I had to do a study 36 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 1: on you, so I went and I look. And the 37 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: craziest thing is if I wouldn't compare any artists to 38 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: a comedian, the first comedian I would compare you Tuesday Chappelle. 39 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: Yeah that's funny because that's the honey.

Worked together on something already now, just like 44 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, he lives out in the bunny, so I'd 45 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: have been out there a couple of times, you feel me, 46 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: because I'm facing the same thing. I'm really be working 47 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: around like so not just interesting because you know. The 48 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: funny thing about Dave is like they have a comedian, 49 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: but they don't really tell jokes, you know what I mean. 50 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: He did with the Truth Commentary, man, but he had 51 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: always been like that when we were younger, right, and uh, 52 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: I'm only seven, so like what's your pel showing? Like 53 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: that came out? That was the only thing I really know. 54 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: But she was like, my daddy has like like my 55 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 1: pops before he went down to stuff, he had like 56 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: Eddie Murphys. And She's like, but I ain't think it 57 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: was funny like that because I was too young. Yeah, 58 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: it's just it's like now down that it was hilarious 59 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: looking back when I was younger. Yeah, I get that. 60 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: I'll get that a couple of times, definitely. So let 61 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: me ask you. I'm buncing around a little bit um. 62 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: You originally started on a major on depth jam. Right, 63 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: what made you say that? You know what depth jam? 64 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go and do my own fans, We'll see 65 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: what's right. So you already know how that type of 66 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: ship work. Yeah, I know it's for the fans. Yeah, 67 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: you know whatever. Like so it's just universal. You feel 68 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: yourself like I'm on there, I was on death Cham 69 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: for a long time. Uh, it just didn't make sense. 70 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: You feel me in a And it's not that it 71 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: didn't make sense because I was sucking up, but they 72 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: was sucked up. It's just everybody want different things, you 73 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So now we got the little 74 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: situation via motown. But it's like it's you feel me. 75 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: So it's like when you think about the idea of 76 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: a record company. They basically they give you the loan 77 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: and they front the distribution to make your CDs and 78 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: basically talked you triple with it, but you don't et 79 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: there are no fucking CDs nothing, And then we still 80 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: kind of get tricked a little bit because like we 81 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: still kind of falling for the same tricks. It's like 82 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: it's like a vanity playing the sense like oh man, 83 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: this motherfucker. Like it's something like nigga like Tyler, Right, 84 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: the honey just saw the hundred fifty thousand albums, right, 85 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: He didn't sell a hundred fee thou abums. He sold 86 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: billions of straight millions. Because they're not going to tell 87 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: these niggas, oh man, you had millions of billions of 88 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: people listening to you in three days. They're not gonna 89 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: say that, because then you're gonna be like, damn if 90 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm able to do that, but I don't need them, 91 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: you feel what I'm saying. Like, and essentially, when we 92 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: think about press in general, like you got y'all, you 93 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: got you got Gilly and Wallow, you got the Joe, 94 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: it's a lot of people that's taken out because when 95 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: I was younger, for me, they would the press will 96 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: be like, oh man, tell us about the streets and 97 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: being a nigger, and it's like what y'all talking about. 98 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: So at this point in time, like just the whole 99 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: ship is changing. But I think it's you know, in 100 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: artists their own press now because social media allows you 101 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: to do your own press. Yeah, but it's like essentially 102 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: it's this ship is like the magazines and she's like 103 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: that turning the pictures like pressure this pictures like you 104 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: can post the pictures and then oh you put oh 105 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: I was in g QUE and this advantity place people 106 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: feel like you're popping because you was in g Q 107 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: New York time. Y'all that you can post the same 108 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: pictures without that tagging. It's not gonna give people that 109 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: kind of a it's all the vanity playing on me. 110 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: Gotta it's smart. But what death cham was? You want 111 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: Steve Bartle's I was on Steve Bartos. Cameron Quaker was 112 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: there Steve when Phasal was there, and and Paul I 113 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: was there from Paul because they're from Tony twelve thirteen 114 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: to like two years ago. Well, I would think that 115 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: Paul Wilsenberg, being your lyrical content, would be a person 116 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: that had you back. I don't know if he didn't know. Well, 117 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: it's not even about having a back, it's it's like 118 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: it's out of the label's hands in a sense, because 119 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: if I'm a fan, right and I digest it in 120 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: a certain manner, and the way that things changed so fast, 121 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: you can't possibly expect the label to be able to 122 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: move with all that infrastructure, the way that things after moon. 123 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: So it's not like they're not trying, like they're doing 124 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: what you for you what they do for everybody. Like 125 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: it's not like artists is going to and being like, 126 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: oh man, I want this press for all with this, 127 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: they're putting everybody on Jimmy family. But they're trying, but 128 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: it's like something just don't add up for the kind 129 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: of artists you are. You kind of got to be 130 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: more creative nowadays, because it's not to the point of 131 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: where you know, you gotta poster in the CD and 132 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: they don't know about you and just gotta go from there. 133 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: So it ain't like they were trying. But it's like 134 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: ship it is what it is to a certain extent. Now, 135 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: I've read somewhere that you said people that were ax 136 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: body spreading old spice or racist. Yeah, that's dusty, that's like, 137 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: that's like, that's like, that's like the white worlds they 138 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: was given man up. That's where the white boys that 139 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: lived by the beach four chance nineth chance don't get 140 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: caught over there either, don't. So for a long time 141 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: I really didn't understand Long Beach because I'm never tell 142 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: you why we went introduced to n w a right, 143 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: get straight out of Compton, and our mind Compton is 144 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: Calie and you're from Compton originally, right, My and my 145 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: parents are Compton, and I'll be like three minutes away.

