Episode 10: “FREAKY STYLE” feat. DJ Smokey *FULL EPISODE ON PATREON*

Fuck with Boratalia. Eh? Perfect. That's probably a good place to leave it.

No jumper. Coolest podcast in the world. Hell yeah. What's up? My name is Adam22. There's a pile of comatose teenagers around. DJ Smokey is basically debilitated off a new type of prescription drug. I'm off like eight perks. He's off like eight perks. He's tweaking. He's fully dilated. And like some other research chemicals you didn't even want to know about. Yeah, you've been conducting some research of your own recently. Yeah. I've been looking into like... Poisons, you know, like the best type that I could sell to like Monsanto and all that. Monsanto, they're actually like low-key funding us. Yeah. Shout out to them. Shout out to them. You have a new little, I mean. Are we live right now? Yeah, we're live right now. We're in, we're in. I'll bet, bet, bet. We got like six million. Oh, we got six million? Six million on live. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yo, it's good. I'm out here. Where are you out exactly? Can you describe your surroundings and maybe the city you're in? Can I describe where I'm at right now? What city would you say that you're in by your bearings? I'm in like London, I guess. It's like mad big. This guy is so high off all manner of research chemicals, but yeah, you've actually got that right. Too many. What are your impressions? I fuck with London. I mean, it's so large, it's hard to, like, you know, get into the, like, understand where I'm at. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I fuck with it, though. I like the people out here. Everyone's been kind. It's a big place, you know? Well, thank all that happened to you. And I see my authentic Cockney sort of accent. Yeah. Because you're half Indian. You're claiming Zadik Khan right now. Only geezers. Only geezers allowed on this podcast. I mean, you're singing our praises, but there was a little bit of London shit talk happening off mic earlier, specifically regarding the size of Buckingham Palace. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, I thought it'd be bigger.

And more evil. From what I've heard. I think if they colonized it would be like 30% harder. It would probably pass the cutoff point for acceptably big. They pulled the plug a couple soon. And I've been saying this. Care to co-sign? A couple more stories. I don't know. That shit wasn't evil enough for me. Because I'm like bare evil, you know? Like I'm like dumb evil. Do Americans say bear? Or have you picked up? Canadians say that shit. Canadians. North Americans. I think you guys prefer. Bear. Bear evil. Oh, bear. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, bear. Like grizzly? Bear and stern. It's like bear, like stinky. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought that was an English thing. What the hell? And I take a shower and brush my teeth. You just got to live a stinky life. I'm good. I'm less stinky. Can I just say, I did, when we said hello, I made sure to cop a hot... Not a... You're smelling good. Wait, what? Me? Yeah. I smell okay? You smell delightful. Thank you. You got a little burberryed aftertaste. I appreciate it. You went to the burberry store. Usually I do stink a little bit. Yeah? Care to comment things? Tell them. He fucking stinks. That's the stank. That's the stank. I'm like, I'm like against showers for the most part. He's kind of like a cat. It's like, it's like, like showers. It's like, it's like Monday, Wednesday, Saturday shower days, you know? What about if you're going out on Friday? Stinking. Running up a stank. Yeah, yeah, yeah. DJ Stinky. That's what they should call you. Friday's the worst day to catch me, honestly. Yeah, you got two days must. Friday, bro. Yeah, I mean, yeah. That's why everyone was having to leave the booth at MOT. The smell was too damn strong. You knew that place, man. No doubt. I belong there.

