00:20Now, it's crazy because, you know, I know B-More and B-More is very eclectic, like, as
00:24far as the sound.
00:25Like, so many different sounds.
00:26Like, I've always been a fan of the B-More house.
00:28You know what I mean?
00:29Like, has some of that stuff ever influenced you whenever you were coming up in music?
00:34Yeah, definitely.
00:34Definitely.
00:35It made me become a different artist, like, and unique myself.
00:40You dig what I'm saying?
00:41Like, it made me stay more to home, a home base, but at the same time tap into other cultures
00:48because we're so mixed in with so many different cultures.
00:51You feel me?
00:52Right.
00:52Yeah.
00:53And what were some of the influences coming up?
00:56I know because you, your hook game is on point.
00:58Like, you've never made a bad hook.
01:01So, where did, where does that all come from?
01:03What were some of the influences coming up before you got, got into the music?
01:07God, bro.
01:09Everybody, for real, bro.
01:10Listen, Rich Homie, Post Malone, Wiz Khalifa.
01:15Like, bro, I listen to it.
01:16Good music.
01:17If it's good music, I'm going to listen to it.
01:19You dig what I'm saying?
01:20Like, I jump into the phase music sometimes.
01:22Like, the music for the right now or a month later.
01:26I kind of bump that, too.
01:28But at the end of the day, I like real music.
01:30What I'm going to download, what I'm going to go stream all the time is real music.
01:34So, yeah.
01:35Definitely.
01:35Was it trippy for you when you saw Wiz Khalifa, you know, you being a fan and him rocking
01:39out to his obituary?
01:41Yeah, bro.
01:42That's my God, bro.
01:44At the end of the day, I'm a street cat.
01:46So, at the end of the day, like, I don't embrace everything how everybody else embraced
01:51everything.
01:52But definitely, I was definitely proud of myself.
01:54You feel me?
01:55Like, I made it to that point where you can't really, you, he's legendary, bro.
02:02You feel me?
02:02So, for him to be listening to my music is like, it's a different level.
02:06It's a whole, you feel me?
02:08Yeah.
02:08And they're really tapping in.
02:09Yeah, hitting me.
02:10Yo, take my number.
02:11Hit me all the time.
02:12Whatever you feel me.
02:13Whatever you need.
02:14Yeah.
02:15Like, yeah.
02:16Yeah, I dig that.
02:17That's fire.
02:17At what point, like, do you, like, kind of, like, keep your poise when, you know,
02:22you know, big guys come up and, like, support your music like that?
02:25And when do you feel the need to be like, yo, man, you know, I have this and this would
02:29sound good to have you on it.
02:30Is that something you'd be interested in?
02:32Like, how does that conversation, like, unravel?
02:34You feel me?
02:35I vibe first.
02:36And, I mean, the younger cats, as we come up, we on that type of tip.
02:41Like, boy, let's come on.
02:42Send you this.
02:43Hop on this.
02:44When we're going to do this, we're going to do that.
02:46You feel me?
02:46But the older cats, you feel me?
02:49You know it take a little bit for them to gravitate to our music because we still trying
02:53to come in in our own little wave.
02:55Right.
02:55You dig what I'm saying?
02:56So, for somebody else, I don't know, bro.
03:01Your questions is where they supposed to be.
03:03Like, you dig what I'm saying?
03:04Because, like, I really can't put a...
03:08I'm just blessed.
03:09Definitely, bro.
03:10That's just how I feel.
03:11Like, I'm just blessed.
03:12That's good.
03:13And I ask that because I'm curious myself.
03:16You know what I mean?
03:16It's always crazy when you vibe out with somebody and it's like, when is the right
03:20time to, like, ask that person to, hey, let's do a record together?
03:24Once you get around them and you vibe a little bit, I mean, it's going to work.
03:28You feel me?
03:28Just like how me and you, we sitting right here.
03:30It might go from here to a whole other level.
03:34You dig what I'm saying?
03:34So, you feel me?
03:35We're going to work at the end of the day, but we're going to vibe too.
03:38And that's when you get around people.
03:41You feel me?
03:41At the end of the day, they artists, but they people first.
03:44You feel me?
03:45They're good people at the end of the day.
03:47Not even just people.
03:49They're good people.
03:49So, once you get around good people, Christian, you feel me?
03:52That's real.
03:53Shorty Shorty here, man.
03:55And I'm trying to figure out which girl pissed you off to the point where you made a bet your
03:59obituary.
04:00It was good across the phone.
04:03It was a good conversation.
04:05I was on the phone with a female and I heard a homegirl on the phone with somebody in the
04:10background.
