you need like a chart to be racist I feel like you need like a you know what I'm saying you need to like carry the one if you're really gonna get into it you can't even yell used to just be a little yell like or something out of the window and it would land on somebody but now it's like everybody's yeah yeah exactly um but yeah crazy that's crazy man did it make you feel like he didn't care or something at that point because that would be I feel like if I saw that or did your mom like instigate it and so that's why he had to do it no I think well I definitely think she wanted child support but also I'm just like woman what you gonna get from a crackhead like I'm just being real right I love my dad he's clean nowadays I actually I haven't talked to him in a couple years and I just texted him the other day and uh so I'm always trying it's like a [ __ ] black hole no pun intended that I'm always trying to go through it's just whatever anyway I'm like woman why would you even try to get child support when the man can't take care of himself at the time so I'm like it just to me it doesn't make sense but now your your dad has my dad on age nut busting but my dad was 63. this is what's really great so I'm one of nine wow but I'm the only child between my mother and my father so my mother has all all her children are with black men and all my brothers and sisters on my dad's side they're all so everybody's mixed but I'm the whitest looking I'm the most transparent and um what's crazy is is at 33 years ago after I was born my dad got a vasectomy okay and then five years ago I find out that I have a little brother no so the story is a wild one now so he was already chopped out and then he got a new baby somehow yes that [ __ ] just poked through and it's his because you know they made him get a paternity so would see Brothers has a stack of pizza man it was wild though about my dad is that who I love I'm just keeping it real you know so I always find really funny is like sometimes my family would be like we don't want our business out there and I'm like well then you shouldn't have done all that dumb ass [ __ ] what the [ __ ] do you mean but anyway I would never say anything too crazy but this is all public [ __ ] knowledge so either way yeah exactly so um my dad I find out I have a little brother it's like 2018. and um I wrote about this in my book because I actually wanted to adopt my brother but that's another story so wow I had a a stepmother her name was um Debbie and Debbie and my dad would use together and um Debbie OD'd and wound up in a coma for four months so she's in a coma beautiful woman she's in a coma my dad is like all right well this sucks he's in the program AA and he goes up uh to one of his friends and they're talking to God they find out that a close friend of his is dying um I think it was like cancer or something so he goes to see her and like her last words are like take care of my daughter and her daughter was like this young 21 year old girl he took care of her he [ __ ] her and knocked her up no yeah oh that's true yeah she is so AAA everyone's [ __ ] each other and it's knocks her up shortly after the baby's born she dies of a heroin overdose then um and now this had happened a bit before but while all this was happening my dad had um started seeing a woman who I think is now his current wife and then his then wife comes out of the coma and he's like it's over just like yo that's so crazy well sometimes women take a long time to make to decide yeah like that's crazy yeah but it's like wow she can have a lot of first things she gets out I know and then of course unfortunately she she OD'd and died a couple years later but this is like the life I grew up in man just drugs and violence and guns and my brother's running in the streets and you have surprise siblings it's like surprise siblings bro like 11 years old I found out I had four siblings I was like what it seems like so like such a chaotic environment to grow up in like were there times were there like some special times you remember like spending with your mom or dad that was just kind of like you and them one-on-one that were like that was kind of like a warm like human kind of time yeah I remember this one time my dad stole my earring upon it for crack that was dope damn it was just one earring too it was just one earring yeah um no my um I guess I guess a few times I had with my dad was music because he's a musician so he plays like gogo music which is uh you know prominent in DC and he played with EU and Chuck Brown and different people um and I think that's where I get a lot of my musical talent but he's the type of [ __ ] though he would like take me to the studio and if there was like studio time that he schemed like I I would get none of it like he'd be like in there singing like you know he's got some he's got some songs one of his most famous lines as a she's just a crackhead [ __ ] sucking on the devil's ding dong and he's talking about smoking a pipe I'm like I feel like that's copyright dude I've heard that every crackhead I feel like plays that straight up I feel like that is like a national anthem my mom my mom we we there was definitely for as as sick mentally as my mother was and is I haven't talked to her in over a decade now unfortunately wow um and I'd love to but she's just not there she's the type of person to be like don't take the late lord's name in vain God damn it you [ __ ] like crazy you know what I'm saying and she was she would she'd hit me with the hard R and all my my brothers and sisters growing up it's weird it was like yeah man your mom would imbalm you yeah bro it was like this systemic because she's you know I remember her telling me that she brought you know 14 year old black boy home to introduce to her parents and they were like we don't mix with their con here like wild [ __ ] right it was like old school racism yeah so it was inner because she would always obviously she's [ __ ] black guys like you're not you know what I mean it's like you know who's [ __ ] I'm usually back in the day they were driving like a Honda Civic it would be kind of like a thick girl that got sunburned pretty easy and was driving a Honda Civic and if she was a redhead dude she's smashing brother no cat brother was no every girl that drove by with a in a [ __ ] Honda Civic dude that was a little bit thick bro I was catching some sun and freckles were showing up on her shoulders bro oh my God she was going over to him I had some good times I did I had some good times with my mom but I had more where like my mother she almost strangled me to death one time I just been I've been kidnapped I've been through the the gnarly as [ __ ] [ __ ] molested wild [ __ ] but well and that was just that was my dad's girlfriend she just kissed me with Skittles in her [ __ ] mouth and I could taste the rainbow oh that would make me [ __ ] hard right yeah it was great I swear to god dude if a woman I remember if any woman came even near me when I was a child I'd get it wrecked what is up with that though that's a real thing I used to be in ninth grade like I couldn't get up they'd be like could you please write this mathematical equation and I'm like I'm [ __ ] doing math exact Galifianakis to decrease my boner before you stand up but yeah I think well for me I think there was no like I had such a like a rocky connection with my own mother like she didn't show me like a lot of and I say this a lot but I don't really go into it she like didn't show me like a lot of affection and she like would kind of look at me with judgment all the time and so I never knew anytime I got around a woman it was always like a lot of like real like uncomfortable energy was this even when you were like a child did you feel this way or was it more in your teenage in later years I didn't notice it until I got a little bit now I notice it all it all makes a lot of sense yeah but yeah I think my mother would just always had a lot of she never looked at me like just with like adoration there was always like judgment and so I think I always interpreted that like with a woman that there's always some type of judgment so I'm not enough immediately when I show up or even look at a woman it's like even when I look at a woman's eyes it was like I'm not enough so I think that like permeated in me throughout like being young and so I think it made everything kind of so then anytime I got close to a woman everything was uncomfortable because it was like how can I be this close and I'm okay like I'm okay to be here and it's not like I'm not being like feeling rejected it's like I think it made it made everything super just a lot of nerves in that space you know I get it I've always felt more of a connection with women because I was raised and surrounded by women so I've had to deal with like you know I've had sisters who [ __ ] come home after getting raped or you know what I mean just like the craziest [ __ ] and I don't know I just always like you know I see my my mom I'm like a little boy you know like damn you're a toddler she's getting her [ __ ] brains beat out of her she's all bloody and please come and all this [ __ ] and I'm like oh don't treat a woman like that you know my dad's smoking crack and Pawn in my [ __ ] PlayStation and [ __ ] oh don't treat your child like that so I saw all these you know my brothers running around with guns oh try to don't do these things and that's not me [ __ ] on my family like it's just right it is what it is you know what I mean and a lot of my family's really turned their lives around for the most I mean [ __ ] still in the hood and [ __ ] but it's good and you know sometimes [ __ ] would be like hey man like how come you don't give your money fan your family money and it's like one I I have and then it's gone immediately it's like I've done that and then it's like oh I learned my lesson immediately because like you give somebody money they don't know what to do with it it's even like okay what I'm gonna buy you a house and what I gotta pay your mortgage for the rest of your life or I got this I gotta so it's like you can only give but so much to to a person because if somebody gave me a million dollars when I was in the hood at 18 I would just be a Taco Bell every day oh like I would just be like I I don't know how I'd be doing coke dude I'd be trying to eat my own ass oh my god dude you do enough drugs you'll try to you'll get back there true all right it's time to take on the sunshine

for details but it's interesting you say that because yeah there's some family members of mine that like uh it's easier to share stuff with or like help them get something if they're trying to get in their life and I can help like financially and then there's some where it's like they're not in a space where they're kind of healthy enough in a way where it's like yeah you can't it's tough to if you give ten thousand dollars to somebody who's struggling with addiction you might never they may die no you can't do it yeah so some of that stuff gets a little bit tricky my niece I'm putting her through college right now she's one of the ones that like really broke through and she's doing incredible sorry what were you gonna say yeah um so but how are you able to like compartmentalize that stuff and like not get so attached to it because it seems like you're able to like talk about these pretty traumatic times that happen in your life and you don't but you're able to kind of discuss it in a way that's like I'm not like who [ __ ] like yeah I think you go through that or you never really that never really was I definitely did but I was never like I I mean I've had there's you know I've I've shed some tears over like not having a family you know what I mean things like that but most of the tears I shed were like having my son and like getting married to a beautiful woman that loves me and like giving me the family I never had and that [ __ ] makes me be like wow like I'll look at my son like this cute little three-year-old pure soul and I'm like damn I can't believe my parents smacked me around and did you know could crack in front of me you know I haven't had drug dealers in the house cooking crack I'm breathing this [ __ ] in like I could never imagine that for for my son yeah so it makes me really happy but I think the biggest way if I'm being quite honest how I dealt with uh my upbringing was through music through writing you know what I mean because like a lot of people were scared of therapy or this or that I've always been I've been in therapy for 10 years over 10 years now and it's it's helped me a lot and it's given me a lot of tools to break down um and better know myself but before I you know sat down with any professional I had to really look in the mirror and be like yo like what matters to you you know what I mean what what do you want what don't you want and that's why even with the wraps and [ __ ] like I didn't look at it at hip hop and go oh yeah I'm a boats and hoes and [ __ ] and I didn't like I didn't see it like that I saw it as a business and I say with persistence determination realism and wanting success more than your next breath you could truly [ __ ] attain anything you want but big key is realism so I wasn't like oh I went to twenty thousand dollar chain and I wanted to I was like I want to create a brand and I want to do it in a way that nobody else is really doing it and that's why my whole motto's Peace Love positivity it's about being yourself and also the craziest [ __ ] is bro Eminem is Eminem the goat he's the [ __ ] but he's not the first white rapper there was so many before bro I'm the first black white white looking black guy traversing hip-hop like me and Jake J Cole's genetic makeup the same Drake's the same you know what I mean so many people so I'm like the first of my kind as well experiencing this so when I would be talking about things like emotions and how it's okay to feel this and people like shut the [ __ ] up like and I had to like really navigate being comfortable in my skin and yeah yeah because I feel