after you make money you get rich and all of that [stuff] right like what really matters after that like like it's boring being around mad rich people like that [stuff] is whack not even going to lie like that [stuff] is trash

like it's like literally like that [stuff] is like a like whatever they advertize and all that [stuff] is trash what is the worst part about being around rich people it's no swag it's no energy it's no

sauce it's like what kind of rich people are we talking about a lot of rich people don't got no sauce like most rich people you know like most entertainers is sauceless what does it mean to have sauce that's why I feel like a lot of

rich people buy art and clothes and [stuff] because like you can buy into somebody's sauce it's like I'm going get this this George condo because like he put his soul on a canvas and I lost mine so like I can hang somebody else's it's true

though for real I know God [damn] I don't want to be that guy yeah it's like you done did so much [stuff] for money that you like you kind of lost yourself in it and it's like the best thing you could do is

show show somebody else's Soul yo listen to this Jame Brown record like he's bearing his soul in this record but where's yours you feel does that is that the same for fashion once you get a ton of money you can buy all these designer

clothes, but it doesn't mean you have good style for sure. Like five, six, seven and eight, 10 Shore. Interesting that's what people do. People, they just buy. That's what I'm saying. These are just the buyers. Like it's like

they're not tapped into themselves, so they have to buy. They just buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy. And it's like when you have the sauce, you don't have to buy cuz you're tapped into yourself. Yeah, you don't have to like, and

buying is like a form of running. You will always be running like that. [ __ ] is going to get tiring. Why? Because you're going to keep buying, and then people are going to only keep loving you because of something else, cuz you're

chasing that something else, and you're wearing that something else, and you're going to get tired of that fake love. So it's like love yourself more and buy less. I needed that. Thank you very much for I mean, a little bit. Yes, I didn't get that energy

from I don't know like I, um, maybe it's not, maybe my motives around like what I like. I hoard a little bit, but like I like buying, like I like buying art. You did get into buying art recently. I did. Wait, hold on. Like yeah, I'm an art

dude, like who do you collect? I mean dude, nothing. I mean like, like uh, I who's your favorite artist? I mean like I have like, they could be basics. Like I don't know, like I have a couple Brainwash pieces, you know. Okay, like I'm a pop

contemporary guy okay so I don't know I like and and but to your point of like I I definitely have a soul I think I'm more looking just to fill up something nice on my wall yeah but that's what I'm saying everybody has a soul but some people are

not tapped into theirs that's true like you can lose your soul and then you got to find it and you got to tap into the source to find your soul I think I honestly like you know but you can lose it and then find it again like have you

ever come close to maybe possibly thinking you were losing this sauce no because when I whenever I thought about anything even close to that I understood that I had to do some soul searching and it's like not soul searching as far as like I don't know

what my soul is but I had to grow that yeah it's like growing it's just like oh you still doing that like that was like five years ago like you got to grow and and that could be like a bunch of different things yeah it's like

you can be doing something doesn't mean that you're not in tune with yourself or your soul it's just that like you yourself know that that [ __ ] ain't right cuz that [ __ ] is old so when are you going to grow up and do something

different what could be around people cuz you could be lying to yourself yes and that's when you whenever you lie to yourself it's like you [ __ ] pushing your soul away and that could apply to a lot of different things people places

work I mean a ton of [ __ ] everything literally yeah I mean is evolving I I don't know if evolving is the right word but going from ASAP Ferg to Ferg a form of growth in in your career everybody always called me Ferg even in the mob

crew together so it's always been Ferg it's just gone back to Ferg like that's all it is yeah exactly and I feel like it's just a new time it's New Era it's an exciting time for me to to show people

ASAP Ferg Says It's Boring Being Around Rich People

Zach Sang Show Clips

Being around very rich people can be boring and unsatisfying.

Many wealthy people lack genuine 'sauce' or energy.

Wealthy individuals often buy art and clothes to compensate for a lack of personal authenticity.

Acquiring possessions is seen as a way to buy into someone else's soul or style.

The importance of self-discovery and authenticity

Focusing too much on wealth can lead to a loss of self.

Material possessions like designer clothes don't equate to genuine style or self-expression.

People who lack self-awareness often overcompensate by buying things.

Constantly buying is a form of running away from oneself and leads to superficial relationships.

Prioritizing self-love and reducing excessive buying is encouraged.

Personal experiences with art collecting and self-expression

The speaker discusses their personal art collection, focusing on pop contemporary artists.

The speaker clarifies that their art collecting is about filling a space rather than solely expressing their soul.

The speaker shares their perspective on losing and regaining connection with their authentic self.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of self-reflection and growth to maintain authenticity.

Engaging in activities doesn't necessarily mean being out of touch with oneself; it's about recognizing when something is no longer aligned with personal growth.

Lying to oneself pushes one's soul away, impacting various aspects of life.
