#238 - RJmrLA

I think you know what's crazy? I feel like that you're the most consistent outside of Kendrick because we got to give it up to KTA, But I feel like consistency when I know you drop. I just know that there's a certain level of quality that comes with RJ. You think he's with I think Kendrick's fucking with everybody. So that's you know, just to be I mean, I'm

doing me a lot of you. I'm honesty. I just think, like when I think of like the City, I'm like, yo, I just know I'm getting quality of music from RJ, every fucking go, timeless music. And I think you're the best performer. Uh, I think you're top five performer in

hip hop to be honest, hip hop. Yeah, when I see you performed, bro, I saw you at the Real Street Fest which is like twenty nineteen as well, when we had our Real ninety two three festival you performed at and I was just like in owe, bro, Yeah, could you be fucking you be popping and locking and shitah, you got every movement that it reminded me of like early Tech nine, Like when I used to see Tech nine when I was a kid. Shout out to Tech

nine is another one of the greats. Tech would have like a movement for every fucking like bar and I feel like you're kind of similar you are you high right now? No, it's really the beats that that tell the story. Yeah, the other song of the movements, you know, the beats be so you know, like like you know it like yeah, you know what I'm saying. My beats really hit. How especially on stage, I was gonna say, how like you inspired your like performance game or did

you just figure that shit out on your own? I'm a students another game? Yeamn. When I was coming know, we used to watch a lot of a lot of artists perform. Yeah, one artists in particular was his Buster Rons. Of course, he made an announcement, you know, I said, artists need to start performing. Yep, and I took heat and I started studying performers, and uh, I just developed my own style. That's smart. And Bust is one of those ones. Man him and Spliff Star. You've seen him

live in person for fucking fire. Yeah yeah, yeah, Busters will go for sure. They just they just did. Uh wheveryday at l A was a Hollywood ball with nas was nas Buster Wu Tang clan. Yeah, shout out the bus, shout out kids though, because he spoke on him. He's a great performance too, amazing. Yeah did you go to the uh the the tour? I mean he had like seven days in LA. It was good. It was dope.

Kendrick is also one of those guys that can captivate a crowd without, you know, I think some people mistake screaming and jumping into a mosh pit and crowdsurfing and like just doing wild shit on stage with like good performing and like sure sometimes that goes over well, but I think like your breath control, how you sound, like how captivating you are without doing all the crazy antics on stage, to me is like very more. It's more important because like anybody can like throw shit and CrowdSurf

and yeah, I'll be looking at that like that's cool. Yeah, it's like cool. It's like cool if you can't perform and you're like wrapping over your fucking track, all right, it's cool. Yeah, you're wrapping over your two track, but you fucking jumped off of a speaker and you know, sprang your ankle, So everyone's like, Yo, you're a god bro, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, Yo, the album is dope, though, Man than you, I really I love the Tie record.

OT record is just super flagrantly fucking disrespectful without love. It was like a classic You got just a classic OT moment. Ye shout out my brother man OT shot out. What did he rhyme Vagina with on the song China, China and Vagina. Listen any song in which they rhyme China with vagina? It's amazing. Pelo has a song too short. He was talking about how to make a girl make money off of her pe hole, and I was like, I love that China Vagina. Love it? Yeah, you guys,

it sucks. So it's crazy because like I feel like somehow throughout the pandemic, I know the club scene is popping in l A again, But I feel like we kind of lost Like I kind of missed Playhouse. Does that make sense? We gotta understand a lot of the money left with the that pandemic. I just feel like, so it's not a lot of but I'm still like poppy. There's I feel like, you know, there's still spots like the LA function is though, like obviously Penthouse, but I

just like I missed Playhouse. I feel like Playhouse was like the spot where like you could go and like you could really have a temperature on what LA sounds like at the time. Well, like you know, one of the people who's in charge of a playoffs is that Dragonfly. Now, so I haven't missed it. I still got shit going on. It's just relocated. Yeah. So I'm the type of person since the pandemic, I've just decided I'm not going outside unless I'm getting paid or unless it's some ship where

