It's In the Field Radio y'all.

00:00:11.407 --> 00:00:17.710
Everything's real in the field On 91.3 FM WVKR.

00:00:17.710 --> 00:00:19.658
Here it goes a little hip-hop.

00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:21.426
Alright, welcome back to In the Field Radio.

00:00:21.426 --> 00:00:22.422
I'm Aaron Boogie.

00:00:22.422 --> 00:00:23.425
I'm here with Miss Lady D.

00:00:25.001 --> 00:00:26.105
What's going on?

00:00:26.780 --> 00:00:28.286
And we got G-Slab in the building.

00:00:29.161 --> 00:00:30.166
What up, what up, what up.

00:00:31.568 --> 00:00:32.719
Thank you for sitting down with us.

00:00:33.683 --> 00:00:34.688
No problem, no problem.

00:00:35.601 --> 00:00:39.984
Okay, so first question for those that might not be familiar with you who is G-Slab?

00:00:41.140 --> 00:00:59.898
G-Slab is a father artist, black as hell, from Nashville out east, probably like anybody else, from some type of hood, some type of neighborhood.

00:00:59.898 --> 00:01:02.567
You know what I'm saying, trying to figure it out.

00:01:03.932 --> 00:01:04.680
What stones are you wearing?

00:01:06.444 --> 00:01:08.290
I don't wear an eccentric in amethyst.

00:01:09.281 --> 00:01:09.924
What do they do?

00:01:11.201 --> 00:01:14.719
The eccentric helps creativity and keeps me in a positive mood.

00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:18.450
Amethyst protects me in a steered negative way.

00:01:19.743 --> 00:01:21.204
Okay, I'm impressed.

00:01:21.204 --> 00:01:22.680
You knew that right off the top.

00:01:23.487 --> 00:01:24.638
And they're attached to my Cuban.

00:01:24.638 --> 00:01:29.451
So you know, as my nigga, as my nigga, muggle, you know what I'm saying.

00:01:29.451 --> 00:01:32.028
So you gotta have balance in that shit.

00:01:32.861 --> 00:01:33.703
Yeah, I love it.

00:01:33.703 --> 00:01:38.269
Never leave the house without your crystals, because VBS can't protect your soul.

00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.503
Okay, and balance.

00:01:41.503 --> 00:01:42.906
You gotta have balance in life.

00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:44.843
I have a tattoo on my leg.

00:01:44.843 --> 00:01:46.341
It's balance.

00:01:46.341 --> 00:01:47.387
So yeah, that's a fact.

00:01:47.921 --> 00:01:48.503
What is it?

00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:55.671
I have two triangles to intersect and then so it means, like a old tribal meaning of balance.

00:01:56.361 --> 00:01:56.843
I love it.

00:01:56.843 --> 00:01:58.709
So how long have you been making music?

00:02:00.260 --> 00:02:06.272
I've been making music probably since I was like 16, but I always feel like I've probably taken it seriously.

00:02:06.272 --> 00:02:10.250
Seriously, I like 20, 23.

00:02:10.740 --> 00:02:12.085
And who are some of your influences?

00:02:13.320 --> 00:02:14.984
I'm a, I mean, I'm just like everybody else.

00:02:15.044 --> 00:02:15.846
I like the little ones.

00:02:15.846 --> 00:02:17.449
I love JZ's, I love Wayne.

00:02:17.449 --> 00:02:22.579
I'm from the south, so I love every Southern type motherfucker that everybody love.

00:02:22.579 --> 00:02:23.984
Matt P Fan.

00:02:23.984 --> 00:02:24.604
I'm a Wayne fan.

00:02:24.604 --> 00:02:31.960
Tia fan, I'm a little ice cube from the West Coast, scarface fan, ugk Like.

00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:42.031
But the albums that made me start wanting to rap for real, for real, was the Things we Missed About Joe Wail's and Tana and the Becoming by Vinny Segal.

00:02:42.031 --> 00:02:47.150
So both of those albums like maybe really, really, really, really want to do that.