Shit, don't get too close. That's my second home. The MOT Trooper. How did you feel about this show? It was vibes. I don't know. Like, so basically, like, I kept telling Pitch, like, I was like, I was like, I'm not going to drink too much tonight. I'm going to do my set. But, like, I didn't realize, like, I've never done a set at 3 a.m. I mean, that's, like, mad late for me. So I'm like waiting around all night. So I kept getting like drinking, you know, drinking, drinking, drinking. So by the time my sack came around, I was fucked up and I was like mad drunk. So apparently it went well. People told me it was good. Have you seen the videos of it? It was crazy. I've seen some videos. You've seen the one of you coming up with Smokey Ray Cyrus? Yeah, I still, I pulled it off. Yeah, dude. You look like you're having the time of your life. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. By your mouth. Apparently it went well. Hell yeah. But I was pretty fucked up by that point. Dude, you were doing, like, body shots off of... Who was it? Like, Mad Horse and shit? Just Mad Horse, yeah. Let's not be specific. You were taking, like, Sambuca Enemas. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And this was, like, before 12. I kind of remember that. You kind of remember that? The sting. It's the sting, right? distinct memory if you had a just stinky ass memory if stinky memory if what if what you said is stinky memory you were kind of i feel like almost every set prior to yours qualifies as back to back because you were doing like hella tags you're doing hella drops and like i pulled up the tags early i was like hey run it if you want a tag go for it have fun I felt like no one had the timing like you did, though. My timing's pretty good with the tags. Crazy. Yeah, a seasoned tagster. I know it hit a tag. I know the best spot. The tag G spot. Right there. But you said, because you weren't on the decks. So you weren't like DJing DJ. Or what was it? How are you going about it? I'm not a DJ, bro. That's confusing.

It is. I know, it's in my name. I'm not DJ, I make music. So I've heard. Can you describe it? I make music, but like, I will DJ, but like, I'm not a DJ. What made you settle on the net? No, I made that name, that's like 10 years old, can you know what I mean? Yeah. So if you could come back with a new name now, what would you go for? Shit, right now? How about DJ Smokey? I'd be like Glossama Bin Laden. That'd be my new name. That was actually going to be my second guess. I took my shit from like DJ Paul, DJ Screw. Like all my favorite artists were DJs, I guess. Someone was saying you're a, I think it was Rob was saying you're a Funkadelic head. Oh, I fucked, yeah, big time. Like George Clinton. Yeah. What band music, if any, do you listen to? Band music? Like a band? I don't mean like the ISIS theme song. I mean like guitars and drums and bass. A lot. Like insane amount. I don't know. I like Funkadelic. I like George Clinton. All that shit. Like my favorite rock band. Like Queens of the Stone Age. Tell ya. Yeah. A lot of old chili peppers. There's, like, tons of stuff. It's hard to, like... There's a lot of shit. Primus. I love Primus. The Melvins. I was wearing a Melvin shirt yesterday until I got too stinky. Yeah, I fuck with the Melvins hard. I like, like, really slow stoner rock to the point where it's, like, way too slow. And it's, like, annoying, you know? Like, I like music that's just, like... I definitely am into, like, slow shit. Even though it doesn't sound like it right now, but I like slow music. But shit, it sounds like a groove. Yeah. But that's why, like, that's, like, the best, like... That's why I like, like, Stoner Rock. Yeah. Like, Melvin's, it was, like, Black Sabbath worship. But it's heavier and, like, groovier. It was, like, that, but also, like, even slower. Yeah. You know what I mean? Some of this stuff is, like, genuinely so, like, punishingly... Where the song's, like, 10 minutes long, but it's, like...

