On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky sit down with rising R&B artist Twin Hector for a candid, inspiring conversation about his journey from Dayton, Ohio to Atlanta—and into the national spotlight. Twin Hector opens up about his lifelong connection to music, sharing how he and his twin brother wrote their first school anthem as kids, which led to early recognition and support from teachers and classmates.
From those grassroots beginnings, Twin and his brother took social media by storm in high school, eventually notching a platinum record and hundreds of millions of streams. But success wasn’t without setbacks: Twin discusses weathering bad business deals, transitioning into a solo career, and how he’s finding joy—and that signature ‘90s R&B vibe—on his latest single “I Like It.” He reflects on staying true to his roots, keeping a positive mindset through adversity, and what it really takes to keep pushing forward in the music industry.
Plus, Twin Hector drops an exclusive about his surprise new album (you heard it here first!) and shares heartfelt advice for aspiring artists about perseverance, authenticity, and trusting your own path—no matter what. You’ll walk away from this episode reminded why you fell in love with music in the first place.

Okay. Dude, I was. I was one month away from being born
137
00:08:35,170 --> 00:08:38,930
in Dayton, Ohio. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. My
138
00:08:38,930 --> 00:08:42,730
dad, mom, they're from Ohio. They moved to
139
00:08:42,730 --> 00:08:45,330
Dayton. My dad got a job. They went to Bowling Green
140
00:08:46,689 --> 00:08:50,530
in Ohio, and my mom was nine months
141
00:08:50,530 --> 00:08:54,250
pregnant with me. And my dad got his job, transferred him
142
00:08:54,250 --> 00:08:57,170
to San Diego, California. He didn't even know where the hell it was. He looked
143
00:08:57,170 --> 00:09:00,690
on the map, he's like, well, that's far away from Dayton. I'm down. Oh, man.

00:09:01,010 --> 00:09:04,310
And they moved to San Diego ago, and. And I was born the next month
145
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:08,030
after. That's crazy. Yes. I was this close
146
00:09:08,030 --> 00:09:11,270

00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,480
You were actually, you know, born in that hospital or not. You still
154
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,160
were conceived in the same energy I was conceived in. Yeah.
155
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,720
That's so wild, man. So you
156
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,920
guys moved to Atlanta. You said that. How old are you when you moved to
157
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,680
Atlanta? Moved to Atlanta at the age of
158
00:09:56,010 --> 00:09:59,770
maybe, like, 11. Okay. Yeah. You spend the first. Yeah.
159
00:09:59,930 --> 00:10:03,450
Bit of time. Yeah. In Dayton. Oh,

00:10:06,570 --> 00:10:10,290
We. We ran the dating streets. Really. Really, you know, really tough
162
00:10:10,290 --> 00:10:13,850
as kids, you know, it wasn't, you know, all this iPhones
163
00:10:13,850 --> 00:10:17,530
and androids and. And PlayStations as much as it
164
00:10:17,530 --> 00:10:20,650
was. It still wasn't about that growing up for us, you know what I mean?
165
00:10:20,650 --> 00:10:24,450
We was outside. We was, you know, trying to beat the street lights, you know,
166
00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:27,370
I mean, trying to, like, spending the Entire days
167
00:10:28,090 --> 00:10:31,690
playing ball at the park with the entire neighborhood coming
168
00:10:31,690 --> 00:10:35,090
through, you know what I'm saying? We, we. We was riding our bikes, you know,
169
00:10:35,090 --> 00:10:36,810
we was trying to get around, you know what I mean?
170
00:10:41,930 --> 00:10:45,570
But it sounds like you guys were musical like from a very early age. Like,
171
00:10:45,570 --> 00:10:49,370
was that something that you're, you're, you know, your mom or your dad or
172
00:10:49,370 --> 00:10:53,200
somebody was like, wow, like they're, you know, you and your, your brother were like
173
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,800
very, you know, gifted with this. Is that something? Sure,
174
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,040
yeah. Lessons or anything like that?
175
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,080
No, it was, I told you it was a, it was really a
176
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,840
natural based timeline, you know what I mean? Like, you
177
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,480
know, we just had, you know, un, you know, unfathomable amount of
178
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,160
support from, from my, from my mom, you get what I'm saying? And family being.
179
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,920
You get what I'm saying? So everyone, everyone just always fully
180
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,760
supported us, you know what I mean? Like, shoot, rather we were good or not,
181
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,520
you know what I mean? But everybody really, you know, applauded us, you know,
182
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,880
as if, as if they were in awe. So, you know, that was, that was
183
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,640
all the spirit, you know, spirit needed for us to just keep
184
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,360
going and keep trying and keep, you know, just, just, you know,
185
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,120
keep rocking out. And so were you guys. You
186
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,380
guys must have been doing that in Dayton area right before you had moved. You
187
00:11:45,380 --> 00:11:49,220
were in the day. They have a very popular song before
188
00:11:49,220 --> 00:11:52,580
we left. And then we was like 10, 11 years old.
189
00:11:52,660 --> 00:11:55,780
Serious. Really? What song was that?
190
00:11:56,580 --> 00:12:00,020
It was actually like. It was, it was in our school, you know what I
191
00:12:00,020 --> 00:12:02,660
mean? Like, we had made up like a, like a, like a chant, you know
192
00:12:02,660 --> 00:12:05,340
what I mean? Because we went to a school called Meadowdale, you know, like, we
193
00:12:05,340 --> 00:12:09,020
don't stop, man. We don't fail. We the heck the boys. Red
194
00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:12,640
Meadow. Damn. I know you still know it.
195
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,360
That's so good. Okay. It was crazy. Like, all the principals
196
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,840
and teachers used to have us come to freaking go come to come sing the
197
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,360
song like for every lunch and all kind of. But it was crazy.
