Segment 1 (00:00 - 05:00)
- And I see exactly what you fucking ask him. Let me give you the fucking answer. This guy fucking worked. - For sure. - [Gary] Fucking ate dirt. Was patient as fuck. - [Da Baby] Yeah. So if you want it go fucking do it. - [Da Baby] Stupid ass. (laughing) - Stupid ass. - [Gary] Based on my thesis that hip-hop rules the world, it's probably a 50 billion dollar company if you-- - What's your thesis? - Hip-Hop rules the world. - Fucking with you bro. (imitates ringing noise) Trying to get rich and I'm dodgin' these dicks She pissed but it is what it is Get the fuck outta my flex I fuck with you like Martin fuck with Gina Let's go get married like we thank God and Kanisha, okay I don't care what the fuck they told you, we ain't equal These niggas see-through ♪ - When did you guy kind of know that this was going to be that moment? Like is there just like a funny moment? I always find it interesting when somebody gets that white hot. Like, somebody sharing it. Obviously it's all now all just momentum Like what moment in the last nine months were you like, "Oh. " Was there anything like that? - Probably when I started the tour, I dropped Suge and we started a tour. We dropped a Suge video of my tour and I just seen how it was like real fans, all ticket venues, you know what I mean? That alone with the success-- - Selling out, - knowing the words. - And with the success of the song, it was dope, you know what I mean? Kept writing. And I was all the way over, like I don't even-- you know. Because even now, I don't get complacent personally. I don't got no moment like, where I feel like, you know, moments where I feel like where I'm sitting here saying, yeah that was probably the turning point. In them moments I wasn't ecstatic at all you feel me? Like I had a straight face, you know what I mean. - What about when you beat up the dude in the mall? - What about it? (both laughing) - I'm just kidding, I was laughing. That was super entertaining that Sunday. - We got back to work and went and did a show that night. - [Gary] That was super entertaining. - Went and did a show that night. - How hard are you going on TikTok? - I don't even use TikTok. I use the, is that - [Gary] Bro I'm telling you the same thing as Triller, is it like Triller? - It is but the difference is like doing a track with Beyonce versus Shmeyonce. - Like so, it's the same thing? - I want every nine-year-old in America to fuck with you. - [Da Baby] TikTok? - And you can make that happen on TikTok in the next 30 days. - [Da Baby] Okay, I'm going to download it. - You need to. - [Man] I would say it's mainly right now we focus so heavily on IG and YouTube. - Yeah. - [Man] And the conversation of getting into Facebook and those other platforms-- - I think knowing him for sure, for sure TikTok and Twitter you need to really consider. - Man, let me in on my damn phone man. - [Man] He has a Twitter he just-- - I just don't need love, I keep bullshitting - [Gary] TikTok is a must because TikTok is where music like, TikTok is a must. Honestly, I'm going to lock you in this room until you guys like, And I'll probably lose that fight. - I'm going to download it right now. Everybody says that they think when I do Triller that is TikTok. - [Gary] You're going to get so many free fans every day on TikTok. And that's what you want. - [Mike] Your songs are probably already going viral on that so if you jumped on it'd just magnify it. - TikTok is requirement. TikTok is the only app on Earth that has the chance to become the next Instagram. If it continues to get older and they make some other changes. And they add pictures. If TikTok tomorrow adds pictures the way that Instagram added stories, it can get real interesting there real fast. So TikTok for sure. Twitter, I just think your personality would dominate on Twitter. I think you just jumping into people talking about you. Like giving love or razzing or whatever. You just, from what I see from you, your improv nature as an artist strikes me. Its why I think you, like SNL is probably real close for you. And like I think of you more like JT. Like I think you can do SNL as both. Like I want to see you in a skit. - [Da Baby] For sure. - You're funny. - Well you do some shit, like I could do a lot of that now. I just don't want to. - Star power is star power. There's a lot of people I like. People come through here I like because I really like them as a musical talent and then there's people that are just superstars.
