LOGIC Talks Music Industry, Anime, His New Movie

Have you said no to a freak off ever?

I was never invited, thank God.

You didn't get invited to a freak off?

Definitely not.

I wouldn't have gone.

Does that feel like hurt your feelings a little bit?

No.

No, you would have said no, obviously, but it's a little bit like...

I didn't go to the club for the first time until I was 28 years old and I was paid to be invited to.

If I got

a telegram or an invitation to a freak off 1908.

If I got one of these invitations to a freak off, I'd say, listen, I humbly decline, but I appreciate the consent.

Oh, my God, a fair shoe, almighty.

Very excited to be back.

Thank you guys for supporting the show.

We love doing it and we want to do it forever.

Let me start this week by addressing something.

I wish I didn't have to, but it seems I do.

As many of you know, in my last episode, I sat down with hip-hop legend G Herbo, and it sent shockwaves throughout the culture.

It seems like many of those in the establishment didn't take too kindly to a new face, breakdancing his way in to the hip-hop and RB space.

My name has been dragged through the mud subsequently.

My reputation has been brought into question.

Most notably, libelist claims were levied at me by prominent anti-Semitic DJs, Vlad and academics.

Well, I kind of think it was really more the bozo who was doing the interview.

Right?

What was his name?

I don't know his name.

Friedman or some motherfucker.

It's like one of these.

He wanted a

Jewish kid that probably got beat up, you know, and finally has a little bit of a voice and is trying to be tough because he actually called you a bitch on Twitter or stuff like that.

Well, of course he.

He called you a bitch in the interview, too.

Well, he's trying to engage with me.

I wouldn't.

We already got the dossier on him.

We got him doing Blackface all type of stuff.

I just don't want to.

What?

Yeah, we just don't want to engage.

What?

He does Blackface.

Come on.

Yo, show me the picture.

Show me.

I want to see this shit.

Vlad, let me tell you.

Fuck that guy.

Because you know what?

I said, hey, man, I heard you want to debate.

Hit me up.

I said, your platform or mine.

Let's go.

Glad.

He didn't even respond.

Show me the blackface.

This is him.

Okay.

No.

Come on now.

Look at this.

Yo, listen, we keep the files.

Look at this.

Look at this.

We keep the files on them.

Look at this.

You know?

So, like, oh, you're a racist.

Fuck you.

Now, this allegation shocked me.

Anyone who knows me knows that I hate racism.

But if there's anything I hate more than racism, it's blackface.

I've never participated in it, and I've cut people out of my life for putting it on.

So when it comes to blackface, I have a zero tolerance policy.

So I went looking.

I looked for an answer to how this image could possibly exist.

I scoured the dark web for hits.

I consulted with ranking members of law enforcement.

I even considered perhaps that this photo was of a real African American that looks exactly like me.

In the end,

the perpetrator was right under my nose.

Who is this Judas Iscariot?

Turns out it was none other than true crime podcaster Brace Belden.

Now, to avoid litigation, my lawyers negotiated a recorded statement by Mr.

Brace Belden himself, where he explains that this whole situation was entirely his fault.

And I will play it for you now.

It's filled with art, drama, music, rappers, and mafiosi alike.

I've learned a lot of lessons, and one of the big lessons that I've learned is that I need to stand up for the truth no matter how unpopular that might be.

On a recent episode of one of your shows, I could not tell which, but you boys were both there, DJ Academics shows DJ Vlad a hurtful picture on his phone of a comedian named Adam Friedland wearing both black face, as DJ Academics tells it, and a cowboy hat.

Now, DJ Academics, I know that you have a fidelity to the truth and you wouldn't say anything that you didn't believe.

And so I have to let you in on a little bit of information that might damage my reputation, but at least will help burnish you with facts.

I made that picture.

And that's not a picture of Adam Friedland wearing blackface.

That's a picture of Adam Friedland wearing a cowboy hat that I ran through a filter of an application called FaceApp in the summer of 2017.

I want to stress that Adam had nothing to do with that picture.

There may well be, and there probably are, many pictures of Adam Friedland wearing blackface out there.

And if you want to damage his reputation or end his career or even his life, I won't stand in your way.

But that picture is not of Adam Friedman wearing blackface.

So to the DJs, Vlad, and academics, I'm here to stay.

And I'm actually a pretty good guy once you get to know me.

I've been to too many funerals over petty squabbles like this.

So here's your olive branch.

Meet me.

Face to face here on the Adam Friedman Show.

Before Twitter Twitter fingers turn to trigger fingers, let's sit down like men.

And I can't wait to see you soon.

Everyone, please put your hands together for logic, guys.

Wrap it up!

Where is he?

Ah!

Oh!

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Is this side okay?

This side is okay, yes, certainly.

Just making sure.

Good to see you.

Good to see you.

Thanks for coming, dude.

Oh, I'm excited.

You know the show?

A bit, yeah.