00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:49.461
That's awesome.

00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:53.417
Now how often do you come to New?

00:02:53.456 --> 00:02:53.658
York.

00:02:53.658 --> 00:03:01.592
I'm back and forth, like I didn't go to the tribal because of the pandemic last year but I was there in 2019 three times.

00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:06.104
But I saw that's where you met um.

00:03:06.104 --> 00:03:12.454
That's where you met Dave Juan Thomas in New York.

00:03:13.441 --> 00:03:14.743
I met him in Nashville.

00:03:14.743 --> 00:03:15.746
Actually he was on.

00:03:15.746 --> 00:03:26.332
He was doing some vibe magazine that was going around the country looking for artists Like being like their, like teacher, I guess, a becoming an artist, and I wasn't even at the event.

00:03:26.332 --> 00:03:52.847
I was at the career of drinking Jack Daniels and a promoter and magazine owner told me to come down there and him and another independent artist, my boy, coppo and D Goods they both tick my phone like they come down here, dude, here in Curge of Music, when they were you at Got the DJ of Chaboboy, dj Hybrid, just played song One of my records called hey, hey, hey, and he loved that.

00:03:52.887 --> 00:03:56.699
And he played another song called East Side Three Times and we played both of those.

00:03:56.699 --> 00:03:58.747
Dave's going like who's this?

00:03:58.747 --> 00:04:01.294
And I saw this kind of meme hunger came down there.

00:04:01.294 --> 00:04:10.836
We drove down there to the video that was there At a place called Bass, with Each Woman Known but called that, and then he liked it.

00:04:10.836 --> 00:04:14.756
He said, uh, whatever, you New York man, come through, I took that shit and invite.

00:04:14.756 --> 00:04:16.571
You know what I'm saying.

00:04:16.571 --> 00:04:17.817
So all right.

00:04:18.019 --> 00:04:18.723
Look at the article.

00:04:18.723 --> 00:04:19.706
Said they flew you out.

00:04:21.601 --> 00:04:28.144
Well, I just, I just went out there and he embraced me really good though, like really embraced me.

00:04:28.144 --> 00:04:29.327
We did that.

00:04:29.327 --> 00:04:30.451
He lead me up with a producer.

00:04:30.451 --> 00:04:35.704
He rocked with King Henry and we did a project called Favor ain't fair.

00:04:35.704 --> 00:04:41.692
They featured that project and they married me as well after they featured me like in a several articles.

00:04:41.692 --> 00:04:44.276

What do you mean?

00:07:31.565 --> 00:07:35.528
Let me go to much like always get the actual definition.

00:07:35.528 --> 00:07:45.244
Watch this because it's so like high quality, it's like where we at, because it comes right in my dictionary Attractive and impressive to being richly colorful and sumptuous.

00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:47.161
I like that.

00:07:47.161 --> 00:07:49.449
Yeah, I like that right.

00:07:50.100 --> 00:07:51.444
So we drop that.

00:07:51.444 --> 00:07:54.903
We just drop that on Friday you know what I'm saying.

00:07:54.903 --> 00:07:57.766
Doing crazy man, people rocking with it.

00:07:57.766 --> 00:07:58.148
Man.

00:07:58.148 --> 00:08:07.172
I did drop another project a month before, called because I can I've got the merch, everybody's rocking with the merch out because I can.

00:08:07.172 --> 00:08:11.550
Being video is like a video mini movie.

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:13.384
I was just gonna say that's like.

00:08:13.384 --> 00:08:18.632
That video was like a mini movie, not a music video.

00:08:18.632 --> 00:08:21.266
How did people come up with the concept for that?

00:08:22.019 --> 00:08:27.661
I was smoking and I was just listening to the song I always wanted to do.

00:08:27.661 --> 00:08:33.490
I always wanted to do like kind of direct a little bit and do crave direction.

00:08:33.490 --> 00:08:53.043
So I wrote a script me and my director locked in, we did stuff and things like that and I wrote a script, I got the scenes together and we shot it like and just over a course, while the pandemic was going, we had to get schedules right and that's why I took a little long to come out and stuff like that.

