29m 20s
The artist discusses the origins and meaning behind their new project titled "Get Back or Die Trying," which was developed collaboratively within the team, with credit to a key contributor. The project is officially labeled an album, distinguishing it from mixtapes or EPs due to its depth and ambition in 2026. The artwork is a black-and-white photo, representing authenticity and minimalism, while the release date—August 6th—is tied personally to the artist’s birthday, seen as both a self-gift and a public offering. The artist reflects on their experience with Signal Records, noting a strong bond with a fellow artist, though no formal signing connection exists. Studio sessions with that artist are collaborative and creative, with several unreleased tracks in development. The artist identifies with drill music but rejects being labeled solely as a "drill rapper," emphasizing a broader identity as a "rapper." They express skepticism about the prevalence of fabricated lyrics in drill rap, estimating nearly 98% of music they hear is fabricated, and believe the genre needs greater accountability. On personal matters, the artist identifies as carefree, having transitioned from a more cautious mindset, and maintains minimal romantic involvement. They describe a strong preference for natural, petite women and reject the notion of BBLs as distinct or superior, stating they are just “pussy” and that they personally prefer natural features. The artist confirms no experience with BBL-related scams, financial transactions, or negative threesome outcomes, emphasizing a preference for authenticity and avoiding jealousy. They conclude by reinforcing their personal philosophy: to stay grounded, stay true, and keep moving forward without relying on external validation.
Can you explain to the audience everything they need to know about get back or die trying? And speaking of the title here was this a title that you came up with someone on the team came up with you or around you perhaps anybody in particular you want to shout out now when it comes to this project what do you refer to it as I know some call a project an album some call it a mixtape some go a little shorter like an EP I know this isn't and why go the album route this second go round for you and you know just in case those in the audience are a little confused here is there a difference between an album in a mixtape in 2026 yeah yeah I don't really know the difference but yeah it's definitely different though it's a lot easier now you already explained the meaning and the title here but what about the artwork as well are you able explain the artwork this black and white photo and maybe if there's a meaning to the color or so on and so forth and what about the release date it is set to release on August 6th any significance behind that date there it's my birthday so almost like a gift to yourself or a gift to the world or how do you look at it now as much press and media coverage that you've done thus far are there any unknown facts or stories in regards to this project that's never been mentioned yet just curious there all right well let's dive into some further aspects here in regards to Q50 okay all right now I do want to ask you this okay now associated with this project is a record label that you're signed to which is signal records what's it really like being a part of that imprint and who do you have the closest bond with on that imprint and by closest this could be someone in front of the scenes like you like another recording artist on the label or maybe someone behind the scenes like an executive of some sort I will look at the artist and they know pay signs on that's my boy and she knows I'll look at the administration driven by me and I'll look at them who do you have the closest out of all these names though closest bond with you personally she had an album hard to me know and did you have a bond with him prior to signing or was it the signing that got you to closer together now did he have anything to do with maybe you signing to this imprint like the fact that he was a part of it already or just curious there and you know when it comes to Nino what's it like when you two are in the studio together what's a studio session like between you two and how many songs do you have unreleased at this point of just you two and what are the plans with those two songs or maybe even some future studio sessions here are there any plans with these two songs in particular that are unreleased or has there ever been talk of maybe a project of just you two together just curious there all right well a few more questions here for you Q we're just going to move around different topics here I did want to ask you a few of these questions as well all right okay now at this point when it comes to your music what genre of music do you consider yourself and does it get any deeper than that like maybe a sub genre under drill perhaps now what is your opinion of that phrase drill rapper are you referred to as a drill rapper I know you do that type of music but do people consider you a drill rapper do they put you in lists like drill rapper top 10 top so on and so forth yeah what is your opinion of that phrase people referring to you as a drill rapper now if we take the word