110%, a duo of childhood friends Shadante (Third?) and Sahm, are breaking into the Canadian rap scene
with international musical appeal and dramatic, covertly radical lyricism. In talking with SCADRadio’s
Production Director Megan, they cover their roots, their process, and a whole lot of anime. Read and
listen below.
Thank you to Spencer Henderson for his help in transcribing!
Megan: Hello SCAD Radio. Welcome to another interview. This is your production director, Megan Atwell,
here with…
Shadanté: Shadanté.
Sahm: I’m Sahm.
Megan: Otherwise known as One Ten Percent. There you go! All right, so for the people at home, can you
guys introduce yourselves as far as what you do in the band?
Shadanté: Yeah, I’m really either. We both co-create at the same time, a creative director so far with the first music video and stuff. But I always just go with songwriter and creative director.
Sahm: Yeah. And I usually handle most of our production and our engineering. And then also the vocal side of it, some singing, some rapping, you know.
Megan: Awesome! Yeah, so on that note, as far as what you guys both do in the band, I would like to ask, how do you guys start a track? Is it pretty democratic or do you guys start with one person kind of leading the way?
Sahm: I think it really depends, like per song. I think most songs are usually democratic, a healthy mix of both of our opinions, but sometimes, like Shante being big creative guy, he’ll come up with so many ideas and kind of just bounce them off of me. And sometimes we’ll have a song name or a cool lyric that he wrote down and we’ll start. We went through different eras, right? So sometimes I’ll just sit in front of my computer and I’m just making beats by myself and stuff like that. And then because I’m so excited, I’ll just start rapping on it early, record some early stuff, and then just send it off to him.
Shadanté: Yeah.
Sahm: And then sometimes he’ll be like, oh, maybe we should talk about this, you know, and then we’ll maybe try to weave it in or change topics so it really depends on the song.
Megan: Yeah. So it’s pretty free form?
Shadanté: Yeah, no, honestly, that’s funny– fact is, that was the title for one of my songs actually, Freeform. He really helped out with that, so it’s funny you mention that word, .
Megan: I got the feeling, I guess! So for Leftside Story, the single that we’re going to be discussing, where did that kind of begin? Where did you guys start with that?
Shadanté: You were saying, I think Sahm was really going off–he just listened to certain distinct songs at the time, certain sounds was just going on. Really, I don’t know, he just kind of hit me with it. He would honestly have to go with the explanation on that one. I can’t take that from him, I don’t think.
Sahm: Yeah. So I think at the time we were listening to more upbeat music, so this was kind of one of the first attempts of making something a little bit more dancey.
Megan: Mm-hmm.
Sahm: and I don’t know if there was a [certain] song influence, but I do remember we were listening to a lot of different Latin music and stuff like that, so that kind of went into play. And again, it’s a very free form process and it went through a bunch of beat changes, a bunch of different evolutions. And then we kind of just got to this point and that’s when sometimes he has to stop me cause I’ll just keep going, but he’s like, I like it where it is. We should stop and just do this.
Shadanté: Mm-hmm. . .
Megan: Yeah, I definitely get that. Being a visual artist, it’s definitely hard to stop on a piece. You can always keep working it and then before you know it’s overwrought and you’re like, oh man, well now I can’t go back. Forgot how I got where I was in the first place.
Shadanté: Yeah, exactly.
Megan: So I definitely get that. Did you face any challenges with creating the track? Were there any
roadblocks?
Shadanté: At points there was. It was just like how the song was structured out, like going back to the
skeleton of it. It was going nice, but then we got to a roadblock, I think just a certain lyric that Sahmmy said or that I said, we just was just [putting it] into play and we were just seeing like, “okay, wait, no.” I believe I
added on that we should just cut off from that point and go on somewhere else, and then honestly Sahmmy just did his magic, made it happen.
Megan: In the lyrics department, I noticed with the repetition that you kind of play with across the song, it
reminds me a little bit of Young Fathers. It sort of has that really building progressive feeling by stacking on itself. So how did you come to approach doing this theme of gun violence, as we’ll talk about, through sort of a motif rather than outright?