like that's not a universe where if you come with feelings in like a rap battle it's a thank you yeah you know that's not the Sword and the shield you want to bring in there it's changing a little bit though when you see like a lot of these ver like a lot of like um these like ciphers and verses and stuff you see online I feel like you you start to people get a little bit more emo in there yeah I guess I don't really give a [ __ ] about that [ __ ] I'm just like I love music you know what I mean like I used to be about the freestyling and all that [ __ ] and like the battles and that's it's cool it's cool but it's a lot of it's a lot of [ __ ] you I'm great and all this which is systemic I still rap like that sometimes like I'll have braggadocious [ __ ] like I actually had a line where I said braggadocious flow I'm vein like an IV so it's like it's just like little things where it's in us it's systemic why am I wearing this I'm wearing this because I never had it my people never had it so I I like it I got it what's up look at me in a way right it really is like you know what I mean I like to think I'd do it a little more so you know classic I'm not I just try to try not to be too over the top but if a [ __ ] wants to be over the top good he never had it and if that's what he has to do but I would rather sleep in my money you know I'd rather sleep in a five million dollar house in Malibu I'd rather have you a nice home or something yeah put a waffle maker get you a damn ottoman dude I remember when I got a [ __ ] ottoman cuz damn changes the game it does dude when I sat on the couch and then my feet sat on the couch touchdown dude I thought I was going to damn Heaven bro if I I would have taken my own life right there if I could have just to stay comfortable I got a number you could call um I got no dude I heard about that man um sorry our conversation's been all over a little bit but it's cool bro I'm trying to I'm trying to I like it it feels like we're just like I'm just chilling with with a friend so speaking of which you went to like five [ __ ] colleges what's up with that yeah man I think I didn't know what I wanted to do and I got into comedy and it like comedy was this kind of thing you didn't have to commit to anything you know I had I always have always had a lot of trouble uh committing to stuff and so comedy kind of made it where you have to commit I think I didn't want to commit to a college I just I don't know I had big like commitment issues I think out of the gate in the world I didn't like kind of my environment so much that I just didn't I was never gonna let anything kind of place me or pigeonhole me or even if it was a school you know it was like I want to do my own thing you know I think that's dope I mean I feel like also if I personally I feel that your 20s like to like 26 27 that's the time to just [ __ ] your life up if you're gonna do it like following a dream yeah like Let It Go Because by the time you're 26 27 you're like all right [ __ ] it I'll put this tie on and go to this job for the rest of my life Chase Bank or yeah you know whatever but it's like I feel like Enterprise Rental do whatever you're gonna whatever your ambition is do it now do it right now while you still can because you don't want to look back you know um fully regret I say that a lot of people you could even and I know this is maybe look frowned upon or whatever you could kill somebody a lot of people are doing I would say that's frowned upon well a lot of people are doing seven years now oh for a murder yeah so I'm like dude if there's somebody that we really don't need I mean ask some other people don't just [ __ ] pick somebody in your area yeah but you know get a small consensus and look dog if you think it's gonna help Humanity bro you only you know people are doing seven years wait a second how did we just go from following your dreams to murdering people and only getting seven years it's rap music Dude That's What It Is Well actually one thing I did want to also ask because we were talking about emotions and [ __ ] so as a as a comic you know as a [ __ ] genius comedian which you are you know you're so quick you're witty you're on your [ __ ] has there ever been a time where you were like going back and forth with another comedian and they actually and this is it's not a two-part question but more of a description and they actually like [ __ ] like legitimately hurt your feelings or is it more so like [ __ ] I've been bested in this comedic duel or both that's a good question man I think I've invested in a comedic though for sure about like guys like you know I'll be I'll get around like Shane Gillis sometimes and just who he is makes me laugh or if I'm having like a rough day um [ __ ] one day I've been eating I went on a new diet or you didn't eat any calories or something for like a week so I could barely even breathe you know like I couldn't even open my eyes that good and I had to do an episode with this kid Bryce Mitchell right and he seemed like this like I thought he was like a wizard you know and he's like a UFC guy like he's a very interesting dude I don't think people would say he's a wizard though and he's I've like had no energy so I was like I felt pretty best in that day I think sometimes there's times where you get with comedy I think it's good with podcasting because you can do the conversations again I would uh but I think doing something like rapping that kind of thing feels really scary because people judge bars of raps and stuff all the time yeah they don't do that with comedy nobody's like oh dude Larry had some [ __ ] bars over here you know yeah you know it's like they're not doing that so uh they might say when somebody has a couple of good jokes but um that would be scary to me to be like okay I'm gonna rest on these lines and put them out has there been something you put out where you're like because I put out some specials around like I know that the recording that night wasn't the best I know that like after the audio came out I'm like these people I was working with didn't do didn't capture it the best I know that I probably could have been in a better position and taking care of myself better the weeks leading up to it so I was putting out something as good as I could um but with your work you gotta feel like you get a chance to be like okay this is it is there ever a point where you like started something and by the end you were like [ __ ] but I still got to put it out no I would never put out something if I like wasn't behind it like if I wasn't behind even if it's like some fun [ __ ] or because that that was one thing that was really tough to navigate through this last decade because uh you know I'm known as a [ __ ] Lyricist like I rap you know but I've also broken out of that box and made pop music I've made trap music I've sang I've done Indie records I've done all types of stuff because I just that's me I want to do different [ __ ] you know it's like you've acted you're you have a podcast you're so much more than just uh you know just a comedian quote unquote yeah you know and that's how I felt about myself so the the hardest thing was was navigating like people what other people thought and what other people said because I did care and because I wanted to be accepted so much like I literally it was so obvious and apparent but that's because I love hip-hop and it's a beautiful space but the thing is I was always accepted by the greats the people in this you know industry whether it's Wu-Tang Clan Nas like so many people that I've come into contact Q-tip you know I mean we've worked with all of them yeah and they give me my flowers and it's really amazing but for so long I was so focused on like well I want to be accepted by I don't know like the taste maker or somebody with a [ __ ] podcast yeah it's like [ __ ] them in their podcast I rap right and and when I or any [ __ ] Hardy and any [ __ ] hard in a Honda Accord with [ __ ] loud pipes on that [ __ ] dude it's like oh [ __ ] does that guy like me you know no that's a real thing that's what I'm saying that's a real thing that would be like that's the dude it's like instead of really if if you know if the greats are giving you uh your rewards but I'm still listening to this [ __ ] driving by and he's listening to Nelly still I'd be like [ __ ] dude I got I'm missing somebody I'm missing him you know I love Nelly but I'm just saying yeah it's like I'm missing something you know I get it I think um having my son do you have children having my son really totally open my eyes about how much [ __ ] doesn't [ __ ] matter right like my son this thing that came out of my nuts is healthy and happy so Joe Schmo talking [ __ ] about me like who gives a [ __ ] also it's like I'm rich and I'm famous and you're talking about me like good job like bro you did it like mission accomplished you you meet you met the green lizard alligator at the end of the [ __ ] game like you did it and so uh for me that realization and this is just in the last last few years because my biggest thing was I used to be so upset that it hurts when people would say mean things about me which they do on the internet all the time he's crazy I hope your baby dies your wife's ugly and when you see that every day every day all these different things just people that [ __ ] that people spew out it can [ __ ] affect you and so I used to be so angry like [ __ ] like why does this hurt why does this hurt and then I realize it's like bro it hurts because you're a human being and you have emotions and when I stop being so hard on myself and I was like bro it's okay that it hurts what you're in control of is how long will you let that affect you and how much will you let it affect you and now if I see some [ __ ] if I subject myself to being on the internet and I see some [ __ ] I just kind of just like hmm [ __ ] this guy and that's it and it's pretty cool but it used to keep me up like so what helped you turn there because that's really some AAA type stuff it's like you know if I sit there and read something about it and I feel start to feel a certain way that's normal that kind of can happen but if I sit there and continue to feel that way then I'm doing that to myself at a certain point I don't realize it this that thing is the instigator but if I'm sitting there and still thinking about it then that's a choice that I'm making really at a certain point we're still going through it right because I used to I'm not crazy bro I used to go and like people would be like oh you're amazing I love your comedy I love I love your your albums I love and it's just so much love I love you I love you but then we look and it's like you [ __ ] suck and it's like oh my God you looked at the guy and you look at him he's [ __ ] 14 plays Xbox he's a [ __ ] and you're like they're like this whole re this thing when like deep down like it doesn't matter why are we doing it starts up but I think a big part of it is um what it what it means to be human and adaptation so when you think about like us [ __ ] on like an African plane thousands of years ago oh yeah like big buck Connor type [ __ ] type beat and when we walk out of the brush like nobody's going wow look at these beautiful clouds look at this Scott no you're looking for Lions immediately and so I think that's what we do on like today fast forward we're looking for where's the threat where's the threat um and now I'm just kind of like man I I honestly don't know why the [ __ ] I I cared so much for so long you know what I mean well it would make sense I feel like you cared if you're looking for I mean I feel like especially as children especially growing up you're probably looking for adoration everybody wants to be seen or accepted yeah I don't know you've seen I've adapted pretty well yeah yeah it's not like it was ever terrible but there was just times when it was but and the reason I love to to discuss things whenever I uh such as this whenever you know we kind of reach the subject for people out there it's just like bro you're not alone like it's a real thing not to sound cliche but like everybody goes through [ __ ] everybody you go on the internet you're gonna fight with some [ __ ] it could like it can it can affect you and just the the sheer amount of [ __ ] that we see in process mentally daily like I don't think humans are even supposed to be doing that yeah like think if it's like 1950 you know and little little Mary Jane like this [ __ ] didn't have Twitter and all and just see all the [ __ ] with all these girls half naked by [ __ ] 13 being over sexualized and she's like well I need to change myself and I need all like that [ __ ] didn't exist well that's uh you know I wonder a lot of Contracting you know and I've jerked off recently I'm going to be honest with everybody but I think that a lot of times we've exhausted our sexuality so I like you know I feel like you're you're even maybe even through a DNA strand you're only supposed to see so much Cooter and everything over time and ass or whatever I actually agree with that oh so it's crazy that now you're having children I think that have no sex because you [ __ ] you you know Ronnie the daddy or whatever spewed it all out dude that's why I [ __ ] Ernie is just sitting in the yard [ __ ] licking rocks and scrolling on Tick Tock because he can't even he don't even have anything left in him you know it's like it's weird like whenever we created digital media it's like we burned it out all out of us I think there's a lot of men out there who are gay not even because they want to be it's because they all the straightness got jerked out of them over time by looking at photography wait what yeah if somebody wants to be [ __ ] gay they're just gay oh well some people are but some you're thinking Some People their their predecessors have just just busted so many nuts that they or even them but there's a difference wait no but it's like then what you're talking about is more so celibacy rather than a sexual orientation I don't know man I think we don't know the