Shout out to Benji and Yulia.

It was my crew from, like, high school.

And I had a few people that, you know, that were still... I was still kicking it.

Didn't one of your friends... No, it was a different one.

Yeah.

This is before I actually met my crew that I'm hanging with now because I eventually made my way to music school.

But I had a few people that...

that I knew from high school that were, you know, taking me and letting me live in their garage and different stuff.

I was still kind of always doing music, but I was working jobs because I couldn't make money doing music.

Wow, it took a lot, man.

It took a lot of just making a lot of different music.

I was playing for a lot of people.

When I finally got to L.A., I did a lot of, like—

You know... Putting bands together for other artists... And I would see how they do stuff... And... Everybody was like... You're a great drummer... So I played behind a lot of different people... Coming up... And some of them were really talented... Some of them weren't... And I picked up a lot of different stuff... From different people... And... Eventually...

I got to a point where I met this guy and he told me, he's like, you know, you're really talented, but you don't have any work ethic.

And I think that because you're so multifaceted and talented, it's kind of working against you.

Because look at all the things you're doing.

And this is, you know, I was getting close to 30 at this point.

And I thought I was going to be young forever.

And at this point, I had my little, my son, my Korean wife.
