00:00This Gunna, and this is My Chart History.
00:16The Fuck You Mean is a fun song, it's energy, good vibes, Miami.
00:22So how we came up with the song, we was at Airbnb in the studio room.
00:28Me, Nietzsche, P. Liddy, Flo.
00:32I know for sure that I heard Don't Rock.
00:35It was also just a bunch of beautiful women in the room, just vibes, and the beat playing.
00:41And I remember P. Liddy like, yeah, she really just saying, yeah.
00:47She from Morocco, but she done lived in Paris.
00:49So she got a French accent that just was different, right?
00:54And then I'm like, man, just, you need to just record, say this, just record it one time.
01:00I duplicated it all the way through the song.
01:03I might have said, Fuck You Mean, and Nietzsche's like, man, you need to say, Fuck You Mean with like,
01:07everybody in the room.
01:09The whole room, like, Fuck You Mean.
01:10That's why it sounds like a lot of people when you hear, Fuck You Mean, because there was a lot
01:15of people in the room.
01:18How I make a song, I freestyle and just kind of just like dissect it.
01:23But it started off with my feelings of like, just how I'm feeling today.
01:41It just happened, like, you know, just kind of put me and Don Toliver together.
01:47And we sound great together.
01:48At the time we did Jimmy Fallon, we couldn't really go to Jimmy Fallon because of the COVID and everything
01:54going on.
01:55So we had to do it off site.
01:56And me, Don Toliver now, we all came and just gave it more life, more energy to just see the
02:02connection of all of us.
02:03Just, you know, being collaborative.
02:05It's a good song to this day.
02:18For that song, it was like a no brainer.
02:22Like, I didn't even have to like, think of how the approach was going to really be.
02:27You know what I'm saying?
02:27I just came, me.
02:28That was a time when we, me and Baby, we was doing Drip Harder.
02:32We kind of just bouncing off each other.
02:34We doing songs.
02:36We just, we just trying to finish this album.
02:39Turbo made this beat.
02:40Baby started on this motherfucker.
02:42And then like, once I heard it, it was just like, let me do my part.
02:47I feel like just us alone, just like coming up, two artists from Atlanta, like young, youth, and we giving
02:53it up hard.
02:55It just took the song to the moon.
02:57It was already written.
02:58Just the whole song of just us together.
03:00It was a good combination.
03:02Good collaboration.
03:03Just too hard.
03:04Charge to the card.
03:06Resonance to the ground.
03:06I can balance better names.
03:11Hopper P.
03:12I'm paranoid.
03:13I keep sleeping.
03:14I keep sleeping.
03:15I keep deep.
03:15I rest on me.
03:16Why they watching me?
03:17I'm pushing P.
03:18Well, the Pusher P I know of that I was, that I was, you know what I'm saying, still pushing.
03:22It just came from like Atlanta culture of us being some players and just pushing just like positivity, just good
03:29vibes.
03:30It's all like, they could form one of these P.
03:33What's P?
03:34And like, at the time you can remember like, I kind of like gave you a brief of, you know,
03:39bossing up your lady's P.
03:41Looking out for your people's P.
03:43I was just, you know, just trying to let people know what all could be, you know, pushing P.
03:48Me, Slime, Pluto, it was already like culture in Atlanta of us pushing P.
03:53So when we did a song, it was just like a no brainer to like the world, I feel, because
03:59it was like, we've been kind of like pushing this like culturally.
04:02Like you said, it was already a slang or whatever that we was already doing anyway.
04:08But when it came to a song, it was like, oh yeah, we pushing P.
04:11Now you got Nike pushing P.
04:13You got IHOP pushing P.
04:14You got Kim K pushing P.
04:16She Kim P at the time.
04:17Me and Pluto started the song in Miami.
04:20Slime one day, yeah, I brought the song back to Atlanta.
04:25And I just knew he needed to be on the last verse.
04:27That's really how we did the song.
04:42I did that song maybe like three in the morning, four in the morning.
04:46It's late.
04:47Maybe later than that.
04:48I know I just remember being late and tired.
04:51To pull my own stunts.
04:53We had firemen on hand and stuff because it's serious, you know, and I had to have layers.
04:57Layers of clothing on.
04:59So it was all like layers to doing it.
05:02We had to get a lot of permits, stuff like that.
05:04But we got it done.
05:06If it could be done, try it.