Sahm: Hmm. That’s a great question. I’m really glad that you’re paying attention to that. Cause very early on in the process I was thinking of a way–because gun violence, it’s very prevalent [in rap], right? So it’s a topic that’s always spoken about and whether it’s good to continue to talk about it or whether we shouldn’t. And I’m of the opinion that it’s part of our expression, it’s part of the things we experience, so it’s something that I don’t think I or many people will have power to stop, you know? But, so I wanted to talk about it in a way… kind of use it to tell the story of where we are, where we’re at, where we were at, kind of relationship wise. I’m using it as a metaphor for kind of hitting the streets, you know, and meeting people and meeting new women and stuff like that. Kind of using that to get some like commentary almost on how much we romanticize gun violence in rap music. So to use guns, gun language, talking about a relationship is kind of that, you know, representation there.
Megan: Yeah. On that note of romanticization and like your experience, I know that right now there’s sort of a contentious thing going on where A$AP Rocky just dropped a track where he was kind of reflecting back on his previous music and saying, did I add anything to the world with this, or was I just rehashing pain over and over again. Was I ever evolving past it? So I think that this is definitely an interesting evolution on what you might have thought outright, “well, I should talk about this because I need to bring attention to the brutality,” but instead you’re bringing attention to the romanticization, which I think is very interesting.
Sahm: That’s awesome. I actually didn’t even know that he was talking about that in his latest song. That’s a good thing because I think I’ve thought about that with him specifically as well.
Megan: Yeah, he released that track and I remember, Ghais Guevara posted on his story about that song and people were on two sides of it where they were mocking Rocky and saying, come on man, like you gotta stick with it, your music was influential, don’t go back on it now. Like you’re letting cancel culture affect you, whatever cancel culture is, and Ghais was like, you guys are stupid because this is him evolving past being on the streets. As soon as you’re able to be elevated above that, you look down and you realize the systemic issues that are keeping you there, it’s not your fault that you were in that, but also you weren’t helping yourself [by discussing those topics]. You weren’t helping your peers. So it’s, it’s so stupid to expect him to stay down there when nobody should be down there in the first place. So I think that it’s definitely a cool spin to hear, a lot of people talking about this issue in a lot of different ways.
Sahm: Yeah. That’s awesome. That’s a great point, honestly.
Megan: I wanted to ask too, because Rocky, being from America, has a different perspective on it from you guys being from Canada.
Shadanté: Mm-hmm…
Megan: I think that gun violence is typically associated with America, but Canada has its own history of
violence with like native erasure, stuff like that. Do you guys think that Canada has a similar issue with gun
violence, and do you think that maybe the fact that Canada’s thought of as a “soft” country keeps it from being held accountable for that?
Shadanté: I don’t think we’re really a soft country. I think that’s a skewed perspective that the world has on us and that we also have on each other at times when we go out and try to enjoy life and so on and so forth. I would say I think it comes back to how, if you look at certain laws being in place, people go around 3D printing guns and using that at times and we hear in certain shootings and so on. But I think the level of how it’s being shown in the media, it’s just not the same caliber, it’s not the same degree of how we’re seeing either school shootings left, right, and center in America. But back here we have one shooting and then we had a whole lot put in place and it just kind of just put practically a halt to it all. So I don’t think it’s in the same ball field, the two, but it still finds its way here and there.
Megan: Yeah.
Sahm: I was thinking about the question and I don’t think the outward perspective on us effects the legislation and how things are changed. But I think our inward perception is very distorted because of the way that Canadians have taught history; as much as we’re seen as progressive and very polite and whatever, Canadians have been very destructive. We’re the main force behind why native and aboriginal people have such difficulties now. And I think that we don’t see the violence around us because we weren’t educated on what that kind of violence looked like. Because we do see ourselves as soft. We tend to look at America as like, “oh, you guys are a problem. We don’t have gun laws like that, so we’re not the problem.”
Megan: Yeah.
Sahm: But we have different kinds and different forms of violence and I think at times it could be worse, you know, depending– I’m not too deep on like American history, but I’ve been looking into Canadian history and it’s not as squeaky clean as like everybody likes to think, you know. But gun violence is a little bit different. You know, we’ve had some incidents with, like, crossbows and different kinds of weapons because of the fact that it’s harder to get guns, but it’s still definitely an issue.
Megan: Yeah. That’s interesting. That’s a commonly discussed thing in America too, that if you were to
outright ban guns right now, it wouldn’t stop people from being violent towards each other. I think that at the end of the day, guns are obviously an issue because they are just readily accessible here and easy to use for extremely destructive purposes. But also there’s something to be said about structural violence and the ways that you’re raised that make it feel okay to lash out in that way.So that’s a global issue, I think. I think that the fact that you have a lot of global influence on this song is also an interesting way to sort of play off of the global effect of gun violence. It almost implies that in some way. Speaking of the cultural influences on the song, I wanted to ask: knowing that you guys are second gen immigrants, I wanted to ask– I don’t know where your parents are from, but wherever they are from, [how] their cultural music influenced you wanting to of break free of maybe typical rap trappings of just sticking to 808s and stuff like that.