long-term effects of some of this pornography think about it dude like like when you're saying back in the day you go to maybe the store and you see a woman pick up a melon oh yeah jerk off in the truck and you think about it oh that was insane every time you [ __ ] see an avocado salad you [ __ ] gotta hide in the in the in the in the Outhouse when I was a kid I used to [ __ ] watch anime and I'll just be in my head thinking about like this anime [ __ ] with big ass tits and I'm like 12 years old and oh yeah bro because I didn't have anything I didn't [ __ ] porn I have [ __ ] internet you know what I'm saying I was busting nuts to [ __ ] pencil drawings damn dude it was a Vibe though I remember one time I busted so many nuts the first time I ever busted a nut oh yeah take a second I busted like 14 nuts I was like 12 years old and I'm shooting ghost loads daytime or night time um night all night literally I it was the first time because you know it's like my dick would get hard this or that I'm like 12. bro but like your neck would get hard when my dick would get hard a lot you like Batman what yeah so like I was like I'm on the Gravitron at the fair or whatever yeah the [ __ ] UFO literally I would I I you know I just I'd never busted a night and then you bust that first nut and it like opens your mind you're like oh my God so I jerked off all night and then my dick was like all fat oh it hurts it hurt and I went to school next day and it was like I was walking weird and then I I came home and I was like man I talked to my friend I was like yo I think my dick's [ __ ] up can you look at it he's like what you only look at your dick and I was like yeah man it's all good dude that's exactly what I'm talking about you do it so much you end up in a gay instance what can I say what can I say but no it was it was hilarious he was like yeah he's just [ __ ] up you need to chill so I was like okay and then I told you that yeah he was just like yeah that's not normal man yeah you know yeah I remember getting so much ointment and I would pack it around my weiner because it would like I just exhausted its use so much and I would get like all that Neosporin are you being serious oh 100 and I would put it all around it because it would hurt you know I mean Louis CK was on here and we talked about that about imagine if you had a friend that was your wiener and you just kept [ __ ] pet every time he was around you just kept [ __ ] shaking him around until he spit up all over yeah and then he did it and then everybody's like let him rest let him rest you're like nah [ __ ] get him back oh my God how many nuts have you busted in a day oh not that many I'm more of a I'm more of a long I'm more of like uh like draw it out Edge I wouldn't even call it edging I would just call it very lazy kind of archaic nuts you know I think chaic nuts I think maybe four oh man I got you beat yeah good I can't handle it I mean I mean I was I was just really young it bums me out if I do it a little bit it bums me out you know what I'm over porn I'm so over it with horrible they used to have oh they said this actually seven states push to require ID for watching porn online Louisiana just did this and I think this is one of the best things that's ever been done for sure because dude I really do think uh logic that this this has ruined a lot of relationships it's like it used to be a woman was where any fantasy you had was directed towards your spouse towards your wife um and then now those fantasies are all exhaust you that person can't even compete with the the the the digitality of of all this pornography yeah what does that article say I'm sorry is that Gotta Love Zach I love Zach thanks bro he's good man and I've never told him that so I'm glad I'm actually no he's great he is after Decades of can we zoom in a little bit after Decades of fretting over miners potentially being Overexposed to pornography online several states are suddenly moving fast in 2023 to attempt to keep kids off porn sites by passing laws requiring age verification no but that's real I mean have you ever seen like those funny tick tocks or things where it's like literally eighth grade and the band's playing at lunch and then they'll stop and then the kid does the PornHub drum thing as like a joke and then all the kids laugh because they know it's it's [ __ ] deep man because like I remember the first time I was exposed to pornography I was like five years old no yeah but it was it was print that's how old I am it was print yeah same it was print magazine but I just didn't understand I remember going up to my my mother and once again she's a huge I don't know [ __ ] on her here but I'm just being honest she's a [ __ ] hypocrite because you know I was like what's sex I was five years old and asked her and she was like that's sex and I'm like what the [ __ ] oh she did that she did this she just went like that and I was like oh [ __ ] so then I went to my homies I was like yo check it out I'm having sex right now and I'm like telling all my friends and [ __ ] they're like what the [ __ ] um but yeah I mean that's not like that bad like seeing seeing like a little nudie magazine when you're grown no you're growing up like but now it's [ __ ] deep man like I remember one of the first times I like was on the internet watching like 2006 2007. we're like I didn't even know where to go and I mean like Yahoo like just typing [ __ ] and like some chicks like going down on this guy and then she like pukes all over his dick and I'm like scarred and I'm like oh my God like that is some [ __ ] people don't need to be like a Golden Corral I know and now that's my fetish but it's like it's it's just a weird thing but yeah it's overexposure man well it's crazy but the the harm it does to us I think that's the things we don't know it's like that harm it used to be you would take all those feelings and you put them to where every time you saw your spouse yeah fantasize about them and if you're open if you're open you're like hey what's up you're trying to wear this maid outfit and yeah you know pretend uh you know XYZ like it's just to have those fantasies you know and my wife she's she's super open her [ __ ] dad's probably watch this right now so I'm not going to get too deep into it but if you know what I mean yeah but no she she's my wife man she's she's incredible you know what I mean she she really satisfies me and that's another thing when I think like all through my 20s I was just like jerking off watching porn just because it was just kind of a thing to do not a lot not crazy like I never had an addiction nothing like that um you know and I've known some some some dudes who have and have beaten that which I think is great um but I'm just like for what I kind of I'm almost like saying it like saying it all yeah and now I want to just like not anymore and just focus on my personal sexual relationship with my wife not that I'm not or haven't but just to eat even more I think porn has been so normalized in a way um which is not it's like as an adult like to each their own you know what I mean but I just think this [ __ ] about making sure that miners can't aren't really so exposed to it I think it is important yeah but also somebody's it's almost like guns you know sure you can have all the gun laws you want XYZ I wonder what the comments are looking like right now anyway you could have all these gun laws whatever but at the [ __ ] end of the day bro somebody really really wants to [ __ ] get a gun and kill somebody they're gonna do it and they can even make a gun 3D print a fun gun and that's but that's how I feel kind of about like porn where it's like if an underage you know teenager who's older wants to see that they're gonna find a way to do it but if you make it more difficult then I think you're exposing less people to to something that can essentially traumatize them you know uh you ever heard that show euphoria I met someone from it one time at a party um well they really talk about in in an incredible way how um porn has just [ __ ] with the youth thinking like yeah [ __ ] take this dick yeah like all this and it's like that's really I mean it's a time and place you know there's definitely evening but you know like your first time yeah you can't be like that and then a girl thinks like all this crazy and then here's the crazy part you're not even connecting with the other person at all now you're almost performing actions that you've seen so then it's like the human connection it's totally gone it's like we're almost it's become weird because with porn you're almost start to and with everything digital you almost start to impersonate what you've seen yeah so now we've taken art in all forms and some people consider porn art and that's fine we've taken art we've made art and now we're watching the art we've made and reenacting the we don't it's like we're we're done yeah all I know is like my first time having sex I was like [ __ ] Titanic wow really I was like I love you oh my god well also I never experienced true love like love I I I I I don't really believe like like I love my mom and my dad but like not like I love my son not like I love my wife you know what I mean it sounds like that was a big change to you like once you had a family kind of because sometimes you hear that a family will solve a lot of those old like wounds because you suddenly have a thing that it's not about this behind you anymore it's obviously about in front of you yeah and when you're loving your son you kind of replenish that thing that you didn't get in a weird way it's like no not even in a weird way that is it that is it and that's what's so crazy like just to think you know it was gonna be like that um like were you scared to get into a marriage were you scared to have a child like those are well I wasn't scared to get your marriage this time because I got it right the second time oh you did a first marriage yeah I did a first marriage wow that was hard um and that was just it just wasn't my person there was no there was no like no uh infidelity no there's no that is just and respectfully like I won't really get into it because that isn't my story to tell and that's a story that I would happily tell you you know if you over dinner or hanging out or whatever but publicly it's just it just wasn't my person it wasn't right so when I found my wife now Brittany it was just like oh my God like she and she got it the wildest [ __ ] I felt like Leo like I found the [ __ ] when she was 19. oh yeah you know what I'm saying Jerry Leo Lewis dude bring up Jerry Lee Lewis he was a pedophile but he was so excited about that dude but I'm just saying he was uh he married like a damn 12 year old oh no he didn't really yeah Jerry Lee Lewis what the [ __ ] I mean that kid is that wasn't me anyway no you have a great wife no did your wife just do a cameo in your new uh video yeah I had a video where she popped in I thought that was her man I watched that was cool yeah it's fun bro it's a nice Anthem thank you it's been uh it's been fun um just being a dad and being a husband and I also that's one thing that I love about getting older especially in hip-hop because hip-hop is such a young genre it turns 50 this year and um for me I love talking about being a father I love talking about aging you know because hip-hop and well pop music in general is all about like just young young young literally like 17 18 19 20. like all this [ __ ] but it's like bro I'm [ __ ] 33 man you know what I mean I be getting hemorrhoids and [ __ ] like I want to talk about like yeah you're an adult I want to talk about real stuff you know what it means to invest your money and be smart with things which your average kid's like I don't give a [ __ ] let's blow the money let's go to Vegas baby yeah but it's just like man I've done that and I've had that and that's cool but like it's I just love this stage of where I am and you talk about looking forward and in many ways I definitely do look forward but um so much of my career bro um you know 10 years ago it was always I could never be present because I was just like oh [ __ ] I'm broke like I'm like my roaches have fleas [ __ ] like I have nothing like you know what I mean like and so I wanted something I wanted something and so once you got a little more comfortable it made things easier yeah but yeah I'm still thinking about the future because it's like and this is when I started to get therapy because I mean I understand bro I remember you know I did I did a deal one year I made 30 million dollars wow [ __ ] I had a biggest panic attack on my basketball court Flex really yeah because I was like bro I was so poor my whole life EBT man I [ __ ] ate cereal with powdered milk bro okay like I didn't have anything like I had nothing I never had [ __ ] so then when I finally got it I like [ __ ] freaked out about it and then I started going to therapy and I was like what do I do what if I lose my money and the [ __ ] laughed at me I call it a [ __ ] she's my therapist she's amazing she's she's all screaming a down-ass [ __ ] no but she's extra down because the [ __ ] is Australian so she's down under yeah you know what I'm saying anyway um so she said she was like she was like first of all you're not gonna lose your money you're not a [ __ ] idiot she's like look at you you're making proper Investments you're you're you know you're taking care of yourself she said but if you did what would you do and I was like I'd [ __ ] grind my ass and she's like exactly you get it back so number one and I remember this is at a time when um I was like going through a lot mentally like a lot because I had the [ __ ] 1-800 song out you know what I mean it's like the biggest thing in the world and everywhere I go it's like suicide and people are like I tried to kill myself and my brother tried to kill himself and my sister killed herself and done and just everywhere I'm going it's like all the [ __ ] I'm like right if people don't know there was a song that uh Anthem that he did that was uh about suicide prevention