<v Speaker 1>This militator crazy world radio Drinking Champs. Yeah, y'all. All

0:00:56.600 --> 0:01:04.319
<v Speaker 1>of the all above make some fucking and right now

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:07.160
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the leader of the new school,

0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:11.720
<v Speaker 1>people who are leading their own agenda. When I came out,

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 1>it was dope to not sound like anybody else, to

0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 1>be original, and I think that art has been lost

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:24.000
<v Speaker 1>in the past ten years or so. But when I'm

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:27.120
<v Speaker 1>spaking about the artist that's hair right now. Every time

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.320
<v Speaker 1>I hear him on the record, whether it be with

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 1>somebody's spin, whether it be his own record, whether it

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 1>be his own video. It's always original ship. He does

0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>not sound like no one else. He does not remind

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>me of no one else. He's original. He's a real artist,

0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a real spinder, and one of the best personalities and

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 1>hip hop hands down. People always ask me if I

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.280
<v Speaker 1>who get in the podcast game would you be nervous of?

0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.560
<v Speaker 1>And I always say the same three names. I say Cameron,

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I say Trick Dad, and I say the brother that's

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 1>here to the left of me. If he gets in podcasts,

0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll be nervous. In Casey, I don't know if people

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>off for you to do a podcast every goddamn day

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.839
<v Speaker 1>because his personality is that dope. When Casey, I don't

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>know what the hell I'm talking about. We're talking about

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 1>d motherfucker fish stables like you know, you know, you

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:25.919
<v Speaker 1>know what's bugged out. I had to do a study

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:27.959
<v Speaker 1>on you, so I went and I look. And the

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>craziest thing is if I wouldn't compare any artists to

0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a comedian, the first comedian I would compare you Tuesday Chappelle.

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that's funny because that's the honey. Yeah, that ain't

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:41.080
<v Speaker 1>never making a lot of sames. I don't heard that before.

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 1>You heard that before? Okay, so do you have a

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.959
<v Speaker 1>relationship with yah Rock with Dave? Dave give me some

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.600
<v Speaker 1>good advice? Worked together on something already now, just like

0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, he lives out in the bunny, so I'd

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 1>have been out there a couple of times, you feel me,

0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>because I'm facing the same thing. I'm really be working

0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:01.200
<v Speaker 1>around like so not just interesting because you know. The

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>funny thing about Dave is like they have a comedian,

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 1>but they don't really tell jokes, you know what I mean.

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>He did with the Truth Commentary, man, but he had

0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 1>always been like that when we were younger, right, and uh,

0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm only seven, so like what's your pel showing? Like

0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.480
<v Speaker 1>that came out? That was the only thing I really know.

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:20.519
<v Speaker 1>But she was like, my daddy has like like my

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.359
<v Speaker 1>pops before he went down to stuff, he had like

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Eddie Murphys. And She's like, but I ain't think it

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:28.640
<v Speaker 1>was funny like that because I was too young. Yeah,

0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's like now down that it was hilarious

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 1>looking back when I was younger. Yeah, I get that.

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 1>I'll get that a couple of times, definitely. So let

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.920
<v Speaker 1>me ask you. I'm buncing around a little bit um.

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 1>You originally started on a major on depth jam. Right,

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 1>what made you say that? You know what depth jam?

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go and do my own fans, We'll see

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>what's right. So you already know how that type of

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>ship work. Yeah, I know it's for the fans. Yeah,

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:52.800
<v Speaker 1>you know whatever. Like so it's just universal. You feel

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:54.440
<v Speaker 1>yourself like I'm on there, I was on death Cham

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. Uh, it just didn't make sense.

0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:00.800
<v Speaker 1>You feel me in a And it's not that it

0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>didn't make sense because I was sucking up, but they

0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 1>was sucked up. It's just everybody want different things, you

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. So now we got the little

0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 1>situation via motown. But it's like it's you feel me.

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>So it's like when you think about the idea of

0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:17.760
<v Speaker 1>a record company. They basically they give you the loan

0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 1>and they front the distribution to make your CDs and

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 1>basically talked you triple with it, but you don't et

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:27.039
<v Speaker 1>there are no fucking CDs nothing, And then we still

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:30.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of get tricked a little bit because like we

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>still kind of falling for the same tricks. It's like

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like a vanity playing the sense like oh man,

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.640
<v Speaker 1>this motherfucker. Like it's something like nigga like Tyler, Right,

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:39.600
<v Speaker 1>the honey just saw the hundred fifty thousand albums, right,

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>He didn't sell a hundred fee thou abums. He sold

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>billions of straight millions. Because they're not going to tell

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.840
<v Speaker 1>these niggas, oh man, you had millions of billions of

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.120
<v Speaker 1>people listening to you in three days. They're not gonna

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>say that, because then you're gonna be like, damn if

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm able to do that, but I don't need them,

0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:57.720
<v Speaker 1>you feel what I'm saying. Like, and essentially, when we

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>think about press in general, like you got y'all, you

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.120
<v Speaker 1>got you got Gilly and Wallow, you got the Joe,

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of people that's taken out because when

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>I was younger, for me, they would the press will

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh man, tell us about the streets and

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>being a nigger, and it's like what y'all talking about.

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 1>So at this point in time, like just the whole

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 1>ship is changing. But I think it's you know, in

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:20.480
<v Speaker 1>artists their own press now because social media allows you

0:05:20.520 --> 0:05:23.360
<v Speaker 1>to do your own press. Yeah, but it's like essentially

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it's this ship is like the magazines and she's like

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that turning the pictures like pressure this pictures like you

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>can post the pictures and then oh you put oh

0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I was in g QUE and this advantity place people

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 1>feel like you're popping because you was in g Q

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.680
<v Speaker 1>New York time. Y'all that you can post the same

0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>pictures without that tagging. It's not gonna give people that

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of a it's all the vanity playing on me.

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Gotta it's smart. But what death cham was? You want

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Steve Bartle's I was on Steve Bartos. Cameron Quaker was

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>there Steve when Phasal was there, and and Paul I

0:05:56.440 --> 0:06:02.479
<v Speaker 1>was there from Paul because they're from Tony twelve thirteen

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.240
<v Speaker 1>to like two years ago. Well, I would think that

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Paul Wilsenberg, being your lyrical content, would be a person

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>that had you back. I don't know if he didn't know. Well,

0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>it's not even about having a back, it's it's like

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.480
<v Speaker 1>it's out of the label's hands in a sense, because

0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>if I'm a fan, right and I digest it in

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.640
<v Speaker 1>a certain manner, and the way that things changed so fast,

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 1>you can't possibly expect the label to be able to

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>move with all that infrastructure, the way that things after moon.

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.040
<v Speaker 1>So it's not like they're not trying, like they're doing

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.160
<v Speaker 1>what you for you what they do for everybody. Like

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 1>it's not like artists is going to and being like,

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 1>oh man, I want this press for all with this,

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>they're putting everybody on Jimmy family. But they're trying, but

0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:38.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like something just don't add up for the kind

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:40.160
<v Speaker 1>of artists you are. You kind of got to be

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>more creative nowadays, because it's not to the point of

0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:44.200
<v Speaker 1>where you know, you gotta poster in the CD and

0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:46.480
<v Speaker 1>they don't know about you and just gotta go from there.

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:48.200
<v Speaker 1>So it ain't like they were trying. But it's like

0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 1>ship it is what it is to a certain extent. Now,

0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 1>I've read somewhere that you said people that were ax

0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.200
<v Speaker 1>body spreading old spice or racist. Yeah, that's dusty, that's like,

0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.240
<v Speaker 1>that's like, that's like, that's like the white worlds they

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 1>was given man up. That's where the white boys that

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 1>lived by the beach four chance nineth chance don't get

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>caught over there either, don't. So for a long time

0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I really didn't understand Long Beach because I'm never tell

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>you why we went introduced to n w a right,

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 1>get straight out of Compton, and our mind Compton is

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Calie and you're from Compton originally, right, My and my

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 1>parents are Compton, and I'll be like three minutes away. Okay.

0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:38.559
<v Speaker 1>You can walk like you can go to Jordan High School.

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.480
<v Speaker 1>You can walk across like a bridge and then you're

0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 1>con finished like you can be when you're looking out

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.480
<v Speaker 1>of the compting right there. It's not there for us.

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>So when we're looking at it, all right, but ended

0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 1>up every way says straight out of Compent. We thought

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 1>that they saying straight out of California, Like I mean,

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.640
<v Speaker 1>it went over our heads, like we didn't really know that.

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 1>So for years, whenever a person say I'm from l

0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>A or off from California, we're meediately said Compton. I

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>was similarized it to how the person was from New York.

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>At the time, they were always affiliated to Brooklyn. Brooklyn

0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:10.400
<v Speaker 1>was like the broad is, so how is it being

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>from adjacent neighborhood from one of the most populoust place

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 1>in hip hop like Compton for a long time was

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 1>like shirt Kings like this a place called short Kings

0:08:21.440 --> 0:08:23.160
<v Speaker 1>and College and people just wanted to go there and

0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:25.800
<v Speaker 1>take a picture like people just wanted to go to Compton.

0:08:26.200 --> 0:08:28.320
<v Speaker 1>It was like the illest s and I know a

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:29.840
<v Speaker 1>couple of times I went to Compton, people like it

0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.760
<v Speaker 1>was easy house and he was lying to be like,

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.319
<v Speaker 1>oh ship, you know what I mean, Like, but how

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 1>is it growing up from adjacent neighborhood like that. I

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 1>think at the point in the time, I was just wait.

0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.199
<v Speaker 1>After that, Long Beach was already on the map, but

0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:49.240
<v Speaker 1>more Snow was snow Snow the biggest rapper there every everywhere,

0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:52.559
<v Speaker 1>so it's like it wasn't really no thing. I feel like,

0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:54.959
<v Speaker 1>like Long Beach one of the last cities in l

0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.439
<v Speaker 1>A County. It's like Long be Sampedro that kind of

0:08:57.480 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 1>like little areas like the Harvard areas, like kind of

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.560
<v Speaker 1>to the bad Park then Long Beaches right before Orange

0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:03.960
<v Speaker 1>County basically Okay, so it's like we're kind of far away.

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Were in l A technically, but we fowty fifty minutes away,

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>so we didn't I ain't never really go that l slad.

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>We didn't get along with them. It's like still to

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 1>this day, it's like you know, some sort of weird

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 1>time I heard you say when you were growing I'm

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 1>not growing up, but when you were getting into the

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 1>music business, you wouldn't even tell people you weren't from Left.

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Now that if you're telling you from Long and they

0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:28.160
<v Speaker 1>don't think you grind me and like weird, like why

0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>why could hear you say? But it's like it's funny,

0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:33.679
<v Speaker 1>like so like school Boy killing them, Like when I

0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>went on tour school Boy, every single person that tour

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:38.640
<v Speaker 1>like you from Long's like, yeah, man, it's weird out there.

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Everybody said that, But it's just because you know, people

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 1>got hired minds, like you said, a competent thing, right,

0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Like you know how DJ Quick and n w A

0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and Comte most wanted the King and all these dudes

0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.679
<v Speaker 1>comp different games, but they had, yeah, some of them

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.520
<v Speaker 1>things not really from competent, but that's when it comes there.

0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>But you got a lot of a lot of dudes,

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.440
<v Speaker 1>like it was a marketing thing, like say you new

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.439
<v Speaker 1>Compton like ice cube, not from company from l A.

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>But it made sense if we you of course, but

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:08.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like from he from A from l A sou

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:10.280
<v Speaker 1>it's like from like a hunting So it's like when

0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:14.400
<v Speaker 1>you think about built up, it's like it's comfortable. We

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 1>have Black Hunting Street from probably like around there, like

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 1>hard spool Ship because heat. It wouldn't have made sense

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 1>to say straight out of all these different places, so

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 1>he just had to pick on the Compton had a

0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.719
<v Speaker 1>reputation at that point in time. And that's kind of

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:30.439
<v Speaker 1>how these things work. So when you look at just

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.800
<v Speaker 1>just for musical contraction, if you've got all these dudes

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.240
<v Speaker 1>looking like you know, DJ Quick or Easy or blah blah,

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>and then you got Snoop Dogg, who don't look nothing

0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>like these other dudes. He got on like a hockey

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.160
<v Speaker 1>jersey and its first video type ship. It's been like

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 1>that forever and it's still like that. So if like

0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:45.719
<v Speaker 1>you see any like when I was your girls, like

0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:48.160
<v Speaker 1>jerking was the thing, and people's dancing and skateboard and ship,

0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.040
<v Speaker 1>so you gotta nig it like with blond hair and

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 1>like eyebrow erring and like he shoot at you and

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 1>you from Content gonna be like, who is this nigga?

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 1>And it was that kind of thing going on. So

0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Nick from Content in other places when I really kind

0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 1>of a closer from l A, when I was meeting music,

0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>they'd be like, yeah, man, it's weird out there. Just

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.439
<v Speaker 1>because you couldn't really gauge who was tooled by the

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:06.959
<v Speaker 1>way people look. Another thing about Long Beach, there's no

0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.079
<v Speaker 1>there's no red, Like I went to Long Beach a

0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>couple of times and I didn't see red at this time.

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:13.719
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of cities like that though. It's just

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.199
<v Speaker 1>as I mean, it's a lot of seas I really got. No,

0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.000
<v Speaker 1>that's all bloods, like the cities like all Mexicans, you

0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:20.319
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. So it really just depend on

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 1>how you look at it. Like Womantin is all bloods

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.280
<v Speaker 1>and Mexicans. Long Beaches all Chrystian Mexicans. It's not really

0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 1>no bloods and Guardina except for like theF they claimed confidents.

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 1>So yes, it's a couple of cities that ain't really

0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 1>got no wow. This this this is like a whole

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:38.599
<v Speaker 1>different world because you know, but like again, like you know,

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.679
<v Speaker 1>being naive and just having w A n w A

0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 1>was literally my GPS so and then moving on to

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:48.559
<v Speaker 1>uh what was it, dre and I just thought it

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:50.760
<v Speaker 1>was all one things, even Long Beach. I thought Long

0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:53.319
<v Speaker 1>Beach from you for you because originally from l A.

0:11:53.400 --> 0:12:01.200
<v Speaker 1>So yourself just say I didn't think it's remember, yeah, yeah,

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:05.199
<v Speaker 1>because you had experience the South gaily Like I always

0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>thought Compton was a jail, Like when they said straight up,

0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I don't want to go to that

0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:12.000
<v Speaker 1>jail because we had right because the island at the time,

0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and I'm thinking this is their their record to match

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Cougi rap. I had no idea like and so like

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:23.920
<v Speaker 1>to me, to me, California is just a whole different planet.

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Like I remember when we were like, you know, wearing

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.319
<v Speaker 1>win breakers and and break the sad. It was like

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>they was just khakis and that was that your experience.

0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 1>I knew. It's a little I mean, when you think

0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>about music, you know that that's that kind of speaks

0:12:37.960 --> 0:12:40.040
<v Speaker 1>to the power of music because the visual thing, right,

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:43.920
<v Speaker 1>everybody knows these other places because of rap music. Essentially,

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:46.079
<v Speaker 1>it's the most descript music genre as far as the

0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.559
<v Speaker 1>explanations of the times and places and the statics and

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.600
<v Speaker 1>things of that nature. Right. So when you think about California,

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:53.400
<v Speaker 1>when I was younger, just I thought the Bay was

0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, all together, and then you realized I didn't

0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 1>know he thought he was wasn't from Oakland till I

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:04.599
<v Speaker 1>was grown from Okay. Okay, okay, but it's like, I

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:06.120
<v Speaker 1>know what, I don't know what none of that was.

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I know that between Berkeley and Oakland and things that

0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:12.240
<v Speaker 1>New York dude, it's all the same to us and

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 1>as far as Hill. But to a person that's from California,

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:19.319
<v Speaker 1>you're saying you're from Balleo and being the Bay Area

0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>that you have to be particularly, you have to be

0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:23.400
<v Speaker 1>per sip. You can't be yeah, because it's it's a lot,

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:25.240
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of I mean, it's like that everywhere.

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 1>But the thing about California is that California so big,

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.240
<v Speaker 1>essential big. You can't do you know, you can drive

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the Philly, you ain't driving nowhere but Vegas. Maybe as

0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>far as being something, but it was a big thing

0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:42.079
<v Speaker 1>with um exhibit Maxim was claiming California or something and

0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:44.040
<v Speaker 1>was like he from New Mexico and it was like,

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute, Like and to me, I thought New

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Mexico was a part You're like, I was like, what's

0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.439
<v Speaker 1>the problem apart? I mean I thought that the white

0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>people everything. You know, I ain't partner to what I'm saying.

0:13:56.360 --> 0:14:02.080
<v Speaker 1>So being from Long Beach, right being, I didn't remember

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.040
<v Speaker 1>me and you was on Twitter, and I was like,

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 1>you got mad at me? Yeah, I said from little

0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 1>fat here, don't like snoop. But then you you school

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.280
<v Speaker 1>me though you scooed me. He was like, yo, growing up,

0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't even um know you gotta we gotta stop

0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:20.120
<v Speaker 1>real quick this this Nike got mad at me because

0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I was seven years I was listening a little bit.

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 1>What I agree with you love kid in play, all that,

0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 1>all that happy ship like stopping man. But let me

0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.240
<v Speaker 1>just tell you something. You're correct, and let me just

0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>say happy now he's correct. Let me take you something.

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I think that initiale argument was you said that this

0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:43.880
<v Speaker 1>error was better than the two thousand's, was better than

0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the nineties because you let the white people white people.

0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.800
<v Speaker 1>And so I'm gonna tell what. Okay, okay, because because

0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you said Kanye right, we had a we had a

0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>it was a South forn It's Time magazine. We gotta

0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:56.880
<v Speaker 1>put in the context that Time magazine don't give a

0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:59.040
<v Speaker 1>funk about no black people or no rap music unless

0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:01.160
<v Speaker 1>you like Obama or some ship. So they was talking

0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 1>about pop culture, and they was talking about the height

0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.480
<v Speaker 1>of pop culture and hip hop music and pop culture.

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:08.800
<v Speaker 1>So the show for the matter is it's no way

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 1>possible possible that at a point in time that when

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:14.840
<v Speaker 1>we got hip hop music and niggas was suing that

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 1>for day and all this other type of ships. At

0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:18.720
<v Speaker 1>the point that Travis Scott got a New York collaboration,

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 1>black people's headlining the biggest festivals in the world and

0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 1>black people that no normal ship. He's saying, No, that's

0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>all I'm saying, like from from from context. When you

0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:30.960
<v Speaker 1>think about the two thousands, they're like, it was just

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:33.120
<v Speaker 1>more opportunity and more money. When we think about what

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Jay was able to do with fifty singer was able

0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to do, what they're still able to do, it just

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>these things wasn't possible because the kind of the phase

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 1>in which hip hop was in it it's more established

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.560
<v Speaker 1>down in the world before as they should be. But

0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>that got thrown is oh, then he's not the goal.

0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>And they're like, you really think, like, and that's what

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 1>we got to stop falling for that ship because because

0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>what I'm talking about press like Time Magazine is not

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:55.320
<v Speaker 1>talking about the fucking bars. They're talking about how much

0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>money you've got to influence on the ship. And and

0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.640
<v Speaker 1>for for not for lack of a better term. They're

0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 1>going to use the clickbait. They're gonna use debate that

0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna will everybody in. But ahead, would you expect

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.800
<v Speaker 1>every generation to expect your golden rors their golden arrow

0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:11.560
<v Speaker 1>and you know what? You know? What was what was ill?

0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>What he said at that time when he described Wow.

0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>The thing about it is I couldn't identify with that

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.120
<v Speaker 1>because I was already a grown man as he was

0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:20.960
<v Speaker 1>this hard throughout, for he was always a little bout

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:22.920
<v Speaker 1>out up. He was always a little bout but he's

0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:28.520
<v Speaker 1>not no more. He big bible. He sold your boy

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:31.280

0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:29.679

0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.879
<v Speaker 1>and him at the descripancy. It's a little misunderstanding for me.

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Following you and following and seeing your relationship. I start

0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.639
<v Speaker 1>to think that I know him now through you, because

0:17:57.680 --> 0:17:59.639
<v Speaker 1>how y'all, Like I see y'all with the radio interview

0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 1>together up. I said, hey, y'all on records together, Um,

0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:05.080
<v Speaker 1>how did you develop that relationship. I mean, Tyler never

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:11.639
<v Speaker 1>got along hate that, but that's the honey now is

0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:14.640
<v Speaker 1>just um yeah, I mean it's like this right because

0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 1>that was coming up together in the same so okay,

0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:18.720
<v Speaker 1>my way different something like I said, So Long Beach

0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:20.879
<v Speaker 1>far from l A. Right, So I was cool with

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Sid who was a DJ at the time. She was

0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:25.880
<v Speaker 1>group out the internet now and uh yeah, I would

0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:27.679
<v Speaker 1>kick it with her mind. When I first met him,

0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I went with a honey house from Long Beach, but

0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:30.800
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to make it I was pretending he was

0:18:30.800 --> 0:18:32.520
<v Speaker 1>from l A because the daddy worked out there, you know,

0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:34.119
<v Speaker 1>because he's trying to be a rapper and ship like that.

0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:36.120
<v Speaker 1>So he went over there once night. I never seen

0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 1>no black people with the house that big. The house

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 1>was like crazy to Tyler house, Nah seeing them. So

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:43.119
<v Speaker 1>it's like she had the studio and ship like that

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.800
<v Speaker 1>and that's where everything was. They were just there. Now,

0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I got kind of cool for a little bit, but

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:49.879
<v Speaker 1>like we wasn't really cool. So he got out his

0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:55.879
<v Speaker 1>little situation when when uh, I was working with him

0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. But I ain't never really talked to

0:18:57.320 --> 0:19:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Tyler because I'm I'm more calm than them. You feel me.

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:03.359
<v Speaker 1>So they was like, and I'm younger so before they

0:19:03.440 --> 0:19:06.480
<v Speaker 1>really pop off, but like I was a little bit younger,

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.359
<v Speaker 1>so like I was, I'm different than I am now.

0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:09.879
<v Speaker 1>When I was young, obviously, I was like kind of

0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:12.400
<v Speaker 1>more burned out, so I was kind of I didn't

0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:15.119
<v Speaker 1>really understand a lot of stuff, but I always respect

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:17.199
<v Speaker 1>that their music and what they created. And the one

0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:18.720
<v Speaker 1>that we went on tour, this thing was like, hey man,

0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:20.960
<v Speaker 1>why we don't talk and I don't know you nigga,

0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:25.840
<v Speaker 1>but he didn't understand, but like we know where I

0:19:25.960 --> 0:19:31.480
<v Speaker 1>come from, don't know and they but not like howder

0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:32.719
<v Speaker 1>that gave me a lot of advice, see to help

0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:34.359
<v Speaker 1>me a lot of ships. Like he really really smart

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:35.960
<v Speaker 1>with the way that he handled his stuff and everything

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:39.080
<v Speaker 1>is calculated, like he plans out every single thing. He do,

0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:42.000
<v Speaker 1>nothing eating. I feel like this nigga planning out his sentences,

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:45.040
<v Speaker 1>like probably got a rint down somewhere. He different. And

0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:47.359
<v Speaker 1>one thing about the book for y'all that it was

0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:51.879
<v Speaker 1>at one point, um everyone was wearing I'm not a

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:57.439
<v Speaker 1>rapper shirt right, and for the most part, a lot

0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.280
<v Speaker 1>of motherfuckers wasn't a rapper up, but they were having

0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 1>this truck, jury done all that, so they wanted to

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:05.240
<v Speaker 1>make a distinction, like I got I get money somewhere else.

0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I feel like when you guys said it feels like

0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 1>you say I'm not a rapper, or it feels like

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:13.720
<v Speaker 1>because when people say you're a rapper, it might nutes

0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the situation. So this thing was holler right. I don't

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:19.440
<v Speaker 1>think with me, it's kind of different because if I

0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:23.879
<v Speaker 1>ever like downplay something I'm doing, it's not to shun it.

0:20:23.960 --> 0:20:26.000
<v Speaker 1>It's in comparison to other people. You feel me like,

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:28.760
<v Speaker 1>if Pharrell is a musician and he knows all these

0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:32.439
<v Speaker 1>instruments and all these songs, I can't beat no musician

0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:34.920
<v Speaker 1>if I'm not on the same level of education. The

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>time that you put in as another nigga, you know

0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:38.680
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, Like you can't tell you know a

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.639
<v Speaker 1>nigger one bag of weed and being like you're hustling.

