(rock music)
(beeping) - Music by Blake!
Yeah!
(beeping) (spitting)
(beeping)
Woo!
(beeping) What's up Los Angeles?
Los Angeles!
(beeping) (yelling)
I hate myself, this is so--
What?
(sighs)
(playful music)
- Hey, Blake.
Oh. - Hey, what's up man?
- Sit, sit, sit, I thought. - You sure?
- Yeah. - Hey, what's up?
How are you?
- Just a little confused.
I thought when they said Blake,
I thought it was Blake Shelton.
It's fine.
This is less exciting, but it's cool.
- Yeah, it's--
Well, I--
- I was super excited.
I came in just for this, and now I have a ball hog.
- Yeah, well everybody has their style, you know?
- Yeah.
- So, I'm sure you heard the news.
I'm retiring, and I'm now doing music.
- You retired from basketball?
- No, no, no, I retired from comedy,
and now I'm doing music.
- When did you start doing comedy?
- Well, I started doing comedy to change the world.
Did that.
Now I want to do music to change the world,
and I figured you could be the guy that could help me
do music and also just find my groove.
- I've been in the music business long enough
to know what it takes to be a star.
You need talent,
motivation,
work ethic.
All of these things
Blake has none of.
- I was just hoping to make a big song that
changed the world and then maybe ride off into the sunset,
like I did with comedy.
- You want to be a one-hit wonder?
(snaps) - Yes!
I like that.
That's good.
I like that.
- And you really have no musical talent whatsoever.
- No.
No, I don't.
I'd love just a little bit of help.
- Is that why you're dressed like this?
- Yes.
Actually, traditionally a lot of great musicians
have dressed like this.
Steven Tyler, Lenny Kravitz,
Sting,
Ed Sheeran, Drake.
- You're just naming any
random artist that comes to your head.
- Stevie Wonder.
- That's probably the only ring
you've ever worn in your life.
- Wow, okay.
That's hurtful.
- Why don't you sing?
- Three, two, three, two.
♪ I'm in love with the shape of you ♪
(claps) (mumbles)
♪ Last night you were in my room ♪
I'm in love with your.
(vocalizes) - That's enough.
That's enough.
- Do you have any hit songs
anywhere that I could just get my hands on?
- No, I don't.
I don't have any hit songs.
- Scoots.
Scootie.
- Please don't touch me. - Scootie, Scootie.
- Don't touch me. - It's me.
- Don't. - It's me.
- I really am feeling very uncomfortable.
- Scootie.
You don't have any hit songs on that laptop?
- No.
- Right now, we're being like this,
and I need us to be like this.
- Don't do that. - You know what I mean?
I need you and me to be-- - Don't.
(slap) Don't do that.
This has been great.
- It has been great.
- My day is ruined.
I'm gonna go now. - I don't know.
- Take care.
Good luck to you.
- I actually don't need you, man.
- You need a lot more than me, buddy.
- God, I didn't know he could hear me.
I don't need you.
- Still hear you!
(groovy keyboard music) (beatboxing)
That was beautiful first of all.
- Thank you. - I think the reason
I came to you, because,
first of all, I'm a comedy guy.
You're a comedy guy.
You happen to be very good at music.
- That mic's not on, okay?
- I know but it's a musical thing.
Alright.
- Okay, so.
Well, thank you, and I'd be glad to help, you know.
First thing we gotta do is figure out your thing, you know.
- Right.
- Who are you talking to?
- Hm?
- It's just us here.
- If you play something-
if you play a popular song, I can just go.
I go to karaoke and my friends are like,
"Blake, dude."
- I do old school.
Earth, Wind, and Fire?
- Beautiful.
That's the name of the song?
- No, that's the name of the group.
- Yep.
A three and-
- Okay. - Okay, you go.
- I'm bringing it over here.
(groovy keyboard music)
(laughs) Earth.
Alright, you know what, I don't know that song.
- No, you don't, at all. - I thought I knew that song.
I thought. - That wasn't--
What I would love to do now is just freestyle.
- Yes.
- Try it? - You freestyle rap?
- Yeah. - Oh, that'd be dope!
- Right. - Let's hit one.
- Right now?
- Yeah.
- Oh no, I'd have to go write it and write it down.
- That's not freestyle.
That's regular rap.
- Well, tomato tomato.
- That's not how that's used.
- Gimme a beat like (beatboxes).
Lead it like a (beatboxes)
(beatboxes)
- Yeah, me, my boy, Craig, Rob, Benson.
You know what, that's stupid.
- Yeah, yeah. - I should write it down.
- Too hard, too hard, too hard.
Move your mouth back a little bit.
No, no, close your mouth like you're blowing.
Don't move your fingers.
Just blow.
(flute plays note)
Ahh!
Yes!
Okay.
(guitar strumming) - I'm a basketball man.
- Do you know any chords?
- Yeah, you know what? (guitar hits ground)
(strums guitar)
(guitar colliding with floor) - Blake!
What are you,
what are you doing?
Why do you wanna do this so bad?
- I wanna change the world, man.
- You wanna change the world.
That's very generic.
How do you wanna change the world?
What are you talking about?
- I'm just saying music is something very important to me.
It's not just something I do for show.
- What do you wanna change about the world?
- I wanna change bad things.
- What bad things?
- Traffic.
- Call me when you
know what you wanna do.
- Let me ask you.
So, you'll help when I figure it out?
- Think about it.
- I've been thinking about it.
Doubters will come into your lives,
but one man can change the world.
- [Man] The mic's not on!