and just about uh kind of loving yourself a little bit of evolutional Health yeah yeah mental health so go on so yeah so dealing with all that was like a lot um but for me like I had turned down a million dollar show in Australia and I've always wanted to go to Australia and it was literally it was a festival and I was going to headline the festival about 45 minutes a million dollars wow and I turned it down and people could be like oh you're [ __ ] crazy it's like bro I want to put a bullet in my head right like I didn't give a [ __ ] and then so I remember talking to my therapist and being like Oh you know people are gonna think I'm crazy and she goes what do you value do you value getting on a 22 hour flight in your mental state right now and going all the way to a country that you've never been that you want to go to but this isn't how you want to do that what do you value I was like I value resting and taking a [ __ ] break so I don't off myself and she said then do that and when discussing money and things with her I remember she goes she goes listen you're always stressing about money and you're a millionaire she goes you know I see a few billionaires you know what they tell me I say what she goes they say if only I had another billion and I'm like yo that's deep I need to let this [ __ ] go I made it and so around this time it's like 2018. around this time and then I [ __ ] grind it for like another two years but I realized man I was always looking that like so far man like you know when I started rapping I'm like okay I gotta put out a mixtape put out a mixtape okay I gotta get fans get fans okay I gotta start touring start touring okay I need a record deal get a record deal okay I got to put out um put out an album okay the second album can't flop second album does good okay I need to and then it's like I gotta go gold and then you go gold okay I gotta go platinum and then you go platinum [ __ ] I'm almost 10 times platinum on one [ __ ] song like it's just a crazy it's just it never ends and so once I made it when my son came out the puss and I realized I was like yo [ __ ] everything else I want to be as present as I can be so like me being here with you today it's why I did my research you know what I mean it's why I'm so happy and honored that you would let me on this show I can't believe bro I've been doing this [ __ ] for 10

the future like what that was like how that started or anything inside because my present was always horrible growing up yeah so it was always like I can't wait till I'm 18. yeah no I'll get the [ __ ] out of my house because my house was a war zone man you know what I'm saying like I said [ __ ] dramatic yeah cooking crack cooking it so how can you be present how can I be like oh yeah this

and that sort of thing right if things aren't proper if things aren't comfortable The receptors I think for accepting love and that sort of thing probably get kind of damaged as a child yeah are you able to feel that change once you had your own family once that I mean did or has that also been like a work in progress because that was a work in progress because uh my I I always was like one day I'm gonna have a family one day I'm gonna have a family and then I had my my the family that I do now and I realize holy [ __ ] you know my best friends who were driving me to shows and are my best friends to this day my producer who made all my Beats like these were my family this whole time as I met these people like really blood isn't like it's crazy you think like even think about this like I know it sounds so stupid but my wife's parents first of all I hit the jackpot they're [ __ ] Stoners and we smoke joints together oh really yeah they're the best anyway but like they're my family but we're not related like isn't that weird to think I mean I'm not even being funny I'm just saying like there's no we don't have the same blood right but my son is like that's my grandparents and that's my mom and that's my dad like even the premise of like a mother and a father like a husband and wife like obviously I know it sounds stupid I'm setting you up I'm giving you gold but I'm saying like they're not related but like as a child you look at you're like this is our family like ah like it's so weird to process that these two people had a whole life before it [ __ ] different people all types but they came together and it's just like that's my parents bro I never had that [ __ ] right I never had it so then when I you know I meet my wife and then we have a baby and then I'm like whoa like this connection is a real thing and even the connection that I have like with other members of her family like they really become my family and I'm like whoa that's weird because also even though I'm very close with a lot of them there's some that I'm not that close with but I'm so close with my homies I came up with so then I'm like well what is family it's a weird thing and I'm still trying to process it that's the biggest thing I I'm really enjoying about my 30s is the lack of like giving a [ __ ] about external [ __ ] and being able to really just like live my life they say that I feel more comfortable truly and my skin than ever before because I'll be I'll do videos and I'll be all funny and stupid yeah being like kind of just becoming more your person a personality right for sure than uh just a just a music or just seeing the part of your personality that does music I'm trying to be rap Secrets [ __ ] like I want to be like I could easily see that I'm gonna be hip hop [ __ ] Jimmy Fallon like that's what I want I just I don't know and I'll still always make music but this is it like I wanna you know come back and do this [ __ ] I want to go do other other shows I want you to come [ __ ] with me on my YouTube [ __ ] like I really just I just want to make people laugh and have fun and and educate along the way just like you're doing this is really great man for you to be able to crack a incest joke one second and then talk about serious mental health it's like dope man you walk this really fine line which is you should be proud of yourself well thanks for sucking this guy's dick right now but it's true well I can't help it but you know try to stay be alive and be you know do my best to just be myself it's hard a lot of times um I'm kind of intrigued on what you like since you were saying if you didn't have a family and so you I it takes somebody like that to go through your experience to be able to make but then you do something you make music and beats that bring people together which is interesting yeah because it's so interesting that some something that would somebody that didn't have something that brings makes them feel together would then have the propensity almost like a mirror or flat or an inverse of it would be able to bring people together it's really crazy how all that works it's the craziest part is is like you know I'm very I'm very known for you know like I said my positive lyrics like uplifting lyrics letting people know like it's gonna be all right keep persevering keep fighting no matter what you're going through but when I first was writing lyrics like that it was to me so because I didn't have anybody there I didn't have family I didn't have friends really to articulate and be like bro you're okay like you'll get through like when my mom's half naked and all [ __ ] bleeding and the cops are coming and dragging a [ __ ] down the stairs and you know just a just the wildest [ __ ] is happening nobody was there to say that so I'm writing these lyrics like don't worry whatever you're going through you'll get through it you know don't worry you know uh whatever is troubling your mind in time you're gonna find that it's all like whatever like and I would just get this and it would it was just released and then over years like and then once I kind of started popping and when I say popping up really I mean [ __ ] Beyond underground like internet days of DatPiff and free mixtapes and YouTube and [ __ ] like the beginning of Twitter and I started to see people be like man this song really resonated with me I was like what the [ __ ] and that's another reason why I even created the 1-800 song Because about suicide prevention is because so many people are like oh your music saved my life I'm like what and they're like nah for real like and then I did this tour for my second album where I uh I got a tour bus and literally did a fan tour from California to New York going to my fans houses eating dinner with them and their families playing them my album early and so many of them were saying yo your music saved my life and they would go into detail about how and why and then I was like whoa okay this isn't just whoa this is crazy and then that's when I decided to write the song 1-800 because I was like if I selfishly was writing these records for me and then they've affected you people to the point where what do you mean you people anyway to the point where you feel like I legitimately have affected you but I wasn't trying what could happen if I tried and that's what happened and then Congress wrote me a letter and was like it's [ __ ] statistics have proven that your your song has saved lives around the world this is wow yeah it's crazy [ __ ] that head of he was what'd you do with the letter um I got it I'm trying to frame I'm trying to frame it I want to get it framed like a like a doctorate like you know when you become a doctor and it's like on that like thick raised paper I want that [ __ ] that's one thing that gets hectic about like when your life gets busy is all the things you want to frame and have it framed yet it's like it was kind of like I mean I know it sounds crazy that's one of the toughest things there's a pile of about four things at home that I want to frame and one day I will I got a lot of pictures too with people like I've been so blessed to meet so many people and then I'll remember and I'll tell my assistant I'm like yo find that picture of me and Stevie Wonder like for real or get to joining me and Kobe or hey can you get the [ __ ] of the time I met Chappelle and he bought me a drink like I literally just all these Sarah Silverman like dude I'm so lucky to like me hey bro we're gonna take a picture after this I'm framing it what the [ __ ] thinking yeah it's going to my house bro do you um so being black and white is that that's got to be like the [ __ ] coolest I feel like but is it scary sometimes like do you feel black and white or do you just feel one thing yeah must be good I feel like me I know that sounds cliche I just I feel like me but I do um like if you walk past like a barbecue spot do you feel like part of you comes to the edge of your skin yeah you know what I'm saying like do you feel some sales kind of scoot over to it and if you walk past like a um a cop do you feel those same cells like kind of move to the 100 but the craziest part is is like because here here's here's a fact whether whether you [ __ ] like logic or not or whether you're like whatever it's like for I don't give a [ __ ] I'm not here to argue because you know there's people who's like well you don't you'll never understand what it's like to walk down the street as a black man and I'm like yo all right I want you to shut the [ __ ] up yeah because you'll never understand what it's like to walk down the street as a black man in a white man's body and it and then wait wait let me Shut the [ __ ] up why are we arguing yeah you're like Mrs Doubtfire but that's what I'm saying why hello why are we arguing in the first place what you what you're going through I'm not denying what you're going through [ __ ] all that [ __ ] so for me it's like yeah it's a crazy thing like yeah and I love it you know [ __ ] used to always be like oh you he talks about this all the time I'm like so the [ __ ] what man I don't give a [ __ ] I'm proud I like it you know what I mean you look at [ __ ] Twitter bio and there should be like black and proud [ __ ] I'm biracial I'm proud but I do feel I definitely code switch a lot you're familiar with this term uh-oh code switching is like if I was going into into like a [ __ ] interview or some [ __ ] I'm like well hello there sir yes I really like this job I I really appreciate that thank you so much oh excuse me I have one call [ __ ] what the [ __ ] man you got my [ __ ] what you know what I mean so it's like that it is a part of you it is almost like you kind of feel like like two different people but that's one thing in the culture as well it's like any anybody who's of the culture who meets me IRL not some [ __ ] anybody who [ __ ] really meets me shakes my hand they know what's up because it's not a thing why would it even be a thing it's not a thing it's only a thing on the internet it's only a thing on the internet like I've never met anybody and they're like no you're not you're not like because it's not a thing it's not a thing it's not a thing it's like I definitely love to let people know who I am so yeah when I meet somebody if they're like tell me about yourself first thing out of my [ __ ] mouth black dad white Mom Dad I grew up broke it's just it's it's my [ __ ] identity there's no identity crisis this is who the [ __ ] I am and I know well it's also it's a responsibility in a weird way as you get older it's like you become this piece of an important time when people are discussing stuff and they want to know what things feel like and they want to know like you know and some people that don't know how to relate like I like always was envious I always was envious of black kids growing up like I grew up in like a half and half neighborhood right and I was real envious of black kids because I mean this may sound crazy but I like they at least had an excuse for how people treated them and looked at them in a weird way and it's not an excuse but I understand they like and then it was like if you were poor and white it was like you just [ __ ] up somehow it was like how what the [ __ ] how did you [ __ ] up you know like you didn't that's like the white privilege