Sahm: Yeah, well for me specifically since I do handle a lot of the production, I’ve taken a lot of smaller
elements and mixed them in here and there. Like a lot of our early tracks that we unfortunately never got to release had a lot more Asian influence ‘cause my mom is Chinese, and I used a lot of Chinese instruments and kind of chord structures and scales. It’s not even something I grew up listening to, like honestly, my mom, a Chinese woman, listens to more dancehall and reggae.
Megan: Oh, interesting.
Sahm: And like my Jamaican dad who likes to listen to a lot of different other kinds of genres, you know? It has affected the more new music, [but I can’t say] how much [of] it’s in there cuz some of it is so instilled in me. Like it could be even just the samples I choose, could be based off of some of the songs I listened to when I was younger, you know what I mean?
Megan: Mm-hmm.
Sahm: I’m sure it’s influenced deep in there. I can’t even say like where in those songs, but for sure it’s, it’s
affected me.
Shadanté: I would say for myself, my parents being Jamaican and coming here during their high school years and so on, we would be listening to a lot of reggae, a lot of dance hall, like in the car going to places growing up. And I would say, you know, maybe not exactly how I speak per se, but the gestures of how I was raised under all of that influence did find its way to my lyrics, find its way to some of the big choices like you were saying before.
Megan: Yeah, I definitely hear a unique voice in the music that you guys are making, and I think that the
unique cultural heritage is definitely poking through there. I also wanted to ask about being in Montreal. So that’s a large city, right? How have you found that being in that area with so many people has that affected yourdevelopment as artists?
Sahm: Hmm, that’s a good question.
Shadanté: I’d say it was just meeting so many different faces, different ways of how they were being raised. And especially when you find the ones that are artistically inclined, at least for me, it just made me question exactly where I see myself, what moves me visually, sonically or so on. And honestly, I don’t know, just tippy toeing and finding what just feels right at the moment. Then my friends that moved from New York–when I lived in LaSalle came, he just came on the block at some point. Then he said, “Hey, let’s try to pick up rapping a little bit” and messed around back when we were growing up and just seeing how that felt. It felt nice, but I didn’t really push forward with it at the time. And then at some point Sahm just came to me after graduating and just like, “Hey, you wanna rap?” I’m like, “Not much.” I mean, let’s see. I do have a feeling for it, but let’s see where I can really go with it from this point.
Sahm: I think for me it affected me more in terms of like, I got to see a lot of different people and all the
different cultures and I got to see the different forms of oppression that these kinds of people have faced. And it made me like… as much as some songs might seem like they’re not about much, there’ll be small notes and comments on certain things that I’ve seen. It’s made me want to talk on these things. Like I think maybe if my environment was different, I wouldn’t be so aware of all these kinds of problems and I wouldn’t see it as a need to talk about them because I see that they’re not spoken about now. I want to be a voice that can spread those messages, you know?
Megan: Yeah, definitely. Do you think that Montreal is home for you or do you think that you would like to go somewhere else in the future?
Sahm: I mean, it’s home for now, but I do have dreams of going to Japan and moving into a nice traditional Japanese house. But yeah, it is home and I want to leave really badly and get somewhere where it’s hot and there’s no snow. That’d be great, no super cold, freezing temperatures. But like, I do think I would miss it, you know? Cause I haven’t got to live anywhere else. I think eventually I’d like to come back. So it is for sure home.
Megan: Yeah.
Shadanté: No, I’ll have to say the same thing too. Like, I want to go to Jamaica at some point, live there for like a couple years to really like bring up my Patois and stuff like that and just absorb the heat and everything else that the world has to offer. But yeah, no, it is like Sahmmy said, I’m not a fan of the snow. Last weekend was just too cold, honestly. It was disgusting. And it was supposed to be a birthday weekend, no less. But it’s home. It’s the familiarity of it all. You can’t just abandon it like that. It’s gonna creep back on you. Just like how winter does, it’s gonna come back. You’re gonna want to come back.
Megan: You can’t take the Canada out of the man. I’m from California, so I’m used to it being very warm, and I’m the opposite. I wanna go somewhere cold, so I’m trying to live in Seattle or something. Or like I could see myself moving to Norway or something.