05:07Why not?
05:08Especially if it makes sense.
05:09It's for a greater cause.
05:10It's for the music video.
05:26I never have like a particular approach to like what song I'm gonna make for a woman today.
05:32That day I didn't, I didn't think I was going to the studio to make a Hoogie and Fuck song
05:38tonight.
05:38The vibe that night, it was, it was intentional when I, when I started reading the room.
05:45And I'm like, okay, we, we got a couple of vibes in here, you know, regular casual night.
05:50And then I got a, it's, it's a girl that I just, I just remember her leaving the room and
05:56she was just gone for a minute.
05:59And then I put two and two together.
06:02And then I just started writing the song.
06:04I'm like, who getting fucked tonight?
06:06Oh, she getting fucked tonight.
06:08I just was in a strip club when they were playing this song.
06:11In Atlanta.
06:12Magic.
06:13Magic.
06:14Yeah.
06:30It's great working with Chris first of all, creative genius.
06:35But with this particular song, he had made the song and he reached out, him, Hoody, they called me like,
06:42yo, I got one for you.
06:43I need you to get this done though ASAP.
06:46And at the time I remember like, my voice was like gone.
06:50But like, you can't, you ain't finna tell CB no right here in this gap.
06:54Like, but you gotta, you better record, knock it out.
06:56I was at my condo or probably my town house in Atlanta at the time.
07:01And I recorded the verse, sent it back to him.
07:05He, I'm like, bro, my voice gone.
07:06If you just need me to touch it up, let me know.
07:08He's like, nah, bro, you good.
07:09You sound A1 on here.
07:11He's like, and I'm about to touch it up.
07:12I'm going to have my engineer, he touch you up, you going to be good.
07:15Which he did.
07:16And it was good.
07:17Shit, he wanted to shoot the video like quick.
07:20He didn't want to waste no time.
07:21And that shit was legendary.
07:23We both really like some ladies, man.
07:25So it was just creative for us to even get on a song together.
07:28Like, you know, he did the remix of Who Can Fuck Tonight.
07:31It was just like, this was a, it was made for him.
07:34It's like one of them ones.
07:35You know you're going to get on here and talk your shit.
07:37So it's legendary when we work every time.
07:40It's stylish women around me right now as we speak.
07:44Like, I feel like that's the aesthetic of us, you know what I'm saying?
07:47And it's, and we're going to feed off of that.
07:50Whether it's high fashion or it's vintage fashion.
07:54It's just all fashion.
07:55Because, you know, it don't got to be like, expensive to be fly.
08:14I think we kind of just fed off like the energy and the lyrics of the song.
08:19Me and Spike, even in the song, it's just like, I'm letting you know.
08:24Like, they set me down when I was out of space.
08:26Like, this is me coming off of 2022.
08:29I was just out of space.
08:30I was just pushing P.
08:31I can go to Jupiter whenever I want.
08:33You know what I mean?
08:34But now I got to go back to the moon.
08:37You know what I'm saying?
08:37And that was the energy for the video.
08:40Just like, me versus me.
08:42Me talking to me.
08:43Like, me getting it off of my chest for me to get back to the moon.
08:47To just let the world know, like, boy, I'm still here.
08:51I'm going all the way up again.
08:53If you had an opportunity like SpaceX to do outer space travel, what would you do?
08:59I probably would.
09:00Yeah, if it made, like, once I know, like, the dynamics of me getting back, I'd go.
09:07They set me down like I went out of space.
09:09Now I got to go back to the moon.
09:20It was a different, like, beat.
09:22Like, it was a Metro production in that.
09:26And I feel like he's a great producer.
09:28And he always could just go, like, to the highest of the high.
09:33It could be with any artist.
09:34It doesn't have to be, like, the highest of the high artists either.
09:38He can, like, mesh those two, like, very, very well.
09:42And I feel like that's kind of like what that was right there when we did that.
09:45Because he already had the beat ready.
09:48All I had to do was just come in there and just do what I do.
09:51He knowin' me as an artist.
09:52He knowin' like, all right, this beat right here is for gonna.
09:56He gonna do exactly what I need him to do so now I can finish it and touch it.
09:59And that's what Metro do that was productive the right way.
10:02It was like a feed out of the video and Metro just took it to the next level.
10:06Like, and his whole thing was from the song.