198
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:24,800
That's amazing, man.
199
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,840
So that's pretty much how it's being, man. It's just, just a, just a ball
200
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,680
of fun, you know what I mean? Ultimately, that's. That's what it's about, man. We
201
00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:38,410
just, just having fun, man. I'm just doing what,
202
00:12:39,290 --> 00:12:42,730
you know, I'm just doing what I love, you know what I mean? Just doing
203
00:12:42,730 --> 00:12:46,410
what I love. So then you get to Atlanta and like, what
204
00:12:46,410 --> 00:12:50,130
would you say the like was there? You, you and your brother started
205
00:12:50,130 --> 00:12:53,970
something early on Right. Together and then. Yeah, correct. Yeah. And you
206
00:12:53,970 --> 00:12:57,810
had some success with that. What was like the first.
207
00:12:57,810 --> 00:13:01,370
Yeah. What was like the first like, you know, like kind of
208
00:13:01,450 --> 00:13:05,250
moment or like, was there like a validation that you had, you know, you guys
209
00:13:05,250 --> 00:13:09,010
had together where you're like, wow, this is like we're, you know, aside
210
00:13:09,010 --> 00:13:12,770
from. I mean, that's a big validation. Having like the school be like, yo, come
211
00:13:12,770 --> 00:13:16,610
sing for this is huge. But like, like what would be like kind of like
212
00:13:16,610 --> 00:13:20,290
the next step there? Man, I would never forget
213
00:13:20,290 --> 00:13:23,690
my first. Our first day in school in junior high. We were in
214
00:13:25,210 --> 00:13:28,890
seventh grade. I'll never forget my first day in Atlanta,
215
00:13:29,690 --> 00:13:33,510
first day of school in Atlanta, when me and my
216
00:13:33,510 --> 00:13:36,910
twin brother walking past the cafeteria
217
00:13:37,070 --> 00:13:40,830
during one of the lunch periods and it was a
218
00:13:40,830 --> 00:13:44,590
table full of girls just screaming.
219
00:13:44,590 --> 00:13:46,350
And we were only in seventh grade.
220
00:13:48,350 --> 00:13:51,790
And this is the God honest truth. Like, there's no gas.
221
00:13:51,790 --> 00:13:55,390
Anybody. Is anybody, anybody see this and know this moment?
222
00:13:57,230 --> 00:14:00,510
I've told the same exact story my whole life. And
223
00:14:00,940 --> 00:14:04,380
shoot the girls and the people who were even a part of that
224
00:14:04,380 --> 00:14:08,140
moment will freaking vouch and validate and say
225
00:14:08,140 --> 00:14:11,820
they gang. And it was just like that was just, you know, for so
226
00:14:11,820 --> 00:14:15,660
just just that, you know, I mean, but as far as like, you know, musically,
227
00:14:17,260 --> 00:14:20,900
man, we just like just. That kind of just,
228
00:14:20,900 --> 00:14:24,460
just, just pulled that. I just wanted. I made. That I made that comment
229
00:14:24,620 --> 00:14:28,230
to basically say no matter what, what we, what we
230
00:14:28,230 --> 00:14:32,070
did is. And, and we've been, you know, releasing music. You
231
00:14:32,070 --> 00:14:35,070
know what I mean? So it was releasing music. We started releasing music at like
232
00:14:35,070 --> 00:14:38,630
14, 15 with a, with a, a no
233
00:14:38,630 --> 00:14:42,309
lie remix for two two chains
234
00:14:42,309 --> 00:14:46,110
and Drake. I mean and everybody started singing
235
00:14:46,110 --> 00:14:48,950
that. And then we just started doing our own music and
236
00:14:49,830 --> 00:14:53,680
shoe. That's when she was, you
237
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,320
know, coming out with different records and shoot. Other schools were
238
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,120
in like, like, you know, basically inquiring us to come
239
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,800
perform at they pep rallies, you know what I mean? During high school.
240
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,080
Because we were so. We were such a, like a, like a, like a thing
241
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,600
on social media by then, you know, I mean, everybody was just like
242
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,440
so, you know, infatuated and in tune with the twins, you know what I mean?
243
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,600
And yeah, then we popped out with the record. You know, we get turnt up.
244
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,450
You know, that was coming out of high school and that just took over
245
00:15:23,450 --> 00:15:27,290
the entire, you know, planet for real. As far as
246
00:15:27,290 --> 00:15:30,250
just everybody posted it, man. From
247
00:15:31,370 --> 00:15:34,730
man, the. The. The. The. The name's gone forever, man.
248
00:15:34,810 --> 00:15:38,610
Usher performing on his BET Awards, you
249
00:15:38,610 --> 00:15:41,930
know, Rihanna posting in Shoot Chance the
250
00:15:41,930 --> 00:15:45,610
Rapper. I think we had a, A Bieber app
251
00:15:45,610 --> 00:15:49,290
that posted a, A meme with the record on it. So the record was just
252
00:15:49,850 --> 00:15:53,370
moving in so many different directions and just climbing at such a
253
00:15:53,450 --> 00:15:57,170
steadily rate, you know, True, man. That, that was, that was a. That
254
00:15:57,170 --> 00:16:00,970
was a very, you know, pivotal moment in our career that,
255
00:16:00,970 --> 00:16:04,170
that really solidified and stamped, you know, twin actor in the game.
256
00:16:05,289 --> 00:16:08,650
Wow. I can't even imagine that, man. I mean, to, to see that
257
00:16:08,970 --> 00:16:11,330
you said you're out of high school, like kind of right out of high school.
258
00:16:11,330 --> 00:16:15,010
And that happened right out of high school. Oh my gosh.
