So first I want to say thank you so much for coming out.

I think this is hot ones.

Fourth ever complex con.

But this one to me, it's the most special, because it's here in Chicago, Illinois, a place that I consider home.

Let's make some noise for the best damn city in the world.

All right, so today's guest.

In addition, toe headlining the weekends event.

He's a platinum selling artist in his latest album, Death Race for Love debuted at number one on the Billboard charts earlier this year.

Let's make some noise for Chicago's own juice world.

You'll be on this side.

I'll take this side and it's a time crunch, so we'll just jump right into it with our first wing, which is the classic.

Started the handle.

How you doing?

What's your mindset like right now?

I heard about you.

Start drunk, Eliminated.

Now that's the way to do it.

Code it.

So right there who?

All right, so I want to start off with your gear head side because I know that you have a garage that's full of motorbikes and even your latest project, the cover art.

It pays homage to that demolition derby Video game franchise.

Twisted metal.

Have you ever suffered road rash or any kind of injury messing around on those things?

Hello?

No, no, no, it's not how you That's what.

I ain't going out like that.

I slipped.

I just had a mouthful.

You, Sam, so knows, polite the two first.

You know, um, we're riding up and down the street, and there's, like, this part of the street that is not really a sharp turn, but is kind of got to slow down for, you know, a little tricky.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And there is no girl outside all my homies outside I'm trying to show up so I hit the hit the tire and the bike stays right here, but I go flying off and I'm dance first.

And it was all flooding stuff.

It could be a dangerous game.

All right, well, there it is.

Are you ready to move on to wing number two?

Might as well.

Yellow.

It is the sauce.

Bay Wing.

So what?

It's called sauce, babe.

Oh, I know what you said and you're right.

So wait, wait, wait.

His rappers really all here crying over these.

Well, we're only the second wing in Let's all remember that Jewish World said this.

You remember.

So a lot of people obsess over sneakers or jewelry.

But here at first we feast.

We're more interested in which rappers have the rarest, most exotic serial collections.

Have you ever had that cereal That's just powdered hostess doughnuts like I want to give?

So that's a classic one.

And I know a lot of stuff I fell in love with.

That said, I was eating like every day, Flight two weeks, probably and then off the topic of cereal but still on food.

I know that you're Chicago guy.

Are you a shark's guy?

Are you a Harold?

Harold Starks is like the you know, like this facade.

She and his vices.

Sharks is like the first verse I do where you're going.

S.

P.

A excellent food take from Juice World.

Are you ready to move on third Wing Shack?

Wanda's huh?

It's good.

It's good.

It was not not tested yet, so it's sticking to the topic of Chicago.

I think that it's only right here a complex con that we shot out.

Chief Keith, what does that name mean to you?

So C o I mean, this is crazy toe.

See that somebody is shooting a video with a friend's on a block where they're from end up, you know, being on charts and going platinum.

Having songs with, you know, kind, you're saying, right?

And me being a music head that I was and still am I studied the stuff like losing my life for a long time.

And then Chicago is obviously left and enduring imprint on hip hop from the sounds to these new flows that have eventually taken over the whole genre.

So on the topic of Chicago, hip hop was your top five Dead or alive man Top five, their love, Kanye, I got to give it a chance to modern day spot.

The wings might not make him sweat, but right.

Sorry.

Questions.

Right.

Um I se kai a chance m c juice.

You know that ISS He's the only the emcee of old school embassy.

The only person ever be Eminem in the rap battle from not mistaking.

There you go.

Something That gypsy juice I mean?

So far.

So from what I understand, maybe not.

It's my show now.

Uh, uh, Welcome.

The hot ones featuring.

So from what I understand, you travel with three pieces of luggage.

One for your clothes, One for your sneakers than one for your video games.

What is the mobile gaming setup, like for juice world?

Um, set up with me praying at the TV.

Got a CD of my core, right?

Three.

You don't talk about, uh, older system, the red, white and yellow course.

Which video game do you think has the best soundtrack of all time?

Tony Hope Tony Hart Far.

Yeah, Tony, Hard.

I got a question for you.

Sure.

So I heard that you carry around three pieces of luggage for your clothes.

Fact one for your shoes and 1/3 1 for your hot sauces.

You have to have it ready.

You know, if you run into juice World, that complex con you have to have that third bag ready is that you can pop up the show for the people you know.

Told dot is Marshall.

That's that's how it goes.

All right, Are you ready to move on to the half way point?

