Speaker 5: Not that you haven't given us great interviews. I haven't

19
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 5: had it, you know what I'm saying.

20
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 7: You have had some you know studio.

21
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 2: I'm out of that. I'm not that comsation.

22
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 5: But you have always coming in and gave giving us

23
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 5: great conversation. Man.

24
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 6: And I've been enjoying the Magic City docuseries and it

25
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 6: got me to thinking about like just Atlanta. Like in

26
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 6: Atlanta's had a lot of different runs as far as

27
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 6: music is concerned.

28
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 5: But what is Atlanta culture exactly? Is it? This? Is

29
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 5: it the script clubs?

30
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, that that's one of the things skating, you know,

31
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 7: And you know, I think like it's a bunch of

32
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 7: different things, like the base music and a bunch of

33
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 7: different things. But we haven't we've never really highlighted these

34
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 7: things the way I guess I'm trying to do and

35
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 7: make sure that people understand that that's what it is,

36
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 7: because I think like people think, like even with the

37
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 7: strip club situation, it was me and whoever else was

38
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 7: promoting this from a long time ago, just black people

39
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 7: trying to promote strip clubs. And you learned from the

40
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 7: documentary that this this was a law that was passed

41
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 7: in the city and might be more states in this

42
00:01:54,200 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 7: you know South, that nudity was something that they opened

43
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 7: the floodgates and made it a business.

44
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 5: Right.

45
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 2: So even me growing.

46
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 7: Up, I never realized why it was so many strip

47
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 7: clubs in Atlanta. It was a strip club, damn on

48
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 7: every corner in every hood in Atlanta, and I never understood.

49
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 2: I just thought we was just a strip club place.

50
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 2: But when you look.

51
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 7: At this documentary, you start going outside and looking at

52
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 7: all the other places, like in Florida and all these

53
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 7: other places. You're like, oh, it's a law that was passed, right,

54
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 7: And I used to come to like New York when

55
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 7: we used to do things and wherever. I go to

56
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 7: other cities and be like, man, why these cities ain't

57
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 7: popping like Atlanta with the strip clubs. And the law

58
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 7: is a real law that gave us the entryway to

59
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 7: just have this going.

60
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: So there, that's a that's an Atlanta thing. You know.

61
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: It's Magic City, the biggest strip club and the most

62
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 3: recognized trip club in the US.

63
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: To you what you think, what your thoughts on it?

64
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 7: Nah, I think I mean, I think it's been It's

65
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 7: been a couple you know, over the years. I think

66
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 7: Magic is in the top three, of course, but like

67
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 7: Booby trapping, Miami, King of Diamonds when I mean, you know,

68
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 7: Miami's always had you know what I mean, They've always

69
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 7: had these trip clubs turn over and be live. I

70
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 7: think that's Houston. So I think Houston, it's a couple

71
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 7: of places that's got. But I don't think Houston can

72
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 7: get naked though.

73
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: That's the thing.

74
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 7: It's like we're talking about Nudy is Flord's strip clubs

75
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 7: is Miami.

76
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 5: And.

77
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, Atlanta was nudy, nudity.

78
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 6: Atlanta need that infrastructure. Now, That's what when I think

79
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 6: about Magic City. I know people look at it as

80
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 6: just a teddy ball, but when I'm watching The Doctor,

81
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 6: even just growing up, I.

82
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 5: Think of it as infrastructure. People with the break record,

83
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 5: I want.

84
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 7: To say, I mean, that's the that's the thing. Like

85
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 7: I was going to answer your question. The reason why

86
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 7: I wanted to do it is because, you know, we

87
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 7: don't talk about the places that actually helped us get

88
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 7: to where we are.

89
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? That part of hip hop

90
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: stopped a long time ago.

91
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 7: Like when you watch like Why Style, right when there's

92
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 7: a person that's not from New York.

93
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: I watched Wild Style.

94
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 7: You can see like how Grandmaster cads them what they

95
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 7: was doing to become and made what made hip hop

96
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 7: turn into what it was here in New York. And

97
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 7: in the later years of hip hop, what shows or anything,

98
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 7: show kids what how we got?

99
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, how we got to where

100
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: we are?

101
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 7: And I think that, you know, it's important for black

102
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 7: establishments to show like it's a forty year old black establishment.

103
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 7: The owner went to jail, they tried to sell his property.