00:08:53.043 --> 00:08:54.368
But it was worth it.

00:08:54.368 --> 00:08:55.610
It was worth it for all the dates.

00:08:55.610 --> 00:08:56.221
It was worth it.

00:08:56.221 --> 00:08:58.389
Like it came out exactly how we wanted it.

00:08:58.751 --> 00:08:59.499
And we're working on it.

00:08:59.499 --> 00:09:02.164
You sound like you had me weak.

00:09:04.068 --> 00:09:06.134
Yes, look.

00:09:06.779 --> 00:09:12.607
It sounded like Batman, which part the fight sounds.

00:09:13.269 --> 00:09:14.312
Oh, yes, we were doing it.

00:09:14.312 --> 00:09:17.427
Yeah, like combo, that was the plan.

00:09:17.427 --> 00:09:21.941
So like a movie, music, comic book, like you know what I'm saying, like.

00:09:21.941 --> 00:09:30.461
And the next one we're doing we're working on the part two Hold different record, of course, but we're working on part two, so we gonna keep that going like a whole universe.

00:09:30.461 --> 00:09:36.150
I'm big in the comics and stuff like that, so I'm being in comics and wrestling, so like I feel like Stan Lee right now.

00:09:36.150 --> 00:09:37.355
So we gonna keep doing, keep it going.

00:09:37.355 --> 00:09:38.120
You know what I'm saying.

00:09:39.563 --> 00:09:41.549
What was your favorite memory from the video shoot?

00:09:44.366 --> 00:09:52.609
I can't lie, all it was fun man from behind the scenes stuff to doing photo shoot for it to in-proper scenes.

00:09:52.609 --> 00:09:55.475
I guess the Stevie Wonder part was really fun.

00:09:55.475 --> 00:09:57.059
That was probably one of the fun part.

00:09:57.059 --> 00:10:03.764
But even the fate beating dude up because you know what I'm saying Like show people, like we can take women you know what I'm saying.

00:10:03.764 --> 00:10:05.414
Out here you can do it, so that's what they were for.

00:10:05.414 --> 00:10:05.857
Like you know what.

00:10:05.898 --> 00:10:09.210
I'm saying Comic way of trying to display that type of action.

00:10:09.210 --> 00:10:12.183
You know what I'm saying, like type things Out of my boy played the villain.

00:10:12.183 --> 00:10:12.706
You know what I'm saying.

00:10:12.706 --> 00:10:15.503
Out of the most griller they had to play the misabuse guy.

00:10:15.503 --> 00:10:17.086
He's a great guy in real life.

00:10:17.086 --> 00:10:18.309
You know what I'm saying.

00:10:18.309 --> 00:10:20.844
He's a fucking great guy in real life.

00:10:20.844 --> 00:10:27.004
But yeah, we want to show that you know what I'm saying In a good comical light way.

00:10:27.004 --> 00:10:28.749
You know what I'm saying that you know what I'm saying.

00:10:28.749 --> 00:10:32.706
Shit not cool, all that type stuff, but it was fun.

00:10:32.706 --> 00:10:33.768
I mean, I hope it was fun.

00:10:33.768 --> 00:10:35.230
Man dressed up for it.

00:10:35.230 --> 00:10:38.948
After a while we're in the same clothes over again for a week since I got a little born.

00:10:38.948 --> 00:10:40.202
But that's about it.

00:10:40.202 --> 00:10:46.687
Like I'm trying to wear any same, I gotta keep watching these pants and shirt over and over again so I don't smell like outside yesterday.

00:10:46.947 --> 00:10:51.306
But and so Triple Beam dropped on your project last summer.

00:10:51.306 --> 00:10:53.991
How did the pandemic affect dropping an album?

00:10:55.380 --> 00:10:59.453
It affected, right in the middle of it.

00:10:59.453 --> 00:11:01.159
But we were trying to figure out.

