[Intro]

Cousin too

Going down a road in Maine


[Verse]

I was at Dunkin' Donuts the other day, my phone vibrate

I pulled it out my Bullhead jeans and said, "Hey"

All were involved, it was a conference call

With both my managers and one of 'em asked me if I was standin' up

I replied, "Nah, I'm sittin' in the whip

Waiting on this iced coffee so I could take a sip"

And the other one asked if I had a minute

I could tell something serious was coming from their lips

Meanwhile, at the drive-thru

The cashier's eyes encountered my two, she recognized

Local celebrity, "Hi dude," to whom no one is similar

They freaked out a little bit and asked me for my signature

And simultaneously, they had cut to the chase

On the phone they talked to M. Ron, and they

They, meaning Universal Republic

Had decided Spizzy Spose was a artist they were done with

... I'm like, "Huh?"

That single blowed up

I mean, M. Ron still has that plaque with gold dust

We did 16,000 in Syracuse, they showed up

And they were all chanting, go us

Later they gave us free weed that we broke up, I mean

Lyrically everything I've done was cold stuff

I thought the record was sewed up, it was coming out, no ifs and no buts

I mean we had John lay the dope cuts

I made the verse so tough, every track we made was robust

Fucking ill-ass shit, that cold cut

... "So what?"

That night, Dustin told me that he left the band

I left band practice then and I texted Cam

I went home and talked to my girl and my daughter

I sketched a epitaph on the pen and pad and laughed


[Hook]

Me and you

Mark Curdo, Spencer Albee too

And that record label on the eighth floor

Got me still slamming Nissan doors

Me and you

M. Ron and Monte Lipman too

And the record label on the eighth floor

I don't really fuck with them no more

Me and you

My girl and my daughter too

We gon' be alright fo' sho'

Even if we in them Volvo doors

Me and you

Cam Groves and my whole damn crew

P. Dank, we gon' be alright

We could ride from the morn' till the night


[Outro]

For anything else that year but that song right there

Because it started here

That is, uh, I just need to check the facts on this thing

But, uh, I'm still thinking that that is probably the biggest song ever to come out of the state of Maine

Over 800,000 copies of that single have been sold since 2010

And it all started right here, on a show I'm very honored to host called Spinout

First time it ever got played, and uh, the first people to support that guy, um, was WCYY and Spinout

And uh, that's how he launched, and what happened was unreal

Major label deal, major label bone heads

Major label deal and uh, he's got a song that is getting close towards a million copies sold

Unbelievable, and he's so much more than that song

Spose with "I'm Awesome"

Spose actually about to put out I think his fourth release here, before Christmas

Four records, just this year alone

Unreal man, he don't need no, friggin' big label

It was a nice moment

I was lucky to spend a lot of time with him throughout that year and travel

Um, with him throughout the year and seeing amazing things

And he always brought the spotlight back to Maine

And always brought it back to this radio station for giving him the opportunity and launching him

The launch pad worldwide for Spizzy Spose, right here, WCYY

So cheers to Wells, Maine, and cheers to all the P. Dank family and friends out there

What an awesome thing, man
