0:00 I never chosen music the music chose me right damn that's deepest but you know what I'm talking about you like when music chooses you know I was um [Music] you're just now dropping into the middle of a new careful Boys episode David so is an hour today it's ████ lit in here right now dude what song is that you got it you got it specific songs that changed our lives let me tell you something man I ████ love music dude me too hey can we talk about that scissors album real quick though that's his album is ████ fire that's like something that everybody has been waiting to drop for a hot second
0:50 forever forever and it was worth the ████ it was so good it's not good it's so interesting right because like with music now um if you guys have if you guys do go to like live concerts and stuff one of the biggest disappointments that I ever had was going to these live concerts and finding out that monthly these ████ can't sink yeah oh who that happened with there's a lot of people like that I like Jason Chen could actually sing really really well he just seems About Soul that was seems like a ████ robot dude but like technically he has some of the best breath control I've ever heard in my life so if you look at his vocal tracks all of his waves are even so whenever he belts whenever he like controls his voice he can control it so ████ well it's unreal but it just sounds like there's no soul behind it did I drink too much I think he might be singing because he's thinking about the accents
1:41 you ████ you can do like we'll record a track hey I want to do a cover with you right which I'm like all right just that guess right it was hey can you do your runs and I'll copy your runs and I'm like you're the musician a comedian you set the set the music dude and this will just waiting can you do it again for me so I can copy it like how are you gonna cover a song and then cover my cover the professional coverer dude sweet little all right sausage changed her life uh how about we start uh with an era so we all error or theme ooh either okay just something that we can like all play in that realm because there's so many ████ Realms yeah uh jams that you would always listen to in your car um okay um this is almost a whole album but there's specific songs in it uh did you
2:32 guys ever have the street jams CDs oh Street jams I don't even know people know that ████ it's like the best of the best uh ████ Power 106 music Africa bambata like Planet Rock play at your own risk looking for the perfect beat but yeah Planet Rock okay Africa changed my life still yeah I was trying to find uh these albums at the car washes for the longest time because by the time I was looking for them they didn't even carry their music stores because they weren't popular so you had to get them out car washes like where the low rider hits were yeah yeah yeah yeah next to the girls yeah right and then in there there was uh so Planet Rock by Africa Baba and soul Sonic force was to me what I thought B boys listened to so then I would literally absorb it like I was getting Powers
3:22 it wasn't you take me to school it would be the thing playing like as if I had a like a show I was gonna do and I was memorizing it for that but no it was it just drove him crazy because he was like this is so old he was actually like for me in high school the ████ that I used to always bang in my car or bump in my car was always ████ Mac tray yeah dude that is so NorCal so that's what I'm saying so like but by the time time we were ████ doing that it was like four years later then it hit SoCal because music wasn't yeah it was later yeah so it would always be ████ first I do like this I put a look on my face like I smell sippist bounce to the beat till it started but not that's not they're smart off his shirt off me shirt I ████ love mattress was that before ghost riding is Ghost no that was why ghost riding was happening oh it was I mean
4:12 the song goes right now exactly people were doing it before it was like a Bay Area type of thing but then it became really popularized after then it got on the news because people were crashing cars all over the place yeah but my grade was a catalyst bro it was so weird because when I first listened to Max Ray and there was like Andre nicotino there was Keak the sneak there was all these people we I don't understand what he's saying but I never it's like E40 yeah [Laughter] I never really ████ with it because they always had like these janky-ass Casio ████ keyboard ████ citizenship for the tracks because it was like oh this ain't ████ real hip-hop but then for some reason it was so ████ that's what made it though dude I know it's like the pack Advanced
5:04 yeah so good this ████ has like two notes but it was a deep bass I used to crack the ████ up because it was I'm not gonna say her name but she was so ████ dumb and I remember they had that song come out go stupid right yeah so s t u p i d when we go to the club we don't need ID everywhere we go it's a party y'all we don't get it cracking like a Smartie glow right so we were we were at this club and this girl's so ████ dumb she didn't know how to spell stupid so she goes [Laughter] up bro I I paused I look and I was like trying to hide her lips I was like wait what'd you say though she was like I spelled it I said no spell it right now right and she's like but you ████ mean I'm like DJ cuts the music yeah spell it hey yo Club hold up turn on the lights turn on the lights ████ what you said
5:57 dude my first introduction to any of this ████ so like I lived in the cul-de-sac right and then my brothers and cousins went over to the neighbor's house and they would break dance in the garage so my first time just witnessing that ████ and then there was this one track it was paper boy the Ditty I was like what is this song and then my cousin got me like a little or or the neighbor someone got me a cassette tape of that song and I ████ obsessively played that ████ Non-Stop and that was my first like fall in love Jam well the strange thing about that song is that it was a word of mouth track because they didn't play that on the radio oh really at the time yeah damn not when it was like well I had the