Sahm: That would be cool. That would be interesting.
Megan: It is interesting that you mentioned Japan though, cause Japan is a musical scene that I’m very
interested in as far as their mixture of culture and stuff like that. I’ve even thought from back in the day, like city pop, there’s so much cool Caribbean influence and stuff, so do you listen to a lot of Japanese music?
Sahm: Yeah. Well, we’re big weebs.
Megan: Same.
Sahm: So we’ve been like, at least me personally, I’ve been diving into it. I’m so happy you mentioned City
Pop, I have not gotten to like, speak about it. But like, I’ve recently discovered it and it’s so beautiful. We’ve gone to some city pop events in the city where some friends of ours were DJing. It’s the best time and it feels nostalgic, like it’s such a great style of music that I’m so late on and I’m mad at myself [for that].
Megan: Yeah! I’ve been listening because I’m also a huge weeb, and I was getting into like city pop back when like I was on Tumblr, like people were making edits to it. Now I’m getting more into like, J-Jazz and their punk scene and everything, and I feel like even more of a weeb being like, “oh yeah, I listen to a lot of Japanese music.” And I’m like, “but it’s not anime openings! It’s not all anime openings.” There are some bangers, but that’s not all . So what did you guys grow up watching as far as anime?
Shadanté: Ooh, we have to give it to Naruto. We have to give it to, I mean, argue whoever you wanna argue
with. Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon, Metabot…
Sahm: Digimon, Spider Riders.
Megan: Some deep cuts there.
Sahm: My dad put me on the classics before I could walk.
Shadanté: Mm-hmm.
Sahm: Basically he put on like the Ghibli movies and Akira, and there’s this one called Spriggan.
Megan: Dude, that’s hardcore watching Akira as a kid!
Sahm: Oh yeah. My mom didn’t like it. And even Ghost in the Shell. My mom didn’t know about Akira, but
then he put on Ghost in the Shell and my mom saw that the woman almost looked naked.
Megan: Yeah.
Sahm: Which was like, no, no, no, no. And so he turned it off. And a year later on my birthday, he gave me the
Ghost in the Shell manga, and was like, “don’t tell your mom.” It was the best.
Megan: That’s awesome. My mom did that with us too, except she hated like Ren and Stimpy, like the gross out humor type stuff. But I grew up on Dragon Ball Z Kai because I think I’m a little bit younger than you guys. So I was like watching it with the improved pacing and I was like, “this rock!”. Then I went back to watch GT and I was like, “this is so slow.”
Sahm: GT sucks! GT sucks.
Shadanté: Yo I know I don’t hear GT slander on this right now…
Sahm: I didn’t see Kai though. I watched the original and I went back to it after I had my daughter. Cause I
was like, we’re just sitting out watching stuff at home and I was like, lowkey like this kind of sucks. I was like, I’m waiting 20 episodes between Goku preparing to fight Frieza and then he fights Frieza? 30 episodes, 20 episodes is too long.
Megan: Yeah. Kai has better pacing, so I didn’t get as bored as a kid, but I remember my brother and I would look up highlights to watch the tournament arcs back, like over and over and over again. But then I went on my own over to watching, I watched all of Bleach when I was like eight. And then I went and watched Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood and then Fruits Basket. So those were my three. And to this day, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is my favorite. I watch it annually. I think I’m on like my ninth time now.
Sahm: I love Fullmetal. I think I watch it three times and I’ll cry every time at the Mr. Tucker and…
Megan: …and Nina. Oh, it’s so sad. I’m that way with–have you watched Hunter hunter?
Sahm: Of course. So I’m on like my third, fourth one of that one too.
Megan: Yeah. When Meruem and Komugi have their last scene together, I will look that up and I’ll watch it
for 30 seconds and it’ll make me bawl. Like it’s too much.
Sahm: No, that’s so sad and it’s so beautiful. It’s like I get, I’m so easy, like with anime, you give me a
flashback in the middle of an intense moment and I’m bawling my eyes out and I got chills.
Megan: Like the best example of that is the Obito/Kakashi fight.
Sahm: That’s the–oh my God!
Megan: That’s the one!
Sahm: You’re so cultured–oh man, you’re so cool. I love that. My favorite Naruto fight is that one.
Megan: It’s so good.
Sahm: I still study that to this day.
