inspired and he asked me to give him a copy, so
I gave him the last copy I had on me and
walked away. It was the dopest moment
of my life. Something I created, he got a
chance to look at. I called Wili right after
and we were yelling over the phone turnt
cause we both listen to his music. I wrote
that song like 4 months after that happened with no beat. JaqueBeatz came to
the crib and started playing the keys as
I rapped each verse and Wili added
the drums and the song was made.
What is your goal with
making your music, Do
you want to reach
ultimate fame, gain
luxuries or something
deeper than those named?
I guess something deeper because the
fame and luxuries aren’t real and at
some point both look like they suck a**.
With ultimate fame, you don’t know who
is being real with you, everyone makes
lies about you to make money off of you,
and on top of that you can’t grocery shop
anymore.
Luxuries are cool but it takes so much to
maintain it, and the IRS takes everything you
own too (most of the time) or at least tries to
do so. I want to make a connection with people
by making the soundtrack to people’s live, help
add to the culture that helped me when I was
growing up. Your craft can help people in many
ways no matter how you look at it. My craft made
me loosen up and made me not hide my face.
I’m not even on yet at all I’m still building I would
say I’m local, but there are actually people from
other states that hit me up saying my music
helped at some point which is still crazy to
me, but then again I’m just creating I’m
not listening to it from their perspectives.
I don’t know how my music will help
millions, or do deeper things, but
there is something that’s
supposed to happen out of all
this [laughs]. There is a
purpose, hopefully I find it
out soon.
How did East Chain
Records come about?
Do you think Chain
Records has the
potential to be better
than (or the next)
formerly known
label, “So, So, Def”?
One day me and Wili
Hendrixs was on the way to
his big sisters baby shower
and he told me “I want to
start my own label, kick
down doors ourselves instead
of waiting” and I been with
it, I always tried to do stuff
like that. So a few hours later
trying to come up with names
for it, I said “East Chain”. East
for Eastside, Chain for Golden
Chain Drive, which is where all
my music has been made.