6:47 cassette yeah that's why you were lucky because you just didn't hear it yeah and I just over and over and over and over and then the other one was um Warren G and Nate Dogg regulator and then those came in singles so there was that in like a b side or something but that was it you had one song and you listened to that one song and you played it over and over for like 10 hours straight till your whole house was annoyed of it you couldn't play songs out back then no well that's the hard part about music now is that you know now it's about well is anything in news in general right before you really sit there and you get to realize or like music like when people create a ████ album right there's so much thought put into it from the first track all the way to the end nowadays like somebody will review an album after a ████ like
7:38 three hours it's like how yeah yeah they just want to be the first one to like write about the company yeah you didn't sit with this album before they would give these people to uh people who would have to review right they would sit with it for like a month or two weeks because it changes every day it changes the first week you listen to it you're like okay whatever and then about the last week you're like oh my God bro I I used to not like uh John Legend's album revolver because he's flipped his sound a little bit and John Legend is like one of my biggest influences whatsoever right and I didn't like it and then one day my friend called me out he goes did you listen the album from track from the beginning to the end I was like no I heard a couple I hate it he goes well ████ go back and listen to it right I listened it sat in my car listened to the beginning to the end when I was driving from uh North Carolina SoCal and I ████ fell in love with the album because I didn't give it a ████ chance and so like the way that people consume content in music is really disappointing because they don't understand like how much effort an
8:29 artist puts in their album right you'll see now where uh my buddy Sue she's a rapper he was talking about he went to this one guy who's his son blew up on Tick Tock right and he had a concert it was packed out so these kids are arms crossed talking while he's performing his music until the tick tock song comes on and then they're paying attention he plays another song and they're just like this talking through his whole set dang and the guy was fed up he's like yo ████ this ████ dude but that's how people are consuming music like when we talk about our love for music like we had to sit there with these songs for a long time right they don't consume it like we because back then an LP right a full-on album was a journey from intro to the end that's why you had these stupid tracks or skits in between that made sense when you connect all the songs together Eminem did that ████ for me oh those skits in between that was my album yeah Marshall Mathers
9:19 LP I remember ████ just listening to that ████ story like what is this skit and then obviously at that time too you're like listening to the craziest skits because yeah it's Eminem So you're like this ████ time somebody bagging them in the car like what the ████ is he doing you know what I mean but that was that was the ████ back then I remember just loving every ████ hate where you go by sequence and you enjoyed that sequence yeah I know a song I want to play when I ████ die dude what is it what ████ Tupac dude life dude how many brothers fell victim to the street rest in peace you know victim to these streets as I build when me and Hawkins we went skydiving in Hawaii and they make you a video of your Skydive they put that as his song on this guy no way and he doesn't know we don't know why what the ████ why would
10:10 you do that on a sky Life Goes On no there's like I don't know music it's weird right because like I'll get a lot of comments now like specifically the patreon hey can you do a tutorial about like how to sing properly or whatever right the the hardest part about people that they don't understand like singing is so ████ complicated right uh specifically like when you when you you'll really start to understand if anybody wants to do music out there singing like casual like in a in a in a bathroom where there's a lot of Reverb covers up a lot of your mistakes when you record on a mic all your mistakes are so apparently it beats at you right staring back at you so nowadays which is why everybody sings in the shower exactly so you have autotune and melodyne the one thing that you can't stray away from is live performances yeah and then you hear it and it's the
11:00 worst experience ever because you can be a producer can make you great but it doesn't make you a great performer it doesn't mean that you could really sing while that's why I like acoustic performances a lot yeah man and like that's like as raw as it ████ there are certain I've been liking all the tiny desk ones dude they're so great that's a Rite of Passage you've survived that you're legit dude Mac Miller's tiny desk every time I watch it raw oh man hey you want to hear though yeah no but like one of the things too like I think a lot of like people don't understand is like when you sing like singing is so complicated to the point where you have to understand what you're seeing in order to make it sound really good and do you feel it no that is a really big thing that's a big thing it's a story that you tell one of the best devices that I ever had when I was like First recording music is that they're like okay what is the emotion that you're trying to portray when you sing