Really?

You took a picture in front and stuff?

I can't believe it.

Yeah.

We've had one rapper here before.

It was Jadica, someone manipulated and tricked him into being here.

Jadis, the coolest guy.

He's the funniest and coolest guy ever.

Even though I've never got to meet him.

I took a picture out there because 10 years ago

I did my first late night television show.

This doesn't count.

I mean, it's all.

What are you talking about?

No, this is a, we're in an office building.

This is incredible.

What do you mean?

Thank you so much.

This is why I wanted to do this show.

Really?

There's so much care and thought.

And yeah, so I did Fallon.

And I was so nervous.

And I'm still nervous.

Really?

No way.

So this is great.

I'm not Jamie Fallon.

I'm just a machine.

I'm a smug.

Dude, no, you're not.

And it was cool because I took the picture because there's a picture of me so nervous before and just doing that as a musician and now being here also as a filmmaker for my first movie.

Thank you for having me.

Congrats

on the movie.

Thanks, by the way.

Give it up for it.

Appreciate it.

A lot of your mixtapes of records, they reference films, obviously.

You wanted to be a filmmaker your entire life, pretty much, or before you wanted to be a rapper or no?

I've always loved cinema.

Also, if my voice sounds raspy, it's because I've been fucking talking a lot.

I heard it.

I've been so exhausted, and I think I had a cold, and this whole thing.

You were in the view earlier.

No, I wasn't.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

All right.

So anyway, but the thing that I've always loved cinema because it allowed me to escape my household, you know, I guess mentally.

And

the very elevator pitch of my childhood is like mother was a prostitute, dad was on crack, mom was an alcoholic, brothers in the streets shooting guns and cooking crack and wildness and all this craziness.

So I was able to escape through cinema.

Yeah.

And

my entry point into music, like truly, as a musician, I was about 13 years old and I saw Kill Bill

by Quentin Tarantino.

And the Rizza, James.

He did the score.

He did the score.

Yeah.

And that was, and you were like, I want to be a musician from the Kill Bill score.

Yeah.

Really?

Well, it was, you know.

You hadn't heard hip-hop before that?

At the end of the day, until 30 years.

I had ears.

You're from Rockville, Maryland?

Born in Rockville, raised in Gaithersburg, but it's the same shit.

Do you think that becoming a rapper was

a quiet rebellion

against being from Rockville?

No, probably not.

Oh, okay.

I would have assumed you were a rocker from...

I would have assumed I was.

Sorry.

I see.

You know,

is the influence for the movie Joe's Record Paradise?

Have you been there before?

Whoa.

I used to work in downtown Silver Spring.

This is what

I've been wanting to ask you.

All right, Nardoir.

I bought some great records out of that shop.

So

I worked at the Discovery build at Discovery.

Do you remember in downtown Silver Spring?

No.

The Discovery

Networks.

You got a lint on you.

No, no, it's Standard.

Okay.

Standard.

I'm a Discovery.

Sorry, I have OC.

Yeah.

I bought some great stuff there.

Have you been there before?

I have, and I would have never remembered it unless you just said it right now.

Really?

You unlocked like a core memory.

Really?

Yeah, this is like right next to

wild shit.

Do you remember that?

They're like the rare record section?

No, I don't.

They have like a section that was like a little bit like cordoned off.

Nice.

And I bought bought it.

I bought some.

I was cordoned.

Yeah, yeah.

See, it's the late night in game.

Get out of the...

Hopefully ICE takes that one away.

It's horrible, right?

Wow.

No, I'm just gonna.

Sorry, sorry.

Sorry.

How old are you?

I'm 35.

So we're, yeah, we're around the same age.

For shizzle.

Yeah.

That's, so like, so you have obviously a really crazy backstory, which you like go into a lot in your career and stuff that you reference.

And your dad is like,

something I found interesting when I was researching researching is like your dad is kind of like you've reconnected with, but it doesn't seem like as if you've reconnected with your mother like you have.

Great question.

Yeah.

So my dad, I mean, that's the whole thing.

My mom, so one of the last times I had spoken to my mom was on my 21st birthday.

And I hadn't seen her in a few years, you know, and the thing about my mother is...

She's just a mentally ill person.

You know what I mean?

So I've definitely relinquished any anger or any of that that I had.

But I hadn't seen her in a few years since I was probably 17, 18.

And the last time I had seen her, she was like covered in blood and naked and screaming, and the police were there.

It was the whole thing.

Oh, word.

It was wild.

My sister calls me crying, talking about, mommy says you don't talk to her because of me.

And I'm like, what the fuck does that have to do with this?

This doesn't make any sense.

So I call my mother,

having not spoken in a few years, and I'm just like, look, respectfully,

I don't talk to you because of you and because there is no mutual respect here and it's your way or the highway with everything.

Um,

so just know that.

And then she yelled at me and screamed at me and called me a n and then hung up the phone.