I'm like it's the homie, I gotta go support. I'll be fucking tired, broke. I'm with the kids. I'm telling you know what I'm saying. How many songs like did you pull from for this project? Like, I know you've been recording for three years now, you know so was there, like, how many songs didn't make the album? Steven? Was there? I got a lot of songs, a lot, Yeah, it was, it was there. Okay, four songs from the entire like three years, it's what I have, you know, that stayed

on the album. And then the rest we was in this record plant for ten days. I think we recorded like probably like seventy five of the project. Yeah, like thirty songs or something like that. Shit. So there's four records on here that are older in terms of just the timeline of when you started recording in since the last album. Yeah, everything else you knocked out in that ten day period. Correct. Wow. Do you feel like you

ever become a victim of demo ititis? Where? Yeah, Because like artists will have songs where everybody will hear them, they're like, Yo, that's a fucking hit. But you listen to your own ship and your cruise, listening to your own shit so much that you it gets played out

to you. Well, not good songs are good songs, but more so when the songs are being mastered, we get demo artists and we could just be like, nah, it needs to sound like the demo true, or if like you the engineer, Like the engineer would be like, you know, cleaning it up, making it clean. But we like the rough We like the raw material. It happens a lot, you know what I'm saying. We like how it sound rough, but we just clean it up. Even if I give away to much sauce. No, that's a lot of that's

real sauce right there. I mean, I have an artist and we're just going through this album and there was like some shit got moved around like and I was like, yeah, nah, that's that's not how I know it to be, you

know what I mean. Especially I think that should be happening too, when like there's like a demo hook cut on someone's record and you have the demo version for so long, but so long, and then then the big artist gets on it and you're like, man, I don't know, yeah, well the big artists that got on these records, well all right. The Funny Ship we had a record that we did. We had two records that we did with

tar in the same day, and we just picked. We picked the one that we went with the special Delivery. That shit was like that shit was though both of them is fire. So what happens to the other one. Man, It's just this goes in the vault. You guys are like, uh, you know what I'm saying. I'd be like, yo, I want both. Yeah, if he wanted, he could have it, though I'm not stingy put it under the deluxe when it comes to tar Are you gonna do it lux?

I don't know. Yeah, it's kind of like mundane to me. Yeah, everybody doing the Deluxes and shit like that. I'd rather just do a whole other project. I love that. Just don't make us wait three years. Nah, I'm back in the in the bag now. I'm back in that emotion. So pretty much want to put out a lot of content. I don't want to oversaturate it, but I want to put out a lot of great content because you know, tomorrow's my promise. So facts, how many music videos do

you have in the can right now? Mm hm? We pretty much go with the flow videos. You kind of just let the fans tell you which which joins to shoot. I respect that. That's smart. Obviously, you've had a great relationship with Thug over time. Shout out to Young Doug free Man, Free slim Man, Free Free Dope, Free, Slan, Freak Gunner, Freedom, gods Man, Free, I Sail for Real, for real. He was on the last album, right, Yeah, you guys shout the video and everything. He's somebody who

I feel like super tapped in with your movement. I always hear just about how great of a guy he is, Like, he's very generous. How did you guys initially link up? We I'll perform. He was like, who's at He already knew who I was. He told me, he told me he already knewho I was. Also, you opened up on tour for him. Correct, it was you him and m g K. Correct. That was before I met him. Just after I met him, know right right right For people who don't know your guys' full history. Yeah, I met

him at Le Jardon. He was at La Jardan. They told me to pull up. I pulled up. I performed, Man, you know what I'm saying. I blew everybody away, per usual, and we you know, shook hands, turned up after that, and then it was cool after that, and then I met him again, got reacquainted with Jomoses. I was, you know, sliding around with Jomoses, Jomoses the Future et cetera. And you know that's the team Birder and all them that,

you know what I mean with the Slanes boom. And then as soon as I went to the studio, he just like you trying to record and then that's history and we just went from there and then put me on the tour. I went crazy. Was the every conversation that have you maybe come over to white self. Nah. He just always try to push my career forward, and that advised me to do, you know, make proper steps

and proper moves and shit. Things that work for him, things that don't work, you know, and just you know, blessed niggas with gang, I respect that a lot of our almost will only do that if they have the motive of trying to get you under their label at the end of the day, you know what I'm saying, the fact he does he did that like from a selfless point of view. So so I'll pick up on that too. Like I tell the people I'm with you

an gotta sign to me. Yeah, I would love you to sign with me if you're great, if you're a great talent, but they don't have to sign with me. It's just really a whoile being under an umbrella and you know, fucking with the squad and on that we family and we got your you know what I'm saying, got your back. Fully, Hey, what up, y'all?

Let's get back to the interview. How was it touring with MGK, who's another amazing performer. He dope too, He's dope. That had to be. That's a fucking crazy tour if we just think about the historical context of an r J MGK Young Thug tour. So was that twenty nineteen? So yeah, what I'm saying, Yeah, that was real, dope.