11:50 right and there's a lot of like stuff that comes after that with like breath control right so for example if if there's a lot of people who can hold a note but they don't know how to put the emphasis And the emotions in the right place right so you can be in key which is perfectly fine but how are you seeing it and how are people going to feel yeah Jason Chen you robot I can't even defend himself here's a great cover that a lot of people cover even like young people right like a lot of music Soul Child song oh yeah oh man he's too good music Soul Child songs are actually very very hard to cover and they don't and I notice it every time they cover it people are always a little bit off-key because his stuff is very very complicated like what's the what's the typical uh music oh that's another one because that key change right or even something like just friends right yeah right so how does
12:40 best friend start what's the beginning this might seem strange but let me know if I'm out of order for step into you this way you see I've been watching you for a while so go ahead take it take it take it it was harmonizing that's actually very very use I guarantee you hear anybody cover that song they're always a little they're off a few notes every time because they don't realize how complicated it is it's he's always shifting Keys girl I've been watching you for a while that's ████ hard but to do that live right uh yeah and while you're dancing
13:32 hahaha it's like and getting it right yeah you're not in your head and then even harder because there's this crazy keychain rough at the end I've been trying to cover that song forever but guaranteed every Filipino out there they say you can cover it yes and it makes my ears ████ bleed at the end because that last keychain because it keeps saying love love is so many things isn't that a Thai Dish yeah dang dude go ahead sing no that was oh my God he's aching to come out I gotta I gotta give it a the other shout out though because I did mention Marshall Mathers LP when I say Chronic 2001 was oh that's an Undisputed he took a big Hiatus he was talking about like albums you listen to in the
14:22 car I feel like in the car kind of 2001 for me was just that was pretty crazy that's the nowadays everybody want to talk about it got it that's it the Vietnamese version remix I do remember when doggy style came out oh Snoop Dogg and then it was you know I never listened to that ████ with my parents but my friend's parents they were young so when Dave and then they had subwoofers and ████ and then we would go to the beach and then his dad had like this Cutlass with ████ Rams and ████ so it was like kind of like Gangsta and then he leaned his chair back we're all kids in the back seat holding our towels like the ████ cars rattling and I'm like this is ████ who is that guy
15:16 it's funny his mom's black right and it's a mixed relationship his dad is white and he looks like the geekiest white guy like socks to his knees kind of like geeky white guy and he used to work in in some kind of film stuff like we used to pick him I remember his mom were like we would go pick up at like Fox Studios and all these different Studios so I knew it was like TV related but then so they was hit they were cool yeah that is cool but but this is hip-hop yeah this is hip-hop you know but that's it was just like man we're going to the beach we got the song and then like we have the windows rolled down and I was like this is so cool I wish I was part of your family man my parents my parents are whacked they're doing Opera ████
16:12 damn that's a crazy one because I got a song I got a song that I bet you Ryan can guess for mine can you guess right changed your life yeah I got one wow Yeah Daft Punk really around the world you know what's funny that's an honorable mention that's not the one I was thinking all right is Ed Sheeran I See Fire that's the one I was thinking about yeah wait why that one the hell what how does that one go okay let me give me give you the origins yeah that one's like oh I see five um it was that the end of The Hobbit I'll tell you I'll tell you where it came from uh what most people know me for I choreographed to it we ended up doing it as the last performance on ABDC it just had like a notoriety in that space what it really like I I always tell people who are like fans of my dance and stuff like that that there was like where do you get your music blah blah how do you choose music and I'm
17:03 like the best routines I've ever created the best anything I never chose the music chose me you know what the ████ you mean right damn that's deep as ████ but you know what I'm talking about you like when music choose you know I was um I know a song that chose me in high school Ambitions as a writer like that oh that's on fire that makes sense for you though like that so I was living at Alhambra at the time I was right next to the ████ Alhambra ████ uh movie theater and ████ like that and uh The Hobbit desolation of smog the second one had come out right and me and my boy uh Rob we were like hey dude let's take cubes like hey you want to take some shrooms and I was like okay so we took some shoes you want to go watch The Hobbit it's like okay all
17:53 right there's something terribly stupid about doing that okay because in The Hobbit desolation of smog number one the whole ending sequence is a giant ████ Dragon that's ████ Chasing The Hobbit you know what I mean it's like dungey's buff like when you're on shrooms usually you want to be like happy and chill oh it's gonna you're not trying to see a ████ Dragon like coming at you so I'm like sitting there we probably have 30 minutes of anxiety that like nobody signed up [Laughter] sometimes to me the power in some like shrooms is like the aftermath there's like a Euphoria when like the anxiety goes away if anybody knows what I'm talking about right and so this whole final climactic sequence of this dragon is like ████ destroying everything about our lives and then it like blacks out to the credits right and the blacks