259
00:16:15,010 --> 00:16:18,660
Like, to see that happen at that age, being like, okay, damn,
260
00:16:18,660 --> 00:16:21,940
like, and then our like record labels calling you guys and like
261
00:16:21,940 --> 00:16:25,740
managers. I mean, it must have been. And to be that young, that must
262
00:16:25,740 --> 00:16:28,940
have been wild to have that, you know, attention on you.
263
00:16:29,260 --> 00:16:32,980
Seriously. Seriously. And, you
264
00:16:32,980 --> 00:16:36,460
know, basically that was because. Because we,
265
00:16:36,620 --> 00:16:40,340
we really. And it was crazy because, you know, we still start, you know, star
266
00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:43,900
students, you know what I mean? Star athletes, you know, star in varsity since,
267
00:16:44,650 --> 00:16:46,970
you know, since sophomore year in high school basketball,
268
00:16:48,170 --> 00:16:51,970
graduated with 3.8 GPA. You know, I mean, like, still
269
00:16:51,970 --> 00:16:55,490
make sure we handed our business, stood on, you know, stood on, you know, stood
270
00:16:55,490 --> 00:16:59,090
on the business, stood on the principles and make sure we was knocking out all
271
00:16:59,090 --> 00:17:02,930
our targets while we still had, you know, kind of like a Superman
272
00:17:02,930 --> 00:17:06,730
uniform to wear outside of the Clark Kent uniform. So it's all
273
00:17:06,730 --> 00:17:10,250
tied in, especially with us being, you know, star athletes. It was like, man,
274
00:17:10,330 --> 00:17:13,679
after the games, you know, we was even taking pictures with the other
275
00:17:13,679 --> 00:17:17,519
cheerleaders and things of that nature. So, you know, it's just been. It's
276
00:17:17,519 --> 00:17:21,199
been a ball my whole life. I can't even, like, I really
277
00:17:21,199 --> 00:17:24,799
can't even. I don't even. I don't even see time no more at this point
278
00:17:24,799 --> 00:17:28,559
because, like, since the dawn of time, it's been like,
279
00:17:29,679 --> 00:17:33,519
oh, it's just. It's just been like a, like a, like a fiesta,
280
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:33,999
you know,
281
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:41,790
it's been a real players, but you know what I'm saying, like, so I enjoy,
282
00:17:41,790 --> 00:17:45,550
man. And yeah, right now, you know, hard. So.
283
00:17:46,910 --> 00:17:50,750
Yeah, so. So, so with the new records, I mean, you had, you had
284
00:17:50,750 --> 00:17:54,470
the, you know, the thing with your brother that you guys did together, and then
285
00:17:54,470 --> 00:17:58,230
now what you, you kind of like done two. Like you're doing a solo thing
286
00:17:58,230 --> 00:18:01,710
now, right? With twin hacks? Yeah, for sure. My. Yeah. Growing up.
287
00:18:01,870 --> 00:18:05,670
And then with. With that whole, you know, we get turned up
288
00:18:05,670 --> 00:18:09,470
situation, like, you know, we kind of, you know, had some, you
289
00:18:09,470 --> 00:18:12,590
Know, some. Some bad people come in a part of our business, you know what
290
00:18:12,590 --> 00:18:16,270
I mean? And really do a number on our, you know, on our. On
291
00:18:16,270 --> 00:18:19,070
our. On our situation. On our. On our.
292
00:18:20,030 --> 00:18:23,589
Just on our whole, you know, career at the time, you know what I mean?
293
00:18:23,589 --> 00:18:26,870
And kind of really hard, right? You don't know who to trust, especially when you're
294
00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:30,710
young like that and everything. You just want it, right?
295
00:18:30,710 --> 00:18:33,630
You just want it so bad to. To have it work and.
296
00:18:34,270 --> 00:18:37,670
And happen that it's like, yeah, right.
297
00:18:37,910 --> 00:18:40,870
I think that'd be so hard, you. Know, but,
298
00:18:41,990 --> 00:18:45,590
you know, all the real ones in the game, and they're proven
299
00:18:45,590 --> 00:18:49,190
with, you know, with great, you know, tribulation, you know, I mean, they're proven with
300
00:18:49,190 --> 00:18:52,550
great, you know, adversity, you know, great hardships. And,
301
00:18:53,110 --> 00:18:56,790
you know, we face them, you know, with our head up, head high, and,
302
00:18:57,030 --> 00:19:00,070
you know, gracefully. We were able to, you know,
303
00:19:01,190 --> 00:19:04,800
transition out of that. That. That.
304
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,600
That. That bad, you know, that bad situation, you
305
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,280
know, I mean, and now, you know, you know, we're doing everything
306
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,800
on the independent scale. And ultimately
307
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,000
it did. It did lead my twin to kind of taking a, you know, back
308
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,840
road on the. On. On the music scene, you know what I mean? It kind
309
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,240
of just like, you know, he's living in Miami right now, and he probably got
310
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,880
his feet up, you know, sitting on the water, you know, he's.
311
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,520
He. He's incredible, man. I love him to death. You know, we speak, you know,
312
00:19:33,030 --> 00:19:36,750
very often. Sure. He's still my best friend. Forever
313
00:19:36,750 --> 00:19:40,590
my best friend. And shoot, you never know, man. Like, you know, it's always a
314
00:19:40,590 --> 00:19:44,230
different trigger, you know, up our sleeve. So just,
315
00:19:44,230 --> 00:19:47,710
Just, Just. Just be ready, you know what I mean? Just be ready. Because he'll
316
00:19:47,710 --> 00:19:51,030
definitely be back on the scene, and a lot of people don't even know that,
317
00:19:51,030 --> 00:19:54,150
you know what I mean? Because of, you know,
318
00:19:54,790 --> 00:19:58,510
how much more, you know, accolades
319
00:19:58,510 --> 00:20:01,600
and trophies I've added to the case, you know, to the, you know, with.