00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:06.171
At first I didn't feel like putting music out because I didn't feel like I had anything substantial to say.

00:11:06.171 --> 00:11:09.024
This was what was going on.

00:11:09.024 --> 00:11:15.905
Pandemic Fire is everywhere, amazon on fire, like this whole bunch of the world is in a disarray.

00:11:15.905 --> 00:11:20.403
Police from Tauti Trump was doing all this.

00:11:20.403 --> 00:11:25.052
Just a whole bunch of Just a whole bunch of A lot going on.

00:11:25.822 --> 00:11:42.179
Yeah, man, I didn't feel a right saying that, but after a while I feel like I need to say something and you get something out of my chest Not even it was in the most direct for this situation, but just to have something on my soul and then we put a bonus record on the project.

00:11:42.179 --> 00:11:44.793
People keep listening to the last song.

00:11:44.793 --> 00:11:46.159
It's like a dead space.

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:56.144
And then another song coming along that addresses a lot going on, so like it's directly talking about what's going on that time and all that type of shit I call Trump rapist and all that type of shit and song.

00:11:56.186 --> 00:11:57.610
So all that great stuff.

00:11:57.610 --> 00:11:59.505
It's like a hidden track.

00:11:59.527 --> 00:12:00.793
So, yes, hidden track on there.

00:12:00.793 --> 00:12:01.517
You know what I'm saying.

00:12:01.517 --> 00:12:06.360
So if you listen to the hidden track on there, sleep and Giant, yeah.

00:12:06.360 --> 00:12:07.986
So I did think that you just felt right, put it out.

00:12:07.986 --> 00:12:11.004
It got good reception, just was paying.

00:12:11.004 --> 00:12:18.772
We couldn't really do, we couldn't capitalize on far doing shows and doing things like that to make it a full thing.

00:12:18.772 --> 00:12:23.590
So but now we, we, we, we, we were dropping where we got.

00:12:23.590 --> 00:12:26.163
We got some things going In the years will be good.

00:12:26.163 --> 00:12:28.910
Next year is going to be a lot, a lot more heavier.

00:12:28.910 --> 00:12:29.942
You know what I'm saying.

00:12:29.942 --> 00:12:30.544
So we just work.

00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:34.070
And so, aside from music, you're a mentor in the community.

00:12:34.070 --> 00:12:35.823
You have believe in new opportunity.

00:12:35.823 --> 00:12:37.768
That's your lifestyle.

00:12:37.768 --> 00:12:39.467
Brand Multimedia company.

00:12:39.467 --> 00:12:45.029
So how did you get into that aspect of it?

00:12:45.932 --> 00:12:46.434
Maybe I'm born in it.

00:12:46.434 --> 00:12:50.455
So I'm born, born from out east, you know, from impoverished area.

00:12:50.455 --> 00:12:53.434
I'm from you know what I'm saying middle class, low middle class, project type area.

00:12:53.434 --> 00:13:03.893
So when you born in a man like some people, you know one or not, don't want everybody have to be growth in that type of situation, you know what I'm saying.

00:13:03.893 --> 00:13:09.345
So, and the period from that, you know what I'm saying we mentor, we do program.

00:13:09.345 --> 00:13:19.414
We had a program high school, um, satellite school type thing with kids come and learn real life stuff, cause you know everybody's like pull your silver body, boost traps and boom, boom.

00:13:20.298 --> 00:13:21.923
But now, like, what do they?

00:13:21.923 --> 00:13:25.434
What are the steps to do with the career or the passion you have?

00:13:25.434 --> 00:13:27.759
You want to do hair Cool?

00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:28.740
Great.

00:13:28.740 --> 00:13:30.082
You know what it takes, right?

00:13:30.082 --> 00:13:33.208
Okay, you don't, let's see what it takes.

00:13:33.208 --> 00:13:34.938
So you know what you're jumping into.

00:13:34.938 --> 00:13:36.322
Okay.

00:13:36.322 --> 00:13:37.424
You want to do broadcast?

