SPEAKER_10

Nah, they don't make music songs.

SPEAKER_17

Oh, okay. Even worse. This is like this is like when when you break up with an artist and shit, they get to making them love songs, them heartbreak songs, and you can't even do nothing about it. You just gotta listen to it. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_03

You just gotta see them everywhere. Everywhere. Speaking of seeing uh the the diss songs and shit, that that makes me think of uh the past mad static. Yeah, the homie.

SPEAKER_17

It's like if you ever you ever break her heart, the whole city on your ass.

SPEAKER_16

Let's go.

SPEAKER_03

She's a prominent voice in the El Miwa scene, often collaborating on projects that celebrate Southside culture, lowriders, and hometown activism. It's a pleasure to sit across from the one and only Ichalita MKE.

SPEAKER_10

Hi. That was a banger intro.

SPEAKER_17

Have you feeling like, okay, you can leave out of here? Like you heard what you said. You heard what you said, bro. Activism, all that all the culture shit that's neat. Yeah, she in it. She 10 toes out here. You really are. You really are. And uh, you've come a long way from the first time I met you. So I met you at your move and just randomly, I just I just randomly showed up to like I was in a volunteer or anything. I just went to go show love, and you just so happened to be in there. And uh, I forgot who it was, it might have been Describe. He was like, Oh, you know, this is heck, he does it. I was like, Yeah, whatever. And he was like, No, she cold. And then like we started playing beats, and you just started like, I got this right here, and then you just started rapping. I'm like, Oh shit. And he was like, Oh, I got this too. Oh, and I got this too. And I'm like, Oh shit, she got and it was all fire though. And I'm like, Okay, and then I see you perform on uh like a Facebook video you had posted and you went perform, and you was doing that fucking I don't know what that dance is called. What's that called? Like when you be breaking that weapon, yeah. Okay, yeah. So when you be doing that, I was like, Oh shit. So you already are natural on stage for sure. Like you're bright on stage, like when you're performing, like just right now. I could tell as soon as it's time to uh get your voice going and perform, you like are on point with that shit. You you definitely tell you you put your uh your hard, like your work towards it, you know what I mean? Your heart towards it.

SPEAKER_10

So thank you.

SPEAKER_17

But yeah, so you come a long way from that shit. That's crazy to have you sit here and just do that whole record right there. That was one one shot, y'all. You did a sound check for like four bars, and that was one shot, bro. It took me like four times to do line fan.

SPEAKER_03

Every time I've seen you perform just the clarity, um the enunciation, you know, the I've never heard you perform with like background vocals or anything like that. You're just like beat and you're vocals, you know, and it's always like flawless. You know, I was just telling you before the um before we actually started recording, like it's almost as if like you know, like you're filled with another spirit as you know, you go on stage. You know, it's just like that higher you takes over and you just forget about, you know, like the normal um, you know, because people judge themselves a lot, you know. And I know as artists, you know, we probably feel the same way, you know, like you know, you get those nervous jitters before you go on stage or something like that. And sometimes that can last through a performance, you know, or like you're just overthinking. But like every time I've seen you perform, it's like you're not even thinking about that shit. You're just like in the moment. Yeah, for the world. You just yeah, like you're like he said, you you be dancing on stage, like the voice is just clear, you know, and you just express that right here, you know. As you're going through the hook, you you're like hitting riffs and shit. Like, yeah, I'm like, God damn, this is fucking perfection right now. This is crazy. Thank you.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, and like the fact that your hooks, like the first part of her hooks, were very uh they were like they match pretty good. Like for you to rap in between and then come back and make that sound still, that's man. Shut yeah, she's like, Shout out to the performances, bro. That people uh often overlook that aspect of being a musician and an artist. And when you rap and shit, they just be like, Oh, well, you could be you could be a good rapper and be a trash performer, possibly, if your music is super dope. But when you get on that stage and you dope perform, bro, shout out to the dope performances, bro, because that shit matters 100x, bro. It matters, fam. So, how you feeling today?

SPEAKER_10

I'm feeling pretty good. I had a photo shoot earlier, so it was it was, I guess, a little warm-up to calm my nerves.

SPEAKER_17

Okay, that's what's up. Yeah, you have yeah, you have some superstar shit going on.

SPEAKER_03

No, she stays um, yeah, she stays active. I love the fact that like you're always um posting like new photo shoots or like uh just different new things that you're doing. Like you you're very much um utilizing the social media era very well, you know.

SPEAKER_10

Um it's hard to stay consistent because I'm like, oh, will this get enough traction? Will this get enough um like publicity? But now I'm starting to realize, thanks to my mom, that I just have to keep pushing out, pushing out content because that's how I'm gonna be seen. Um so shout out to my mom, Dominga. Um, love you. Um, she's actually at home right now cooking. Um, it's my brother's birthday. Happy birthday, little brother.

SPEAKER_17

We on the way, no need some cake.

SPEAKER_10

She's making it.

SPEAKER_17

See what I'm saying? On the way. That's what I was talking about. She's making some good stuff, I bet.

SPEAKER_10

So yeah. Um, but yeah, I appreciate all the love that I get. Much more content coming soon. I'm also starting to take up modeling more seriously. So um, yeah, a bunch of photographers have started to hit me up for the summer, so I'm so excited.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's what's up.

SPEAKER_17

So I don't want to encroach, I didn't check the questions this week, but that's my fault.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't send them out like I usually do because I've been prepping for the beat battle shit.

SPEAKER_17

So like I said, I didn't send it out in advance. I just don't want to in case you ask this. Uh the style, talk about that. Like that's just I know, I know it's cultural, but like what what it means to you, and like did you always dress like that, or did you kind of grow up and see what the culture was and kind of go into it? Um because you have a a super super unique style. Obviously, you know that.

SPEAKER_10

Um, see, I've I've grown up with the culture. I've always been taught by my grandparents to honor the fact that I am Chicano, to honor the fact that I'm Chicana and to really keep in my mind that I am Mexican American. I there there's a phrase know it is actually that yeah, like you're not from there and you're not from here. But my grandparents always have it engraved in my head that I am from there and I'm from here. I'm as much Mexican as I am American and I'm as much American as I am Mexican.

SPEAKER_05

That's cool.

SPEAKER_10

Um, and my my grandparents have grown up with the culture as well, Chicano culture in Texas, they're for they're protejanos and um my grandpa was actually a Pachuco.

SPEAKER_17

So explain what that is real quick.