0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:43.640
<v Speaker 1>That's just not what it is. So wait, I feel

0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:45.480
<v Speaker 1>like with Tyler's Tyler and a lot of people just

0:20:45.840 --> 0:20:47.720
<v Speaker 1>are generationally, they just do a lot more than that.

0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:49.480
<v Speaker 1>So it's like a lot of times when you're gonna

0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 1>see these rooms, it's like, oh, you might be the

0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:52.880
<v Speaker 1>rapper or you might be this, it might be. It's

0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:56.000
<v Speaker 1>just like, so say you get a deal with a

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:59.280
<v Speaker 1>company like say a sneaker, your clothing company, and you're

0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:01.879
<v Speaker 1>a rapper at you young dude. It's different if you

0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 1>get an artist. Your artists are gonna put you on

0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the billboard to make you a fee. You don't give

0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:07.479
<v Speaker 1>your feed to show you to you your name and likeness, right,

0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>but if they look at you as more than that, essentially,

0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:13.000
<v Speaker 1>they might be like, Okay, come design this product or

0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:15.720
<v Speaker 1>come consult with this product. So it's not I don't

0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:17.639
<v Speaker 1>think people say it in the sense of trying to

0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:21.760
<v Speaker 1>diminish wrapping itself. It's just like, don't put me, I'm

0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:23.760
<v Speaker 1>just help. Yeah, that you're trying to treat niggas like

0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:25.040
<v Speaker 1>to help, you know what I'm saying. And that's just

0:21:25.200 --> 0:21:27.399
<v Speaker 1>that's not gonna work nowadays with all these opportunities you

0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.720
<v Speaker 1>see all these things that's going on with like these

0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:31.560
<v Speaker 1>know all this fashion stuff and this technology and know

0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:34.239
<v Speaker 1>something ship like we're able to really make Hayway now

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:36.960

<v Speaker 1>this is awkward. She's looking for a drink from last night.

0:22:56.920 --> 0:23:01.479
<v Speaker 1>She got real let's make it look let me tell yourself,

0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:04.200
<v Speaker 1>that's the most shame I've ever had, Like when you

0:23:04.320 --> 0:23:08.680
<v Speaker 1>leave your not just your credit card, your credit card

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 1>because you know the next day you're like, yo, how

0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 1>bent was I to? Like, you know, just forget all this?

0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Now that's really getting a faded. Oh yeah, you know what.

0:23:18.080 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Today we honor and you know we look. You know

0:23:22.920 --> 0:23:27.480
<v Speaker 1>you never smoked or drink. Your whole life makes some noise.

0:23:28.960 --> 0:23:31.159
<v Speaker 1>But I'm not even I'm not even to tell you

0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:33.399
<v Speaker 1>the truth. I'm not even making noise for you, not

0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.879
<v Speaker 1>ever indulging. I'm making noise for you being as strong

0:23:37.040 --> 0:23:40.280
<v Speaker 1>as you can be around. I could imagine growing up

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:44.119
<v Speaker 1>around the gang bangers around you know, even other rappers.

0:23:44.200 --> 0:23:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Wrappers get higher than gang bangers at this point, you

0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:48.359
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. So now these young niggas bro

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:51.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's crazy like Californias niggas is on black Day

0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:55.400
<v Speaker 1>on Crystal Like what's black? I don't know what the heroine? Like, Yeah,

0:23:55.440 --> 0:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>they're smoking black Like wait wait, yeah, you know that's

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the other games. So nigg is in the county Jil

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 1>right now are black and beat up, preperable like the

0:24:10.640 --> 0:24:13.120
<v Speaker 1>pills and it's just it's sucked up right now. Yeah.

0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:16.720
<v Speaker 1>So so um, like you know most of my homeboys

0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:20.400
<v Speaker 1>who never got high, like even even Fat Joe, um,

0:24:20.800 --> 0:24:23.760
<v Speaker 1>you know except when you got in mind that one time. Yeah,

0:24:23.760 --> 0:24:26.080
<v Speaker 1>but um, but that's what my sake. I was sleek

0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:28.840
<v Speaker 1>sneaking high. But most of my friends who didn't get high,

0:24:29.480 --> 0:24:32.880
<v Speaker 1>um had like someone in their family that they saw

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>get high. They saw overdose, so they saw and and

0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 1>they like even fat je Fat Joel had this horrible

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:41.960
<v Speaker 1>story about him seeing his family members get high. So

0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:44.680
<v Speaker 1>every time we Fat Joe, I will understand. So I

0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:46.760
<v Speaker 1>never pushed it on it. It's that experience that you have,

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:49.040
<v Speaker 1>he my. I've seen my pops go from like being

0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:51.359
<v Speaker 1>up and like being a man and having all the

0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:53.399
<v Speaker 1>cars and all the money and all the other stuff.

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:55.159
<v Speaker 1>You know we're supposed to care about to like me

0:24:55.240 --> 0:24:57.720
<v Speaker 1>and whoop, they're not like just not being it, you

0:24:57.760 --> 0:24:59.760
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. See the hommy leaves, the people leave.

0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I it's just not cold, you feel me like, and

0:25:02.640 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not necessarily getting highest self, But like I never

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>want to not know if I was sucked up for me,

0:25:08.880 --> 0:25:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I never not want to know. You don't you don't

0:25:11.080 --> 0:25:12.760
<v Speaker 1>want to be the motherfucker who up and then you know,

0:25:13.040 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 1>you hit that point and then everything go away. I

0:25:15.520 --> 0:25:17.760
<v Speaker 1>couldn't really let that happen to myself. And also you

0:25:17.840 --> 0:25:20.240
<v Speaker 1>just gotta pay attention, like you know, I mean the

0:25:20.440 --> 0:25:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Long Beach, everything is in such club proximity, and we

0:25:23.280 --> 0:25:25.880
<v Speaker 1>got such you know, we got a real bad racial conflict.

0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>So I didn't want to be It's real bad like

0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Mexican Mexican. So it's like you ain't want to be

0:25:33.480 --> 0:25:35.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, slipping at a certain point of time, especially

0:25:35.440 --> 0:25:37.040
<v Speaker 1>when I was going up like early two thousand, like

0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:39.639
<v Speaker 1>the white tierre was like niggas called it. There was

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:41.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot going on, so I ain't never want to

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 1>get caught. Like my sister got shot like seven eight

0:25:45.160 --> 0:25:47.399
<v Speaker 1>times when I was when I was a kid, just

0:25:47.480 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, be at the casino. You know, I'm getting drunk,

0:25:50.119 --> 0:25:52.480
<v Speaker 1>having a good time, and you got aired out, so

0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 1>it's you ain't really safe nowhere. So just that and

0:25:55.119 --> 0:25:56.840
<v Speaker 1>my pops this little shit, I was like, yeah, I

0:25:56.840 --> 0:26:00.240
<v Speaker 1>gotta pixis or something like that. So um, but let

0:26:00.280 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 1>me ask you, so, like, you know, just hanging around

0:26:03.359 --> 0:26:06.119
<v Speaker 1>the environment, how did you develop that strongness? Because that

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 1>like there's a lot of people that's gonna watch his

0:26:08.680 --> 0:26:11.240
<v Speaker 1>interview and say, wow, that's dope. You know, Vince ain't

0:26:11.280 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 1>never you know, but it couldn't have been easy. Like

0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:16.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure the people the hot box with you, the

0:26:16.640 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>windows up in the car and everyone smoked. I felt

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:20.919
<v Speaker 1>like I feel like it was easy only because now

0:26:20.920 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm be myn only to be smoking around me, like

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:24.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't really bother me like that. I feel like

0:26:25.920 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 1>I was lucky enough to have you know, decent family,

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:29.840
<v Speaker 1>and I got real humbies, you know what I mean,

0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Like I got the same homey since forever, Like I'm

0:26:32.560 --> 0:26:34.960
<v Speaker 1>not wanted them random weird niggas who like wake up

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>one day and started claiming the hood and giving to

0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:38.680
<v Speaker 1>get some money all the other bush they put you

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:40.399
<v Speaker 1>on it, Like, but I've been around for such a

0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:42.560
<v Speaker 1>long time. That's just like my homies ain't never encouraged

0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>me to do nothing that wasn't so like if these niggas,

0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:47.320
<v Speaker 1>if we didn't been through like you know, real life

0:26:47.359 --> 0:26:50.320
<v Speaker 1>situation with like real implications and they ain't doing it,

0:26:50.400 --> 0:26:52.240
<v Speaker 1>then you niggas, can't you know what I'm saying, I

0:26:52.320 --> 0:26:55.520
<v Speaker 1>can't knows can't try it. You feel me like because

0:26:55.560 --> 0:26:57.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know, even when a bad influence is

0:26:57.359 --> 0:26:59.680
<v Speaker 1>essentially a good influence as well. And my mom and

0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:01.600
<v Speaker 1>my pops, they didn't raise us to be like you

0:27:01.680 --> 0:27:03.639
<v Speaker 1>know when my pops around, you know, because it were

0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:05.720
<v Speaker 1>like one thing I tell me all time, Like you know,

0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:07.800
<v Speaker 1>we have a lot of conversation about my fatherhood and

0:27:07.880 --> 0:27:09.760
<v Speaker 1>black man and like that. But it ain't like once

0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:11.359
<v Speaker 1>he naund go down that road, it ain't like they

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.159
<v Speaker 1>can come home, you know what I'm saying, Like they

0:27:13.200 --> 0:27:14.760
<v Speaker 1>can say right, I learned my lesson. Let me go

0:27:14.920 --> 0:27:17.159
<v Speaker 1>home now. So you know, you know when he was

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:18.959
<v Speaker 1>around with my mom was in around. They just raised us,

0:27:18.960 --> 0:27:20.680
<v Speaker 1>so you don't be on our own ship. Like I

0:27:20.800 --> 0:27:24.440
<v Speaker 1>know a dude listen and you know I spoke were drink,

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:26.920
<v Speaker 1>but I know a dude who did it one time?

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:33.000
<v Speaker 1>He um did what one time? Oh? He uh? We

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:35.480
<v Speaker 1>were all spoken, but the buds guy ran out of

0:27:35.520 --> 0:27:37.440
<v Speaker 1>but I didn't want to tell us. We didn't want

0:27:37.440 --> 0:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>to tell him. We that we just bought all the bud.

0:27:39.760 --> 0:27:42.600
<v Speaker 1>She was like, OK, give U up. He gave one

0:27:42.640 --> 0:27:44.960
<v Speaker 1>to him, put it in the bud, And I don't

0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:46.359
<v Speaker 1>want to say his name. Is he funked up to

0:27:46.440 --> 0:27:48.879
<v Speaker 1>this day? You know what I'm saying. But it's literally

0:27:48.960 --> 0:27:52.160
<v Speaker 1>like what happens if he just didn't want to get high,

0:27:52.560 --> 0:27:54.359
<v Speaker 1>Like he might have not been as bugged out as

0:27:54.400 --> 0:27:56.560
<v Speaker 1>he is he seeing anybody, but like, like you know

0:27:56.560 --> 0:27:58.720
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. I mean, this is twenty five years ago,

0:27:59.160 --> 0:28:01.200
<v Speaker 1>but he didn't know he was smoking pieces no, because

0:28:01.240 --> 0:28:03.040
<v Speaker 1>back then that's how they would get it off. They

0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 1>would be like, like, that's smoking dirty. How I got

0:28:06.119 --> 0:28:08.600
<v Speaker 1>my pops. That's how I got my popures hanging with

0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:12.240
<v Speaker 1>the ho you strung out, that's how that happing? Wow

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:16.320
<v Speaker 1>wow man, that's crazy. So so one things that I

0:28:16.400 --> 0:28:21.000
<v Speaker 1>also noticed about about you just so honorable that when

0:28:21.040 --> 0:28:22.880
<v Speaker 1>a person does a record with you, you don't even

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:26.800
<v Speaker 1>use their name. What's that about it? I'll defend the

0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:29.480
<v Speaker 1>lame bro, Like, so you do it on purpose? Yeah?

0:28:29.640 --> 0:28:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Play there's no no features because I don't know I'm

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:37.920
<v Speaker 1>having features. But yeah, but it's like it's like, like

0:28:38.400 --> 0:28:41.000
<v Speaker 1>what's on the game? Is there is there an advantage?

0:28:41.040 --> 0:28:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Of doing that too. The music. I'm thinking I'm high.

0:28:44.200 --> 0:28:46.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking I'm making a mistake. I'm like, why is

0:28:46.360 --> 0:28:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Future on this? He sounds like Kendrick. She's like, it's

0:28:56.160 --> 0:28:57.680
<v Speaker 1>like the title of the song, right, the title of

0:28:57.720 --> 0:28:59.360
<v Speaker 1>the songs, the title of the song. The title went

0:28:59.560 --> 0:29:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the song blah blah blah, featuring and using the homie.

0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:04.280

0:29:04.320 --> 0:29:06.239
<v Speaker 1>the song day on the song. I don't like how

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 1>to look on the track list, and I feel like

0:29:07.760 --> 0:29:10.280
<v Speaker 1>you're trying to, you know, convince motherfucker's that you hard

0:29:10.360 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 1>but you're definitely that Yeah, Wow, that's dope, but it's

0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:20.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of crazy. It's but it's crazy, but that's just stupid,

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Like you know, you're supposed to use it to your advantage,

0:29:22.120 --> 0:29:24.960

0:32:33.440 --> 0:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>in Atlanta for a little while. I was in Atlanta

0:32:35.240 --> 0:32:37.680
<v Speaker 1>for like six months, seven months? Okay, we did that

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:41.760
<v Speaker 1>help like you musically or getting music? Yet I didn't

0:32:41.760 --> 0:32:43.400
<v Speaker 1>make music. So I came back. I was in Atlanta

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:46.840
<v Speaker 1>middle nine grade. I had some stupid ships, so I

0:32:46.920 --> 0:32:49.320
<v Speaker 1>had to go go to Atlanta. Yeah. So when I

0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:52.080
<v Speaker 1>came back home when everything was called posthetic whatever. But

0:32:52.120 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 1>seeing them big booty girls, they had that long beach, right,

0:32:54.960 --> 0:32:57.120
<v Speaker 1>the big booty girls. Then this is the thing about Atlanta.

0:32:57.160 --> 0:32:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I was going to West Lake, so I was like

0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I was at Lintics small you feeling what I'm saying.

0:33:03.160 --> 0:33:05.280
<v Speaker 1>I was over to school with cam New Nigga was

0:33:06.760 --> 0:33:09.800
<v Speaker 1>it was like, uh, I was just mad because there

0:33:09.840 --> 0:33:11.560
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of ship going on. And like when

0:33:11.600 --> 0:33:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I went to a land of one of my homies

0:33:13.160 --> 0:33:15.880
<v Speaker 1>had died and it was like fifteen when he was fourteen,

0:33:15.960 --> 0:33:20.240
<v Speaker 1>was fifteen, and it's like when you leave while something

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 1>like that happening. Yeah, I just felt like a buster,

0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:24.080
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I felt like I could

0:33:24.120 --> 0:33:25.800
<v Speaker 1>be doing something that you know, you know, you know

0:33:25.840 --> 0:33:29.280
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. So like my mind wasn't the wrong

0:33:29.320 --> 0:33:30.760
<v Speaker 1>place the whole time I was there, you know what

0:33:30.800 --> 0:33:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. So when I got back home, I was

0:33:34.240 --> 0:33:36.400
<v Speaker 1>supposed to tell my dad I think he had a

0:33:36.440 --> 0:33:38.360
<v Speaker 1>flash or something like he disappeared and I think he

0:33:38.400 --> 0:33:39.880
<v Speaker 1>had a flash, to be honest. So my mom was

0:33:39.920 --> 0:33:41.840
<v Speaker 1>like end up staying with me or whatever because she

0:33:41.880 --> 0:33:43.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to go back there because I wasn't landing.

0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 1>The school system wasn't equivalent, so like I wasn't doing it,

0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Like I wasn't the was doing t a work. And

0:33:48.880 --> 0:33:50.880
<v Speaker 1>it's like a little bit after Katrina, So it was

0:33:50.920 --> 0:33:52.840
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of displaced people. Blah blah, they don't got

0:33:52.920 --> 0:33:55.120
<v Speaker 1>enough little some bullshit, not enough room in the classes.

0:33:55.160 --> 0:33:57.080
<v Speaker 1>So I was literally sitting office for like four or

0:33:57.120 --> 0:34:00.560
<v Speaker 1>five periods. I came back to California and I noticed,

0:34:00.600 --> 0:34:02.560
<v Speaker 1>like how nice it was, you know what I'm saying,

0:34:02.560 --> 0:34:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Because you're in Atlanta. Nice too, But it's a different

0:34:04.320 --> 0:34:06.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of nice shots. You've got truck stops and what

0:34:06.400 --> 0:34:08.719
<v Speaker 1>a burg not? What a burger wife whouse? And it's

0:34:08.760 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 1>just desolate like out here, you know, we got it

0:34:10.600 --> 0:34:13.160
<v Speaker 1>just ain't going alonge be specifically, Like I was kind

0:34:13.200 --> 0:34:15.960
<v Speaker 1>of more appreciative and then I've just seen that and

0:34:16.040 --> 0:34:18.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not the right way to be. Will I came

0:34:18.600 --> 0:34:20.960
<v Speaker 1>back and like, I noticed that niggas wasn't like going

0:34:21.040 --> 0:34:23.880
<v Speaker 1>as hard as I thought they should be going. So

0:34:24.040 --> 0:34:25.759
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I ain't gonna like die and then

0:34:25.840 --> 0:34:29.719
<v Speaker 1>niggas like just go about the Yeah, I was even dying,

0:34:29.800 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 1>just like niggas go about their days. And when I'm there,

0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 1>so I try to figure out some other ship. That's

0:34:33.560 --> 0:34:35.959
<v Speaker 1>when the music should come from. It's anybody ever gonna

0:34:36.000 --> 0:34:38.319

0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:40.640
<v Speaker 1>not that good. It's not that good. I don't like

0:35:04.760 --> 0:35:06.640
<v Speaker 1>is gonna say this. Boy, I'm just being honest. For

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:09.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty five years I went had meetings at the waffle house.

0:35:10.280 --> 0:35:12.879

0:36:23.320 --> 0:36:25.279
<v Speaker 1>I feel like before he passed, you know, everybody knew

0:36:25.320 --> 0:36:27.200
<v Speaker 1>he was struggling with ship, but before he passed, he

0:36:27.280 --> 0:36:29.279
<v Speaker 1>was really doing really good. You know. It just he

0:36:29.719 --> 0:36:31.520

0:36:33.440 --> 0:36:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you don't always win, but he was doing good. I know.

0:36:36.000 --> 0:36:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I still talked to his mom. I talked to it

0:36:37.360 --> 0:36:41.680
<v Speaker 1>other day yesterday. I think, how'd y'all connect? I wouldn't

0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:43.799
<v Speaker 1>really making music at that time. Girl had came back,

0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and I was just you know, moving around him, making

0:36:45.600 --> 0:36:47.600
<v Speaker 1>sure you know, he was straight and ship and uh.

0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I introduced myself to him and he was like, I

0:36:50.400 --> 0:36:52.359
<v Speaker 1>don't know who you are. Why don't you make beats?

0:36:52.400 --> 0:36:54.040
<v Speaker 1>So that? Why don't you make music? And I sound

0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:56.080
<v Speaker 1>got no beats and he I'm making some beasts come

0:36:56.120 --> 0:36:59.759
<v Speaker 1>over here on Friday because he's living. Yeah, and then

0:37:00.040 --> 0:37:01.800
<v Speaker 1>saw him. That's how we ended up making music and

0:37:01.880 --> 0:37:03.400
<v Speaker 1>being cool. And then he took me on tour and

0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:05.239
<v Speaker 1>he didn't want to publish. He said, if you make

0:37:05.280 --> 0:37:08.640
<v Speaker 1>a million dollars, buy me, uh S class bands or

0:37:08.680 --> 0:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>something like that. Yeah, the whole of product. He gave

0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 1>me the ownership of it. He just said, if you

0:37:13.800 --> 0:37:15.400
<v Speaker 1>if you make a gang of money, just give me

0:37:15.440 --> 0:37:18.000
<v Speaker 1>like an S class and then took me on the road,

0:37:18.440 --> 0:37:20.719
<v Speaker 1>paid for my room and board and just and still

0:37:20.760 --> 0:37:23.560
<v Speaker 1>paid me. So yeah, you know, that was the home needed.

0:37:24.880 --> 0:37:26.719
<v Speaker 1>He didn't mope for me. And honestly, like as far

0:37:27.000 --> 0:37:28.400
<v Speaker 1>in the time of my life when I needed it,

0:37:28.480 --> 0:37:30.239
<v Speaker 1>because you got to think at that point out I

0:37:30.480 --> 0:37:32.520
<v Speaker 1>already put like two music projects out. He knew it

0:37:32.520 --> 0:37:34.440
<v Speaker 1>wasn't really I went fucking with us. I was like,

0:37:34.480 --> 0:37:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go back to you know, to to to

0:37:36.480 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>what I know type ship. And my cousin had just

0:37:38.680 --> 0:37:42.440
<v Speaker 1>got shot, he almost died, So that turned it all

0:37:42.480 --> 0:37:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the way up, you know what I mean. My focus

0:37:44.160 --> 0:37:45.880
<v Speaker 1>wasn't on music at all. I would just say that

0:37:46.000 --> 0:37:49.080
<v Speaker 1>before like this was like your third hustle or something.

0:37:49.120 --> 0:37:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Like that supposed to your main thing. I never did nothing.

0:37:52.600 --> 0:37:55.239
<v Speaker 1>I never had no job when I was younger, I

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:57.080
<v Speaker 1>was I never got no bad guys. I used to

0:37:57.120 --> 0:37:58.880
<v Speaker 1>be so good at music for this not to be.

0:37:59.120 --> 0:38:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I every listen to music like growing up, only like

0:38:01.560 --> 0:38:03.520
<v Speaker 1>in passing you know TV and like music videos and

0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:06.919
<v Speaker 1>you're like, but I feel like music is music. Music

0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:09.759
<v Speaker 1>not hard to do, especially like when I think at

0:38:09.800 --> 0:38:12.839
<v Speaker 1>rapping music, right, I don't really I don't what's good?

0:38:13.040 --> 0:38:14.759
<v Speaker 1>You feel me? Because there's so many different types of

0:38:14.800 --> 0:38:16.960
<v Speaker 1>rap music you can be you know, treat that good

0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:19.480
<v Speaker 1>and Bully good and Little fe Fiasco good and you

0:38:19.600 --> 0:38:23.719
<v Speaker 1>feel me. It's so many different snoop a good, sneak

0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:25.799
<v Speaker 1>is good. I love, you know, I like Bace ship.

0:38:25.920 --> 0:38:28.520
<v Speaker 1>So it's like it's a about my colum, but it's

0:38:28.560 --> 0:38:30.960
<v Speaker 1>like it's so many different kinds of good. I think

0:38:31.040 --> 0:38:33.000
<v Speaker 1>in hip hop you just really need your story. And

0:38:33.040 --> 0:38:34.399
<v Speaker 1>if you got a story, you know how to tell

0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:36.759
<v Speaker 1>it right, you can be successful with this ship. So, um,

0:38:38.200 --> 0:38:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I think I think it was you and Tyler conversation

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and he said, um, you know, being a rapper is

0:38:44.960 --> 0:38:48.920
<v Speaker 1>so like like I'm paraphrasing obviously, but it's so like

0:38:49.000 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 1>the lowest level of the totem pole. But uh, and

0:38:56.960 --> 0:38:58.919
<v Speaker 1>I think you said even back in the days, you said,

0:38:58.960 --> 0:39:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I think you said in the days, you know, it

0:39:01.680 --> 0:39:04.640
<v Speaker 1>was the dance up, it was the DJ, and then

0:39:04.680 --> 0:39:07.000
<v Speaker 1>it was the rap at the last it's the easiest

0:39:07.080 --> 0:39:09.279
<v Speaker 1>entry point. It's easy. And I think that it's much

0:39:09.320 --> 0:39:10.880
<v Speaker 1>just the easiest entry point. I think that's why hip

0:39:10.920 --> 0:39:13.960
<v Speaker 1>hop is so important to people like impoverished communities, because

0:39:14.719 --> 0:39:16.319
<v Speaker 1>to say, you gotta have a good boys, you gotta

0:39:16.360 --> 0:39:17.840
<v Speaker 1>know how to hold a note, you gotta have a

0:39:17.840 --> 0:39:21.160
<v Speaker 1>good memory. You don't gotta know you want to play instruments,

0:39:21.160 --> 0:39:23.560
<v Speaker 1>you gotta practice and blah blah. To rap are you

0:39:23.600 --> 0:39:25.719
<v Speaker 1>didn't have? You know, anybody can wake up one day

0:39:25.719 --> 0:39:27.719
<v Speaker 1>and be like, oh I'm a rapper, and somebody can say,

0:39:27.760 --> 0:39:29.160
<v Speaker 1>oh rap, And then you can do it if you

0:39:29.239 --> 0:39:31.239
<v Speaker 1>just pick up say I play the guitar, and you

0:39:31.360 --> 0:39:33.200
<v Speaker 1>try to pick that motherfucker be gonna miraish her. So

0:39:33.560 --> 0:39:36.800
<v Speaker 1>so it's like the lowest entry point to being a

0:39:36.960 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 1>creative in music, I feel, and I think that's why

0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 1>so many people embrace it, and that's why we've had

0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:44.520
<v Speaker 1>so many great rappers over time, because it's something that

0:39:44.640 --> 0:39:46.440
<v Speaker 1>you can literally pick up overnight and you don't need

0:39:46.520 --> 0:39:48.200
<v Speaker 1>nothing to learn how to do it. You don't need

0:39:48.280 --> 0:39:50.359
<v Speaker 1>no instruments, you'll need none of that. You can really

0:39:50.400 --> 0:39:52.520
<v Speaker 1>sit inside your own head and you know, become good.