00:13:37.424 --> 00:13:38.025
Great.

00:13:38.025 --> 00:13:41.414
You want to be proud of you Kudos?

00:13:41.414 --> 00:13:42.678
You know what it costs, right?

00:13:42.678 --> 00:13:46.434
Oh, you don't, let me show you.

00:13:46.495 --> 00:13:57.745
So you know what it takes to get where you want to go, if that's additional way of being a going to school and being a doctor, doctor, lawyer, or, best, want to be a rapper Like that's great, Like cool.

00:13:57.745 --> 00:13:59.006
I want to know this mission.

00:13:59.006 --> 00:13:59.729
It looked like though.

00:13:59.729 --> 00:14:08.475
So, beyond the glitz and glamour, you still got to be a real life person, like I still got to be a father, I still got to be human to people.

00:14:08.475 --> 00:14:16.567
So, beyond all the extra, like I want you to know, and we get mental guide, mentor and guys, we got to purchase the fitness, and they do that.

00:14:16.567 --> 00:14:25.365
And so we, we man, that's, that's, that's, you know, putting something else in the world besides that people.

00:14:25.365 --> 00:14:26.086
You have to do that.

00:14:26.086 --> 00:14:26.807
You know what I'm saying.

00:14:26.807 --> 00:14:28.250
Some form of fashion, you know what I'm saying?

00:14:29.277 --> 00:14:30.580
What does it mean to you to give back?

00:14:34.796 --> 00:14:35.158
I'm not.

00:14:35.158 --> 00:14:39.475
It's like a and it's not a duty, but it just feels like I'm just what I'm supposed to do.

00:14:39.475 --> 00:14:45.451
But I don't look at like, oh, I got feeling great of helping give back.

00:14:45.451 --> 00:14:55.471
I'm one of them, so it don't feel like I'm doing anything that I'm not supposed to do, because I was there looking at running around that here, looking at running around trying to figure something out.

00:14:55.471 --> 00:15:02.562
I was the key, getting the fights here, talking to girls, whatever he is, I was like I was that, doing that.

00:15:03.163 --> 00:15:06.475
And when a different generation I want to show them, show, show, especially young boys.

00:15:06.475 --> 00:15:20.265
It's a different way to do things the mistakes we did I'm 30, so mistakes I made when I was younger, and the things that we knew, and you ain't got to do those things Like you don't have to, you can actually just do it the right way all the time.

00:15:20.265 --> 00:15:22.029
It's cool to do it.

00:15:22.029 --> 00:15:25.849
It's a pay to be that way, like so pay to.

00:15:25.849 --> 00:15:26.475
You know what I'm saying.

00:15:26.475 --> 00:15:30.706
I'm into wrestling, I'm into anime, I'm into superhero, I'm into comic books and all that type of shit.

00:15:30.706 --> 00:15:38.408
But I didn't indulge in those pasts enough as long as I was younger because we didn't think that was what you did all the time.

00:15:38.408 --> 00:15:44.861
You did the other stuff, you did the bullshit, so just told them that you ain't got to always do that.

00:15:45.042 --> 00:15:45.945
You know what I'm saying.

00:15:45.945 --> 00:15:49.541
You can just do the stuff that it thrives, your heart, makes, you feel good.

00:15:49.541 --> 00:15:51.224
You know what I'm saying.

00:15:51.224 --> 00:15:53.927
Stuff like that, you know what I'm saying and still get money out for it.

00:15:53.927 --> 00:15:56.475
You can get a bag from it.

00:15:56.475 --> 00:16:00.585
You can go and do what you want to do with a passion and still be alive and have a livelihood at the same time.

00:16:00.585 --> 00:16:07.745
It's a way to do it all and not feel ashamed, to feel bad for winning and getting money and doing your passion.

00:16:07.745 --> 00:16:11.221
So that's like could I have a morning mantra?

00:16:11.221 --> 00:16:18.226
I say every morning on all my social media accounts literally like no matter what day don't count bad, my day was the day before myself.