SPEAKER_10

So Apachuco, Zutsut, um Okay, Zutsuots. Um and Zutsu, if for those who don't know what Apachuco is, during in the 30s to 50s there were the Zutsu riots in California. Um it was during the pre-naturalization period of Mexicans and Mexican Americans. Um the government did a lot of BS towards the Gigano community and make Me Comunidad Mexicana. And it was just a big protest and they would be decked out, all Chris up. Um just a little, I guess, a picture of what a bachuco is. Shout out to my padrino um El Miruas, Aerogramma. He he's always represent representando the Bachuco stilo, all crisp, um independent, all all that jazz. Um but yeah, my style I try to decriminalize and destigmatize Chicano culture. Um there's a very big difference with Cholismo and Chicanismo, and I feel like it is from about from my ancestors to make sure that our culture isn't criminalized further.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Let's go. Yeah, I definitely fuck with that. Um side note, Miloas, we coming for that interview, bro.

SPEAKER_17

He was supposed to be a good idea. No bullshit. And that's that's why I asked the question because uh, you know, his kids, the way he has his kids, I was just wondering like maybe that was your case too. Like, because you know, he he has his kids in that shit already since they was babies.

SPEAKER_03

So I'm like, pretty much all they know.

SPEAKER_17

You know what I mean? So that's why I was that's why I asked that question, you know. So shout out to Milwaukee. That's why I was like, I wonder if each elite thought kind of was the same way. Cause you know, like for me, I grew up I knew you know the Puerto Rican stuff and everything. You know, I'm Puerto Rican, I'm half Peruvian, too. I didn't know too much about Peru, but I grew up American as hell, so I didn't never never really, you know, and Puerto Ricans were kind of forced pigeonholed into being American citizens, you know what I mean? So as I grew up, I kind of embrace it more now. You know what I mean? I I like I when I was your age, I wasn't fully into being like, oh, I'm Bodigwah and this is the history, and this is I wasn't thinking about that. I was just doing whatever people were doing here, you know what I mean? So the the fact that you're so well versed to know that, that's why I asked that question, because sometimes people just grow up and they're like, oh well this is this is me, and then they lean into it, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_10

So there's a there's a lot of people my age that they're proud to be where they are, but they're aren't they aren't as educated on the history of why things are the way they are in the culture. And I feel like that's also another reason why I put on so hard, but the reason I do is so that more of our young ones can realize how much more powerful their culture is.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and not only young ones, like because I I'm more along the lines with you, like I'm half Mexican myself, and um through my mother's side, you know, but like growing up, we grew up very Mexican, but it we didn't we weren't like taught like a deep culture, you know what I'm saying? And like this is you know, things that happen in certain time zones and stuff like that. And I didn't grow up knowing my grandparents, you know, they passed before, you know, I was like old enough to really have a relationship with them. Um so a lot and then you know, you in the 80s and 90s, early 90s, you got like the drug echo epidemic, you know, where like crack and coke and all that is like really prevalent. So it's like a lot of adults, they were working, but they were also doing drugs, so they weren't like taking time to like you know, um teach the culture, you know, especially if you're like um lower class south side citizen, you know, like it just wasn't something that people were focused on, you know. So I I grew up just knowing the Southside streets, knowing a little bit about my culture and you know what I'd see going to L Ray and Boys and Girls Club and then whatever Latino friends that I had. Um, but you know, my stepdad, he's Puerto Rican, so it's like I grew up knowing both Puerto Rican and Mexican culture, but like my mom being with a Puerto Rican man, she embraced the Puerto Rican culture as well because she had to learn how to cook for him and how to do things that he liked for about his culture, you know, so it's just like wasn't really um ingrained, you know. And then once I went into my teenage years, um my uncle Rico, he was the one that got me into like low riding and he would take us out to the lowrider shows, and um that's when I really learned about like Mexican culture, you know, when I was like a teenager, because he was my uncle Rico's like Mexican to the core, like he loves being Mexican. So I'm like, you know, that's where my love for my culture came from. You know, it's probably him. Um so what you're doing is not only for younger people, but like, you know, you just taught me some shit. You know, so you know, I I would definitely encourage that and say keep going with it because you probably teaching a lot of people who are older than you as well, and you're an example of what we can, you know, look into to teach the generations, you know, past and present.

SPEAKER_17

And it matters, it matters to know what what happened and what could happen. Uh you won't be able to ever stop some bullshit from happening if you never knew that it happened before. Yeah. So what you just said about the uh zoosuit riots and all that, I did know about that. And it's like when you find out about shit like that, it's like if if you don't know that, and you got a whole community of Mexican people who don't know that, they could do that shit again, and you'll never know where it came from. You just be like, Oh, I can't believe they're doing this. I can, you know what I mean? Yeah, I've seen it coming, it's happened before, you know what I mean? So it's like, but y'all, you you're really well versed in that, and you you you surprise me, no bullshit.

SPEAKER_16

When she just said all that, I was like, oh shit, you know, good job.

SPEAKER_03

Like, I've I've heard about the zoot suit stuff and I've watched like some videos and stuff about it, but like I don't think I've crossed too many people that could just like off the top of the dome, just hit hit us with the time, but uh, you know the the uh decades and everything, right? Because if you ask me, I'm like, shit, I know about it. I know police used to fucking beat people up because when they seen them in the zoo suits, and that was like a uh kind of like a uh symbol of their pride, like we're not gonna let you fucking take this from us, you know. Same thing with the lowriders, you know, like when they would see them slamming their lowriders, they would fucking, you know, that's why they would lift their cars up so they could, you know, skate past the police, and then right as soon as they fucking, you know, skate past the police take that bitch back down, you know. So, but um one thing that I wanted to talk about is the uh it's been floating around um the social medias is the El Bario MKE coloring book. You know, and the uh the picture that you got on there, what's that feeling like?

SPEAKER_10

Oh, it wow, it feels surreal. Um like I've recently had people like reaching out to me saying that I'm like an inspiration for them and that I'm representing them as Milaki Chicanos, Moaki Chicanas, and I guess they've also told me that the coloring book is a testament to the work that I'm doing. Yeah, and like I feel honored. Shout out to Carlos Herada. Thank you for putting me in that coloring book.

SPEAKER_16

Like let's go.

SPEAKER_10

I it's so real. Like I can't even put it into words how like how honored I am to be part of it. Like I love being from Milwaukee. Right.

SPEAKER_03

Um Yeah, it's just wow, like no, it's I feel the same way because you know there's a you on there too, but there's a page where me and GP on there. You're on there too?