So he got out his 388 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: little situation when when uh, I was working with him 389 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: a little bit. But I ain't never really talked to 390 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: Tyler because I'm I'm more calm than them. You feel me. 391 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: So they was like, and I'm younger so before they 392 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: really pop off, but like I was a little bit younger, 393 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: so like I was, I'm different than I am now. 394 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: When I was young, obviously, I was like kind of 395 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: more burned out, so I was kind of I didn't 396 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: really understand a lot of stuff, but I always respect 397 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: that their music and what they created. And the one 398 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: that we went on tour, this thing was like, hey man, 399 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: why we don't talk and I don't know you nigga, 400 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: but he didn't understand, but like we know where I 401 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: come from, don't know and they but not like howder 402 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:32,719 Speaker 1: that gave me a lot of advice, see to help 403 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: me a lot of ships. Like he really really smart 404 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: with the way that he handled his stuff and everything 405 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: is calculated, like he plans out every single thing. He do, 406 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: nothing eating. I feel like this nigga planning out his sentences, 407 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: like probably got a rint down somewhere. He different. And 408 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: one thing about the book for y'all that it was 409 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: at one point, um everyone was wearing I'm not a 410 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: rapper shirt right, and for the most part, a lot 411 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: of motherfuckers wasn't a rapper up, but they were having 412 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: this truck, jury done all that, so they wanted to 413 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: make a distinction, like I got I get money somewhere else. 414 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: I feel like when you guys said it feels like 415 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: you say I'm not a rapper, or it feels like 416 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: because when people say you're a rapper, it might nutes 417 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: the situation. So this thing was holler right. I don't 418 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: think with me, it's kind of different because if I 419 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: ever like downplay something I'm doing, it's not to shun it. 420 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: It's in comparison to other people. You feel me like, 421 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: if Pharrell is a musician and he knows all these 422 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: instruments and all these songs, I can't beat no musician 423 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: if I'm not on the same level of education. The 424 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: time that you put in as another nigga, you know 425 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like you can't tell you know a 426 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: nigger one bag of weed and being like you're hustling. 427 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: That's just not what it is.

It's 433 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: just like, so say you get a deal with a 434 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: company like say a sneaker, your clothing company, and you're 435 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: a rapper at you young dude.

So, um, 803 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: I think I think it was you and Tyler conversation 804 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 1: and he said, um, you know, being a rapper is 805 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: so like like I'm paraphrasing obviously, but it's so like 806 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: the lowest level of the totem pole. But uh, and 807 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 1: I think you said even back in the days, you said, 808 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: I think you said in the days, you know, it 809 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: was the dance up, it was the DJ, and then 810 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: it was the rap at the last it's the easiest 811 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: entry point. It's easy. And I think that it's much 812 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: just the easiest entry point. I think that's why hip 813 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: hop is so important to people like impoverished communities, because 814 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 1: to say, you gotta have a good boys, you gotta 815 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 1: know how to hold a note, you gotta have a 816 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 1: good memory. You don't gotta know you want to play instruments, 817 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: you gotta practice and blah blah. To rap are you 818 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: didn't have? You know, anybody can wake up one day 819 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: and be like, oh I'm a rapper, and somebody can say, 820 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 1: oh rap, And then you can do it if you 821 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: just pick up say I play the guitar, and you 822 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: try to pick that motherfucker be gonna miraish her. So 823 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 1: so it's like the lowest entry point to being a 824 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: creative in music, I feel, and I think that's why 825 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: so many people embrace it, and that's why we've had 826 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: so many great rappers over time, because it's something that 827 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: you can literally pick up overnight and you don't need 828 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: nothing to learn how to do it. You don't need 829 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 1: no instruments, you'll need none of that. You can really 830 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: sit inside your own head and you know, become good. 831 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: I think that's why it's really important and why it's 832 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: becoming the most dominant thing. That's crazy. That's crazy. You 833 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: produce now. I can't do none of that. I can't 834 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: turn on pro tools, you can't even turn it off. 835 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: I can't do none of that. That's why you don't 836 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: want to even learn. I'm cool. I mean my thing 837 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: is like I can learn this squa, I can save 838 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of money, but like I might know 839 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: somebody who like nice, and now they can pay their 840 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: bills off off that budget and be my engineer. I 841 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: ain't really greedy with it like that, you know what 842 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, if I know this nigga spend his 843 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: whole life engineering, why am I gonna try to do 844 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: it When it's somebody out there that you know that's 845 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: nice that I can probably elevate what I'm doing. That's 846 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: why they were trying to make beat And I'm like, 847 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 1: that's like thirty niggas that I know that make beat. 848 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: Why do I need to be the thirty first nigg 849 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: and make beats when they can just make the beat 850 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: from me, you know what I'm saying, might as well 851 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: to split it up. So what's beyond the rhyme? And 852 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: then assuming that that's the entry point, like you said 853 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: you want to do more, I was just saying as 854 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,320 Speaker 1: far as like he was based on me and Tyler conversations, 855 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: the entry point meaning that if you want to make music, 856 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: being being a rapper is a kind of the easiest 857 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: thing to do, and you can just talk about yourself 858 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: with people.

My thing 864 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: is like like I was telling like saying earlier, I 865 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: ain't never really want to do nothing, So I'm just appreciative, 866 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: Like not that I didn't want to do nothing, just 867 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: wasn't in my mind, Like I wasn't raised in no 868 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 1: place where nigga's got dreams like if you're tall or 869 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 1: you big, you can play basketball.