104
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 7: He took it back over and now it's back popping.

105
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 7: Then that he got a TV show Like that's American dream,

106
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 7: you know what I mean? Like, regardless of whatever good

107
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 7: or bad, it's a Black American dream that we don't

108
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 7: ever really be talking.

109
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 6: About infrastructure now, huh is it needed?

110
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 5: Now? Yeah?

111
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 7: I mean we needed more than any everybody. I mean,

112
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 7: not just Atlanta, like a bunch of cities need to.

113
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 7: It's probably a bunch of other thats got like forty

114
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 7: to fifty year old Black establishments that don't that I

115
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 7: don't even know about.

116
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: What do you think ruined strip clubs? Because at one

117
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 3: time there was a strip club in every city. They

118
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 3: were always big. There was fifteen in Atlanta, there was

119
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 3: ten in New York. What do you think ruined the

120
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 3: strip club safety?

121
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: Right?

122
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 7: I think that's why magic stands out so much, because

123
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 7: you can go in magic with all your jury on.

124
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 7: You can go on magic and be the biggest star

125
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,679
Speaker 7: in the world and be standing next to the biggest

126
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 7: criminal in the world. But whatever would happen somewhere else

127
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 7: ain't getting ready to happen in magic. And you know,

128
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 7: I mean, and I say that proudly because even me,

129
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 7: I go to Magic without security, like because the security

130
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 7: in there gonna take care of me like they like

131
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 7: if they was working for me. And I feel like

132
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 7: it's the safest club in Atlanta.

133
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 2: So I feel like that.

134
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 7: I feel like the safety of strip clubs and how

135
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 7: Magic ran the club strip club atiquette, I think that

136
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 7: is that that's what killed strip clubs for the most part.

137
00:05:59,520 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 5: Now.

138
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 3: Also, I notice, you know, growing up, when we used

139
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: to go to strip clubs, you go with a couple

140
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 3: of dollars, right, and you would you will be fine

141
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 3: all night.

142
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 4: That's totally changed that.

143
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 7: That's just your mental okay, right, that's just people's mental space, right,

144
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 7: because I go to the club now and you know,

145
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 7: I don't if the if Magic City is like overly crowded,

146
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 7: I'll go stand by the bar and I might spend

147
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 7: five one hundred to one thousand dollars, you know.

148
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 4: And by the way, Katie, that's a lot of money.

149
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 3: Talk about a hundred dollars a thousand dollars at the bar.

150
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, let me put this in perspective, said,

151
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 2: what's happened the other night when Chris Brown was in Atlanta?

152
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 2: They spent two hundred thousand dollars in Magic City.

153
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 7: So my little five hundred to a thousand that corner

154
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 7: is like one hundred dollars man space, because I have.

155
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 5: When people say those numbers and I'm like, I don't

156
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 5: believe it.

157
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: I swear to God, I mean godred thousand, God a

158
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 2: hundred went to Chris, right.

159
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 4: I've seen people bore one hundred thousand singles.

160
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean one hundred went to Chris without a doubt.

161
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 7: And magic in magic they go when you when you

162
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 7: order the money, they bring a Magic City bag backas

163
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 7: for you backpack. So the backpack had a hundred in it.

164
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 7: Jada Waiter, y'all know, Ja, she got about a dog right.

165
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 7: I think maybe more p from QC. I think he

166
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 7: ordered forty right then, and that you know, that's that's

167
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,119
Speaker 7: one sixty right there. You know what I'm saying.

168
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: Chris by himself had one hundred, That's what I'm saying.

169
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,559
Speaker 7: So if you start splitting it up, I think Booo

170
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 7: probably got ten and fifteen to twenty.

171
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 2: You were two hundred fast.

172
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 6: So when you was in the back of the day

173
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 6: with BMF, how much did you see them spend that.

174
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 7: One on my album, I have a conversation with Meech

175
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 7: and he says he spent six hundred thousand dollars one night.

176
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 4: That's insanity, that's crazy.

177
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 5: What's the most you spent with Janet? What did you spend?

