Short excerpt from a YouTube video titled "Break the things that bind you #FYM" (uploaded by Worldwide Ty). The clip contains an informal back-and-forth between two speakers about feeling trapped ("shiny prison"), a dispute involving a person named Jane, living/staying with family (mother), and tension over being "artist friendly" versus personal boundaries. Language is conversational and candid.
Todd, have you ever felt you were in a shiny prison and had to get out? Or was that a job?
Hell no. I used to stay my mama. I remember having this conversation with Jane, and my mom was actually in the bedroom. I mean, my mom was actually in the living room. And me and Jane was at my apartment in the hallway arguing. Cause she's really artist friendly. I'm really not that artist friendly. You're not really people.
Friendly?
Yeah, well, I can be people friendly. I'm just messing with you. Yeah, but I'm not that really that artist friendly. What I am is I'm integral and just so that my integrity happens to lean artist friendly sometimes. You know what I'm saying? So I remember me and her was going back and forth and I told her, I said, listen, every last one of these niggas can fire me. I'mma go stay with my mama and get my job back at Delta in 24 months. I'm back up. Fuck about these niggas like that.