Nigg is always do my voice, and 968 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: nigga's kind of will see if the nigga that sound 969 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,439 Speaker 1: like that had a gas nigga everything, that's me at 970 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 1: it because I I used to be out like that. 971 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 1: I don't sunk with other niggas, Like if you wanted 972 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: my homies, you don't. But I don't know a gang 973 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: of people from a gang of the neighborhoods, Like, I'm 974 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: not that stupid. That's how you get killed. I was 975 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 1: that wrong in My mom always said Mario man To 976 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: stated your cell type ship, which goes against what hip 977 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: hop is. So when sometimes I say this came out, 978 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:18,879 Speaker 1: I was doing good blah blah, I want to good 979 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: trajectory no idea and death Yam. They have a conflict 980 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: of of kind of ideas. No I d kind of 981 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: leave death jam. So at that point in time, I'm 982 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 1: just trying to figure it out. I don't really know 983 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 1: what I'm doing. And then I was doing shows just 984 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 1: in the meantime, and I realized, like it felt weird, 985 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: like man, I'm out here in this different country and 986 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah, and all I got to do. 987 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: All I can tell Nigga is is that you know 988 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: our gang bang you feel me like music. But that's 989 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 1: all I had seen in my life, so I don't 990 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 1: know how to read articulate much. So um, I was like, 991 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: all right, I'm never doing this again. Like even with 992 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: the Big Fisterio, I'm like, I made the album so 993 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 1: it could get sinks for movies, so I had God 994 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: made it with that in mind. Yeah, every single and 995 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,959 Speaker 1: almost I think like probably eight you know songs got six. 996 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 1: So the reason I made it because we had got 997 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 1: an offer to do. Um was it? It was the 998 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: Was it the army or was it FIFA? What was first? FIFA? Right? 999 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: What call of duty gave me? Offer? How much was it? 1000 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 1: Like you, I'm trying to see if it is the 1001 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: right story because which one was hired was a call 1002 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: of duty or FIFA? But that FIFA was higher? Right? 1003 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: All right? So call it basically call of duty gave me. 1004 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 1: But that call of duty, call it what call of 1005 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,080 Speaker 1: duty gave me to do one song that they didn't 1006 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: even use as more than my whole album budget. Okay, 1007 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: but lets let let's be let's be let's be um 1008 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: precise if you can, but you do you get published 1009 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: in off of that or this is a buyoutum now 1010 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: you okay, call of duty license notice, but some people 1011 00:47:57,360 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: you can do about it. But they they knew music, 1012 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 1: So I still got paid an they didn't use it. 1013 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:03,919 Speaker 1: I got a FIFA thing, they didn't use it. Okay. 1014 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: I got a FIFA thing for Champions League, and that 1015 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,800 Speaker 1: was crazy and then I was like, all right, feva 1016 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 1: money different, that's soccer. I was like, this makes sense. 1017 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,879 Speaker 1: So the years later, I don't even a boris knew 1018 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 1: that in the room. So when when Call of Duty 1019 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 1: didn't use it, um, the U S. Army picked it up. 1020 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: The Army picked it up. I got paid for it again, 1021 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 1: they didn't use it. Then after the Army didn't use it, 1022 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 1: Spider Man Movie use it. So this is all the meantime. 1023 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm making this album and I'm torning. I'm like, all right, 1024 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: so if I can get tense songs, every one of 1025 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 1: these songs, can you get singed? Then I don't need 1026 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: nothing else, you feel me. So then I made this 1027 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: song called back Back. I made it for Baywatch. They 1028 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: put in the Baywatch trailer and I noticed that, like, 1029 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 1: k exactly, so what's it called? Um, don't see it 1030 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: there exactly when you came you came to seat, So 1031 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: what's McCall it? What's the name name? Damn? What's her name? Um? 1032 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,239 Speaker 1: Fuck no? So I make I make back back right 1033 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: and we go the ohay is director and like it 1034 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: was a you know, the music director kept putting my 1035 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:10,800 Speaker 1: ship in a certain ship. So I was I noticed, 1036 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,879 Speaker 1: like what songs kept getting singing, Blue sage kept getting 1037 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 1: sink and someone nor singing. I noticed like it was 1038 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 1: like they was going for the most abrupt sounds to 1039 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: kind of separate the scenes. So then I started making 1040 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: music with that in mind. So back back guy Um, 1041 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: I got back back in Baywatch, Black Panther, and like 1042 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: one other thing, and then a lot of the other 1043 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,279 Speaker 1: songs was getting scence. So basically I was that changed 1044 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: my whole life, and then that changed the torn because 1045 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:38,839 Speaker 1: now I could play. It was the point of time 1046 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 1: when I was playing festivals, no rappers on the stage 1047 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 1: but me and Golden. It was the only rappers on 1048 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 1: the on the build unless you play hip hop festival 1049 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 1: like Splash or something to be like Prime and be 1050 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 1: headline or some ship like that, like some cool ship 1051 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 1: like that. But other than that, if it was no 1052 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 1: real hip hop festival, it'd be two rappers on the 1053 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: whole festival, be Me and Golden, something like Damn Old 1054 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 1: who gold Link for Sea. So I was like, all right, 1055 00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 1: if it's fifty festivals this year, and I know for 1056 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: a fact I can play every single one of them 1057 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,720 Speaker 1: because they're not even gonna want to play in them crowds. 1058 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 1: Then I'm just I was just counting the money. So 1059 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:08,799 Speaker 1: I had like a two or three year span where 1060 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 1: I wasn't even wrapping about the games. I don't even 1061 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 1: cursing really was, So I really wasn't because I was 1062 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 1: thinking about these shows. I wasn't saying the again ship 1063 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 1: like that. And then like you know, something happened in 1064 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 1: life and I was like, man that I'm gonna be 1065 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: kind of more. I'm just gonna do what I do. 1066 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 1: But I cleaned up. But it's like it was really 1067 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,320 Speaker 1: worth it to me because it's like it was wasted years. Wow, 1068 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, chasing the money, blowing up, the way that 1069 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: you approached making the music for the certain opportunities. That's 1070 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: that's that's when Bad, That's when Bad and Boogie was out. 1071 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: So it's like, all right, you gotta think about how 1072 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,320 Speaker 1: many they help was doing all kind of alien movies, 1073 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 1: all kind of superhero movies. Marvel was popping, so they 1074 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,040 Speaker 1: can't play these songs essentially when they playing in these 1075 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: in these movies. So what I would do is I 1076 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: would look at kind of scores. I was watching like 1077 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 1: Blade Runner, I was watching Certain Ship, and I was 1078 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 1: seeing what that kind of music sound like, and I 1079 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: was looking at how international things worked. They was putting 1080 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 1: a lot of playing a lot of older you know, 1081 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,879 Speaker 1: old UK music and ship like that, and I've kind 1082 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: of just figured out looked at we looked at what 1083 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 1: movies was coming out, and we just made songs that 1084 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 1: would fitting certain things. And it makes sense if you 1085 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:07,280 Speaker 1: listen to the catalog, at least when I was listening recently, 1086 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 1: each song sounds different. Now it makes sense why, Like 1087 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 1: you're thinking in yeah, this is for this, this for 1088 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 1: this is for this. I didn't have a two old 1089 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: projects certain shows for action movie starting shows for their 1090 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: startin shows for that. We were doing that and to 1091 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 1: this day and we just got another one for this 1092 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: other movie. So I mean it worked. But essentially it's 1093 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: like I had some lives and hommies passing, like some 1094 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 1: family members passing ship, and like it just kind of 1095 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 1: re reassessed like the way I looked at like because 1096 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: like you know, you get older, you gotta realize what 1097 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 1: matter you feel me And I think I got to 1098 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,240 Speaker 1: the points where I kind of had a better understanding 1099 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 1: that recently. Does does it ever? Does the fans ever 1100 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 1: get on your case, because if you're making the music 1101 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 1: for these opportunities, then you're not necessarily making it anymore 1102 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: for the fans. I mean, but who are the fans? 1103 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 1: Feel the fan the fans like I'm asking, like, really, 1104 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: who are the fans? And fans are based on your 1105 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 1: point of view. So if you if you're making this 1106 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 1: and this is working here and look this way, the 1107 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: needs are the fans. If you look at way it 1108 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 1: needs a fans, it's only gonna be somebody to like 1109 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,399 Speaker 1: some ship, so you can't pay attention. And the way 1110 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 1: I looked at it was like, man, it's I hadn't 1111 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: done so much worse ship than made a song, and 1112 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 1: they don't like I got motherfucker's that's gonna be really 1113 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:13,840 Speaker 1: mad for the rest of their life for me, so 1114 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 1: I care about it. Sounds crazy, but I care more 1115 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: about the niggas I didn't done wrong in my life 1116 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: that I was like, you know, really done something too. 1117 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: Then I do a motherfucker who don't care about who 1118 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 1: don't like a song you fee me? I want to 1119 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 1: tell them theyket sorry not to necessarily music people just 1120 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: add where I'm at in life right now. So I 1121 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 1: understand it. But everybody like music is emotional thing, and 1122 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,360 Speaker 1: like I knew I was gonna be able to do 1123 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 1: music because I was good at certain ship. So if 1124 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 1: I can convince you that you're mad, so you go 1125 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 1: around the corner and whatever, I know, I can get 1126 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,839 Speaker 1: these nigga and listen to a song. When I first 1127 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: started met SID and telling on them, I wasn't making 1128 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: the music. I want to rapper. That's why I don't 1129 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 1: got no rap name, because I ask me my name, 1130 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 1: because I did the verset and it just I was 1131 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 1: told my name and they put it in the ship 1132 00:52:54,600 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: and that was my raping. So now the North North right, 1133 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 1: all right, now we're understanding Long Beach is its own entity. 1134 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: It's its own city. Now it's like you're you're narrowed down, 1135 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 1: like now I'm just not from North As. I'm not 1136 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 1: just from Long Beach. I'm from North North. Can you 1137 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,479 Speaker 1: break that short, person that's never been to California before? 1138 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 1: What is Nor North? I mean? Yeah, it's like every 1139 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 1: every city has a segment, you know what I mean, 1140 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 1: And and the segments have segments. So I feel like 1141 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 1: the way it is is nobody had ever said that 1142 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 1: from I got a gang of homies that's from North 1143 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,400 Speaker 1: Long Beach, but they from East Side gangs because I 1144 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 1: was the bigger gangs or you know, so when you 1145 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 1: because a person that don't know, when you say they 1146 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: from that's you're saying that's the set they joined exactly exactly. 1147 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 1: But it's like it's a gang. It's g g Nique 1148 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: is like all the dudes that's from the North, that's 1149 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,920 Speaker 1: from Eastide gangs. Like that's reparables for me. But at 1150 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 1: the point in time, it's just you know, it's the 1151 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 1: crowd like people do would make their most sense. And 1152 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: also with the racial so we say this North Side, 1153 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:01,880 Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of the big games. Well 1154 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 1: we got the two biggest games gonna be on the 1155 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 1: way on the east of me and twenties in the 1156 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: same is the biggest hoods.

