Summary

Big X tha Plug discusses building the 6WA collective as a family-oriented label rather than a traditional business, emphasizing loyalty and collective success. The group released a mixtape that charted at #18 on Billboard's independent albums chart, featuring artists who overcame street life and legal challenges to pursue music professionally.

Insights
  • Loyalty and collective advancement create competitive advantage: successful artists who bring their team along build stronger ecosystems than solo operators
  • Legal and systemic barriers disproportionately affect emerging artists from street backgrounds, requiring strategic positioning and visibility to counter gang profiling
  • Independent music success requires consistent content production, strategic marketing, and personal brand building outside traditional label infrastructure
  • Family-first mentality in business decisions (prioritizing team welfare over individual gain) differentiates sustainable creative enterprises from transactional ones
  • Generational wealth transfer through mentorship and opportunity-sharing produces measurable outcomes (platinum records, stadium tours, financial stability)
Trends
Independent artists achieving major chart positions without major label backing, signaling shift in music industry power dynamicsCollective/crew-based artist models outperforming solo artist trajectories in streaming and touring metricsStreet-to-mainstream narrative becoming primary marketing angle for hip-hop authenticity and audience connectionLegal system targeting emerging artists based on reputation rather than specific actions, creating PR/visibility as defensive strategyFamily and mentorship-based artist development replacing traditional A&R scouting modelsMulti-platform content consistency (social media, interviews, performances) as essential artist infrastructureParental involvement and family support systems as underestimated factor in artist longevity and mental healthFemale artists in male-dominated crews establishing credibility through competitive excellence rather than tokenism