It was fun. You know, we got into a lot. Yeah, you know, he's a wild boy. I mean, I know he has a song called Another that wa ain't gettingto nothing too bad, ship like that. Like it's just typical tour ship, right, getting sucked up, going to different city, going to different stage, you know, being on the road and you know, and you know ship missing home things

like that. It's regular, you know, just turning up shit just given our full energy, you know what I'm saying, given one hundred and thirty two percent every city in every state. So that's pretty much what it'd be like. Talk to me about who is on the label? Oh amo, who's under the ameo and bro see they off top. He's been here before, so uh precrder three card stuff recorder? That your lady or my mother of my children baby mama? Okay, yeah, okay,

mother of my children. You're you're a mother of your children? Yes, yes, okay, so she's she's on there. She was on the Jeezy record too, right, correct, Mike Wayne Coppy Poppy Uh splack. We got another artist named Melody Melody Baby. Uh. He's an Egyptian and he just type got a dope as voice, got producers. That's just under the umbrella, you know. Harry j m hm uh uh, my boy man, we got him eighty nine with us, my boy Freddie Ruger and

we just you know, we're just flooding. Is there anything you learned because you had obviously league being under the ten suming I want to shout out GFO to g FO young Cat to shruy g for yeah, fuck you know what I'm saying, that's just family. I'm just speaking on people that just a lot of times I speak on just family and knowing that I you know, I want to, you know, share my platform. Why not you

feel me what you should do? Yeah, I'm not that type of person where you just like, if you ain't signing to me, I'm not fucking with you, no right type shit. I was gonna say, what did you learn from the ten summer situation that you're applying to AMEO? Because Mustard obviously is a fucking boss. You know what I'm saying. You guys put out some timeless music together. So was there anything you learned from that experience that you're applying to your own imprint? Now? Yeah, for sure,

I learned a lot from myself. I learned, you know, first hand, on how to deal with you know, situations, and you feel me even being involved with you know what I'm saying, who you involved with? It's just like you know always you know what I mean, do your you know what I mean, keep your best foot forward. You know what I'm saying. I wouldn't be in the game if it wasn't for usf me, he took a he single handedly took me under his wing and you know, shine shine a lot of light on you know what

I'm saying, and learned like the business too. You feel me being on your being on your boss standing on business. You know what I'm saying. Shit like that. It's real, dope. Oh a lot to him and every chance I give you know, I speak to you. But you know what I'm saying. That's why, you know, being independent, it's like it's kind of like easy for me. Not easy because it's a lot of weight on our shoulders and shit

like that. But you know, being independent, you know, we try to like, you know, tackle certain certain mainstream tactics. You know what I'm saying, right, take certain mainstream tactics and you know, go with the floor. You know, shit like that, you know, because you know, being independent, like you gotta do more of the work on the business work. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. It's a lot more work, it's a lot more tedious, but it's a lot more rewarding.

The payoff is worth it, yeah for sure. Because this is your second album since I guess leaving the Innerscope ship, right, yes, yeah, Actually my first album was my first album period on God was my first album period. I was when I was signed. I was only signed for uh two mixtapes, which was to those two projects, which was Mister La and the Ghetto. Everything else was ameo. Those were independent

early those are yeah, those are independent release records. Yeah, you feel me, so those ameo records is what you know. We have titles too, that's amazing, which keeps us afloat and keeps us going. I mean, you got some fucking classics, man, yea, some real classics. More well, a little bit above a float,

but yes, that's fair. Uh. You know what I appreciate about you is like one of the early things that had happened in La when I first moved out here was you and Grido did the first versus Correct, definitely, the first versus It was at the Novo Correct and the Observers. I guess you guys did do too. The first one was at the Novo though, right, the first one was Observe. Oh see, the first one. They thought

everybody was gonna die. Yeah. I mean I remember talking to Head and He's like, I'm not gonna be there, and I was like we should go, Like you know what I'm gonna listen to anything LA related. I just listened to head on. I'm like, you know what, you're right, head And it was a success. But it was so dope because I remember y'all going back and forth online and then you guys had this fucking incredible event where everybody was on stage and it just felt like, wow,

this is like, this is like history. Low key for sure, it was basically like you know, it was what Gucci and Jeezy did, but we did it because our ship was more like in the in the in the in the moment. It was in the moment. That's what made it different for sure. And the fact that there was no incidents is amazing. Yeah, for sure. Did you guys talk like before it went down, like, was there like a low meet up backstage? We will keep it respectful, we will make sure. No, we didn't know what was

gonna happen. What the fuck I was gonna whoop it ad? It was just organized chaos. But then we just like you know, kept it cool and I just playing. We talked about it, Yeah, we talked about it on the phone because it got out of hand. It got out of hand on the like on the internet, the internet, you know, always blows things over portion, and you know, when you don't have communication, you know, it up the nation. So you know, we talked about we uh shout out,