SPEAKER_17

I don't know. I didn't I didn't check, nobody said that. I ordered the book to find it. Yeah, so but I did get a homies, but I got it like the last round, like right before he was about to stop. Yeah, I was like, I gotta be on there. Fuck that. I gotta be the only I'm I don't know if I'm the only Puerto Rican on there, but I gotta be on there, bro. You know, I gotta be a part of that.

SPEAKER_03

But yeah, like growing up, I'd have never thought I'd be in the coloring book. Me too.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, that's crazy. That's crazy. You know, like when I see y'all, when I seen the pictures of both of y'all on there, I'm like, that's crazy. Yeah, like you could really color this. I was telling them I need my cut.

SPEAKER_10

You know I'm like, people are gonna color me? Like, wow.

SPEAKER_03

And that's facts, is you know, you you definitely have you know, you're you're the look when when people think of like what a chola is and how they look, and you know, you you're definitely you come to mind easily, you know what I'm saying? You have the whole structure, the look, the dress, the vibe, like everything about you is just like right on point with it.

SPEAKER_17

You live it, right? I know motherfuckers. And it's not forced. Growing up, I remember fucking seeing people try to do that shit that you know they were like like white girls and shit. And I'm like, and they be trying to, you know, they be they they gotta they gotta go out their way to do it, though. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, they're forcing it.

SPEAKER_17

You know, when you go home, you eating fucking mashed potatoes and shit, nigga. You're not fucking you're not living this shit, bro. Yeah, and that goes back to your mashed potatoes.

SPEAKER_10

Like there's a lot of people who Yes, they dress the part, but they don't advocate for the part. Um and I know a bunch of people who say they're proud to be Chicano, but then end up either voting against other people or um not even stepping out and making a voice for their people at a protest and even signing a simple position like if you wanna rep the culture then act up, you know?

SPEAKER_17

So Yeah step up, fam.

SPEAKER_03

I feel you. No, that's facts. I mean No, I feel you, um another thing we see you a lot in the lowrider culture. Do you have a lowrider that you favor? You know, would would you ever own a lowrider?

SPEAKER_10

Is there like a a dream lowrider that you Yes, I want a 1964 Chev Chevy Impala convertible. Okay. Um but there yeah, there's a few lowriders that I've like I post up more with than others. Um I guess one, obviously the Padrino's low rider. 35. Um the 35 bomb um bomb. Um such a beautiful, such a beautiful writer. And then um my madrina Ladonia, she has an Apollo too. It's a beautiful like I don't know how to describe the color.

SPEAKER_03

I don't think you would say it's like a champagne or like a champagne, yeah, champagne. Like a light, yeah. Like a almost like a tan.

SPEAKER_10

It's really pretty.

SPEAKER_03

Fucking beautiful gold, like a tannish gold.

SPEAKER_10

And then there's another one. It's owned by one of the members of Lo Shavies. It's a it's a bunch of different colours. Like it's a lot of like geometrical figures and it's like different colors. Um It reminds me of a pride flag, and I'm like, yes. And then um Do you guys know who Coop is? Yeah, I think is Lolo too. Beautiful cards, I guess. Like since I posted up with them. And also Chacho's lower too. Yeah. Um post it up more with. Um the goal is to own a Lolo.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, let's go.

SPEAKER_10

With switches, probably not airbags, but switches, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It's a um it's an expensive game. Just but keep keep on the trajectory that you're going. And I mean you got you got the connections too, you know, your padrino and you know, just family, you know, they know a lot. So and you know a lot of the car community as well. You know, it's uh it's always a good thing to before you get into the car community, know the people in it. That way, once you get in it, it makes it easier to navigate and to, you know, if you got questions and fixing stuff, it it makes it easier, you know. And that's just speaking from experience. Like before I got Milo riders, um, I used to uh work with uh Juan from the Uso Card Club, and he's the one that taught me how to do window tinting and everything. Shout out to Superior Window 10. Uh that's where I began that journey. Um and just, you know, learning the culture and the lifestyle from them like more closely and like more intimate, you know, is definitely helped me leaps and bounds, you know, because it if I would have got into low riding without that, it it would have, you know, I probably would have been one of those dudes who got a lowrider and then a year or two later ended up selling it because I didn't know how to do things with it, you know. So it definitely helps having that, uh, those direct connections.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, and then um there's a lot of people who like have beautiful cars, but then they don't end up doing anything with it, and then they sell it for like a price that's not even valid. And like it just makes me sad. I'm like, work on it. So much it's hard, man.

SPEAKER_03

It's a it's a fucking it's a hard lifestyle, you know. Like I see a lot of times like on social media, people uh, you know, oh drive your shit, drive, and I'm like, that's uh it's all good in theory, but like it's expensive. Like every time you take that motherfucker out, something break, you know what I'm saying? And then it's like, you know, like me, I own a business. Uh a lot of the people who own uh their low riders own businesses and stuff like that, and that's usually how they can afford them. But you know, when you own a business, you just can't be closing down all the time, you know what I'm saying? Because the the business pays for the expenses of doing, you know, the fun, you know. So, and you know, it's just and then once you if you start getting more than one of them, oh god, like that's that's when you know that shit. It's like uh I saw this um YouTube video, and this dude, he's like, he's got a fucking fag fat ass stack of money, and he's like, Yeah, so this is what owning a low rider is like, and then he's like, Oh, I need this part, and he fucking throws the money in the fire, and he's like, Oh, I need this part.

SPEAKER_10

It's like a meme type video, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And he's just fucking by the end of the thing, his stack's like probably this big, and all the money's just fucking burning in the fire, you know. That's what it feels like.

SPEAKER_17

I'd be like, damn, like that's why I've never gotten into anything like that. Cars. I'm like, bro, I'm not can't. I just want a nice car to drive, bro.

SPEAKER_03

Like my Buick, I do I would do one of Lowrider, listen. I spent 11 grand just on the motor for my Buick. Like, you know, that's that's more than a lot of motherfuckers even put into their lowriders, you know. So, and then I put in another six grand for the paint job, and that was just like a bare minimum paint job, you know. And then I still gotta do the interior, you know, and it's like you wanna take the car out to you know be seen in it, but you also don't want to see be seen in it before it's ready, you know what I'm saying? It's like, yeah, it's like um I would compare it to like, you know, you know how ladies they want to get dressed up and dialed before they go out, you know. You don't want nobody to see you before you're all dialed up.

SPEAKER_10

You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03

That's what you want for your car.