320
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,960
On my solo side, a lot of people don't even know that I'm a real
321
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,080
twin. So to see when I pop back out with my brother, it's gonna be.
322
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,560
Like, oh, yeah, people are gonna go
323
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,360
wild. Yeah.
324
00:20:16,360 --> 00:20:20,200
So was it hard to kind of, like, make the decision to go as, you
325
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,600
know, back then, to just say, you know, I'm gonna keep doing this, but I'm
326
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,280
gonna do it, you know, at. On my own in a way?
327
00:20:27,970 --> 00:20:31,570
Yeah. Yeah, man, that. That was. That was very,
328
00:20:33,090 --> 00:20:35,890
very difficult. Probably the most difficult, you know,
329
00:20:37,570 --> 00:20:41,410
part of my life, you know, I mean, it probably was like, that's. That's like
330
00:20:41,410 --> 00:20:44,610
my. I was born with this. I was born with this person, you know, I
331
00:20:44,610 --> 00:20:47,810
mean, six minutes apart. You feel what I'm saying? So, yeah, it's been
332
00:20:48,290 --> 00:20:51,410
every second, every minute, every hour of the day,
333
00:20:51,890 --> 00:20:55,610
all the way up until, you know, you know, our early. You
334
00:20:55,610 --> 00:20:58,050
know, early adulthood. And.
335
00:20:59,490 --> 00:21:03,090
Yeah, man, so it was. It was a. It was. It was a tough transition.
336
00:21:03,090 --> 00:21:06,290
It was a tough pill to swallow. But, you know, ultimately,
337
00:21:07,330 --> 00:21:11,010
man, I know I still, you know, have a, you know,
338
00:21:11,010 --> 00:21:14,130
a certain responsibility. You know, I know I still had a certain
339
00:21:14,610 --> 00:21:18,050
love and passion for, you know, what. You know, what we do with the music.
340
00:21:18,450 --> 00:21:22,040
And, you know, every time I get on the mic, you
341
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,600
know, should I hear the quality and the sound and just the
342
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,440
angelic tunes that
343
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,640
come back on a feedback, and it just gives me another day.
344
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,680
See, like, this is good. We going again.
345
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,180
You hear me? Straight up. So
346
00:21:45,180 --> 00:21:48,700
I love it. Yeah, man. You know, it's tough feel, but still a man still,
347
00:21:48,940 --> 00:21:52,660
you know, still. Still strong, you know, that was. That's always been. That's
348
00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:55,660
just in our blood, you know. I mean, be strong, you know, be.
349
00:21:56,780 --> 00:22:00,580
Be continuous. Be resilient, you know, and, you know, finish the
350
00:22:00,580 --> 00:22:04,340
job. What made you decide, like, with the. With. I like it.
351
00:22:04,340 --> 00:22:08,060
You. You know, we're talking earlier. It's definitely has that nostalgia of the
352
00:22:08,060 --> 00:22:11,020
90s R B and all of that. Like, was there something
353
00:22:12,130 --> 00:22:14,810
that. Was it just that you grew up on that and you kind of wanted
354
00:22:14,810 --> 00:22:18,570
to revive that, you know, sound or like, what. What kind of made
355
00:22:18,570 --> 00:22:22,130
you look at this new song with it, with. With
356
00:22:22,130 --> 00:22:25,490
that, like, lens. Oh,
357
00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:28,370
exactly. That, you know, I grew up. I took, like I told you, man, since.
358
00:22:29,490 --> 00:22:33,010
Since growing up in. In the back of, you know, you know, our
359
00:22:33,010 --> 00:22:36,610
parents backseat, you know, it's been singing from the
360
00:22:36,610 --> 00:22:39,890
bottom of our heart, you know what I mean? The depths of our souls to,
361
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,800
you know, basically from that 90s R B vibe, you know, I mean, that early
362
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,600
2000s, you know,
363
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,000
and, you know, growing up, you know, then, you know, kind
364
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,440
of going into, like, you know, my own adulthood and just starting to being around,
365
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,200
you know, like, being in certain environments, you know, that
366
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,080
we was kind of, you know, raised in, you know, of course it's gonna. You're
367
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,920
gonna, you know, get pulled into certain social influences as to what's
368
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,920
hot and what's not, you know, I mean, what styles to go with how to.
369
00:23:10,210 --> 00:23:13,850
How to sing, how to rap, all this thing because of the, you know, the
370
00:23:13,850 --> 00:23:17,250
trajectory and the direction that you know, the game is going into.
371
00:23:17,810 --> 00:23:21,570
But, man, ultimately I just kind of just, you know, had a. You
372
00:23:21,570 --> 00:23:25,050
know, just had an epiphany, just had a moment and kind of went back down
373
00:23:25,050 --> 00:23:28,730
my own, like. Like my own
374
00:23:28,730 --> 00:23:32,290
time machine. And it was like, for a period of time, I was just only
375
00:23:32,290 --> 00:23:36,050
back listening to, you know, the 90s, in the early 2000,
376
00:23:36,130 --> 00:23:39,720
even down to 60s, 78s music, you know what I mean? Because
377
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,840
a lot of. A lot of the new music is, you know, I respect it
378
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,560
all. I respect all of it, but it's just. It's just.
379
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,480
It just. It just isn't in the. In the. It's just not. It's
380
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,080
not in the vibration that I'm
381
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,600
moving in. You know what I mean? As far as, you know, I just don't.