178
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 7: I mean I had a I had a limit, like

179
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 7: when everybody heard me say I spend ten thousand, that

180
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 7: was my limit. So once I got to that ten,

181
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 7: I wasn't trying. But by the way, I'm not in

182
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 7: there trying to compete. I always felt like, you know,

183
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 7: at one point in time when BMF came well, when

184
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 7: BMF grew, because I've been in the club with meet

185
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 7: for a long time before BMF was a crew like that,

186
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 7: and we used to be at the Gentlemen's Club back

187
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 7: and when you watched the episode where Magic supposedly was

188
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 7: burnt down or whatever, and everybody went to the Gentlemen's Club,

189
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 7: that's back in the period of time when I actually

190
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 7: met Meech, and Meech didn't have the crew, the crew

191
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 7: of people with him, and we was in the Gentleman's

192
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 7: Club and then the Gentlemen's Club. It wasn't about it

193
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 7: wasn't it was like what he saying, We wasn't really

194
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 7: throwing the money. We was just like giving the girls

195
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 7: the money, right. And that's that's where I that's where

196
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 7: the whole confusion about who started throwing the money came from,

197
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 7: because I start I started doing this in Money and

198
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 7: the Thing video, And I know people want to.

199
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: Say they did it and did it.

200
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 7: Will you find a video that came out before Money

201
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 7: and any thing where you see rappers throwing money like this, right?

202
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 7: And that I never had a like, it wasn't about

203
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 7: me trying to challenge nobody. It got it got to

204
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 7: be like when Meaching them crew came and it was like,

205
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 7: oh damn, they throwing more money, we gotta throw It

206
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 7: became like a money wore.

207
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 2: I was never I was never part of that.

208
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 6: I was thinking about you too, man, watching the documentary,

209
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 6: because especially thinking about everything that's going on in Atlanta. Now,

210
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 6: did you purpose because you was outside, you was outside

211
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 6: connected with everybody? Did you purposely stay away from rappers

212
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 6: that were too in the street?

213
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 2: Nah, I just I'm not. I'm not a street guy

214
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 2: like that. I mean what I mean, I'm.

215
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 7: Like, I'm a real hip hop person, right, a purist basically, right,

216
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 7: And I don't believe that you should be rapping about

217
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 7: shit that you don't actually do.

218
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: Right, I've been that guy. Right.

219
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 7: If you ain't in the jury and you ain't do it,

220
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 7: don't talk about it. If you ain't flying, you don't

221
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 7: be getting, then don't be making raps about it.

222
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: Right. And I ain't never had no reason to talk

223
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: about me selling no dope.

224
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 7: That ain't That just ain't been my life, right, I

225
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 7: ain't come up like that.

226
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 5: What about signing an artist that.

227
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 2: I have signed artists like that. I mean, Brat smoke

228
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: more weed than Damnar Snoop Dog.

229
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 7: But you know what I mean, it wasn't like it

230
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 7: wasn't from a drug dealer perspective.

231
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: It's from an actual stoner.

232
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 7: Perspective, right, I just think the perspective of how we

233
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 7: I never was trying to sell, like I said, selling

234
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 7: selling drugs.

235
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: But I mean, you know all the artists I think

236
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 2: Damn It talked about.

237
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 7: I mean that franchise boys, you know what I mean,

238
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 7: White Tea is about dope boys, like all of that.

239
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 7: All the music, I just think it's it's also camouflaged

240
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 7: in beats that make you want to dance where you're

241
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 7: not paying attention.

242
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 5: To it.

243
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 2: It's not this dark, I'm gonna kill you type of music.

244
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 5: That was the other thing about Magic City too. Why

245
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 5: are script clubs?

246
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 6: Why are you able to break records in script clubs

247
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 6: but not liking the regular club. And the regular club

248
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 6: you got to play the records that keep the party going.

249
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 6: But in the script club you can try new shit.

250
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 7: Why is it Because in any lounge setting, music is

251
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 7: just played right. It's just like almost like getting on

252
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 7: the elevator. When you get on the elevator, you don't

253
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 7: care what the music is. They play all kind of

254
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 7: music in the elevation. Especially when you go like the Vegas,

255
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 7: you hear all kinds of stuff and you're like, you

256
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 7: might listen, you might not.

257
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 2: You're having a conversation. It's the same way. If it's

258
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 2: it's ultimately it's for DJ to pay attention.

259
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 7: If he play a record and y'all over there talking

260
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 7: and then all some somebody start moving, you can see

261
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 7: at that point this was not forced, right, And I

262
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 7: feel like that's the most organic thing that we still

263
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 7: have left in the music business. It's like, organically, I

264
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 7: didn't pay you to listen to my song, or ain't

265
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 7: nobody come over there and over promote you to listen

266
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 7: to my song.