04:11You feel me?
04:11And as soon as she got off the phone with the dude that she was on the phone with, she
04:15called another dude.
04:17The same type like energy.
04:18I'm like, oh, that's crazy.
04:20So, I just brainstormed like, man, you going to get off the phone with me and do the same
04:25thing?
04:26I'm like, all right.
04:26Bet you a dog and your own girl too.
04:29You know what I'm saying?
04:30Yeah.
04:30And it came together like, bro, that's, and that's another reason that everybody can
04:34tap into my music, bro.
04:35You feel me?
04:35I'm, it's real.
04:37It's either a story I got, a situation I went through or a situation my dummies went
04:42through or whatever the case may be.
04:44Yeah.
04:44And it's cool.
04:45And the reason, and it's glad that you say that, man.
04:47Cause I, I feel like in your music, like, you know, whether you're going through a pain
04:51in the song, you know, like you can feel it through your voice and your, and your sound
04:55is, is very different and it's, it's very unique.
04:58Yeah.
04:58So, and to, and to hear that in the music, man, and, and for you to create an amazing
05:02single out of that, that's doing millions of streams at the end of the day, she's kicking
05:06rocks and probably kicking herself in the ass.
05:08But little did she, little did she know that she helped create a fucking hit.
05:12She know.
05:13I couldn't put her name in there.
05:14That's cool.
05:14Yeah.
05:14I hear you, man.
05:15Yeah.
05:15Yeah.
05:15Have y'all ever spoken ever since?
05:17Yeah.
05:17Yeah.
05:18Yeah.
05:18We still speak, bro.
05:19It's crazy.
05:20That's wild.
05:20We still speak.
05:21She know the situation, but like, what you, like, what?
05:24You feel me?
05:25When you from, like, I, you feel me?
05:28And then I'm a, I'm a good person.
05:30You feel me?
05:30So at the end of the day, she look at it like, all right, you made a song and then
05:34it got around that I made a song about her.
05:37You dig what I'm saying?
05:38And now it's other females that hit me like, you don't make a song about me.
05:41When you want to make a song about me?
05:42Like, that's me on that conversation.
05:44You feel me?
05:45Like, I broke, I, I, I, I've messed around too.
05:46I was doing some messed up stuff too.
05:48Yeah, yeah.
05:49I did this to you.
05:50You should put this in a song.
05:51You should just drop a whole, you should just drop a whole EP just with every girl's
05:56name that ever did something wrong.
05:57Put your little liars, bro.
05:57It's coming in on me, bro.
05:59My album, bro.
06:00It's on the way, bro.
06:01I promise you, bro.
06:02That's what's up.
06:02And listen, you got the project Captain Hook out right now.
06:06And now you also did a tour with Juice WRLD.
06:11You had Slump on there.
06:12Like, what was that experience like with those guys?
06:15Yeah.
06:15They vibe.
06:16They good guys, bro.
06:17See what I'm saying?
06:17Like, when you put, when you put pie in the, in the room with pie heads, we gonna, we gonna
06:22vibe.
06:23You think what I'm saying?
06:24Real talk.
06:25Put one in the air.
06:26We gonna vibe, bro.
06:27So, yeah.
06:27Like, that's, that's just how that went.
06:30Everywhere we went, we was just vibing.
06:32You feel me?
06:33And they, they, shout out to Juice and shout out to Slump, man.
06:35They good guys, bro.
06:36No, for sure.
06:37And they just had, like, started getting tapped into Captain Hook, like, people around
06:41them started to put, put them deep with Captain Hook.
06:43And I got, like, playing them some unreleased music.
06:45Right.
06:46It's fire.
06:47Now, now, how'd you get the alias, uh, Captain Hook?
06:49Were you, like, a fan of, like, the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, Jack Sparrow in it?
06:53You know what I mean?
06:53How'd that come about?
06:54Nah, bro.
06:55I just wanted to steer the boat.
06:57And I like hooks.
06:58I like choruses.
06:59You dig what I'm saying?
07:00I'm more on to a chorus than, my verse, my verse is easy now.
07:04You feel me?
07:05Because the hooks was, like, out of there.
07:09Right.
07:09Like, all right, as soon as you put, turn on the beat, I'm making a hook.
07:11Like, all right, that's crazy.
07:13You feel me?
07:13Now, I got to move on to something different.
07:14So, I just be challenging myself.
07:16You dig what I'm saying?
07:17So, in all that aspect, I'm Captain Hook.
07:21Let me steer the boat real quick.
07:22Let me go ahead and do us right real quick.