You have to, like, you know what I mean? There's, like, four chords. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It sounds like, like, glaciers melting type shit. Stinky-ass toxic glaciers. Yeah. What's, um, it's, the last couple episodes, we've been, the Red Up to the Peppers have come, they're kind of like a recurring motif. Yeah. What's, like, your go-to peppers? What's, like, in your personal pantheon, like, what's the best Peppers? My go-to what? What's the best? What's, like, what are your sort of, like, life-defining Peppers songs? Chili Peppers? Yeah. Like, Freaky Styly. Oh, shit. I don't know, Freaky Styly, the song off that tape is amazing. You're, like, OG Peppers, like, pre-breakthrough. Yeah, I'm OG Peppers. Yeah, like, old, old. When they were kind of, like, when they were even, like, when they were super zany. I went to Blood Sugar Sex Magic and I didn't listen to us out. Like Freaky Style-y, I'd say. Blood Sugar Sex Magic is my go-to. It's a great album. It's the best. It's the best. And I'll continue to affirm that at every single... This podcast is ultimately about me saying that I think Blood Sugar Sex Magic is good. Freaky Style-y, though. That's a great song. I don't think I've... I must have heard it at some point, but can you give us a little rendition? How's that go? The bass line is nasty. He's just like... That's just crazy. You should know that if you're asking that question. I should. This is also... You're the one asking me. Bro, this podcast is poser-themed. This is a poser-ass-themed podcast. Alright, let me prove myself as a sort of investigative journalist. You're in a band in high school called The Social Workers. Bro. Bro, how'd you know that, bro? Wait, wait, wait. How do you know that? That's crazy. How do you know that? That's insane. The smoky... That's going wild. The smoky soy face exclusive. This man did his research. This man did his research. DJ Soyface. Okay, okay. Tell us about the social workers, man. Tell us about the social workers. You're DJ Smoker. We have to know. Basically, we were like... We were like a Chili Peppers ripoff band. And then they wanted to do more like...

indie strokes vibes and I quit the band. It was like too gay for me. It got too gay. I don't mean that in a fucked up way, but like, yeah, I wasn't rocking with it. So I cut. There's too much gay indie for sure. So you don't fuck with any indie? I mean, I like Sonic Youth. I like that kind of era. I'm not a big indie guy. So you never rocked, like, super tight jeans and a leather jacket? Me? Bro, if I was wearing tight jeans, I'd be a piece of paper. You know how skinny it is? I'd be see-through. I'd turn sideways and I don't want to see you, you know what I mean? No, no, no, no. Nah, that's not me, that's not me. What's the bod saying, man? Like, how symmetrical are your nipples? My nipples? Yeah. I got tiny nipples. Oh, dude, I'm so jealous. Like, very short. You know, right? Oh, my God. They're fucking Vinnie school. Yeah. Some tiny ass nipples. You got burger nips. Dude, they touch my shoulder blades. You actually, yeah. No. They kind of come up onto your neck a bit. Let me see. Let me see. No, they're pretty normal. I want to see them. I want to see. You can barely see them just get a show up for the six million all you want you want to show my Nipper reveal I don't go look yeah, you've we've with always find ways to compensate. There's always, there's always a way outside of nipplessness. Yeah. Um, I've kind of let them, I've come to let them define me. If you have monstrous sort of plate nipples, it's easy to sort of like become complacent and let that become the thing that you're about. Other people have to find other avenues. That becomes your whole personality. Exactly. You, you have to forge yourself to become the, the new God. I just kind of like sat back and nipped my way up to the, up the top. Bro, your head's big. I get it. I get it. It does, it does balance.

So singer Billie Eilish appears to be the bad guy. Singer Billie Eilish appears to be the... I have a question. I have a question. That's a good question. I want to hear it. Singer Billie Eilish appears to be the quote unquote bad guy in social media's eyes after losing more than 100,000 followers on Instagram since she quote came out and discussed her sexuality on the red carpet. She came out as what? As a... We'll find out. Are they them or some shit? Didn't she say she could go trans? It seems fun. Did she say that? Yeah. She trivialized transness. She trivialized transness? Well, that's a side action. We'll get into that. She came out as just sort of like broadly, just generically queer, I guess. This seems pertinent because you wore an I Love Gays t-shirt in London recently, where you are right now. Coincidence? Yeah. Yeah, I love gays. Is that the answer? I don't really know what I'm asking, man. I have no idea. That question is retarded. Singer Billie Eilish appears to be the bad guy in social media's eyes. This is a direct quote from the Daily Mail. I thought using the bad guy. Are you asking it again? I am, yeah. What's your answer this time? What's your stance this time? My stance is... She's probably right or wrong. I don't know. One of the two. True, true, true. How was it you linked to Tech Linta? Tech is my guy. I love Tech. Tech's a great man. That's a legend right there. Straight up. Super fucking talented individual. And he's like mad cute. And I want to give him hugs every time I see him. He looks like a teddy bear. Pinch his cheek. Kissable guy. Yeah. No homo, but I love that guy. I mean, completely and uncompromisingly homo on my end, but you speak for yourself. Yeah. You said that, not me. In your words. In my words. Oh, okay. In his, your words, my words. You guys are on some like... Both are words, honestly. You guys are on some Dance Dance Revolution. Yeah, yeah. He rips DDR. Yeah?