267
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 2: You just heard it, and you like, damn, who is that?

268
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 2: Who is that?

269
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 7: That's like cuevos, you know, you know you could see

270
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 7: the emotional people trying to figure out what it is,

271
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 7: or you see somebody in is shazam the song.

272
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 2: This is actual real time at.

273
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 3: One time with women band from mister Club. Thought I

274
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 3: never remember because I know they would be charged now.

275
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 7: It was one It was a period of time where

276
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 7: none dancing females looked down on dances and the Gentleman's

277
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 7: Club was a gentleman's club.

278
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 2: It wasn't no women in the Gentleman's Club. That's what

279
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 2: it was called.

280
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 7: And that's how we That was our spot, right. But

281
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 7: then these ladies start figuring out, these guys are going

282
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 7: to having fun, they eating, and they not calling us,

283
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 7: They're not coming home.

284
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: We want them to come home. What the hell is

285
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: going on in this club? And then once, like I said,

286
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 2: even like me with Janet, she wanted to go so bad,

287
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 2: and I'm like, I'm just in there having fun, kicking

288
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: it with my guys, eating blah blah blah. And it

289
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: was like multiple times where I was like.

290
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 7: I'm not going, not going, And then when we got

291
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 7: to take her in that, she's like, oh, oh, I

292
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 7: thought y'all was in here. I'm like, I don't know

293
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,959
Speaker 7: what y'all thought we was in here doing, but they

294
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 7: they thought it was something else prior to them going,

295
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 7: and enough of them started going and they start realizing, like, girl,

296
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 7: they don't be doing nothing in there.

297
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 2: They ain't having a good time.

298
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 7: If you are able to just party and not pay

299
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 7: attention to the girls being nicked, then you should be

300
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 7: able to have a good time with your man or

301
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 7: your friend or whoever that's in there. So I think

302
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 7: that started right that that situation started, and then guys

303
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 7: start realizing like they didn't have to lie to their

304
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 7: girls either, because ain't nobody having sex in Magic City,

305
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 7: you know what I mean.

306
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: They got other clubs where that might.

307
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 7: Be going on, but Magic City is a full on show, right,

308
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 7: It's no way for you to be in there, you

309
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 7: know what I mean, doing that in that club and people.

310
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: Not see you with nothing. So that's not what happened.

311
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 2: That's not what's happening in that club.

312
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 6: The other thing about Magic City, or just watching the

313
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 6: docu Atlanta used to pride itself on having a unique sound. Yeah,

314
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 6: Now a lot of folks say Atlanta music just kind

315
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 6: of like blends into the mainscream. Do you feel like

316
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 6: the city has lost its identity or it's just a

317
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 6: natural evolution.

318
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 5: No.

319
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 7: I was trying to figure out how we how we

320
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 7: talk about this because I don't want people to get

321
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 7: this misconscrewed about me saying, because I'm not saying anything

322
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 7: about what's going on with Thug, but what's happening with

323
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 7: Doug is almost making people believe that that's just that's

324
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 7: all of Atlanta.

325
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: Right.

326
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 7: Meanwhile, Atlanta has a sub culture of these female rappers

327
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 7: right now with Pluto, Yk Bankro Niah, Banna Bee, and

328
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 7: they have a real thing going. They have a real

329
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 7: motion going, and they have a real movement going that

330
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 7: is being ignored. Like right when they said, I saw

331
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 7: people saying, it's no song of the summer.

332
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: When Whammy.

333
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 7: In Atlanta, it was the song of the summer, you

334
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 7: know what I mean, That's that's the song of the summer.

335
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 7: But for some reason, and it's the first time that's

336
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 7: ever happened to me in Atlanta. So I'm saying, I'm

337
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 7: trying to figure out why. But it's the first time

338
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 7: that anybody else that's in the pressed. They're stealing all

339
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 7: of the energy away from all of the artists that's

340
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 7: out there, like we got Belly, Gang Cush, we got Swabe,

341
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 7: we got all these new artists that's hot, even like

342
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 7: Jed Jig got a hot.

343
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: New record with Sierra Earth Gang.

344
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 7: No no, no, it's not record. It's it's not the

345
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 7: label fault.