0:39:52.600 --> 0:39:55.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that's why it's really important and why it's

0:39:55.760 --> 0:40:00.040
<v Speaker 1>becoming the most dominant thing. That's crazy. That's crazy. You

0:40:00.280 --> 0:40:02.879
<v Speaker 1>produce now. I can't do none of that. I can't

0:40:02.880 --> 0:40:05.759
<v Speaker 1>turn on pro tools, you can't even turn it off.

0:40:05.920 --> 0:40:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I can't do none of that. That's why you don't

0:40:09.560 --> 0:40:12.960
<v Speaker 1>want to even learn. I'm cool. I mean my thing

0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:15.239
<v Speaker 1>is like I can learn this squa, I can save

0:40:15.239 --> 0:40:16.520
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of money, but like I might know

0:40:16.640 --> 0:40:18.920
<v Speaker 1>somebody who like nice, and now they can pay their

0:40:18.960 --> 0:40:21.560
<v Speaker 1>bills off off that budget and be my engineer. I

0:40:21.600 --> 0:40:23.160
<v Speaker 1>ain't really greedy with it like that, you know what

0:40:23.200 --> 0:40:24.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, Like, if I know this nigga spend his

0:40:24.920 --> 0:40:27.520
<v Speaker 1>whole life engineering, why am I gonna try to do

0:40:27.600 --> 0:40:29.440
<v Speaker 1>it When it's somebody out there that you know that's

0:40:29.520 --> 0:40:31.759
<v Speaker 1>nice that I can probably elevate what I'm doing. That's

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:33.080
<v Speaker 1>why they were trying to make beat And I'm like,

0:40:33.080 --> 0:40:35.239
<v Speaker 1>that's like thirty niggas that I know that make beat.

0:40:35.280 --> 0:40:36.759
<v Speaker 1>Why do I need to be the thirty first nigg

0:40:36.800 --> 0:40:38.719
<v Speaker 1>and make beats when they can just make the beat

0:40:38.719 --> 0:40:40.040
<v Speaker 1>from me, you know what I'm saying, might as well

0:40:40.080 --> 0:40:41.880
<v Speaker 1>to split it up. So what's beyond the rhyme? And

0:40:41.920 --> 0:40:44.520
<v Speaker 1>then assuming that that's the entry point, like you said

0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:46.839
<v Speaker 1>you want to do more, I was just saying as

0:40:46.880 --> 0:40:49.320
<v Speaker 1>far as like he was based on me and Tyler conversations,

0:40:49.360 --> 0:40:51.200
<v Speaker 1>the entry point meaning that if you want to make music,

0:40:51.640 --> 0:40:53.520
<v Speaker 1>being being a rapper is a kind of the easiest

0:40:53.560 --> 0:40:55.640
<v Speaker 1>thing to do, and you can just talk about yourself

0:40:55.680 --> 0:40:57.040
<v Speaker 1>with people. Listen, you know what I mean to talk

0:40:57.040 --> 0:40:59.040
<v Speaker 1>about what you know I'm saying. You know, if you

0:40:59.120 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 1>know you're trying to be me, I'll say what you

0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:02.680
<v Speaker 1>can't sing? You pretty wood? Like you know what I'm saying.

0:41:03.040 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 1>Anybody could be me what I'm saying beyond that point

0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:10.640
<v Speaker 1>like as in music, music or other man. My thing

0:41:10.760 --> 0:41:12.279
<v Speaker 1>is like like I was telling like saying earlier, I

0:41:12.280 --> 0:41:14.759
<v Speaker 1>ain't never really want to do nothing, So I'm just appreciative,

0:41:14.880 --> 0:41:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Like not that I didn't want to do nothing, just

0:41:16.440 --> 0:41:18.960
<v Speaker 1>wasn't in my mind, Like I wasn't raised in no

0:41:19.080 --> 0:41:22.040
<v Speaker 1>place where nigga's got dreams like if you're tall or

0:41:22.120 --> 0:41:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you big, you can play basketball. Yeah, exactly, Ship like that.

0:41:26.440 --> 0:41:29.800
<v Speaker 1>So it's like, um, I was cool with having a

0:41:29.840 --> 0:41:32.520
<v Speaker 1>good job, you know what I mean, journ I remember

0:41:32.560 --> 0:41:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to work here because I dropped out

0:41:34.560 --> 0:41:37.160
<v Speaker 1>when I was fifteen, So I was trying to get

0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.759
<v Speaker 1>ups jobs and warehouse and staff marked also the ship.

0:41:40.800 --> 0:41:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I oulder how he was just televie, but then I'm

0:41:42.640 --> 0:41:45.520
<v Speaker 1>a minor. I can't get no job with me. I

0:41:45.600 --> 0:41:47.640
<v Speaker 1>feel like I just got so many opportunities for me

0:41:48.080 --> 0:41:49.600
<v Speaker 1>based off with just who I am as a person,

0:41:50.120 --> 0:41:52.359
<v Speaker 1>and some of these opportunities. To be honest, I feel

0:41:52.360 --> 0:41:53.920
<v Speaker 1>like it's gonna do better than music. You know, if

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:56.520
<v Speaker 1>you think about no film TELEVI you talk about my videos.

0:41:56.640 --> 0:41:57.960
<v Speaker 1>If you can make a video triput, you can make

0:41:58.000 --> 0:42:01.000
<v Speaker 1>a show, you can make it on the make a

0:42:01.040 --> 0:42:03.320
<v Speaker 1>series exactly, like I don't know, some good things like

0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Coogler and I can tell I was sorry to

0:42:05.520 --> 0:42:07.680
<v Speaker 1>cut you up. I can tell your videos just your ideas,

0:42:07.760 --> 0:42:09.880
<v Speaker 1>because it's not like these directors go out and make

0:42:09.960 --> 0:42:12.200
<v Speaker 1>these these type of videos without you. You know what

0:42:12.400 --> 0:42:14.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. So you know, I peeped that. Here's the

0:42:14.800 --> 0:42:18.879
<v Speaker 1>craziest thing, right, Um. I looked at uh Fat Joe,

0:42:18.920 --> 0:42:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I think on on Instagram live or something, and he

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:23.520
<v Speaker 1>said that what a lot of people didn't notice was

0:42:23.840 --> 0:42:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Pun didn't have a lot of records for artists because

0:42:26.719 --> 0:42:29.200
<v Speaker 1>artists didn't want to get on a record with Pun

0:42:29.360 --> 0:42:31.560
<v Speaker 1>because they always looked at it like Punt to burn

0:42:31.640 --> 0:42:33.640
<v Speaker 1>them down or something like that. One of those things

0:42:33.680 --> 0:42:35.279
<v Speaker 1>that I've noticed with you is you got like a

0:42:35.840 --> 0:42:37.759
<v Speaker 1>head to head record with Roys the five nine and

0:42:37.800 --> 0:42:41.960
<v Speaker 1>worse the five nine similar serves as that purpose too

0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:43.600
<v Speaker 1>is a lot of people, you know, they want to

0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:45.160
<v Speaker 1>be cool Roys, they don't want to get on the

0:42:45.440 --> 0:42:48.839
<v Speaker 1>record with them. So what made you? Because I knew

0:42:48.880 --> 0:42:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I was kind of the best version. I just and

0:42:55.239 --> 0:42:56.880
<v Speaker 1>I did had the best version. They need to be

0:42:56.920 --> 0:43:04.839
<v Speaker 1>playing favorites. It ain't even close. Okay, Coo, I met

0:43:05.400 --> 0:43:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Cricket Eye, Cricket Atronome, I've seen them somewhere. So yeah, man,

0:43:09.960 --> 0:43:11.879
<v Speaker 1>I think Cody was supposed to be on the court.

0:43:11.880 --> 0:43:14.560
<v Speaker 1>They can be on it, which I made it real quick.

0:43:15.280 --> 0:43:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm just happy I was on it. You feel me

0:43:16.760 --> 0:43:18.920
<v Speaker 1>like you know you don't get them opportunities every day.

0:43:19.480 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 1>So I love that we've got noise. I love it

0:43:23.920 --> 0:43:27.320
<v Speaker 1>so so Um, but is there like a sense of

0:43:27.440 --> 0:43:31.879
<v Speaker 1>nervousness because you're in uh I don't want to say

0:43:31.880 --> 0:43:35.239
<v Speaker 1>that in that world, but um, you're part of people

0:43:35.280 --> 0:43:38.080
<v Speaker 1>consider real lyricism. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. And

0:43:38.120 --> 0:43:39.680
<v Speaker 1>then when you get the chance to work with a

0:43:41.400 --> 0:43:43.640
<v Speaker 1>cord Day, I don't know. I always placed his name

0:43:43.920 --> 0:43:47.719
<v Speaker 1>Corday eminem or a voice? Does it? Does it? Does

0:43:47.760 --> 0:43:50.120
<v Speaker 1>it bring what? Does it bring a sense of competition

0:43:50.200 --> 0:43:52.360
<v Speaker 1>out of you? Or do you even consider yourself a

0:43:52.440 --> 0:43:54.640
<v Speaker 1>lyricis because it sounds like you might not even know

0:43:54.719 --> 0:43:58.480
<v Speaker 1>your lyricis. I mean it's like it depends, like it

0:43:58.560 --> 0:44:00.800
<v Speaker 1>all depends on how you you and you feel me

0:44:00.880 --> 0:44:02.759
<v Speaker 1>because like I said, I listen to a lot of ships,

0:44:02.800 --> 0:44:04.840
<v Speaker 1>so like I think he fought the lyricius When I

0:44:04.880 --> 0:44:07.520
<v Speaker 1>say that at me, like I'm crazy, it's just kid,

0:44:07.560 --> 0:44:09.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't know what somebody talking about. Don't mean they're

0:44:09.680 --> 0:44:12.319
<v Speaker 1>now hard. So I mean with me, it's like, yeah,

0:44:12.360 --> 0:44:14.480
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate, but that's how I got music from no

0:44:14.600 --> 0:44:16.759
<v Speaker 1>fucking as far as on the bigger scale or just

0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:20.919
<v Speaker 1>in general world evidence in DJ Babou was making beast

0:44:20.960 --> 0:44:22.759
<v Speaker 1>for me when I was younger, nobody gave the ship

0:44:23.200 --> 0:44:26.320
<v Speaker 1>and you know, ill mind and I don't forget nobody

0:44:26.400 --> 0:44:28.080
<v Speaker 1>kill her. It was the gang motherfucker's give me ships.

0:44:28.480 --> 0:44:32.279
<v Speaker 1>Scoop the veal into nor and D and comment like

0:44:32.400 --> 0:44:34.120

<v Speaker 1>I got to be easier work as a comment you

0:44:38.400 --> 0:44:39.520
<v Speaker 1>feel me. I don't know where it's had, but I

<v Speaker 1>got it. So like like that, like I appreciate the

0:44:44.400 --> 0:44:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to be listening to your music to these last couple

0:45:17.760 --> 0:45:21.560

0:45:21.640 --> 0:45:23.600
<v Speaker 1>the records or or yeah, I used to I used

0:45:23.640 --> 0:45:24.920
<v Speaker 1>to feel like that. It's funny now. I had a

0:45:24.960 --> 0:45:26.480
<v Speaker 1>point of time with music, right, So I had my

0:45:26.520 --> 0:45:29.400
<v Speaker 1>first album come out, and I'm like, all right, cool, um,

0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:31.080
<v Speaker 1>I got a lot, you know, shoot off my chest,

0:45:31.080 --> 0:45:32.680
<v Speaker 1>blah blah have you. But at that point in time,

0:45:33.040 --> 0:45:35.240
<v Speaker 1>I ain't really had that. It was still cracking Insentially,

0:45:35.239 --> 0:45:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't like one bear with my sister and my

0:45:36.760 --> 0:45:38.799
<v Speaker 1>mama in the middle of like some whole other ship

0:45:38.880 --> 0:45:40.960
<v Speaker 1>that was going on, and I was like, you feel me.

0:45:41.000 --> 0:45:42.799
<v Speaker 1>It was like, man, your album is out of it. Yeah,

0:45:42.880 --> 0:45:45.360
<v Speaker 1>but that's like my story. Yeah, it didn't matter. So

0:45:45.400 --> 0:45:46.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like at this point in time, it's like, all right,

0:45:47.400 --> 0:45:49.200
<v Speaker 1>all I got from that first album is nigga is

0:45:49.239 --> 0:45:51.839
<v Speaker 1>doing my face, like the nigga is matter. Nigga's always

0:45:51.880 --> 0:45:54.520
<v Speaker 1>been my voice. Nigg is always do my voice, and

0:45:54.600 --> 0:45:56.680
<v Speaker 1>nigga's kind of will see if the nigga that sound

0:45:56.760 --> 0:45:59.439
<v Speaker 1>like that had a gas nigga everything, that's me at

0:45:59.480 --> 0:46:01.120
<v Speaker 1>it because I I used to be out like that.

0:46:01.200 --> 0:46:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't sunk with other niggas, Like if you wanted

0:46:03.000 --> 0:46:04.520
<v Speaker 1>my homies, you don't. But I don't know a gang

0:46:04.560 --> 0:46:06.319
<v Speaker 1>of people from a gang of the neighborhoods, Like, I'm

0:46:06.320 --> 0:46:09.160
<v Speaker 1>not that stupid. That's how you get killed. I was

0:46:09.760 --> 0:46:11.400
<v Speaker 1>that wrong in My mom always said Mario man To

0:46:11.400 --> 0:46:13.560
<v Speaker 1>stated your cell type ship, which goes against what hip

0:46:13.560 --> 0:46:17.319
<v Speaker 1>hop is. So when sometimes I say this came out,

0:46:17.400 --> 0:46:18.879
<v Speaker 1>I was doing good blah blah, I want to good

0:46:18.880 --> 0:46:23.280
<v Speaker 1>trajectory no idea and death Yam. They have a conflict

0:46:23.360 --> 0:46:26.080
<v Speaker 1>of of kind of ideas. No I d kind of

0:46:26.160 --> 0:46:29.200
<v Speaker 1>leave death jam. So at that point in time, I'm

0:46:29.239 --> 0:46:31.040
<v Speaker 1>just trying to figure it out. I don't really know

0:46:31.120 --> 0:46:34.279
<v Speaker 1>what I'm doing. And then I was doing shows just

0:46:34.360 --> 0:46:37.359
<v Speaker 1>in the meantime, and I realized, like it felt weird,

0:46:37.520 --> 0:46:39.279
<v Speaker 1>like man, I'm out here in this different country and

0:46:39.320 --> 0:46:41.480
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah blah, and all I got to do.

0:46:41.760 --> 0:46:43.120
<v Speaker 1>All I can tell Nigga is is that you know

0:46:43.160 --> 0:46:45.080
<v Speaker 1>our gang bang you feel me like music. But that's

0:46:45.120 --> 0:46:46.560
<v Speaker 1>all I had seen in my life, so I don't

0:46:46.560 --> 0:46:50.279
<v Speaker 1>know how to read articulate much. So um, I was like,

0:46:50.280 --> 0:46:51.680
<v Speaker 1>all right, I'm never doing this again. Like even with

0:46:51.719 --> 0:46:53.640
<v Speaker 1>the Big Fisterio, I'm like, I made the album so

0:46:53.719 --> 0:46:56.319
<v Speaker 1>it could get sinks for movies, so I had God

0:46:56.440 --> 0:46:58.560
<v Speaker 1>made it with that in mind. Yeah, every single and

0:46:58.680 --> 0:47:00.959
<v Speaker 1>almost I think like probably eight you know songs got six.

0:47:01.440 --> 0:47:03.920
<v Speaker 1>So the reason I made it because we had got

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:08.440
<v Speaker 1>an offer to do. Um was it? It was the

0:47:08.719 --> 0:47:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Was it the army or was it FIFA? What was first? FIFA? Right?

0:47:13.560 --> 0:47:17.080
<v Speaker 1>What call of duty gave me? Offer? How much was it?

0:47:17.440 --> 0:47:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Like you, I'm trying to see if it is the

0:47:22.920 --> 0:47:25.239
<v Speaker 1>right story because which one was hired was a call

0:47:25.320 --> 0:47:33.799
<v Speaker 1>of duty or FIFA? But that FIFA was higher? Right?

0:47:34.080 --> 0:47:36.120
<v Speaker 1>All right? So call it basically call of duty gave me.

0:47:37.920 --> 0:47:39.360
<v Speaker 1>But that call of duty, call it what call of

0:47:39.400 --> 0:47:41.080
<v Speaker 1>duty gave me to do one song that they didn't

0:47:41.080 --> 0:47:43.120
<v Speaker 1>even use as more than my whole album budget. Okay,

0:47:43.160 --> 0:47:46.080
<v Speaker 1>but lets let let's be let's be let's be um

0:47:46.600 --> 0:47:49.560
<v Speaker 1>precise if you can, but you do you get published

0:47:49.560 --> 0:47:51.440
<v Speaker 1>in off of that or this is a buyoutum now

0:47:51.480 --> 0:47:56.600
<v Speaker 1>you okay, call of duty license notice, but some people

0:47:57.360 --> 0:47:59.080
<v Speaker 1>you can do about it. But they they knew music,

0:47:59.320 --> 0:48:01.279
<v Speaker 1>So I still got paid an they didn't use it.

0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:03.919
<v Speaker 1>I got a FIFA thing, they didn't use it. Okay.

0:48:04.000 --> 0:48:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I got a FIFA thing for Champions League, and that

0:48:06.880 --> 0:48:09.800
<v Speaker 1>was crazy and then I was like, all right, feva

0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:12.160
<v Speaker 1>money different, that's soccer. I was like, this makes sense.

0:48:12.480 --> 0:48:14.879
<v Speaker 1>So the years later, I don't even a boris knew

0:48:14.920 --> 0:48:19.520
<v Speaker 1>that in the room. So when when Call of Duty

0:48:19.560 --> 0:48:23.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't use it, um, the U S. Army picked it up.

0:48:24.280 --> 0:48:26.000
<v Speaker 1>The Army picked it up. I got paid for it again,

0:48:26.400 --> 0:48:28.800
<v Speaker 1>they didn't use it. Then after the Army didn't use it,

0:48:29.239 --> 0:48:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Spider Man Movie use it. So this is all the meantime.

0:48:32.960 --> 0:48:34.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm making this album and I'm torning. I'm like, all right,

0:48:34.920 --> 0:48:36.360
<v Speaker 1>so if I can get tense songs, every one of

0:48:36.400 --> 0:48:38.920
<v Speaker 1>these songs, can you get singed? Then I don't need

0:48:39.000 --> 0:48:41.600
<v Speaker 1>nothing else, you feel me. So then I made this

0:48:41.680 --> 0:48:44.400
<v Speaker 1>song called back Back. I made it for Baywatch. They

0:48:44.480 --> 0:48:46.640
<v Speaker 1>put in the Baywatch trailer and I noticed that, like,

0:48:47.320 --> 0:48:51.239
<v Speaker 1>k exactly, so what's it called? Um, don't see it

0:48:51.320 --> 0:48:54.160
<v Speaker 1>there exactly when you came you came to seat, So

0:48:54.719 --> 0:48:58.640
<v Speaker 1>what's McCall it? What's the name name? Damn? What's her name? Um?

0:49:00.880 --> 0:49:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Fuck no? So I make I make back back right

0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:07.239
<v Speaker 1>and we go the ohay is director and like it

0:49:07.360 --> 0:49:08.920
<v Speaker 1>was a you know, the music director kept putting my

0:49:08.920 --> 0:49:10.800
<v Speaker 1>ship in a certain ship. So I was I noticed,

0:49:10.840 --> 0:49:12.879
<v Speaker 1>like what songs kept getting singing, Blue sage kept getting

0:49:12.920 --> 0:49:15.719
<v Speaker 1>sink and someone nor singing. I noticed like it was

0:49:15.800 --> 0:49:19.080
<v Speaker 1>like they was going for the most abrupt sounds to

0:49:19.400 --> 0:49:22.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of separate the scenes. So then I started making

0:49:22.120 --> 0:49:24.640
<v Speaker 1>music with that in mind. So back back guy Um,

0:49:25.840 --> 0:49:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I got back back in Baywatch, Black Panther, and like

0:49:31.320 --> 0:49:33.200
<v Speaker 1>one other thing, and then a lot of the other

0:49:33.239 --> 0:49:35.279
<v Speaker 1>songs was getting scence. So basically I was that changed

0:49:35.320 --> 0:49:37.359
<v Speaker 1>my whole life, and then that changed the torn because

0:49:37.360 --> 0:49:38.839
<v Speaker 1>now I could play. It was the point of time

0:49:38.840 --> 0:49:40.560
<v Speaker 1>when I was playing festivals, no rappers on the stage

0:49:40.600 --> 0:49:42.120
<v Speaker 1>but me and Golden. It was the only rappers on

0:49:42.160 --> 0:49:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the on the build unless you play hip hop festival

0:49:44.480 --> 0:49:46.239
<v Speaker 1>like Splash or something to be like Prime and be

0:49:46.320 --> 0:49:48.000
<v Speaker 1>headline or some ship like that, like some cool ship

0:49:48.080 --> 0:49:49.759
<v Speaker 1>like that. But other than that, if it was no

0:49:49.800 --> 0:49:51.480
<v Speaker 1>real hip hop festival, it'd be two rappers on the

0:49:51.480 --> 0:49:53.600
<v Speaker 1>whole festival, be Me and Golden, something like Damn Old

0:49:53.640 --> 0:49:56.360
<v Speaker 1>who gold Link for Sea. So I was like, all right,

0:49:56.400 --> 0:50:00.600
<v Speaker 1>if it's fifty festivals this year, and I know for

0:50:00.680 --> 0:50:02.920
<v Speaker 1>a fact I can play every single one of them

0:50:02.920 --> 0:50:04.720
<v Speaker 1>because they're not even gonna want to play in them crowds.

0:50:05.000 --> 0:50:07.279
<v Speaker 1>Then I'm just I was just counting the money. So

0:50:07.480 --> 0:50:08.799
<v Speaker 1>I had like a two or three year span where

0:50:08.800 --> 0:50:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't even wrapping about the games. I don't even

0:50:10.640 --> 0:50:12.400
<v Speaker 1>cursing really was, So I really wasn't because I was

0:50:12.440 --> 0:50:14.640
<v Speaker 1>thinking about these shows. I wasn't saying the again ship

0:50:14.760 --> 0:50:17.040
<v Speaker 1>like that. And then like you know, something happened in

0:50:17.080 --> 0:50:18.680
<v Speaker 1>life and I was like, man that I'm gonna be

0:50:18.800 --> 0:50:20.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of more. I'm just gonna do what I do.

0:50:20.800 --> 0:50:22.839
<v Speaker 1>But I cleaned up. But it's like it was really

0:50:22.880 --> 0:50:26.320
<v Speaker 1>worth it to me because it's like it was wasted years. Wow,

0:50:26.840 --> 0:50:28.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, chasing the money, blowing up, the way that

0:50:28.920 --> 0:50:33.040
<v Speaker 1>you approached making the music for the certain opportunities. That's

0:50:33.120 --> 0:50:35.480
<v Speaker 1>that's that's when Bad, That's when Bad and Boogie was out.

