00:00Go ahead, I'll get set.
00:02Keith Burrell.
00:03Hey, how you doing, man?
00:04You know what would be cool is if we told my story with Lego pieces.
00:10Seriously?
00:11Yes.
00:12Lego.
00:13Just be open.
00:18When I was a kid, I knew I was different.
00:21And people would say, oh, that's an odd child.
00:24And that crushed my spirit.
00:28But I loved music.
00:29It was mesmerizing to me.
00:31I would see beautiful hues of light cascading.
00:35I just thought that's what all black kids did.
00:37Stared into the speaker like, whoa.
00:42Music was just coming out of me.
00:45I need to show the world what I can do.
00:47Hi, Burrell.
00:48I need help on this rap.
00:49Yes, sir.
00:50It's pretty simple.
00:51Just let it bounce.
00:52He just went in the room and freestyled it.
00:54It's Teddy.
00:55Ready with the one, two, check.
00:56All I cared about was making my own music.
00:58But people just said, no.
01:00I wasn't ready.
01:07This song is ridiculous.
01:09Who did that?
01:10Pharrell.
01:11Pharrell.
01:12Pharrell.
01:17Wow.
01:20My imagination would run super wild.
01:23Drop it like it's hot.
01:25I was always a bad gangster.
01:27But you brought out a smile.
01:29Hell yeah.
01:33It might seem crazy what I'm about to say.
01:37That feels great.
01:41I firmly believe that everybody has talent, beauty, and potential.
01:46Keep opening our eyes to a whole different world.
01:50Keep opening our eyes to a whole different perspective.
01:53Thank you, Burrell.
02:02Holy moly, guacamole.
02:03Legendary story, yeah.
02:14Man, this is going to be a Lego movie, bro.
02:19Hey.
