Speaker 4:So if y'all don't know about this album, man, this is an album by who knows man. I really appreciate who knows production man. Earth Sign was I think y'all really need to tap into. It felt like a, you know, a spiritual experience while I'm driving and I'm literally just in the driver's seat cruising, man, cruising, trying to make sure, you know, we, we on schedule and everything like that Everybody's having a good time, can relax and not have to stress out about driving and what's going on around them and stuff like that. So this album definitely helped.
Speaker 4:Um, just the you know ethereal beats and ambient sounds just made me feel connected to the, to earth man. I was having some some deep thoughts while I was driving man, the sky around me, I'm just observing more in the mountains and everything, man. So it's that kind of album that makes you just ponder life's big questions and why you driving through the deserts and stuff like that man. But, yeah, man, let's get into uh, earth signs by who knows, we're going to play a couple of joints off that and then we'll go into the third album, um, that features the homie, another, another Californian man, uh, the chef.

Um, meo wallace loves red apple cigarettes. Man, this, hey, man, it's definitely like you know, I grew up on Pulp Fiction anyway. But he's in his description for the album man, it's not a concept beat tape or anything like that, it's more just an audio conversation.

Man, these albums kept the ride interesting.
Speaker 4:The drive, man, you know I broke it up. You know it's like a 17-hour drive from Texas to California, so probably might be even more, but I broke it up into like eight-hour, nine-hour days. So it took us two days to get there, two days to get back, you know. So you know what you know. I mean just putting this on, kept me on my toes. Just add an element of surprise for the drive.

Speaker 7:What causes distortion? This is actually a very, very complex question if we want to dive deep into the details of distortion, because in an audio or video system every component can lend a certain amount and a certain type of distortion. But today I want to just talk a little bit about focusing on distortion and what causes it. What causes it? We had a magnificent technical grasp of classical music, music, music, music, music. I love it when you're down there. I'd rather get down than Rather than this. Now, when I get down, young man, I'm a man of my own, I know it's meant I know it's meant Once again back yesterday.

He wasn't lying, man.
Speaker 4:This is a double-sided album. It's a masterpiece of, you know, storytelling through music, man. Each track just keeps flowing seamlessly into the next, creating a cohesive narrative that kept me hooked from start to finish. It's like listening to um audio movies, man. That's you know what. That's the best way I can put it. Man, these albums are like audio movies and I love movies and I love music, man. So you combine them into what yo man, what yo man. So let's get into some of this.

I mean in every situation, whether you're a singer or you're working in a shop and you're meeting people, they take you for what they think you are. So that's inevitable. When you're ready, when you're ready no-transcript.

Half is flipping, rocked you with the baddest boys, but we have the pistons. Told myself this how magic did it? Tragic how that man was switching. We thought of him different. Fuck em. Now they are suspicious. We all could be winning. Let the god forgive em. I cut in the states. The rest was all from business. Feel like I'm running the place, how I'm funding them. Way Man's like the dust in the safe. The bag made enough in a day. Trust me, we all could get paid. None of them thought of the great, the fate of how I come to take the throne. Feel like 09 Braun, the difference, what you is and who you really think you are. And what the fuck did we go wrong? I had enough of this too long. It's what it costs to be the boss. How the feds want it all.
Speaker 8:Ain't seen a thing, ray Charles, cause all I seen was dark. Ain't seen a thing, ray Charles, all I seen was dark.
Speaker 4:Yeah, giuliani man Ray Charles. All I seen was dark. Yeah, giuliani man, now it's just Jules, this joint is fire man. Shout out to you, man. Shout out to San Antonio man. Shout out to Austin, dallas, houston. You know All the Texas areas that's popping with this beat culture. Man, the MCs is killing it as well. All the Texas areas that's popping with this beat culture. Man, the MCs is killing it as well. And then I want to go back to Jersey. Man, I got to holler at my guy YTC. Man, he did this joint called the Joy Remixes and I was listening to this joint. I was like, wow, he did his thing, man. I mean, you know what? Man? I don't expect anything other than greatness from this guy. He's just that good man, he's just that good. So we're going to play maybe one or two joints off of the Joy Remisses by YTC and then we're going to wrap this up. Man, all right.
Speaker 13:We'll be back, cause I remember Lincoln at the school and we be plottin' Talk about our problems and what we do about them, journals and it jottin'. We ain't know the world was watchin'. We was just two kids tryna make it out the bottom. Now I'm rich and rotten. Everyday I think about him. It's a virus, cute wishin' I couldn't stop him, let alone just know how he feel Lyrically. Couldn't top him. He was the nigga with the bell, yeah, and that's real rap. I couldn't do this shit without him, and that's just fact. You see this, you ain't no steelo, then you really don't know me, though, and that's how I separate all the real from fake people, all the real from fake fans who claim that they stands, but they ain't. On my man until the very end, when she was still here, I swear it feels without. People could accuse me for his death. Sometimes I got a shit a real People way back in 2012, but now that is the mainstream topic, I'm guessing I could finally open up and talk about it. So, yeah, let's talk about it. Coming to my mind, I'll show you where the darkest clout is. You ready? I got it, but let's go.
Speaker 13:You see, stealer was my bigger boat at a point in time, spiritually we was in the same boat, but I wanted to take it slow. He wanted to take it as fast and deep as he could go. Pause, yeah, we had some problems, but we're brothers, don't show. Then I called a little wave and headed back to shore and that's when he started drowning and he had no one around him. So partially I feel it's my fault and that right there is my internal wall, the reason why I gotta feel these external flaws, the reason why I can't heal these eternal loss, the reason why I gotta feel this survival's remorse. And here's a message to this fam I know y'all got emotional trauma. That I understand. But I couldn't fuck with If I tried to tell the world I wasn't who I am. And all I ever try to do is lend a hand and give the fans the thing that they demand the most King Capital, the fucking go. I'm just trying to get my nigga hurt. Get him what he deserves.
Speaker 4:I get this. So I gotta add one more to this list, because when I listened to this joint I was like, damn, he doing his thing, man.