When you kids, 1161 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: you know, you're trying to find your way. But it's 1162 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 1: funny North North wasn't even gone I thought it was 1163 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 1: too burnt out because so let me ask you some 1164 00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 1: of him sorry to cut you off.

Yeah, because like he said, 1182 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,239 Speaker 1: it was a point time when he was clashing with 1183 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 1: the north, northeast, n there long and so that there's 1184 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,320 Speaker 1: still kind of iffy, but um, yeah, man, I just 1185 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 1: felt like and I didn't want to put out because 1186 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: it was too burnt out. I felt like it was 1187 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 1: too real based on what was going on at the time. 1188 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 1: You feel me like it was if you like really 1189 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 1: listened to that song, I was doing some stupid I 1190 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 1: should have said, should have said a lot of ships. 1191 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 1: It is what it is. But yeah, man, that's my 1192 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 1: only platinum plaque, So I ain't mad at it. I 1193 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: ain't so so for people that didn't know. Basically, you're saying, 1194 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 1: there's there's, there's the east side of Long Beast, but 1195 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,839 Speaker 1: then it's the north side of Long Beasts. Yes, gets 1196 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 1: overlooked a lot of times because people go and they 1197 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: join the east side game and in the west long 1198 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:53,360 Speaker 1: as you got the west side too. There's some real 1199 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: dudes from over there. Like. But it's like the thing 1200 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: about Long Beaches. I understand it because when we grow 1201 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: up with those one with those racial rapping for Aians, 1202 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: it's a lot of racial tension and Long Beach. So 1203 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 1: it's like, if you like it's just black a Mexican o. 1204 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,919 Speaker 1: So Asians and Mexicans, Asians and Indians. Yea, the Asian 1205 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: and Mexicans have a really really really bad clash, like 1206 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 1: like it's risk. It's probably worse than it's because they 1207 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 1: look closer to each other. Asians and Mexican. Yeah, that 1208 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,359 Speaker 1: got a really bad worse than the Blacks Mexicans. It's 1209 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 1: it's probably equal, to be honest, if not only were 1210 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 1: not say worse because they're in closer proximity, some more 1211 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 1: things can still bad right now. Yeah, to the day 1212 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 1: when we say Asians, we are including zombies.