Oh, yeah, yeah, gnarly.

Yeah,

you gave her the pass, or no, no, definitely not.

No, no, no, it's pretty raw to be like exposing.

I mean, I guess it's part of your art and part of your career, it's like talking about I'm just an honest person, yeah, you know, and I think a lot of that in hip-hop is very taboo.

Your father, well, you said he's is he from D.C., your dad?

He just spent his whole life in Chocolate City playing African percussion.

He played Go-Go?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Did he play Go-Go?

When was the first time you made a beat?

Oh man.

Was it on the library computer at school?

No, I wish.

I remember the first time.

Well, I recorded music before.

I ever made a beat.

I was about 15 years old, and I had this super like dinosaur manila computer and computer monitor.

And on the monitor, there was this tiny little microphone hole.

And I would just rap into it like this.

And I still have the recordings.

Really?

Oh, yeah.

I have every song I've ever recorded.

How many songs have you made?

That's

probably

like two plus thousand songs.

Really?

Yeah.

And so what like got you,

what got you like to LA?

This was back when like something like Twitter was just like, you'd be like, yo, I just had some eggs.

Like that's what Twitter was for at the time.

Me and other incredible musicians, whether it was Big Sean, Mac Miller, Wiz Khalifa, we were utilizing Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube, especially Twitter, as a platform to promote ourselves, which nobody was really doing at the time, which almost sounds like not real.

Everybody promotes themselves on Twitter now, but it was a different time.

So you're like pre-SoundCloud, kind of.

Yes.

You're the Debt Piff era.

This is, yeah, this is like pre-spot.

Like, I remember being called from my manager at the time being like, yo, Spotify, Spotify.

I'm like, what the fuck is that shit?

It's a Swedish thing.

You get six cents for every one million players.

And some fish.

Yeah.

They give you fish?

That's Swedish fish.

Who signed you at Def Jam?

No ID.

Really?

The legendary No ID.

And was he your first mentor?

No ID was the one who told me I was a producer.

So going back to what you were saying, you know, kind of why I started here was like,

I'm like, what?

I'm not a producer.

I just rap.

Yeah.

But we'd be in the studio and I'd be telling No ID, like, could you change the drums to like these drums you did?

And can we get this on that?

And all this.

And he just, he had seen that.

And without kind of even announcing it to me, he was like,

just go work with these people over here and he gave me some of his best musicians and so cool other producers and and taught me a lot

taught me to swedish fish i wish i was

that's i'm so jealous of him

yeah what am i what am i gonna get put on by jerry sinefell and like he's i want you to work with andrew schultz jerry's jerry's jerry's awesome what i met jerry in vegas and you lived in vegas for a while i grew up in vegas yeah

he's got some great opinions on global politics right now.

Yeah, I watch anime.

No.

So

kind of coming under no idea's wing,

you have a sibling in terms of him being a mentor also for Kanye.

I mean, that's the first thing that comes to mind for me.

For sure, yeah.

I mean, that's a big thing, regardless of the current state of my anime watching in the world and the craziness going on.

You know, huge inspiration musically, especially in that era.

Did you see the genius documentary on Netflix?

The Kanye one?

Oh,

you mean the one, like the three-parter?

The three-parter.

I only saw two parts.

Yeah, so you don't need to see the third.

It doesn't go anywhere.

Yeah, because it unravels.

There's no narrative there.

That's the sad part, is that there's no come to Jesus moment.

But the first one and a half parts is like amazing because it's like a document of like the the hip-hop that I was exposed to as like a teenage teenager right which was like the Mitchell and Ness Rockefeller records kind of era but what's incredible about it is that you could tell that like Kanye is this guy that made the best beats right oh yeah and he made the blueprint and but he's a nerd he's a gay nerd and we're like they're like

they're like he's like but they're like this gay nerd makes best he makes the best beats and and he's like but I want to be a rapper and they're like okay yeah sure you know yeah you can be a rapper.

And literally, he's just being ignored by people because they're like, a gay nerd can never be a rapper.

I remember hearing the college dropout when I was a kid, and I was like, this is the first gay nerd.

It felt like Wakanda or something for me.

It felt like Black Panther.

I felt representation.

I was like, this guy.

This guy,

my mom makes me wear those polos when we're going to fucking Thanksgiving.

I was like, this is amazing.

Woo, you got bars right now.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, I think that it's really amazing that, like, in retrospect, I realized, I was like, it really all changed then and there.

He really made the, he, he set the.

808 and heartbreaks, man.

Especially, like, that was the.

Is that yours?

Your?

No, I think that was the one where it's like.

He was being a gay nerd?

When I first went to LA and No ID played me, like, the demos from the sessions, and I heard Kanye mumbling on it.

Chuff the yard.

I heard Kanye

mumbling, like,

like getting to it.

And I was like, whoa, you can do that?

Like, I thought everything had to be precise.