Segment 2 (05:00 - 10:00)
You're going to be a superstar, bro. - [Da Baby] Appreciate you bro. - It's super obvious to me. - [Da Baby] Appreciate it. - I took a screenshot the other day of the first time I hit you up because in two years I want to be like this is what I do. - For sure. - Let me give you another big insight that I think will go crazy for you guys. The number one thing that people want is access. The amount of fucking people that if they knew this meeting was happening right now, that would rip their arm off just to be just sitting in this room. - Oh for sure. People want access. So I think one of the things that like for example, him doing something that creates a winner each day to do a three-minute FaceTime with him. - Yeah we used to do that shit all the time. That goes so crazy. This was years ago. - You know what's so great about Hip Hop for me, and just watching how you answer that? All my moves, they're 1987 Hip Hop moves. It's just selling shit from the back of your trunk. - For sure. It's stickers. It's tapping people in Times Square saying, "Yo yo before you go let me give you this free CD. "Oh wait you gotta pay me or I'll punch you in the mouth. " Like you know, it's just the same shit. It's the hotline, Mike Jones. Mike Jones put out his phone number it's the same shit I'm doing right now. That honestly, one of the best things about all this for me is I wish I had musical talent I would drop a song right now that was literally my cell phone number for two minutes and 13 seconds against a hot beat. And I'd have the biggest-- If he dropped a song right now with his community phone number. - Bro, that shit would crash. - [Gary] He'd have four million fucking, he'd have four, five, seven million fans on a database and he can make anything happen. Five hundred dollar limited edition hoodie. Five thousand units sold out one second. Have 800,000 have 80,000 people show up right now in the middle of Manhattan in an hour to have the news cover it, boom. You need to get on Community, I'm gonna get you on. and you need to put out a song with a fucking number on it. - [Da Baby] Watch this. - I believe you and I'm going to be happy because you'll be the number one person with it. It'll work, I'm going to make that happen ASAP. We got to talk to Andy tomorrow, they gave me like a bunch of slots to give out. - [Mike] I'm going to be in that meeting. - You are morning meeting tomorrow? That is the one, that's the fucking, that's the moment. Him, on that platform, and I actually believe he's going to execute and do the song and it's game over. He's going to have four fucking million. And straight up just like you remember, it was just five seconds ago. Fucking how much money do you think fucking Khaled made because of that one Snapchat fucking summer? At this point it's gotta be 50 to 100. There's a way to replicate that moment. At that moment what it was, was people didn't realize how big Snapchat was, he became the guy and his ability be like, "Yo, meet me here. " And then we saw the crowds, right? And then we're just like, damn. I think you can replicate that. You do the Community thing, you have all the cell numbers. And then you come out in six months, you know, take you some time, I don't know what your timing is. And then all of a sudden four months you're like, "Watch this. "Yo Memphis, I'm going to be on this street in an hour. " And you'll have fuckin' 15,000 people there. - That sounds scary. (all laughing) And they want me to be able to do that. - [Gary] And that's how you win, that's how people are like, "Yo this is different. " - I can do that now. - [Gary] You can, but if you get cell numbers. Let me tell you how I know. If I posted on Instagram with my 6. 8 million followers right now and said, "Yo use this hashtag on Twitter to win a dinner with me. " Or I send it to my 115,000 text phone numbers, it's not even close. First of all, you know this, the algorithm doesn't show it to 90% of the people. Let's start with that. Second, people like this. When you get a fuckin' text, and the way they do it is smart. It's a platform right, I'll show it to you. so it's a platform and so like on the backend I see it like a DM, you know? Right like, "Hey Gary. " And I'm like, yo what's good Alex, right? He gets this as a text. And when he signed up, he got my contact card, so he locked me in. So now if you do that, you know how it is. If you're sitting right now with your friends and you get a text and it's from the contact DaBaby and it's like, right? That's crazy. - Lose their fucking mind. - I always say the same shit I'm like, yo when I was a kid Macho Man Randy Savage had this
Segment 3 (10:00 - 15:00)