Here we are with those Kellyanne taste number five light work like work.

All right, so here at the halfway mark, the hot ones fans here, you know, we do a recurring segment called Explain that, Graham Juice World.

We've done a deep dive on your INSTAGRAM pulled interesting pictures that need more context.

I love doing this that complex con because we have monitors that makes this feel like a real production.

It's so exciting.

Gonna put me on blast.

So let's put up the first picture.

Is you throwing out the first pitch at a White Sox game?

I actually threw out the first pitch at yesterday's Cubs game, airmailed it.

Arum airmailed it and hit a staffer and hit a staffer.

So I was wondering if you have any notes.

How did this go for you?

Uh, actually grew up playing baseball, so And me too.

But you know what?

It's a different story when you get that first name.

I pitched towards the end of my baseball career and I had speed, but I had no control.

I throw two strikes and then, like, get all up in my head and head on doing the faces.

It happens like that sometimes I know they'd be like that, don't you?

All right, let's pull up the next picture.

Here you are with the Japanese face mask.

Can you break down the skincare routine once and for all?

For the people here.

A complex?

Yeah, I got one word.

Exfoliate exfoliated words to live by.

From juice rolled.

And let's pull up the final picture.

Here you are playing chess.

Are you a chest guy?

Because you do have that song chess king.

I just really I wouldn't want them to do, is they could just sit in the classroom, just No, I'm saying just like and like, I couldn't learn that way.

So there's some kids.

I thought they knew it.

And every time we get into like a little knock is getting hard vacations.

You settle down and start beating everybody in chest, they call me.

You'll never do your homework.

You just lost to somebody and never do a homework assignment.

A life.

Checkmate.

Jack made check and mate.

All right, juice rolled.

You ready to move on?

War ready, sir?

All right.

This one, we have Detroit Hellfire.

That is a male, huh?

What?

I'm good.

Hot.

So you have a reputation for feel like you struggling, though through you know, I've been doing this now, many for a long, long time.

90 Supposed to be the guru, right?

Yeah.

But you know what?

You put those city miles on you.

Eventually the car starts to break down a little bit.

Yeah, So you have a reputation for being a beast in the studio from doing these one take freestyles to completing albums in a matter of days with these manic from dusk till dawn studio sessions.

And then, you know, critics They have a lot to say about soundcloud rappers, but when you break it down, it really is like the best sinker swim platform in music right now.

What do critics get wrong?

In your opinion, when they pigeonhole, either the artists are the songs that pop on sound club.

Um, I think when they go wrong is a person may make a song or a project.

And anybody who's criticizing it takes that song or project or whatever.

No piece of art that waas and then label that artists say, OK, all that music is going to sound like this audience, you know, just making an assumption based on one piece of art there artists is somebody that expresses themselves and not necessarily in one way, you know, like me.

For example, I could make rap song right and and within the same hour, have somebody set up a guitar, hop on drums and make something that sounds like it came from.

Oh, no.

Warp Tour 2005.

No, I think that's where critics are wrong.

All right, Juice, roller.

You ready to move on to number seven Trinidad Scorpion from Wilshire chili far?

Yeah, that sounds like it's gonna be a problem like that.

Oh, you know?

Yeah.

Oh, So we've talked about video games in your Chicago roots, but I want to take a wing to explore some of those larger influences of juice world like for sure.

And maybe you could just think about this while you take down the lemonade.

Are you still into Percy Jackson novels?

Yeah.

Um, I started reading like they're great.

Come put him down.

After that, they'll go Fuck for the uninitiated.

Why is Percy Jackson better than Harry Potter?

Oh, no.

Hold on.

I So look hey, particle look.

Intimidating the certain people cause, like, a big Siri's.

And you kind of got to read a little bit to get into it.

You know?

Percy Jackson action.

Start right away.

Oh, my said 10.

Why do you think that there's such a strong connection to wrap an animator for artists like you and Denzel Curry?

The interest the connection to it goes much deeper than Dragon Ball Z.

Yeah.

I mean, it's part of my escape as a kid, you know?

So it's always hold a special place in my heart.

I can tell you my enemy don't know.

Okay.

Shit.

Um you ever heard of my hero academia?

No.

No.

It's like a high school for superheroes.

I want to maybe do that, but ah, high school for, like, super villas.

I like the sound of that.

I like the sound of that high school for super villains.

Let's make some noise for juice world going into the bomb, Which for the hot ones fans, here is the moment they've been waiting for.
