A-Chopping with Desiigner. He got the whole China sweat. Timmy Turner, y'all know how we do it. Zombie Walk. Hey. No control. A-a-a-a lotta jabber. It's the real panda, right? Yeah.
Nah, this is swag. I ain't even gonna lie to you, dog. I just be in the crib, you know what I'm saying. This is better, right? What is it like a panda? Going on like my channel. Honey chilling. I want to say, "Hey, what is this better?" I got to go, "321," like crazy. I'm making my day.
Damn, son. Where'd you get that from? Tell me about Panda. So like, what you would you buy you bought the beat? Tell me what happened.
Man, with Panda, man, that was definitely like a situation. I was in the crib. My homie Ron Ron, you feel me, he was playing a song, playing the beat like, "Yo, hook this up now." So at the time, you know, everybody's doing music, I'm a big fan of music, just crazy. So they're like, "Yo, Desiigner." My name other Desiigner. My name is Sid the Kid. You feel me? When boy, you feel me? Cuz my real name's Sidney. You feel what I'm saying? So it was like, "Sid the Kid. I, I, yo, hook this up on me." They used to always call me for hooks. For hooks.
So your voice. So your voice, man.
And it was just crazy like it is. I said, "Two days. Give me two days, bro." I broke that thing up. I already had the feeling for the beat. I went on, going to my homie's crib, laid the hook. It was, I laid the hook in a party. It was a big party going on in his crib. It was so real. I had the buzz going crazy because everybody on the internet was already feenin' for it. You feel what I'm saying? Oh my God. Yeah, you did. I had it all over Facebook. I had the girl before Panda Dropped. It was already hot. It was already going on. It was already going on. It was already, yeah, bubbling up hot, man. You feel what I'm saying? Came up all for Facebook. You feel what I'm saying? I had the feature with Kanye, made it even bigger. I mean, but it was just crazy, man. It was just bubbling up straight from the streets, bro. Like it just came straight from the Instagram from there just like, crazy. I recorded it in a party.
What is Kanye like when you meet him in real life? I've seen him at parties. And he's mysterious, he just sits there. What's he like though in real life?
Ah, man, it's just crazy, man. Kanye, man, he's definitely a thinker, man. Definitely a meditator. You feel what I'm saying? He keeps to himself, and he watches. Like, I guess he watches from the outside looking in a lot. You know what I'm saying? And he hits the main points with his art, and he come in, and you know, and deliver when he hit, and he just makes sure he tells you what's going on and what he needs to deliver, you know what I'm saying? So I like, he's dope as hell, man. Kanye, bro, man, he's definitely taught me a lot. He definitely made me more of a man, I can say just being around him and just understanding more, you know, just made me better as a artist, so yeah.
Oh, goddamn, man. Yeah. And the masks are crazy. You're right. That's where it's at. Yeah, the mask is crazy. I just got to say a couple of these. What what are you doing for Halloween this year?
I don't know, bro. Oh, baby. Ball, baby. Ball, baby. Yeah, man. That do look crazy. That's scary. That's scary.
You got to come out on stage with something like that. Yeah, yeah, grandpa. Grabby grandpa. Yeah, things like this. So, Desiigner has a song called Zombie Walk. Zombie Walk. Hey, hey. Tell me about Zombie Walk.
Oh, yeah, Zombie Walk, man. Definitely, man. Shout out Zombie Walk, man. Shout out King Savage, man. I made that for my homie, man. He was disabled. It's about my homie who's disabled. And I wanted to, you know, just give him inspiration. You feel me? Give him like that, you know, that touch of life and make him feel like, you know, even though you walk like you a zombie, you did, I'm gonna make it say the Zombie Walk. And that's the Zombie Walk, and that's the swag. So I made the song Zombie Walk. We was in the crib. And it was crazy. It's perfect that we can bring it up though for Halloween. Heck yeah, you feel what I'm saying? Zombie Walk.
I've I've seen you bring Savage up on up on stage and put him on your shoulder.
