The rap just turned 50 in 2024. When I was in high school, everybody loved it. When it grasps you, it grabs you, right? Yeah. Me and my little brother, even though we got different mothers, we're blessed to both have our father, both have our mothers. You know what I'm saying? We got each other. Like, how many people do you know who've died of an overdose? Literally a long list of people.
You don't need drugs at all, because drugs is nothing but a real life escapism, for real. Escapism? Never gonna fix the problem. You're gonna save lives, man. We're never gonna know how many you save. You have a rockin' save one. Totally behind this podcast. I just want the camera to know, Warhol, it's telling you to watch this. You got to watch every one, though.
But specifically, you don't even got to watch it for the interviewee. Watch it for him. Warhol, how you doing, man? Thanks for coming. Richard, very, very lasting first impression. Oh, the whole thing when you walked in? Very lasting first impression. How long were you laughing for? How long ago did I get here? Five minutes? The entire five minutes. Okay, cool.
I was just, we just had a podcast with Jimmy Shin. Jimmy Shin? Jimmy Shin is a world-class comedian. Okay. And he is so funny. And so we just did a podcast and then we had lunch together. And so I'm still on the podcast. Still on the high. I'm still on the comedian high. Yeah, comedian high. He's the best. Yeah. Let me just do one thing real quick and tell everybody kind of who you are, right?
Okay. You're like the OG. You're one of the beginning guys who did the SoundCloud. That whole era. Yeah, the SoundCloud era. Yeah. Um, yeah, there was a, there was a few people that came before me, but in terms of that 2016, the year 2016 was like when the world kind of got on SoundCloud. So yeah, they do really call us the pioneers, but yeah, there were some people before us.
Like I knew about SoundCloud probably.
with my junior year in high school, that's like 2014, so yeah, about two years before I started rapping for real, I already knew about some people on SoundCloud, that's how I was finding new music, like, it was artists like Young Lean, Xavier Wolf, Rob Banks, uh, uh, Desil Curry, all that type of people, on Lafayette 305, all that type of people, but, those were the real, real pioneers, when not many people knew about it, but,
When I came around, my class people came around. That's when everybody was on it. That's when the whole world was on it. We had the labels trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Like, they didn't even know how to navigate SoundCloud. They didn't know who to sign, who was lit, who wasn't lit.
And then when X came around, X was like the... No, matter of fact, Boat was like the first bridge between the mainstream and the underground music. But when X came around, X was the one that was getting mainstream numbers, so that's when the, like, lines started getting blurred between what was really underground and what was mainstream.