382
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,880
I'm not too high on, you know, all the. The
383
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,600
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, like, just,
384
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,120
you know, hooped in Holland type of. Type of sounds right now. You know what
385
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:13,560
I mean? I'm really on some just. I'm on some cool, you know, in my
386
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,200
real life, you know, my, like, so my music gotta. It's very important
387
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,400
for your. Your music and your catalog and your,
388
00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:24,080
you know, give me your interviews to reflect.
389
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,320
Yo, yo, yo. Like, who you really are, you know, I mean, and where
390
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,860
you really are in life. Because if you're trying to pose into something
391
00:24:31,860 --> 00:24:35,180
else, like, say I'm, you know, I'm living on, you know, on a golf course,
392
00:24:35,180 --> 00:24:38,380
you know, I mean, with a, you know, pool and, you know, I mean, having
393
00:24:38,380 --> 00:24:42,180
different. It'd be, you know, cool vibes and things over here. And I'm up
394
00:24:42,180 --> 00:24:45,860
here talking about, let's go kill it. And it's
395
00:24:45,860 --> 00:24:48,140
like, bro, that's not even my vibe right now.
396
00:24:49,660 --> 00:24:51,500
I know I want to get my clubs.
397
00:24:53,340 --> 00:24:56,380
Like, I real deal be having, you know, I keep, you know, keep a nice
398
00:24:56,380 --> 00:24:59,980
vibe and rotation. You know what I'm saying? Some, you know,
399
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:03,500
birds chirping, you know, dogs barking, trees blowing like,
400
00:25:04,140 --> 00:25:07,820
man, they're putting some R B going on the jet
401
00:25:07,820 --> 00:25:08,300
right now.
402
00:25:11,740 --> 00:25:15,300
So that's what it is, man. That's what, you know, kind of ultimately led me
403
00:25:15,300 --> 00:25:19,100
to go. But, you know, go. Go into this. Into this. This
404
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:22,780
chapter of my. Of my career and has received, you
405
00:25:22,780 --> 00:25:26,160
know, great feedback, you know what I mean? And,
406
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,560
you know, I feel good about it, you know, so that's really like the most
407
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,920
important thing about it, you know, I feel good about it. And to see other,
408
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,560
you know, big heads to, you know, giants and,
409
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,920
you know, mid level and, you Know, ground level
410
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,560
consumers receive it in
411
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,760
a fashion, in a, you know, the love
412
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,590
and appreciation for it. You know, that's, that's,
413
00:25:52,590 --> 00:25:56,390
that's automatically me, man. So it's this, this is what
414
00:25:56,390 --> 00:25:59,950
we are. That's what we are. Yeah. People love it, man. I mean, it's getting
415
00:25:59,950 --> 00:26:03,550
added all the time to different. I, I started off in radio, so I still
416
00:26:03,550 --> 00:26:07,390
will see those charts and you know, a bunch of stations are adding
417
00:26:07,390 --> 00:26:11,030
it. I mean, that's so huge, man. That's great. That's
418
00:26:11,030 --> 00:26:14,870
freaking great. It's awesome. For real, man. Like, right now, I believe we top 30
419
00:26:14,870 --> 00:26:18,520
on, on the I Heart charts. Yeah.
420
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:19,960
That's so massive.
421
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,400
Yeah, man. Every day, man, it's just another pillar unfolding, you
422
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,720
know. Just another pillar unfolding. I'm just, you know, really just, you know, just.
423
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,120
I'm just sitting back, you know, drinking my water, my coffee, and I just really
424
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:37,360
just appreciate the fruits of my labor and watching my garden come to harvest, you
425
00:26:37,360 --> 00:26:41,080
know? Love that, dude. You're so positive, dude. And,
426
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,200
and, and I mean, we could cut this because I, I don't. I'm not the,
427
00:26:44,460 --> 00:26:48,100
the, the podcast or the interview, like, gotcha guy. I think that
428
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:51,860
shit's stupid. But I mean, obviously there's a lot of stuff going
429
00:26:51,860 --> 00:26:55,500
in the tabloids about. With you because of all the, that you've been through
430
00:26:55,500 --> 00:26:59,260
and to talk to you and have you be such a. You're so positive
431
00:26:59,260 --> 00:27:02,940
and just not, you know, you haven't acknowledged it at all. It's like,
432
00:27:03,420 --> 00:27:06,540
I, I don't know. It's. I, I have so much respect for you, man. Like,
433
00:27:06,540 --> 00:27:10,300
that's so cool. I appreciate that, brother. Thank you. And yeah,
434
00:27:10,300 --> 00:27:13,900
we're, we're not going to go to it,
435
00:27:13,900 --> 00:27:17,100
but as far as response to,
436
00:27:19,580 --> 00:27:23,100
to how you, you know, basically like
437
00:27:23,260 --> 00:27:27,100
your perspective on, you know, how I conduct to handle myself, you
438
00:27:27,100 --> 00:27:30,860
know, through all the, the, the frenzy and the. In the,
439
00:27:30,860 --> 00:27:34,460
in the, in the bombshells. Experience,
440
00:27:34,540 --> 00:27:38,060
man. Experience. Experience. Raised warriors, you know what I mean? Just
441
00:27:38,420 --> 00:27:42,180
luckily this ain't my first rodeo with being like, you know, the,
442
00:27:42,180 --> 00:27:45,740
the face of the Internet or the big. One of the biggest
443
00:27:45,740 --> 00:27:49,340
stories, you know, pitched or, you know, just having, you know,
444
00:27:49,340 --> 00:27:53,100
me, you know, responses and interactions, you
445
00:27:53,100 --> 00:27:56,860
know, at one time and things of that nature, man. I kind of just like
446
00:27:56,860 --> 00:28:00,660
I told you, man, you know, I, I walk, I walk
447
00:28:00,660 --> 00:28:04,140
the park every day, man. I walk my golf course every day, you know, you
448
00:28:04,140 --> 00:28:07,800
know, I drink my water, man. I try to mind my business, you know what
449
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,000
I mean? And, and me and My team, man, we, you know, we've been working,
450
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,120
you know, so hard and so diligent on so many other. So much other
451
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:18,840
material and projects that on my
452
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,280
behalf, that would be selfish if I really just
453
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,640
try to allow that to cover all the things we've been working for, you
454
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,440
know, over the years, over the months, over the. Just. Just the sleepless nights,
455
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,100
you know what I mean? The. The. The. Just getting
456
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:37,540
through the, you know, so many other storms and. And. And
457
00:28:37,620 --> 00:28:41,460
roadblocks. Like, you know, it's. It's so much. It's so much life to,
458
00:28:41,460 --> 00:28:45,300
you know, really, like, grasp on and. And. And remain on a
459
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:48,420
good leg with, you know, I mean, regardless of, you know,
460
00:28:48,900 --> 00:28:52,540
certain bombshells and surprises and things that, you know, was supposed to
461
00:28:52,540 --> 00:28:55,940
be, you know, confident matters or confidential matters and private
462
00:28:56,020 --> 00:28:59,800
matters, but, you know, shooting, you know, I don't question. I don't
463
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,600
question the universe. You know, I don't question, you know, God and his, you
464
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,400
know, his. His doings. So, man, I just. I just take it all in. And.