0:50:35.520 --> 0:50:37.040
<v Speaker 1>So it's like, all right, you gotta think about how

0:50:37.080 --> 0:50:39.320
<v Speaker 1>many they help was doing all kind of alien movies,

0:50:39.360 --> 0:50:42.040
<v Speaker 1>all kind of superhero movies. Marvel was popping, so they

0:50:42.120 --> 0:50:45.040
<v Speaker 1>can't play these songs essentially when they playing in these

0:50:45.280 --> 0:50:47.160
<v Speaker 1>in these movies. So what I would do is I

0:50:47.200 --> 0:50:48.840
<v Speaker 1>would look at kind of scores. I was watching like

0:50:48.920 --> 0:50:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Blade Runner, I was watching Certain Ship, and I was

0:50:50.680 --> 0:50:52.440
<v Speaker 1>seeing what that kind of music sound like, and I

0:50:52.480 --> 0:50:54.640
<v Speaker 1>was looking at how international things worked. They was putting

0:50:54.640 --> 0:50:55.719
<v Speaker 1>a lot of playing a lot of older you know,

0:50:56.040 --> 0:50:58.879
<v Speaker 1>old UK music and ship like that, and I've kind

0:50:58.920 --> 0:51:00.880
<v Speaker 1>of just figured out looked at we looked at what

0:51:01.000 --> 0:51:02.600
<v Speaker 1>movies was coming out, and we just made songs that

0:51:02.600 --> 0:51:04.360
<v Speaker 1>would fitting certain things. And it makes sense if you

0:51:04.440 --> 0:51:07.280
<v Speaker 1>listen to the catalog, at least when I was listening recently,

0:51:07.920 --> 0:51:11.320
<v Speaker 1>each song sounds different. Now it makes sense why, Like

0:51:11.400 --> 0:51:13.279
<v Speaker 1>you're thinking in yeah, this is for this, this for

0:51:13.400 --> 0:51:14.759
<v Speaker 1>this is for this. I didn't have a two old

0:51:14.760 --> 0:51:17.480
<v Speaker 1>projects certain shows for action movie starting shows for their

0:51:17.520 --> 0:51:19.480
<v Speaker 1>startin shows for that. We were doing that and to

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:21.600
<v Speaker 1>this day and we just got another one for this

0:51:21.680 --> 0:51:25.440
<v Speaker 1>other movie. So I mean it worked. But essentially it's

0:51:25.480 --> 0:51:28.960
<v Speaker 1>like I had some lives and hommies passing, like some

0:51:29.000 --> 0:51:31.320
<v Speaker 1>family members passing ship, and like it just kind of

0:51:31.400 --> 0:51:34.200
<v Speaker 1>re reassessed like the way I looked at like because

0:51:34.239 --> 0:51:36.080
<v Speaker 1>like you know, you get older, you gotta realize what

0:51:36.280 --> 0:51:38.320
<v Speaker 1>matter you feel me And I think I got to

0:51:38.360 --> 0:51:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the points where I kind of had a better understanding

0:51:40.280 --> 0:51:44.600
<v Speaker 1>that recently. Does does it ever? Does the fans ever

0:51:44.719 --> 0:51:46.520
<v Speaker 1>get on your case, because if you're making the music

0:51:46.640 --> 0:51:49.880
<v Speaker 1>for these opportunities, then you're not necessarily making it anymore

0:51:49.920 --> 0:51:52.160
<v Speaker 1>for the fans. I mean, but who are the fans?

0:51:52.280 --> 0:51:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Feel the fan the fans like I'm asking, like, really,

0:51:55.200 --> 0:51:56.960
<v Speaker 1>who are the fans? And fans are based on your

0:51:56.960 --> 0:51:58.840
<v Speaker 1>point of view. So if you if you're making this

0:51:58.960 --> 0:52:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and this is working here and look this way, the

0:52:00.680 --> 0:52:01.920
<v Speaker 1>needs are the fans. If you look at way it

0:52:02.000 --> 0:52:03.400
<v Speaker 1>needs a fans, it's only gonna be somebody to like

0:52:03.480 --> 0:52:05.399
<v Speaker 1>some ship, so you can't pay attention. And the way

0:52:05.400 --> 0:52:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I looked at it was like, man, it's I hadn't

0:52:07.000 --> 0:52:08.560
<v Speaker 1>done so much worse ship than made a song, and

0:52:08.600 --> 0:52:12.319
<v Speaker 1>they don't like I got motherfucker's that's gonna be really

0:52:12.360 --> 0:52:13.840
<v Speaker 1>mad for the rest of their life for me, so

0:52:14.239 --> 0:52:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I care about it. Sounds crazy, but I care more

0:52:16.440 --> 0:52:18.040
<v Speaker 1>about the niggas I didn't done wrong in my life

0:52:18.080 --> 0:52:19.480
<v Speaker 1>that I was like, you know, really done something too.

0:52:19.719 --> 0:52:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Then I do a motherfucker who don't care about who

0:52:22.120 --> 0:52:23.400
<v Speaker 1>don't like a song you fee me? I want to

0:52:23.440 --> 0:52:26.080
<v Speaker 1>tell them theyket sorry not to necessarily music people just

0:52:26.080 --> 0:52:27.960
<v Speaker 1>add where I'm at in life right now. So I

0:52:28.120 --> 0:52:31.920
<v Speaker 1>understand it. But everybody like music is emotional thing, and

0:52:32.080 --> 0:52:33.360
<v Speaker 1>like I knew I was gonna be able to do

0:52:33.480 --> 0:52:36.960
<v Speaker 1>music because I was good at certain ship. So if

0:52:37.000 --> 0:52:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I can convince you that you're mad, so you go

0:52:40.160 --> 0:52:43.200
<v Speaker 1>around the corner and whatever, I know, I can get

0:52:43.200 --> 0:52:45.839
<v Speaker 1>these nigga and listen to a song. When I first

0:52:45.960 --> 0:52:48.040
<v Speaker 1>started met SID and telling on them, I wasn't making

0:52:48.080 --> 0:52:49.600
<v Speaker 1>the music. I want to rapper. That's why I don't

0:52:49.640 --> 0:52:51.680
<v Speaker 1>got no rap name, because I ask me my name,

0:52:51.680 --> 0:52:53.080
<v Speaker 1>because I did the verset and it just I was

0:52:53.080 --> 0:52:54.560
<v Speaker 1>told my name and they put it in the ship

0:52:54.600 --> 0:53:01.080
<v Speaker 1>and that was my raping. So now the North North right,

0:53:02.560 --> 0:53:06.840
<v Speaker 1>all right, now we're understanding Long Beach is its own entity.

0:53:07.400 --> 0:53:12.160
<v Speaker 1>It's its own city. Now it's like you're you're narrowed down,

0:53:12.239 --> 0:53:14.400
<v Speaker 1>like now I'm just not from North As. I'm not

0:53:14.480 --> 0:53:18.400
<v Speaker 1>just from Long Beach. I'm from North North. Can you

0:53:18.760 --> 0:53:21.479
<v Speaker 1>break that short, person that's never been to California before?

0:53:21.840 --> 0:53:24.200
<v Speaker 1>What is Nor North? I mean? Yeah, it's like every

0:53:24.280 --> 0:53:25.920
<v Speaker 1>every city has a segment, you know what I mean,

0:53:25.960 --> 0:53:30.320
<v Speaker 1>And and the segments have segments. So I feel like

0:53:30.360 --> 0:53:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the way it is is nobody had ever said that

0:53:34.520 --> 0:53:36.279
<v Speaker 1>from I got a gang of homies that's from North

0:53:36.360 --> 0:53:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Long Beach, but they from East Side gangs because I

0:53:39.440 --> 0:53:41.880
<v Speaker 1>was the bigger gangs or you know, so when you

0:53:42.120 --> 0:53:44.560
<v Speaker 1>because a person that don't know, when you say they

0:53:44.719 --> 0:53:47.880
<v Speaker 1>from that's you're saying that's the set they joined exactly exactly.

0:53:48.239 --> 0:53:50.200
<v Speaker 1>But it's like it's a gang. It's g g Nique

0:53:50.239 --> 0:53:51.520
<v Speaker 1>is like all the dudes that's from the North, that's

0:53:51.560 --> 0:53:53.920
<v Speaker 1>from Eastide gangs. Like that's reparables for me. But at

0:53:53.920 --> 0:53:55.520
<v Speaker 1>the point in time, it's just you know, it's the

0:53:55.560 --> 0:53:57.840
<v Speaker 1>crowd like people do would make their most sense. And

0:53:57.920 --> 0:54:00.000
<v Speaker 1>also with the racial so we say this North Side,

0:54:00.000 --> 0:54:01.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a lot of the big games. Well

0:54:02.040 --> 0:54:03.719
<v Speaker 1>we got the two biggest games gonna be on the

0:54:03.760 --> 0:54:04.960
<v Speaker 1>way on the east of me and twenties in the

0:54:05.000 --> 0:54:08.520
<v Speaker 1>same is the biggest hoods. That's where tradey from. Yeah exactly.

0:54:08.840 --> 0:54:11.080
<v Speaker 1>So it's like most people are just gonna be from there.

0:54:11.120 --> 0:54:12.719
<v Speaker 1>And I got the homies that is from there, an

0:54:12.719 --> 0:54:14.279
<v Speaker 1>homies that was from there, and then came back to

0:54:15.000 --> 0:54:16.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot of stuff happened like that. When you kids,

0:54:16.680 --> 0:54:19.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, you're trying to find your way. But it's

0:54:19.280 --> 0:54:21.759
<v Speaker 1>funny North North wasn't even gone I thought it was

0:54:21.800 --> 0:54:23.279
<v Speaker 1>too burnt out because so let me ask you some

0:54:23.360 --> 0:54:24.799
<v Speaker 1>of him sorry to cut you off. Is that why

0:54:24.880 --> 0:54:27.600
<v Speaker 1>snooping them rep east side? Yeah? Is that why the

0:54:28.080 --> 0:54:31.920
<v Speaker 1>crazy thing about snoopers? I'm sorry throwing these games side horrible.

0:54:33.400 --> 0:54:37.759
<v Speaker 1>I just said that he's rubbing off because I'm listening

0:54:37.760 --> 0:54:41.400
<v Speaker 1>to I'm sorry and Christian cribb'all like I just got

0:54:41.520 --> 0:54:43.200
<v Speaker 1>got me. I'm sorry good, I'm just like, so, yeah,

0:54:43.200 --> 0:54:45.279
<v Speaker 1>that's why they say that east out of the now. Also,

0:54:45.320 --> 0:54:48.319
<v Speaker 1>I would hear certain songs or snoop was safe ship

0:54:48.440 --> 0:54:50.719
<v Speaker 1>that's on the north Okay, like he said on the

0:54:50.800 --> 0:54:53.840
<v Speaker 1>intro of the Oar, stayed on fifty first thirty blocks

0:54:53.880 --> 0:54:56.600
<v Speaker 1>from the east side, like nigga, that's down the streets.

0:54:56.760 --> 0:54:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Like why you just say that you stayed on the

0:54:58.760 --> 0:55:02.400
<v Speaker 1>north like people. His father talked to him about this

0:55:02.440 --> 0:55:04.680
<v Speaker 1>a million times, like he's like, he's like and he said,

0:55:05.080 --> 0:55:07.279
<v Speaker 1>he always tell me that he appreciated that song because

0:55:07.280 --> 0:55:08.520
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know, he come from Areya. It was

0:55:08.560 --> 0:55:10.319
<v Speaker 1>clashing like what every about in the north side. Let

0:55:10.880 --> 0:55:12.879
<v Speaker 1>the songs about North North? Yeah, because like he said,

0:55:12.920 --> 0:55:14.239
<v Speaker 1>it was a point time when he was clashing with

0:55:14.280 --> 0:55:16.279
<v Speaker 1>the north, northeast, n there long and so that there's

0:55:16.280 --> 0:55:19.320
<v Speaker 1>still kind of iffy, but um, yeah, man, I just

0:55:19.360 --> 0:55:20.839
<v Speaker 1>felt like and I didn't want to put out because

0:55:20.840 --> 0:55:22.080
<v Speaker 1>it was too burnt out. I felt like it was

0:55:22.160 --> 0:55:25.160
<v Speaker 1>too real based on what was going on at the time.

0:55:25.239 --> 0:55:27.239
<v Speaker 1>You feel me like it was if you like really

0:55:27.320 --> 0:55:28.759
<v Speaker 1>listened to that song, I was doing some stupid I

0:55:28.800 --> 0:55:30.440
<v Speaker 1>should have said, should have said a lot of ships.

0:55:30.960 --> 0:55:33.640
<v Speaker 1>It is what it is. But yeah, man, that's my

0:55:33.719 --> 0:55:36.200
<v Speaker 1>only platinum plaque, So I ain't mad at it. I

0:55:36.200 --> 0:55:41.680
<v Speaker 1>ain't so so for people that didn't know. Basically, you're saying,

0:55:41.719 --> 0:55:44.400
<v Speaker 1>there's there's, there's the east side of Long Beast, but

0:55:44.400 --> 0:55:46.839
<v Speaker 1>then it's the north side of Long Beasts. Yes, gets

0:55:46.880 --> 0:55:49.960
<v Speaker 1>overlooked a lot of times because people go and they

0:55:50.120 --> 0:55:52.040
<v Speaker 1>join the east side game and in the west long

0:55:52.080 --> 0:55:53.360
<v Speaker 1>as you got the west side too. There's some real

0:55:53.480 --> 0:55:55.239
<v Speaker 1>dudes from over there. Like. But it's like the thing

0:55:55.239 --> 0:55:58.160
<v Speaker 1>about Long Beaches. I understand it because when we grow

0:55:58.200 --> 0:56:00.360
<v Speaker 1>up with those one with those racial rapping for Aians,

0:56:01.080 --> 0:56:03.200
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of racial tension and Long Beach. So

0:56:03.320 --> 0:56:07.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like, if you like it's just black a Mexican o.

0:56:07.480 --> 0:56:11.919
<v Speaker 1>So Asians and Mexicans, Asians and Indians. Yea, the Asian

0:56:11.920 --> 0:56:14.200
<v Speaker 1>and Mexicans have a really really really bad clash, like

0:56:14.560 --> 0:56:16.840
<v Speaker 1>like it's risk. It's probably worse than it's because they

0:56:16.880 --> 0:56:19.120
<v Speaker 1>look closer to each other. Asians and Mexican. Yeah, that

0:56:19.200 --> 0:56:22.359
<v Speaker 1>got a really bad worse than the Blacks Mexicans. It's

0:56:22.360 --> 0:56:24.400
<v Speaker 1>it's probably equal, to be honest, if not only were

0:56:24.400 --> 0:56:27.160
<v Speaker 1>not say worse because they're in closer proximity, some more

0:56:27.200 --> 0:56:29.359
<v Speaker 1>things can still bad right now. Yeah, to the day

0:56:29.840 --> 0:56:33.040
<v Speaker 1>when we say Asians, we are including zombies. Just Cambodia,

0:56:34.239 --> 0:56:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you know a lot like most of Southeast Asians, Cambonians,

0:56:38.440 --> 0:56:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, like you know, that's what's crazy about Long Beach,

0:56:40.600 --> 0:56:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Long Beach and mis me of Queens. They have so

0:56:42.640 --> 0:56:48.400
<v Speaker 1>many different races. Someone some wow, that's crazy. Someones historically

0:56:48.480 --> 0:56:51.320
<v Speaker 1>blood No, I don't know why I think trying to

0:56:51.320 --> 0:56:54.680
<v Speaker 1>think call him used to have There was blood blood

0:56:55.560 --> 0:56:58.320
<v Speaker 1>in Carson. I just that's how I think of in

0:56:58.400 --> 0:57:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Car and Carsonal someone's bloods for them, Parting and Compton

0:57:00.760 --> 0:57:03.120
<v Speaker 1>and Long Beach all some cripts, you know, all the

0:57:04.800 --> 0:57:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Park Village and Company especially and yeah, then you just

0:57:08.640 --> 0:57:10.840
<v Speaker 1>depend on where you at your feeling, Like like the

0:57:10.880 --> 0:57:13.520
<v Speaker 1>thing about the crib blood shit, it's already it's already established.

0:57:13.560 --> 0:57:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Like if you live over here, this is nig you

0:57:15.480 --> 0:57:17.080
<v Speaker 1>don't get the pick really, you know what I mean.

0:57:17.320 --> 0:57:20.280
<v Speaker 1>When you're a kid, if you really aware of your surrounds,

0:57:20.280 --> 0:57:21.800
<v Speaker 1>you kind of already know what's howe to defenh you.

0:57:21.920 --> 0:57:24.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, you fall on where you live at. That

0:57:24.800 --> 0:57:27.320
<v Speaker 1>was it ever crazy? Like to see somebody come to

0:57:27.360 --> 0:57:29.400
<v Speaker 1>your neighborhood were all red on or some of the

0:57:29.480 --> 0:57:31.800
<v Speaker 1>homies had had how manies of red hair and long

0:57:31.880 --> 0:57:34.200
<v Speaker 1>beaches and you know it's nigga's cript gangs. That that

0:57:34.360 --> 0:57:37.120
<v Speaker 1>we're red is like a secondary type thing. When I

0:57:37.200 --> 0:57:39.480
<v Speaker 1>was going niggas wasn't. The older people wasn't feeling it,

0:57:39.920 --> 0:57:42.080
<v Speaker 1>but we was young and we were doing whatever we wanted,

0:57:42.160 --> 0:57:44.120
<v Speaker 1>Like you can't it's long beach, Like everybody's a crip.

0:57:44.240 --> 0:57:46.720
<v Speaker 1>So ain't nobody wearing blue? That's like that's not enough,

0:57:46.800 --> 0:57:50.080
<v Speaker 1>that's not that's not differentiating. And you know what I'm saying, Like,

0:57:50.680 --> 0:57:52.800
<v Speaker 1>so I was kind of past the color thing, like

0:57:53.080 --> 0:57:55.840
<v Speaker 1>that's more of an l a thing because every city

0:57:55.880 --> 0:57:57.640
<v Speaker 1>got its own politics. You know what I'm saying, like

0:57:57.880 --> 0:58:00.240
<v Speaker 1>what happened in La Will, happened in Content and happened

0:58:00.240 --> 0:58:02.320
<v Speaker 1>a Long Beaches all different. What happened in Carson is

0:58:02.400 --> 0:58:05.800
<v Speaker 1>different guarden, and everybody got different politics. So now, um,

0:58:07.120 --> 0:58:09.760
<v Speaker 1>every time I see you with a hat, it's only

0:58:09.840 --> 0:58:15.240
<v Speaker 1>one hat, it's a goddamn yeah all right, and that recently,

0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:17.240
<v Speaker 1>and then I want my two Yankee chains. I got three.

0:58:17.240 --> 0:58:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't find my other one. But um, and when

0:58:21.000 --> 0:58:23.160
<v Speaker 1>I did the research, they said that you're a fan

0:58:23.240 --> 0:58:25.680
<v Speaker 1>of Derek Jeter. Oh yeah, I love baseball, man. You're

0:58:25.680 --> 0:58:29.080
<v Speaker 1>a fan of Yogi Barra and daw With Strawberry. Yeah. Look, man,

0:58:29.080 --> 0:58:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you gotta know what to tell the police when they

0:58:30.520 --> 0:58:34.320
<v Speaker 1>pull your checking out across the police used to access

0:58:34.320 --> 0:58:36.920
<v Speaker 1>the name players on the team. Oh okay, let me

0:58:37.120 --> 0:58:42.600
<v Speaker 1>okay again, this is the East Coast super Green. What

0:58:42.840 --> 0:58:45.000
<v Speaker 1>they say We're talking about this recently on Dream Champs

0:58:45.160 --> 0:58:49.720
<v Speaker 1>about how specifically now is that a gang? I mean

0:58:49.800 --> 0:58:52.000
<v Speaker 1>everybody picked they on it's a gangle hoods that where

0:58:52.040 --> 0:58:54.160
<v Speaker 1>they had right, we already had any black word. I

0:58:54.200 --> 0:58:56.760
<v Speaker 1>had asian zat a family where that had a schoolyard,

0:58:56.800 --> 0:58:59.880
<v Speaker 1>where that had the neighborhoods where they had and the

0:59:00.040 --> 0:59:01.880
<v Speaker 1>fee where that has Sometimes a lot of people were

0:59:01.880 --> 0:59:03.840
<v Speaker 1>it's it ain't it's only so many hats. I think

0:59:03.840 --> 0:59:06.600
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of gotta shear hands. Just depend on the

0:59:06.600 --> 0:59:08.760
<v Speaker 1>neighborhood you win. So so you said you have to

0:59:08.800 --> 0:59:11.000
<v Speaker 1>know what the police to tell you. So the police

0:59:11.040 --> 0:59:12.800
<v Speaker 1>pull you over and they say why you have that

0:59:12.880 --> 0:59:16.160
<v Speaker 1>hat on? And you name somebody from the actually sports team.

0:59:16.440 --> 0:59:18.600
<v Speaker 1>They're leaning in on you. Well, I mean when we

0:59:18.760 --> 0:59:20.960
<v Speaker 1>was kids and we ain't even driving you someday, Oh,

0:59:20.960 --> 0:59:22.760
<v Speaker 1>what's that mean? You know, when you're outside the public,

0:59:22.800 --> 0:59:24.560
<v Speaker 1>when you're a kid the publicly they won't to you,

0:59:24.720 --> 0:59:28.000
<v Speaker 1>but they identified that this hat. You ain't from no

0:59:28.120 --> 0:59:30.840
<v Speaker 1>New York. But the police know everything, right, they be

0:59:30.880 --> 0:59:33.600
<v Speaker 1>telling on themselves all day. It's five snitches that nobody

0:59:33.680 --> 0:59:35.760
<v Speaker 1>know about it all the time. It's five secrets, snitche

0:59:35.800 --> 0:59:38.360
<v Speaker 1>secretary that's telling the police everything that's going on. I

0:59:38.440 --> 0:59:40.280
<v Speaker 1>grew up with my Space. I think it has been

0:59:40.280 --> 0:59:43.720
<v Speaker 1>telling on theirselves. So the police know everything that's going on.

0:59:43.880 --> 0:59:46.640
<v Speaker 1>They're not they're not stupid. Let's go, let's go back

0:59:46.640 --> 0:59:48.760
<v Speaker 1>to the subject. Let me actually want my momy to

0:59:48.760 --> 0:59:51.920
<v Speaker 1>go back to the Yogi Berra and the New York Hat.

0:59:52.320 --> 0:59:56.560
<v Speaker 1>But let me just ask you right now, they say

0:59:56.560 --> 1:00:00.200
<v Speaker 1>they've got poo shasty, right, And they said that, and

1:00:00.280 --> 1:00:02.880
<v Speaker 1>then I'm just being honest. That's want every want to

1:00:02.880 --> 1:00:06.960
<v Speaker 1>be honest. The person that they allegedly said that he

1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:09.640
<v Speaker 1>shot took back his story with canting this story or

1:00:09.680 --> 1:00:13.800
<v Speaker 1>whatever that word is, right, So then they said about

1:00:14.520 --> 1:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>that they linked the money that he actually threw in

1:00:18.560 --> 1:00:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the air. So the money that was found where the

1:00:23.480 --> 1:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>people got shot, there's no way they could do that. Bro,

1:00:26.200 --> 1:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>they can do whatever they want. What I mean is

1:00:27.920 --> 1:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>they're making that ship the funk up because they know

1:00:30.280 --> 1:00:33.360
<v Speaker 1>we are gonna challenge that ship. Like I'm sorry, I'm listening,

1:00:34.320 --> 1:00:36.240
<v Speaker 1>and I don't want to problems with the fat but listen.

1:00:36.800 --> 1:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>One thing I noticed when the Fens came and got

1:00:39.080 --> 1:00:43.160
<v Speaker 1>me for for whatever, they actually didn't know ship. They

1:00:43.200 --> 1:00:45.200
<v Speaker 1>were sitting there and they were they were, they were

1:00:45.280 --> 1:00:47.800
<v Speaker 1>fishing with me, and when I wasn't saying nothing, they

1:00:47.840 --> 1:00:49.439
<v Speaker 1>got me the funk about it and they got someone

1:00:49.520 --> 1:00:51.200
<v Speaker 1>else in there. So what I'm trying to say is

1:00:51.240 --> 1:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>most of the time they don't know ship. But what

1:00:53.520 --> 1:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>it is is they don't present something that seems like

1:00:56.240 --> 1:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>like like, let me just what they're saying is they

1:00:58.640 --> 1:01:02.560
<v Speaker 1>found a dollar. Out of thousand dollars that he threw,

1:01:02.640 --> 1:01:05.360
<v Speaker 1>they found one dollar. No, of course, but when I'm talking,

1:01:05.400 --> 1:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about different because I'm talking about you standing

1:01:08.040 --> 1:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>inside an apartment building that guy graffiti on the wall,

1:01:12.680 --> 1:01:16.480
<v Speaker 1>wearing a specific hat, and we know your Instagram exactly.