thing which I agree with I think white Privileges and there's always more to it exactly there's always so much more to it it's like you're just talking in like a specific moment but I always was like man I feel it was because I felt sometimes a similar way that some of my black friends felt yeah but because you guys are of you're of the culture bro that's what I'm saying culture to me when I say of the culture I'm not talking about skin color I'm not talking about none of that [ __ ] it's like I grew up with Salvadorian kids and black kids and white kids and Asian homies and we were all from the same place we talked the same bro there was white home there was white people in our Clique and it'd be like 14 black dudes three white guys and in my biracial ass and all the white the white boys would say [ __ ] they do that's what they did they would say it because the black dudes are like hey say that [ __ ] set you down like that's the internet is a spray painted on my legs sometimes I remember what and I was like this is [ __ ] what the [ __ ] I don't want it this bad but yeah it's it's a it's a it's a crazy thing but that's what I mean of the culture is like you understand that plight of like you know uh just well I mean did you grow up poor yeah yeah so then growing up broke and and and and and longing four things and one thing and then having that connection so it's like damn you know like I never had the PlayStation right like I mean I did like later but I had like the like when everybody was on like the PS3 and [ __ ] I finally got my PlayStation yeah type [ __ ] so yeah yeah yeah but but that's that's a big thing I think um all this fighting on the internet of what is this or that because there's no like there's no voice there's no like ambassador of black people like you know what I mean or white people or this or Asian people like just because one black dude or white guy or says something it's like they don't [ __ ] speak for an entire race of people yeah let alone almost what you could consider like a denomination or just a a a a group of people in a specific place because also like racism in America is so different from racism in Europe or this or that or that uh like you know people have their different experiences with it in ways that we could never understand oh totally yeah yeah I could never understand what it was like to be what it's like to be something different than what I am you know I could try in moments you know I think one thing that I envied about black uh and it was mostly guys that I knew I didn't know a lot of black girls when I was a kid but um just their origin story they had like an origin story you know it felt like they had like a history and a purpose and like it sounds like we're talking about a [ __ ] Marvel movie what do you mean but that's what it felt like it was like it was like if I don't know black it just felt like they had like a they were coming from a place it was obvious that they were coming like making they had to make a comeback in a way oh yeah I was like what the [ __ ] where is this going yeah it's a hundred percent I mean right because they had like a [ __ ] like they had like a thing that everybody knew that was obvious and it was like I think I always envied that a little bit it was like I feel like why why would you envy because I feel some of these ways but uh Nobody Knows It by looking at me I get it but that's different but once again that isn't really so much of a race thing like even though what you're talking about yeah that's like [ __ ] 400 years of slavery and oppression and [ __ ] yeah 100 like that's some deep [ __ ] but what you're talking about is like the plight of man bro like you came up with these people in your own way though you you definitely don't have the same lineage or history right that goes into a lot of emotion confusion need for Education you know that black folk have about themselves um and just you know whether it would be uh you know someone in Latin culture as well experiencing their own thing so but aren't you what what's your father my father's from Nicaragua yeah but I've perceived mostly as white but I mean aren't you biracial yeah but I don't have a dual citizenship you know any decision [ __ ] [ __ ] DNA what you talking about DNA is your citizenship like you're yeah so you're mixed technically yeah so was your father light-skinned no he was dark skinned kinda welcome to the club [ __ ] what the [ __ ] you mean but that's what I mean so you but do you perceive yourself as white no people call us like uh my brother's real dark skinned and people would call us like uh uh like uh what do they call oh Puerto Ricans when I was growing up that was like the big thing that everybody called y'all Puerto Rican yeah they didn't have any Mexicans back then so for some reason some people are so important that's how I thought about Maryland there's like no Mexicans there's just a bunch of salvadorians yeah and I was just eating papooses all the time they're so fire but wait we had a group called whites against Mexicans actually in our town for a little bit but we didn't have any Mexicans so it was just like I think they kind of roughed up this Chinese kid once what the [ __ ] okay wait a second hold on so how do you perceive yourself or at least how did you growing up did you perceive yourself see myself as white because I think my dad was so old I was so embarrassed of anything to do with him that I didn't want to know about it or learn about it you know I mean my dad grew up in a village where people would eat dirt they didn't have anything to eat and they would eat dirt and get sick and die all the time I remember him telling me stuff about that um but I didn't care I I think I rejected him so much in a weird way because he was so much older that it was every time he was around even though I longed to like kind of know him more I think it was so embarrassing once I kind of became like of age where I knew what my friend the looks on their face isn't that so annoying too like no but not even [ __ ] those kids but just you that you were so young and that gets almost like imagine not to right but if I could be me now exactly and I would accept it and just talk about all the things that you could learn but it's all good you know what I mean that's that's that's life and and that that's where you uh where you stood and you were a kid you were being normal though it's not like you were like some piece of [ __ ] you know what I mean it's like you know you were just like dead like you know what I mean it's it was right it was normal yeah it was like dad dropped me off around the block like don't don't pull up so I get that um they had what was that or did you see the thing they had Zach if you can pull it up it was about they just had some kids that got in trouble they had a Salvadorian caretaker the only thing I'm talking about in Miami the second graders it was a black face incident that they had what the what yeah yeah we were talking about this or two or what are the two-year-olds yeah so there's a Miami preschool it's kind of getting some Flack because they put two-year-olds in like blackface for Black History Month what at least they gave them jobs and [ __ ] though I mean yo you're kidding no but here's what happened there's a Salvadorian can you find the people that run this preschool in Miami are from Argentina so they don't know the culture here as much oh I understand so this was Black History Month so they were just so they had these kids and they some of the white kids they wanted them to be able to be black and so and then you got these little innocent little kids that don't know what the [ __ ] is going on all the crazy is they blurt the kid's face out like oh yeah like that's gonna make it different that makes it look even worse it looks like 8-bit [ __ ] yo that's that's wild only black face I've ever really personally experience um is this Rolex I got oh gang yeah this [ __ ] is dope yeah it's actually in Japanese kanji too which is uh which is a Vibe is that a uh let me see it's from Tokyo oh dang that's nice huh thank you and is that stone inside of it what you mean what's in the inside of it Oh you mean like what is the what is it the black [ __ ] made out of I don't know it might be Onyx or something I don't [ __ ] know because this show yeah because well the um yeah the blackface stuff comes from like menstrual shows they had like I think it was like 200 150 years ago they had like shows where they wouldn't let black performers perform so they made them so they made white people they had them put black stuff on their face right so I think that's where a lot of the obviously the origins of people being against it you know that it makes people feel uncomfortable yeah I just wonder if at a certain point like if it's a two-year-old kid what the [ __ ] does he you know what it's like yeah but but a two-year-old kid ain't applying blackface to himself all right that's true there's an adult doing that like let's just be real no you know what I'm saying what the [ __ ] first of all what that's true where does this kid have accent access to paint or shoe polish like they was doing back in the day like where like it's no this is this is an adult now this specific thing it's like oh okay they were it was like a Latin situation they didn't know like it is what it is you know what I mean but besides that do you think there will ever be a time where it's like say a kid who loves you know Derrick Rose is his favorite athlete he's an eight-year-old he can Dr he can put on makeup if he wants he can darken up a little bit or Urban out a little bit to go out trick-or-treating you know what or he can like the urban out I mean he could get like Urban out I mean urban out right now yo you got where's the shoe polish that's Urban out what the [ __ ] I don't know I'm just saying do you no okay of course not you can't [ __ ] what the [ __ ] kind of [ __ ] is that you can't do that [ __ ] man now it the difference is though it's like if you're Robert Downey Jr I think that shit's hilarious like if you're if you're a [ __ ] actor it's a gig it's a job it's a bit you know you're [ __ ] Chappelle you're you're like what like it's [ __ ] if this is what you do right you know I mean because I'm gonna be real bro like like comedians I feel like I don't even yep there it is there it goes now don't get me wrong that's the most racist [ __ ] ever but that's why it's [ __ ] hilarious let's just be real anybody who's watched Tropic Thunder it's like you gotta understand they're actually making fun of the racism of Hollywood at the time by casting a white guy to play a black guy who's really another guy and a guy with another guy yeah survive survive like and that's just like man when I was 18 years old and I watched that I was like this is [ __ ] hilarious right um but it's I believe that the [ __ ] was done right it was tasteful it was this it was it was all I mean even when there's a moment in the movie when he's like a white character is talking to him as he's in blackface and he's like some some you people and he's like what do you mean you people and then and then the black home he's the actor he's like what the [ __ ] you mean that's funny bro that's funny and so question for you as a comedian like where do we draw the line because I feel like shit's easing up a bit and I think I think with the it I know we all know where it started Harvey Weinstein me too movement cancel culture like it became this crazy almost over correction but I'm happy it happened just because like there's a lot of [ __ ] pieces of [ __ ] in the industry that we're getting away with a lot of stuff now there's a big difference between like I made a little mistake or whatever and then just like straight up rape and things like that so it was I think it was really good that that happened but then you know yeah a hundred percent it was it was incredible that these women were given a voice and giving power and you know taking back power that was essentially stripped from them which is disgusting and that's something I've dealt uh seen the women in my life deal with personally so yeah I got that now fast forward you know a couple years and then you're just making jokes and [ __ ] like I saw this one girl they was trying to cancel this girl in high school I was watching you know h3h3 you ever yeah it's like yeah Ethan Klein yeah Ethan so like Ethan did this not bit but you know you know and he did this thing thing where he's talking about this this little white girl who's wearing a like a kimono prom dress and then everybody's like that's cultural appropriation like this girl's not allowed to wear a kimono she's not Japanese like all this [ __ ] right and I was just like God damn this is [ __ ] crazy because I'm like wearing a I'm like wearing a [ __ ] Komodo watching this [ __ ] because I because I went to Japan and I'm [ __ ] doing an album in Japan and I'm like where am I [ __ ] you know I think I'm turning in Japanese like I'm [ __ ] vibing it over there and I'm supporting the economy I'm buying it's a [ __ ] little Japanese woman who's like you know half the Dominic have this thank you very much and I'm like oh that's dope does that mean I'm culturally what the [ __ ] like I don't know now this is a hot take but I'm just simply saying that's kind of crazy you know what I mean yeah like she it wasn't like she was like straight traditional even even Nino but it was just like she was just like wearing a cute little a little thing and they was just trying to destroy this this girl so as a comedian how do you feel when people be really like did you see what happened to you know Troy Bond you know who Troy bond is uh um bring him up yo you don't know Troy Bond Troy Bond yo okay first of all Troy bond is the future of Comedy is he really he this kid yeah [ __ ] he's on he's on Tick Tock he's incredible and if you go to it you might be able to see it here uh if you go to his yeah keep scrolling down you should it's uh [ __ ] they're like I met him before he's a gay gentleman no he's not