Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
But then you're thinking like that, that's like...
That's the curse of being successful though, right?
Like people lean on you.
I'm successful, but on my own terms.
Yeah, but that's still successful.
Yeah, but...
On your own terms is great.
Because, see, my shit was the music industry.
And the music industry is one of those type of situations where
you can be as creative as you want to be, but does that make you money?
You know?
So you have this whole fucking angel and double on your shoulder.
Make a hit song or be creative as you want to be.
Do what you want to do or do what you think is going to sell.
In my whole entire career, I just did what I wanted to do.
But at this point, after 10 years,
I sit back sometime and I think about like,
damn, did I make a mistake?
Because, you know,
there's still a lot of people in my family that struggle.
And it's like, fuck.
You know?
But if I just didn't care about being Danny Brown
and being so cool
and trying to make the most experimental music
I could possibly make,
fucking just don't give a fuck.
Make that fucking hit song.
But isn't that you though?
But I can do it.
You could do both.
That's the whole thing of what makes you a great artist.
See, like a person like Jay-Z.
He does both.
Does both.
Yeah.
I don't know if I can do both
because it's such a drastic,
it's such a drastic change from
what I love is underground music.
Yeah.
and what is commercially
and considered to be pop music
is such a drastic,
it's such a fucking,
you know what I'm saying?
I don't know if I can ever make it.
It's like,
with Patrice O'Neal.
Would he ever been to fucking like,
you know what I'm saying?
Commercial, like stand-up comedy.
You get what I'm saying?
Yeah, no, I think he would have been.
At this point in age?
Yeah, yeah.
We would have forced it through.
Yeah.
And that's,
he would have made it.
That's the one person that I look up to.
He was amazing.
So, I look up him so much.
And we,
everybody would have forced it through.
Like,
even if he couldn't get on a television show,
even if nothing ever happened for him like that,
we would have all had him on podcasts.
Because even with my rap career
and just how I look at,
like making music,
I look at him as like a super inspiration.
Like, it was,
my last album,
which was called,
you know what I'm saying?
Which is actually from Tom and Christina,
because they had this bit.
But they had this bit
where they had niggas,
and you know niggas be like,
you know what I'm saying?
Now, even me,
I say, you know what I'm saying,
like a lot,
like a motherfucker.
But before that,
the name of the album
was the Patrice O'Neill theory.
Oh.
Because Patrice O'Neill,
he had this theory
where he'd talk about like,
men has periods.
But we don't necessarily have periods.
We just want to fuck another bitch.
So every time you're mad at your girl,
like,
she's like all on you,
and she's like,
you're like,
you're like,
my woman is beautiful.
You know what I'm saying?
Like,
but you're like,
bitch,
you just want
another taste of something.
You get what I'm saying?
And when you get that,
like,
it's to the point where
if you've been so faithful
for so long,
you're like,
I'll fuck a homeless bitch
on the corner at this point.
You get what I'm saying?
But,
if I did,
it's going to make me love you
so much more.
Like,
I won't have this attitude,
this whole attitude I got
with you.
You think,
why are you so mad?
Why are you acting like this?
Because I need some new pussy.
And that's all it is.
But,
The Patrice O'Neil theory.
That's the Patrice O'Neil theory.
He had a lot of great theories.
But I would say,
listen,
I'm going to say this
because I love my girl at home.
I know she probably
listens to this.
I love you, baby.
But,
no,
I'm out of that.
I don't have that.
My dick don't get hurt
like that no more.
I'm 40 years old.
It's like,
come on,
this motherfucker's been burnt out.
They've been hitting this motherfucker.
Bitch,
been speed bagging this dick.
I've been getting,
this dick's been getting speed bagged.
for the last 10 years.
When did you decide
to do this podcast
that you're doing
with your mom's house?
Because it's hilarious.
No,
the thing was that,
oh,
you know Uncle Joey.
It started with,
he started?
You and him doing the podcast?
You want me to bring it?
Because it goes back
into me just being a rapper
and just me being on some rap shit
and I was on tour.
I was on tour
for a long part of time
and being on tour,
you get bored
and I'm a gamer
so I buy a lot of video games
and guess what?
I bought UFC
before the good UFCs.
This is a,
whatever UFC video game.
So I'm playing that
and you were the fucking
announcer on it.
So I'm playing that
and you're the announcer
on the album tour
and then I guess,
I don't know,
some type of way
I was watching UFC
of some shit
and then I seen you on there
and it was like,
oh,
this the nigga
from the video game.
is this not hilarious to you?
Like,
this is how I got up
on this whole shit.
So I'm like,
this the nigga
from the video game,
Joe Rogan.
So then I started
listening to Joe Rogan shit
and then from seeing
Joe Rogan shit,
I seen Uncle Joey on there.
Then I seen Uncle Joey
on there
and I seen that
and I just started
going through the fucking,
um,
the rabbit hole
of your shit.
Like even the shit
of fucking,
uh,
fucking Red Band dumbass
always talking about
fucking Olive Garden
and shit like that.
Like,
like the fucking,
Olive Garden and butthole.
Yeah,
like the Justin TV there.
Like,
I've,
so,
so I've been,
like,
I will credit you
to fucking up
my fucking music career
in some sense.
I will say that
because it got to the point
where all I did was,
all I ever did in my life
was listen to music.
Like,
I was one of those
people where I would like,
um,
be like,
man,
people don't really
listen to music.
They just listen to music
in their cars
or when they got
function or something.
I'm the type of person
that listens to music
24 seconds a day.
Whatever new,
whatever new.
But then I started
getting into podcasting
and listening to your shit
and doing that
and all that,
and all that.