1:01:16.640 --> 1:01:19.120
<v Speaker 1>It's that. Now, get what I'm saying. So, so were

1:01:19.120 --> 1:01:21.120
<v Speaker 1>not when I was younger, Like when I was younger,

1:01:21.480 --> 1:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>it was the police kind of knew who was who.

1:01:24.000 --> 1:01:26.080
<v Speaker 1>They knew certain people. So if I know him and

1:01:26.160 --> 1:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I know him, and you with him, now you like him,

1:01:28.200 --> 1:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, So you can kind of

1:01:29.720 --> 1:01:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I was able to wiggle out of certain if they

1:01:31.400 --> 1:01:33.320
<v Speaker 1>that happened. Now it's over. I ain't gonna lie to him,

1:01:33.520 --> 1:01:35.439
<v Speaker 1>but you kind of can wiggle yourself out a certain

1:01:35.520 --> 1:01:37.240
<v Speaker 1>we have gang probably got certain ships like that. Will

1:01:37.280 --> 1:01:39.000
<v Speaker 1>take off your shirt, Let's take picture of your tattoos

1:01:39.040 --> 1:01:40.840
<v Speaker 1>like they were do not to when it was miners.

1:01:41.760 --> 1:01:43.120
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying, like, oh, give me your

1:01:43.160 --> 1:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>hat here, take a picture. And we're about seeing at

1:01:45.240 --> 1:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>the movies that you didn't have Mimi. Oh yeah, I

1:01:49.520 --> 1:01:53.560
<v Speaker 1>have New York. You didn't have this New York naive

1:01:53.600 --> 1:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>and cent man yea yeah in a sentence until the

1:01:59.080 --> 1:02:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Hip Hop Police was game Unit. And that's one thing

1:02:01.840 --> 1:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>that people gotta realize, like, you know, no matter what

1:02:03.560 --> 1:02:05.360
<v Speaker 1>you're doing, I think it's important, Like speaking on the push,

1:02:05.440 --> 1:02:07.560
<v Speaker 1>I think it's important to say with him, a young

1:02:07.640 --> 1:02:09.880
<v Speaker 1>boy and the ship that you're happening, you're gonna understand

1:02:09.960 --> 1:02:11.960
<v Speaker 1>as an artist and you, especially being young, you have

1:02:12.200 --> 1:02:13.760
<v Speaker 1>so much more of your life ahead of you. Even

1:02:13.800 --> 1:02:15.880
<v Speaker 1>if this raps on the last for four years, five years,

1:02:16.320 --> 1:02:19.640
<v Speaker 1>you have, you know, real real possibilities of economic growth

1:02:19.720 --> 1:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>and like stabilization and ship within your community or from

1:02:22.520 --> 1:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>your family. And you gotta be mindful of that because

1:02:25.480 --> 1:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>every single thing that you do, Bro, I gotta rest

1:02:27.880 --> 1:02:31.320
<v Speaker 1>he once and they dude, I was in the car.

1:02:31.440 --> 1:02:33.040
<v Speaker 1>They left me in the car was hot as hell too.

1:02:33.400 --> 1:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>They left me in the car and start playing my

1:02:35.240 --> 1:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>music videos on the cell phone on this ship. But

1:02:37.920 --> 1:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I still acting like that to know if I was

1:02:40.280 --> 1:02:43.200
<v Speaker 1>playing them playing my music videos on ship, blah blah blah.

1:02:43.640 --> 1:02:46.440

1:02:46.480 --> 1:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>said my DNA wasn't assist. They was basically saying I

1:02:48.720 --> 1:02:51.960
<v Speaker 1>wasn't in jail. And the crazy thing about it is

1:02:52.000 --> 1:02:56.320
<v Speaker 1>like with you, they wanted with you at this time

1:02:56.320 --> 1:02:58.080
<v Speaker 1>of year, but it's like and it's like, but I

1:02:58.200 --> 1:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>wasn't big, but it's like I would. I got arrested

1:03:01.080 --> 1:03:04.640
<v Speaker 1>at home, so it was different, but it really made me.

1:03:04.760 --> 1:03:06.960
<v Speaker 1>It sucked me up when I was like, so, you know,

1:03:07.000 --> 1:03:08.440

1:03:16.040 --> 1:03:17.600
<v Speaker 1>use the phone blall black because I still this day,

1:03:18.000 --> 1:03:19.280
<v Speaker 1>at this moment, I mean, I didn't know if they

1:03:19.360 --> 1:03:21.600
<v Speaker 1>knew where I was at, so I'm just calling blah blah.

1:03:22.920 --> 1:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>And then he said, I'll know who you are. We'll

1:03:24.880 --> 1:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>do do up there. I'm like, yeah, I'm supposed to

1:03:26.840 --> 1:03:28.800

1:03:28.800 --> 1:03:29.960
<v Speaker 1>He's a R. So you know, you went in the

1:03:30.000 --> 1:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>back and then they put you on your ship. You go,

1:03:31.680 --> 1:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>you go to the two men's whatever. So you pull

1:03:33.320 --> 1:03:34.440
<v Speaker 1>me back out and said, yeah, you're not in the

1:03:34.480 --> 1:03:36.360
<v Speaker 1>system at all, blah blah blah. And I have the

1:03:36.400 --> 1:03:38.880
<v Speaker 1>festival that weekend, when my first festivals. So I thought

1:03:38.880 --> 1:03:42.360
<v Speaker 1>about it, like, damn, it's not a coincidence that that happened.

1:03:42.400 --> 1:03:44.200
<v Speaker 1>And he asked me who killed these niggas way over

1:03:44.240 --> 1:03:46.320
<v Speaker 1>here in my address along with me I'm doing in

1:03:46.480 --> 1:03:48.200
<v Speaker 1>l A. You know what I'm saying. And then when

1:03:48.200 --> 1:03:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I go to the fucking thing, y'all saying that y'all

1:03:50.040 --> 1:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>don't have my DNA and assistant when you just did

1:03:52.320 --> 1:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>it and I've been built out fucking twenty hours ago

1:03:57.000 --> 1:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know it. After that, I was like,

1:03:58.960 --> 1:04:01.440
<v Speaker 1>you gotta I gotta be more mindful. Like I had

1:04:01.480 --> 1:04:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to judge to the d A, well we can't charge

1:04:04.640 --> 1:04:06.040
<v Speaker 1>him with this and we can't do this, and we

1:04:06.080 --> 1:04:08.200
<v Speaker 1>came down the d A. It's fighting for like little ship,

1:04:08.640 --> 1:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, you gotta understand. I don't know what

1:04:11.000 --> 1:04:12.480
<v Speaker 1>it is, but when you kind of have starting a

1:04:12.520 --> 1:04:16.720
<v Speaker 1>love of success, things is gonna change. Feeling. People are

1:04:16.720 --> 1:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna come for you. So you know, we just gotta

1:04:18.120 --> 1:04:20.160
<v Speaker 1>do a better job at letting everybody know they're important.

1:04:20.200 --> 1:04:22.120
<v Speaker 1>If you know you're important, and you're important your community,

1:04:22.160 --> 1:04:24.840
<v Speaker 1>importing your people, and you can really change everything on

1:04:24.960 --> 1:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>a small level. You know, for you're a rapper and

1:04:27.120 --> 1:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>you get a hundred thousand dollars, then that's not a

1:04:29.520 --> 1:04:31.640
<v Speaker 1>lot based on what rappers say, but that's a lot

1:04:31.720 --> 1:04:33.280
<v Speaker 1>in the real world, and you can change a lot

1:04:33.320 --> 1:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>for your people. So, you know what, you gotta be smarter.

1:04:40.960 --> 1:04:44.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, I came from an era where we was

1:04:45.080 --> 1:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>dick heads, but the record labels really did have our

1:04:47.720 --> 1:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>backs at that time. Like I don't remember a rapper

1:04:50.800 --> 1:04:53.720
<v Speaker 1>ever staying in jail more than five days. Like I

1:04:53.720 --> 1:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>don't give a funk if it was for murder, I

1:04:55.560 --> 1:04:58.160
<v Speaker 1>don't give a funk, Like you know, God bless because

1:04:58.160 --> 1:04:59.480
<v Speaker 1>this is you know, this is this is not bigging

1:04:59.560 --> 1:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>them up, but this is also just pointing out the

1:05:01.880 --> 1:05:03.920
<v Speaker 1>facts you know from you know, our brother right here

1:05:03.960 --> 1:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and looking at DMX, I don't remember DMX. Like when

1:05:07.120 --> 1:05:10.520
<v Speaker 1>when Leo cons and Kevin Lows and Julie Greenwall and

1:05:10.600 --> 1:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Mike Kaiser and all of them were together, they were

1:05:13.240 --> 1:05:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Remember Leo Cols belled me out one time and gave

1:05:15.440 --> 1:05:18.600
<v Speaker 1>me fifteen grand over and I was like, what the funk?

1:05:18.680 --> 1:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Like he was like, here take it, and I was like,

1:05:21.400 --> 1:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I was like why. He was like, I'm talking to

1:05:23.360 --> 1:05:26.680
<v Speaker 1>you for it anyway. I thought he was like the

1:05:26.720 --> 1:05:28.400
<v Speaker 1>bell was dirty grand. It was only fifteen but you

1:05:28.400 --> 1:05:29.520
<v Speaker 1>want me to do you want me to take it back?

1:05:29.560 --> 1:05:31.640
<v Speaker 1>I was like, fifteen grand back, motherfucker. You know what

1:05:31.640 --> 1:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. That's what I'm trying to say. Stay here.

1:05:34.120 --> 1:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>They had a retainer on standby. That's the crazy. This's

1:05:38.520 --> 1:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>is real ship. I'm not making this up, you know

1:05:40.520 --> 1:05:42.840
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. Like they moved on one to bigger

1:05:42.880 --> 1:05:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and better, but they gave you the money. He because

1:05:47.080 --> 1:05:49.400
<v Speaker 1>he it was on your budget, it was on my budget.

1:05:49.840 --> 1:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Puts on but like they had bail like like like

1:05:52.720 --> 1:05:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I know it's that, but but like they would sign

1:05:57.840 --> 1:06:00.720
<v Speaker 1>you and say, Okay, eventually we think he's gonna catch

1:06:00.800 --> 1:06:02.479
<v Speaker 1>a case, so let's put fifty grand to the side

1:06:02.560 --> 1:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>for him. Let's put thirty grand to the side of him.

1:06:05.640 --> 1:06:09.200
<v Speaker 1>DMX had bodied five to the side. Roll like that's serious,

1:06:09.520 --> 1:06:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Like that's serious, and I never yeah, yeah, if you

1:06:16.520 --> 1:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>have four or five fellers, these are still on the street,

1:06:18.480 --> 1:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>Like listen and this this is, this is, this is

1:06:20.720 --> 1:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>not the days of no snitching is going on nothing,

1:06:23.080 --> 1:06:26.880
<v Speaker 1>that's record. Labels had to understanding what the police saying,

1:06:27.160 --> 1:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna pay to get our people out. And when

1:06:31.240 --> 1:06:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I look at because I know Gucci Man, because I

1:06:33.200 --> 1:06:34.840
<v Speaker 1>know Push actually signed the Pucci Man, so I know

1:06:34.880 --> 1:06:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Gucci Man got it. I'm not saying financially, but what

1:06:38.080 --> 1:06:40.400
<v Speaker 1>it is is sometimes you need that complexion for the

1:06:40.480 --> 1:06:44.080
<v Speaker 1>white complexion, for that connection, you understand I'm saying. And

1:06:44.200 --> 1:06:46.520
<v Speaker 1>when we're doing things like that, That's why I was

1:06:46.520 --> 1:06:50.120
<v Speaker 1>always scared, you know, to sign to a murder ink

1:06:50.200 --> 1:06:54.640
<v Speaker 1>or a death row because the face of the company

1:06:54.760 --> 1:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't wasn't accepting in the court and the course

1:07:00.760 --> 1:07:05.360
<v Speaker 1>somebody like like this le All comes, nights coming, take

1:07:05.400 --> 1:07:07.720
<v Speaker 1>going to take Le's money. Man, I mean, it's just

1:07:07.880 --> 1:07:10.640
<v Speaker 1>just one of is not now take Leo out because

1:07:10.880 --> 1:07:12.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what people saying, Oh that's the white guy

1:07:12.840 --> 1:07:15.760
<v Speaker 1>taking le All out, takeing out. Put Kevin Lows in there,

1:07:16.760 --> 1:07:20.720
<v Speaker 1>put uh, put a Kadar, put a Mark Pitts or

1:07:20.760 --> 1:07:22.720
<v Speaker 1>something like that. It would be the same exact thing.

1:07:23.040 --> 1:07:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Show this reputation supersedes him. So they'll go with the

1:07:25.960 --> 1:07:28.320
<v Speaker 1>lesser even or lesser powers. But what I'm trying to

1:07:28.360 --> 1:07:30.720
<v Speaker 1>say is regulabels back then, like when I'm looking at

1:07:30.720 --> 1:07:33.520
<v Speaker 1>you said the NBA Young boy, Um, that's another right

1:07:33.520 --> 1:07:36.240
<v Speaker 1>now the case right now I think even um, I'll

1:07:36.320 --> 1:07:38.680
<v Speaker 1>keep hearing about little dirt name keep popping up. And

1:07:38.800 --> 1:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying is I'm not I'm not glorifying this.

1:07:42.040 --> 1:07:46.000
<v Speaker 1>But back then these cases will disappear. But were also

1:07:46.040 --> 1:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I think I think I think what you're saying is

1:07:47.840 --> 1:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>and we didn't have Instagram, Yeah, But also what you're

1:07:49.720 --> 1:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>saying is that the the labels is more aware of

1:07:53.280 --> 1:07:55.200
<v Speaker 1>who these artists was. And I think a lot of

1:07:55.240 --> 1:07:57.000
<v Speaker 1>that come to sell forward because at the point of time,

1:07:57.000 --> 1:07:58.680
<v Speaker 1>like I was saying that the labels and they might

1:07:58.760 --> 1:08:00.040
<v Speaker 1>we don't know what's going on with him because the

1:08:00.040 --> 1:08:02.080
<v Speaker 1>world has changed so much. They might be struggling a

1:08:02.160 --> 1:08:03.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of these dudes, like you just think we need

1:08:03.760 --> 1:08:05.680
<v Speaker 1>self awareness, like what they need artists, like they need

1:08:05.680 --> 1:08:07.440
<v Speaker 1>to know how important it is. Bro, I going to

1:08:07.480 --> 1:08:09.760
<v Speaker 1>my neighborhood, brought swear to God. You hear it a

1:08:09.880 --> 1:08:12.640
<v Speaker 1>hunted NBA Young Boys songs back to back and then

1:08:12.680 --> 1:08:14.560
<v Speaker 1>you hear a hunted Little Dirt songs back to back.

1:08:14.800 --> 1:08:16.439
<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean, like like these people is

1:08:16.520 --> 1:08:19.360
<v Speaker 1>real significant, important people in our culture. You know, everybody

1:08:19.439 --> 1:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>had their struggles, but also listen to these songs. Listened

1:08:21.960 --> 1:08:24.360
<v Speaker 1>where these people come from. We can't expect everybody to

1:08:24.439 --> 1:08:26.200
<v Speaker 1>be ready to fly straight right away, you know what

1:08:26.280 --> 1:08:29.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. So no real talk, no real patient. Another perspective,

1:08:29.439 --> 1:08:30.880
<v Speaker 1>and you might have to look at it. Maybe it's

1:08:30.880 --> 1:08:33.000
<v Speaker 1>not that they had your back. Is that the investment

1:08:33.120 --> 1:08:35.920
<v Speaker 1>was so important for them. We have bigger budgets they

1:08:35.960 --> 1:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>need to because it was worth a lot of money

1:08:38.000 --> 1:08:39.519
<v Speaker 1>for them. Yeah, we have bigger but there's not so

1:08:39.640 --> 1:08:46.880
<v Speaker 1>much buster arrested, you arrested, the bail money? Yeah yeah, Listen,

1:08:47.000 --> 1:08:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna say it's a better times. Don't want

1:08:48.800 --> 1:08:50.599
<v Speaker 1>to be the old dude, you know, back in the days,

1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:52.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know, when the dimeback was a dime.

1:08:52.640 --> 1:08:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be that guy. But what I'm

1:08:54.280 --> 1:08:57.680
<v Speaker 1>trying to tell you is, you know what I'm saying,

1:08:57.680 --> 1:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>but I'm trying to tell you is I've got a

1:09:00.320 --> 1:09:03.920
<v Speaker 1>lot better back then. Because although they although they might

1:09:04.000 --> 1:09:05.720
<v Speaker 1>have not gave a ship about us, just as they

1:09:05.800 --> 1:09:09.400
<v Speaker 1>don't give a about us. Now, at least they they pretended,

1:09:09.920 --> 1:09:11.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to say for intended. At least it

1:09:11.760 --> 1:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>felt like that, you know what I'm saying, Like we

1:09:14.160 --> 1:09:17.200
<v Speaker 1>would go to certain CEO's houses and things like that.

1:09:17.360 --> 1:09:19.880
<v Speaker 1>It's and it's not to like, you know, praise it.

1:09:19.920 --> 1:09:21.639
<v Speaker 1>But you know, for a kid coming from the ghetto,

1:09:21.840 --> 1:09:23.880
<v Speaker 1>you move out of the ghetto, you go, you go

1:09:24.040 --> 1:09:26.640
<v Speaker 1>get your version of what you think is wealth. And

1:09:26.760 --> 1:09:30.639
<v Speaker 1>then and then this regulabel comes and say, hey, listen,

1:09:30.880 --> 1:09:32.800
<v Speaker 1>let me show you what I think as well. You

1:09:32.840 --> 1:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. And for some people it's motivations,

1:09:35.800 --> 1:09:37.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, like I don't look at you know, I

1:09:37.960 --> 1:09:41.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you guys see, but jay Z just

1:09:42.120 --> 1:09:46.800
<v Speaker 1>uh went to this Hampton party, rights all white Hampton party.

1:09:47.000 --> 1:09:49.200
<v Speaker 1>And if you look at this, jay Z is showing

1:09:49.280 --> 1:09:52.720
<v Speaker 1>his watching every one of the pictures. I don't care

1:09:52.800 --> 1:09:55.479
<v Speaker 1>what pos it is. He like you look at the

1:09:55.520 --> 1:09:59.400
<v Speaker 1>pictures with FaceTime. He's not digging up his loves like this.

1:09:59.600 --> 1:10:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Y'all see that three million out of me. So what

1:10:01.840 --> 1:10:04.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, you don't never grow out of, you know,

1:10:05.000 --> 1:10:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the holy ship. You don't the man has everything, the

1:10:07.960 --> 1:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>most beautiful his wife in the world, and he went

1:10:09.960 --> 1:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>to the happens and who the star wasn't happen It's

1:10:12.880 --> 1:10:15.040
<v Speaker 1>three million dollar watch. You know what I'm saying, Look

1:10:15.040 --> 1:10:18.360
<v Speaker 1>at go Google to see Google right now, I don't

1:10:18.400 --> 1:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>eve you were catching from You're catching from either angle.

1:10:22.280 --> 1:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about. He was like this, he's gonna see that,

1:10:25.560 --> 1:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>and you gonna see that ship. And it's like he

1:10:27.400 --> 1:10:30.080
<v Speaker 1>got everything in the world. But we don't grow, we

1:10:30.160 --> 1:10:33.040
<v Speaker 1>don't get out of certain things, and we're still these people.

1:10:33.400 --> 1:10:35.600
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I don't know I got there, but

1:10:35.800 --> 1:10:37.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's it's it's it's it's a it's a

1:10:37.720 --> 1:10:39.840
<v Speaker 1>it's an ill situation. Now when you go to Google

1:10:39.920 --> 1:10:42.720
<v Speaker 1>it and go look at it, you're gonna see. So

1:10:42.800 --> 1:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why I got there what we were

1:10:44.080 --> 1:10:47.080
<v Speaker 1>talking about. But but back to your original point, it's

1:10:47.080 --> 1:10:49.320
<v Speaker 1>not that I don't know you even drunk. It's not

1:10:49.400 --> 1:10:51.400
<v Speaker 1>the prevalent. But but I kind of know what you

1:10:51.439 --> 1:10:53.679
<v Speaker 1>mean because when I was doing Street Team Ship Mark Echo,

1:10:53.960 --> 1:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>he was working in the Echo account. I got locked up.

1:10:55.920 --> 1:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>He came and got he flew us out to the

1:10:57.800 --> 1:10:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Jersey where I was like we had a meeting with him,

1:11:00.040 --> 1:11:02.120
<v Speaker 1>which we was never having meetings with the CEO of

1:11:02.160 --> 1:11:04.040
<v Speaker 1>any company we worked with. And then he brought in

1:11:04.080 --> 1:11:06.479
<v Speaker 1>the lawyer afterwards because it makes you sign a release

1:11:06.479 --> 1:11:08.960
<v Speaker 1>saying that if you get caught doing promo ship you

1:11:09.000 --> 1:11:11.760
<v Speaker 1>don't work for the company. Then we signed it. Then

1:11:11.760 --> 1:11:13.439
<v Speaker 1>the lawyer comes in and he goes, it's the lawyer.

1:11:13.439 --> 1:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna talk to you guys. If any of your

1:11:16.680 --> 1:11:19.040
<v Speaker 1>gets caught, it's on us. We're gonna get you out.

1:11:19.240 --> 1:11:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Here's the lawyer's card. But when I was like, man,

1:11:21.280 --> 1:11:23.880
<v Speaker 1>this is different, and so I kind of get with you.

1:11:24.080 --> 1:11:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you that we're a little bit more mafia

1:11:26.000 --> 1:11:29.160
<v Speaker 1>structured back then. Right now we're I mean, I get

1:11:29.200 --> 1:11:30.760
<v Speaker 1>what you're saying, because at that point in time, I

1:11:30.840 --> 1:11:33.559
<v Speaker 1>guess hip hop wasn't necessarily commercial stranstration. You know, it's

1:11:33.560 --> 1:11:35.760
<v Speaker 1>getting commercial, So it was kind of operated in the

1:11:35.840 --> 1:11:38.559
<v Speaker 1>world that like he was the first real commercial guy

1:11:38.720 --> 1:11:42.160
<v Speaker 1>like that wasn't trying to be commercial, like he That

1:11:42.320 --> 1:11:45.240
<v Speaker 1>dude never changed, like that dude was as pure as

1:11:45.360 --> 1:11:48.240
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, would you call it commercial? Ain't ship commercial?

1:11:48.520 --> 1:11:54.439
<v Speaker 1>D MG? Ex fact that it went commercial, what's it's

1:11:54.520 --> 1:11:58.599
<v Speaker 1>the thing, this thing that that's not that's not commercial.

1:11:58.720 --> 1:12:01.120
<v Speaker 1>That's just success a lot a lot of the times.

1:12:01.360 --> 1:12:03.280
<v Speaker 1>So you know, and whenever mother get success, you get

1:12:03.320 --> 1:12:05.719
<v Speaker 1>a love of success. You can't. You gotta switch your roles.

1:12:05.960 --> 1:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>It's not all I'm a running against some money. It's like,

1:12:08.360 --> 1:12:12.240
<v Speaker 1>now you commercial because of the hyde, but records will

1:12:12.439 --> 1:12:16.280
<v Speaker 1>make you commercial. Like Uma was bigger than me my

1:12:16.360 --> 1:12:18.519
<v Speaker 1>Spanish record, But who do you go up it but that?

1:12:18.640 --> 1:12:23.639
<v Speaker 1>But that's still not commercial? Commercial? How some ship commercial

1:12:23.760 --> 1:12:28.719
<v Speaker 1>and it's not in English and you clear out the world.