gay but uh he he does refer to himself as a Puerto Rican lesbian but he's actually black and white he made a joke about how he looks like looks like that uh yeah he looks like that killer remember who Jeffrey Ronnie Rodriguez or whatever oh the [ __ ] um yeah what was that guy the guy the [ __ ] you talking about the Zodiac no not the Zodiac I think it's Ronnie Rodriguez we go from Troy Bond dude Somebody's gotta kill bro I'll tell you this they uh yeah what the [ __ ] no that's not you're thinking Ramirez Ramirez Ronnie Ramirez you're thinking of Ramirez the [ __ ] whatever Ronnie Ramirez the Zodiac salesman or whatever but listen so if you I don't know if you have Tick Tock up there if you can go to tick tock or if somebody can try to get you this clip because I think it's really important that you show it on the show and the reason is is because so he's black and white okay I'm gonna be honest he he looks like he could he could be white or something else or you know he's kind of like yourself like ambiguous yeah and so he's doing this um this great set mm-hmm we'll find it we'll find it he's doing this great set and this girl screams at him and she's like that's so [ __ ] racist blah blah blah blah and she doesn't even know yeah that he's that he's mixed you get a lot of that in clubs these days so I'm just like why the [ __ ] would you go to the club to a comedy show you see the bill you know pretty much who's going to be there that night who's got time you know I've only ever been to a comedy club once we'll talk about that in a bit but what is that like well I think this is what's happened I think this is what's happened I think you have I don't think you have as much racism in the world as you did 25 years ago I really don't I think what you have these days you have a lot of division that happens from people's like online you have a lot of people that have marketed the past and it's great to be reminded by the past undeniably right we still have a lot of recovering to do from the past I think some cultures even genetically they have to work it will take time for their DNA to heal from traumas of the past no doubt but I think now you get a lot of the past marketed like packaged in the clips into like movies where you're constantly reminded of of like the [ __ ] up things of the past to the point where some people that just becomes their identity now so they don't have any real like human connection to it they just have this sort of like it's almost like I don't want to say it's an educational connection but it's just like oh I see this that's racist there's no I don't have any texture to it there's no like history to it for me it's just something that I see now online and I know that that's supposed to what's also crazy to me is the is the hit when there is history ties so for example I wrote this movie script a couple years ago called Jerry about a homeless comedian who tells jokes on Venice for a dollar okay and one night he's he's telling stand-up jokes all types of jokes he's telling black jokes white jokes gay jokes it's just being funny he's being himself okay Jerry and he makes a joke about I forget it now but it's something along the lines of like oh man could you imagine if like a South Central um blood had leukemia he would be like the illest uh blood of all time because it's a blood condition anyway it's a lot funnier with the wearer that I wrote it and in this in the uh in the crowd it took me a second yeah and the crowd um this woman who was laughing hysterically stops and starts heckling the man heckling the man heckling man and then she's just like how could you possibly say that and he doesn't even argue with her and his manager Mike um which is the character I'd like to play uh is like dude why didn't you say anything to that woman and he goes you know a lot of people tend to be Hypocrites she she's a white middle-aged white lady she wants to laugh at black jokes she wants to she's straight she wants to laugh at gay jokes he's like it's very apparent it's either her her mom her dad somebody died of a blood disease bro it was this or that and it was just really cool because I I've taken my own experience when writing that about what triggers people and what I've seen trigger people and I just think it's really kind of annoying that people like to pick and choose don't get me wrong you know it's like it's almost like if somebody was to make a Parkinson's joke you know I actually I made I made a joke um I I had a my mind you don't Parkinson's I don't but I'll tell you I'll tell you something it's actually wild so a gentleman named Chewie does all my tattoos I met him through track I saw him on your Instagram yeah yeah yeah yeah and so he asked me to give him a tattoo so he did that Metal Gear Solid when it took about six or seven hours exactly yeah you spent your time you care you just look that's a cool one actually it reminded me of that game too I love that game so Wu-Tang I have a Wu-Tang um tattoo right here and he was like I want you to give me a Wu-Tang tattoo and this is like five years ago and I jokingly I'm like y'all don't want to see that [ __ ] it looks like Michael J fox did it because it's all squiggly oh yeah bad off but I go I go don't worry I can make that joke it's kind of like saying the n-word and I was like because I'm black and I said because I have dystonia so uh dystonia I I have cervical dystonia I don't have a cervix cervical is uh it's your neck and basically my head shakes like this really yeah it goes like this like you got that remixing you've got that like it's crazy and so um I have to go get botox injections in my neck no yeah deep in my it's why my neck looks like such a young bad [ __ ] no they go deep in there it's why Botox was invented and so they go all the way in to weaken the muscle because my muscle I know bro it's [ __ ] trying to put you down when you do it no I do it I do it every three months I'm supposed to like my [ __ ] right now like running behind huh yeah it's shaking a little bit now so I gotta do it and you need to get over there but what I'm saying is he's like bro people die of Parkinson's disease you know Ryan Reynolds father passed away like he had to experience that so it's like when I make a joke like that um I think it's really how it's just it's just how you do it like that's a man's pain bro you know what I mean we all love Michael J fox [ __ ] Micah Smith fly man's Marty like we love Michael J fox I love Michael J fox and in no way would I ever try to hurt somebody this or that it that's honestly my pain that's like me like the fact that if I didn't have these shots in me right now or even my thumbs my thumbs [ __ ] shake like it's these things that that are insecure and that give me emotional pain and sometimes physical pain and in a way I used comedy in that moment to like cope and with a man that I can relate to to some degree not to that degree obviously and I just think it's kind of crazy that if you're a good comedian no if you're a [ __ ] great comedian you use pain and you use trauma such as Chappelle and your prior and so many great people to talk about the hard things and so I think I love Chappelle because no matter what the [ __ ] got hot takes like I did it I love great comedians because they will [ __ ] on black people white people Asian people straight people gay people Chinese every and they have us all laughing with us at each other like it's fun it used to be like that bro I mean it is with cats like you and who step out and they're like [ __ ] that and you say what you want because like the thing is is like I love Chappelle and I feel like the [ __ ] like damn near uncancelable I used to think Kanye was uncancelable I really believed it until Kanye and I love Kanye you know it's just like yo he's mentally he's ill you know and it's like I literally was like there's nothing he was wearing a white lives Matter t-shirts I'm like there's nothing Kanye West can do and he's doing snorkeling he did pictures of him snorkeling he did the two things that you don't do one of two one of two he didn't do the two things he did one of two things that you don't do that could get you canceled sex [ __ ] that you shouldn't be doing whether it's underage or this he did that no he didn't do that oh I said one of two so don't miss [ __ ] quote me now okay or [ __ ] be racist and he's but he was racing against Jews that's what really got him no I know 100 but I'm still saying tried every other race to be racist against I feel like yeah but I'm just no no no no I I think the the one there is something to be said about yeah it's just like bro that's a group of people just in general that are [ __ ] they they are killing in Hollywood like you know what I'm saying like yeah yeah like it's just a real in a great way cool whatever [ __ ] it good for them yeah but like why would you say not even that take that [ __ ] out of it right okay bro you're talking about you know Hitler was kind of cool right I think there's something he got addicted to something about pushing buttons I think that's what it was I agree I mean from the hat to all this other [ __ ] and it's like whatever man it's cool but I just that was a sad thing that was like such a hard thing to see because I'm just like man that's one that's the one thing like legitimate like hate like hate hate speech hate this hate that it's like bro you could have pretty much said anything but you backed Hitler like you can't do that yeah you can't back Hitler dude I mean even if he you know ever you know yeah you cannot do it yeah it's Hitler yeah I mean yeah it's Hitler it's like there's like four guys you can't back Hitler Satan Weinstein I think yeah definitely definitely that and uh and I don't know who else maybe that Wiley Coyote guy whichever one's the bad one on that um I love it but yeah I think that that was crazy but here's one thing that happened with the Kanye thing that also got weird is like if he's mentally unwell right do you think he's mentally unwell yes right so what a sir I don't think he's [ __ ] I don't think he's crazy right he may be mad he may have some different issues I think yeah I think he's bipolar and I think he's but he's mentally unwell I don't think he's like [ __ ] crazy like I'm not writing my man off I love this dude he's changed my life yeah I never even met him you know so anyway please I just want to make that very clear like I'm not hot take just trying to use Kanye's name not a [ __ ] Tick Tock oh I think yeah I wish Rihanna would have brought him out at halftime I think that would have been crazy wouldn't it yeah but you know her folks were like yeah also it's just like he did is that where he really needs to be right now on stage in front of the entire world right but but that's exactly what goes into my point I was gonna make is that or that I was gonna bring up is that at what point should the media stop putting some dude out there if they know he's mentally unwell the same media that has run in advertisements for like people are mentally unwell get help get help and then they're taking somebody even if that guy's making a clown of himself right if you know in your heart that part of him is not well and you continue to publicize him every day every moment everything he says like that's kind of sick it is but that's our culture that's what we live in man you know we love to see I I've even had it at a different scale of course but like just my rise like I was the underground Underdog everybody wants that [ __ ] Underdog to win and then when they win it's like oh he's killing it killing it but like they want you to fall yeah they really do that's in a movie it only works like that yeah and I've fallen but it's almost like perception like have I really Fallen like I'm [ __ ] I've made good Investments monetarily family yeah exactly so it's like but there is a thing where it's like oh he's whack now you know and it's like oh logic's whack and then you drop another album they're like Logics back yeah the logic's whack watch it back and then I'm just uh then this is where I've finally found this place where I'm like I give a [ __ ] logic's rich and happy like that that's all that matters um I could talk to you all day and I want to talk to you all day I gotta pee all right let's pee and we'll come back and do another half hour all right oh man yo how about P drips oh [ __ ] I feel like I used to shake it I don't own anymore I keep it I just let it go right into the pant nah man I gotta shake it a little bit but yeah you're right you're right it's just annoying but whatever P drips it's like anyway I how much do you sleep do you are you able to sleep fully through the night or you got to get up and pee well oh I P I get up every night 100 wow every night yeah because I'm hydrated like I love I drink a lot of water and I used to I mean I'm at the tail end of college because well I never went to college but I also that's the total attitude of somebody who never went okay I just mean like drinking what the [ __ ] alcohol hurt that statement of My Life alcohol 33 is like I'm at the tail end of college bruh like about time bruh yeah I never drank really or smoothly yeah my whole life until I was like 27 28. what so was that because your parents were addicts you think 100 yeah yeah without without doubt wow and then um because I was like I can't let this [ __ ] me like literally my friends would be like man just hit the weed I actually just released the um a video yesterday about this it's like an anime that is kind of a part of a trailer for This Album College Park that's dropping and anyway uh so I was just so scared that it would affect that and then when I made that 30 million I was like well I did it let's do Coke no I'm just kidding no I was like I did it okay cool and then I just I started to enjoy uh all I don't do anything hard and I don't judge anybody does but I do uh I just I love scotch and I love uh I Love Weed and I just started doing that and then I did it pretty pretty good and then like 2020 like through covid I was getting [ __ ] wrecked really yeah I mean there's nothing else to do I had my baby and whatever but I was like just hung over all the time for like two years I was like perpetually hungover because I never did it I never I never did it I finally did it but it wasn't like bro I actually have a song in this album you know and I go uh you know I wake up seven days a week and get the job done you know you know I'm always there for my wife and my son but at the end of the day I love to pour one more like two but occasionally three and it scares me not because I have a problem I'm the type of person if there's an issue then I'ma solve them it's more like seeing how this [ __ ] has destroyed life I look at my mom I look at my dad and it's just it's it's a it's a crazy thing man so I saw that um and I I do I get I get the job done I did my thing but now I'm just I'm at the tail end of it because I yeah I just and I say this to say like my whole sleep schedules changed because it just as a musician I used to be up till 5 30 in the morning wake up at 1pm I was saying that I was in bed with my wife the other day and it was two and I was like dude dude if this was two years ago it'd be 11 p.m for me right now it was two it was 2 p.m in the afternoon and so yeah when you make the 30 million what was they bought your catalog no that was a deal that I did I did a long-term attorney deal yeah wow yeah yeah and on top of that I re-upped with my deaf with Def Jam because now I'm independent but I re-up with Def Jam and they gave me some nice M's as well so it was all like within a week of each other oh yeah which is crazy did you get one eight ball even no yeah I've never done I've never done Coke really I've never done anything hard my God boy I'll [ __ ] do it for you all right I will if you need somebody to just tag me into so wait are you sober yeah I got 10 months right now wow so is it hard what's hard for me is if I think about women sometimes that's my trigger it's women it's affection that's my trigger that would make me do drugs and I don't drink because I'm afraid I might I would buy cocaine I don't have a drinking problem I don't even like drinking I don't like pizza I don't it's so dumb oh my God this feels a little bit because it feels almost kind of like not homoerotic but I feel like it's like you're Wild it almost feels like kind of like pervy like you're making your own weather and it feels like you're touching your wiener at the same time or whatever right but I don't think it like I don't like it doesn't uh it's bores me after a while it's like I don't want to be doing this I would rather do something else that I haven't done honestly that's how I feel because I quit I smoked cigarettes since I was 11. and I smoked cigarettes yeah I smoke cigarettes from 11. Baltimore National Anthem isn't it smoking [ __ ] cigarettes Newports Newports at that oh dude I would smoke cigarettes with my mom glass lung Bobby I would smoke cigarettes with my mother I remember when I was up I was 11 years old and I was like I'll never forget this I was watching Fresh Prince and I'm sitting on the carpet it's dirt dusty ass carpet there's two roaches [ __ ] each other my mom's in the in the kitchen making you know bologna and [ __ ] and I'm like Mom I gotta tell you something she's like what and I'm like you're not gonna like it and she's like oh my God did you get someone pregnant and I'm shooting ghost loads I'm 11. it's like no and I'm like no and she's like did you are you in trouble with the police and I was like no she was like are you doing drugs I'm like no and she's like oh my God what's next are you smoking cigarettes and I'm like [ __ ] you smoke what the [ __ ] so she's like yeah and then a week later like and which she didn't know and I told her this I was like [ __ ] for like the last like year as we've been walking to the bus stop I just you flick your [ __ ] and I just grab it yeah and then we would smoke together anyway so I did that from what a great scene in a movie or something you're seeing a young kid walk his mouth she's not even paying attention to him she's gonna know where else she flicks a cigarette he [ __ ] grabs and he just continues I should put that in something um yeah so I smoked till I was 25 and then I quit for three years like a secondhand son you know second hand um and then I quit last year because I then did the Vapes and you were smoking real cigarette you got into Vapes huh I got in a vape so I quit at 25 for three years and then at 28 I got into Vapes because of my buddy schwei [ __ ] [ __ ] and then um and then last year I went on tour with Wiz Khalifa and I was like I can't [ __ ] be smoking I gotta stop so I did it cold with turkey and bro I was like sweating bullets yeah and [ __ ] like jolting out of bed like jolting out of sleep it was it was crazy but it's like destroyed my anxiety like all that nicotine I didn't realize how much anxiety it was giving me that and then on top of [ __ ] being hungover and then so once I just really kicked back on the on the Alcohol stop the nicotine and just smoked a hell of a lot more weight I just feel great I [ __ ] ran two miles today before I got here nice dude it's been yeah I did some yoga before I came today Vibe I need to stretch but I do think that yeah that nicotine's so bad bro the hardest thing I've been having to do is quit vaping this is why I brought this up was because we you were talking about if you get drunk you might want to do an eight ball or something like that because it's like ah that those inhibitions kind of go out and you're like [ __ ] it let's go that's how I feel bro I was in the studio last night and I was like man I kind of want to I kind of want a cigarette like my friends are smoking cigarettes and everybody's vaping my [ __ ] new assistant Jaden he's he's just like he's vaping he's [ __ ] vaping and [ __ ] I'm like tired no no but I'm like I'm like what the [ __ ] and I stayed strong yeah because I remember the feeling of like I don't want to do this anymore like this [ __ ] sucks you know you just whether it's cigarettes or vaping and you just do it and do it and do it and then it's really just like Ugh like I'm not getting that hit anymore that thing yeah I'm just doing it's almost like I'm a [ __ ] robot or something the saddest thing for me to think about is when I leave here today what choice am I going to make am I going to get in my car and stop at The Vape Shop they don't even sell the ones I like anymore so now I'm down to doing some like third string Vape some [ __ ] you know it's like it's this Vape would never start for any team you know and I'm gonna but am I gonna go buy that you know and get like muffin ice or some [ __ ] [ __ ] I'd almost rather smoke a cigarette yeah because I'm gonna hit it two times and all I'm gonna do is I'm gonna feel so bad about myself how about when the juice is just like you ever get the juice where it's like in your mouth and [ __ ] and it's cool did you ever Jewel no I don't Jewel oh that was my [ __ ] I used to [ __ ] just [ __ ] Jewel that [ __ ] yeah this one's gross no Julie was just [ __ ] like crack

something like an energy or something Universe I'm like okay I asked those important questions because most people don't and then five years [ __ ] later they get in divorced because they never talked about them in the first place yeah so anyway nice [ __ ] rubbing a gemstone on her vulva but yeah they get weird like that so dude so you knew and how long after that did you get engaged well the crazy thing is super duper long story short I created this like fake release party for a mixtape called Bobby Tarantino 2 that just so happened to be on St Patrick's Day but it was really basically The Great Gatsby are you familiar with the Great Gatsby so I created this whole party just to invite this business yeah with all her all her friends and then she ends up bringing her boyfriend no yeah it was crazy so she brings her boyfriend and the dude comes in and he's like oh Roger can I have a picture with you and immediately I was like Swedish is that Swedish did I just do Sweden I think so no students like this yeah or is that more German I don't think whatever I'm not good with [ __ ] like if I do an Irish when I do editors sound kind of Jamaican at the same time I'm gonna do Irish man yeah anyway [ __ ] whatever bro long story short she she she didn't say with that guy because what did it take and were you lucky flirting with her what was happening um I flirted with her but she never flirted back wow that was that was beautiful yeah because I was like [ __ ] I want to take you on on a private helicopter to San Diego and [ __ ] at the party yeah I'm like playing I'm playing pool that's gangster yeah I wasn't like yo you want to go see my [ __ ] redhead collection oh [ __ ] what you mean murderer hey [ __ ] you want to go to private jet what the [ __ ] you're right I love it all right anyway right you're right but yeah I was definitely flirting with her a little bit but I was respectful I wasn't like [ __ ] this dweeb did it like it wasn't like right right and then she just like I I they just that happened she just saw a man I'm gonna be real she was dating no she was dating a boy they [ __ ] went to high school together and [ __ ] and then she saw a man I was like what's good and that's and that's a real thing it's like whatever eight months later we were engaged um she was she got I knocked her up and like may we were in Tokyo oh yeah when I when I bought that uh cultural appropriation kimono and um and I knocked her up we had a really bad fight and then yeah it was like so bad it was like the worst fight we've ever really had and then I shut that [ __ ] down I was like this is [ __ ] stupid we don't need to be doing this [ __ ] we need to respect each other and if we feel don't let animosity build don't this don't that but I told her the the real thing is she was pissed off because we're at some [ __ ] club in Japan everybody's wasted and um the woman who who led us through the door I was just like oh this is a pretty dress because I'm just I'm a gentleman like if I see a woman and that's just from being raised around women like oh nice earrings like and my wife knows me she gets it like but you don't think you'd low-key do it for some sort of a return no never never known yeah especially with women because for me women doesn't matter like she could be bad she could be not what you would call uh you know a bad [ __ ] like you know what I mean or whatever just just a normal looking whatever I don't know Library yeah let's keep it 100. the [ __ ] could be ugly or she could be [ __ ] a supermodel okay and I will be like oh I love your shoes or I'll be like oh right yeah I'll be like your hat yeah your nails are they gel is it gel is it acrylic right I don't give a [ __ ] I just like your arms yeah whatever anyway so she just got mad that as I said the [ __ ] had a nice dress oh yeah women will get upset about that and I was like don't you ever bring that [ __ ] to me ever [ __ ] again because I was like I would never [ __ ] do that I don't give a [ __ ] like this is not whatever and it was so stupid and then we argued and I knocked her up yeah dude if I'm arguing with somebody you gotta [ __ ] knock them up that's how most of us got in the world when you think about that yeah I mean look at my parents oh yeah they were hiding on crack and angry and screaming so you want kids well they made a good creation man do you want children I do want some children you know and I start to get to the point where it's like yeah I definitely want to have some children but also you can't hurry love man you got you know I like this girl and if it didn't work out and then I was in this other relationship and I couldn't commit and so I just gotta what if you got like the female equivalent of a sperm donor what is it I don't [ __ ] know a surrogate or some chick you could just knock up and be like here take my sperm and you just you select because women they do this they'll select they'll be like okay he's got to be chocolate six eight [ __ ] NBA player this that whatever and you can like pick what you want and then that woman could have a child herself so you could do the same thing you just get like some super bad gorgeous woman and what do you do drive you have to do you do sex with them or do you have to drive over there definitely not I don't I don't it's a little more professional than that you know what I mean you know you're not that would be like the most expensive craziest escort of all time it's like 100 Grand I think to do something like that to do what to get somebody to have your child that you don't know really in America yeah well it's like 80 in Mexico I think but you got to go down there that's going to cost you a couple G I wouldn't sweat it because like you're already you're still you still have like 30 years on when your dad made you so you got time you know what I mean like you got it well my my dad was 38 when my mother was born yeah but that's it's just it was different times though not even that it was different times it's just it's just like bro who gives a [ __ ] wasn't somebody they they were upset with Billy eilish and the guy from the neighborhood I don't know if you heard about this so Billy eilish you know she's younger they're like 12 years difference yeah but so what she's [ __ ] of age she can make her own decisions and we don't know what the [ __ ] we don't we're not in on their text message that they can be [ __ ] in love and happy yeah who are we just saying now I'd be different if like she was 17 or you know he was like I can't wait to knock the socks off that yeah that'd be a little weird he's like let me get that kitty Cooter oh no if he's texting that kind of [ __ ] then you got to go to jail um will you guys have any more children do you think or what do you mean my wife is currently pregnant with her oh you got back in there yeah with my second son what we're gonna name him Leo really yeah we're gonna name him Leo because my best friend so here's here's actually super quick