10:09Like, the Space Cadet song.
10:10He took that and brought Space Cadet to, like, real life.
10:14You know what I'm sayin'?
10:15And I even feel like that's what he did when we did Jimmy Fallon.
10:19He painted the picture the right way and delivered.
10:22I met him through, like, Atlanta, of course.
10:26But, like, I don't, I can't remember the exact date or, like, timing of, like, when or how we really,
10:33like, met.
10:34But we met through, for sure, for sure, through Thug, 100%.
10:38But, like, I didn't just meet them together.
10:41You know what I mean?
10:42I just remember meeting Metro on my own.
10:58At the time me recording this song, it was just, like, a dark space for me.
11:06And also just, like, at a time where, like, there was a lot of noise.
11:10Just a lot, a lot, a lot of noise that I had to, like, silence, right?
11:16In the midst of all of that, I'm just still creating, doing music, you know?
11:20And I'm writing songs, and I told you I write music, like, how I feel.
11:24Going all out about my bread and butter is, like, that's a forever.
11:28Like, I'm gonna do that.
11:30You know what I'm saying?
11:31And I feel like at the time, life and career on the line of, like, me just being, being able
11:36to continue as an artist.
11:38You know what I'm saying?
11:38So it's, like, that's, it's that type of energy.
11:41Like, ain't nah, like, back against the wall.
11:43I recorded that song in that house that I shot the video in.
11:48So it was like, you do a song.
11:51I, my, my peers, my support system, me, I hear this song.
11:54We in this house together.
11:56Let's just shoot it.
11:57Like, we all felt that song in that moment in time of it to be my first release off of
12:03being released.
12:04I still felt dark, no relief.
12:07A song was out, and it was trending.
12:10So I was just like, you know, like, this, I do do music.
12:13I am an artist.
12:14So this is what I gotta continue to do.
12:33Me resonating with athletes, like, do fitness, I go to the gym and work out.
12:37And now, like, I'm so invested into my health.
12:41I do things that athletes have to do to, you know, keep, to stay conditioned or push to the next
12:46level.
12:47That's how I'm already just, like, can relate to an athlete now.
12:52A young athlete or an older athlete, whether he's all the way pro or AAU.
12:57The one-on-one is just, like, it's me.
13:02Like, I'm one-on-one.
13:03Like, I can do a lot.
13:04I can tap into fitness and health and wellness and tap into fashion.
13:08This was just, like, a no-brand to me to kind of, like, highlight that.
13:13I went to the OTE and just kind of, like, locked in with them.
13:16It was cool.
13:17It was a great experience.
13:18A lot of different players, like, that done reached out or just been always supporting me on it.
13:23And then Jeff Jefferson, KD, LeBron James, Carmella Anthony, Paul Pierce, Patrick Mahone, Trey Young.
13:47I'm always in Los Angeles.
13:49It wasn't, like, the girl is from Los Angeles.
13:53But, like, she likes L.A.
13:55She just was with me at the time.
13:57Like, this video was kind of, like, organic video where it was, like, oh, she with you?
14:04All right.
14:04She cool?
14:05Like, it's good?
14:06All right, let's shoot.
14:07And, like, we know we're shooting a video.
14:09You know there's beautiful women out there in Houston.
14:12So that's another place, like, that I already traveled to.
14:15And it was just, like, you know, we out here?
14:18Let's get something.
14:19You know what I'm saying?
14:19It really wasn't, like, let's fly to Houston and get this clip.
14:23Let's fly to L.A. and get this clip.
14:24Let's fly to New York and get this clip.
14:26It wasn't that.
14:28It's like, all right, we in New York.
14:29Oh, is she cool?
14:30All right, let's cool.
14:31Let's shoot it.
14:31That's why I was directed by me.
14:34Because I'm telling him, like, all right, this is a good time to shoot.
14:37This song was just kind of, like, trendy.
14:40It had started doing, like, a little trend to it.
14:43Like, anybody just grabbing any type of item and, like, she banking on me.
14:48I spank her.
14:48She love to get spanked.
14:49And I even did it, too.
14:51I had a hookah pole.
14:53And, like, I gave her a good spanking.
14:55It went viral.
14:57I had probably just put DS4 out, I believe.
14:59And then, like, I was like, damn, I forgot to give him this.
15:03Let me give him this now.
15:04For Valentine's Day, I put it up.