SPEAKER_10

Like, it'd be like, oh, I haven't put on my lip liner yet.

SPEAKER_16

Right. Don't look in the fact what the hell?

SPEAKER_10

Like, I don't take selfies before I like like I refrain from taking a selfie if I have if I don't have lip liner.

SPEAKER_03

I feel that's what it's like, bro. I'm telling you, but we definitely need more um more ladies in the low rider scene. I love when I see ladies in their lolos.

SPEAKER_10

Like it's shout out to Vanessa Naye, um, daughter of Mario. Um she's I feel like she's the next generation of lady lowriders. Um shout out, homegirl.

SPEAKER_03

That's cool. Yeah, it's important for me too, because I I've I have my three um my three goddaughters, and I love taking them to shows and stuff like that so they can like be raised in the culture and know, you know. And so that, you know, hopefully the lowrider bug bites one of them, you know. I can help them out. Right.

SPEAKER_17

All right, so uh let's go into uh a song. All right, the second song she picked for hers is a feature, right? Yes. This is Brown Shady.

SPEAKER_10

Shout out Brown Shady out of San Luis Rio, Colorado.

SPEAKER_17

Let's go. This is called Pudo West Coast, featuring each Vita. Let's get it.

SPEAKER_03

Fire.

SPEAKER_17

Shout out to the whole fire.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, me wanting to be with what the this track was actually a really full circle moment. Like I like grew up listening to Brown JD and like being on a track with him now is like wow.

SPEAKER_17

SPEAKER_10

There's actually a song um by a Mexican rapper. His name is Tornillo. It's called Morena. I initially thought he was talking about a girl.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Alright, so um, we're gonna go into a little interview portion. Um, give us a summary of um things you hope to accomplish on your journey as a music artist.

SPEAKER_10

I was actually talking about this to Carlos Herala yesterday about who I would like. Truly feel like I've made it if I made a song with them. Um I would really like to make a song with Santa Fe. Um, I don't know if you guys know who he I don't know who that is. Um he's he's a very he's actually the most famous Mexican rapper out right now. Um he has a song called Bormi Mexico. You probably heard it on the streets of Milwaukee, though. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_17

That's what I'm saying. I know you probably heard him.

SPEAKER_10

He actually gifted that song to Lefty SM Long Live. Um but he's one of like one of my main goals is to either get recognized by him or even make a drag with him. And that's there's still a long way to go, but I mean there is the possibility of networking connections, and I'm very hopeful that I can make a drag with Santa Fe. Yeah.

SPEAKER_17

And it's it's not even necessarily a long way to go. I want you to remember that like I used to think like that a lot, and then I would see other people just come out of nowhere, month, two, three months, and they're doing things. I'm like, damn, I don't, you know, and it's just because if when you do certain shit a certain way, you could just launch that shit out, and then you know, so it's it's not really a fast tracks a little bit. Yeah, it don't necessarily mean that you're not where you need to be, or it just it's just just keep working consistency, basically. Yeah, because it's not it's not necessarily a long way-to-go thing, is what I'm saying. So no, don't don't focus too much on that.

SPEAKER_03

And you got it, you know, as far as um like the quality of music that you're putting out, you know, and the just the quality of content overall that you're putting out is really good, and that's what people like that like to see, you know. They're not trying to, you know, collaborate with people who aren't taking their shit serious, you know. So just the the connections you got with um, you know, the Milliwas team and you know, the hitting hard radio team, and just all of that is gonna help, like he said, fast track you, you know, because you're already putting out good music.

SPEAKER_10

Thank you.

SPEAKER_17

And and and you have a uh a clear vision. That's that's something I'll tell you right now that as an artist, I personally can say I didn't have a clear vision at first. I kind of was just like, hey, I'm in the ghetto. I'm I'm out here, I'm good at rapping, I'm just gonna talk about, you know, and I never really was like, well, what's what's my my goal? What's my look? What's my my sound? You know what I mean? And you have that pretty down past. So you're you're 10 10 times ahead of somebody who doesn't even have the vision, you know what I mean? So just remember that and you'll be you'll be valid. You got it.

SPEAKER_06

Thank you.

SPEAKER_17

Santa Fe clan should want to do a song with you. That's facts.

SPEAKER_03

We're about to tag them. Everybody tag us at it. Tag.

SPEAKER_17

Come on the podcast, we can talk about it, fam.

SPEAKER_03

Um what is your hip hop origin story? Um like how did you begin the music?

SPEAKER_10

Actually, my dad, he's part of a grupo nortenio, and he's one of the main people that has I guess sparked my love for music. Um and although I'm not as close with him as I was as a child, I I still give him his flowers for I guess fomenting my love for music. Not only am I a lyricist and a singer and a rapper, I also do play the violin.

SPEAKER_03

Oh shit. Um did you bring it with you? I had no idea.

SPEAKER_17

No, if you would have said that first, I would have been like, bring the violin, fam.

SPEAKER_10

Um, I'm a like I'm a classical nerd. I have a playlist of just classical music on Spotify. Let's go. Let's go. Like Mozart, Beethoven, like you name it, Paganini, like I'll I'll whip out my violin. Um and start like shredding. Um stop playing, bro.

SPEAKER_17

I don't know we're about to pause, man. Call somebody bring the violet.

SPEAKER_03

Bring the violin in this building somewhere.

SPEAKER_10

No, but uh Um, and so yeah, just like music theory has really helped a lot in like being able to also do like riffs and stuff and make sure that I can also like vocal rap.

SPEAKER_17

Um Hold on real quick. So you're saying that

SPEAKER_10

Like I love I love the science behind how to make a song. Like if beats can measure, um, if this can harmonize with this, if that can do that, if A plus B equals C plus D equals E, like I it's it's like a I'm like a little kid in the candy shop. Um and I discovered like on the hip hop tourist side of the things I like I've always had a love about like I like MM. He's one of those like main artists that I started listening to. Um It's Crazy, uh Mr. Yoshi Lokote and Bon J a bunch of West Coast figures that have also I guess lamented my love for the genre and that's pretty much where I take info from as well.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And they're fucking amazing. Like uh who said it? Mo City, I think, um was saying like you know, it it's it makes sense that you would gravitate towards rap because you know, with having that um knowledge of music theory and then uh being a lyricist, there's so much more that you can do lyrically with rap that you necessarily can't do sometimes with singing or um just regular poetry, you know, like you know, the way uh you say certain things over a beat can give it meaning, and then like you know, the double, triple entendres and stuff like that. Like you can't really do that all the time with certain forms of singing, you know.