346
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 2: It's actually it's actually the media that all of the

347
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 2: new artists claim that they don't want to deal with

348
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 2: by saying they don't want gatekeepers, the media is acting

349
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 2: like gatekeepers and all they're talking about all these little podcasts.

350
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 7: Guys, all they talking about this thug. If you want

351
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 7: to talk about that and that's what you got going,

352
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 7: then cool. But don't say this is Atlanta Atlanta fell off.

353
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 7: And you ain't mentioning these girls, you know what I mean.

354
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 7: And you ain't mentioning Belly, and you ain't mentioning Jed

355
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 7: new album, and you ain't talk like because that's that

356
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 7: now you now you're deterring the energy that we out

357
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 7: here putting out and making it seem like this is

358
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 7: the only thing that's happening in Atlanta, and Atlanta's never

359
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 7: been like that.

360
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 5: That's a great conversation.

361
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 6: You open it up because I'm sitting there thinking like

362
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 6: back in the day, we had artists who had big records,

363
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 6: and you maybe didn't know the artists yet, but at

364
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 6: some point those dots connected, like you know, white teams,

365
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 6: franchise by all of that stuff, but then.

366
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 5: Eventually you knew who the group was.

367
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's the disconnect, like you might hear

368
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 6: the record but not know who the artist is connected.

369
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I gotta they gotta work harder.

370
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 7: But at the same time, it's like I said, it's

371
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 7: still mainstream media is promoting this as ra at Atlanta,

372
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 7: Like that's not that's not that's not where I live

373
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 7: at you know what I mean. And like I said,

374
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 7: these girls, I'm just looking at these girls and I

375
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 7: managed bank Ronina and and just me coming into helping

376
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 7: her with her career. What attracted me to it is

377
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 7: that they they doing this in a hip hop way.

378
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 7: They're using TikTok and whatever things means that they got

379
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 7: to get what they want and actually really creating a

380
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 7: thing in the hip hop and the only thing that's

381
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 7: missing is mainstream media paying attention to.

382
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 6: I think I think that takes uh. That takes sometimes

383
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 6: people to run the circuit. Like everybody talks about the

384
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 6: clips right and they're like, yo, the clips had it's

385
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 6: one of the most genius rollouts. I'm like, that wasn't

386
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 6: a genius rollout. It was just a rollout. That's what

387
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 6: the artists used to do. So I think sometimes it

388
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 6: takes somebody like you to say, naw, we're.

389
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 5: Going on the circus.

390
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 3: But now it was the thing even with the Franchise Boys, right,

391
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 3: you took the Franchise Boys out on the road. Right,

392
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 3: you went from Mark de markets city to city, you

393
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 3: spoke to DJ to DJ until it connected.

394
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 5: So somebody got to do that with a night and

395
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 5: it got to be you because you just more artists.

396
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 3: But I get you say with Ji DJ like he

397
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 3: has to get out there and people like they know

398
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 3: his music, but do.

399
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 4: They know his face as much? Same thing with Pluto.

400
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 3: I love the fact that Pluto is out, she's outing

401
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 3: about she came on the Breakfast Club, she's doing podcasts,

402
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 3: she's starting to see her face outside of her music.

403
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 3: But we don't see that a lot anymore. And with

404
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 3: the thing I was going to ask you, but what's

405
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 3: going on with Atlanta. I've never seen Atlanta in a

406
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 3: place where it seems like it's been so much against

407
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 3: each other because Atlanta is usually the place where everybody.

408
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 4: Fucks with each other. Everybody sees each other at the club,

409
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 4: everybody sees each other.

410
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 3: Magic City, you see everybody together, whether they on good

411
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 3: terms or not there together. And I've never seen a

412
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 3: land in a place where it seems like they're not connected.

413
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying.

414
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 7: If we put the I mean, you're right both sides,

415
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 7: but if we put the eyes on these girls, they're

416
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 7: demonstrating what you're talking about.

417
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 2: They making records of each other, They making songs.

418
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 7: They putting out records every week, and it's one record

419
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,359

00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 7: YK and Pluto kind of split, but they still out

423
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 7: here moving in a motion that shows the love that

424
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 7: what you're talking.

425
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 2: About Atlanta was prior.

426
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 7: And that's really what I wanted to do with my

Speaker 7: to do. It's like, because that is how I That's

432
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,200

Speaker 6: people to come come to you.