Yeah. He's got, cause I didn't, the clip wasn't long enough. He was snapping. Yeah. But he, he said he needs to practice more. I know. Cause like I got my boy back home, like ribs DVR. Like he's got a mat in his crib. You know what I mean? It was like, like, like dancing, like type shit. Like tech's pretty good. I've seen better. Tech's good. So I'll give him that. Tech's good at music though. She, she's a noob. No, you were dancing with Ty. I thought I ate. Yeah, but you were on, like, the easiest mode. Ty's, like, on, like, expert mode. Fugue? No, I'm not trying to be... Wait, can you, like, choose your song on DDR, like Guitar Hero? What's the go-to? What are you going? No Clarity. Oh, that song's so... It's the best I spy song. Yeah, yeah. Chase it relentlessly. It is. Oh, well, I mean, I don't know. And a deck you're watching, which you probably aren't ever in a million years. You're mad cool and cute. No homo. I like briefly. I kind of like was like, you should hop on the podcast. And he was like. That sounds really scary, and it sounds unlikely. I'd rather just play TNL. You're a little extroverted TNL. Is it? A little bit. Extroverted or introverted? I mean, opposite of what I just said. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, introverted. Epic winterverted. I meant introverted. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Was that the first time you guys met IRL? No, no, I came to Montreal. Met in Montreal. He's from, like, Arizona, right? Yeah. i think so no no he's from arizona and he went to like rhode island with the guys and the guys being like they're in all that yeah what do you guys do did you like go skiing stuff like that in montreal yeah yeah nah i i we the show yeah hard hitting real gotcha when did you first like like come into contacts

How did the shed sort of crossover begin? That's a cool question. It's like... So, do you guys know the lore about me? It's like I used to do the funk shit, right? Yeah. I've been on your shit for the last decade. In some ways, I made you. You made me? I believe it. But, yeah, so... In like 2018, 2019, I took like a two-year hiatus from like making music or anything. And then I'm always like a nerd with the internet and looking at new artists and shit, you know what I mean? So I saw Bic and Joey like back in the day. Get a little bit closer. Am I good? I'm not close enough. That's good. Can you still hear me though? Yeah, that's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So I saw the guys and what they were doing, and I don't know, I just started talking to Bic and Joey and da-da-da. Shout out Big Flame. Yeah. I fucked with Big Flame. That's my boy. And I don't know, I just kept talking to them, and it was all 2019, 2020, and I was like, let's make something, let's make something, let's make something, and then... The nuke thing came around, the nuke radio shit. And I bought a bunch of, like, I got a bunch of tags for it, and I was like, I need somewhere to, like, premiere these tags that I got. And Joey had fucking Just Tired, so we just ran it together. It was, like, good timing, you know? Sorry, you Just What? Joey Just What? Joey, like, had the tape Just Tired. Oh, okay, okay. Like, finished, and I kept telling him, like, I want to host a tape for you. I want to host a tape for you. and then i like finally had the right thing to host the tape for so i was like let's run it and that's basically how it happened it's just like good timing yeah yeah i mean it's it's hard to like describe how it all came together but so that's basically what happened the nuke thing if i'm not was that i it's like shaq france or something kind of had the initial my boy shaq and uh coach came up with like the