Listen nephews, I'm trying to show you all the way. I got platinum plaques independent. Some of y'all's on the big machines and y'all ain't even go platinum yet. I'm platinum. Just independent. Independent rap hustling. I'm gonna just let y'all know. Fuck out. I'm independently rap. You only talking like Martin Luther King and shit now. He ain't no. I'm platinum. I'm platinum. I'm platinum. He's not. And I got and I'm new platinum. This ain't old shit. I got new plaques. Nobody cared about my shit. No, no, no, no, my shit. No, I don't know. Platinum win 93. That shit don't matter. Nobody know about them. They playing my shit now. Y'all listening to take care right now. So I'm saying, but listen, we won't get to this. Now X. Why was it important? First of all, how did 600 start, right? And then why was it important to bring the team along? Because a lot of people, they do their thing, but they be having people just stand around and people just be rapping for years and they never, they never come out. I mean, when we originally started, we started as a group called TSABB. Televans, big business. Crazy ass man. Yeah. And so we, whenever we started rapping, and I wanted to start a label, I tried to use that and they was like, nah, it's too confrontation. I'm like, what you mean? You got Taliban in it. So I'm like, all right, best. So my, my block where I come from, where I, it's 600. So I just took that and turned it into a label. You know what I'm saying? Kind of like, I guess a better version of the hood. You know what I'm saying? And so Rose, the first, you know, he kind of got me rapping. So it was, it was kind of a given with that. And then we just kept building. We did the first tape, meet the sixes. That just went go. And then we, you know what I'm saying? We just kept going. We added to the, to the team and with, but this project, it was still just different though, because we went with, we went in with this project like with, like a reasoning, like the first project was just awesome. We want to put, I wanted to put them out there. So let's, let's make a tape and just put some good music out there to get everybody heard. But this was like, we, we was all going through like similar shit. So we are, we like, we wanted to, you know what I'm saying? Talk about it. And that's where like the 6WA and WA thing even came from. Because that's how we felt. We felt like we making artists, rap money, doing all this rap shit. Ain't doing no dirt. And we come out of the studio right now, we can get put down, face down on the ground by the police for it. Because not even, they done gave us gang files, this, that and the other, because we, they see we making some type of impact. They just don't know if it's a positive or a negative when you get. And so before we even can see what type of impact we want to give, they trying to nip it in the bud for we can even do it. And so that's kind of why that's where our head was when we started to tape. Then I ended up adding other people to the, you know what I'm saying? And so we, at the end of the day, they don't understand we're a team. If they're on the team now, they got to be over here. So that's why came and GB ended up getting added. But yeah, man, we, you know, it's a family. It's not really a label. It's a family. Let me ask you a question. You know, he said he, when we was talking, he said, you know, this was off camera. He said, you know, you've been there since day one with anybody. You know what I mean? You know, even helping him on some shit or whatever it is is all for the team. You feel what I'm saying? But a lot of times, you know, they go down and it worked for him. And a lot of times it's like, I'm the cash cow now, I gotta, I gotta get this motherfucking people why I can't. I gotta, you feel what I'm saying? How do we feel to you that he come back now when like, no, niggas, it's our turn now. I mean, it, it, it feel regular though, like, because we've been partners for so long, it's like, I knew he was going to do it. You know what I'm saying? So don't, it don't feel like no certain, I don't got no certain feeling towards it because it's regular. Okay. But, but honestly, though, I just want you to know right though, it's not regular. Because a lot of times, and you probably see, you probably seen rap motherfuckers together and you see them together in the beginning and then one motherfucker take off and then you don't see them niggas together anymore. You feel what I'm saying? I'm pretty sure you probably done seen it. You know what I'm saying? So it's not some regular shit for a motherfucker to stay down after he done achieved success and he see, oh, I'm the way I'm the, I'm the light. I'm the, you feel what I'm saying? No, nigga, you eat a nigga be satisfied. He's saying, no, I'm, no, I'm gonna let you get an opportunity to do your thing. You feel what I'm saying? I don't want you to ever think that that that's not regular because most motherfuckers is selfish individuals. Well, that care about themselves that once they get that they goals accomplished, they don't give a fuck about what your goals is. Feel what I'm saying? So you know what I mean? I don't want you ever think is regularly some, it's some real shit. And it's something you probably was expecting because you know the relationship and you know him. You feel what I'm saying? But there's a lot of motherfuckers out there that feel like I thought I knew my man. I thought he was coming back to save my life. I thought he was coming back, not even to save my life to give me an opportunity to rap. Because he know I'm good. I do it with him. We've been doing this shit since day one. A lot of times a lot of niggas get left behind. But see, I don't even get enough comeback situation. He was, he big, we be standing by step. I'm gonna go do this. I'll be right now. Come on. And then he don't even go to the world without us. Like if he don't, if he get invited to a party and they say, no, you can only go. He'd be like, I ain't going because they not going. So how I feel to shine with your brothers? Feel amazing. I feel better than doing it by myself because it's like, when you do it by yourself, you gotta worry about the talk and the chatter and the show. But it's like when you taking care of everybody, it's like you can't nobody say nothing. It's like the ones that do say something, it's like you just hate them because the people that I care about, that's why I care about that input. And as long as they saying they good, fine for you and they keep us good, I ain't worry about anything. So that's how that's, I mean, we feel amazing that that I was able to call him on his birthday and say, nigga, you woke up, you 28, you black, you got money in your pocket and you woke up, you stable. If you're good to call him and say that, you know what I'm saying, sir. So, talk to me. How did you, you know, what part do you play and how did you come to the full? I came in the fall right before the Texas song, just being around, just me running into a brother all the time. We were recording at the Science Studio. He just told me, he's gonna come back and get me. You know what I'm saying? Just seeing me putting my work in my own cell, you know, I'm at the studio every day, just grinding, just, you know, putting the hustle in you need. When he made it, he came and got me. You had to sacrifice it. Like I say, I was ten toes in the street. And when he signed me, I had to go on tour the next day. Did he say good life? Yeah, for sure. I missed a lot of drug housebusts, a lot of my partners fighting cases right now, a lot of my partners doing time right now in this two year period, you know what I'm saying? Going on for three years to where I lost a lot of people that I was with every day. It would have been the science situation, for sure, for sure, it would have been the science situation. And it's an older nigga, like he way older than me. So it's not like it was on the, oh, I don't find the ending in the studio that I see got something. It was a nigga, I see you talented and I can, I see your work ethic, you know what I'm saying? I feel like anybody that can listen, I can do something with. And you grow, you way older than me. And the little inputs of shit that I am giving you, you see that I'm, because you see that I'm, you know, I'm making a little impact for myself. And so for me to be my age and you be your age, and I tell you, if you just tweak this, you just do that, you'll do something. And he listen. And you're older than me. You know that niggas don't do that. Niggas look at it like, I'm older than you, you got to bring it out and did that. I ain't, they feel like they can't learn that. He's stuck in the way. For sure. And for him to be, for it to be that situation that he was able to listen to me. And then for him, for me to know where he was at and what he was doing. And for him to hear me out and take that chance to hop on the road the next day, it just showed me, I bet he, this is, he for the cause. Being the only female in the group, how do I feel? Well, you go in the studio and you run laps around one of the boys. You smoke one of these. Why you have to laugh? Fuck about it. I don't care. Okay. You ain't never had to laugh. Like she said, why you laughing? Like I, the stuff that ain't come out. You know, that's not your heart though. But I mean, I, I get that question a lot. Um, I don't feel like I'm intimidated or anything by anybody that's on the team because like, if that was the case, I wouldn't be here. If I was to piss down my leg, I wouldn't be here. You know what I'm saying? So I don't feel like it's something that could be taken away from me. I'm hard just like them. But show them. And I can't laugh some rap. You know, I can laugh dad. Yeah. That's what I said. No, you don't laugh. Type shit, type shit. And let me salute you. And let me salute you. Right. Because you called out the balls too. Like, but you laughing for like, you think I can't get you. Yeah, you heard me in that boom. And, and, and let's be honest, right. This shit is a sport. This is like basketball. This is like no, I don't know no basketball player that ever before they got to the league and got their role ever was like, I just want to show up and get eight points. You feel what I'm saying? So you supposed to want to shine on every record you get on. That's how we came in though. You feel me? You supposed to want to be like, no, I'm gonna add a motherfucking hottest catch his verse on this motherfucker. Because that gotta be your mind frame because it's a friendly competition. Especially when you know X on his joint. He already got his fan base. So they already listening for him. So I got to go jump. No, for real. When we was writing, who done it? He didn't let me look at his shit. He was like, nah, nah, finish your shit first. Because this is a little secret competition. And he don't give a fuck you a woman, you and his group and all that. And he's like, no, I'm gonna cook your ass. I'm gonna make you bring that monster out for sale. He want to make you change your verse. Like hold on, I'm gonna write my shit though. I do it feel X right. Getting more on your business. Because the first time we met, we was in Colorado or prime and all that and my poetry to the side I was talking to you. And you're served far from that place and just being on your business. You had a lot of people with you at that time. I was like, damn. We talked about that. But how do it feel now to be in a different place from where you was the first time we met? To see how far we were came. It's a blessing. Especially for me. I ain't never been my pop, my pop, I tell you, never been never rapper. I ain't never wanted to rap. I don't know how it happened to be honest. I'm glad it did. I thank God it did. But I don't know how it happened. So for us to be here and for me to be able to help the people that I'm helping. It's a blessing. I told you something. When we was there, what did I tell you? And it was crazy too. Because it was a laughing matter. Everybody was laughing. He was cracking jokes. And he just got up and he walked up to me. He was like, you know, everybody ain't gonna be able to go everywhere you go. Everybody's gonna be able to be with you. And I ain't gonna lie. I didn't understand that at the time. I was just like, man, everybody. Fuck over here. He's talking about. He's talking about. He's talking about. Yeah. I knew you were trying to speak some knowledge, but I just didn't know what the lesson was. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm looking at everybody that's around me right now. Like, oh, this is my DJ. This is my cameraman. Who I got around that's not supposed to be around. And it still didn't happen the next day. It didn't happen the day after that. But she had. And you know, that was just like one of the first things I thought about when it happened. Because it get real. And hold on. Let me ask you this. Dude, did it kind of hurt a little bit when you realized that when you grow, everybody can go? Of course, especially with me being the person that I am, because a lot of the stuff that I do, I do for others. So whenever it's like I file out with somebody or somebody can't make it to where I'm at, it's like, damn, because it's like I fuck me and what I wanted for myself. I wanted you to make it. I wanted you to be where I was at. And yeah, the fact that you can't because I can't do nothing about it to even get you up here. It's like being up a level and you can't you ain't got no rope. You ain't got no ladder. You can't you can't reach out far enough to grab them. But you want them to be right here. It's your heart. It's like especially when you look at me, you love me. You know what I'm saying? You don't went through a lot with that person or whoever the fuck it is. It's your heart. But at the end of the day, I got kids. So I can't keep do I can't dwell on that. That whole take care me thinking about and take care of it. I was depressed through that whole time. So you know what I'm saying? So like, yeah, I just can't I can't get back to there. Because I barely made it. So yeah, I rather cut ties and think about my kids now. Now now pops. How do I feel to see your boy out here? You know, internationally, you know, creating music that people is just moving to thinking to feeling good to how do I feel to see your boy?