1:12:28.760 --> 1:12:32.680
<v Speaker 1>It was like commercial but coal It's just how do

1:12:32.720 --> 1:12:36.760
<v Speaker 1>you fund commercial? Argument? I'm not another debating him, but

1:12:36.840 --> 1:12:41.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying is like like like to me, little Kim

1:12:41.800 --> 1:12:45.120
<v Speaker 1>records superseded? Kind of who little a little Kim? Excuse

1:12:45.160 --> 1:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>me say that. It's the opposite way. People more less

1:12:48.880 --> 1:12:52.519
<v Speaker 1>know who Lulu Kim is. This they know hard records,

1:12:52.600 --> 1:12:54.920
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, because they're identified with her,

1:12:55.080 --> 1:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>her image. It's so big that I think she supersedes

1:13:01.080 --> 1:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>her records. That's brand though. That's when you become a brand. Okay,

1:13:05.840 --> 1:13:08.800
<v Speaker 1>your records, that's just you as a brand. I mean

1:13:08.840 --> 1:13:10.760
<v Speaker 1>everybody gets to the point of where they where they

1:13:10.840 --> 1:13:14.680
<v Speaker 1>bigger than their records. If you get to that certain height,

1:13:14.720 --> 1:13:16.400
<v Speaker 1>you gotta be bigger than you know. I'm not. I've

1:13:16.439 --> 1:13:19.680
<v Speaker 1>never got to bigger than black pit Bull. Pit Bull

1:13:19.760 --> 1:13:21.879
<v Speaker 1>is a good guy who I see served a balance

1:13:22.040 --> 1:13:24.240
<v Speaker 1>and I see you got a love for people. Watch

1:13:24.640 --> 1:13:26.880

1:13:26.960 --> 1:13:34.679

1:13:45.160 --> 1:13:49.400
<v Speaker 1>well he swept before, not at all, don't. I don't

1:13:49.400 --> 1:13:53.800

1:13:57.680 --> 1:14:03.640
<v Speaker 1>nigger him, and I was at the fight. It was

1:14:03.680 --> 1:14:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the most I was calling some Cuban Miami ship. I

1:14:09.200 --> 1:14:10.519

<v Speaker 1>yeah go, holy morning, I got I got more. Okay.

1:24:57.160 --> 1:25:01.439
<v Speaker 1>So you said that black people most of the time

1:25:01.560 --> 1:25:04.240
<v Speaker 1>takes z X and lean because they hear it in

1:25:04.280 --> 1:25:08.679
<v Speaker 1>the rap song the young Niggers. For sure, I agree

1:25:08.720 --> 1:25:10.519
<v Speaker 1>with you. Yeah, yeah, I feel like it's not even

1:25:10.560 --> 1:25:12.800
<v Speaker 1>just it's not even that it's just music in general.

1:25:12.960 --> 1:25:14.519
<v Speaker 1>When I was younger, and I didn't know what lean

1:25:14.720 --> 1:25:22.040
<v Speaker 1>was until until until uh st three I didn't know

1:25:22.080 --> 1:25:24.599
<v Speaker 1>what lean was too. I went on tour with April

1:25:24.800 --> 1:25:26.559
<v Speaker 1>m j G. And then like you think about still

1:25:26.600 --> 1:25:28.240
<v Speaker 1>tipping and get throw like that. I don't know, we

1:25:28.280 --> 1:25:31.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't really it gets California. It's different, it's different cultures

1:25:31.200 --> 1:25:33.080
<v Speaker 1>every But that's all I'm saying. Music is an introductory

1:25:33.120 --> 1:25:34.960
<v Speaker 1>point because it's the same thing with all these people

1:25:34.960 --> 1:25:37.040
<v Speaker 1>are these other stage taking loud they want They didn't

1:25:37.040 --> 1:25:39.360
<v Speaker 1>know what chrystial blood was only until they got really

1:25:39.400 --> 1:25:40.960
<v Speaker 1>big in the music, of course, and they're gonna go

1:25:40.960 --> 1:25:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to your city and set up. But that's not gonna

1:25:43.040 --> 1:25:45.360
<v Speaker 1>have it be to where it is now. The music

1:25:45.520 --> 1:25:47.799
<v Speaker 1>is the biggest you know thing that it changes everything

1:25:47.920 --> 1:25:51.640
<v Speaker 1>bro changed every end Internet. But so why do you

1:25:51.680 --> 1:25:54.519
<v Speaker 1>why do you think that all our folks is like that?

1:25:54.720 --> 1:25:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Like because why do you think that's so easily everybody

1:25:58.280 --> 1:26:01.200
<v Speaker 1>like that? Everything like that? I think think about thinking

1:26:01.200 --> 1:26:02.880
<v Speaker 1>about the spread of racism in places that don't have

1:26:02.920 --> 1:26:04.600
<v Speaker 1>no black people, you know what I mean? That was

1:26:04.680 --> 1:26:06.519
<v Speaker 1>told that. I mean when you look at it's just

1:26:06.600 --> 1:26:09.080
<v Speaker 1>a medium and mass conception, a certain ship. What you

1:26:09.160 --> 1:26:10.800
<v Speaker 1>consume is who you are, you know what I mean?

1:26:10.800 --> 1:26:12.080
<v Speaker 1>If you think about what you eat and you know

1:26:12.200 --> 1:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>what you drinking things that you are so so essentially

1:26:15.360 --> 1:26:17.840
<v Speaker 1>that's everybody. It's not just black people. You see um

1:26:18.000 --> 1:26:20.880
<v Speaker 1>Dick Gregory documentary. I ain't seen it. I ain't seen it.

1:26:21.560 --> 1:26:27.920
<v Speaker 1>You've seen it, but everyone is aware of Dick Um. Well,

1:26:27.960 --> 1:26:30.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know. It's all I knew was he was.

1:26:30.360 --> 1:26:31.960
<v Speaker 1>He's a funny guy. I did not know he went

1:26:32.040 --> 1:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>on a fast for two years. I did not he

1:26:35.400 --> 1:26:40.400
<v Speaker 1>ran across country, like you know what was he fasted

1:26:40.479 --> 1:26:44.599
<v Speaker 1>for two years? Just water? Uh, let's juicing. He was juicing,

1:26:45.040 --> 1:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>he um. And then he ran from like New York

1:26:48.840 --> 1:26:53.720
<v Speaker 1>to bottom all and then he did like yeah in

1:26:53.840 --> 1:26:55.920
<v Speaker 1>real life, like this is not far as gone. And

1:26:56.040 --> 1:27:01.120
<v Speaker 1>then he found out a white dude who who had

1:27:01.720 --> 1:27:05.720
<v Speaker 1>orchestrated a run from New York to California. So he

1:27:05.880 --> 1:27:08.680
<v Speaker 1>asked the dud and he did it. So he ran

1:27:09.479 --> 1:27:14.320
<v Speaker 1>fifty it's two marathons, six US twenty so he did

1:27:14.360 --> 1:27:19.599
<v Speaker 1>about fifty eight miles a day. Yeah, it was crazy.

1:27:19.640 --> 1:27:21.519
<v Speaker 1>I watched the documentary last night. I didn't know why,

1:27:21.600 --> 1:27:24.120
<v Speaker 1>but I was like, yo, this is some different ship.

1:27:24.240 --> 1:27:28.679
<v Speaker 1>And what I'm trying to tell you is me being

1:27:28.760 --> 1:27:32.200
<v Speaker 1>OPT four this year. I knew none of that. Like

1:27:32.320 --> 1:27:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I knew he was, you know, for us blacks, I

1:27:35.120 --> 1:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't know how much he was for and he was

1:27:37.040 --> 1:27:40.560
<v Speaker 1>fighting world hunger. So he said he didn't eat. So

1:27:40.640 --> 1:27:42.519
<v Speaker 1>when people asked him why you didn't eat, he said,

1:27:42.520 --> 1:27:44.600
<v Speaker 1>because there's people in this world that's starving, And he

1:27:44.640 --> 1:27:46.719
<v Speaker 1>said that's how. He didn't have a Twitter, he didn't

1:27:46.720 --> 1:27:48.679
<v Speaker 1>have an Instagram, so that's how he was spreading the world.

1:27:49.160 --> 1:27:51.479
<v Speaker 1>So that ship fucked me up to a certain extent.

1:27:51.640 --> 1:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>So I was wondering like, like, did you did you

1:27:54.479 --> 1:27:57.160
<v Speaker 1>get the hell uh Dick Gregories plots and things like that,

1:27:57.360 --> 1:28:00.000
<v Speaker 1>or I'm not but I did not see that document

1:28:00.000 --> 1:28:01.840
<v Speaker 1>in act about some of the stuff you just said.

1:28:01.960 --> 1:28:04.160
<v Speaker 1>But I think, you know, I'm I think that that's

1:28:04.200 --> 1:28:06.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's how I'm going to sense. You gotta

1:28:06.560 --> 1:28:08.280
<v Speaker 1>you gotta be about the ships you say, you know,

1:28:08.560 --> 1:28:11.280
<v Speaker 1>you gotta kind of live with your actions, and we

1:28:11.760 --> 1:28:13.400
<v Speaker 1>should get to a place where that worst. You know,

1:28:13.560 --> 1:28:15.920
<v Speaker 1>usually it's like we care when they live what they're saying.

1:28:15.960 --> 1:28:18.400
<v Speaker 1>If it's some negative stuff, we gotta care about it

1:28:18.479 --> 1:28:20.080
<v Speaker 1>on a positive end. So and just make sure that

1:28:20.160 --> 1:28:23.280
<v Speaker 1>everybody is you know, you gotta try to help. You know,

1:28:23.400 --> 1:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>you can't. You can't. You can't put so much, you know,

1:28:25.160 --> 1:28:26.640
<v Speaker 1>bad in your life. You know, I'm not trying to

1:28:26.680 --> 1:28:29.559
<v Speaker 1>do some good ship, right, So when we were when

1:28:29.600 --> 1:28:31.719
<v Speaker 1>are we seeing you on a big screen? What what's

1:28:31.800 --> 1:28:34.280
<v Speaker 1>happening when ship? Man, I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying

1:28:34.280 --> 1:28:36.800
<v Speaker 1>to excuse me. I'm trying to write these shows out.

1:28:38.280 --> 1:28:40.080
<v Speaker 1>I got to show your own show. Yeah, I gotta

1:28:40.080 --> 1:28:43.160
<v Speaker 1>ask show ship coming through Netflix hopefully, well if we

1:28:43.200 --> 1:28:45.479
<v Speaker 1>can pack it out and h yeah, I got this

1:28:45.560 --> 1:28:47.920
<v Speaker 1>movie called dead Ass that we're trying to get picked up.

1:28:48.240 --> 1:28:49.880
<v Speaker 1>We're kind of the stuff. I do all this and

1:28:49.960 --> 1:28:51.880
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that, but I try to make some New

1:28:51.960 --> 1:28:55.000
<v Speaker 1>York ship. You know that's our slang dead ass that

1:28:55.200 --> 1:28:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm so happy you're saying that. Look I want to change.

1:29:01.720 --> 1:29:03.439
<v Speaker 1>Did I just help him? I just helped his case.

1:29:04.600 --> 1:29:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I need that separate. But what I'm saying, what I'm saying,

1:29:10.080 --> 1:29:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I was like, you can't name a

1:29:11.360 --> 1:29:14.519
<v Speaker 1>movie this if it ain't gonna be out there, But yeah,

1:29:14.800 --> 1:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you know I can about what is the movie about? That? Now? Yeah,

1:29:24.040 --> 1:29:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I just tell yourselfing you your personality is one of

1:29:26.840 --> 1:29:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the most phenomenal personalities I've ever seen. Like you know,

1:29:30.680 --> 1:29:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to study you, and not only that, you're

1:29:33.680 --> 1:29:37.759
<v Speaker 1>a very very smart individual. I don't think there's anybody

1:29:37.760 --> 1:29:40.040
<v Speaker 1>that we can compare you too that came before you,

1:29:41.080 --> 1:29:42.640
<v Speaker 1>and I don't think there's anybody that we're gonna be

1:29:42.680 --> 1:29:47.080
<v Speaker 1>able to compare to you after. You're a very different individual.

1:29:47.280 --> 1:29:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Like I love the way you thought. You see how

1:29:49.560 --> 1:29:53.800
<v Speaker 1>he's breaking it down. It brings you to a question,

1:29:54.320 --> 1:29:56.720
<v Speaker 1>did you ever have artists development or this is something

1:29:56.760 --> 1:29:59.160
<v Speaker 1>that you develop on your own. I don't have nothing. Wow.

1:29:59.240 --> 1:30:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I never never had. I ain't never been putting up

1:30:02.040 --> 1:30:05.320
<v Speaker 1>producer sessions. Wow, I never been putting on riding camps.

1:30:05.800 --> 1:30:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I never have no real A and R work on

1:30:08.400 --> 1:30:10.000
<v Speaker 1>my child as that could at the point of time.

1:30:10.040 --> 1:30:12.519
<v Speaker 1>It's all about access. You know, of course everybody cares,

1:30:12.520 --> 1:30:15.960
<v Speaker 1>but I never had people all Twitter blah blah, and

1:30:16.040 --> 1:30:18.040
<v Speaker 1>it's not like the social media stuff. This ain't nothing

1:30:18.120 --> 1:30:20.160
<v Speaker 1>that was. That's just I just had to I had

1:30:20.200 --> 1:30:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to figure something out because we ain't had the biggest budgets,

1:30:23.040 --> 1:30:24.760
<v Speaker 1>and we had we ain't had certain torrent thing, if

1:30:24.760 --> 1:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, just trying to find cool ways and promote ship.

1:30:27.120 --> 1:30:28.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, just I'm regular niggers, so I ain't never

1:30:28.880 --> 1:30:31.479
<v Speaker 1>trying to be, you know, a superstar and all you

1:30:31.520 --> 1:30:32.760
<v Speaker 1>should do did you do? Do you shoot that? I

1:30:32.760 --> 1:30:34.840
<v Speaker 1>ain't never. It just happened for me, and that's why

1:30:34.840 --> 1:30:37.120
<v Speaker 1>it's funny. Sharle Mayne. I heard CHARLETTA. Mayne saying once

1:30:37.120 --> 1:30:39.479
<v Speaker 1>to an e Broils saying once Sto'm paraphrasing, but one

1:30:39.479 --> 1:30:41.840
<v Speaker 1>of them is like, oh, you know, with Vince. I

1:30:41.920 --> 1:30:44.040
<v Speaker 1>think I think Charlotte Mayne was one of said Vincus

1:30:44.080 --> 1:30:46.519
<v Speaker 1>personality is bigger than music. I think even somebody else

1:30:46.560 --> 1:30:47.840
<v Speaker 1>it was one of them. Other to do said one

1:30:47.880 --> 1:30:50.360
<v Speaker 1>of them too specifically, I said, yeah, once Vince stops,

1:30:50.680 --> 1:30:52.960
<v Speaker 1>change switches from music and does something else, saying he's

1:30:52.960 --> 1:30:54.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna do really, really good. And I didn't understand why

1:30:54.920 --> 1:30:56.840
<v Speaker 1>they said it till I got older, because I don't

1:30:56.880 --> 1:30:58.880
<v Speaker 1>have a correct view of the world. You're almost thinking,

1:30:58.920 --> 1:31:00.599
<v Speaker 1>like to trying to this your music. No, not even

1:31:00.680 --> 1:31:02.479
<v Speaker 1>that I thought of it like this, Like you know,

1:31:02.760 --> 1:31:04.400
<v Speaker 1>when you come from it, when you come from the ship,

1:31:04.520 --> 1:31:07.439
<v Speaker 1>it's like it's an opportunity and you feel like you

1:31:07.479 --> 1:31:09.040
<v Speaker 1>don't want to you know if this, if if this

1:31:09.120 --> 1:31:10.600
<v Speaker 1>the hand that's pulling you up, you don't want to

1:31:10.640 --> 1:31:12.200
<v Speaker 1>let it go. You feel you don't want to even

1:31:12.240 --> 1:31:14.400
<v Speaker 1>try to look a right. You're really seeing past it exactly.

1:31:14.439 --> 1:31:15.560
<v Speaker 1>You just want to hold on, say that hand and

1:31:15.640 --> 1:31:17.120
<v Speaker 1>how to get up out the mud basically, And I

1:31:17.240 --> 1:31:19.160
<v Speaker 1>think I was like that for a long time ago.

1:31:19.240 --> 1:31:20.600
<v Speaker 1>I can't do this because that's gonna sun with this,

1:31:21.040 --> 1:31:23.000
<v Speaker 1>because that's good, funk with that when the reality all

1:31:23.040 --> 1:31:25.320
<v Speaker 1>these other things was propelling it. So, you know, just

1:31:25.360 --> 1:31:27.320
<v Speaker 1>trying to make sure I can kind of diversify ship

1:31:27.400 --> 1:31:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the most I can and just don't do the ship.

1:31:29.160 --> 1:31:31.000
<v Speaker 1>People don't get these opportunities. I ain't never done nothing

1:31:31.040 --> 1:31:32.800
<v Speaker 1>on TV ever. I knew the shows, no, none of that,

1:31:33.120 --> 1:31:34.800
<v Speaker 1>and I got Gotta I Gotta shell picked up from

1:31:34.800 --> 1:31:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Netflix that me and the Honey made up. But we

1:31:36.280 --> 1:31:38.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't write nothing. We just went and filmed it. You

1:31:38.280 --> 1:31:40.560
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? What's it? What's it called a

1:31:40.600 --> 1:31:42.880
<v Speaker 1>Little Dickie? I ain't seen it yet, but the hommy

1:31:42.960 --> 1:31:45.479
<v Speaker 1>right on that song shout, I dropped that show, my hommy, Travis.

1:31:45.800 --> 1:31:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I see um season one. I haven't got a chance

1:31:48.960 --> 1:31:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to see season two, but I would say that to say,

1:31:52.600 --> 1:31:55.240
<v Speaker 1>I see you doing something similar like you being you. Yeah,

1:31:55.280 --> 1:31:57.400
<v Speaker 1>it's possible like that. That's that's what we're working on.

1:31:57.439 --> 1:31:59.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna station ship, but that's that's what you're working on.

1:31:59.439 --> 1:32:01.559
<v Speaker 1>Is hopefully a panel. I'm good. I think it's gonna

1:32:01.560 --> 1:32:03.200
<v Speaker 1>be straight. Like put it like this. When I watched

1:32:03.240 --> 1:32:05.800
<v Speaker 1>The Little Thing, I didn't know who's the homies real name?

1:32:06.640 --> 1:32:12.760
<v Speaker 1>What's uh? What's the artist that's like, I'm like, I'm

1:32:12.800 --> 1:32:16.120
<v Speaker 1>thinking of my drug now let you go, let you know.

1:32:16.680 --> 1:32:19.120
<v Speaker 1>So I went in with the attentions like why would

1:32:19.120 --> 1:32:22.280
<v Speaker 1>they give a new artist, you know, this platform, Like

1:32:22.400 --> 1:32:25.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm going in hating like to a certain extent, like

1:32:25.760 --> 1:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>to a certain extent like yo, like let me tell,

1:32:27.920 --> 1:32:30.439
<v Speaker 1>and I went I came out loving it like we're

1:32:30.520 --> 1:32:34.439
<v Speaker 1>season two, like you know what I mean, because again

1:32:35.680 --> 1:32:37.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know this man struggle. I don't know who

1:32:37.640 --> 1:32:40.080
<v Speaker 1>he is. So I didn't know that, you know, they

1:32:40.120 --> 1:32:42.439
<v Speaker 1>had the same type of struggles just because they might

1:32:42.479 --> 1:32:44.840
<v Speaker 1>not be as poor as us, but their family is

1:32:44.880 --> 1:32:48.599
<v Speaker 1>not supporting them. Yeah. Yeah, like you said, emotional ship

1:32:48.680 --> 1:32:50.880
<v Speaker 1>and all this crazy like you know, being an artist,

1:32:51.600 --> 1:32:54.760
<v Speaker 1>that's why that's why I love DMX statement when he said, yo,

1:32:54.800 --> 1:32:57.760
<v Speaker 1>he stopped calling an artists whack. And I asked him,

1:32:57.760 --> 1:32:59.639
<v Speaker 1>I said, well, why would you stop calling artists whack?

1:32:59.720 --> 1:33:04.200
<v Speaker 1>He said, because one artist for sixteen different families. And

1:33:04.320 --> 1:33:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I was just like wow, Like, regardless of let's think

1:33:06.760 --> 1:33:10.280
<v Speaker 1>about it, for artists works at bare minimum, he's speeding

1:33:10.320 --> 1:33:12.559
<v Speaker 1>at least eight to ten on his own team. Then

1:33:12.600 --> 1:33:15.880
<v Speaker 1>he's helping out six to seven to maybe even the

1:33:15.960 --> 1:33:19.639
<v Speaker 1>whole record label. He like saved the whole record label,

1:33:19.680 --> 1:33:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. So um, But getting back

1:33:22.439 --> 1:33:26.479
<v Speaker 1>to that, when I see the show, I was, you know,

1:33:26.560 --> 1:33:30.360
<v Speaker 1>I was actually impressed, but I was more impressed that

1:33:30.479 --> 1:33:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Obviously I don't know this guy. I've never met him before,

1:33:33.280 --> 1:33:35.600
<v Speaker 1>but he was portraying a life that I think that

1:33:35.720 --> 1:33:38.639
<v Speaker 1>he lived. Yeah, it's important, like like but like you said,

1:33:38.720 --> 1:33:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you never know somebody entry points. So him doing that

1:33:41.160 --> 1:33:44.160
<v Speaker 1>show my guardens. Even like when Atlanta with Donald Gloving.

1:33:44.240 --> 1:33:47.759
<v Speaker 1>Like Atlanta, of course, Donald was already successful, but Atlanta

1:33:47.840 --> 1:33:49.840
<v Speaker 1>opened him up to so many more people that probably

1:33:49.840 --> 1:33:51.920
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have been paying attention. So you gotta be willing

1:33:51.960 --> 1:33:54.320
<v Speaker 1>to take the risk, and like even even ship, like

1:33:54.360 --> 1:33:56.600
<v Speaker 1>when you think about Aaron, What y'all girl, Which is

1:33:56.640 --> 1:33:58.800
<v Speaker 1>when y'all was all making music, y'all was taking risks.

1:33:58.880 --> 1:34:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Y'all wasn't doing the same thing over and over and

1:34:00.880 --> 1:34:03.040
<v Speaker 1>over and over and over again. And it's important to

1:34:03.080 --> 1:34:04.760
<v Speaker 1>be creative in that light and just you know, trying

1:34:04.760 --> 1:34:07.679
<v Speaker 1>to do different ships, y'all paying out. You also said

1:34:07.720 --> 1:34:11.160
<v Speaker 1>one thing, I'm sorry you're bounsing around. You said you

1:34:11.280 --> 1:34:14.559
<v Speaker 1>can't be a thug in broke. Even George Washington living

1:34:14.760 --> 1:34:18.679
<v Speaker 1>Compton once. Now this nigga, not George Bush. George Bush

1:34:18.760 --> 1:34:25.559
<v Speaker 1>lived in Compton, and Kevin Cosner from Compton, Board from

1:34:25.600 --> 1:34:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Compton the Bodyguard when he was in Bodyguard Compton? Is

1:34:30.200 --> 1:34:34.519
<v Speaker 1>he from He from Compton? Compton? Yea? And they got farm.

1:34:35.080 --> 1:34:39.120
<v Speaker 1>He lived in the mobs over there off like Closter

1:34:39.160 --> 1:34:41.679
<v Speaker 1>Bullets and who else? He said, George Bush and George

1:34:41.720 --> 1:34:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Buston lived in County. I got that from him from

1:34:45.320 --> 1:34:49.720
<v Speaker 1>my mama Google it. Compthing was nice, that's where he

1:34:49.840 --> 1:34:51.560
<v Speaker 1>was at. It was Compton was like pals brain. So

1:34:51.640 --> 1:34:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the niggas went over there with him. Guys changed it all.

1:34:55.040 --> 1:34:56.439
<v Speaker 1>They had to get up out of there. Really, know

1:34:56.520 --> 1:34:58.120
<v Speaker 1>what's you know what's crazy about you, and I know

1:34:58.200 --> 1:34:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you like you know your history. You know, it's crazy

1:35:00.400 --> 1:35:02.120
<v Speaker 1>about the West Coast. When the West Coast, when you

1:35:02.160 --> 1:35:04.080
<v Speaker 1>ever you say something's funked up about the West Coast,

1:35:04.120 --> 1:35:06.720
<v Speaker 1>you always have to blame the South. You know why?