Man, I mean, it's just 1444 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,640 Speaker 1: just one of is not now take Leo out because 1445 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 1: you know what people saying, Oh that's the white guy 1446 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: taking le All out, takeing out. Put Kevin Lows in there, 1447 01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,720 Speaker 1: put uh, put a Kadar, put a Mark Pitts or 1448 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:22,720 Speaker 1: something like that. It would be the same exact thing. 1449 01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: Show this reputation supersedes him. So they'll go with the 1450 01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 1: lesser even or lesser powers. But what I'm trying to 1451 01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: say is regulabels back then, like when I'm looking at 1452 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 1: you said the NBA Young boy, Um, that's another right 1453 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 1: now the case right now I think even um, I'll 1454 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: keep hearing about little dirt name keep popping up. And 1455 01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:41,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is I'm not I'm not glorifying this. 1456 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 1: But back then these cases will disappear. But were also 1457 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 1: I think I think I think what you're saying is 1458 01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 1: and we didn't have Instagram, Yeah, But also what you're 1459 01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:53,200 Speaker 1: saying is that the the labels is more aware of 1460 01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 1: who these artists was. And I think a lot of 1461 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 1: that come to sell forward because at the point of time, 1462 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:58,680 Speaker 1: like I was saying that the labels and they might 1463 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:00,040 Speaker 1: we don't know what's going on with him because the 1464 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 1: world has changed so much. They might be struggling a 1465 01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 1: lot of these dudes, like you just think we need 1466 01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 1: self awareness, like what they need artists, like they need 1467 01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 1: to know how important it is. Bro, I going to 1468 01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:09,760 Speaker 1: my neighborhood, brought swear to God. You hear it a 1469 01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 1: hunted NBA Young Boys songs back to back and then 1470 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 1: you hear a hunted Little Dirt songs back to back. 1471 01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, like like these people is 1472 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 1: real significant, important people in our culture. You know, everybody 1473 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 1: had their struggles, but also listen to these songs. Listened 1474 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,360 Speaker 1: where these people come from. We can't expect everybody to 1475 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 1: be ready to fly straight right away, you know what 1476 01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So no real talk, no real patient. Another perspective, 1477 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: and you might have to look at it. Maybe it's 1478 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 1: not that they had your back. Is that the investment 1479 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 1: was so important for them. We have bigger budgets they 1480 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 1: need to because it was worth a lot of money 1481 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:39,519 Speaker 1: for them.

And then he brought in 1535 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 1: the lawyer afterwards because it makes you sign a release 1536 01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 1: saying that if you get caught doing promo ship you 1537 01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:11,760 Speaker 1: don't work for the company. Then we signed it. Then 1538 01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:13,439 Speaker 1: the lawyer comes in and he goes, it's the lawyer. 1539 01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:15,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna talk to you guys.

Right now we're I mean, I get 1545 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 1: what you're saying, because at that point in time, I 1546 01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:33,559 Speaker 1: guess hip hop wasn't necessarily commercial stranstration. You know, it's 1547 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:35,760 Speaker 1: getting commercial, So it was kind of operated in the 1548 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:38,559 Speaker 1: world that like he was the first real commercial guy 1549 01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 1: like that wasn't trying to be commercial, like he That 1550 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:45,240 Speaker 1: dude never changed, like that dude was as pure as 1551 01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,240 Speaker 1: But I mean, would you call it commercial?

I don't know, we 1778 01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:31,160 Speaker 1: didn't really it gets California. It's different, it's different cultures 1779 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,080 Speaker 1: every But that's all I'm saying. Music is an introductory 1780 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:34,960 Speaker 1: point because it's the same thing with all these people 1781 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: are these other stage taking loud they want They didn't 1782 01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:39,360 Speaker 1: know what chrystial blood was only until they got really 1783 01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:40,960 Speaker 1: big in the music, of course, and they're gonna go 1784 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:43,000 Speaker 1: to your city and set up. But that's not gonna 1785 01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 1: have it be to where it is now. The music 1786 01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:47,799 Speaker 1: is the biggest you know thing that it changes everything 1787 01:25:47,920 --> 01:25:51,640 Speaker 1: bro changed every end Internet. But so why do you 1788 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 1: why do you think that all our folks is like that? 1789 01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 1: Like because why do you think that's so easily everybody 1790 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:01,200 Speaker 1: like that? Everything like that? I think think about thinking 1791 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:02,880 Speaker 1: about the spread of racism in places that don't have 1792 01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:04,600 Speaker 1: no black people, you know what I mean? That was 1793 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:06,519 Speaker 1: told that. I mean when you look at it's just 1794 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,080 Speaker 1: a medium and mass conception, a certain ship. What you 1795 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:10,800 Speaker 1: consume is who you are, you know what I mean? 1796 01:26:10,800 --> 01:26:12,080 Speaker 1: If you think about what you eat and you know 1797 01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: what you drinking things that you are so so essentially 1798 01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:17,840 Speaker 1: that's everybody. It's not just black people. You see um 1799 01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:20,880 Speaker 1: Dick Gregory documentary. I ain't seen it.

And 1809 01:26:56,040 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 1: then he found out a white dude who who had 1810 01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:05,720 Speaker 1: orchestrated a run from New York to California. So he 1811 01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:08,680 Speaker 1: asked the dud and he did it.

So he said he didn't eat. So 1821 01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:42,519 Speaker 1: when people asked him why you didn't eat, he said, 1822 01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:44,600 Speaker 1: because there's people in this world that's starving, And he 1823 01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,719 Speaker 1: said that's how.