00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,640

Speaker 4: They did.

449
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: They were out on the street and performed in the

450
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 3: middle of Brooklyn at a block party.

451
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 5: To do that.

452
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 4: They went to the car show, they went to concerts, they.

453
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 3: Did radio, they did you podcast, they did everything they

454
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 3: was to get those numbers, and it showed.

455
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 5: I told it.

456
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 6: I saw these memes going around about the VMA's this

457
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 6: past weekend this week and everybody was like, yo, this

458
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 6: is like this means saying, that's how I feel watching

459
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 6: the VMA's. You know less and less people every year,

460
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 6: and that's not because you getting older. It's because a

461
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 6: lot of these people just ain't running the circuit.

462
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 5: Well, like everybody you just name. The only person I

463
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 5: know faces Pluto.

464
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, but the VMA's I went, and I

465
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 7: was gonna tweet while I was there, but I was like,

466
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 7: I'm not going to because I might get in trouble.

467
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 2: I'm like turning something else.

468
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 7: But black culture is what is driving the internet when

469
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 7: it comes to music, right. It ain't enough black culture

470
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 7: at the VMA's for where the culture is from this

471
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 7: interviewing space, right, And I think that's a that's a

472
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 7: disconnect that you see at the VMA's and so so

473
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 7: a lot of the artists don't know if they should

474
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 7: go because they don't know, you know what I mean,

475
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 7: because it's being frontloaded with like people like Paris Hilton

476
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 7: and I mean, you know, they put Lotto in an

477
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 7: what's the last I spice on there? But that's what

478
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 7: I'm saying. It's still like it's not it's like, let's

479
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 7: forget about the under the down low people that's really

480
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 7: coming up. I thought Busters should have got what he got,

481
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 7: but we should have saw somebody new, you.

482
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,239
Speaker 4: Know what I mean.

483
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 2: Jid, Sierra, you know what I mean. They could have

484
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 2: easily performed though. I just don't think that. I just

485
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 2: don't think people are actually from the mainstream perspective of

486
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: paying attention to this ground swell of music that's happening.

487
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 6: And then what do you do because I know for

488
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 6: a fact that first time I heard your album, I'm like, Yo, this.

489
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 5: Skate record goals with Sierra and Earth Game.

490
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 6: When when you're a JID and you're telling the label

491
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 6: this is the record, but the label saying, nah, let's

492
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 6: go with something else. But then the label ain't servicing

493
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 6: nothing to radio.

494
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, I mean when you got to you know,

495
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 7: like like NB nos it you saying it.

496
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 2: You gotta bring these labels to what's going on. That

497
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 2: ain't never.

498
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 7: Been a nun practice. Right when we had never scared.

499
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 7: It was Super Bowl weekend in Atlanta. I threw everybody

500
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 7: to Atlanta, and my mindset was when everybody leave, everybody

501
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 7: gonna leave here saying Bone Crushes the biggest record they

502
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 7: heard in Atlanta. People left Atlanta and they were saying

503
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 7: that bone Crushing record is the big When everybody got

504
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 7: back to New York, that was what was happening in

505
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 7: their office.

506
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: Can you send me this bone crushing record? What's up

507
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,479
Speaker 2: with that bone crush artist? Blah blah blah. You've always

508
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 2: been that's always been part of the practice. I don't

509
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 2: know why people think that these things change.

510
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 7: You have to None of these people know, you know

511
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 7: what I mean, Like nobody skates, right, nobody, these older

512
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 7: people us in these labels, they're not skating. So how

513
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 7: do they know that it's a skating thing.

514
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 2: Going on in Atlanta? Three three days out of the week.

515
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:44,479
Speaker 2: What night is popping?

516
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 6: What?

517
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 2: They're not even trying to go? They just thinking about music.

518
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 2: But we are actually selling culture inside our records and

519
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 2: we're actually doing what we talked.

520
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 7: It was like selling drugs if you talk about the

521
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 7: drug wrappers. That's why so many of them going to jail,

522
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 7: because it's actually real life.

523
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 5: What skating rink was? It?

524
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 6: Cas skating is that is that would that be the

525
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 6: equivalent of Magic City for the skating rinks in Atlanta.

