[E] I was like, hey man, I need some help with this dance.
And he's like, all right, I got you.
And he starts going to like the super advanced version.
I'm like, what?
Break it down.
Yeah, I said, hmm, I know you see that dance trophy over
there, but that's not because I'm a good dancer.
And he broke it down for me.
You good?
Great.
Man, you did amazing.
You were blowing up.
Like, blow?
Do you, I always wonder when something starts to blow,
do you feel it?
Or do you just hear people telling you about it?
Well, it comes from people telling me.
But it's funny, because you can tell when the world is
on the same accord.
It's a feeling.
I don't know what that means, but I'm on the line.
I feel the energy, people loving it, growing with it.
And you live in Atlanta?
Yep, Atlanta, Georgia.
Look at this guy.
Where'd this song come from?
Like, how'd it start?
I started with a lap steel.
And then after I played the lap steel loop, I added beatboxing.
Then I added 808s.
I added a snare.
And I was just like, oh, we on the song.
[C#m] So it was like super traditional country.
Then you started adding the hip hop.
And then what about the dance?
How do you pick a dance move whenever you're, like,
how do you know to put your elbow,
[G#] put your hand on your side?
Where'd all that come from?
My auntie Anira used to do a lot of dancing.
So I knew, like, the dance steps.
And I was just like, I need to put a couple of these things
in this one record, because people are familiar with them.
Then you know I had to add that butterfly in there.
And we can all do the butterfly.
Exactly.
Look at the video.
I'm even trying to do the butterfly.
I was reading some stuff about you.
It says your musical influences, at least a couple of them,
are people like Johnny Cash and also Outkast.
Definitely.
Like, talk about that for a second,
because that's that, you're, like,
in that space where hip hop and country,
because you're from the South, where there's a lot of country.
But you're also from a place where hip hop is very prevalent.
Yeah, Johnny Cash was, you know,
someone I grew up listening to.
And as I became of age, I found out what he stood for.
And then I was just even more of a fan.
I was just like, oh, my God.
Like, this is the type of revolution the world needs.
And only every once in 100 years,
or maybe every once in 50, 20 years,
comes a man like Johnny Cash.
I was watching your tutorial video
where you're teaching people how to do the dance here.
And is [E] that your trailer you're in front of?
My trailer?
Yeah.
Oh, no, it's a hood near Six Flags in Atlanta.
My homie, Caviar, does a lot of my footage
and photographs and stuff.
He's taking the pictures for all my EP album, everything.
And I drove past the trailer park,
and I was just like, [B] Caviar, I want to film right here
in the trailer park.
This brings me back to those memories.
He said, all right, cool.
We packed up the camera, and we went down there.
And you [A] call your music Trailer Trap.
Trailer Trap.
[B] Trailer park music meets trap music.
Bridge the Gap, [E] Trailer Trap.
Here we go.
Come and do the two step in cowboy boogie.
You know, [D] you're going to make so much money doing
this dance with people now.
Like, I got in while it was cheap.
I got in while it was like, free 99.
I was like, Blanco, come over to the house.
And he did.
And he shows up in his car.
What kind of car is that?
A 65 GTO.
[G] And he beats me to my house.
And he's getting out of the car.
And I'm like, Blanco, what's up?
And he's pulling into.
And then we're going to take a picture after.
And he's like, you can stand on the car.
And I'm like, I'm standing on your car?
Your car's awesome.
Blanco Brown's here.
Wait, you get nominated for a Grammy?
Is that true?
Childish Gambino, because of the internet.
I did Telegraph.
And you work with like, Gambino, Yoko Fergie?
I did Myth Moneywear.
You did?
Why do they call you The Ear?
The Ear came from my ability to listen to songs
and tell you exactly what they're missing.
Like, you don't need to run it back one time through.
I know exactly where the harmonies need to go.
And I know exactly where it needs to build
in order to keep on growing.
The Ear.
Wow.
I wish I had a cool nickname like that.
They call me like, the Pinkie Toe.
For no reason.
Kane Brown, you work with Kane Brown?
Yep.
What'd you do with Kane?
Last minute, late night.
I actually worked on his first EP.
And we recorded like, maybe 12 songs, 12, 13 songs
with Polo the Dunn back in Atlanta.
Then we came to Nashville to cut a song called Riot
and a few records.
Blanco Brown is here.
And I guess a lot of people wonder,
because you have a whole EP out now.
So, not just to get up, [E] which is on repeat for me.
But like, Georgia Powell, [C#] there you go.
Georgia Powell.
[D#m] [C#] Yeah.
The Jam.
Yeah.
[D#m] [C#]
[F#] [C#] I like it that you [A#m] sing along with your songs.
Because if I had songs, I would do that too.
I'd sing along with all of them.
I'm your biggest fan.
I was so happy.
Let me tell you, Lainey Wilson is an artist who,
as soon as her music out, she's up here too.
Like, she is so good.
Yeah, she's amazing.
She was in a YouTube video.
So I hit her up and I was like,
hey, Lainey, show me how to do this.
She was like, well, let me just call Blanco.
And I was like, all right.
And so we lined it up, they came over, we shot it.
It was really fantastic to hang out with you.
Like, you're a real dude.
Thank you so much.
In the land of sometimes you don't know what's real
and what's not, like, you're a real dude.
I root for you.
I love the song, obviously.
We've been on it for a couple weeks.
I dance alone in my bathroom to it.
The whole thing.
And this has been one of the most fun segments we've done
in a long time.
Like, you think [G] about, you did Sam Cooke,
you did Johnny Cash, then you did Blanco.
Yeah, Blanco, there he is!
[C#] Thank you much.

hey, Lainey, show me how to do this.
She was like, well, let me just call Blanco.
And I was like, all right.
And so we lined it up, they came over, we shot it.
It was really fantastic to hang out with you.
Like, you're a real dude.
Thank you so much.
In the land of sometimes you don't know what's real
and what's not, like, you're a real dude.
I root for you.
I love the song, obviously.
We've been on it for a couple weeks.
I dance alone in my bathroom to it.
The whole thing.
And this has been one of the most fun segments we've done
in a long time.
Like, you think [G] about, you did Sam Cooke,
you did Johnny Cash, then you did Blanco.
Yeah, Blanco, there he is!
[C#] Thank you much.

Man, we got people just showing up with their friends
and their friends are also-
I know, can y'all come back?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They already epic, so, you know,
I just wanted to have greatness around me.
I appreciate y'all.
I appreciate everybody in the room for real.
There he is, Blanco Brown.
Thank you so much for coming by.
We're gonna [E] keep playing the song.