I used to want him to rap because because he had a good way with words. He not lying. He used to, I know him I say I'm bad, but I'm gonna tell it. He used to have a spot in the apartments and they'll be doing everything they doing. I'm like nine tier and Papa just be stopping through to get some money, pick up some money and they had this round table. They had a mic in the middle of it and they would be in there rapping trying to have an actual rap career. Your papa's in there? No, not rapping. He ain't there. It's my spot. Yeah, it's his spot. You know what I'm saying? He was walking there picking up money, you know what I'm saying? But he would take me in there with him because he don't want to leave me in the car and niggas would be in there rapping and he'd be like, nigga, my son a smoky niggas. I'm like, nigga, that little nigga can't rap and he'd be like, nigga, you can cuss, go ahead and I get the rolling ass. And then we were getting the car, he'd be like, nigga, yo, you sure you don't want to be no rapper? And I'd be like, no, sir, I want to be a firefighter. No bullshit. No bullshit. I wanted to be a firefighter waiting for a football player. It was never a rapper. Never. That was never the thought. I want to be a firefighter. Pitching my big ass on the back of him. You be hot. Yeah, I mean, back burning. Back burning. But no, I mean, when I see it, I'm proud of him, but I already knew it. I mean, I knew it. Like, it don't surprise me. So, you know, I'm proud of him.