526
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 7: On the west side, But it's a skating rink on

527
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 7: every side. Like where I'm from, we had Sparkles and

528
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 7: we had and we got skate Town. But I think,

529
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 7: like when we shot the video for Jig, is that

530
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 7: Golden Glide that's on the east side. So all of

531
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 7: like each side of Atlanta they got skating rings.

532
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 5: Did they break records?

533
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: And yeah, I think I want to say that the

534
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 2: first time I ever heard the Jaquess hit that he

535
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 2: had was at the skateing ring and it was on

536
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 2: like a because they do you know. The crazy part

537
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: about it is like R and B records, they do

538
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: slow skate or they do couple skate, and they don't

539
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 2: play no ghetto music when they do that. They actually

540
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 2: play whatever the ballad is. Right.

541
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 7: So I'm sure, like right now the Chris Brown record

542
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 7: probably going crazyness came round.

543
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 2: I haven't been in the last you know, the last.

544
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 7: Couple of months, but I'm sure it goes crazy when

545
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 7: they do the couple skate and that definitely breaks music.

546
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 7: You skate, No know what I'm saying I'm just saying

547
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 7: these are time I hear records.

548
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 5: You didn't produce.

549
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 3: I want to ask you know, we had Coach k

550
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 3: up here about a week ago. He was saying that

551
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 3: the industry is missing a and.

552
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 4: Rs right, and we talk about it a lot.

553
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,719
Speaker 3: Do you still think that we need somebody to develop

554
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 3: these artists, to help develop these artists.

555
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 7: But the an rs need somebody to develop them, you

556
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 7: know what I mean?

557
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: Like you know that that's that's the truth.

558
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 7: Because the problem is is that the an ars is

559
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 7: acting more like babysitters down They scared to tell the

560
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 7: artists like that shit ain't that ain't hot, And because

561
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 7: they know if they tell them, the artists might smack

562
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 7: shit at them all, or they might just the artists

563
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 7: might call a label and be like, y'all don't like him, right.

564
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 2: So people trying to be friends with people.

565
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 7: As opposed to like giving them creative criticism, and it's

566
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 7: not it's not helping the music, you know what I mean?

567
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 7: I I it's crazy as I was working with so

568
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 7: many artists during this album, and the artists coming to

569
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 7: school and they're like, JD, don't don't just not produce me,

570
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 7: let me make me sound the best.

571
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: So it's artists out here that want creative criticism.

572
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 7: I just think it's from the They gotta people gotta

573
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 7: get back to like making sure that that's their job.

574
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 7: And when you see a person, they understand that that's

575
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 7: what they're supposed to get from you.

576
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 3: Every time, every time I see you and I talk

577
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 3: to you, I always ask you the same thing. I

578
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 3: feel like you're one of those hip hop people that

579
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 3: are underrated, right, that people forget about what you've done

580
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 3: and the lineage you put out there and the people

581
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 3: that you brought out.

582
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 4: Do you always feel that way? And when do we?

583
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 3: When does JD tell his own story in a movie

584
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 3: form where you talk about the beginning, the artist you popped,

585
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 3: the A and r's you, you birth, the producive, you birth,

586
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 3: the sound you brought out? When does that happen? Because

587
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 3: people don't necessarily forget even to this day.

588
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'm like, dam Jady did that one?

589
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean I don't know, man, you know

590
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 2: I can't.

591
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 7: I was thinking about this on the way up here today.

592
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 7: I was like, I'm gonna see what Charlamagne I get today.

593
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 7: I'm gonna get the.

594
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 2: Cool Charlamagne I'm gonna get there, you know what I mean.

595
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 7: With Charlaman, I'm gonna get But last time I was here,

596
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 7: I told y'all, y'all, ain't gonna have nobody come up

597
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 7: here that would have a number one record in the

598
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 7: same time that I did with the Money Long Record.

599
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,479
Speaker 7: Right this time, I'm here and Billboard basically finally called me,

600
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 7: I mean named me the number one producer of the

601
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 7: twenty first century of hip hoppin' on be So I

602
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,719
Speaker 7: feel like the tide is changing, you know what I mean.

603
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 7: It's like I saw a bust To say something at

604
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 7: his speech the other day, like it's timing. Man, when

605
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 7: God wants you to get your flowers, he gonna give

606
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 7: them to you, you don't rush it.

607
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 2: So I've just been sitting back waiting.

608
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,239
Speaker 7: I feel like everything that you're saying, it's gonna eventually come.

