I'm with whatever. >> Okay. I'm [ __ ] up. >> All right. So, if somebody was trying to take the crown of Princess Agro, how would you feel? >> I feel like they'll need to back the [ __ ] up because like what you doing? I feel like ain't nobody else out here tweaking like me. >> Okay. >> And the upcoming rappers like the drill rappers or the YBS. I feel like nobody tweaking like me right now. So, >> yeah. >> People be trying to say like drill music is dying now. How do you feel? >> I feel like they need to shut the [ __ ] up and cut on some RB music. If you don't [ __ ] with drill, don't speak on drill, bro. For real. Like, stick to your category of music, bro. Cuz we don't come over there talking about y'all music. You got to realize like the way that people be making their songs, that's really how they be looking at life and [ __ ] Like, they be really talking about what be going on. So when you rapping, you talking about like real experiences or should they convince? >> And I feel like if a [ __ ] don't like my like specific uh sound of music, you just can't relate or you don't know what the [ __ ] I'm talking about. >> Okay. >> No problem. And that's okay, too. >> Do you feel like drill music isn't like an acquired taste? Like you have to like [ __ ] with it to really understand what's going on? >> Um, no. I feel like you don't got to [ __ ] I feel like you don't got to know what's going on with Geom music for you to like it because a lot of them people don't know what the [ __ ] them lyrics be meaning and they just like the song. So I feel like >> Yeah. But then it gets to a point where like everybody was like >> smoking this person that person then it gets very heavy. So it's like >> you kind of got to know what's going on. >> You ain't lying though. I feel like it depend on the song. >> Depend on the song. Yeah, I feel like >> cuz y'all be dissing heavy. Chicago is so crazy. >> No, we do be dissing the [ __ ] out of everybody though. I ain't going to lie. Chicago is one of them towns for that, bro. >> Chicago be dissing everybody. So, yeah. So, it was mad controversy when you did the song with Fully Chop. >> Do you feel like it was like a good controversy or bad controversy? >> I feel like it was good for me and [ __ ] >> Yeah. >> Oh, bro.

Like when I woke up that morning, I seen her drop a little trill and Non was in the back. She had the little dirty ass bonnet on and [ __ ] on little bro. I seen it. So, I'm like, "What?

No. So you not you don't care like with the controversy of like what's going on? Do you feel like you kind of black ballalled in a sense? I don't feel like I'm black ball, but I feel like [ __ ] whoever [ __ ] with me, whoever [ __ ] with me. >> Okay, >> that's what I feel like. >> Do you feel like you missed out on c certain opportunities because you don't [ __ ] with a lot of people? >> Yeah, I feel like I missed on missed out on some couple opportunities off the simple fact that who I'm making songs about. But I don't care cuz if they don't want to work with me, I'mma work with somebody else. I I don't really be giving no [ __ ] if people don't want to work with me or not. Like >> Mhm. >> I don't be in TW with them on no [ __ ] like that. >> Do you feel like the GD stuff is also why you black or you feel like it's just the aspen? >> No, I don't feel like it's cuz um GD on no [ __ ] like that [ __ ] They be showing love to me more. >> But I don't like a lot of GD artists didn't really get that far on some music [ __ ] That's why I >> Yeah, you ain't lying. But I don't even know another girl female GD rapper. >> I don't either. She definitely putting on right now. >> No, bro. That's what I'm saying. >> So that's heavy shoes to fill. So, do you feel like a lot of pressure is on you right now? >> I don't feel like no pressure on me for real because like I'm already at peace with this [ __ ] Like I don't know. I already have my little 3 month, four month run. So, it's like I know a little more that I didn't know when I first started rapping. So, >> so you feel like it's no pressure. You you on it? >> Yeah, I'm on it for sure. >> On top of it. I feel like again, I don't really, like you said, I don't know a lot of other female GD rappers. >> Okay. >> So, you got to set the bar. >> Okay. For real. >> You got to keep your foot on X. We got to keep it pushing. That's why I say it's kind of a lot of pressure because there ain't no other females. >> You ain't lying though. >> So, what's the advice to like other female artists that's trying to like get in this [ __ ] >> My advice to another female artist is [ __ ] go all the way, bro. Once you go, don't stop, G. Cuz soon as you stop and you give the next person another chance to take your spot, folk. That's what I feel like. So, when you go, be both feet in that [ __ ] and take it all the way. And if you don't have no support, it's okay to do [ __ ] by yourself. Like if you ain't got people to pull up to your music videos, rock out by yourself. Everybody can't come to the top anyway, folk. So >> you went through that like people wasn't trying to come to your video. >> Hell yeah. [ __ ] them up. I AIN'T GOING TO LIE. CUZ WHEN I get bigger, y'all going to be trying to come kick it.
