00:00Hanging out at Rolling Loud with DDG, man, how does it feel to have this viral moment
00:04that you're having right now with Pink Dreads and seeing like everybody doing the trend?
00:06It's so cool.
00:07When I'm out of town, I be trippin', I be on one.
00:10It's amazing, man.
00:11You know, that's what all artists aim for, viral moment, just pushing the music further
00:15and further.
00:16Did you know that song was going to be the one to kind of get that vibe going right now?
00:19Yeah, I feel like we're in a day and age of, you know, everything moves on quick in music.
00:25Every week it's a new hit song, so doing it live, give people what they want right
00:29then and there, nine times out of ten, it's going to be a hit.
00:36How are you with the new music right now?
00:37You got The Meth, you got Playing By The Rules.
00:39As you continue to introduce yourself to new crowds, what are you trying to offer?
00:43I just want to put out good music, man.
00:45I'm in a game of not really chasing a hit, just chasing, feeding my community and feeding
00:50the people that really rock with me.
00:51I'm not really interested in creating new fans.
00:54I want it to organically happen.
00:55I know how that is.
00:56So when you go in the studio, what are you trying to represent?
01:00I just want to be one of the ones that come out here one day and, you know, I'm not pulling
01:04up at 3 o'clock, I'm pulling up at 10 p.m. at the SoFi Stadium, you know, headlining
01:12my own shit, you know what I mean?
01:13So I just got big dreams in the music.
01:16Mama!
01:17Mama!
01:18And seeing your kid living on the Little Mermaid the other day, he noticed it was Halle.
01:24How was that?
01:25That was a super viral moment.
01:26That was dope.
01:27He has great parents.
01:28He's going to have an amazing childhood.
01:30And I mean, do you care about all the noise?
01:32Because I feel like y'all obviously have to go to court, y'all have your own stuff, but
01:34then like the internet be judging y'all for y'all.
01:37It's like, they the court.
01:38How do you handle all that?
01:40Hey man, life is life, you know?
01:43Keep it pushing.
01:44Keep it pushing, man.
01:45Well, thanks.
01:46Thanks for talking to Billboard.
01:47Have a good set, bro.