And he's just going in there, like, not even making words, just making sounds.

And I found it very inspiring.

Yeah.

Have you interacted with him much?

Never.

I'm kind of scared to.

Really?

Yeah.

Do you love him?

Do you love him?

Like, when you were like young?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

A thousand percent.

I loved him.

Yeah.

What's the most evil meeting you ever took?

Did you ever get into a boardroom?

There's the Monopoly Mans on the other side of the side of the table.

A thousand percent.

Yeah.

That's pretty much every meeting.

Really?

Yeah, and that's why I ended up making my own movie myself, which we'll get to.

Going independent, yeah.

Yeah, but what the fuck was I saying before you interrupted me?

I don't know.

I was talking about Israel.

Yeah, before that.

I don't know.

It's just this war, it's pretty much.

No, you were talking about no ID, and then he was suggesting that you work with other people, and then, and then, oh, and then, you know, obviously

you brought up Jay-Z, Kanye West.

I forgot.

Africa Bombada,

Cool Modi,

Eric B.

and Rock him.

Okay, I like

Karen as well.

Do you like that stuff?

Of course, a thousand percent.

But doesn't it sound like nursery rhyme?

It sounds a little bit baby, though.

When I listen to it.

Mary had a little la.

It's like kind of a little bit baby.

I love the...

I don't want to...

Is that disrespectful?

I mean, it's just sometimes...

It might get jumped.

Were people at parties like trying to get with girls while like...

Well,

check up a hat store today.

And I bought myself a hat.

I'm a hat.

I'm a little down a boat.

Jack, but quick.

But that was the vibe, though.

Yeah.

That was the vibe.

It just sounds a little baby to me.

All right.

I don't know.

I love it.

I'm a student.

Yeah.

And I'm an MC, right?

So as a master's ceremony, I think it's very important that you do your research.

And I've done my research on hip-hop as I was entering this realm.

And it's important to me.

What are your primary influences?

It seems like you're kind of a golden era 93 kind of Nas kind of.

Yeah, I love Nomadic.

I love Most Deaf, Black on Both Sides.

The Roots, obviously from Philly.

They're incredible.

I mean, Eminem.

Have you ever met Scott Storch?

Yes.

You know, he was the original

player.

How cool is that?

How cool is it that you know that?

I love him so I'm obsessed with this guy.

Yeah.

I swear to God.

He smokes a lot of weed.

He got addicted to yachts and cocaine.

Yes.

And now he's back.

I heard an interview once when he went on drink champs.

The first time he went on drink champs.

I never went on drink champs.

You're thinking of breakfast clubs.

No, no.

No, I'm talking about

Scott Storch and Noriega.

I guess you said you.

Noriega said he was so addicted to yachts that he picked him up at the airport in a yacht and they took the yacht to TGI Friday.

Like it was a like it was a car or something.

How awesome is that?

How awesome is this?

I don't know.

This is great.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Don't apologize.

The bit is.

It's not a bit.

It's a funny thing that he said.

He commit to the bit.

He also said another thing that him and his friends got addicted to a thing called the Miami Blizzard.

Where

he said he was on his boat with a legendary female pop singer.

And he offered her cocaine.

And she said, yeah, but I don't do it in my nose.

I do it in my Kulo.

And he's like, really?

You could do that?

And then him and his friends got addicted to just blowing drugs into women's bums.

Isn't that crazy?

They called it the Miami Blizzard.

Wow, that's so tight.

He likes it.

We got one guy.

The camera guys are scared.

No, I'm sorry, dude.

You don't like

smutty

subject matters?

Have you seen my movie?

Your movie's like lovely.

Yeah, but it's full of some wild shit.

Yeah, but it's not like blowing drug

into like a row of porn stars' bums.

It's not like so gratuitous.

There's a heart in your movie.

I want to get to your movie actually

later on.

Yeah, yeah.

Because I was like,

yeah, I thought it was really nice.

And like, I could see the influences, and it seems like you watched the same movies as me growing up.

Clerks was clearly an influence, right?

You had Kevin Smith in the movie.

Yep.

But it was high fidelity.

How much was high fidelity?

A thousand percent.

John Cusack, classic.

Do you remember when you were like...

Do you remember being 12 and being like

your heart, like heartbroken by that movie?

Because you just wish you'd get all the girls back.

It was a great film.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

I love that movie so much.

Me too.

Tim Robbins crushes it.

Tim Robbins is you just want to shoot him in the back of the head, that guy.

That means he's a great guy.

With the soul patch.

Oh, it's terrible.

He's got the pussy tickler.

Hairs, hair bits.

Yeah, no.

Did you have like peers that were like, you know, like guys that you were like around the same age as and like you you felt like you were boys with or is it like there's no friends no i i definitely always felt kind of alone you know what i mean like why is that uh probably because i stick to myself yeah pause

and uh

so there was that whole thing you know but i i'm a very open person so anytime i'd meet anybody it's like we we would definitely vibe so there's a lot of people on that list like travis was super awesome and Schoolboy's a great dude.