Yeah, 1922 01:31:55,280 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 1: it's possible like that. That's that's what we're working on. 1923 01:31:57,439 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna station ship, but that's that's what you're working on. 1924 01:31:59,439 --> 01:32:01,559 Speaker 1: Is hopefully a panel. I'm good. I think it's gonna 1925 01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:03,200 Speaker 1: be straight. Like put it like this. When I watched 1926 01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:05,800 Speaker 1: The Little Thing, I didn't know who's the homies real name? 1927 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:12,760 Speaker 1: What's uh? What's the artist that's like, I'm like, I'm 1928 01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:16,120 Speaker 1: thinking of my drug now let you go, let you know. 1929 01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,120 Speaker 1: So I went in with the attentions like why would 1930 01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:22,280 Speaker 1: they give a new artist, you know, this platform, Like 1931 01:32:22,400 --> 01:32:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm going in hating like to a certain extent, like 1932 01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:27,720 Speaker 1: to a certain extent like yo, like let me tell, 1933 01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:30,439 Speaker 1: and I went I came out loving it like we're 1934 01:32:30,520 --> 01:32:34,439 Speaker 1: season two, like you know what I mean, because again 1935 01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:37,559 Speaker 1: I don't know this man struggle. I don't know who 1936 01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 1: he is. So I didn't know that, you know, they 1937 01:32:40,120 --> 01:32:42,439 Speaker 1: had the same type of struggles just because they might 1938 01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:44,840 Speaker 1: not be as poor as us, but their family is 1939 01:32:44,880 --> 01:32:48,599 Speaker 1: not supporting them. Yeah. Yeah, like you said, emotional ship 1940 01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:50,880 Speaker 1: and all this crazy like you know, being an artist, 1941 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:54,760 Speaker 1: that's why that's why I love DMX statement when he said, yo, 1942 01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:57,760 Speaker 1: he stopped calling an artists whack. And I asked him, 1943 01:32:57,760 --> 01:32:59,639 Speaker 1: I said, well, why would you stop calling artists whack? 1944 01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:04,200 Speaker 1: He said, because one artist for sixteen different families. And 1945 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:06,760 Speaker 1: I was just like wow, Like, regardless of let's think 1946 01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 1: about it, for artists works at bare minimum, he's speeding 1947 01:33:10,320 --> 01:33:12,559 Speaker 1: at least eight to ten on his own team. Then 1948 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 1: he's helping out six to seven to maybe even the 1949 01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:19,639 Speaker 1: whole record label. He like saved the whole record label, 1950 01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:22,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So um, But getting back 1951 01:33:22,439 --> 01:33:26,479 Speaker 1: to that, when I see the show, I was, you know, 1952 01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:30,360 Speaker 1: I was actually impressed, but I was more impressed that 1953 01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:33,000 Speaker 1: Obviously I don't know this guy. I've never met him before, 1954 01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:35,600 Speaker 1: but he was portraying a life that I think that 1955 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:38,639 Speaker 1: he lived. Yeah, it's important, like like but like you said, 1956 01:33:38,720 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: you never know somebody entry points. So him doing that 1957 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 1: show my guardens. Even like when Atlanta with Donald Gloving. 1958 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:47,759 Speaker 1: Like Atlanta, of course, Donald was already successful, but Atlanta 1959 01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:49,840 Speaker 1: opened him up to so many more people that probably 1960 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:51,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been paying attention. So you gotta be willing 1961 01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:54,320 Speaker 1: to take the risk, and like even even ship, like 1962 01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,600 Speaker 1: when you think about Aaron, What y'all girl, Which is 1963 01:33:56,640 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 1: when y'all was all making music, y'all was taking risks. 1964 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:00,800 Speaker 1: Y'all wasn't doing the same thing over and over and 1965 01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:03,040 Speaker 1: over and over and over again. And it's important to 1966 01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:04,760 Speaker 1: be creative in that light and just you know, trying 1967 01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:07,679 Speaker 1: to do different ships, y'all paying out. You also said 1968 01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 1: one thing, I'm sorry you're bounsing around. You said you 1969 01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:14,559 Speaker 1: can't be a thug in broke. Even George Washington living 1970 01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:18,679 Speaker 1: Compton once. Now this nigga, not George Bush. George Bush 1971 01:34:18,760 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 1: lived in Compton, and Kevin Cosner from Compton, Board from 1972 01:34:25,600 --> 01:34:30,160 Speaker 1: Compton the Bodyguard when he was in Bodyguard Compton?