Megan: Right now I’m getting one of my friends into anime cuz he thought that he never could. So we started with Samurai Champloo because he likes Nujabes. And then we went to Chainsaw Man because I wanted him to be on that early and now we’re watching Bleach on his request. He was like “I wanna watch Bleach,” I was like, are you ready for a 400 episode anime?
Shadanté: Yes..
Sahm: No, that’s actually crazy because back to, back to back is some of the best music in anime.
Megan: Yeah. Dude, the bleach soundtrack is underrated. That shit is amazing.
Sahm: I didn’t even finish Bleach and I know that the Bleach soundtrack is exceptional. The bleach opening one might be the best, arguably. I’ll argue it.
Shadanté: Mm-hmm.
Sahm: It’s maybe, it’s, it’s top three for sure, but for me it might be the number one.
Megan: Like, it’s so good.
Shadanté: Bro, for sure it’s too nostalgic to listen to the songs.
Sahm: Feels like Adult Swim, feels like staying up. And it’s the best feeling ever.
Megan: Yeah. I know that anime is becoming skate culture in some ways, which is really interesting. Like,
you got the MeganThee Stallion “p***y like like a wild fox, looking for a Sasuke,” something like that. Have you ever felt tempted to add in anime stuff to your music? Like as far as the beats or the lyrics.
Sahm: It’s in all of it.
Megan: Really?
Sahm: In all of it.
Megan: That’s awesome.
Sahm: There’s this one song, that’s unfortunately to this day, I’ve never spent more time working on a song.
Shadanté: Oh, yes.
Sahm: And it’s called The Kickback. It’s off our first EP, and it’s at least listened to song. And it’s so sad cause I worked the longest on it.
Megan: Aw.
Sahm: I think there’s a Killua bar in there. I think I mentioned–
Shadanté: There’s s a Naruto bar.
Sahm: There’s Naruto, I think I’m talking about. Oh, “it’s the kyuubi kick back cuz we never stopping”. It’s
littered in everything and then other songs like I think in…what is it? There’s a song where I start off with Attack on Titan references.
Shadanté: Yes. Breadcrumbs.
Sahm: Breadcrumbs. I think I say something like “I might lose an Armin a leg,” slipping it in there.
Megan: Yeah! Dude, I’ve been, I’ve been looking forward to hearing more people move on from like Dragon Ball Z and Naruto like I want to hear more of the deep cuts. Come on.
Shadanté: One Piece. It’s not a deep cut, I guess. Well, I mean, it’s a deep cut to the world right now.
Megan: Yeah.
Shadanté: Yeah. No, no. One piece is, by far, I would say in the best fiction of all time.
Megan: I need to get into it. My brother is cracked. He’s read the manga three times and watched the anime twice.
Shadanté: Hell yes.
Megan: He’s goated with it. He was funny, I was so intimidated by the length of it, cuz I haven’t watched a
reoccurring shonen like that since I was like 10, and he was like, “don’t worry, I got you.” And he sent me a list of what you can skip on your first watch for the sake of pacing and all that.
Sahm: Yeah the filler list! Shadanté hit me with that too. Cause he was the one that begged me for years. He was like, Sahmmy, God. Cause I’ve known him since I was, how old? I was like 12.
Shadanté: Exactly.
Sahm: And, since then, he would do like the One Piece laugh and I was like this guy is a loser. You tell me
every year “watch it,” every few months “watch it,” I’m like, “bro, I’m never gonna.” And I cracked and I
watched it and I was like, “I was sleeping. I was walking around with my eyes closed.”
Shadanté: It’s beautiful. Like your brother, I’m sure he knows. Growing up I was like 10, 11, I was at my
grandparent’s place. Chilling on the bed with my, where my mom used to be and all of that stuff. Watching it off the computer screen. I’m like… it is one of the few instances that I could say, “I am happy.” I can still remember to this day, it’s a show that really brings me to tears even when the pacing is bad and all of that other stuff, I couldn’t give a fudge honestly.
Megan: Yeah.
Shadanté: It’s just, it’s beautiful to just see that smile and hear those laughs and the cinematic presentation. Just sonically, like the third opening, I could put that on right now and I can honestly just feel the shivers down my spine. Like I understand what some people are saying–”I can’t die before One Piece ends.” I hope I convinced you.
Megan: Yeah, dude, I’ve been feeling like I need to, but I need to be watching dubs, since I’m doing
homework, I can’t be looking up at subs all the time. And I feel like a disgrace starting a show on a dub for the first time.
Sahm: It’s not bad. I did it.
Megan: Is it a good dub?