And Absol was so cool.

And Dizzy Wright, I mean, me and Dizzy Wright went on tour together.

So, yeah, there was a lot.

Mac Miller was always super kind and cool.

Me and Wiz, now, that's like one of my best homies and shit.

Yeah, Big Sean.

Oh, I know he is.

He's huge, yes.

Yeah, it's insane.

He looks like fucking Dalsum from Street.

I saw a picture of him the other day.

I was like, Wiz Khalifa's jacked now.

Insane.

Yeah, and he's still piffing, too.

Big time.

He's just like lifting and piffing?

It's pretty difficult, it must be.

Pifting.

Piff it.

Pifting.

Pifting.

Piffting.

Yeah.

So you, so, but you, you felt like a little bit of an outsider?

Uh, yeah, understatement.

Because you gotta understand, this is at a fucking time.

Well, one, I look how I look, right?

So there's just that immediate thing.

And then there's also the fact that I'm rapping about peace, love, and positivity and fucking sci-fi and anime and nerd shit.

It was very much so, like, we don't fuck with that away.

Really?

Yeah.

But I feel like nerds could be rappers, though.

No, nerds are rappers.

They have been rappers.

You know, it's like, look at Cuddy, look at Lupe, you know, look at all these people who have inspired me.

It was just, I don't know.

So you think that

they're like, this guy's a total dweeb?

That's not nice.

For sure.

You should tell them that you were cooking crack when you were a baby.

What were they doing?

They were in the suburbs.

Yeah.

Did you have any mentors like beyond no Idea, like any rappers that have kept an eye out for you?

I don't know.

You know, I really feel like my first

real mentor in life was Jesus Christ.

Is Kevin Smith.

Really?

Yeah.

You met like his films or like you read.

No, like he was a human being.

Like when I met, it was just so much there.

Did you ever ask him about that tweet?

That he did.

Which tweets?

A lot of tweets, man.

I don't know.

He did that tweet about him and his wife.

I don't have no idea what you're talking about.

You know what?

I'm not on the internet.

I've been on social media in eight years.

I can find find it.

Almost eight years.

It's pretty good.

You can read it.

No, you can read it.

It's fine.

You got it.

Just read it out.

Ten years in and we bone like we're cheating on each other with each other.

A decade plus and her clit slash brown slash taint dash area still pones my dick.

I love that.

Did you ask him about that?

So romantic.

Is that bars?

It's big bars.

You should put that in a song.

It's all right.

I'll sample this.

Yeah, yeah.

Have you said no to a freak off ever?

I was never invited, invited, thank God.

You didn't get invited to a freak off?

Definitely not.

I wouldn't have gone there.

Does that feel like hurt your feelings a little bit?

No.

No, you would have said no, obviously, but it's a little bit like a-I don't do, I watch anime.

Like, I don't know how, like, I'm not that guy.

If I got, I didn't go to the club for the first time until I was 28 years old, and I was paid to be there in Vegas.

Shout out, Drees.

Yeah.

If I got a

telegram or an invitation to a freak off.

Is this 1908?

If I got one of these invitations to a freak off, I'd say, listen, I humbly decline, but I appreciate it.

Okay, so you'd be happy to do that.

Did you know about that, like, sinister side of

the business and hip-hop in general?

I didn't know about none of that shit.

No, that's some wild shit.

But I always knew that it was filled with misogyny.

And I was raised by women, so my reverence and respect for women is like through the roof.

Like, I'm not fucking weird.

Yeah.

And

I've never seen anything like crazy happen or in front of me or this or that.

But maybe it's because they know.

Maybe I just present myself as a good human being and they're like, oh, no, we can't invite him.

He's not going to come.

He's not going to be down with his Illuminati shit.

He's not freak off material.

Thank God.

Who's the biggest piece of shit?

I have no idea.

Probably Diddy.

No.

I don't know.

He could get off, dude.

What are you doing?

I'm just.

You're doing the thing.

Did you know he was doing Rico the whole time?

I have no idea.

I watched it.

What is Rico?

What is Rico?

It's like the whole fucking poster.

It's like an Italian kind of thing?

I have no idea.

Yeah.

It's a mafia kind of thing.

All right.

Is it tough for you to court a female audience?

I don't think so.

But usually they're like allergic to logic and facts.

It's good.

Good bits, man.

I thought he would like that.

How important is it for a rapper to have a website?

Like a good website?

When you moved to LA to like to make it in music, did you get like a business card or something?

I did have business cards.

That's kind of cool.

Well you're trying something.

I just wanted people to be like, hey, I care about this.

Your first name was Psychological?

Yes.

Yeah.

And then when did you drop that?

When my fucking friend Lenny was like, hey, pass the salt, psycho, psycho,

did you drop the psycho?