the first thing I ever said to my wife was nice tattoo and she had a tattoo here that spelled Noel with two L's and she says oh it's in my grandmother's handwriting it's her middle name and I was like holy [ __ ] and both sets of her grandparents are in their high 80s living alone killing it probably still [ __ ] it's like they're killing yeah they're amazing and um so I actually got hurt mother's name middle name Grace um tattooed on me in her grandmother's name which is really cool but I say this to say that since her middle name is her grandmother's name she wanted her the second boy's middle name to be her father's name middle name okay so okay Kurt David is my father-in-law so our boy's name will be Leon David Hall but Leon David is my best friend's name Leon David rosalom who [ __ ] let me sleep in his basement when I was homeless didn't have anywhere to go and almost a year to the day I signed a Def Jam and we all moved to LA so I named him after my best friend Leon David and it's cool because he's after my best friend who also has the same middle name as my father-in-law and yeah we call him Liam it's a perfect circle Liam Leo Leo is a good name yeah I like it um lady killer Leo you know what I mean yeah it sounds like him he's got to probably be handsome if you're you I mean you've seen pretty handsome and your wife looks attractive that's all I see him handsome am I handsome or do I seem handsome I think you seem handsome as far as I'm gonna go dude yeah I think your answer has time to get tough yeah you're a handsome guy and you got great skin you're handsome thanks dude you got great skin yeah I'm just getting older though that's the only thing you know look at you what is the [ __ ] you talking about you got great skin you got time comes and get you look at your hair look at you what are you talking about you look good you look great oh dude I look like a home of stuffed in a non-homeless guy um one thing that's interesting about you I think you're I think I love what you're doing man I love the fact that you're kind of like you're not pivoting for music but you're adding to your ability to perform with also people seeing more of your personality 100 which I think is interesting you know especially coming from your own life and all the experiences you've had I think some people they only have what their music is but you there's so much I mean it's [ __ ] there's a lot to [ __ ] unpacked there I mean there's so many sentences you said during this chat that I could be like what about this what about this so I think there's going to be a lot of like um just breadth of like not only knowledge but just like sharing of experiences that you've had or being able to relate to people it's probably going to be a big part of your future you know so I think it's cool man that people are getting to know you more and that you're allowing that to happen because I think um there's probably a need for that in the world you know because a lot of people don't have the experience that you've had you know yeah man I just I I just uh I kind of see this as the the second chapter of my career you know or second act if you will of my career and yeah the music is so therapeutic I'll always do it I love it it's like I it's so easy for me to do it you know I was on vacation a couple weeks ago and I made 37 beats in a day damn on vacation I woke up I was just in bed and then played with my son and then put him down for a nap and finished my 37 for the day like I don't know I just love it and it's amazing but this [ __ ] I live on this because like I used to really be so jealous of comedians because I'm like these [ __ ] [ __ ] especially the greats oh yeah they go out on stage they're themselves and all they need is a [ __ ] microphone I gotta go out there I gotta have [ __ ] lasers and big screens and kids on Molly in the back and everyone's like oh my God and that's why all my when I when I do go out on tour because I'm definitely torn for this I'm stripping it down I've been in arenas for like [ __ ] six years I don't want to [ __ ] do Arenas I want to do theaters three to seven thousand cat [ __ ] theaters simple backdrop the shittiest lighting show and it's gonna be about me as a [ __ ] MC doing my thing but what I'm saying is here this being me uh is the best thing I know how to do and be so even when I do rap there's still some personification of like yeah but I'm like Logic the the rapper this is the side of me that's rapping or the side of me that's got to be super like here I can just be I can be me I can be funny we can talk we can like do I could literally do this all [ __ ] day right the fact that's letting me know that this is where my future is is going especially on YouTube and social media and I'm making a serious serious investment so for all my fans who are watching let me just tell y'all y'all I'm spending [ __ ] a [ __ ] ton of money to do the YouTube and the green screen videos and the trap and all this other stuff and and that's cool man I love it I went to your channel man I watched a few videos and I liked it I was like oh I just feel like I'm getting to know him it's engaging it's different from the you know his history as a musician and also I think it's like um you know when you grow up in a place with a lot of chaos and a lot of like trying to kind of trauma which is a buzzword that people use these days but when you grow up in that environment you don't really get a chance to settle down sometimes till you're you're almost a late bloomer in some ways in life where you don't get a chance to kind of you know it takes a time for things to settle it's like Michael Jackson imagine how Justin Bieber must feel it's a real thing like for kids who never like really got to have a childhood you know yeah and had a childhood in front of the whole world like Bro think about some [ __ ] that you've done or said that you wouldn't even want to say publicly like that would totally get you canceled because you were just a normal human being who maybe said a wrong joke or there's a like as a kid like as kids like we all say and do dumb [ __ ] I don't give a [ __ ] who you are we're humans well there's two black-faced kids dude exactly but that's what I mean it's like we've all done something yeah [Laughter] people you think 20 years from now people are like are you little Eddie is this you like what the [ __ ] I think it's really funny though how it's like a whole not bit I almost said bit we did the bit but it's like a whole uh thing on blackface but they don't show the black face oh no like why would you blur it out it's almost like Asian porn yeah where you blur it's like what's the point oh they blow out the faces yeah yeah I haven't seen that I mean I guess maybe it's like because that's somebody's child I don't know but it's it's just almost like hey here's here's a here's a write-up on this thing and then you go because you want to see it but you can't see it see it how you gonna see blackface when the face is blurred well I mean it's like and also like at least um if the kids are gonna do it let them [ __ ] do it or is that the right take or not maybe not so what I'm trying to say is [ __ ] no one of them was a cop and one of them construction worker would you mean one of them what does that mean I'm just saying one of them um dude congrats on the new album it comes out March uh March no February 24th it's called College Park okay yeah uh it comes out February 24th it's called College Park um thanks so much dude yeah I'd love to chat again sometime yeah for sure I it'd be cool you know come by every once in a while yeah and I want to make my rounds too man any any homies are different people that you know that you think it'd be fun to [ __ ] with that tiger belly have you been on there oh yeah I want to do it all man so like let me know you know I want to [ __ ] with whoever I'll think of some great ones man all right yo make sure you check out Troy Bond okay I'm telling you man the kid he's really special you know it's almost like when I first [ __ ] met uh Pete Davidson we used to hang all the time and I just I was like oh yeah this dude's out of here really it's that feeling yeah it just felt like he had just like a unique energy yeah and he does and he's so he's I mean like he says he looks like a Puerto Rican lesbian like it's hilarious yeah yeah a lot of people thought he was Brittany Greiner remember a couple months ago there was a lot of you bring that up honestly Pete Davis and Brittany Greiner dude Brittany Greiner was at the I went to the golf this past week and I was in Phoenix Brittany Greiner was there I had a chance to meet her and I had to do something for a buddy dude I would have loved to be like yo what was what's that like wait this is a real thing yeah this is happening it's a doppelganger oh it's totally in that one right there though yeah a lot of people thought that was me Davidson when they traded for Russia or whatever dude here's a crazy thing that I heard what from some like um I was at like a party and they had some Israeli guys there and they said that they the reason Brittany Griner got busted or got she was over there there's like a Russian Czar or whatever that pays women to come play basketball topless over there and that's what she was doing over there in the first place because people no one asked like what was she even doing in Russia in the first place oh I don't know if that's true but it was real interesting but she just got a haircut almost got to meet her at the golf tournament you have a favorite football team I [ __ ] hate Sports I'm trying to get into it I just died oh my [ __ ] it man it's not that I hate it it's just like I'm just [ __ ] never I mean I love skateboarding you know what I mean that's a sport yeah I used to do that [ __ ] until I was like 20 years old like really obsessed yeah I'm actually going to have dinner with Paul Rodriguez tonight one of the greatest skateboarders of [ __ ] all time yeah I just actually I was doing I was doing this interview with this cat named Vic Blends yeah dude I see him I follow him on Tick Tock he's super dope and I did an interview with him and I won't I won't I won't give that away but it was it was really it was really special and um anyway I ended up meeting Paul Rodriguez so that's okay dude well it sounds like you have a lot of new stuff going on in your life man thanks for coming in and sharing it with us man thanks for being so cool and um you know I'm I'm glad that You're Sober thanks man yeah and yeah I feel pretty good about it it's a little bit yeah I feel like it's the only way I can do things now kind of what do you mean I don't know if I was [ __ ] up if I'd be able to do anything well I mean were you [ __ ] up I mean look at you no but it's just always the fear of being that I don't know if I go out what tomorrow what I could be like tomorrow I don't want to risk that I'm not going to be able to be here with you I love how honest you are man and that's how I feel I I honestly obviously I know we should be wrapping up here but I just want to say like how long had you done hard drugs I think if somebody had something I would do it so I didn't go around a lot of people that had it but if somebody had a little something on it I would do it you know I met a dude at a laundromat one time and did some damn LSD dude which left all my [ __ ] clothes in there and [ __ ] left what's your what's your drug of choice probably cocaine yeah I would say what does it feel like if I had to guess I would say cocaine what's it like let me think I like cocaine because it makes me feel exactly how I want to immediately like having a beer it's like hey I gotta talk to Patrick or Ricky you know what I'm saying if I have cocaine dude I get to go home [ __ ] hold on to my [ __ ] wiener and be scared and wait what yeah that's what you do dude if you're doing much cocaine at your house you hold on to your [ __ ] wiener and you be scared and then you hope that you'll live but you don't know if you will are you [ __ ] serious yeah and what do you like that feeling do you like it I think there's a part of me that relates to that feeling so much oh yeah but that just sounds like desperation and all that sounds like [ __ ] childhood trauma yeah agreed I think it just it just attaches to that old [ __ ] I couldn't imagine you on cocaine so like have you how many times have you ever been on cocaine while you were doing the show no no no I couldn't but I couldn't imagine you're already so like I'd be so scared you're super chill like this is what's crazy it's like you're chill but animated at the same time and I feel like if you're on cocaine like you would explode oh I would be looking at porn on my phone oh my God and I'd be pretending I wasn't that'd be the tough part that I would drive and do cocaine and be looking at like escort just was this all just tragic and I think I didn't like but I think I liked cocaine because I was like I want to feel I don't want there to be any ambiguity about how I want to feel I want to feel how I want to feel right now yeah but you're talking about grabbing your wiener and freaking out are you serious I mean I'm 100 serious what do you like about it though the feeling like what because I'm just curious like what does it it gave you an excuse to be a pho it gave you an excuse to grab your wiener oh shut the [ __ ] up what are you talking about that's what I'm telling you man no man you do blow right that's how I imagine it all right all right you're [ __ ] you're in the Hollywood Hills you got six [ __ ] with you you know what I'm talking about you're [ __ ] driving in a drop top Coop and you [ __ ] do of mine and you [ __ ] feel Invincible that's what I think cocaine is you're describing it as like that does not sound fun that does not sound [ __ ] fun at all man I'm definitely never doing cocaine now [ __ ] thank you all right good interview [ __ ] yeah [Music] if I must be Cornerstone oh but when I reach that ground I'll share this piece of my life now I can feel it in my bones but it's gonna take
