That's what happened, so exactly. Then 257 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: let us start coming in. 258 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 5: That's when wait a minute, you're getting letters personally from 259 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 5: parents or let us from record labels. 260 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: Are coming in. 261 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 5: You know, parents, parents writing you directly.

Eighty five. 269 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, what happened, No, no, And the only reason why 270 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 2: is because we were from Miami, and it was that 271 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 2: it was a forbidden thing.

You 552 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 5: don't have nothing, you know what I'm saying. So where 553 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 5: did the freedom of speech play come from? Because you 554 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 5: could have went back and forth and said, no, I 555 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 5: can say what I want to say this my album. 556 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 5: But you hit him with the freedom of speech exactly. 557 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 5: You hit them with the political like you use it 558 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 5: against them. But you know the law.

So 569 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 2: I'm going all the way up to the Supreme Court 570 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 2: with that case. At the same time, so I'm getting 571 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: as I'm going through each one of the cases, I'm 572 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 2: always wanting to know exactly what's going on. Highest transparent. 573 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 2: I don't just lawyers do your business, keep it moving, 574 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 2: you know. I'm always going to be involved in the 575 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 2: actual pressure. And so that that whole case was about 576 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 2: free speech, whether you were able to say that you 577 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: want to say on records, whether you were able to 578 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: uh do parodies. 579 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: You know. 580 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 2: If I'd have lost that case, whatever, everything that you 581 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 2: see on the internet right now, which is considered as 582 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: intellectual property would have been out. All the the you know, 583 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 2: things that you see on Saturday Night Live would have 584 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 2: been dead. People wouldn't have been a comedians wouldn't have 585 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 2: been able to make fun do parodies of other other 586 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 2: people and all that. So it was a real significant case, 587 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: all for some puss off of some puss. I said, well, 588 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 2: you know, as we look at it right now, you 589 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 2: know the world was going in a different direction. 590 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 5: And I was keeping it right there.

You always continue to evolve, You always 1142 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,040 Speaker 5: continue to grow, You always continue to step into other 1143 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 5: lanes that might not be as comfortable for you, but 1144 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 5: you set a tone in the pattern of being comfortable 1145 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 5: being uncomfortable. You know what I'm saying, And that's what 1146 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,479 Speaker 5: you've done, and that's why guys like myself can step 1147 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 5: out on faith and have conversations with mayors and politicians 1148 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 5: and different people because we understand how far and the 1149 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 5: impact that that can have in the city. But you 1150 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 5: started at first the political side, because that was the 1151 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 5: hardest side for me to really sit down with politicians, 1152 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:18,919 Speaker 5: because I don't feel like they might have my best 1153 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 5: interest at heart. I don't feel like they might have 1154 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 5: the people's best interests at heart. But I was wrong 1155 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 5: because once you sit down with a lot of them 1156 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:26,440 Speaker 5: and then you understand that they want some of the 1157 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 5: same things that you want. But it takes like the 1158 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 5: faith of sitting down. But you did that first. How 1159 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 5: did you get into the politics and sitting down with 1160 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 5: the mayors and the commissioners and having just the confidence 1161 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 5: to have these conversations with these people. Because you did 1162 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 5: it first, we was able to do it after you 1163 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 5: would That's not natural for us. It's not natural for 1164 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 5: us somebody from Liberty City go sit down in the mayor's. 1165 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 1: Office exactly exactly exactly.