Was it like a kind of like,

I'm going to be normal now?

Yeah.

I'm not loco anymore?

Just logic.

Just Lenny, big Lenny, who took me into his basement.

When did you choose psychological?

A buddy of mine was like, go through the dictionary.

That's like a 13-year-old.

Oh, well, I was 18, unfortunately, when I picked this up.

Yes, Sam.

Yeah, it's fine.

So I just went and I was like, psychological, and I read the definition.

It was like about the brain and the mind.

And I was like, yeah.

So it's just like a Wu-Tang kind of word.

For sure.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm into lyrics.

Yo, we need to psychological.

I need to put that in a beat.

I'm into lyrics.

Can we remember that?

I feel a little weird.

Why?

Because I think I've just been going.

Because I know more about reps.

So I just hope I'm not fucking this up.

No, you're not fucking this up, dude.

You're fine.

Yeah.

Maybe it's the lights.

Lights up?

This is the thing, right?

This is a real talk show.

I saw you spent $226,000 on a Pokemon card.

Yeah.

On Charizard.

It's because I couldn't afford it as a kid.

Yeah.

So yellow.

Do you think that rich people should pay more in taxes?

I do.

Yeah.

I pay 55% of every dollar I make.

Really?

Yes.

Every single one?

Every single dollar.

On Pokemon?

No.

What anime do you like?

Oh, I love Cowboy Bebop and Trigun and fucking Samurai Chample and Space Dandy.

Really?

Oh, yeah, big time.

Fucking Dragon Ball, especially Super,

I mean, Akira, and fucking Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke.

Honestly, it's all the like, people would be like, like, I'm just naming the like...

Oh, and My Hero.

I love My Hero.

Barney.

That's live action.

Clues, clue.

Anyway, sorry.

I never got into that anime.

I just loved it.

I love it.

It's a whole vibe.

You know, something that's big, like, because I'm getting into this YouTube space.

You've actually done this pivot yourself recently, and you're

putting out content consistently, and you're kind of showing the real you to your audience and stuff, I've noticed.

But something I've noticed that's big is like

getting an anecdote from a guest, like a wild story about a famous person

that you can then clip and then that can go viral.

So I was wondering if you can give us one of those.

If you got any good ones?

I know this is like an Elon Musk pause.

Just give me a second.

I'm thinking.

No, it's a sign of intelligence to be considering.

Because there's so much I could tell you.

Okay, here's the time.

that my well one thing I'll just give you is one of my favorite openings for my memoir for a chapter is I'll never forget the night I had a sleepover and my friend Richie saw my mom's pussy before she destroyed the television set.

So that's pretty cool.

But one time, it was 2013 and this was a year after I saw J.

Cole sell out the Fillmore in Silver Spring and I sold out the Fillmore on fucking mixtape and I couldn't believe it.

And this dude

throws this shoe on stage and almost hits me in the head.

And then my brother in the crowd just starts beating the shit out of this guy.

And while this is happening, somebody jumps off the second story and like breaks their leg and then surfs and jumps in the funny crowd and crowd surfs.

And then

in the end of the night backstage, my brother's bringing the dude that he beat up into the green room.

The shoe throw.

Yeah.

And I'm like, holy shit.

We used to work together at Joe's Crab Shack.

Really?

I know this isn't like freak off level story, but this is all I got.

I thought you were going to be like,

yeah, insert bit here.

Do you remember that someone did that to George Bush in Iraq?

Oh he was like yeah he ducked the shoe.

It's crazy.

Yeah apparently in the Muslim world that's like the what height of insult.

Politics, religion, all that shit is a super slippery slope and I have used and will continue to use my voice

for Godza.

I've never checked out anime.

Where should I start?

Cowboy Bebop.

Really?

Oh yeah.

What is that about?

It's basically about these bounty hunters in the future that live on Mars.

Mars and survive.

You should watch sports, dude.

I'm not a sports guy.

Come on, bro.

I'm a sports guy with my friends.

Like,

they have it on and shit, and I'll watch it and be like, woo!

Like, I'm watching this basketball game.

I'm like, here comes the motherfucking punt.

They don't punt in basketball, dude.

Okay, my bad.

I'm watching football.

I'm watching football.

I'm watching football.

It's like, here's the free throw.

It's the whole thing.

It's fine.

Yeah, that the Lint.

It's Dandruff.

I felt bad about that.

You're still thinking about that?

I hold things in.

You're a multi-platinum selling rapper.

Do you remember when you were like, you ever walk away and go, fuck?

Yeah.

You did that on the way to P?

No, that's, yeah, that's that moment.

No, come on, dude.

Yeah, I feel bad about it.

Don't worry about it.

Sorry.

So, like, head and shoulders or what?

Just rocking it?

No,

I have something like a medicated.

I go to a dermatologist.

Is it a thing?

I've medical dandruff.

Have you ever been like...

Yeah, it's a struggle.