SPEAKER_17

So or instrumentation or anything, yeah. You yeah, you could do a lot with well, you know, there's a reason hip hop became the biggest thing in the world, you know. I mean, it's a it's a reason. It's not it's not just because it sounds good, you know what I'm saying? It's because it it transcends you know what I'm saying? The words reach differently and they relate to everybody in such a way that you you're just attracted to it no matter what. And you know, rapping, rhyming words and like melodies and shit. That's how you teach you go to any kid, baby kindergarten class or something, they're singing and rhyming to kids. That's how you remember shit. It gets stuck in your mind. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, literally the alphabet is a rhyming song, bro. Yeah, yeah. That's crazy, you know what I mean? Like, so it's like it's it's uh it's just it's it's a human nature thing, bro. That's why hip hop is so uh dominant in the world, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Like the who's the dude that uh Dr. Seuss, you know, like yeah, there's it's obvious why the dude the best selling you know authority.

SPEAKER_17

You know, yeah, I'm telling you, that shit the uh the the the the rhyming and putting it onto beats and melodies and shit added to all that, it's an unstoppable force, bro. Everybody raps, bro. The whole world has rappers, man. Yeah. And their own languages and everything, but when you come back to how they're doing it, you know, South Bronx, New York, fam.

SPEAKER_03

You know what I'm saying? All right, um what are some of your favorite things about live performances?

SPEAKER_10

Definitely being able to like incorporate some of the more culturally influenced music genres like Goombia. Like if I have a chance to sing a gumbia song, don't play with me, I will like put my a thousand percent in that performance. Um not that I won't put a thousand percent of my self in other genres, but like I love being able to be like creatively free for my performances, whether it's through my dance moves, through what I'm wearing, also how I do my makeup. I just love the whole aspect of being able to sing to a crowd and make them feel a certain way based off of the way I'm dressing, the way I'm dancing, the way I'm singing, the way I'm spitting, and like I just love I love performing so I could tell.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, you're very good. It comes across as you love it. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03

Facts.

SPEAKER_17

I love just watching you love it. Facts because uh it's it's a it's a thing, bro. I'm telling you, I'm trying to tell you, bro. The first time I met her, bro, she got to doing that shit, like and dance and rapping and shit and singing. I was like, holy shit, this is crazy, bro. She about to be, and then you did. I love it. I was telling um BZ Bars last night. When you remember when you brought up his video, it was just him on a cell phone, just rapping and all. And I told Illy, I'm like, I don't know, man. He's just rapping on the, you know, it's just a it's not even a song. Illy's like, nah, he's cold, bro. Trust me. Then we had him on. He rapped. We listened to a song, oh shit. Now BZ's doing like you can go to a show right now and see him performing, killing shit. He got a group of people, he's growing and escalating. I love that. Like I met you, you was doing your shit, and now look at where we at. You know what I mean? I love it because I'm like, oh shit, but all that talent isn't going to waste, is what I'm saying. Even if you stop today, hey, she went from this to this and did that. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? That's a major thing. And you should always be proud. Thank you that not even proud, you should just be honored that you did that for yourself. You know what I'm saying? Because you didn't just, oh yeah, I was doing that shit, and then I was like, oh, never mind. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_10

There's actually a video on my dad's Instagram of me as a I think I was like eight, seven around there, where I'm just like at a park on the stage, and I'm just like just in my own world, just singing as a little kid. And I'm like, man, this foreshadowed my present day. Yeah. So and I'm just like, wow.

SPEAKER_03

I gotta use that in the music video.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, you yeah, if you got that video, you need to clip that into the next video before he takes it down. No bullshit. Cause I don't have nothing like that where I'm like little rapping and shit. There was a video of me like uh what the fuck is that dance, the running man back in the day? I ain't even speak English, nigga. I used to just speak spure Spanish, bro. And I was fucking doing the running man and shit. But it's like, but that's not rapping, you know what I'm saying? Right, but I'll still put that in the video if I can find it. Like, yeah, this me, fam. Always mean hip hop as fuck.

SPEAKER_03

Period, but uh speaking of performances and just like your music theory, have you ever tried to produce or anything like that? You'd probably be super good at it.

SPEAKER_10

I want to.

SPEAKER_17

If you want to, do it. Yeah, that's some shit that I I wish I would have done too. But you know, I'm just all advice I'm just giving you. Just you don't have to do it, but if just if you if you feel like you want to, just put yourself into it. Just here, let me do it. Teach me how to use this.

SPEAKER_03

It's a lot easier learning now than what it used to be, especially with like YouTube and stuff. Cause I just started learning how to produce like a year or two ago, and I thought it I was pretty intimidated before I started learning it. But like Man, I watched like a two-hour YouTube video. I made seven beats that week.

SPEAKER_17

Like, yeah, the technology is crazy now, too.

SPEAKER_03

So, like, as long as you got access to the technology and you know, some tutorials and stuff like that, and then you already have the music theory, you know, and the talent, and you know, you're really good at kind of.

SPEAKER_17

Oh, yeah, I see what you're saying. I missed that part of the question, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, facts, like speaking facts, right? You can do it, you'd probably be really good at it just because you know how to play an instrument already. So you know, and then you can even further craft your sound.

SPEAKER_17

This is a crazy question, but when you think about music, how do you see it the way that nobody else sees it? And why what I mean by that is like when I see music, like you know how the recording stuff looks, like the pro tools and shit? Like, I literally when I hear shit, I see that in my mind. Like I'm like, okay, this is how it's set up, this is layered on this. Like, how do you see it in your mind?

SPEAKER_10

Like, when I think of music, I think of I I like I automatically envision a sh like a sheet of like a sheet of music.

SPEAKER_16

Like, oh shit, yeah. I'm glad I asked that question. That's dope.

SPEAKER_10

Like I see the notes and how like like the octave, yeah, like and then I see if it's if I'm like trying to hit a staccato, like a staccato type um I guess melody, I see the line under it. But if I'm trying to do like a more like a vibrato, I see like the squiggly line, and then when it's trying like a different, like yeah.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, that's code that's fucking raw.

SPEAKER_03

See, and that made just her explaining that makes me wish that I would have like you know, stuck with you know, because I I did get into like um music class in when I was in probably sixth or seventh grade. Yeah, you know, but um I didn't like stick with I didn't stick with it, you know. So but if I would have like stuck with it and not been, but that was also the time that I had just like started trying to rap. So that I feel like that's partially why I didn't stick with it. Cause I was like, oh fuck this.