1:35:07.800 --> 1:35:12.479
<v Speaker 1>Sorry South people, Sorry, y'all went west thinking there was

1:35:12.560 --> 1:35:15.880
<v Speaker 1>no racism. I was thinking because it was the South

1:35:16.040 --> 1:35:18.680
<v Speaker 1>was really really racist. And in order to go to

1:35:18.840 --> 1:35:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the right to up north, you got to have a

1:35:20.880 --> 1:35:23.160
<v Speaker 1>little bit of money or have some family. So those

1:35:23.240 --> 1:35:25.080
<v Speaker 1>that was from the South that didn't have a little

1:35:25.080 --> 1:35:26.960
<v Speaker 1>bit of money, we go to the East Californa. California

1:35:27.000 --> 1:35:28.800
<v Speaker 1>had a trade you say, you warn't over They had

1:35:28.840 --> 1:35:31.759
<v Speaker 1>to try the train system and the infrastructure for warehouse jobs.

1:35:32.320 --> 1:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think trying to escape racism. It was fo opportunity,

1:35:38.840 --> 1:35:40.560
<v Speaker 1>just based on the Gym Crow South. A lot a

1:35:40.600 --> 1:35:42.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of the people out organizing, like the l A

1:35:42.680 --> 1:35:44.640
<v Speaker 1>police chasing people like that they was getting from the

1:35:44.720 --> 1:35:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Gym Crow South kind of help. Real line of the

1:35:46.800 --> 1:35:48.960
<v Speaker 1>black communities in the Hispanic communities. Like you think about

1:35:49.000 --> 1:35:51.000
<v Speaker 1>how the freeways has been a railroad and with downtown

1:35:51.120 --> 1:35:53.479
<v Speaker 1>l A used to be like eight nine areas like that,

1:35:53.520 --> 1:35:55.439
<v Speaker 1>A zuslu rides and things of that nature. It's always

1:35:55.479 --> 1:35:58.040
<v Speaker 1>been a big separation. And how what he's saying is

1:35:58.120 --> 1:36:00.200
<v Speaker 1>the South kind of a lot of people came not

1:36:00.320 --> 1:36:02.000
<v Speaker 1>understanding what was going on. And we think about the

1:36:02.479 --> 1:36:04.640
<v Speaker 1>building of Venice and how Venice was built. You know,

1:36:04.680 --> 1:36:06.479
<v Speaker 1>A McKinney died, gave it to a black dude. So

1:36:06.560 --> 1:36:08.639
<v Speaker 1>he built the Oakland region for black and Hispanic people,

1:36:08.960 --> 1:36:11.400
<v Speaker 1>and then they took it in the late nineties. You

1:36:11.439 --> 1:36:14.040
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, because it was he writing this

1:36:14.080 --> 1:36:16.360
<v Speaker 1>sent because it was it was it wasn't a lot

1:36:16.400 --> 1:36:18.640
<v Speaker 1>of knowledge of what was going on in California. So

1:36:18.720 --> 1:36:20.840
<v Speaker 1>when people came to California was kind of taking off

1:36:20.880 --> 1:36:23.800
<v Speaker 1>guard by what happened, and a lot of people it

1:36:23.920 --> 1:36:27.000
<v Speaker 1>was presented the opportunities there was I think um before

1:36:27.320 --> 1:36:30.640
<v Speaker 1>or something like that. It was a big car, It

1:36:30.720 --> 1:36:33.000
<v Speaker 1>was a fist factor firestone factory. Yeah, it was a

1:36:33.040 --> 1:36:36.120
<v Speaker 1>big fire stool. And they were hiring, they were hiring brothers.

1:36:36.160 --> 1:36:38.160
<v Speaker 1>The brothers was going out and then you gotta realize

1:36:38.160 --> 1:36:42.400
<v Speaker 1>California's beautiful weather. So and they're in the South and

1:36:42.800 --> 1:36:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the Atlanta, South Carolina, uh, North Carolina, Virginia and all

1:36:47.400 --> 1:36:51.680
<v Speaker 1>these places where they're still flying the Confederate flag. So

1:36:51.840 --> 1:36:54.479
<v Speaker 1>anywhere to the people that don't got a Confederate flag

1:36:54.800 --> 1:36:57.840
<v Speaker 1>seems like the primis land to us in California and

1:36:57.920 --> 1:37:01.200
<v Speaker 1>New York being one. But the crazy the ship. When

1:37:01.240 --> 1:37:02.840
<v Speaker 1>people say it all kind of come from the South,

1:37:02.920 --> 1:37:05.200
<v Speaker 1>they're not kind of lying because all of our ancests

1:37:05.240 --> 1:37:07.439
<v Speaker 1>that was was out in the South at first. That's

1:37:07.479 --> 1:37:09.120
<v Speaker 1>where that's where to pick a cotton. It was happening,

1:37:09.120 --> 1:37:11.160
<v Speaker 1>and it happened to New York. Didn't happen in California.

1:37:11.160 --> 1:37:13.240
<v Speaker 1>That should have happened in the South. You understand, I'm saying,

1:37:13.800 --> 1:37:15.479
<v Speaker 1>we got deep today. We got deep today. I like that.

1:37:15.720 --> 1:37:21.960
<v Speaker 1>I like that. I like that. So yeah, so should

1:37:21.960 --> 1:37:27.200
<v Speaker 1>we talked about George Bush? Yeah, it was definitely not junior. Yeah, yeah,

1:37:27.400 --> 1:37:32.320
<v Speaker 1>that's diculous. That's why I was getting confused. L ten

1:37:32.360 --> 1:37:36.720
<v Speaker 1>forty nine. Wow, that's not far though. That's technically is

1:37:36.760 --> 1:37:38.640
<v Speaker 1>that where they started their oil business? Because it's all

1:37:38.680 --> 1:37:43.479
<v Speaker 1>there's a cowboys this cowboys in Compton. Yeah, like the

1:37:43.600 --> 1:37:49.320
<v Speaker 1>documentary I saw that. I forgot his name. Bro he

1:37:49.520 --> 1:37:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Um the Trap Kitchen put put us on because we

1:37:53.240 --> 1:37:56.720
<v Speaker 1>was out there filming for the trap kitchen. Yeah, the

1:37:56.840 --> 1:38:00.639
<v Speaker 1>blood and the cript, both of them, and leave. Sorry

1:38:00.680 --> 1:38:02.839
<v Speaker 1>to say it like this. It was getting some meat delivered,

1:38:03.120 --> 1:38:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, sorry, sorry to say it like that,

1:38:06.760 --> 1:38:09.120
<v Speaker 1>but you know, pause, and I was like, where is that.

1:38:09.200 --> 1:38:12.200
<v Speaker 1>They said that the homies come on on on the horses,

1:38:12.600 --> 1:38:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I'm thinking this is totally slang.

1:38:15.320 --> 1:38:16.920
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, I'm thinking, I'm out of the loop.

1:38:17.520 --> 1:38:19.640
<v Speaker 1>This is some l a slang that coming down on

1:38:19.800 --> 1:38:21.840
<v Speaker 1>with the horses. So I said, Nora, don't ask what

1:38:21.920 --> 1:38:24.599
<v Speaker 1>the horses is, you know, just just be cool. You're

1:38:24.640 --> 1:38:27.240
<v Speaker 1>in Compidon, you're in Compton. You have to trap kitchen.

1:38:27.720 --> 1:38:30.720
<v Speaker 1>And then the homie comes with a horse. And I'm like, nah, bro,

1:38:31.040 --> 1:38:33.720
<v Speaker 1>And I did not. I would never, like never in

1:38:33.760 --> 1:38:35.479
<v Speaker 1>a million years. The only time I think I see

1:38:35.760 --> 1:38:38.639
<v Speaker 1>a horse in New York City is a police police

1:38:38.640 --> 1:38:40.800
<v Speaker 1>officers on top of it. You can get you to

1:38:40.800 --> 1:38:42.360
<v Speaker 1>get you some landing coming, get you a little you

1:38:42.680 --> 1:38:47.120
<v Speaker 1>really really you went to trying to blue swag. My

1:38:47.240 --> 1:38:49.519
<v Speaker 1>aunt got like a football field in her backyard. Literally,

1:38:49.560 --> 1:38:56.040
<v Speaker 1>like it's crazy. So he did say, he said, he said,

1:38:56.040 --> 1:38:58.960
<v Speaker 1>but she get really horses. I also thought that was

1:38:59.000 --> 1:39:07.240
<v Speaker 1>a joke. Yeah, yeah, I'm Sharon's gonna shoot that horse everybody. Yeah,

1:39:07.240 --> 1:39:11.680
<v Speaker 1>you ain't gonna make it a horse count Yeah yeah,

1:39:12.240 --> 1:39:13.559
<v Speaker 1>I knew he was working with me with that far.

1:39:13.600 --> 1:39:15.680
<v Speaker 1>I knew he was spoke with that par but man,

1:39:15.720 --> 1:39:17.240
<v Speaker 1>hold on, I got a couple more. Okay, hold on,

1:39:18.000 --> 1:39:26.080
<v Speaker 1>all right, all right. This one disturbed me because when

1:39:26.120 --> 1:39:28.439
<v Speaker 1>I researched you, you know your your pistory, you know

1:39:28.560 --> 1:39:33.280
<v Speaker 1>your past, but you sat down with Joe Buden and

1:39:33.400 --> 1:39:35.760
<v Speaker 1>you told the whole crew you did not see New

1:39:35.880 --> 1:39:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Jack City. I still ain't see New Jack City. It's

1:39:38.160 --> 1:39:42.280
<v Speaker 1>on my list, though, it's on my lists, on my

1:39:42.320 --> 1:39:45.599
<v Speaker 1>list for your listen, what's what's before New Jack City

1:39:45.640 --> 1:39:49.720
<v Speaker 1>on your list? I just need to uh ship, that's

1:39:49.760 --> 1:39:51.360
<v Speaker 1>a good question I want to pull. I really got

1:39:51.400 --> 1:39:56.920
<v Speaker 1>a list of Saved by the Bell on that. I mean, look, bro,

1:39:57.920 --> 1:40:00.080
<v Speaker 1>ship when that come on? Yeah, I don't even no,

1:40:00.240 --> 1:40:04.240
<v Speaker 1>but it's just a classic, like the jay Is late

1:40:04.280 --> 1:40:06.920
<v Speaker 1>eighties South sent you came out before my time. I

1:40:07.040 --> 1:40:11.120
<v Speaker 1>saw it. See, I don't know. That's why I don't

1:40:11.120 --> 1:40:13.320
<v Speaker 1>see everything else. I don't love the New York movies,

1:40:13.360 --> 1:40:21.040
<v Speaker 1>but New n and Yesterday's Yeah, I don't know how.

1:40:21.080 --> 1:40:23.840
<v Speaker 1>I ain't seen it. You hear you hear references stuff

1:40:23.840 --> 1:40:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot. But I thought about what else. I've never

1:40:25.640 --> 1:40:29.920
<v Speaker 1>seen this movie. And it's based on the true story. Loosely, yes,

1:40:30.040 --> 1:40:32.240
<v Speaker 1>it's based on a true story. It's based Yeah, based

1:40:32.240 --> 1:40:36.599
<v Speaker 1>on a true story. Not everything accurate, Not everything accurate. Um,

1:40:38.760 --> 1:40:42.120
<v Speaker 1>the car, the Carter really existed, The Carter really existed.

1:40:42.160 --> 1:40:45.000
<v Speaker 1>The car still there. Carter is still spooky if you

1:40:45.040 --> 1:40:50.439
<v Speaker 1>actually walked by that the Carter. I don't know what's

1:40:50.439 --> 1:40:53.600
<v Speaker 1>it called the graad? Okay, I don't know if it

1:40:53.720 --> 1:40:55.720
<v Speaker 1>was called the car. But it's still there. It's still

1:40:55.800 --> 1:40:57.599
<v Speaker 1>in the hall. It's still it's still still in the hall.

1:40:58.080 --> 1:41:01.080
<v Speaker 1>So what's your relationship with fell I for he don't

1:41:01.080 --> 1:41:03.120
<v Speaker 1>gave me some good advice. I only I only linked

1:41:03.200 --> 1:41:05.240
<v Speaker 1>up with him like three or all time, but like

1:41:05.320 --> 1:41:07.960
<v Speaker 1>for real, really important, like in the Long Beach trajectory. Wow,

1:41:08.120 --> 1:41:10.120
<v Speaker 1>because I think what he was doing with Snoop and

1:41:10.120 --> 1:41:11.720
<v Speaker 1>what he did like what ice cream, like he was

1:41:11.720 --> 1:41:13.280
<v Speaker 1>just doing a t K. Well, is this dude named

1:41:13.360 --> 1:41:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Terry Kennedy and t K like a real nigger. So

1:41:18.400 --> 1:41:20.720
<v Speaker 1>like the fact he picked him up and like he

1:41:20.840 --> 1:41:24.280
<v Speaker 1>from Long Beach. Yeah, Team Black Mike. Mike passed though,

1:41:24.320 --> 1:41:28.600
<v Speaker 1>and he was Terry Lion online terror. That was a

1:41:28.720 --> 1:41:34.920
<v Speaker 1>TV ship though. That was he really long, but yeah,

1:41:35.200 --> 1:41:37.080
<v Speaker 1>he was freil came down there like he helped some

1:41:37.200 --> 1:41:39.400
<v Speaker 1>real dude the Long Beach skateboarding and big a Long

1:41:39.439 --> 1:41:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Beach all life like. It ain't never been like just

1:41:41.880 --> 1:41:44.760
<v Speaker 1>everybody doing type thing. But yeah, that was for a

1:41:44.880 --> 1:41:46.559
<v Speaker 1>got a really important place, a lot of a lot

1:41:46.640 --> 1:41:49.360
<v Speaker 1>of hard song buard broth, are you very important? That's

1:41:49.520 --> 1:41:53.720
<v Speaker 1>why out of all the West Coast dudes right that

1:41:53.840 --> 1:41:56.479
<v Speaker 1>I've ever heard, you know, with Tupac didn't come out.

1:41:56.640 --> 1:41:58.559
<v Speaker 1>I think the only two people that I've ever heard

1:41:58.680 --> 1:42:02.679
<v Speaker 1>say Tupac from New Bottommore, it's you and Whack one Hunter.

1:42:03.120 --> 1:42:05.519
<v Speaker 1>It's it's it's not fair to take that out his story,

1:42:06.280 --> 1:42:07.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, Like, if you if you

1:42:07.880 --> 1:42:10.040
<v Speaker 1>think about where he comes from, his parents, we can't

1:42:10.040 --> 1:42:11.880
<v Speaker 1>talk about his mother being a black panther and all

1:42:11.920 --> 1:42:13.720
<v Speaker 1>these other things. And I think about where she was

1:42:13.760 --> 1:42:15.920
<v Speaker 1>doing these things. So how are you gonna just pick

1:42:16.000 --> 1:42:17.840
<v Speaker 1>the parts of the you know, of course he say

1:42:17.920 --> 1:42:21.360
<v Speaker 1>he safe from but he keeps supports and claims California's

1:42:21.360 --> 1:42:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Cerntheiny just same way Corrupt claim Philadelphia in n l A.

1:42:24.280 --> 1:42:27.360
<v Speaker 1>But if you act corrupt about if they just took

1:42:27.400 --> 1:42:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia away from corrupt, I'm pretty sure he would be offended.

1:42:30.360 --> 1:42:33.479
<v Speaker 1>So when you think about Tupac from Baltimore and going

1:42:33.479 --> 1:42:36.519
<v Speaker 1>to New York and Baltimore and Marine City, you feel

1:42:36.600 --> 1:42:39.000
<v Speaker 1>me and then hanging uplom but really living in Marine

1:42:39.040 --> 1:42:41.080
<v Speaker 1>City and helping being to being an important part of

1:42:41.120 --> 1:42:44.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, hip hop at that point, take away his

1:42:44.640 --> 1:42:46.639
<v Speaker 1>digital underground ever, which a lot of people don't mention.

1:42:46.680 --> 1:42:48.200
<v Speaker 1>You get what I'm saying. That's I just don't like

1:42:48.280 --> 1:42:50.400
<v Speaker 1>miss leaving nothing out because he ain't here to say

1:42:50.400 --> 1:42:52.120
<v Speaker 1>what he want us to leave out. So you know,

1:42:52.240 --> 1:42:53.479
<v Speaker 1>you don't know what he was doing, and you know

1:42:53.560 --> 1:42:55.320
<v Speaker 1>he was working with Jada Pinket Smith or something like

1:42:55.400 --> 1:42:57.160
<v Speaker 1>that out there, Like that's clearly an important part of

1:42:57.200 --> 1:42:58.839
<v Speaker 1>his life, you know what I'm saying, Like that, Tupac

1:42:59.000 --> 1:43:02.559
<v Speaker 1>is the only guy who has a record about New York.

1:43:03.080 --> 1:43:05.720
<v Speaker 1>When he's talking about Skelly, he's talking about you know,

1:43:05.920 --> 1:43:08.639
<v Speaker 1>Baggy G. She's talking about all the New York ship

1:43:08.920 --> 1:43:10.760
<v Speaker 1>And I believe in one million per cent but then

1:43:10.800 --> 1:43:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I also believe California love. But but that's what I'm saying,

1:43:14.040 --> 1:43:16.040
<v Speaker 1>like you gotta think the I think he was creating

1:43:16.080 --> 1:43:17.599
<v Speaker 1>a real time. He wanted people that I was creating

1:43:17.680 --> 1:43:19.400
<v Speaker 1>things in real time to save music changed so much

1:43:19.400 --> 1:43:21.360
<v Speaker 1>because he was changing. He was trying to find his

1:43:21.439 --> 1:43:24.040
<v Speaker 1>footing in certain ways. So since he was finding his footing,

1:43:24.080 --> 1:43:25.640
<v Speaker 1>I think it's important to like to show the hole.

1:43:25.680 --> 1:43:27.240
<v Speaker 1>We are talked about having the whole story, and I'm

1:43:27.240 --> 1:43:29.160
<v Speaker 1>telling about truth and that's part of his story. And

1:43:29.200 --> 1:43:31.280
<v Speaker 1>that's probably the reason that he created the way that

1:43:31.360 --> 1:43:33.479
<v Speaker 1>he did, because I'm pretty sure it wasn't no niggas

1:43:33.479 --> 1:43:35.280
<v Speaker 1>out in Oakland or no niggas on the country just

1:43:35.280 --> 1:43:37.519
<v Speaker 1>hanging out trying to write poems like it was when

1:43:37.560 --> 1:43:39.160
<v Speaker 1>he was hanging out. Because I feel like I've spent

1:43:39.280 --> 1:43:41.559
<v Speaker 1>some time in New York and it's like I feel

1:43:41.600 --> 1:43:44.280
<v Speaker 1>like creativity is more on the forefront out there than

1:43:44.360 --> 1:43:46.240
<v Speaker 1>it is out here. Like a like if you even

1:43:46.280 --> 1:43:49.200
<v Speaker 1>take something sim was a graffitio said, our ship compared

1:43:49.200 --> 1:43:52.880
<v Speaker 1>to y'all ship is like completely different based on gang

1:43:53.000 --> 1:43:55.360
<v Speaker 1>like but that but even when it's not like even

1:43:55.400 --> 1:43:58.320
<v Speaker 1>if even even the people even the people from California

1:43:58.520 --> 1:44:01.160
<v Speaker 1>who are are are bigger. The city artists have tax

1:44:01.280 --> 1:44:02.920
<v Speaker 1>in New York, you know what I mean. So I

1:44:03.800 --> 1:44:07.080
<v Speaker 1>New York York. So I think I think those are

1:44:07.120 --> 1:44:10.240
<v Speaker 1>important things that lets the point out. I think I think, um,

1:44:11.640 --> 1:44:16.439
<v Speaker 1>I think New York and Callie really compliments each other,

1:44:16.560 --> 1:44:17.960
<v Speaker 1>like you know what I'm saying, Like like being from

1:44:18.040 --> 1:44:20.680
<v Speaker 1>New York and having to uh you know, go through

1:44:20.720 --> 1:44:23.240
<v Speaker 1>these winners and they happen to go to the California

1:44:23.240 --> 1:44:25.719
<v Speaker 1>and to adapt to that. I think those two states

1:44:25.840 --> 1:44:29.160
<v Speaker 1>when you when you're from that it really makes who

1:44:29.240 --> 1:44:31.600
<v Speaker 1>you are, Like if you could adapt to both environments,

1:44:31.880 --> 1:44:35.759
<v Speaker 1>but the way Pocket adapted or something totally different, because

1:44:36.120 --> 1:44:39.360
<v Speaker 1>like you said, you said, you said, um, I'm from

1:44:39.680 --> 1:44:42.679
<v Speaker 1>they from the hood, which or they're from that set

1:44:43.160 --> 1:44:46.120
<v Speaker 1>which when we say we from, we only mean where

1:44:46.160 --> 1:44:49.080
<v Speaker 1>we were born and what we what we were. When

1:44:49.160 --> 1:44:52.439
<v Speaker 1>you say a person is from that's a that's a

1:44:52.560 --> 1:44:55.080
<v Speaker 1>gang that they actually because of the first it could

1:44:55.080 --> 1:44:57.320
<v Speaker 1>be from cross the city. But if they're on the

1:44:57.400 --> 1:44:59.400
<v Speaker 1>role in the sixties, they're from the roll in the sixties.

1:44:59.800 --> 1:45:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Is that because that the way it's like, it's like,

1:45:02.000 --> 1:45:04.559
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, man, these niggas that's from hoods that they

1:45:04.560 --> 1:45:06.160
<v Speaker 1>ain't even grow up in. Like I know dudes who

1:45:06.520 --> 1:45:07.920
<v Speaker 1>grow up in a long beach with us, but their

1:45:08.000 --> 1:45:12.080
<v Speaker 1>dad's is from Conference, so they're from their dad's neighborhood exactly.

1:45:12.160 --> 1:45:15.240
<v Speaker 1>They from there. So it's like it's just a different dynamic.

1:45:15.320 --> 1:45:17.280
<v Speaker 1>But I think, you know, they do compliment each other well,

1:45:17.280 --> 1:45:19.200
<v Speaker 1>and I feel like it's something that we, you know,

1:45:19.360 --> 1:45:20.960
<v Speaker 1>we kind of overlooked. You know a lot of the

1:45:21.040 --> 1:45:23.920
<v Speaker 1>time when you think about Ice Cubes connections with you know,

1:45:24.200 --> 1:45:28.400
<v Speaker 1>his first when you think about sucking uh l cool,

1:45:28.439 --> 1:45:30.920
<v Speaker 1>they're going back to CALLI shouting out, been a shoutline

1:45:30.960 --> 1:45:33.280
<v Speaker 1>crib like on the bridge of his hit single, Like,

1:45:33.760 --> 1:45:36.000
<v Speaker 1>there's certain things that you know, it's it's some really

1:45:36.040 --> 1:45:39.000
<v Speaker 1>good connectivity for him because it's like, um with Prodigy.

1:45:39.120 --> 1:45:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm in with Prodessy for a long time in this

1:45:42.160 --> 1:45:46.080
<v Speaker 1>in a in a Queen's thing. Prodacy also always kind

1:45:46.080 --> 1:45:48.280
<v Speaker 1>of admitted to him not being from Queen's Bridge, but

1:45:48.360 --> 1:45:51.200
<v Speaker 1>admitted to him adapting it from Queen's Bridge. But the

1:45:51.240 --> 1:45:55.160
<v Speaker 1>people that what's really from his neighborhood really kind of

1:45:55.200 --> 1:45:57.599
<v Speaker 1>forgave him from that, like like to the Dying Day.

1:45:58.040 --> 1:46:01.679
<v Speaker 1>Is that something that you guys from l A as serious? Yeah,

1:46:01.800 --> 1:46:04.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's what California. So this is one thing though

1:46:04.960 --> 1:46:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Also I feel like, you know a lot of that

1:46:09.080 --> 1:46:12.680
<v Speaker 1>comes from, you know, this conformity type thing, like I'm

1:46:12.680 --> 1:46:15.679
<v Speaker 1>sorry to cut Yorks even me. When my first record

1:46:15.720 --> 1:46:18.400
<v Speaker 1>came out was l A l A. And they kept

1:46:18.439 --> 1:46:21.439
<v Speaker 1>saying the Queen's Bridge Group, and like everyone from our

1:46:21.479 --> 1:46:23.479
<v Speaker 1>neighborhood was like, why the fund you keep letting them

1:46:23.520 --> 1:46:25.200
<v Speaker 1>call you the queens Bridge Group? Like I would have

1:46:25.320 --> 1:46:27.880
<v Speaker 1>control over fucking Dottie citizens or that's what I'm saying.