He said, George Bush and George 1976 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 1: Buston lived in County. I got that from him from 1977 01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:49,720 Speaker 1: my mama Google it. Compthing was nice, that's where he 1978 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:51,560 Speaker 1: was at. It was Compton was like pals brain. So 1979 01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:55,000 Speaker 1: the niggas went over there with him. Guys changed it all. 1980 01:34:55,040 --> 01:34:56,439 Speaker 1: They had to get up out of there. Really, know 1981 01:34:56,520 --> 01:34:58,120 Speaker 1: what's you know what's crazy about you, and I know 1982 01:34:58,200 --> 01:34:59,920 Speaker 1: you like you know your history. You know, it's crazy 1983 01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 1: about the West Coast. When the West Coast, when you 1984 01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,080 Speaker 1: ever you say something's funked up about the West Coast, 1985 01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:06,720 Speaker 1: you always have to blame the South. You know why? 1986 01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 1: Sorry South people, Sorry, y'all went west thinking there was 1987 01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:15,880 Speaker 1: no racism. I was thinking because it was the South 1988 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:18,680 Speaker 1: was really really racist. And in order to go to 1989 01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:20,800 Speaker 1: the right to up north, you got to have a 1990 01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:23,160 Speaker 1: little bit of money or have some family. So those 1991 01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:25,080 Speaker 1: that was from the South that didn't have a little 1992 01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:26,960 Speaker 1: bit of money, we go to the East Californa. California 1993 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:28,800 Speaker 1: had a trade you say, you warn't over They had 1994 01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:31,759 Speaker 1: to try the train system and the infrastructure for warehouse jobs. 1995 01:35:32,320 --> 01:35:38,840 Speaker 1: I don't think trying to escape racism. It was fo opportunity, 1996 01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:40,560 Speaker 1: just based on the Gym Crow South. A lot a 1997 01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:42,600 Speaker 1: lot of the people out organizing, like the l A 1998 01:35:42,680 --> 01:35:44,640 Speaker 1: police chasing people like that they was getting from the 1999 01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:46,760 Speaker 1: Gym Crow South kind of help. Real line of the 2000 01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:48,960 Speaker 1: black communities in the Hispanic communities. Like you think about 2001 01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:51,000 Speaker 1: how the freeways has been a railroad and with downtown 2002 01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:53,479 Speaker 1: l A used to be like eight nine areas like that, 2003 01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:55,439 Speaker 1: A zuslu rides and things of that nature. It's always 2004 01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 1: been a big separation. And how what he's saying is 2005 01:35:58,120 --> 01:36:00,200 Speaker 1: the South kind of a lot of people came not 2006 01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:02,000 Speaker 1: understanding what was going on. And we think about the 2007 01:36:02,479 --> 01:36:04,640 Speaker 1: building of Venice and how Venice was built. You know, 2008 01:36:04,680 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 1: A McKinney died, gave it to a black dude. So 2009 01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:08,639 Speaker 1: he built the Oakland region for black and Hispanic people, 2010 01:36:08,960 --> 01:36:11,400 Speaker 1: and then they took it in the late nineties. You 2011 01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:14,040 Speaker 1: know what I mean, because it was he writing this 2012 01:36:14,080 --> 01:36:16,360 Speaker 1: sent because it was it was it wasn't a lot 2013 01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:18,640 Speaker 1: of knowledge of what was going on in California. So 2014 01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:20,840 Speaker 1: when people came to California was kind of taking off 2015 01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:23,800 Speaker 1: guard by what happened, and a lot of people it 2016 01:36:23,920 --> 01:36:27,000 Speaker 1: was presented the opportunities there was I think um before 2017 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:30,640 Speaker 1: or something like that. It was a big car, It 2018 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:33,000 Speaker 1: was a fist factor firestone factory. Yeah, it was a 2019 01:36:33,040 --> 01:36:36,120 Speaker 1: big fire stool. And they were hiring, they were hiring brothers. 2020 01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:38,160 Speaker 1: The brothers was going out and then you gotta realize 2021 01:36:38,160 --> 01:36:42,400 Speaker 1: California's beautiful weather. So and they're in the South and 2022 01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:47,360 Speaker 1: the Atlanta, South Carolina, uh, North Carolina, Virginia and all 2023 01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:51,680 Speaker 1: these places where they're still flying the Confederate flag. So 2024 01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:54,479 Speaker 1: anywhere to the people that don't got a Confederate flag 2025 01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:57,840 Speaker 1: seems like the primis land to us in California and 2026 01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 1: New York being one. But the crazy the ship. When 2027 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:02,840 Speaker 1: people say it all kind of come from the South, 2028 01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:05,200 Speaker 1: they're not kind of lying because all of our ancests 2029 01:37:05,240 --> 01:37:07,439 Speaker 1: that was was out in the South at first.

Didn't happen in California. 2032 01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:13,240 Speaker 1: That should have happened in the South.

And it's based on the true story. Loosely, yes, 2088 01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:32,240 Speaker 1: it's based on a true story. It's based Yeah, based 2089 01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:36,599 Speaker 1: on a true story. Not everything accurate, Not everything accurate.