SPEAKER_17

No, that's facts. I'm writing. I don't need that. I could just rap and I'm gonna be signed for millions of dollars. Yeah, because I was in honors band, yeah. So I like what she's talking about, like the notes and all that, the lines, and I used to fucking do I used to do that well, bro. But it was obviously a bearitone, it was just the one instrument. But I used to be able to read, I don't know how to read music no more. Like if I go look at it, I'm not gonna know how to do the fucking thing with my fingers and what note is what. Yeah, you know, but I used to. So the fact that you're still into it and you see it like that is fantastic. I would love to see you play the violet. Yeah, fuck that. We've send me send us the video. Fuck that. Send us a video, I'm gonna put it right here.

SPEAKER_03

Even if it's just like, you know, between two songs, like sandwiched in between two songs, like yo, you know, I just wanna that would make everybody's respect for you like girl, don't crazy.

SPEAKER_17

If you do still drape, you'll that shit'll go nuts.

SPEAKER_16

That shit'll go nuts. The whole crowd'll go nuts.

SPEAKER_10

Actually, um, I wanted to do I wanted to sample one of um called Night Rider. I forgot who composed it. But I want to sample that into a trap.

SPEAKER_17

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

Because like that's one of my favorite songs to play on the violin. So imagine if I turn it into like I can just like with some violins in there.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, like use my violin and motherfuckers be getting hella views when they when they playing instrument and rapping at the same time.

SPEAKER_17

I don't know about rapping while you're playing. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_03

Dog, there's this dude playing the piano.

SPEAKER_17

Rapping, bro, while you're violin, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_03

No, I've song, I've song while I would have been playing violin too.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, yeah, no, but I'm saying rapping, like rapping.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, I have to do that. Yeah, that's talent. What the fuck?

SPEAKER_03

There's this dude, like he's playing the piano and he's rapping, he's going ham. That's right. And like the beat on the piano is going ham. I'm like, dog, dude is killing it. And he got like a million something.

SPEAKER_10

It was actually to a French song. It's called Danier Dance by Indila. Um, I did it at a talent show. I went like second place.

SPEAKER_17

Second place, playing the violin and rapping. Fuck them. I I call bullshit. I call bullshit, bro. If I'm gonna hear playing violence and rap and shit, yeah, that shit gotta be first, bro. Because that's just hard just to like for me, it trips me out when people be doing like the yeah, and rap rapping. Yeah, that shit trips me out. I'd be like, I would have fallen off beating. Yeah, like how do you do that? When the reggaeton artists are like and they're rapping and they're rap to that shit. I'm like, damn, y'all singing, and everything sounds all good. I'm like, that shit is crazy. I could like tap my feet on beat and do it and shit, or like bob my head, and I can maybe do like a one. That's it, but these niggas be and they be rapping. Yeah, I'll be dunno. I'll be like, damn, y'all killing it. And she's talking about the violin, like, yeah, I just did it all casual and shit. She's like, Yeah, I'll just be, yeah. That's how I fall asleep.

SPEAKER_10

I was like, I was like, I'm on those two phones. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_03

That's cool. All right, um talent. So last question I got for you is um, how can the all four one for all podcast audience find your content? What's the best way?

SPEAKER_10

Um, right now, I'm currently in the process of re-uploading my music. Um, but soon you can find my music on Spotify, Apple Music, wherever you stream your music, as Ichelita.

Yeah, like you could go to this side of the city and see one thing, and then you come to this side of the city, certain street, certain neighborhood, and you'll you'll be like, Are we in Capla California? Like, yeah, where did these little fucking essays come from? You know what I'm saying? And like, nigga, we here. This way, he he said it like Southside families, yeah.

SPEAKER_17

No, that's what I'm saying. When I moved here, that's what it was. When I moved to Milwaukee, bro, like that that's what the Southside was Little Mexico. That's what people used to call me.

SPEAKER_03

I just shared a uh a reel the other day from another podcast. Damn, now I can't remember the podcast name that I want to talk about it. But um, dude was like, he's like, there used to be a saying, the fastest way to get from Africa to Mexico is the 27th Street Biden.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, they used to say that that was that's the Milwaukee thing. Well, you know, we're also one of the most segregated cities in the in the country. Sadly, and you don't think about that shit. You don't think about until you go, you know, I tell people all the time, you come to Wisconsin, bro. This is one of the very few, not the very few, but it's one of the only states west of like Michigan and all that, that when you go into the country little towns, there's literally no colored people. And it's weird because you go to Michigan and there's little towns, they're still black and Latinos and shit. Yeah, Illinois, you go to little towns, there's still black people, and they're still, you know what I'm saying? Then you come to Wisconsin, you leave Milwaukee, the milk, the greater Milwaukee area, fam, and you're likely to not find a colored motherfucker for hours, you know what I'm saying? So yeah, segregation, man. Fuck y'all. I was playing. No, but uh my pick, damn, bro. That shit got me geeked up, bro. I want to do, I want to do a uh West Coast game banging song now.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I want to do a song with homie now.

We're gonna reach out, yeah. Frost frost local that nigga, bro. I fuck with dog. So uh moving on to my pick, we're gonna switch the tempo a little bit. I'm I I should have listened to those two before I pick my nigga. Nah, but we're gonna switch the tempo, bro. This is uh Richie P and D Rose, Damone Rose, both uh all four one for all alumni. They've been here, interviewed, and uh this was I've listened to this before, but I never really caught it till I was at work the other day, and it was in my headphones. And you know, when you're working, you zone in to the music. And I was like, who the fuck is this? And then Richie started rapping, and I was like, Oh shit, this is Rich P song, bro. And this is Damone Rose. So D Rose got on his uh Justin Timberlake on this one, bro. Let's go, it's called Pressure. We just went from all that to this in Milwaukee, bro.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, well, still West Coast feeling.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, bro. That's that popped up off my shit at work, and I'm like, This shit is raw for the fuck. Yeah. Shout out to both of them brothers, bro. You know, I was with I was with both of them last night. Yeah, and fucking, I was like, bro, y'all song pressure, these niggas brushed over that shit. Like, yeah, that's cool. She's like, what the fuck? Like, we just not gonna talk about how cold that shit. Like, and then why you I don't have a video for that, fam? I'm about to cut this one little clip out and send it to these niggas. Like, what the fuck? Why y'all that definitely needs a video, bro? Yeah, need two or three baddies, fam, and just go for it, fam. That shit is cold.