465
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,600
And ultimately, I know that that's. That
466
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,160
situation, you know, it didn't make
467
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:19,000
nor can will it break, you know, twin Hector. So
468
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,240
that's like. That's a here nor there. Like, that's. That's the universe over there
469
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,810
working. I'm still doing what I got to do as, As a young man, as
470
00:29:26,810 --> 00:29:30,610
an artist, as a family man, as a businessman,
471
00:29:31,090 --> 00:29:34,850
to make sure that, you know, this boat, you know, stays. You know, stays in
472
00:29:34,850 --> 00:29:38,610
rotation and in these engines and. And all our fluids and
473
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:42,210
our. Everything is. Is up to. Level,
474
00:29:42,210 --> 00:29:45,370
up to date, and everybody is calm. Because at the end of the day, like,
475
00:29:45,370 --> 00:29:48,050
I was teaching my nephew. I'm teaching my nephew how to drive right now. We
476
00:29:48,050 --> 00:29:50,990
go. I'm gonna take him go driving when I get up, phone with you. Oh,
477
00:29:50,990 --> 00:29:54,430
that's amazing. Yeah, for sure. I tell him. He. Like,
478
00:29:54,750 --> 00:29:58,310
I told him the main thing as a pilot or as a driver is to
479
00:29:58,310 --> 00:30:02,030
make sure your passengers feel comfortable. So
480
00:30:02,350 --> 00:30:05,510
there's a lot of people around me that depend on my spirit, that depend on
481
00:30:05,510 --> 00:30:08,910
my vibe, that depend on my, you know, my conversation, my,
482
00:30:09,150 --> 00:30:12,510
you know, just my leadership in general. So I got to make sure that I,
483
00:30:12,990 --> 00:30:16,670
you know, that I provide a good example, you know, not only them, but
484
00:30:16,670 --> 00:30:20,350
myself. Well, I. Dude, I have so much respect for you
485
00:30:20,350 --> 00:30:23,990
and. And what you're doing and just having that,
486
00:30:23,990 --> 00:30:27,550
you know, that, like I said, just having this
487
00:30:27,550 --> 00:30:30,870
conversation with you and how positive you are and everything, it's like,
488
00:30:31,190 --> 00:30:34,870
man, like, that's. That's so awesome just to see,
489
00:30:34,950 --> 00:30:38,030
you know, what you have to kind of deal with on the outside and. Thank
490
00:30:38,030 --> 00:30:41,830
you. Yeah. You know, that a lot of people, like, you know, they'll try
491
00:30:41,830 --> 00:30:45,510
to tell me like, what to do or what to say or how to say
492
00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:48,750
this or how to respond or how to. And I really like,
493
00:30:49,550 --> 00:30:51,990
you know, at first because when they're not, you know, when things, you know, come
494
00:30:51,990 --> 00:30:55,830
at you so fast, it's like, you know, like your brain isn't like in a
495
00:30:55,830 --> 00:30:58,950
coma toast. Like it's in a shock. It's like, oh, wait a minute. So it's
496
00:30:58,950 --> 00:31:01,870
like, you know, you kind of feed into it a little bit. But then, you
497
00:31:01,870 --> 00:31:05,550
know, once you, you know, like, you know, I listen to frequencies
498
00:31:05,550 --> 00:31:08,110
you know, daily, you know, I mean, so once I just start getting back into
499
00:31:08,110 --> 00:31:11,680
my frequencies and kind of my. And just feeling my, you know, my
500
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,400
brain and body, you know, you know, kind of, you know,
501
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,840
reprogram you know, reprogram itself. You know, I was just like,
502
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,360
ultimately just be you twin. And I mean, like,
503
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,240
it's not even like that's the only way you're going to perform
504
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,000
and, and, and, and. And acknowledge and.
505
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,720
And be. Be personable with anybody when you're like,
506
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:37,520
just true like 1000 yourself. Because I don't want to have to remember
507
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,360
what this person tried to say say this person tried to
508
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,960
give me advice on it. I just be you like, bro, you, you.

Dude. Dude, that's so cool, man. I appreciate it already.
552
00:34:24,740 --> 00:34:27,540
I got one more question for you, twin, before I let you go, and you
553
00:34:27,540 --> 00:34:30,780
can. You know, I don't want to take you from teaching your nephew how to
554
00:34:30,780 --> 00:34:34,020
drive here. I want to know if you have any advice for aspiring artists.