00:16:18.226 --> 00:16:26.668
Wake up and expect a win, then accept the win and never feel guilty because you worthy of winning.

00:16:26.668 --> 00:16:33.976
Like there's no, there's nobody who's not don't deserve to win, whatever that win is for you.

00:16:33.976 --> 00:16:39.966
That don't mean you want the Bentley and the Ferrari and you want to have a mansion, and whatever that win is for you.

00:16:41.495 --> 00:16:44.320
You deserve to get a win and you worthy of getting that win.

00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:54.743
So that's just some message with life and all that with believing, with believing with opportunity, because you're like, yeah, one door closed, they do open now, but I need you to believe that the next door will open.

00:16:54.743 --> 00:17:00.413
That's how you get the opportunity and you can't exactly believe it's going to open.

00:17:00.413 --> 00:17:02.642
So that's what all they for me.

00:17:03.524 --> 00:17:04.406
I think that's beautiful.

00:17:05.590 --> 00:17:05.971
Thank you.

00:17:06.673 --> 00:17:08.684
All right, now we're gonna get into like the fun questions.

00:17:08.684 --> 00:17:12.480
So if you could collab with anybody, dead or alive, who would it be?

00:17:13.962 --> 00:17:36.981
Oh, wow, god dang, that's a meme right there Off in the same name, like nah, that's easy.

00:17:36.981 --> 00:17:50.657
But now I still want to do a song with a pop and I would still we talking just rap, and if we talking without rap, I wouldn't want to do something with a Luther Van.

00:17:50.679 --> 00:17:54.766
Dros, I love that one.

00:17:55.607 --> 00:17:56.528
Yeah, I like Luther.

00:17:56.528 --> 00:17:58.601
I be hominizing on certain things.

00:17:58.601 --> 00:18:02.527
I want, y'all want to talk to Luther and get some and me to hook me and get some back rounds.

00:18:02.527 --> 00:18:05.917
Man, you feel, understand, I go, I want fan Luther, though.

00:18:06.558 --> 00:18:07.921
I want fan.

00:18:08.481 --> 00:18:09.061
Luther, though.

00:18:09.061 --> 00:18:14.796
Right, I need fan Luther Joll with the Joll my boy.

00:18:16.278 --> 00:18:18.221
Who's a producer that you would like to work with?

00:18:20.046 --> 00:18:20.887
Missy, missy LA.

00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:23.883
Such a dope answer.

00:18:24.826 --> 00:18:25.670
Missy LA is my favorite.

00:18:25.670 --> 00:18:26.815

00:18:34.067 --> 00:18:37.849
I did another interview with somebody who said who you want to meet and have breakfast.

00:18:37.849 --> 00:18:42.926
I said I want to have a breakfast with Missy LA, so that's my girl.

00:18:44.290 --> 00:18:45.815
What is your recording process like?

00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:54.497
I'm usually by myself, with just me and the engineer who's ever working on the music wherever, like that.

00:18:54.497 --> 00:18:58.144

If you ain't gonna be contributing, you don't need to be here.

00:19:09.926 --> 00:19:11.844
You know what I'm saying.

00:19:11.844 --> 00:19:13.451
Unless you're giving good energy to y'all.

00:19:13.471 --> 00:19:16.930
I've had my brother who didn't hear my music, but he's got good energy for me.

00:19:16.930 --> 00:19:17.734

You know what I'm saying.

00:19:37.125 --> 00:19:40.411
Like, nah, we'll go back and do that, but that wasn't it right there.

00:19:40.411 --> 00:19:41.154
You know what I'm saying.

00:19:41.154 --> 00:19:42.520
Stuff like that.

00:19:42.520 --> 00:19:43.506
I love that.

00:19:43.506 --> 00:19:44.351

I don't drink when I record.

00:19:59.029 --> 00:20:01.919
I smoke, but I don't drink when I record.

00:20:01.919 --> 00:20:04.124
And yeah, that's about it.

00:20:06.394 --> 00:20:08.200
