I was coming to work with Alchemist to finish up our project, I’ll catch up with him in the morning.ĭo you and Alchemist usually record in the daytime? The other records were made in New Orleans over the last 3 days. I would've gone tonight, but Tone text back first. The records we have to the side in light of us just releasing Covert Coup to streaming, this project I have with him is in the same vein. I’d never say it's part 2, because that’d be a lot to try and emulate, the way people hold their project dear to them. It's nostalgic to the year it came out and what was going on in everybody's lives. To say I'm dropping part 2 to that is big shoes to fill. What were you going through in 2011 when it was recorded? My plan really is to create something equally impactful, but a completely different animal. Man, that was me not bitter with what’s going on in the industry and my experience with major labels, but it was me being a little more aware of what goes on in those situations. I wasn't mad at it at all, it was “okay, I know what’s going on.” I always refer to it as the way a machine would prefer an artist to fit into a certain mold.

That’s not what it’s about.ĭecades later, how does it feel to be one of the most successful independent artists in the game? It seems to me that on a major level, the labels would rather have their artist copy or emulate previous success from some other artist instead of being original. Well, it comes from staying true to myself. It’s a testament to any artist that’s starting out and thinking about changing their sound to become more successful. If it’s not in your heart, you don't have to do that. If you stay in the course, eventually the universe will work it out for you. The people who you’re making music for will catch wind of you. Your listeners, your base, your core audience, they'll support you. You'll get Rolls Royce’s if that's what you want.ģ6. We’re trying to do some shit right now so that number is tentative. I can't sell because that’s the time I did that. I have a warehouse in New Orleans that houses 30 of them.Ĭrazy that Covert Coup was recorded in 2011. Me and Alch were talking about this shit, I said “yo, I don’t think it’s on Apple Music.” We looked for it, and it wasn’t.