555
00:34:34,820 --> 00:34:37,700
It's so much advice and, you know, I mean, oh, wow.
556
00:34:38,660 --> 00:34:41,300
So I want to. I want to give them something good, you know? I mean,
557
00:34:42,420 --> 00:34:44,900
it's a few of them. I'm gonna give a few, you know,
558
00:34:46,700 --> 00:34:50,140
the answer always lies within, you know, Champions persevere.
559
00:34:50,860 --> 00:34:52,540
You miss every shot you don't take,
560
00:34:55,740 --> 00:34:58,540
you know, be true to yourself. That, I mean, like,
561
00:35:00,060 --> 00:35:03,860
believe in yourself and I mean, don't be
562
00:35:03,860 --> 00:35:06,860
afraid to deliver. You know what I mean? If. Even if you feel like you
563
00:35:06,860 --> 00:35:10,060
don't have the audience that, you know, that you. That. That you.
564
00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:14,590
That you see that the next person have or what the next person have
565
00:35:14,590 --> 00:35:18,390
isn't, you know, that that isn't what God has,
566
00:35:18,390 --> 00:35:22,030
you know, has positioned for you right now. So, so be, be
567
00:35:22,030 --> 00:35:25,830
joyful and rejoice in what you have on today,
568
00:35:25,990 --> 00:35:29,510
you know, for the universe to bless you for, you know, something.
569
00:35:29,510 --> 00:35:33,030
Something new tomorrow. Because it's gonna be. It's hard for the universe,
570
00:35:33,350 --> 00:35:36,910
for God to communicate with you and to, to get back to you in a
571
00:35:36,910 --> 00:35:37,910
state of.
572
00:35:41,670 --> 00:35:45,190
In a state of. What's the word I'm looking for?
573
00:35:48,070 --> 00:35:51,750
Unappreciated, like being unappreciative of what, of what's in your.
574
00:35:52,230 --> 00:35:55,910
In your. In your life right now. And you're in your. And you're in
575
00:35:55,910 --> 00:35:59,230
your grace and you're in your grips. You know what I mean? But it's always
576
00:35:59,230 --> 00:36:01,990
just about, you know, it's about doing it, doing the back work too, you know,
577
00:36:01,990 --> 00:36:05,770
I mean, doing research, you know, studying, you know, the, the.
578
00:36:05,770 --> 00:36:09,330
The. The true craft and the true routes. You know what I mean?
579
00:36:09,330 --> 00:36:12,850
That, you know, that has positioned certain people because every.
580
00:36:13,330 --> 00:36:16,530
It's a million ways to. To. To get a million.
581
00:36:16,770 --> 00:36:20,610
Whatever million dollars million followers mean impressing me and views.
582
00:36:20,610 --> 00:36:24,210
It's a million ways to get a million everything. So
583
00:36:24,370 --> 00:36:28,090
what might happen for Joe may not been. May not be the way that happened
584
00:36:28,090 --> 00:36:31,910
for. For Tony, you get what I'm saying? Or, or for Rick, you know,
585
00:36:31,910 --> 00:36:35,750
so just, you know, kind of like take
586
00:36:35,750 --> 00:36:39,510
a mixture of. Of everyone's success and hone
587
00:36:39,510 --> 00:36:42,430
it into your own. Your own story
588
00:36:43,790 --> 00:36:47,389
and that, that's. That's kind of like an undeniable like
589
00:36:47,389 --> 00:36:50,670
formula hone in everyone, owning everyone in your field.
590
00:36:50,990 --> 00:36:54,350
If we're speaking on career and business, honing into
591
00:36:55,710 --> 00:36:59,260
whatever business or career field you. In doing the necessary research
592
00:36:59,340 --> 00:37:02,580
and back. Back work and literally
593
00:37:02,580 --> 00:37:06,100
molding everyone's, you know,
594
00:37:06,100 --> 00:37:09,500
success into yours and
595
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:12,540
walking. And walking in that light, you know, I mean, and
596
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:16,820
true, man, the. The. The possibilities are
597
00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:20,540
endless. Possibilities are endless. You know, nothing is promised.
598
00:37:20,700 --> 00:37:23,990
So it's just all about, you know,
599
00:37:25,270 --> 00:37:28,710
just going with, you know, going with the flows, taking the blows and
600
00:37:29,270 --> 00:37:32,830
you know, doing your thing,
601
00:37:32,830 --> 00:37:36,590
man, just doing your thing. Just make sure you always contend with
602
00:37:36,590 --> 00:37:40,430
yourself. Make sure you always. You confident with yourself. You know, I
603
00:37:40,430 --> 00:37:44,070
mean, talk to the mirror, you know, listen to you listen to frequencies,
604
00:37:44,070 --> 00:37:47,870
listen to good vibes, you know, a lot of time, you know, the, the music
605
00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:51,670
that you pollute yourself with can directly affect how
606
00:37:51,670 --> 00:37:54,990
you feel, how you think, what you think of yourself.
607
00:37:56,270 --> 00:37:59,430
Sometimes I only listen to lo fi music, you know what I mean? That's because
608
00:37:59,430 --> 00:38:03,230
there's no. There's no words. It's only like it's like a cool hip hop
609
00:38:03,230 --> 00:38:06,990
jazz. So it allows me to filter, filter my
610
00:38:06,990 --> 00:38:10,630
mind, you know what I'm saying? So that's just another thing, man, that's, that's
611
00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:14,270
also important, man, filtering your mind, you know, I mean, make sure you, make sure
612
00:38:14,270 --> 00:38:17,990
you filter your mind if you feel like you have so much or too
613
00:38:17,990 --> 00:38:21,710
much to think about or to try to put together or try to
614
00:38:21,710 --> 00:38:25,470
organize, eliminate the words in the music, you know, I mean,
615
00:38:25,470 --> 00:38:28,870
either put some, put some frequencies on, you know, I mean, I, I personally
616
00:38:30,790 --> 00:38:34,230
recommend wisdom frequencies, you know what I mean?