So,
um,
just being into podcasting
and listening to y'all shit,
you know,
fucking Uncle Joey
and all that shit
and then I got into
why I made shit,
listening to their shit
and then,
uh,
you know,
just Tom hit me up,
like,
come through.
But when Tom hit me up,
he didn't know how much
of a fanboy I was
of the shit.
So when I came through,
I was hitting them
with all this shit,
you know,
all the fucking
why I made shit,
like,
you know,
straight real mommy shit.
You get what I'm saying?
Jeans.
Yeah,
so the jeans,
so that's what happened.
The jeans,
the whole,
the fan base of the whole shit
fucked with me.
They knew I was like
real in the shit,
so they embraced me
with that shit.
So Tom would always
hit me up and talk about,
he'd be like,
man,
because me and Tom
would like FaceTime
and like talk to each other.
Some real friend shit.
Ain't had nothing to do
with no business
or nothing else.
And Tom was like,
man,
you should do a podcast.
I'm telling you,
you'll be good at doing podcasts.
I'm glad he told you that.
But my whole shit
was with him
and I was like,
man,
no.
Being good at podcasts
is good,
but the actual production
of it,
which make podcasts good.
Because I can set up
a fucking camera
and a fucking microphone
in my bedroom
and start talking shit
in front of the camera,
but is that going to be good?
Yeah.
Danny,
it would be good.
But I was like,
no.
Listen,
all of it's good.
It just captures you.
It's nice to have
great production
and the way they do it
at your mom's house
is awesome.
You have like a real
professional studio.
I went over there
and visited.
It's beautiful.
The whole setup is beautiful.
But that's my whole shit.
I was like,
I'm not going to do it
unless it's like that.
But you can do it on FaceTime.
It doesn't matter.
I know.
It doesn't matter.
You're just good at it.
Because you're a fan
of podcasts for so long,
I think you're probably
talking back in your head.
Yeah,
like it got to be big.
It got to be like,
it got to look professional.
It can't be,
it can't be fucking pussy.
This is the double-edged sword
with that with me.
Because what I loved
about podcasting
was like,
I was almost like
a fly on the wall
against seeing like
friends just hanging out
drinking and talking shit.
Right.
And now when you watch podcasting
it's so fucking overproduced,
I heard that
these niggas
is writing scripts now.
No.
I swear I heard
some shit like that
where they said
these niggas got scripts
and they looking at them
on a Trello prompter
and they sitting there
and they sitting there
doing podcasts.
They doing scripted podcasts.
Podcasts are supposed to be
like you just a fly on the wall
sitting there in the room
with a couple friends
and you hearing them
talking shit
and you're like,
that's why we love
fucking Rogan so much.
You get what I'm saying?
Yeah.
In the beginning stages,
now,
this is some real shit.
Now,
you know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
But in the beginning stages
of the shit,
like no,
we're a fly on the wall.
But the point of
that that has turned
to what media
is in real life now
is it makes so much sense
when you got fucking
we went through reality TV
so much.
Now,
motherfuckers that play video games
watch other motherfuckers
that play video games
for fun.
You get what I'm saying?
Danny, I had a bit
a long time ago
about a cameraman
from a reality TV show
getting his own reality TV show.
So the reality TV show
was about a cameraman
following around
a cameraman
on a reality TV show.
And then I go,
but then people are going to go,
well,
what about the cameraman
behind the cameraman?
And then they're going to do
a cameraman show on that.
I would love to see,
me and my fucked up brain,
I would love to see that show,
but it had to be like
the niggas that shoot porn though.
I want to know about
the porn,
the porn cameramen.
Porn cameramen?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He a little creepy too.
He a little creepy.
How you get that job?
You just looking for it?
Because I feel like
cameraman is such a vast.
You, nigga,
you shooting for the NBA
or you shooting
for the motherfucking
anal projections.
What are you doing?
You get what I'm saying?
So you got to,
you picking your poison.
Yeah,
you could be a professional
and work for both.
I mean,
no,
at the end of the day,
what I will say
that's good about
the cameraman shit
is that
just like everything else
with DJing,
everything that comes
with the internet,
everything,
or even like
production equipment.
All this shit
has become so
easy to use.
Right.
But back in the day
it wasn't really like,
I couldn't go on YouTube
and find an instruction manual
to how to use an MPC.
You know,
Jamie's an audio engineer,
like a real audio engineer.
Who went to school for it?
Yeah, I did go to school
where there was no YouTube
for it.
And then,
like the year I graduated,
YouTube got invented.
How much of what you learned
in school is still valid?
It's hard to say
because a lot of,
there's even,
some of the computer programs,
they don't edit for you,
but they handle
a lot of the shit
that was difficult.
Oh, yeah?
You want to hear
the fucked up part
that I think about
is that it's better
in this sense
is because you get
a lot of different
point of views.
Like,
if I'm a nigga
that I'm trying to learn
some shit on YouTube,
it's a topic
that has a lot
of different people
that's talking about it,
I'm taking
the best parts
of,
or whatever
identifies with me
and like,
oh,
I'm figuring that shit out
and do that
like that
instead of just
learning from one person.
Yeah.
Oh, you know,
I just started,
I've joined a Muay Thai gym.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, man.
I suck.
Shouts out to all my boys
at fucking Ogre Muay Thai.
Shout out to my boy Spencer,
my boy Dave.
Chantel,
all them.
Yeah,
no,
I suck.
I actually suck.
That's okay.
Everybody sucks
in the beginning.
No,
I'm chilling out
right now.
I'm not,
I'll probably g