drill out of that equation but just the phrase rapper itself what's it really like having that type of career being a rapper and speaking of this fast life what's been the most challenging aspect of being a rapper so far for you one to keep good and for you what keeps you in the money and I'm just like I fuck with those cool I came up on supporters then and speaking of your supporters as well I know sometimes that can get a little bit deeper as well as far as names like sometimes recording artists have a name they call their supporters instead of just the phrase supporters sometimes you know their supporters have a name they call themselves do you have a name for this group of yours now in your opinion what makes a great rapper and just for context how long have you been doing this for this career patch you're two years now you've made two years and within these two years how do you feel so far with your journey it's cool do you feel like you should be bigger than than where you currently are do you feel like I feel like everything that's coming to me the thing I'm going now I'm supposed to be doing all so like do you feel underrated at all now everything okay just curious there now what about this as well in your opinion from what you've experienced what's the biggest mistake drill rappers make now do you listen to others music aside from yourself okay you know I'm sure there's recording artists you know of personally that you listen to their music assuming maybe there's some recording artists you don't know them personally but you listen to their music as well in that case if there's recording artists that you don't know personally their background so on and so forth but you listen to their music are you able to tell by just listening to the lyrics their cadence so on and so forth whether they're fabricating or not you know they give it up they so so let me ask you this from music that you heard you don't know them personally but you just listen to their music if there was a circle chart a hundred percent right what percentage are fabricating from what you've heard 90 percent 98 why don't you think this is called out more baby by fans or listeners or how do you feel about the the drill rap game at this point in 2026 it should cool baby send it should get out
I don't know, but I was there. Kidnapping can never get a little anxiety. - And last question here, on this subject matter, can you name five things? Rapper should leave behind in 2026, moving forward to 2027. - I'll try. Lie. I said, I didn't already, I already paid, like I already began to flugging up I else doing, you know what I'm saying? I don't get enough fuck to rely on that. I feel like I should leave that shit behind. That's a workout for you, you should keep doing it, keep doing it, get you rich. - Okay, I do want to talk about Chicago a little bit further. What does Q50 mean to Chicago at this point? - I don't really get enough for what I mean to people. I was there. I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was there. I was there. I was there. I was there. I was there. I was there. - This carefree attitude that you have, have you always had this attitude, or maybe there was a time when you did care before you transitioned into this carefree mentality? - No, I mean, I was, I was, I was always been like, designer, you get enough fuck. You know, I don't always say I get enough fuck. - Is there anything in life you do care about? And is there an order between those two? - No, no, no, no. - No, we, you said, like, do I rank it? - Yeah, is there a ranking between those two? - No, a few follow-up questions on Chicago, okay. What is Chicago known for food-wise at this point? - Time be, should like the subs, like the subs, you know, now the subs, you know what I'm saying? Should like that. - Do you indulge in any of these food items yourself? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's, that's all I eat is chicken. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - And the reason why I bring all this up is because if you did have a chance to try it, wanted to see if there was a difference between what you're used to ordering and getting in Chicago, if there was a different taste, different in the taste and the food and so on and so forth, like even the mild sauce. I wanted to know if maybe it was a little different in Atlanta, the Atlanta version compared to what you've experienced in Chicago, so maybe I'll save that for next time, excuse me. But I do want to ask you this as well. When it comes to Chicago, my last question, wish Chicago, okay? If there was a Mount Rushmore of Chicago rappers, which four people would you pick and why? - Let's go on the ledger. And why each of these four for you personally? - I should have done the greatest show. - Just curious there. And when it comes to you here, few more topics for you. And then we'll be done. One to sidestep with this set of questions as well. Let me know when you're ready. Okay, I want to bring up something we talked about last time and dive a little bit deeper with that, okay. Now last time I had the opportunity to interview you, you put out there your personal interest for Glorilla, who's taken at this point. Yes, yes, yes. But is there anybody else you have your eyes