617
00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:38,630
And you know, you can honestly literally feel
618
00:38:39,030 --> 00:38:42,550
your body filtering and letting out the things that,
619
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,640
and the thoughts that aren't needed. Or at least
620
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,800
even if it's right now, it really helps you hone into,
621
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,120
okay, bet I need to do this, like this. Instead of just like being like,
622
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:55,560
okay, I need to do this, I need to do this, I need to do
623
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,760
this, I need to do this, I need to do this. It's like, all right,
624
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,760
I need to do this. And oh snap. I kind of just gotta.
625
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,240
No, I got an idea how to do it. Okay, let me do it right
626
00:39:04,240 --> 00:39:08,040
now. And you just moving now
627
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,720
because your, your body is filtered and it's organizing
628
00:39:11,720 --> 00:39:15,440
itself. When you're cluttering yourself with so many different opinions, so
629
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,760
many different people's thoughts and, and, and, and
630
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,880
fallacies and all that, that's just like with anything,
631
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,640
man. If you're making a pot of freaking. If you're making a pot
632
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,080
of spaghetti, you know, you only use the,
633
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,400
the ingredients for spaghetti, but you start throwing in everybody else's ingredients
634
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,350
and everybody else's opinions and everybody else's recipes.
635
00:39:39,390 --> 00:39:41,630
You just made you a big ass pot of.
636
00:39:44,990 --> 00:39:48,830
So make sure you filtering out your recipes and your ingredients, I mean,
637
00:39:48,830 --> 00:39:52,670
and shoot attacking it, man.
638
00:39:52,670 --> 00:39:55,710
Well, you know, one day at a time, one step at a time going.
639
00:39:56,670 --> 00:40:00,270
Keep God first. You know, I know a lot of people say that, cue God
640
00:40:00,270 --> 00:40:03,470
first, but you know, that's a, that has to be a true lifestyle, you know,
641
00:40:03,470 --> 00:40:06,230
I mean, it can't be like a lottery ticket. I mean, you have to truly
642
00:40:06,230 --> 00:40:09,830
hone into, you know, his, his
643
00:40:09,830 --> 00:40:13,150
words, his loss is, you know, it's his
644
00:40:13,150 --> 00:40:16,990
practices, his patience, you know what I mean? And understand that, you know,
645
00:40:16,990 --> 00:40:20,710
wisdom is more present than rubies. So once you start understanding things of that
646
00:40:20,710 --> 00:40:24,430
nature and once you start kind of getting into the true love, wealth and
647
00:40:24,430 --> 00:40:28,270
riches which is within, which is, you know, then, you know,
648
00:40:28,270 --> 00:40:32,030
because you, you can't be rich if you ain't already rich. Otherwise you know what
649
00:40:32,030 --> 00:40:35,870
I mean? Like, you go give a, you know, go give somebody random on the
650
00:40:35,870 --> 00:40:38,270
street a million dollars, you know what I mean?
651
00:40:40,910 --> 00:40:44,510
More than likely, you know, that mean obviously be gone in, you know,
652
00:40:45,390 --> 00:40:48,910
super short amount of time, then you're giving it to somebody who,
653
00:40:50,270 --> 00:40:53,310
who's put in the, the, the, the necessary
654
00:40:53,950 --> 00:40:57,800
research, studying and program themselves for, for, for the
655
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,400
correct information and wisdom to, you know, to,
656
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,600
to sustain this million for a lifetime and be generational. So this
657
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,080
is all about just preparing yourself, man, for,
658
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,199
for something that you, you can't prepare for. You gotta
659
00:41:13,199 --> 00:41:16,440
prepare yourself for the unprepared. You gotta fathom them
660
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,160
unfathomable. It's like nothing.
661
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,800
You can't. There, there's no, there's no constant day.
662
00:41:24,300 --> 00:41:27,260
There's no, there's no, there's no
663
00:41:30,140 --> 00:41:33,740
exact or absolute day moment,
664
00:41:34,540 --> 00:41:38,260
situation, nothing. Like, you didn't, you didn't expect for this, the
665
00:41:38,260 --> 00:41:41,420
conversation to be like this. I didn't expect these questions to be as such. So
666
00:41:41,420 --> 00:41:44,740
it's like you can never, you can only prepare for the
667
00:41:44,740 --> 00:41:47,740
unprepared. The only thing you can prepare to be is
668
00:41:48,540 --> 00:41:52,290
your utmost true to yourself, man. And if you don't feel
669
00:41:52,290 --> 00:41:55,610
like you cool enough, you gotta find something in you that
670
00:41:56,170 --> 00:41:59,890
makes you feel cool so you can move in that spirit. Because don't let
671
00:41:59,890 --> 00:42:03,050
nobody try to knock you off your spirit saying, oh, that's not cool. Or that's
672
00:42:03,050 --> 00:42:06,570
not. Well, it might not be cool to you, but it's cool to me. So
673
00:42:06,890 --> 00:42:10,530
you, you know, I mean, with love, we
674
00:42:10,530 --> 00:42:12,810
start again right now. How you doing again?
675
00:42:14,410 --> 00:42:17,320
Don't tell me I ain't cool because you ain't cool if I ain't cool. And
676
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:21,000
I think you're pretty cool. So if you cool, I'm cool. Chill
677
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:21,280
out.
678
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,360
Bringing it backwards,
679
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,720
bringing it backwards, bringing it backwards,
680
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,480
bringing it backwards, bringing it backwards,
681
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,320
bring it backwards.
