The Truth Hurts w/ Jeff Weiss, Rosecrans Vic and Free

Acerca de The Truth Hurts w/ Jeff Weiss, Rosecrans Vic and Free

The Truth Hurts is the antithesis to hip-hop podcasts dedicated to shameless clout-chasing and nihilistic exploitation. Instead of contrived drama and sinister gossip, the show seeks to chronicle the stories and lives of America's most compelling artists. It features journalists who've been embedded for years in the West Coast scene, but covers topics and personalities impacting popular culture at large. Each week, hosts Jeff Weiss, Rosecrans Vic & Free sit down at Pro Club in LA with musicians to break down their art, life and career from an honest, unflinching, music-first perspective.

Cash Cobain

Cash Cobain, the King of Sample Drill, joins Jeff Weiss & Mz.Free in LA for a conversation about his art and life on The Truth Hurts podcasts. Cash Cobain was born in the South Bronx, the same place as hip-hop. He grew up in the 50 Cent era, taught himself to make beats in FL Studio at age 9 and started recording songs when Pop Smoke was changing the face of New York. Now, his original sound defines the city. Inspired by Drake and Future, with a simplistic, minimalist spin, Cash Cobain says he makes songs because “I want people to dance and feel sexy.” He likes having a good time. Even the studio sessions are a party. His beats draw from whatever sample gives him that mood. He chops up everything and lets his label deal with the clearance formalities. He says, “I’m not emotional. Beats will make me cry, though.” He also claims “Everything in life is based on a woman,” and uses his lyrics to describe his encounters and desires with specific females. He breaks down his approach to writing about women, and how his lyrics could be misconstrued. Cash Cobain also tells the story of going to the studio with Justin Bieber to lay down his verse on “SWAG,” recording his hit song “fisherrr,” and working with Ice Spice and PinkPantheress. Make sure you watch to see exactly why he’s so afraid of aliens, and why someone in this podcast studio could, in fact, be a shapeshifter from another planet. 00:00 Intro 00:40 Upbringing in the South Bronx 1:30 50 Cent 2:37 His first beat pad 4:48 Sampling off Youtube 5:08 Household 7:00 South Carolina 9:50 Drake 11:20 Favorite producers & rappers 14:47 How he started producing 16:10 Jersey Club 17:12 I Wanna Rock 19:29 Transition to rapping 20:19 Cash Cobain name 21:14 2016 through popping off 23:00 Pop Smoke 25:10 Finding his style & rap inspiration 26:45 Women 31:43 SWAG with Justin Bieber 34:14 Navigating the industry 35:45 fisherrr 37:40 Ice Spice and PinkPantheress 38:45 Artists he imitated when he was young & becoming original 40:15 What inspires him 42:00 Sampling 45:03 Slizzy 46:06 Aliens 49:50 Famous woman face 52:42 New album 54:04 Lightning Round 👍 Make sure you hit that like and subscribe button and leave a comment letting us know what you thought about the show! 👍 📧 Email thetruthhurts@powmag.net for sponsorship opportunities. 📧 🎤 The Truth Hurts is hosted by Jeff Weiss, Rosecrans Vic, & Free 🎤 Follow The Truth Hurts on all Platforms Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetruthhurtspod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@truthhurtspodcast Twitter: https://x.com/Truth_Hurts_Pod Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BjMCTIiweZdCyT3DyseJt Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-truth-hurts-w-jeff-weiss-rosecrans-vic-and-free/id1813226752 #cashcobain #drake #future #50cent #popsmoke #nyc #newyork #drill #sample #rapper #la #hiphop #music #interview