18:44 out so you're just like because you know how like it's the second of three movies so kind of like Cliffhanger right okay guys and then out of nowhere Ed Sheeran's voice is like oh Mr and it's ████ beautiful oh it starts with that part it starts right there at the credits and I ████ you not again when you're on you just got up and started bro this music this song comes on and it's so it's so overwhelmingly the opposite feeling but at the same level of tension yeah that's time I ████ like started like tearing up would you have felt the same without the shrimps uh I think I would have felt I would have known for sure that I was beautiful as ████ but God damn all the shrooms you're like yeah the catharsis was like 100 eggs and then I remember and it wasn't like yo I got a choreograph to this it was just more like oh my God this song just
19:35 saved me because I was in such ████ like a darker place right yeah and then after that it just stuck with me I could not let go of it like you're like I have to choreograph to this song I just created to it after the fact because it was stuck with me it was like the song found me to save me in that moment holy ████ and people a lot of people don't know that but because you know and fans of me they're like you know that's like that's like it's like what he's saying right like you've been singing hit a key to something but like do you have the soul in it yeah and like that ████ that song gave me my ████ soul back there's like that that's true though that that emotion part is so important right and people can feel it it's something like that's not very tangible people just know it right so like even when people try to sing r b there's always a stark difference when somebody has so much soul and somebody's just singing notes right yep you know what I'm talking about because you I need to ████ feel like they're trying to ████
20:26 yeah you're like oh I can feel the romance oh I could feel that energy it's not lips because you're trying to make money off of that because you know what I'm saying it's like you wrote that because it came from a real last place and there's because you were so thirsty about that so what voicemail did uh Can You Stand The Rain right it legit sounds like they're crying throughout that whole song that was my Breakup Song bro that ████ right there Can You Stand The Rain right when that actually came outside bro I can't stand the rain I should be hitting you hard dog I thought you was talking about Missy Elliott who's got the keys to the Jeep I can't stand I was like I'm sorry yeah that ████ right there got me ████ hard dude in two different ways you know I'm saying let's go mine was
21:17 rage against machine know your enemy that was your breakup song no that changes now yeah how did that change your life because there's a line in that song that says um like they talk about teachers and all these stuff right and they go they are the ones that teach you to fight you you know that's that was such a confusing thing I had to pull out the jacket and I was like reading it and I was like teach me to fight me or whatever and then also they're talking about big words like in ninth grade I didn't know what assimilation was I don't know what you know they were they yell that's out at the end of the song they'd be like assimilation whatever whatever and I'm like man this is a dope beat but I don't know what these words are I'm stupid and then when I started looking into it I'm like oh ████ this is crazy about brainwashing how government propaganda what the word propaganda means all that
22:07 stuff and then just digging into it was like he's a ████ lie oh ████ that did change his life then yeah oh I could see that though yeah right oh ████ yeah so changing this ████ assimilation simulation changed his life dude mine is Jill Scott golden that's a great I don't know what it is about that song but anytime I hear that song I'm like dude this is what this was which one is that [Music] living my life like it's golden living my life I love that song yeah yeah you didn't change my life but I just feel I gotta say though man like not in the in the in a disrespectful way man but dude man that's pretty gay man I know and that's why I feel like I connect to it that's kind of me I feel like I feel like I'm in that in a positivity that's gay bro I feel like a strong powerful woman is it gay that I loved uh the
22:58 album beginning to end big Willy Style okay no because I did too no no no no no no that doesn't help your case though at all come on okay sorry it is gay but I did too I Really Love Gaining that's getting a good way man yeah but is it gay that I really saw that that dude the game is always welcome to my end dude is it is it gay that I like that song is raining man yes that's way up there bro no because there's a chance that's symbolic of something cool it's raining men uh the way yeah it's Rain Man song that makes you cry song that made you cry out of Happiness not sadness oh dude you know what there's one it's by Kai wow it's cold it's called last to know
23:49 oh my gosh old school it was on the same like LP or EP that they had say you'll stay do you remember say you'll stay by Kai yes yes a better classic one I just don't know your one yeah there was one there was a like kind of like a B-side one called last to know and it literally is just about how like he's the last to know that his girl doesn't want to be with him no more and I just imagine that was also me when I had my breakup I also dapping the CD players I guarantee you if you guys is the queen then don't stop me now you'll be happy as a ████ cause I'm done I'm having a good time having a good time
24:46 Unwritten Natasha Bedingfield uh isn't that like a culture shock thing yeah well we always joke and laugh and sing it like we always sing it we laugh about it I was like staring at the blank page before you open up the commercial we're gay we're gay we're gay [Music] so close thank you foreign