set on at this point? - Still Glorilla. - Still Glorilla. - Damn, who else I want to bust? Oh no, folks, I'll be bricking shit whether I shoot or not, I hit it, I don't know if it's really probably going to look like I shot it on this earth or any hit. - And why her of all the females out here? - She's gonna look at it, she's gonna list on you, okay, figure this shit out real quick. So let's back up here and ask you a few more questions when it comes to the subject of females. Is there a difference between Midwest girls and city girls? - What do you mean, I so what do you call city girls, I guess that's, it's just any city girl, how would you compare Midwest, okay, I didn't know if you looked at it any different. Like maybe outside the city, now I shit, I ain't got a whole, a whole who don't be fronted in city and shit be knowing how to do more, like, you know what I'm saying, they know how to do it, you know what I'm saying, oh, they still some hustles, you know what I'm saying. - And when you say do more, are you talking about like just, you know what I'm like, they know how to do more, like, you might meet a bitch, you might meet a country bitch, not a build house, yeah, you know I'm saying, like, you might country girls, like, they like the country you know I'm saying, they like getting down, they're city girls, you know what I'm saying, they care about shit, you know what I'm saying, they care about a lot of shit that they, I mean, look at, oh no, you know what I'm saying. - Now do you have a personal preference between the two? - City girls. And what about this slight twist, different little difference here though, is there a difference between a baddie and a beautiful woman? - Yeah, no, because a beautiful house, a bell, animals, a bad shit, as light as in it, is it a difference between soccer and football, same shit, they got the same name, you know what I'm saying, and that's a relative question, there's different viewpoints on that subject matter and you just shared yours, or some that definitely agree with you. But when it comes to females, how do you operate? So if there was a circle chart of 100%, what percentage are you shooting your shot versus letting a female choose you and maybe shoot a you, so to speak? - I ain't gonna learn, I can't really answer it, but because like I, I'm like, I would, would, would, would lifestyle a little, I probably, I probably shoot at a bitch that been trying to talk to me, but I'd never see it because my Instagram, you know what I'm saying? So like, you know what I'm saying, so, that being said, but I shoot at 100% of these hooves, I don't know, but, I mean 100% that do on me, you know what I'm talking about too, I'm easy. I'm easy, you know, saying my game, shoot at it. - And how does Q50 do it? How does he shoot his shot? - Should've probably a bitch like her pictures, slide her, you know, or we're in a public, I've seen some shots, so I like, I want my manager, I want his somewhere out of life, where he go, get that bitch, never come. You know, I go, get the bitch, never come. I like that way. - Now why that method there? - That's the word for me, shit. I was there. - Now when it comes to females as well, at this point in your life, what is your real life? What is your relationship status?
single taken complicated word. All right, well, we'll just keep it right there. Then, but let me ask you this because you mentioned Instagram here, right? Just in case there's some fraudulent profiles out there, some scammy profiles, some spammy profiles. What is your official handle on Instagram just so people know, this is the real you bloody brother. Now, you had a previous page or maybe two previous pages. I want to talk about that, my sugar took a piss about that. You already know having a man trying to get money. We got Instagram number. I don't personally know. Well, fuck with me out there. I got Instagram number, come on, come through for it. And then I come through for it. Like I'm through for me one time. Now wrapping up the subject about females, one more subject matter for you to give us an answer on. When it comes to females, what is your opinion on BBLs? I'll fuck with them. Yeah, I don't got it. No, I'll discriminate. I was saying, BBL pussy is the same pussy. It's regular pussy. I was saying it's pussy. Pussy is pussy. Pussy. Have you ever had both at the same time? So BBL and BBL? How many threesomes have you experienced? So far, I think I'm on my day. I'm on my own every day on the I get. I kind of both hands probably more than that. And I'm saying I probably I probably got it. I kind of both hands on. I can't really, you know what I'm saying already. I don't really like it's it's true. Sometimes I look at my phone like damn, I forgot I hit them. Shit like that. You know what I'm saying might be on. So you know what I'm saying? I have a lot of threesomes like on some one night. I should like, I just made them, I'm at these two holes outside went to go fucking both and I don't need them, you know, they don't know how to reach them. I don't know how to reach out to them. Now, when it comes to threesomes, what are the best threesomes that you've experienced so far? Let me set up the question. There's some it's random. It's spontaneous. They get two females