Yeah, I can't, I can't get used to it. I can't get used to calling none of my kids by their nickname. So, they name them. But, you know, I'm proud of, I'm proud of. Let me just say this. We proud of you too, bro. Because I remember your first show in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania at a theater called the TLA that hold approximately a thousand people. You know what I mean? And you came in there and you rocked that shit. And then you was finishing off the tour you was on. And then after that, it was just a fucking explosion. It went from doing like thousand, 1500 cat venues to like, I seen you like every fucking way. I'm talking about motherfuckers losing a fucking mind. You know what I mean? So, and it was like, damn, I just, I just see the witness it like that. He was just in a thousand cat rooms, 1500 cat rooms. And now he in stadiums. And that shit just was happening. Just was, but you was putting that fucking work in. And you got really good fucking music that you could listen to from top to fucking bottom. And into many albums becoming out like that no more. So, I want to salute you on that as well. One of the main reasons that like that, like, see, see when it went when my next reached out to me, and we was putting take here together, the direction that I thought for the album was about it was it was shut the fuck up. No, I was on creative. I'm talking about the creative direction that I gave to you here. No, we tell me the album, you tell me the album was from top to bottom. I'm trying to explain to listen, listen, listen. The reason the album is top to bottom. I was on the first song in the middle and at the end. So what I'm telling you is the structure of the production and my approach of my approach of just creative direction pops. You don't even get away with this stupid how you fucking business, man. Like you know, he just gave me from top to bottom. Personal motherfuckers out as baby girl break did with the purple shirt. She's like this. This is all here. This is all here. Full of shit. See, because when I listen, listen, when I go into the studio, I don't, you know what I mean? I don't go in here to just play games. I go in here. You didn't even go in the fucking studio.

How you gonna break? I'm the first nigga one platinum on the voice. Now you ain't talking to me because I had to go in the studio. When you don't go in the world is my studio. The world is my fucking studio. I'm an artist. Let me just tell you something. This when you know a nigga can turn anything into they side. That nigga said the world is my studio. Then you like what the fuck I'm gonna say to that. Think about this. That's when you fully think about this. You got people that record in hotels, people record in trap houses, people record in studios. No, they said in the studio setup though. They got studio on the phone. Studios on my phone. They got people that record on their phone. Record on my phone, bro. Yeah, like you understand that. Bro, he recorded. That's the same thing. That's not the fucking studio. Stop this shit. Y'all trying to be voice memo is in the studio. For me, I just came out your fucking studio in your house. Which I want to say is fucking immaculate.

Y'all had fucking Y'all had rubies in them bitches dog be happy right now. Just be happy. It's coming. I'm happy I don't know first of all, but it's coming. First of all, let me just see this right here in the gym You ever performed for the Cowboys? Yeah, every time they play Have my Texas Every time I perform for the Texas perform for the Texas for sure. Have you ever performed for the Cowboys? Every time they go I've never physically performed for the Cowboys. But let me ask you a question Who won the Super Bowl and called you right up? You just said one more time for me E-A-G-L-E-S-E-O E-A-S-E-O Shut up the bubble man. You gonna kick me out pop. This ex-house though pop. You did it on the street man. 15 minutes man Who is that? The Cowboys Yeah, I can't even argue with that. Who is that? But how do you feel your music is synced A-Ware? That shit is A-Ware and you independent And that independent money different ain't it? Man, I'm just able I'm blessed to be able to take care of my kids Look at this. You let me just tell you something. You want to know When niggas is getting that money When they give answers like that because you gotta understand when niggas first getting gated you like this they got money on the arm It's A lot of niggas do they they showing that shit? When they get that money, I would feel having them I'm just gonna hit that you know guy can let me put my kids through profits Niggas just told me half hour go off camera. I got a room's race on each I said damn twice shit, man. I don't I'm I never drive it. Okay But you know, I appreciate the humbleness on camera, you know, that's just me though.