and he texted me I would have lost my mind. - [Man] And it's invite only. - And I saw one of you sent them like voice memos so they knew it was you type shit. So you don't got to get as personal as a FaceTime. - My man, you've been impressing me this whole time, that little spot. You keep watching people that know what the fuck they're doing, you'll be unstoppable. - I don't watch nobody that don't know what they're doing. I even like when they come in like, merch and shit. Like if I put my focus on selling this hoodie or this whatever. like, I'm gonna sell it. So I don't want to put too much in. Whatever I tell people to that's where they going to go. It just go like that, you get what I'm saying. I want to make sure that whatever I do, that it don't get in the way of what the primary, the workhorse. - You're so young. You get what I'm saying? - 100%, of course I do. That's how that is. Like whatever I do, got to be able to coexist with what I got going on. And help it, you know what I mean? And that's why I lean towards doing some shit, but I kind of just feel the universe out - [Gary] Bro, I'm the same as that. The amount of times I got to third-and-a-half base, everyone's excited, and I just wake up I'm like "We're not doing that. " and everyone's like, "Why? " And I'm like, "Because I don't think it's going to be right. " - Motherfuckers look at me crazy all the time. - [Gary] Actually you want to hear something your world? Mike and I, this a great story, Mike and I decided last, not this last summer, the last summer, we decided we would just meet with so many people in music. Well that's what we were really doing meetings like every third day. - Like last winter really cause Tier dropped in May so before that. - I met, two Memorial days ago so like not last May before right and the winter before that I was gonna drop a mixtape but like produce it just like put together people that I really fucked with and tell stories that I really believed in and it was gonna come out during Memorial Day and the thematic was, you're all about to get fucking soft in the summer and drink your fucking Rosé and chill by the pool and I'm about to triple the fuck down, see you in September. Right, so it's basically like an anthem of like I know everyone's about to kind of go cool in the summer I'm about to triple the fuck down the first fuck-- so we made a bunch of track we had I mean Rallo came through like we had fuckin like we made a Tierra Whack, Tee Grizzley, Gunna track. Two years ago. Fire. Like it was, we were putting together some real, we were doing some fun shit what was it young bands and Trinidad James? Like we were doing some real fun shit with like people I fucked with and it was going and like real we had some other crazy shit lined up and I just called him one day I'm like, I don't want to put it out we just thought a complete, like, it felt perfect like the game changer and then the next morning it felt like it's 1% off and I mean, I don't like 1% off to begin with 1% off in hip hop or the culture it's game. - [Da Baby] That can blow it. - [Gary] Game over. It's fun to have those songs though - [Man] Yeah, they're great songs. (mumbles) - Yeah man, we fuckin', Richie South like what a-- it was some fucking good shit. Honestly bro, right now, you need to put out as much content as possible. You're fuckin', there's so few people that get this hot ever, you got to recognize it. You're so in it, you're like in the eye of the storm but like, you agree with me right? - [Man] Oh yeah, yeah. You're unbelievably hot. - For real. - [Man] Like Lizzo track and people don't do that. - Yeah right for sure, for sure. - That iPhone song is real fucking legit. - [Da Baby] I made that song like two years ago. - Yeah you did a bunch of these in hotel rooms right? - Yeah, for sure. He engineered it. - [Gary] Fucking dirt, I fucking love it - DJ, engineer, he produce. - People are always like, you know this, you've seen this, people are always like, "Yeah I already booked equipment. " I'm like motherfucker, do you understand that Novak Djokovic could take a fucking wooden racket from 1847 and beat your fucking ass in tennis in two minutes if you had all the best fucking new Nike this, and fucking graphite that. Like this ain't a fucking, I mean obviously you need basic equipment to like pull something off but like this is talent. By the way, and the thing you have to do for the other artists is you got to put them in a position you see he's natural improv comedic timing he's got a lot of weird shit going on like in a great way, which is amazing! Not everybody-- what your job to do for everybody, everyone's gonna be different, as they come on you got to figure out what they're naturally at. like one of them needs to have a podcast and a guest And that's where all the contents gonna come from. so make sure that you realize how to, you know, mix up the blueprint predicated on their DNA - And that's what I be try to do when I come to him like, I be wantin'--
Segment 4 (15:00 - 20:00)