Shadanté: It’s good dub. I mean, it’s alright, but like, because one piece is really good, like you can kind of
get over it.
Megan: I’m just afraid of the old school 4Kids dubs, [they’re] so cheesy.
Shadanté: You know that’s a “lollipop.”
Megan: Yeah, exactly! Like Brock in Pokemon, the onigiri. It’s a “jelly donut.”
Shadanté: Dude–
Sahm: Oh my god, I remember that. How terrible.
Megan: Yeah, I know.
Sahm: You’re so good.
Megan: Thank you! It’s so funny. It’s like, “Americans are too stupid to understand what a Japanese snack is. This is a jelly donut.” That’s so bad. On the note of media that you guys are like pushing on each other: my brother and I have very similar tastes, so we’re always begging each other like “this is the one thing we don’t share. You need to listen to this.” Do you guys have any albums that you’re like begging each other to listen to?
Shadanté: I remember back in the day, I was begging him to listen to that 21 Savage tape. And he hated it.
Sahm: I’m just a hater.
Shadanté: And afterwards he came out and then finally accepted. I’m like, oh, okay.
Sahm: If Shadanté–if anybody tries to put me on anything, I don’t like it. Like I don’t know what it is. I need to
find it on my own.Like he tried to put me on Young Thug, on 21 Savage…
Shadanté: Slime Season three finally came out.
Sahm: Yeah, like, this was like 2016, like my friend was playing early Playboy Carti. And I was like, bro, he’s
saying one word the whole song. Now I’m stage diving, like I’m at the Carti concerts.
Megan: Now you’re trying to be Cardi.
Sahm: Yeah! So it’s like but I don’t know any albums that I’m like…
Shadanté: There was I guess in 2018, you showed me Veteran from JPEG Mafia.
Megan: That album goes so hard.
Shadanté: Yes, yes! I listened to it for the first time. I’m like, I don’t understand what’s going on here. So I
played it again and it made complete and utter sense.
Megan: that’s exactly how I felt.
Shadanté: It just captured me. Like my favorite song from it right now would have to be I Just Killed a Cop
and Now I’m Horny.
Megan: Yeah, dude. Best song title of that year. I swear to God,
Sahm: Easily.
Shadanté: Like, I even asked him on a stream one time, “why did you change the progression or the sounds of the song,” he answered and was just saying like, it was just outdated. And I’m like, I guess, but I loved it. I remember listening to it back on like a bus ride. You know, the clouds were just doing their thing, being blue and purple and stuff like that. And I’m just like, I don’t know…it just made sense to me listening to that, I always picture that moment. I’m like, why did you take this from me?
Megan: Yeah.
Sahm: Put me on Ghais Guevara.
Megan: Yeah!
Sahm: Shadanté was telling me about interviews, like, “oh, she wrote this article about him, we don’t know
anybody that’s really on him.” He’s really tried from time to get me onto him.
Megan: He rules. I love him. He just put out his Job’s Not Finished Pack, [and] there’s a Binging with Babish bar on there and it made me lose my mind. I was on the bus and I laughed out loud. He was like, “she’s in the kitchen bald, like Binging with Babish” or something.
Sahm: That’s amazing.
Megan: It was so funny.
Sahm: A very specific bar.
Megan: Yeah. He’s hilarious. I mean, like, when I interviewed him we talked about Guilty Gear, so there’s always these– like, I swear every cool rapper out there is a nerd.
Sahm: oh yeah.
Megan: Like, you do not have these good references if you’re not in the books and you’re not on like social media, if you’re not on like fucking Reddit looking at game walkthroughs. Like there’s no way.
Sahm: Yeah. Honestly, I’m so like this and, I don’t mean any offense by this, but I’m so shocked because you’re like whipping out these references. You’re so cultured, the deep rap cuts, the anime stuff, like all this. It’s awesome.
Megan: Aww, thank you! I don’t really have much else that I wanna talk about, so I think that that’ll do me.
Shadanté: All righty.
Megan: Thank you guys so much for talking, I appreciate it!
Shadanté: Thank you for having us.
Megan: If you guys would like to plug the single and your socials?
Shadanté: Oh, yes, yes. Leftside Story. It’s out right now, music videos are out as well! Creative director, moi and everyone else, we have Mel, we have V. Sean, we have Ty, we have Alif, if it wasn’t for them, the music video would not be where it is right now. Thank you very much to everyone else that’s watching it. We’re here and we got something new and we’re loving it.