Let's get a clip.

It was 2007.

No.

Yeah, it was.

That's how I feel.

I have a tremor.

It's a neurological disorder.

It's called a cervical dystonia, which I think is weird because I don't have a cervix.

Yeah.

That's always a

cervical, it's the neck.

Is it?

Yeah.

Anyway, so when I was like 29,

so in 2019, my head just started going like this.

Really?

And I can't stop it.

So like if I stay still, my head will just shake, shake, shake.

I haven't noticed you doing that.

Well, there's two reasons.

One, because I move a lot.

I have all these ticks and things that I do that I'm like, do people understand?

Like, do they see?

I feel like fucking Rain Man.

So I'll adjust my things.

I'm really weird about it.

And I was very self-conscious for a long time.

The cool thing about being self-conscious, like if you're anxious or you feel a little anything, is just saying it.

I personally believe I'd rather...

Like yesterday I did this panel and I felt horrible.

So I just, while I was there at Tribeca, I was just like, hey, everybody, I'm having anxiety.

I'm really tired.

I think I might be sick and I have to poop.

You said that?

And I just let it be known.

Yeah, it's a whole thing.

But anyway,

oh, a thousand percent.

I'm just like, yo, this is what it is.

I'd rather be me.

So anyway, I found this fucking doctor who uses Botox.

Oh, I see the gears going already.

Who uses Botox in the deep part of the muscles in the neck to weaken them because my muscles go like this, which force.

And it works?

Yeah, it works.

But it's wearing off because I have to do it once every three months.

It's why I have a

really sexy neck.

When did you lose your V?

Probably like 11.

I'm a virgin.

Shut up, dude.

Yeah.

No, seriously.

No.

If you had

a wild upbringing,

you probably just

lost your V at 11.

Yeah, I've never had sex.

No, shut up.

I've never had sex.

Just go on the record.

Everyone's on Reddit speculating.

Where does logic lost his virginity?

My wife.

No, for real.

My wife, it was artificial insemination.

It was a whole thing.

Like Jesus Christ.

No, because, you know, we did it.

Also, that's like,

that's the original, like, no consent there.

Poor guy.

Poor Joe.

I lost my virginity.

Joseph fell for that.

She's like, it was gone.

Poor guy.

And then they wrote it in a book?

Like, for every remembrance?

Yeah.

15 on her friend's couch?

Yeah, it wasn't great.

Yeah, it's terrible.

Yeah.

And then I fell in love with this girl, and then really happened, and I was like, wow, This is like it's like that scene in the 40-year-old virgin It's like bags of sand No, not that one the fucking dawn of Aquarius age of Aquarius

Aquarius.

Uh-huh.

You know what I'm talking about?

Yeah, yeah.

Are you having fun?

I'm chilling dude.

Okay.

That's a no.

Why?

I mean if somebody asks you why you funny stressed out right now.

You probably have what $20 million.

So you know my brand has made over 100 M's which is wild to think about and then you know you pay everybody out and there's a bunch of people in your pocket and commissions, and the government, and all this other shit.

So, you know, I'm sitting above what you just said, but it's nice.

Nice, dude.

It's nice.

You know what?

I really respect that because people beat around the bush with this crap.

I suppose.

But that's why I spent millions of dollars on this fucking movie because I wouldn't have been able to do it any other way.

Really?

Because you didn't put the dress.

The what?

The dress.

What cat?

The cat.

You didn't put it on the dress.

What?

That's what Cat Williams said in the other video.

Oh, yeah, I didn't put on the dress.

No, I guess not.

Let's talk real quick about,

yeah, having a number one hit single, right?

Yeah.

How many times did the 1-800 song go platinum?

Last I checked, I think it was like eight.

Did you ever worry that kids were like probably prank calling the hotline?

For sure, but I know that more...

people who needed help called.

You don't know that.

I do.

Congress wrote me a letter.

It could have been more pranks, though.

I'm not saying that people didn't get help.

That's obviously phenomenal.

But mathematically speaking, I'm bad.

For sure.

More pranks than the song.

What did Congress write you a letter?

What did they say?

They just

kind of were just like, hey, thanks for your song.

We've ran all the numbers and seen that this has definitely had an impact on.

Just all of Congress wrote it?

No, it was just like a.

They all signed it.

I got to find the letter.

They all signed it it like a like a I don't think every person signed it.

I just know these motherfuckers sent me a letter and said thanks, and I said thank you.

So who's like uh who's the most famous person you've ever met?

And maybe you could do like a wild-ass story.

Um, I don't know.

Who do I know?

Oh, Seth McFarlane?

Okay, so check it out.

Family guy one person, yeah.

So me and Seth McFarlane, I'm at his house.

It's like a fucking Lex Luther, like, it's insane.

Like this, this place is gigantic.

He's got like four stories.

He's got a fucking IMAX, like, 300, 500 fucking person movie theater.