1:46:27.880 --> 1:46:29.519
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm saying. It's it's a market sing that

1:46:29.600 --> 1:46:31.280
<v Speaker 1>since the end of the day. Like whenever when I

1:46:31.280 --> 1:46:33.559
<v Speaker 1>put out ship, be like, oh the Los Angeles rapper

1:46:33.600 --> 1:46:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I was saying, but it's like and it's to bother me,

1:46:35.120 --> 1:46:37.599
<v Speaker 1>but it's like they don't know no difference. Like bron

1:46:37.680 --> 1:46:39.760
<v Speaker 1>I took a pitch. I haven't been on like press shure,

1:46:39.800 --> 1:46:41.000
<v Speaker 1>they'd be like, oh, you want to throw up like

1:46:41.080 --> 1:46:42.680
<v Speaker 1>a w And I will never do that ship in

1:46:42.760 --> 1:46:44.880
<v Speaker 1>my life. It's like, oh, why that made something different?

1:46:44.920 --> 1:46:48.040
<v Speaker 1>Where I live back, I can get mad or I

1:46:48.080 --> 1:46:49.720
<v Speaker 1>can just you know, explain it a little bit. But

1:46:50.200 --> 1:46:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I mean, it's a ganging is that's not

1:46:53.080 --> 1:46:55.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's not tending the truth. But you gotta

1:46:55.600 --> 1:46:57.360
<v Speaker 1>think they're trying to make their little money. So if

1:46:57.400 --> 1:46:59.519
<v Speaker 1>they were, it's not that they ashamed probably for the

1:46:59.560 --> 1:47:01.240
<v Speaker 1>most part, probably trying to get in where they fan

1:47:01.360 --> 1:47:03.760
<v Speaker 1>may more proper to how different with the record straight

1:47:03.840 --> 1:47:06.240
<v Speaker 1>up the Compton be if if if Ice Cube said

1:47:06.960 --> 1:47:10.479
<v Speaker 1>they straight out and I'm not so he don't sound

1:47:10.600 --> 1:47:13.600
<v Speaker 1>crazy like you know what I mean? It was on

1:47:13.720 --> 1:47:15.840
<v Speaker 1>music like you know Dr Dre We all know he's

1:47:15.880 --> 1:47:18.000
<v Speaker 1>like he's a musician. He wasn't know, like super duper

1:47:18.080 --> 1:47:19.720
<v Speaker 1>gangster like he went up to drifting ice cu No.

1:47:19.800 --> 1:47:20.880
<v Speaker 1>But what I'm saying this is, you know, like you

1:47:20.920 --> 1:47:24.000
<v Speaker 1>know an ice Cube was' from like Dr Drake wasn't from.

1:47:24.000 --> 1:47:27.400
<v Speaker 1>There wasn't a gangster or whatever. You dude. Yeah, but

1:47:27.439 --> 1:47:29.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like but they don't take away from what they created, right,

1:47:29.920 --> 1:47:31.679
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean? So what they created stand

1:47:31.680 --> 1:47:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the test of time, and they changed the world. Who

1:47:33.479 --> 1:47:35.479
<v Speaker 1>fucking cares? You know what I mean, They didn't hurt nobody,

1:47:35.760 --> 1:47:38.560
<v Speaker 1>real talk, real motherfucking talk. Le's make some noise for that.

1:47:39.479 --> 1:47:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Go on, I'm gonna take a shot. Hold on taking

1:47:42.040 --> 1:47:46.280
<v Speaker 1>a shot. No, no, I'm listening. Man. You're a fan

<v Speaker 1>the world. You know what? You know what, I know.

1:49:47.360 --> 1:49:49.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm changing the subject a little bit. You don't remember

1:49:49.320 --> 1:49:52.560
<v Speaker 1>when Dave Chappelle went back in time and to be

1:49:52.680 --> 1:49:55.720
<v Speaker 1>the pimps and did you play they don't know to play?

1:49:55.920 --> 1:50:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Remember they ripped the masters? Yeah yeah, yeah, Like think

1:50:00.280 --> 1:50:02.840
<v Speaker 1>that should be a whole movie. Like look that, you

1:50:02.880 --> 1:50:04.880
<v Speaker 1>know how the brothers be Like if I was a slave,

1:50:05.000 --> 1:50:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't have been out there, Like I want to

1:50:06.840 --> 1:50:10.240
<v Speaker 1>put those brothers back in that time and how they

1:50:10.320 --> 1:50:16.280
<v Speaker 1>asked me. Ship is not built for that slavery. The

1:50:16.360 --> 1:50:19.479
<v Speaker 1>nigs strong back then. Man, you ever thought you ever

1:50:19.560 --> 1:50:24.080
<v Speaker 1>thought hip hop making this walk? I didn't see the beginning,

1:50:24.720 --> 1:50:26.760
<v Speaker 1>and I think that's I think that's like you gotta think.

1:50:26.800 --> 1:50:30.240
<v Speaker 1>My whole life ain't nothing been important but like rappers

1:50:30.320 --> 1:50:32.600
<v Speaker 1>and you know, R and B was already there, like

1:50:32.760 --> 1:50:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I brought until I got I didn't really know what

1:50:35.080 --> 1:50:36.880
<v Speaker 1>pop music was. I'm not exaggerate. I didn't when I

1:50:36.880 --> 1:50:38.840
<v Speaker 1>grew up. I don't know what InSync was. I don't

1:50:38.840 --> 1:50:40.360
<v Speaker 1>know backs people, I don't know. No, I don't know

1:50:40.600 --> 1:50:42.840
<v Speaker 1>no Britney Spears, No, none of that ship meant nothing

1:50:42.840 --> 1:50:45.080
<v Speaker 1>to me. The biggest no, I don't know, not that

1:50:47.040 --> 1:50:52.080
<v Speaker 1>it's like you got you got me, you gotta Beyonce, y'all,

1:50:52.200 --> 1:50:54.519
<v Speaker 1>y'all you got sucking. Uh you know, it was just

1:50:55.720 --> 1:50:58.000
<v Speaker 1>even down to like funing. I grew up like flavor

1:50:58.080 --> 1:50:59.680
<v Speaker 1>lovers on TV. I've never seen the real world. I

1:50:59.800 --> 1:51:02.280
<v Speaker 1>was my family black is like, don't know black ship,

1:51:02.720 --> 1:51:05.600
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know nothing outside of hip hop. But

1:51:05.840 --> 1:51:07.760
<v Speaker 1>when you think about, you know, how resilient black people

1:51:07.760 --> 1:51:10.320
<v Speaker 1>live in how resilient like people from these communities are

1:51:10.320 --> 1:51:12.760
<v Speaker 1>in general, like even even even outside of racially like

1:51:12.960 --> 1:51:15.000
<v Speaker 1>our environment, you know that we've created that we know,

1:51:15.160 --> 1:51:17.160
<v Speaker 1>even a lot of other people to come into. You know,

1:51:17.360 --> 1:51:19.280
<v Speaker 1>it's I could definitely see it because we're dealt with

1:51:19.360 --> 1:51:21.439
<v Speaker 1>so much worse. But I don't know access to you know,

1:51:21.520 --> 1:51:23.640
<v Speaker 1>get our voices out what I know access to you know,

1:51:24.160 --> 1:51:25.880
<v Speaker 1>be really seen or her. So I could for shall

1:51:25.880 --> 1:51:28.719
<v Speaker 1>see it happening right now. One thing I was scared

1:51:28.800 --> 1:51:32.120
<v Speaker 1>of because I smoke a lot, was you got like

1:51:32.160 --> 1:51:34.400
<v Speaker 1>a not of gold in hella, but you've got like

1:51:34.479 --> 1:51:36.400
<v Speaker 1>a special in Hella. Oh yeah, I got. I got

1:51:36.479 --> 1:51:38.519
<v Speaker 1>the high and heavy duty high power ship. I got

1:51:38.600 --> 1:51:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the white one, and I got the blowing with the

1:51:40.479 --> 1:51:42.120
<v Speaker 1>They change the colors a lot. But I like the

1:51:42.160 --> 1:51:46.320
<v Speaker 1>way you describe it like it's drugs. Like it's like

1:51:46.840 --> 1:51:51.200
<v Speaker 1>it's an access Like I've never heard nobody break down

1:51:51.400 --> 1:51:53.680
<v Speaker 1>in heal, like my ship got better than my she

1:51:53.760 --> 1:51:55.320
<v Speaker 1>should be real bad. I should I hued not be

1:51:55.320 --> 1:51:57.800

<v Speaker 1>But really, so that's so I never knew that that

1:52:16.720 --> 1:52:19.360
<v Speaker 1>you could eat. It's just a chip when your body

1:52:19.360 --> 1:52:21.599
<v Speaker 1>knows what if I went along before I lived alone,

1:52:21.640 --> 1:52:22.960

1:52:33.760 --> 1:52:34.960

1:52:45.200 --> 1:52:46.439
<v Speaker 1>a little bit ship a little bit better. I was

1:52:46.439 --> 1:52:49.240
<v Speaker 1>able to be straight. So for people that don't know, like, like,

1:52:49.320 --> 1:52:51.080
<v Speaker 1>what would you have to do change your diet? Like

<v Speaker 1>ship stops to stop you stop you like I ed sometimes,

1:52:55.520 --> 1:52:56.680
<v Speaker 1>but like not as much I used to. Used to

1:52:56.720 --> 1:52:58.640
<v Speaker 1>be like a cheeseburger, chili, cheese fries every day time

1:52:58.640 --> 1:53:01.120
<v Speaker 1>and not nine seen at the winter snitchel, you feel

1:53:01.120 --> 1:53:03.679

1:53:06.120 --> 1:53:08.639
<v Speaker 1>to my hood's. Um, I'm sorry you went too fast?

1:53:08.760 --> 1:53:12.479
<v Speaker 1>What man, it's heat, don't worry about it. Don't work

1:53:12.520 --> 1:53:18.760
<v Speaker 1>to see you. It's no, he went too fast. Hold on, yeah,

<v Speaker 1>a five for five and he's had a ten for ten,

1:53:38.360 --> 1:53:40.600

1:53:53.439 --> 1:53:55.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not really fucking with the hot dog like, so

1:53:55.640 --> 1:53:57.200

1:55:04.360 --> 1:55:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Fried Chicken and he like, you will see that, you don't.

1:55:06.680 --> 1:55:08.440
<v Speaker 1>You don't see the letters there because this is back

1:55:08.480 --> 1:55:11.240
<v Speaker 1>in the days. And I'm like, I don't look at

1:55:11.760 --> 1:55:14.680
<v Speaker 1>uh something and look and see it red and think

1:55:14.760 --> 1:55:18.360
<v Speaker 1>that that's a sign. So I s with the God.

1:55:18.360 --> 1:55:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I went to the seven eleven, like seven days. The

1:55:21.920 --> 1:55:24.120
<v Speaker 1>seven days I was there. I needed to see the corruptions.

1:55:24.360 --> 1:55:26.400
<v Speaker 1>The eighth of the ninth day, and you know, him

1:55:26.400 --> 1:55:29.040
<v Speaker 1>and dads came out. They helped me down, but you know,

1:55:29.080 --> 1:55:30.960
<v Speaker 1>I was busy and see him, but when I went

1:55:31.000 --> 1:55:33.160
<v Speaker 1>to the same exact places I was going to, they

1:55:33.200 --> 1:55:35.520
<v Speaker 1>were like, no, cause we can't do that because like

1:55:35.600 --> 1:55:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you don't see. I looked, and I was like, damn.

1:55:37.360 --> 1:55:40.320
<v Speaker 1>Louisiana Fried Chicken at the time was in red letters.

1:55:41.280 --> 1:55:43.000
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, but I don't put two and

1:55:43.040 --> 1:55:45.280
<v Speaker 1>two together like that. Like I don't look at graffiti

1:55:46.040 --> 1:55:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and say, you know, because I'm Puerto Rican. So when

1:55:48.600 --> 1:55:50.880
<v Speaker 1>I look at grafiti, I'm looking at the actual art

1:55:50.960 --> 1:55:53.120
<v Speaker 1>to it, like I'm actually green. When it comes to that,

1:55:53.160 --> 1:55:56.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking like, Okay, this says such and SuDS. Okay,

1:55:56.160 --> 1:55:58.360
<v Speaker 1>this is great nuts, great nut Street. Okay, I'm thinking.

1:55:58.800 --> 1:56:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not thinking gang Let's take it nine Old that's

1:56:02.120 --> 1:56:05.160
<v Speaker 1>where they stay. Yeah, I'm not thinking. I'm to East

1:56:05.240 --> 1:56:09.520
<v Speaker 1>l A. No, no, no, you'll be fine ether because

1:56:09.560 --> 1:56:11.440
<v Speaker 1>the graffitia in East l A is crazy. Y'all love

1:56:11.440 --> 1:56:13.720
<v Speaker 1>the graffitia like soop like over there, like when you

1:56:13.760 --> 1:56:15.520
<v Speaker 1>get a little bit behind Burbank, like it's like a

1:56:15.560 --> 1:56:18.080
<v Speaker 1>little tunnel that they'd be all in. I'll tell you

1:56:18.240 --> 1:56:20.320
<v Speaker 1>a funny story about East l A real quickly. I

1:56:20.400 --> 1:56:23.080
<v Speaker 1>did a movie with my friend Noel g Fast and

1:56:23.160 --> 1:56:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Furious he's been fast and curious. I didn't do fast curious.

1:56:25.920 --> 1:56:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Obviously the movie I don't want to name the movie

1:56:27.480 --> 1:56:31.160
<v Speaker 1>because the movie is horrible. Um, but I did play

1:56:31.200 --> 1:56:33.720
<v Speaker 1>the black guy fucked and I got killed, um because

1:56:33.720 --> 1:56:38.440
<v Speaker 1>that's how matter. So um So, one day, uh we

1:56:38.640 --> 1:56:40.720
<v Speaker 1>we you know, we we exchanged numbers this after the

1:56:40.800 --> 1:56:42.840
<v Speaker 1>movie and he says, you know, boom boom, and you

1:56:42.840 --> 1:56:44.640
<v Speaker 1>know we shoot the sh sai. Y'all be bringing my hood,

1:56:44.800 --> 1:56:47.640
<v Speaker 1>he said, y'all bringing in my hood. And one day

1:56:47.680 --> 1:56:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that I came back to l A and I'm saying, hey, man,

1:56:49.400 --> 1:56:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you know I'm out here, and He's like, you nor

1:56:51.680 --> 1:56:55.240
<v Speaker 1>right now, I don't really want to bring you around

1:56:55.320 --> 1:56:58.240
<v Speaker 1>there because even though your Puerto Rican, it might take

1:56:58.640 --> 1:57:01.480
<v Speaker 1>a long time for people to identified that your Puerto Rican.

1:57:02.120 --> 1:57:04.560
<v Speaker 1>And right now there's a big wall going on, at

1:57:04.640 --> 1:57:07.840
<v Speaker 1>least at the time with the blacks and um and

1:57:07.960 --> 1:57:12.120
<v Speaker 1>the Mexicans. And he's basically saying, man, you look black.

1:57:13.760 --> 1:57:16.320
<v Speaker 1>And then we didn't go. We didn't go. That's that's

1:57:16.360 --> 1:57:18.160

2:00:47.400 --> 2:00:49.040
<v Speaker 1>just did the worst. He said, dude, do it from

2:00:49.080 --> 2:00:51.560
<v Speaker 1>here to here. But I think a lot of that

2:00:51.640 --> 2:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>came from me doing that big Fish ureut prior because

2:00:53.680 --> 2:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>it's funny, like I had, I did the trailer all

2:00:55.920 --> 2:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>this other stuff and then they made the soundtrack. So

2:00:58.240 --> 2:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, I like, I like to think that it's

2:01:00.600 --> 2:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of uh, I kind of helped out a

2:01:02.640 --> 2:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>little bit, you know, being on the project and having

2:01:04.400 --> 2:01:05.800
<v Speaker 1>the trailer, you know, a lot A lot of it

2:01:05.880 --> 2:01:08.680
<v Speaker 1>was to help the Black Panther go. You Black Panther

2:01:08.720 --> 2:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>to be the biggest movie in the world. I mean

2:01:11.440 --> 2:01:16.400
<v Speaker 1>what we're saying, you have the biggest moving in the world. Now.

2:01:17.360 --> 2:01:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know bouncing around, but one of my favorite

2:01:20.360 --> 2:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>joints besides North North and back back and all this

2:01:24.640 --> 2:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>other was uh fu n right, we ain't trying to

2:01:28.440 --> 2:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>funk up now. I really wish I had that as

2:01:31.720 --> 2:01:34.480
<v Speaker 1>my theme song. And I was swear to God because

2:01:34.520 --> 2:01:38.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like, now, tell me if I directed there, if

2:01:38.480 --> 2:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I m understood this record wrong. Well, at one point

2:01:43.200 --> 2:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>me I was being for every club in New York City.

2:01:46.080 --> 2:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Not a fact, it's I mean, I mean, it's not

2:01:48.320 --> 2:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>a rumor. This is a pure fact. This was why

2:01:50.800 --> 2:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I discovered reggae thrown because I can only go to

2:01:52.840 --> 2:01:57.400
<v Speaker 1>the Spanish clubs. They weren't. They weren't. So I just became,

2:01:57.800 --> 2:02:00.240
<v Speaker 1>let's do this ship. That ain't mean that, you know

2:02:00.240 --> 2:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. Connection. I went fully never go four Retald,

2:02:04.360 --> 2:02:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I went full Retald. Whents just true. So, um, what

2:02:08.200 --> 2:02:11.800
<v Speaker 1>was I talking about damn. I was into it no

2:02:11.920 --> 2:02:15.840
<v Speaker 1>before that, go for it if you win, So that

2:02:15.960 --> 2:02:18.320
<v Speaker 1>would have been my song. I would have played to

2:02:18.480 --> 2:02:23.600
<v Speaker 1>security guards that had my pictures band when they said

2:02:24.160 --> 2:02:26.080
<v Speaker 1>you can't get in this club. I remember Punning one

2:02:26.120 --> 2:02:28.760
<v Speaker 1>time told me to come to a party. I told Punt,

2:02:28.760 --> 2:02:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm bad, and Punt It's like, I'm Pune, There's

2:02:32.520 --> 2:02:35.320
<v Speaker 1>no way you're bad. I said, I'm bad. So I

2:02:35.440 --> 2:02:38.200
<v Speaker 1>actually went, this is how bad. I knew I was banned.

2:02:39.200 --> 2:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I went, I left my key in the bends like running.

2:02:42.720 --> 2:02:45.640
<v Speaker 1>This is because I knew they's gonna see me right away,

2:02:45.840 --> 2:02:48.880
<v Speaker 1>so I had my hoodie on. As soon as they

2:02:48.960 --> 2:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>see me, they was like, you're better to keep the

2:02:50.880 --> 2:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>funk off this line and you're getting arrested. And I

2:02:53.400 --> 2:02:54.960
<v Speaker 1>was like all right, cool, and I just left and

2:02:55.000 --> 2:02:57.360
<v Speaker 1>then Punk goes to be like Punk goes like, yo,

2:03:07.520 --> 2:03:09.960

2:06:49.440 --> 2:06:51.440
<v Speaker 1>make me that. Give me what I got and let

2:06:51.480 --> 2:06:52.920
<v Speaker 1>me know what's real, and I'm gonna work with it.

2:06:53.040 --> 2:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>You feel me. You're gonna lead a single? One for

2:06:55.760 --> 2:06:58.640

2:06:58.680 --> 2:07:00.440
<v Speaker 1>I did the video for the song called a Lot

2:07:00.440 --> 2:07:03.400
<v Speaker 1>of Averages. Then uh I got put all of average

2:07:03.400 --> 2:07:05.400
<v Speaker 1>and love of averages and that's pretty much it. Like

2:07:06.200 --> 2:07:08.840
<v Speaker 1>singles now, it's like ship you know, put out whatever

2:07:09.000 --> 2:07:10.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of helps set the palette for the visual. You

2:07:10.800 --> 2:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>make great bodies of work exactly. You know it's not me,

2:07:13.240 --> 2:07:14.760
<v Speaker 1>you see me. So I'll just do what I do

2:07:15.040 --> 2:07:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and you know, go from there. Did you make music

2:07:16.800 --> 2:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>for sinking in this one or not? No, I'll just

2:07:19.120 --> 2:07:21.120
<v Speaker 1>shooting at the house because I'm at the point now

2:07:21.320 --> 2:07:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to make my own show, So I'll make

2:07:23.000 --> 2:07:25.240
<v Speaker 1>a do that. You know, you put your own music

2:07:25.520 --> 2:07:28.880
<v Speaker 1>exactly on future. Was that made to sink somewhere? No,

2:07:29.080 --> 2:07:30.960
<v Speaker 1>that wasn't made to sink, But I think that got

2:07:31.000 --> 2:07:33.520
<v Speaker 1>a couple of things to that because like that was

2:07:33.680 --> 2:07:36.320
<v Speaker 1>a combination I didn't see coming. Well, yeah, what happened

2:07:36.440 --> 2:07:38.800
<v Speaker 1>was so that it was a part of that song,

2:07:39.400 --> 2:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>this song called Covering the Money, and it was a

2:07:40.960 --> 2:07:42.440
<v Speaker 1>part son of that. I was just that song a lot,

2:07:42.920 --> 2:07:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and then I wanted to utilize that part of the

2:07:45.440 --> 2:07:47.200

2:09:13.080 --> 2:09:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm still a legend, but I'm cold, like

2:09:14.800 --> 2:09:16.600
<v Speaker 1>being cold is cold, Like I don't want to stand

2:09:16.680 --> 2:09:18.400
<v Speaker 1>next to us cold soup. You know what I'm saying.

2:09:18.400 --> 2:09:20.160
<v Speaker 1>They're like, oh, you know what I'm saying, Like no

2:09:20.240 --> 2:09:21.920
<v Speaker 1>one wants that, you know what I'm saying. So um

2:09:22.200 --> 2:09:24.280
<v Speaker 1>for Todd dollar Signe to be the first one to

2:09:24.280 --> 2:09:26.280
<v Speaker 1>step up and say, you know what Nori, because I

2:09:26.360 --> 2:09:29.120
<v Speaker 1>think he thought my heir was lost, which he probably

2:09:29.200 --> 2:09:30.800
<v Speaker 1>was right to a certain extent. He's like, let me

2:09:30.840 --> 2:09:33.280
<v Speaker 1>give you some young wave. Let me use something some

2:09:33.440 --> 2:09:36.680
<v Speaker 1>young and he so he brung in mustard and mustard

2:09:36.680 --> 2:09:38.560
<v Speaker 1>could easy. But like, I ain't with that. You made

2:09:38.600 --> 2:09:40.560
<v Speaker 1>a deal with Nori, not me, and they both held

2:09:40.600 --> 2:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>me down, and I wanted to say, you know, that's

2:09:42.960 --> 2:09:45.880
<v Speaker 1>the definition of how this is supposed to be, Like

2:09:46.200 --> 2:09:49.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, older statesman with a younger statesman is supposed

2:09:49.320 --> 2:09:53.280
<v Speaker 1>to and the young it's not always the oldest statesman teaching.

2:09:54.000 --> 2:09:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes it's the older statesman listening and learning. And I

2:09:57.400 --> 2:09:59.520
<v Speaker 1>had to listen and learn because you know, I was

2:09:59.640 --> 2:10:01.720
<v Speaker 1>all a about just my camp, just with me working

2:10:01.800 --> 2:10:03.680
<v Speaker 1>on Furst Off going on is Parrell Like I'm not

2:10:03.920 --> 2:10:06.960
<v Speaker 1>getting a beat from someone else. So for me, I

2:10:07.000 --> 2:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>had to hum on myself first, like you know what

2:10:09.000 --> 2:10:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Musty was coming up with. Mustery was hot and you know,

2:10:12.240 --> 2:10:15.080
<v Speaker 1>but I really appreciated that that that that that commandity,

2:10:15.160 --> 2:10:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that's what it's called. I really appreciated what they did

2:10:17.440 --> 2:10:19.800
<v Speaker 1>because you know, they tried to beat me in today world,

2:10:19.920 --> 2:10:22.680
<v Speaker 1>and which you're supposed to do. Like a collaboration. It's

2:10:22.680 --> 2:10:25.240
<v Speaker 1>only a collaboration if you're my fans fun with you,

2:10:25.440 --> 2:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>and your fans smoke with me, you know what I'm saying.

2:10:27.360 --> 2:10:29.440
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's a real collaboration. And I always say

2:10:29.480 --> 2:10:31.880
<v Speaker 1>this because some fund up ship. The only two times

2:10:31.920 --> 2:10:35.320

<v Speaker 1>a reggae tone. No no I different. I didn't know.

2:10:47.120 --> 2:10:48.920

2:11:00.080 --> 2:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>when I seen the bed rooms, I did it my

2:11:10.360 --> 2:11:15.240