Well no oh nos is also an artist. My fault, excuse my fault, my fault. Little enough that he's also an artist for Ameo. But you know he's always been around, you know know, but him and Mafia Horn they got involved, and you know they Mafia Horn talked to Grito Knows to talk to me, and we got on the phone. And when we got on the phone, it was like, you know, it was it was like that, you know what I'm saying. Initially, yeah, but you know, they talk

to us, talk some sense into us. And then you know what I'm saying, we carry out the show and kept it going because it's really bigger than us. Yeah, And sometimes, you know, being in the moment, you don't understand that. Sometimes, being in the beef, you don't understand that it's bigger than you. You got the focus right now, people on you. Right now. They're perpetuating this beef, they perpetuating it and making it blow up. But it's bigger

than you. You know, it's more about a whole you feel me in what both of y'all represent, and it could be detrimental. So like, sometimes you gotta rise above yourself and rise above the situation and really like see yourself above it and see the whole game and look at yourself from a bird's off view, and you know, then moved up, move accordingly. You know what I'm saying. So that's what we did. We just seen ourselves birds off view and moved accordingly. And we made money off

that shit. That was like my first fifty thousand dollars show. Wow, no cap, get me fifty bands off the show? I did shit. Shout out to you. What's a good fucking day the show, that's a great day. What show was at the Novo and we had two of them. Jesus salute the show.

Let's get back to the interview you mentioned. Stepping outs is so hard for people to remove themselves from their own situation and try to look at it from like an ouse

point of view. Yeah. So I got on my side though, too, and I got good people around me. Don't want to see me win because they know if I win, they win. Yes, I feel like it's it's uh, you know, that's part of growing up to man like you because you're always gonna have like a biased opinion on what's going on because you're in it. But if you could just look at it from like how it looks at from the outside, like you you you know a lot of people make

short sighted decisions because they don't do that correct. Do you feel like nowadays you're kind of like a big homie in la, you know what I mean? So do you find yourself like giving game the artists that you see that you admire, that you might maybe see fucking up or moving like a way in which you might just be able to like, hey, let me give you some game, real quick type shit all the time? Most definitely I'll give game a lot. It's just a you know,

I apply it. What is you gonna use it though? Yeah? Like I might tell you about it, but are you gonna like listen? Yeah, Like I'm not really into what it's in my breath because your energy on my energy, you know, So I sort of picked certain times when to speak it. Otherwise you're just trying to hear yourself speak like an old head trying to hear yourself talk, you know. Sometimes being wise, it's not saying nothing at all,

feel me. So sometimes you just got to pick the win, the right time to say, the right time to speak. So I just you know, so like you know, I pop it a little bit, you know, give my game, but you know you gotta know how to give it though, you know what I'm saying when and when exactly, you know, and being a big homian being like you know these niggas, some niggas like my little brothers. I get mad too, right, and I lose sometimes I could lose my cool and

jump out of character too. I'm you know, I'm human too, So you know, I fuck up, players fuck up. But at the end of the day, like it's about you know, recovering and just like you know what, be manning up and be like, hey, look man, I fucked up. You know this is how I should have can you know what I'm saying? So being a big homie like I have to, you know, I got to take on those certain roles. When I was younger, it's just like fu right you feel me, like I don't care like they

got my bad. But now that I'm older, I realize that people and IM just older, just wiser. I realized that people have to like like like people have to understand you can't just be out here popping ship and you just look like an old head. It's not cool. Like I know how we use respect you? Yeah, when people got to respect you if you, like you said, if you don't always speak, when you do speak, it

carries more weight, true, you know what I mean. And they also have to like respect you to listen for sure, you know what I mean. You just can't put put your arm around some young kid that you just saw on Instagram be like hey man, you're sucking up bro, and like fuck out here, bro. Yeah yeah, that's real, yo. What it's like for you because obviously l A is you know, you have Like I said, man, you got classics. Bro. When you look at the metrics, what is your biggest

market outside of the state of California. I don't know. I think I need to pay more attention to that. You're gonna put that back in on Spotify, man. Yeah? What about like when you were on I like last time you're on tour, did you notice like a random city where were like, oh, ship, they were really fucking with me even so and so or whatever. It's hard to tell because my energy is everyone's with you want something's done. It's like everybody fu My energy is electrophone. Yeah,

so they fuck with me. It's hard to tell, like if they knew the words already and my songs are you know, I know how to tell hooks, I know how to tell a story. I know how to speak to the audience, you know, so I can get them to say what's going on? Because you know, I'm saying my message is pure. So like it's kind of hard as far as when I'm performing and touring. But honestly, I do need to pay more attention to who's what market, what cities is really fuck with me because I want