the idea of it it was just like nuked music you know and what they what they did they they dropped like one mix on like soundcloud it was just like a bunch of detroit music like sped up and just like extremely nuked you know i mean just like well you know i mean there's sets of well yeah yeah so i was like that's hard i was like i fuck with the concept because i i've always worked good with concepts it's like an idea and then you build off it So I was like, can I take that and make it into something? And they blessed me. So I was like, okay, I'm gonna run it then. And that's where it started. I feel like the concept stuff also like stretches back really early. Of course. Yeah. Like whether it's like positive squads, which is, I mean, more of like a ethos, I guess, than like a concept. Yeah. But I've always had like a really, I mean. I guess like in your origins, you kind of like came up with a lot of other, I guess people who are like broadly categorized like funk guys. Yeah. Whether it's like Sudier or like DJ Young Vamp or whoever else. Yeah. But as much as I like, I love those guys. And the music was like really big for me at the time in particular. Like your stuff had like a bit more of like a defined sort of like persona to it. You know what I mean? Which I think is like crystallized a bit more intensely in the time since. Yeah, because, like, I always wanted, like, sorry, I always wanted, like, a lore around me, you know what I mean? Yeah, the lore secret himself. Like, I want, like, a movie going on around me, like, just, like, a fucking, it's not just, like, you, like, in music, you make your own movie, you make your own fucking, like, it doesn't need to just be music, like, you could, you know what I mean? Hey. I might not be saying anything, but I you know I'm saying there's like a really strong narrative to your music and like the Tags and everything you get made for it is like yeah makes it so much more exciting than anyone else's shit, right? It's like visual It's basically is more like I just want lore like I want I need I need a concept before I can make the music like I need something to build the music around So is that what defines like you had this new idea? That's why

I mean, it seems obvious how I'm saying it, but that's why you've got all the bomb explosions. That's why you've got everything related to it. Yeah, of course. Helps to add it all in, yeah. Yeah. That's why I said it seems obvious. Is the Lore Seeker cover with your tape with Baby Goyard, is that just to clarify for you? Yeah. Is it partly AI generated? Like the official cover? No, no. Is it not? Really? Who did it? No, no. The first cover was AI generated, but it was shit. So we got another guy to do it. And he just bodied it. That cover is good. I forget his name, but he's part of like a... Fuck, I don't know. I forget the name right now, but they have a whole thing. Oh, Skag. Yeah, the Skag guys are hard. How do you spell that? S-C-A-G. And they made like super hard art. Skag, you guys are doing great work. So the nuke stuff was originated by Shaq France and who else was it? Coach. Coach Vic. That name doesn't ring, but who's Coach Vic? He's just like a Montreal goat. He's just like a dude. He's a man. He's been around, though. Like, I've been doing shows in Montreal for, like, 10 years. Like, my first show, I met Coach. Like, Coach was, like, tight with Yams, like, ASAP Yams. Like, Coach is, like, a culture guy. Like, he's, like, hip with the underground. Like, Coach was, like, super tight with Yams. And, like, every time Yams would come to fucking Montreal, Coach would, like, put him on shit. So, you, I mean, Yams really fucked with you, like, quite early on, is my understanding. And, like, also as I understand, like, there's a lot of things that I understand. I'm going to be detailing only some of them. But of what I understand, I want to, like, I know that he was trying to, like, link you and, like, ASAP Mob, like, right at the point probably of them, like, blowing up. And then he sadly passed away. What was the, what were your kind of, like, dealings like at the time? Um, I don't know. Yams was, like, fire, bro.

