    Ebro always tryna grille somebody on tryna be more positive rappers but hes the program director and he'll keep playing that music but wont play a song like Nas Daughters....

      I hope you know that he may be the head of that morning show but as stated in later interview he has no control over what is played they make it seem like they control it when ur listening to the radio but they dont control shit

    Talented young man.Held his own with the grilling. REAL. Hes a real artist not a rapper. Its evident by the way he expresses the way he creates his music from deep down inside. So intelligent.

  • @mattadrev471
    @mattadrev471 9 лет назад +15

    This song sounds like almost every other song that came out in 2012, 2013, & 2014 and by the looks of it...2015.

  • @yave1
    @yave1 9 лет назад +1

    Nice interview. I always enjoy hearing the artists SPEAK. Too often, the general public thinks they KNOW an artist by listening to their music. You learn more about who they are through interviews... when they're able to elaborate on their ideas... their motives when writing their music... how they grew up... where they come from... what they stand for. This is a quality interview.

  • @manaz28jose

  • @nickbagelboy
    @nickbagelboy 9 лет назад +1

    Man, when I first heard the song, I just thought "All right, yet another club drug song and this rapper is the same as the next man, won't hear of him after, etc", but watching this interview, I appreciated his honesty with everything he was talking about. He's a lot more soft spoken than what I expected, seems like a chill and cool guy. I was expecting him to put on this "I'm so gangsta" facade but I was surprised. I've got respect for that. I fuck with him. Didn't know he had a mixtape or album or anything. I'll have to check it out.

  • @marcoguevara2730

  • @rueben44
    @rueben44 9 лет назад +11

    There is something about him that I like even though i do not like the life style he came from. I know a lot of people are one dimensional and very simplistic about it but I see....possibility. Not only that why do people not realize every song, whether pop, country, or R&B, does not have to be deep. Some songs are just good to vibe to and you don't even listen to the words.

    • @thejtrax
      @thejtrax 9 лет назад +1

      It's true that not every song has to be deep. But if I'm paying you to make music can it at least be made with skill, not like you shitted it out? That's the problem with this song.

  • @RobertPaceII
    @RobertPaceII 9 лет назад +5

    There subject at the end about knowing your surrondings around you was interesting. You don't have to be the most outspoken person, but it is important to be aware of people around you. You don't have to be boys with everyone as long as there is a line of understanding and acknowledgment. Stay on your P&Q's, and have situational awareness. I believe the quiet types have this more down pat I have seen than dudes that try to buddy up everybody, and this is because since he thinks everyone is cool with him, and they tell you all types of shit whether its true or if they are just blowing smoke up your ass, that outspoken dude guards get dropped because he may become too comfortable. But I believe you should be aware of anywhere you are regardless of the area.

    He says "school is not for everyone" but he said earlier in the interview "kids stay in school"...These interviews are how they further push the deception. You watch and think this guy is likeable and he's making a lot of sense but not if you're actually listening. This is some serious confusion here! Yeah I'm a hater when it comes to this here!!!

    what a great rare insight into the mind of person who moved into the hood and was assimilated. He even has his square brothers take on it. Very honest. Maybe most honest hustler in an interview.

    It's a shame that real dwn to earth people who r trying to make it in that industry dnt last long. If everyone or at least more than half the people in this country had their own opinions nd really got to know themselves then ppl like this guy would be able to share their story without being blamed for kids or whoever type of ppl that are so lost I guess nd bored with life that they copy what's on tv nd all media. Anyone with a brain who's over the age of 9 should know that that kind of life style is a world of hell. The kind of ppl that like this song foreal r those who have been there. Nd either u try ur whole life until u get out of it or ur comfortable with what u know. Anywayzz it's a funny ass song nd he is refreshing.

    All of you guys are hater. This is a great interview; I don't even like his music or his new popular song. But this guy seems down to earth and actually reasonable.