SPEAKER_10

Let me know. I got three baddie friends.

SPEAKER_17

We got the cast, fam. We got the cast and she'll choreograph it, and she'll core what that shit crazy. Hey, uh, speaking of choreographing though, we ain't picking no topics.

SPEAKER_03

No, I was thinking, I was literally thinking that as I'm like scrolling, I'm like, oh shit. But um, that's cool. We can just on the fly with it.

SPEAKER_17

Well, yeah, we'll freestyle it, fam. Yeah, you good? Yeah, that's what's up. Yeah, shout out to each elite. I mean, we're here. Rolling with that. That might have been one of my best, my favorite music reviews. Like, those were all three super fucking lit, bro. It was super turned up. I like that fam. I fuck with that.

SPEAKER_05

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_17

All right, so we just gonna fucking go in here. I'm just gonna rush and roulette this shit. Yeah, I'm just gonna pick one. Oh, here you go, right here. This is a good one for each elite, though, too. I like that. We're gonna start with this one. It's two chains, it's it's titled, I think everybody is one song away. Let's go.

SPEAKER_18

Everybody, yeah. The biggest artist, the the yeah, one is just it's just it's really take one song. I mean, you know, a lot of other things have to happen, but it's really one song, right? I think everybody's one song. That's facts. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

I actually have like a really prominent example of that, I guess. I guess the concept. There's an artist, his name is Louis BPM, he's out of Venezuela. There's this one track called Tranquilong, I actually did a free verse challenge for that song. Um but with that song he just wants to do it. And Faruko ended up getting like I guess taking notice on his whole like music journey journey and completely like became like his godfather and uh decided to like put him onto so many different things. Now he has a remix with J Balvin. Um that he featured on with his artist named Junior, like he's he's like taking over the globe with his with his music.

SPEAKER_17

And it's just one record.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, just one record.

SPEAKER_17

It really is. It really is just that one you know, you know, it this is kind of the same uh like same wheelhouse and shit, but it tricks me out when I'm like I've been here sitting here rapping for fucking 20 years and shit, and I'm like, bro, I'm trying to fucking kill this, I'm doing it. And then somebody be like, How long you been rapping? And they're like, they're on, they got like a hit on the radio and shit. But shit, I started rapping like six months ago, yeah, and I'm like, dog, what the fuck? And it's just that one song, that one record is just it made it, it clicked, people liked it, everybody heard it. And to her point, all it takes is one person to hear it. Yeah, that that right person is just one person, like, hey, I fuck with that, bro. Yeah, and then she said two good songs, two names, Faduco and Jay Bolly, and they're nobody to scoff at, bro. They're both huge record or like record makers, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_10

Like and they call him the Gen Z donomata.

SPEAKER_17

Wow, I gotta go listen to dog.

SPEAKER_10

Like he has some strong vocals. Actually, if you want to play the song right now, like it's we'll go, we'll go catch a clip of this, bro.

SPEAKER_17

We gotta we gotta we gotta hear this guy, fam.

SPEAKER_03

But also, um, you know, uh, and uh the flip side of that is so many people have made their one record, you know, and then they've made countless records after that one record, but they stopped promoting that one record, or they stopped believing in that one record because they didn't get the traction as fast as they might have thought that it was supposed to. But that kind of goes along with what you're saying, like it takes for the right person to hear that one record, that one song, and there's millions, if not billions, of people in this world, you know. So, what if that one record just hasn't reached that person yet? You know what I'm saying? Like, I watched uh a clip probably about a couple years ago, but it was the dude talking about his artist made a record nine years prior, and the record didn't go for nine years, bro. Like, and then it reached the right person who you know believed in the record, and she got a career off of that record, you know, nine years later.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, like you know, you know what's crazy. You know what's a good example of that? The cheerleader song. What's that? Um Damn, no, why the fuck can't my daughter listens to shit all the time? It's that fuck him, the pop, like the African. Oh, uh, I think the myself a cheerleader. Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Dog, he had that record forever, and then he really got with a chick that was like, This is a good song, you should like, and she fucking helped him, and that nigga blew up, but that was his hit right there. Yeah, and that was one of those examples, like it was old, he already had it, it was just in the yeah, you know, and then that shit. That's a huge record, bro. You can play that, they play that shit all the time, festivals, all kinds of shit.

SPEAKER_10

That was the main musically song. Like everybody was like, See what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, that was before it was TikTok and shit. She said musically, like we was out here. What what's the name of the uh the guy you said?

SPEAKER_10

It's called Tranquilo by Louis BPM.

SPEAKER_03

You know, and you kind of hit it on the song that I played, you know, the Where They At song. Like, we believed in that record. We never made a video or nothing like that to it, but you know, and then you should have. Yeah, and it's it's been maybe nine years since we could put that out right now, though, and that video goes crazy, you know. You know what I'm saying? And you're you're over here like, oh, that's all it's it doesn't even sound old. It doesn't sound dated at all. No, it sounds like y'all just made that shit, bro.

SPEAKER_17

Right, like GP's still in the same right, you know what I mean? All right, we go, we're gonna catch this little clip, y'all. It's uh Louis BPM. First of all, fucking for real, nigga. That's crazy, bro. Ten seconds, that's all you needed for it. First of all, he just said a Clay Thompson line, so fuck Meg the Stallion. She didn't put him on, bro. Just so everybody knows, man. This is a nigga from Venezuela that knew Clay Thompson. That's just my social media shit talking. You know what I'm saying? You know, because I see, you know, I know y'all know about the shit with Meg the Stallion and shit. Yeah, she broke up and they was like, nobody knew Clay Thompson before Meg. Bro, if you don't shut the fuck. Anyway.

SPEAKER_10

I actually didn't know who he was.

SPEAKER_17

Oh, bro, don't do this. No, but he's like one of the he's he's his records are like top all time. Like he's one of them ones. Like he he a beast with the basketball shit. But he might be a little too much like Don Omar. Like, he gotta grow a little bit into his own, you know.

SPEAKER_03

But that shit no, but that's good though, because that no, yeah, he that definitely keeps Don Omar relevant, you know what I'm saying? Oh, yeah, the homage being, yeah, to the cyber, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_17

Like, also, shout out to the Boricwas, nigga, we worldwide fan. Get like us, look at that.

SPEAKER_03

For me, Don Omar was like a one-on-one, like you almost never see a until this week.

SPEAKER_17

Until like you can hear him, like, oh shit. Yeah, because he really does, he's good at it, though. I see exactly what you mean. Like, his voice carries just like Donald Mike.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I fuck with that.

