- Simi is my long lost friend.
He the one who told me to keep rapping.
I'm dropping this shit for him,
cause I want everybody to know his name.
He's the one who tell me to do this shit.
Like I wasn't no type of nigga to be dancing
and fucking around and rapping and shit.
I'm more on the skreets, but like one foot in, one foot out.
But he the one that make me put both feet in.
("Shoot" by BlocBoy JB)
- [Holmes] How did you come up with the Shoot dance?
- Basically, just being myself.
Going crazy, doin' dumb shit.
- [Holmes] Did you know that it would change your life,
that video, or that moment?
- Nah, I didn't even know, I just was doing my thing.
I just like to see myself on the video.
I was like, I took it serious but really,
I was like, ain't no way I'm gonna get rich off this shit.
Shit crazy.
("Look Alive" by BlocBoy JB and Drake)
- [Holmes] What's it like getting hit up
by Drake and him being like,
"Yo, I wanna hop, I wanna collaborate."
- That shit lit, it's lit, it's like a dream.
He could have did that to anybody,
and if somebody, they couldn't rap
or they didn't take it serious enough,
to go on in there and just do their thing and be them,
only he would have been like, "Ah."
It would have been just another song
that they played on the radio
and cut my verse off at the end.
He had posted me on his Instagram,
and I had come into 100 like any normal person would do,
you know what I'm sayin'?
And he fucked around and come and take some (bleep) back
in the DM like about 30 minutes or something.
- [Holmes] How did it feel that he came down
to your home town, like where you live,
and you brought him into your world,
instead of the other way around?
- That shit was crazy.
It was really like normal though.
It was like a normal day, just meeting somebody new.
A nigga I always wanted meet, shit don't happen like that.
Shit don't happen like that, too good to be true type shit.
You're thinking something else gonna happen like
when he was on his way, I was thinking like,
oh, what if the plane delayed or anything like
that type shit, just how crazy that shit.
- [Holmes] So I have to ask
about the Green Day shirt in the video.
Are you a fan of Green Day?
- Yeah, I fuck with Green Day.
Yeah, that shit was crazy, I was like,
that shit's like Drake, like unbelievable.
I had look at them to see, and like
"Hold on, is Green Day, is Green Day...
"They just re-posted this shit?"
- [Holmes] How did the collaboration
for Bad Company with A$AP Rocky come about?
- [BlocBoy JB] He was like, "Bro, you gotta do something
like it's mandatory," so he had sent me the beat.
It didn't have nothing on it.
It just was the beat, and he was like,
"Rap about bad company and bad vibes."
And I just went into the studio and just startin' rapping.
And then he like, I sent this to him,
and he was like, "I gotta get through it, like
about three days," that was it, he sent it to me.
And he dropped it like the next week.
- [Holmes] Recently, it was reported
that another great street crip, 03 Greedo,
got 20 years in prison, how'd you feel about that?
Have you ever listened to his music or...
- Yeah, that's my boy, Greedo my boy.
It's like, shit, I just hate
that the po be takin' a nigga's time.
I just hate, and I tell him, I be like,
"Man, you can't give these niggas no time.
"You can't give 'em no time."
Cause, man, them motherfuckers just give me their time,
they ain't never seen your side, the C.O.,
they ain't never see your side.
They just lock a nigga up and give him a year
and just basically on some other shit.
Like they don't give a nigga no chances.
Even though he done this and that,
nigga don't deserve no 20 year.
- [Holmes] On a lighter note, a lot of celebrities
have done the Shoot dance, you know Lil Uzi Vert's done it,
Drake's done it, a lot of people.
Who would you say, besides you,
what celebrity does it the best?
- Ooh, it's a tie, it's a tie.
Cause you got Uzi, he coming, he be coming for a nigga.
And then you got Odell though.
Odell, he got is leg back working so, he cold.
It's a tie, it's a tie.
Pump, proud of him like, I give Pump about uh...
He getting it, he getting it.
He's like about in fourth place, second or fourth place.
Purpp get fourth, Pump get third.
It's just a tie between, if Uz is just taking on,
I don't know who to pick, Uz or Odell.
- [Holmes] This is a nerdy question, but on Nun Of Dat,
you rap, "I'm pullin cards like its Yu-Gi-Oh!"
So I have to ask, did you watch Yu-Gi-Oh! as a kid?
- Yeah, I used to watch Yu-Gi-Oh!
It was on channel 13 when we had no cable.
We had no choice but to watch it.
We wanted to watch a cartoon.
- [Holmes] So I haven't heard the mixtape yet,
but for fans, what can they expect from it?
Cause you know, you can do club records.
You can do street records, you can do party records.
What type of vibe did you set with it?
- Every last thing you said, all type of records, man.
Just beats that be jumpin, and I got some lyrical shit too.
I got some shit that you can just drive your car to.
I got some shit, some, a lot of wordplay in it.
I got a song that's just scrape and wordplay.
It's called Left Right, I like that song.
It's like a song that like put me in my lil' zone.
(upbeat, pop music)