It's still it's still still in the hall. 2096 01:40:58,080 --> 01:41:01,080 Speaker 1: So what's your relationship with fell I for he don't 2097 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:03,120 Speaker 1: gave me some good advice. I only I only linked 2098 01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:05,240 Speaker 1: up with him like three or all time, but like 2099 01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:07,960 Speaker 1: for real, really important, like in the Long Beach trajectory. Wow, 2100 01:41:08,120 --> 01:41:10,120 Speaker 1: because I think what he was doing with Snoop and 2101 01:41:10,120 --> 01:41:11,720 Speaker 1: what he did like what ice cream, like he was 2102 01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:13,280 Speaker 1: just doing a t K. Well, is this dude named 2103 01:41:13,360 --> 01:41:18,240 Speaker 1: Terry Kennedy and t K like a real nigger. So 2104 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,720 Speaker 1: like the fact he picked him up and like he 2105 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:24,280 Speaker 1: from Long Beach. Yeah, Team Black Mike. Mike passed though, 2106 01:41:24,320 --> 01:41:28,600 Speaker 1: and he was Terry Lion online terror. That was a 2107 01:41:28,720 --> 01:41:34,920 Speaker 1: TV ship though. That was he really long, but yeah, 2108 01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:37,080 Speaker 1: he was freil came down there like he helped some 2109 01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,400 Speaker 1: real dude the Long Beach skateboarding and big a Long 2110 01:41:39,439 --> 01:41:41,720 Speaker 1: Beach all life like. It ain't never been like just 2111 01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:44,760 Speaker 1: everybody doing type thing. But yeah, that was for a 2112 01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:46,559 Speaker 1: got a really important place, a lot of a lot 2113 01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:49,360 Speaker 1: of hard song buard broth, are you very important? That's 2114 01:41:49,520 --> 01:41:53,720 Speaker 1: why out of all the West Coast dudes right that 2115 01:41:53,840 --> 01:41:56,479 Speaker 1: I've ever heard, you know, with Tupac didn't come out. 2116 01:41:56,640 --> 01:41:58,559 Speaker 1: I think the only two people that I've ever heard 2117 01:41:58,680 --> 01:42:02,679 Speaker 1: say Tupac from New Bottommore, it's you and Whack one Hunter. 2118 01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:05,519 Speaker 1: It's it's it's not fair to take that out his story, 2119 01:42:06,280 --> 01:42:07,800 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, if you if you 2120 01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,040 Speaker 1: think about where he comes from, his parents, we can't 2121 01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 1: talk about his mother being a black panther and all 2122 01:42:11,920 --> 01:42:13,720 Speaker 1: these other things. And I think about where she was 2123 01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:15,920 Speaker 1: doing these things. So how are you gonna just pick 2124 01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:17,840 Speaker 1: the parts of the you know, of course he say 2125 01:42:17,920 --> 01:42:21,360 Speaker 1: he safe from but he keeps supports and claims California's 2126 01:42:21,360 --> 01:42:23,840 Speaker 1: Cerntheiny just same way Corrupt claim Philadelphia in n l A. 2127 01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 1: But if you act corrupt about if they just took 2128 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,040 Speaker 1: Philadelphia away from corrupt, I'm pretty sure he would be offended. 2129 01:42:30,360 --> 01:42:33,479 Speaker 1: So when you think about Tupac from Baltimore and going 2130 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:36,519 Speaker 1: to New York and Baltimore and Marine City, you feel 2131 01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:39,000 Speaker 1: me and then hanging uplom but really living in Marine 2132 01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,080 Speaker 1: City and helping being to being an important part of 2133 01:42:41,120 --> 01:42:44,560 Speaker 1: you know, hip hop at that point, take away his 2134 01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 1: digital underground ever, which a lot of people don't mention. 2135 01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:48,200 Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying. That's I just don't like 2136 01:42:48,280 --> 01:42:50,400 Speaker 1: miss leaving nothing out because he ain't here to say 2137 01:42:50,400 --> 01:42:52,120 Speaker 1: what he want us to leave out. So you know, 2138 01:42:52,240 --> 01:42:53,479 Speaker 1: you don't know what he was doing, and you know 2139 01:42:53,560 --> 01:42:55,320 Speaker 1: he was working with Jada Pinket Smith or something like 2140 01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:57,160 Speaker 1: that out there, Like that's clearly an important part of 2141 01:42:57,200 --> 01:42:58,839 Speaker 1: his life, you know what I'm saying, Like that, Tupac 2142 01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:02,559 Speaker 1: is the only guy who has a record about New York. 2143 01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:05,720 Speaker 1: When he's talking about Skelly, he's talking about you know, 2144 01:43:05,920 --> 01:43:08,639 Speaker 1: Baggy G. She's talking about all the New York ship 2145 01:43:08,920 --> 01:43:10,760 Speaker 1: And I believe in one million per cent but then 2146 01:43:10,800 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 1: I also believe California love. But but that's what I'm saying, 2147 01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:16,040 Speaker 1: like you gotta think the I think he was creating 2148 01:43:16,080 --> 01:43:17,599 Speaker 1: a real time. He wanted people that I was creating 2149 01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:19,400 Speaker 1: things in real time to save music changed so much 2150 01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:21,360 Speaker 1: because he was changing. He was trying to find his 2151 01:43:21,439 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 1: footing in certain ways. So since he was finding his footing, 2152 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:25,640 Speaker 1: I think it's important to like to show the hole. 2153 01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:27,240 Speaker 1: We are talked about having the whole story, and I'm 2154 01:43:27,240 --> 01:43:29,160 Speaker 1: telling about truth and that's part of his story. And 2155 01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:31,280 Speaker 1: that's probably the reason that he created the way that 2156 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:33,479 Speaker 1: he did, because I'm pretty sure it wasn't no niggas 2157 01:43:33,479 --> 01:43:35,280 Speaker 1: out in Oakland or no niggas on the country just 2158 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:37,519 Speaker 1: hanging out trying to write poems like it was when 2159 01:43:37,560 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 1: he was hanging out. Because I feel like I've spent 2160 01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:41,559 Speaker 1: some time in New York and it's like I feel 2161 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:44,280 Speaker 1: like creativity is more on the forefront out there than 2162 01:43:44,360 --> 01:43:46,240 Speaker 1: it is out here. Like a like if you even 2163 01:43:46,280 --> 01:43:49,200 Speaker 1: take something sim was a graffitio said, our ship compared 2164 01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:52,880 Speaker 1: to y'all ship is like completely different based on gang 2165 01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:55,360 Speaker 1: like but that but even when it's not like even 2166 01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:58,320 Speaker 1: if even even the people even the people from California 2167 01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:01,160 Speaker 1: who are are are bigger. The city artists have tax 2168 01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:02,920 Speaker 1: in New York, you know what I mean. So I 2169 01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:07,080 Speaker 1: New York York. So I think I think those are 2170 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:10,240 Speaker 1: important things that lets the point out. I think I think, um, 2171 01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:16,439 Speaker 1: I think New York and Callie really compliments each other, 2172 01:44:16,560 --> 01:44:17,960 Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying, Like like being from 2173 01:44:18,040 --> 01:44:20,680 Speaker 1: New York and having to uh you know, go through 2174 01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:23,240 Speaker 1: these winners and they happen to go to the California 2175 01:44:23,240 --> 01:44:25,719 Speaker 1: and to adapt to that. I think those two states 2176 01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:29,160 Speaker 1: when you when you're from that it really makes who 2177 01:44:29,240 --> 01:44:31,600 Speaker 1: you are, Like if you could adapt to both environments, 2178 01:44:31,880 --> 01:44:35,759 Speaker 1: but the way Pocket adapted or something totally different, because 2179 01:44:36,120 --> 01:44:39,360 Speaker 1: like you said, you said, you said, um, I'm from 2180 01:44:39,680 --> 01:44:42,679 Speaker 1: they from the hood, which or they're from that set 2181 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:46,120 Speaker 1: which when we say we from, we only mean where 2182 01:44:46,160 --> 01:44:49,080 Speaker 1: we were born and what we what we were. When 2183 01:44:49,160 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 1: you say a person is from that's a that's a 2184 01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:55,080 Speaker 1: gang that they actually because of the first it could 2185 01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:57,320 Speaker 1: be from cross the city. But if they're on the 2186 01:44:57,400 --> 01:44:59,400 Speaker 1: role in the sixties, they're from the roll in the sixties. 2187 01:44:59,800 --> 01:45:01,880 Speaker 1: Is that because that the way it's like, it's like, 2188 01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:04,559 Speaker 1: so yeah, man, these niggas that's from hoods that they 2189 01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:06,160 Speaker 1: ain't even grow up in. Like I know dudes who 2190 01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:07,920 Speaker 1: grow up in a long beach with us, but their 2191 01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:12,080 Speaker 1: dad's is from Conference, so they're from their dad's neighborhood exactly. 2192 01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:15,240 Speaker 1: They from there. So it's like it's just a different dynamic. 2193 01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:17,280 Speaker 1: But I think, you know, they do compliment each other well, 2194 01:45:17,280 --> 01:45:19,200 Speaker 1: and I feel like it's something that we, you know, 2195 01:45:19,360 --> 01:45:20,960 Speaker 1: we kind of overlooked.
