So they gave me what they call a holding deal.

Like, yo, you can develop and create whatever you want.

And they was trying to get me to create, you know, like the next version of punk for, you know, for black people.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Or even like, cause that was what was popping.

Right.

And I was like, nah, I want to do something in the space where like what I am, like a comedian and hip hop and bring those two worlds together and like do like some like improv stuff.

And they just didn't understand it.

So I was like, well, I understand.
