00:56on their song, cause they know they're about to get the sauce, they know, like, it's about

01:01to be a hit, it's gonna be on the album, how does that feel to be that guy that everybody

01:06just relies on to be the hook man?

01:09Or just a good feature all together.

01:11Books, verses, beats, whatever the fuck you're gonna do, you know, it feels good just for

01:17people to listen to my music and to be able to feed my family off of making music, so

01:23I appreciate, I appreciate you and everybody out there listening, for sure.

01:27At one point, does, when Ty's gotta focus on his album, when that album's gotta drop, you

01:37Juicy and Project Pat on the record, man, what is it about those Memphis records, like, those

01:43classic tear the club up type joints that really, you know, inspired that song?

01:48When I was like 16 and I had my first car and I got beat, you know, the 212s in the back

01:53and shit with the Pioneer and all that, the radio and all that, like, that was all I was

01:57playing at the time, 3-6 Mafia, you feel me, tear the club up, all that shit, you know what

02:03I'm saying, cash money, so it was like an honor to be able to, first of all, be from

02:08Taylor Gang and Juicy J be from the gang, and then to come to this point in my career and

02:15get Juicy J and Project Pat on a song together, it was legendary for me, for sure.

02:25on right now, with Hottest in the City being a single, and I know you got Midnight Hour,

02:29is that going to be on the joint too?
