Everybody wants to go viral, wants to go viral, But
before all of this, we had radio. You know what
I'm saying, Yeah, you need to drink plate. That's why
I give a big shout to all the DJs.
Speaker 1 (04:51):

Be playing on the radio, you just feel a different
type of energy, a different type of love that you
can go outside and people like, yo, I hear you
on the radio. It's like a different type of connection, right,
you know, because anybody can go viral, anybody can't get
played on the radio.