I want him to flourish in his own world, you get what I'm saying? - [Gary] A hundred percent. - Because he-- - [Gary] It's the only way. - got all this shit going too. You know, a lot of the shit he randomly do it's funny as fuck. He fun as hell to be around too. It's just, it gets shown in a different way. - Of course, of course it's just the way it should be. - You come up to him like, boom, like this it ain't, you know. - [Gary] That's not what it's gonna be about. - Watch out, you know I mean? So is just that. - There's just all different ways. What about video games? - Video games, I definitely do some shit like that too. - Because I think you could-- - The ideas I would do with it, I would do like some Grand Theft Auto type shit and wouldn't give a fuck. Twitch could be huge for you. - [Da Baby] Twitch, what's that? - Twitch is the platform where kids play video games competitively or people watch people play video games. It's fucking huge. - [Da Baby] That'd be dope. And people like watch me playing Grand Theft Auto? - [Man] It's like a live stream? - [Da Baby] It's just whatever game I want to play, yeah? - Yeah and people watch you. - [Da Baby] Yeah, yeah, that'd go crazy. - I'm thinking about places where-- How do you become worldwide? If you're playing on Twitch and you become part of the community and now people fuck with your music, that's how you get an email from China saying, "Yo we want you to play "and here's a number you haven't seen before in America. " And you're all looking at each other and you're like, fucking Gary Vee and Twitch. Like that that's what this means, right? I'm trying to think about how to bring value for you. America is a foregone conclusion. Now you gotta start thinking about global. - [Da Baby] For sure. - And video games and Twitch, I think gives you a chance to win Asia and Asia is interesting. Japan and pick up some more babe shit and like you know, you could do some real shit. It's something to think about. TikTok too because it's a Chinese based company and its global. I can't push enough on TikTok. - [Da Baby] I downloaded it. (talking over each other) - Yeah Community you have to get invited into. We'll take care of that, we'll hit you up. TikTok ASAP. - [Man] You think it's worth fucking with the IGTV shit and focusing on that at all? I see you do it. Like you post like longer pieces like minute and a half. - 'Cause we're making so much long-- these guys fucking filming me for 15 hours straight a day. We have so much content so I'm not against it and we knew for a while that if you made an IGTV instead of a regular IG it would get more views. IG right now, for us, is going through the first time of decline like all the personalities are declining. And I think we might be in that first moment, that I've been telling-- No IG's doing great! It's just that people are pumping so much money into IG, advertisers, that organic reach is gonna decline. Just like Facebook. - [Man] I was like getting curious about the app, the phone version of YouTube like the community now and the stories like it's still not as good as it what IG is but I see them trying to do something like that so I'm curious about-- - They could. Like all of a sudden I give a fuck about LinkedIn, out of nowhere, like shit can happen. Again, like Twitter could start stories tomorrow. Anything can happen about anything. Like this is where people aren't smart. They're like, oh like this is corny now I'm not on it. I'm like cool I'll just still be on it because tomorrow they may do something that's becomes the fliest shit and then you wanna be on it. By the way that is TikTok, it was called fucking Musically two years ago. - [Man] For real? - Yeah. TikTok bought Musically. - [Da Baby] That shit was poppin'. TikTok bought Musically, got it? And really what are they? It's fucking Vine. It's what it really is with music, with just a lot of music. But real hit songs are coming out of TikTok. Like real, like Lil Nas X is 100% that. And that's the preview, that's not an anomaly, a lucky thing like you've got, it's the number one app in the App Store, it's data. Numbers don't lie. You know? For sure. - I got it downloaded. - [Gary] Yeah, Twitter too Twitter you'll get real good at real fast. You're just funny I just think I think people who follow you on twitter because I think you would be great at jumping into people talking about you - [Da Baby] Exactly. - Uh-huh I just could see you doing funny shit and then people just followed you to see what the fuck, yeah exactly. Twitter's good. It's not the place you push it out like, you don't get the kind of numbers you get and that's why I do people don't fuck with it but it's the one place where, somebody ridiculous left field might. I mean so I just posted
Segment 5 (20:00 - 25:00)
like I shared his song and I look at all these funny people they're like giving him love and they don't look like the people who like, we're funny with our playlists because we're getting people listen to music that would, I mean it's crazy. I have like, 53 year old white accountants in Iowa who know about fuckin' the streets they're like our music so early like they've been listening to Keed for two years, you know? They're like 54, like you know, it's just crazy what, what happens with us. Plus so many A& R guys are watching us but it's funny to see what people say and then I'm just thinking about him jumping in and engaging with that kind of content or the actress of the moment gives him love on Twitter he jumps in and he says, yo what's up? Like just shit that people will catch on to. You see where I'm going? You can't do that. Some actress leaves a comment on his post and he replies on Instagram and does that thing. That's just Instagram and nobody-- you do that on Twitter, and like all the publication's pick it up and retweet it and becomes news, got it? Selena