together. Hey, are you down to do this? And it and it happens, right? Then there's some that are planned. It's like planned in advance. Hey, you find this person? Oh, I liked this person. Y'all get together and we'll schedule this date or time. Which are the best spontaneous or planned? I like playing because if I tell the best bring a friend, she bring the best. She got chemistry with knows that. So I want, I know probably making these holes, but not making it. And we were phrased that I don't, I don't, I know probably what's on these holes to do something to each other because that's in it. Probably did already. Now for those in the audience that have never had a threesome yet, what's that really like? So I can get better and have a two plus just the same time. Now, sometimes we've seen headlines of three sums that don't go according to plan, right? Sometimes fighting between two females. Sometimes there's jealousy between the female and the male. Maybe the male showing a little bit more favoritism towards the other has a threesome ever ended up horrible for you. Have you had a horror experience or a horror story with threesomes or? Yeah, no, because I'm fucking with a female. I don't know how to have a threesome, but I will. I don't really have no threesomes or a female. I really like to have fucking with because I don't want that to happen. You know, I don't want that specific shit to happen. And I ain't never had no problem with too well. You know what I mean? Other male holes. Other animals, fuck a bitch. They said they had no fuck like they best wearing this shit. They're making up do something together. They said they had no do shit together. I ain't making like I keep saying. I ain't making up like you shit. Now, any rules when it comes to three sums? Yeah, I know. I just, you know, yeah, not just as long, I guess for you. As it doesn't involve a significant other someone you're locked in. No, no, no, no, no. They're in a rule. I'm saying that's what I choose not to do. I do it, but I choose not to buy this up to me. I'm not, but that's what that's what female. I do that. And for you, is that from a bad experience that you? I just don't want jealousy to have, all my best to make me sing, I don't put another bit more. Now, let's rewind back to the original topic at hand, which was BBLs. Just a few follow-up questions there. There's not 30 minutes. All right, back on. Can you spot the difference between BBL and no BBL as many females as you've experienced? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the hint? And even at its best work, you're able to still spot it. Not as best work, yesterday it was as hard to spot one, but it'd be the sense that that's going to be matching. I should like to, you know what I'm saying, but if that's the match, then there is an over big dumb ass fact. I ain't going to get a problem, I don't have a thing. Now, be that as it may. Have you been fooled before? Thought a female had a BBL? Nah, yeah, man. You've been spot on every time so far. Nah, I ain't never really like it. Like, I ain't just, Dan, she got BBL, Dan, she don't, I ain't never like that. I'm shit, I'm gonna put it back down. It's very, I don't wanna put it away, I don't wanna be on it. Now, what about this as well? This is a trending topic in the BBL world. One to see if you experienced this at all. A BBL smell. Is that true or false? The internet is going crazy with this topic. I hope I'll never experience that. Okay, so that's a no, a never so far for you. And winding down the questions here about BBL's, have you ever been asked to pay for one? Sponsor a BBL for someone. How they offered? Have they taken it? When I only be my own and make a few nails here, like, down about it, so, but like, obviously, I don't plan shit to see if they hear it. But it sounds like no takers. No, no, no, that, of course, they didn't accept it, you know what I'm saying? Of course, but no, I definitely, I was saying, I like saying it like, so I said I was planning shit, so the thing that I don't, for like, I'm trying to less than, we're less than where we're trying to down somebody. Body shame? A little, a little. Okay, well, aside from your personal opinion of BBL's on females, right? Generally speaking here, because there's females in the audience watching this and wondering, do males really like this stuff? What do you think it's like? But, you know, just from locker room talking. Fuck what it done, yeah, it's cool. And zooming out, just for clarification, last question here. What is your personal preference? I know you're okay with BBL's, but do you personally prefer a BBL or no BBL? I like natural. I like a little skinny, pretty petite shit. Anything else you want to mention about BBL's here? Or females or question you weren't asked, people want to know about any of these subjects? And for those in the audience, share that album title once again. You get back at that time. Now, ask you a lot of questions here, just to tie everything up in a bow. Is there anything else with the conversation we had? Anything else you want to add on to what you said for context? Maybe subtract, retract from what we said during this interview. And before you leave here, any last words? Give back a doubt, try all the suits. [BLANK_AUDIO]