SPEAKER_17

Shout out to the Venezuelan nigga, bro. He's killing that shit.

SPEAKER_10

Actually, Eliasari is the one who put me on to his music.

SPEAKER_17

He looked like my cousin and shit looking at all right, mine too. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? All of our cousins. He looked like you believe it, all of us look at that. No, but uh, what we got for the second box? All right, man. The second topic. We just out here, just free. Okay, right here.

SPEAKER_15

Let's go to this one. Music the people want to hear, music they need to hear. Hold on, let me start that over. To be a great artist, you gotta have three types of music. Music the people want to hear, the music they need to hear, and then the music you want to make.

SPEAKER_17

So to be a great artist, you gotta have three types of Damn, damn, those are some those are some fucking perfect on-the-fly topics right now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Actually, I also have something to talk about in that too. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_17

It's like perfect. All right, so go for it. What you think? So So he said he said the music the people want to hear, the music they need to hear, and the music you want to make.

SPEAKER_10

Um, so the people, the music that people want to hear, um, actually, shout out to my stepdad, but he's also like put it into my mind that like I should touch more into like a regional side of Mexican music, like banda, and all that, all that jazz to I guess truly capture a a larger audience.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, you could broaden your whole market like that.

SPEAKER_10

They're like you have the vocals doing facts and super facts. Um and the music that I guess people need to hear, like on some conscious rap type energy. Like people there's certain things in the world that are happening and that people need to I think like music could be a good way to get a message across and be like, Yo, wake up. This is happening. And then music that you like that I would want to make like obviously on my Kumbia energy, on my on my indigenous rap energy, like There's different ways you can be an artist and I can like I'm fucking with that.

SPEAKER_17

That's that's you made a good point. Um the the music that people want to hear. I never got into that because I try to stay away from being gimmicky. You know, people are like, oh you're you're being gimmicky and shit. And it was like, I guess maybe it was just because I wasn't fully into the culture like I thought I was, so I didn't want to seem like I was forcing it. But it's a it's a true thing. And people on the comments shitting on dog, like if you want to be a popular artist. Dog said Kendrick got the fourth kind, the music, none of the baddies want to hear.

SPEAKER_02

They killed him, right?

SPEAKER_17

No, but like they aren't here talking shit. You only need the last one, bro.

SPEAKER_10

He's I'm a baddie and I listen to Kendrick.

SPEAKER_17

No, yeah. Well, that's because you're a smart one, you know what I'm saying? Like, but he's like, he's looking at it from a blowing up and getting to be a big, you know, like people are making excuses. But uh, you know, I agree with this statement, bro. You need those three. You you you need the one they want to hear, music they need to hear. That's that's for me the Kendrick. Like, that's the shit that you need. You need to hear this shit, bro. You need to catch this work about shit that you don't want to hear about, fam. Not everything's life isn't one big fucking party. It is, but come on, bro. There's some serious shit happening. And if you don't know about it, like we spoke about earlier, shit repeats itself, and you don't know, you don't learn, shit just happens over and over. We're never gonna be able to stop anything. And then the music you want to make, this is what I need to fucking dive into. It's some shit that I haven't been. I I just haven't done it. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna sit here lie to y'all. I haven't been in tune with the shit I want to make because I'm always worried about what people want to hear. And I'm I'm about to get back to that, bro. I gotta get back to the roots, bro. Like, listen to this shit that I want to make.

SPEAKER_10

Clock it.

SPEAKER_17

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03

And y'all are gonna catch this work. What I think is clever and where where I think people, um, a lot of artists fail at is not knowing how to combine those three into one song. You know what I mean? Like where a lot of artists fail is they they put those three in completely three separate songs.

SPEAKER_17

Oh, see, so you know, like I was just about to say, so you you're saying you should try Yeah, you should try to put a little dash element of all three.

SPEAKER_03

All three of those in like an EP. Yeah. Well, no, no, he not he's saying one song. Oh, a really good song to me is like um, you know, when you can give the people a sound that they want to hear, like the bop, the beat, you know what I'm saying, and incorporate like some really um, you know, good lines to where like people can relate to those lines, but you can also tell them stuff like, you know, you can speak on a topic that's like, you know, in a clever way that needs to be spoken on, you know, whether it be like the shit that's going on with ice or you know, shit that's going on with um them taking over indigenous lands, or you know, like even if you're like a say like a conspiracy type person, you're like, why are they hiding the pyramids from us? Like you could talk about that shit in a clever way to make it not sound boring, you know. And then also you got it. Yeah, and then also you can talk about the shit that you want to talk about, you know, in a couple lines or it, but you if you do it clever enough, you can combine all three of those into one, like on the same song. You know, uh a good example of somebody who does that. Um I recently, not this Saturday that passed, but the Saturday before. Um, I went to the Snow the Product concert, and she's really good at doing that, you know, like she talks about a lot of issues, you know. Yeah, she's um she wouldn't be considered like a mainstream artist, she's like higher up, higher underground, but um, she's really good. You know, she's got a huge following, and she's really good at giving her following the songs that they want to hear over the type of beats that they want to vibe to, but also talking about conscious things. You gonna catch this work, bro. You're gonna catch this work, you know, and she don't give a fuck, you know, she does things that she wants to talk about. Yes, uh, you know, so it's like, and um, you know, from what I see now, you're really good at doing that as well, you know, and I hope that you continue on that process because you're only gonna get stronger through refining that, you know. Um, I would say like a lot of artists, you know, they they get pressured by society and you know what the what's considered cool and shit like that. And I just one of the things I hope with you being like so young and you know, so skilled is that like you don't let those pressures really get to you, you know. So but yeah, you're really good at that as well because I've heard you talk about shit that matters, I've heard you you know talk about shit that seems like that's shit you wanted to talk about, and then I've uh heard you make songs that seem like that's what the people want, you know what I'm saying? So but like he's saying in the video, a clever way to make a good song and be a good artist is to combine those three into one. Yeah, you know, you are good at that.

SPEAKER_17

Thank you. Even in the diss song, you was right, even in the record, you was talking that shit. Yeah, you ain't culture fan, you ain't, you know, you don't know what it's really like.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and you made it a lip line rank pop, like I was code, you know what I'm saying? Like it's something that I felt like I wanted to hear, you know. So it's like, you know, you you got what it takes to do it. Thank you. She don't even she's like, thank y'all know what's a dope topic still, man. Yeah. All right, so um, that concludes this episode.