Gomez being like, "Oh you that's a great song. " and you'd be like, yo what's up. you know like that's Instagram 'cause it's a fuckin' dating app. But on Twitter that's on fuckin' E fuckin' News that night. See where I'm going? And it's all the same shit you that comes natural to you. It's just one big game of stickers on a fucking tree. That's why Twitter. Got it? That's not the place you talk That's a place you respond to create smoke. So you're just looking at people who are mentioning you and you're like yo that's funny, like, that's my favorite football player or like, you know? Like Jalen Ramsey's just tweeting like, "This is fire. " And you're like, yeah what's up, you know? Cam Newton you're like, yo my city, feel better. It's where you talk. - Win a damn game. Say some shit, that shit go viral. I just tweeted, who wants Da Baby To start tweeting? I know this odd kinda shit I want to fuck with them tonight too. I been meaning to do that but I just be. - You're busy and you know what happens to everybody? they fucking triple down on what works. So the Gram's working right and everyone gets one dimensional. That's why people lost. Like Tila Tequila should have done Facebook and Twitter. But she thought MySpace was forever. (laughing) Seriously. But like you know exactly what I'm talking about like people get stuck on the thing that got them there if you're not innovating you're fucking dying. - [Da Baby] For sure that. - So that's what I would say. And there's always something and access. You seem so fun. Access for everybody even the most boring celebrity, people want access to. I'm telling you, you do a contest that gives somebody every day a two minute FaceTime? You can use that as leverage to make whatever the fuck you want to happen. If you would have dropped some shit like, yo, for everybody that puts this in their Instagram story, today's the day the fuckin'(mumbles) drops, I'm gonna pick two of you and FaceTime with you. You would have had fucking 500,000 more people putting in their stories which would have led to 750,000 more people find out who the fuck you are so the gamification of the amplification around access. - What type of apps y'all use for the phone shit? - [Gary] The Community thing? - That's what it's called? - [Gary] It's called Community. But it's closed right now because they gotta get approved by the, it goes through the pipes. You gotta get approved by Verizon and AT& T. - [Da Baby] How they price that stuff? - It's all set, I got you. Like, I'll get you set up, I'll hook you up with the people that are running it we've been testing it for about two months now it's fuckin' the most-- This is the most powerful shit I've seen since early email. You guys are youngsters, but when I started doing email in 1999 95% of people looked at their email. Like, you got an email you fuckin' read it. - Yeah, shit I remember I used to be like that a little bit on. - [Gary] You know. - [Da Baby] I fuckin' hate email now. - It's texts. It's text, you're gonna look at your texts. - It may say well Microsoft Messenger and some shit. - I'm going on Instagram Live, I'm getting people fuckin' hype, fuck it. - [Da Baby] They gonna go crazy. - They're about to fucking lose their mind. - [Man] We could just go live together. Where you at Gary? - [Da Baby] Turn the camera around. That shit gonna start echoing man. (talking overlapping) - What up Gram, what up Gram?
Segment 6 (25:00 - 30:00)
What up Paul? Mike Boy, what's good, tell them. Boy, you look good man. I like your fucking haircut. I like what you did. - Thanks a lot. - You're welcome. Yo Gram, if you don't know, you need to know what I'm about to show you. tell him Baby. - [Da Baby] Come on man. Number one album in the world. - [Gary] Fuck man, I really want to say that one day. - The best motherfucking rapper in the world man - [Gary] Tell 'em, tell 'em. You've been seeing me push it. - You n*s is in trouble I'm here with Gary Vee you in fucking trouble long story short. - [Gary] It's over now it's over now. - He's teaching me shit that he shouldn't have fucking taught me. - [Gary] And now it's gonna get ugly. - [Da Baby] Right I don't even got no-- you in trouble. - When you get the blueprint, now you just gotta execute it. - [Da Baby] Gonna go down, Go ahead, take it over. - What's fucking good? (laughing) - [Da Baby] Number one. Number one album in the motherfucking world, man. - Yo this man fucking made this shit happen. I fucking see him go live I'm gonna jump in there with all fuckin 12,000 of you too and I see exactly what you fuckin' asked him let me give you the fucking answer. This guy fucking worked. Fucking eat dirt. Was patient as fuck. So if you want to go fucking do it. - [Man 2] Stupid ass. (laughing) - Stupid ass. - [Man 3] Fuck wrong with you? Bro you're so dangerously close. I think you may have-- I think you guys may really think about doing TV like movies. Yeah you guys need to have a real play, like how are you thinking about it? Like have you started talking like real Holly-- like have you talked to CAA? - They aint ready for that. They ain't ready for that. I'm like, what the fuck we waiting on? You know, I know it need to happen