07:24You feel me?
07:25I'm going to get the team where we need to be.
07:27Right.
07:27And I'm going to take everybody to the water.
07:29I can't, I can't force everybody to drink it, but.
07:32You feel me?
07:33You dig it?
07:33Yeah.
07:34Who me?
07:34And that's cool that you pride yourself off of wanting to create a good hook.
07:38Because, you know, everybody's usually trying to just make a good song, and I get that.
07:42But the hook is kind of the meat and potatoes of the whole, you know what I'm saying?
07:45That's the chorus.
07:46The whole thing.
07:46The chorus is the, it's like the heart of the song.
07:49You dig what I'm saying?
07:50Like, it's like the heart of the song, bro.
07:52And I learned it early.
07:53You dig what I'm saying?
07:54And so once I started being able to jump into my, my, like, lyrical, my lyrical side of
08:01being an artist, I'm like, all right, yeah, it'll work out.
08:05It's a workout.
08:05That's what's up.
08:06Let me move on.
08:07You feel me?
08:07It's kind of like what Nate Dogg used to do back in the day, man.
08:09So Nate Dogg was the big, the hook guy.
08:11Like, you can rely on him on a good hook.
08:12Like, I think now, I think now for the past maybe a couple years, it's been, like, Ty
08:16Dollar Sign, he's been dropping good hooks, so, like.
08:20You feel me?
08:21Yeah.
08:21But you see, it don't get overlooked, though.
08:23Right, it doesn't.
08:23Real music doesn't never get overlooked.
08:24And they stand out.
08:25Drake, he does it every time.
08:28You feel me?
08:28He, every time.
08:30And people really can't even, like, pick it up.
08:33But he got courses.
08:34He got anthems.
08:36You feel me?
08:36And that's what I want to be a part of.
08:38No doubt.
08:39Some legendary.
08:40Respect.
08:41As you should, man.
08:42Yeah.
08:42That's how you got it.
08:43That's that mentality you got to have in the game.
08:45But, listen, we're here with Shorty Shorty.
08:48Like I said, the new project, Captain Hook, is out right now.
08:51Bet your obituary is streaming like crazy.

10:42I'm all right.
10:43Hey, man.
10:43You just getting started.
10:45That's what I say all the time, man.
10:48Is it surreal sometimes?
10:50Is it hard to, like, kind of bask in?
10:51Or are you just kind of going with the flow?
10:53I'm going with the flow, bro.
10:54I'm taking everything in as I go.
10:56You feel me?
10:57I don't really...
10:58I try to plan, keep everything planned, keep everything, like, notified, but at the same
11:03time, I still try to, like, live my life, too, like, feel me, paintballing.
11:07Word.
11:08You a paintball guy?
11:09Yeah.
11:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:09No.
11:10ATV, all that stuff.
11:11Oh, shoot.
11:12All right.
11:12That's my thing, man.
11:14We got to go paintballing out here next time you're in Tampa, man.
11:16We got a link.
11:17I'm with that.
11:18I'm with the smoke, bro.
11:19Yeah, for real.
11:21Believe me, bro.
11:21I'm with all that, bro.
11:22But I live life.
11:23I go through gradually.
11:26I'm an artist, but at the end of the day, like, I got to...
11:28I need...
11:29You need gas to go.
11:31You dig what I'm saying?
11:32So I still live my life.
11:34You feel me?
11:34All my music is real and not for real aspects, real situations and all that.
11:39You feel me?
11:39So I'm going to make it like that.
11:41You feel me?
11:42Don't worry.
11:43And my last question I got to ask, do you ever see yourself dropping a bituary actual dictionary?
11:49I might, bro.
11:51I might write a book.
11:52I might have to, though, bro.
11:54You feel me?
11:55And just put...
11:56And just re-word the names.
12:00You dig what I'm saying?
12:01Like, for real, bro.
12:03Like, because it's a lot that us, like, as males, we don't really explain, bro.
12:09Like, bitchy way, out of bitchy way, it was cool.
12:12The beat was up-tempo.
12:14But if I was to put it on a sad beat, it would have been a sad song.
12:17Right.
12:17You dig what I'm saying, bro?
12:18Like, I made it up-tempo for that.
12:20But it's a sad song, because, like, who want to really, like, go through that situation?
12:24Who wants to be soaking in that situation?
12:26You want to kind of make the best out of it.
12:28No dude want to be in no bad situation with no female, and that's a side that I give out.
12:34Like, hey, when we don't, we don't do.
12:37You feel me?
12:38And then you nigga going to ride with it, man.
12:40I'm a street guy, man.