to tackle these cities more. You know. I'm in la Head of course, be out here, you know, trying to you know, I deal with the same pains that my homies deal with. I'm not gone, I'm not too far, I'm not far fetch. I'm you know, I'm here. They can touch me and shit. So it's kind of like I deal with the same depths, the same joy, the same accomplishments, you know what I mean, Like when my homies is up and they win and I see that

and I feel that you feel me. So I'm just right here, so I feel like mm hmm, sometimes you can be trapped. Do you feel like you sometimes you can get lost in the sauce of l A and not think of like the country, because I feel like sometimes I could never be lost in sauce man. Well you know I don't mean listen, I'm not talking about from a Gucci man perspective. Can't you could never be lost? He could, he could have sauce, but he could be you know what I'm saying. If you don't got sauce,

you lost in the sauce. You feel me like, do you ever feel like do you ever feel like you know what's going on? Like you you could focus too much on l A and and let and and at times let the bigger picture fall by the wayside, because I do feel like sometimes an l A artists we see like a ceiling get hit and it's like yo, we know you're lit from here to Seattle, Arizona, Vegas sometimes Texas. But like I think sometimes like l A artists are so like focused on l A that it's

not I'm not even talking about sonically. I just mean, like you said earlier, like damn, I need to pay attention more, like you know something that Kaylen did early on that I loved. Was like he just went out to Atlanta for like six months. You know, Yeah, he was out there like he was out there, you know what I mean. He tapped in with a lot like I saw that from the jump and I was like, oh, that's that's something I see a lot of people doing that.

Blue Bucks do that. Yeah, you know he does, you know, definitely does that. Kaylen of course did that. Another person who did at Massie did that ship big time. You know what I'm saying, he did that, But I don't know, bro, you know ship, I'm having fun. That's all that matters. Feed your family, feed my family. I'm having fun. I'm enjoying life. I'll cross those you know what I'm saying once when I get throw those crossroads. And for sure, I do need to pay attention to it though, for sure,

you know what I'm saying. And when I get there, I'll get there. But right now, I got right here to deal with. You know, it's people that I have to deal with. I have to, you know, make sure they straight. I have to make sure people is saying times. You know what I'm saying. Sometimes when I'm going too long, you know, shit fucks up, you know what I'm saying,

the ruptures and ship like that. Like so I hold a lot of shit together and I stand on that and I could I could you know what I'm saying if if you know, if see if they blow up and he gets you know what I'm saying to you know, uh, New York and all that shit for Shure, that's I'm a we we We're there, you know. I feel like too, Like sonically, he's like an artist that I can see that really happening with right. I feel like he has that young soul that uh the world needs mm hmm.

I feel like he has that that that hunger that the world needs to you know what I'm saying experience for sure. You know what if you had to pick a song that you can never perform again, what would be the song you're just kind of tired of performing, tired of performing? Or is it none? Yeah? I don't know, because when I came in game, I came you know, making songs or like which song of yours is the

most played out to you? Yeah, like a song where you're like, yo, if I never heard this song from me again, It's fine because I've heard it a million times, like does it get rich? Is it like or is it you just like? No? These are like you know, some artists are like what I'm saying, You got some fucking huge records and do they get played out to you? No? No, Okay, I gotta ask. No, it's a complet compliment. I'm trying to compliment. I appreciate you, my brother. I can talk

to you what you trying to say, Bren. I can talk to you, you know what I'm saying. I can be upfront. I can be real with you, you know, because sometimes you know, question be hitting shit in questions. You'll hear like I'm like, you'll hear artists be like, yo, I'm so fucking sick, and like I'm sure Roddy Rich is tired of the box, you know what I mean? He has to be. There's no way Roddy's not tired of the box, at least personally. For me, I'm tired of the box. And I don't have to perform it.

I don't know, because like people ask me questions like this all the time, right, and they'd be it'd be like new people with me, Like it'd probably be a new security, new bodyguard with me or something like that, right, or just new people and they'll just be at all at what's going on, you know, because you know it'd be fans running up and RJ let me get a picture random times and shit like that, and they ask

me do we'll ever get tired of that? And it's like they cannot be running up to me, right, you know, like I cannot be performing these songs true, you know, so no, I love these songs. These songs just feed my family, these songs just making sure my kids grow strong, right, you know what I mean. I love these songs.

like he's still the top guy. But like I'm not sure at a certain point in time, like Drake had more energy than fifty or Snoop, Like track just stood at the times. So it was just crazy.