now. - You know what I been thinking a lot about? What would it look like if you went and did like you and Dave Chappelle and you know rest in peace, like me and Nipsey spent, actually it's crazy, last time I saw Nip was in Charlotte with dinner at an MBA and we were talking a lot about this idea of what would it look like if you brought like Rolling Loud and TED talk you know? - [Da Baby] What's TED Talk? - TED talk was like all those big thoughtful talks there's a conference in Vancouver real heavy shit like you know talking about like just real serious shit, like serious keynotes. And you know Nip was super thoughtful so like we would talk about a lot I feel like there's an arena or event to be made where like honestly where like, I come out and give a keynote and then you're the next person out and you fucking shred that stage and the next person is like Mark Cuban talking about like sports business and then fucking The Stallion comes out and she fucking kills it like literally just going like, you know? I think that's where the culture is like kids like you never were this thoughtful of business and marketing back, like, you know what I mean? Everyone's mixing. Like there's so much smarter shit going on I think you guys are so creative like I think one of the things you might want to think about format wise, is doing a show in a ratchet club where you mix up the content where it's not just you and I think you and Dave Chappelle would fucking kill together like that would be like headline shit but like, I think there's a format that you might be able to fuckin' invent or play with. that I think is unique to you because your permission just because the way you're rolling. Like the Revolt conference, that Diddy just did down in Atlanta you know they're good panels and people talking real thoughtful shit or Complex Con. Like that thing, mixed with entertainment. There's something, I see it. I just think you need to mix into other entertainment pots. When I saw the Fallon thing I'm like, good, good. I'm like just like it's there for you. - [Man] I think a podcast would be easy for all you guys. Like, a baby podcast with like you, Chop, Tee Gee Kid, all four or five of y'all. - [Da Baby] With just a topic? - [Man] Y'all would just bullshit. - [Da Baby] Right. (mumbling) And then when you're like on tour and you just you bring on one guest like somebody that you're pop with or you want a feature on or you guys fuck with comes through. - [Man] I mean they talk shit nonstop. - To each other? - [Man] To each other. - Yeah of course. - [Man] Yeah but I mean it's entertaining as hell. - Of course it is.

Segment 7 (30:00 - 33:00)
- He suggested that we all need to put one of these on and shit. (crosstalk) - My man, on some real shit, you need to have a surgery and fucking implant that shit into yourself - I be a lot more open to it and I ain't living the wrong way no more so we don't, it don't matter anyways. - Honestly even-- Like honestly, you know, man. Yep you're right you're not and that's it - Alright for sure. So like what if every time we do it like I did last night when we was out on Time Square in front of the billboard, we plug up I put in the Lapel on so you would here people natural you know their natural conversation. - You need to have it on as often as fucking possible 100% I went like a fucking year and a half of having it on 15 hours a day. We really went hard. - [Da Baby] This type of conversation I ain't giving that up and I ain't ready to. - You don't want them to have the secrets. You need to execute them first. - [Da Baby] I mean I have them if they still, you know guess it ain't shit that you not giving out on a daily basis anyway - 100%. The funniest shit about my life is I'm literally giving it away. Like $0. 00. People fucking talk but people don't do. Everyone's gonna be a billionaire that's cool and then people sitting in the fucking room playing 2k. It's about the quickest way not to get to be a millionaire unless you're the best 2k player in the world and winning titles. You know? People just talk. You have humility. People don't see it. People see the bravado but doing those shows, you know any people hit like the way you just hit and stop doing the shows that you're still doing? - [Da Baby] Everybody. - I know. I do the same thing, I'm still doing it. 'Cause I'm more comfortable in the dirt. There's nothing else to say. say some second tier, third tier of school in Philly suburb that's fucking exactly right. Means you booked it a while ago and you're gonna fucking do your obligation. It means that, fuck it we're driving through anyway I'm gonna take the bag, means you like what you fucking do. People don't like to perform, no wonder their fucking backing out of shit and not doing it. They aren't actually good and or like it. I get paid fucking $200,000 to give a speech and it's a waste of my time and I still do it because I fucking love it. And I'm not confused that that's more money than I made the first seven years of my career, in one day. So that will never get away from me because exactly where I came from. But it's still not the right move for me but I do it 'cause I like it. (Hip Hop music)