Sorry, could you just put the mic up? Yeah, yeah. It's all good. Wait, what is it? Let's give him, like, a pillow or something to, like, rest his, like, elbow. No, I'm good. I'm good. Don't worry. Yeah. Yams is super fire. A pillow. Oh, a pillow. I like the Quaalude pillow, but do you have, like, an actual... No, this one's... It's edible. It's edible. Okay. No, Yams is, like... For my dealings with Yams, and I only met him once very briefly in New York, Yams is, like, insanely tuned in with the culture. You know what I mean? He was around all that early shit, like 2012 to 2013, 14, the Raider Clan era. Like, Yams didn't show any disrespect. Like, I know there was, like, tension between, like, SGP, Space Ghost Purp, and Rocky at that time. but like yams reached out to me early and he's just like we fuck what you're doing he he told me like at the time it was there was no spotify or fucking uh reverberation apple apple music he's just like i bought all your tapes off van camp i love what you're doing you know i mean like just mad love and i'd like facetime him and he's just like yams was like a fucking he's just like a he's just like cultural like just tuned in with the culture so I produce a song on the fucking Cozy Tapes. It's a name. It's a title that we're not allowed to say. Why? What's it called? The Cozy Tapes. No, no, no. The song on the tape. Oh, yeah, yeah. The song, I can't say the song title. Young. guy yeah yeah yeah yeah young social worker young person living right right right right no but like that song came about like before yams died and then when yams died they released a tape and i had a placement because of him because that man showed so much love like that guy was he was trying to like do a lot before he died but uh

It just couldn't happen. He was going to, like, get everybody out to Atlanta. He was like, I'm going to buy a house and just produce it in it. We're just going to fucking... Like, Yams was trying to give opportunities out for no reason. He's a good guy. I mean, I don't think it was for no reason. Like, I think that if he deemed you worthy, he deemed you worthy for it. He just fucked with you. Yeah. Which I think also given... Also, my buddy, Curtis Heron, like, produced the fucking... What was the big ASAP song at the time? Pesos? Peso, Purple Kisses. No, it's after that. Fashion Killer. Dancing in the video. I don't remember, man. Anyway, Yam sent me that video like three months early before it even dropped. And he was like, is this valid or not? And I was like, it's hard. Did he use the word valid? It's the one that's like, wee, wee, wee. It's got like the crazy shit in the beginning. I honestly don't remember, man. I don't know. Anyway. I loved... You know what song I'm talking about? That ASAP song was like... Y'all know what I'm talking about. What happened? I'm just too drunk to think about it. Yeah. You really want to get into that? I mean, I have no idea. I knew the whole lore. I mean, go off. I don't know if I should go off. I think you should. Fuck. It's hard, bro. He's like my favorite artist at that time. I still... To this day, to this day, classy. But yeah, what, he kind of like, at least from the outside. He fell off. From your perspective, apparently. Yeah, he just fell out of view. He just fell off. But you know what really happened? Because I know the whole lore. So fucking, uh... Should I see all this on the fucking camera like? You can bleep whatever after. Yeah, we can cut it all afterwards if you want it gone. There's not actually a live stream. Okay, bet, bet, bet. I mean, it's known what happened. That album's like a masterpiece, you know what I mean? Just like front to back, like great songs, you know what I mean?

At this time, like, popping, like, there's videos of, like, Justin Bieber dancing to in the club. You know what I mean? Sorry. Yeah, there's videos of, like, my boy, Justin Bieber. My homie. No. You know what I mean? Like, guaranteed to be up. Like, on some Chief Keef shit. He was next, for sure. And then they did, uh... Rolling Loud. Like, I don't remember what year it was. Like, 2013, 2014. He was headlining every show at Rolling Loud. Like, top billing. Every fucking show at Rolling Loud. I knew his manager. Like, I was tight with him. Except... Whatever. Whatever. Okay. But, um... Fucking, uh... So at some random show in Rolling Loud, he just got a fucking rape case. Oh, shit. Yeah. That's what I'm like. This is like some downer shit. He just got raped? No. Opposite. Opposite. Opposite. Like some fucking essay, fucking rape, whatever the fuck. Manager dropped him that day and leaves the state. He's like, he's like, whatever. Maybe he's guilty. Maybe he's innocent. I don't know. I'm not a fucking lawyer or a fucking prosecutor, you know? And after that, his management dropped him. Fake niggas. They do it all for the clowns. Always run in their mouth. But they've never been about. I splashed niggas in and out. What's your like gay vernacular?