And then he's got a nightclub in his house, like a lounge.

And, yeah.

And so me and him were working on this album that we're doing together where he sings 17 classic Sinatra and Krooner era songs.

And then I chop them on my NPC.

And then we're doing a whole album right now.

And so we're down there getting lit.

Okay.

It's not freak off, it's just us two.

So it's just like a two-off.

But there's no sex.

Doing drinking.

No, we're just drinking a little bit.

I'm sexing it.

No, but we're having a couple drinks.

Yeah.

But this is the night that he also on top.

So there's three people that convinced me to make a movie.

All right.

It's J.J.

Abrams, Seth McFarlane, and Kevin Smith.

And all three of those are my signatures that I needed three signatures to become a director through the Director's Guild.

And those are my three signatures, which is crazy.

Now, me and Seth are getting lit, and we're talking about everything.

We're talking about 90s cinema.

We're talking about fucking Soderbergh and Tarantino and Spike Lee and Jones and Sophia Coppola.

And then we're talking about Lawrence of Arabia and fucking Ben-Hur and Citizen Kane and Orson Welles and classic radio plays and all this other shit and he's just like how the hell do you know about all that kid

and I'm like I love it this is what I do you know what I mean like I love it so much and he's like well have you wanted to act have you ever wanted to you know make films and shit like this and this is the night when I was like like it began and I told him my story of how I'm sitting on scripts and I tried to make it but every corner in Hollywood is followed by no or hurry up and wait and he was like well well fuck that shit how much do you got and I said X amount and he goes well then take a couple you know however many millions it's gonna cost and go make a movie and I was like hell yeah Seth McFollins and I left his house crying in my Maybach

and I call I call my I call my wife

And she's like, what's wrong?

And I'm like, I'm going to make a movie.

And she's like, that's amazing.

What are you talking about?

And I'm like, I'm about to spend millions of dollars on this movie.

What if it doesn't work?

I always say when I go to to the gym, like,

I do curls well, like a Hasidic.

So I'm crying, and my wife is like, why are you crying?

And I'm like, because I'm about to spend millions and millions of our dollars to make a movie.

And she's like,

that sounds amazing.

Oh, it's ours.

It's ours.

She pushes.

You're staying in the gym, dude.

That's funny.

That's funny.

That's funny.

That's funny.

I made that money.

She made our children.

You know what I'm saying?

It's the hardest job, this is.

He's my Brittany.

I love you.

You're Kevin Federland?

You were married once before that?

I was.

Were you too young to be married?

You know what?

It's funny.

You could argue that.

I don't think I was too young,

but I was probably too young.

Yeah.

And at the end of the day,

that person just wasn't my person.

Not a bad person at this.

She wasn't your forever person.

People grow and change and we just changed differently and that's all it was.

It's not that deep.

We should get into the movie a little bit.

Please.

How do you feel now that it's out?

Are you getting a good result?

Well it's not technically out but it is

because it's

but the love I mean motherfuckers are calling it a fucking what is it a situational masterpiece in comedy fucking like season film instant comedy classic like I'm like this is crazy to me.

But it's funny to just watch people cringe at certain things or me talking about fucking getting molested or da da da and some people are like oh like or or might not think that's funny or like you probably shouldn't talk about that and I'm like eat my ass like what are are you talking about like i'm gonna i'm gonna talk about whatever i want but they were mean to you about saying that you no not they not they i'm just saying certain people i know have felt a little bit about the tone if i if i'm discussing those things or

you know just just stuff that can be very personal because it might be triggering to to to somebody which is completely understandable but this is still acting like that this is my story dude come on bro it's the way people are still telling you you can't you can't mention that you were molested because it's triggering for them oh it's a wild people are insane yeah

But I'm like.

People need to shut up.

I'm like, let me tell you.

Watch sports.

Anime.

Anime.

Or your anime or whatever.

Baby stuff.

So what's the second...

What's that?

What's LP2?

What's LP2?

It's your 8-mile.

It's your 8-mile.

No?

No, everything after this is going to be...

I think this specific film, it's a little more slapstick and whatever.

Like, from here, I want to make...

So there's two films that I'm going to do.

One is quite expensive but people want to give me money so that's great but

it's like a Spike Jones being John Malkovich meets Friday and vanilla sky like fucking each other at a freak off do you remember do you remember watching that movie as a kid and just being brokenhearted because you feel like you lost Penelope Cruz as your girlfriend she was so hot in that movie she's the most beautiful girl ever I dude that movie like Do you remember the Cameron Diaz line?

Which one?

There's many.

Right before she crashed.

Yeah, she's like, I let you, you came in my mouth.

I gave you something, and I swallowed your cum.

When you fuck someone, your body makes it promise.

You were inside of me.

That's a sample.

That's a sample.

Logic of a woman.

Thanks, guys.

That was great.

I had a lot of fun, David.

You enjoyed it?
