If you look at like, I call it like the Simon Cowell method of like taking different people and planting it like because of social media and because of algorithms and stuff,

It just doesn't work.

Like the, even how label structures work nowadays, like you get signed and they'll sign you for however much and whatever.

It's still your job to get their record off the ground.

I have to do the TikTok.

The comments have to engage in it.

People, real life human beings have to use the sound.

Like you can't, you can't,

inauthentically do that, do you know what I mean?

It was a weird one.

I'm also not blind to like...

I think I've always put it as it's a little bit harder to get people to be interested at first as a white rapper because it's not typically a white space.

And then especially like I was very aware of the fact that I was...

also my lyrical content and what i was rapping about was obviously it's not like not just white people party but it was more typically that world i'm talking about drugs and and parties and turning up and lit and obviously everybody does that but how i was portraying it felt very white with no better terms to put it you know what i'm saying yes yes um

And so I was aware of that as well.

And some people didn't like that.

And it's completely understandable.

Do you know what I mean?

Especially when rap and hip hop and the culture itself, the essence is essentially how it started was a voice for those who wanted their stories to be heard.

And like, you go back to like Mobb Deep and all that kind of stuff.