609
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 7: Because at the end of the day, when you look

610
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 7: at that list based on who I started with, ain't

611
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 7: none of them niggas even on the list, you know

612
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 7: what I mean, Like this a whole new list of

613
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 7: people that I'm going against based on who the guys

614
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 7: I came out with.

615
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 2: So as long as I just keep doing what I'm doing.

616
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: I'm not.

617
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 7: I mean, I think that is one of my most

618
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 7: proud accomplishments though, to make that list, because I feel

619
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 7: like for the first time people have to really like

620
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 7: go and see why. And when you go see why,

621
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 7: first of all, the list that is not comprived of

622
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 7: your heart and your stomach. It's comprived of who has

623
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 7: the most number ones in the last twenty first century.

624
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 7: Them is facts, Like that's what I was telling you

625
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 7: last time we was up here. When you start dealing

626
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 7: with the stats, you know, it's a different conversation. And

627
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 7: I feel like if people start having to have that conversation,

628
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 7: then you know, the respect has to change at that point.

629
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 7: I mean, I've seen people like completely mad about Beyonce

630
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 7: being at number five on that list, But Beyonce actually

631
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 7: produces these records.

632
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 2: She's telling the other people in.

633
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 7: The room, like just what I want do a drop

634
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 7: right here? Just you know what I mean, that's production,

635
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 7: So you know what I mean. I mean, I've never

636
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 7: been but I'm sure.

637
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 4: I'm sure.

638
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 3: But even with the versus conversation. I remember the versus

639
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 3: conversation and they played you, so I don't want to

640
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 3: say he's so little. But they made it seem like

641
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 3: at the time, puff was gonna wax you, right, and

642
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,160
Speaker 3: you start thinking about the amount of records you produced

643
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 3: and the hits that you did, the records that you

644
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 3: writ that you wrote, that's why.

645
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 4: You were so like, let's do this, let's let's do this.

646
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure it will never happen, but is

647
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 3: that the reason why you was like I wanted you

648
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 3: wanted to do it so bad.

649
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 5: It was gonna happen.

650
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I did.

651
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 7: I mean, and I want to do it here in

652
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 7: New York because I wanted, you know what I mean.

653
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 7: I feel like, I mean, I performed at the Tunnel.

654
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 7: I done been in, I done been in the ship

655
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 7: storm of hip hop.

656
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: So it ain't none of that. Don't none of that

657
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: scare me, right at the end of the day.

658
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 7: And I feel like that's the only way at that

659
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 7: time that people were gonna realize, like, oh, this nigga's crazy, right,

660
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 7: because if you I can't keep saying it, you know

661
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 7: what I'm saying, it is what it is is at

662
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 7: this point if you ain't you know, I saw somebody say, oh,

663
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 7: yesterday when I said something about the female rappers, like

664
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 7: I'm saying right now, and somebody come in and say, oh,

665
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 7: now you want to say something good about female rappers,

666
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 7: I'm like, damn, did I not get you out of brack?

667
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 7: I have the ability to talk about female rappers more

668
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 7: than anybody because I'm the one that took the chance

669
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 7: to even try to see if it were right. But

670
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 7: people don't want to. They still want to fight it.

671
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 2: Like, so I'm like, whatever it is, what what's the motivation?

672
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 6: One of the only things I think about this list

673
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 6: when you look at this Billboard list.

674
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 4: The list name the top five, so people, but.

675
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 6: I'm only gonna name top two, but you number one.

676
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 6: And then when he I guess you was that's your protege, Michael,

677
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 6: it's my part?

678
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, how did that make you feel?

679
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 2: I mean amazing?

680
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 7: Because you know when you think about like what people

681
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 7: say about Mike, Michael Jordan and basketball, I always use this.

682
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 7: They always talk about like you can only be the

683
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 7: best on list if you can make other people.

684
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 2: Better, right in any business, right, I think that's the thing.

685
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 7: Like, so, I mean half of them songs that put

686
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 7: Brian in there is the same songs that got me

687
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 7: up there.

688
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 2: So it's like we make each other better.

689
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 7: So I mean, that's that's the focus that we have

690
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 7: when we work and the records that we do together

691
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 7: is just that's the focus. We have a goal amongst

692
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 7: us both And if he was lower on that list,

693
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 7: I'd be mad because I'm like, it ain't no way possible,

694
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 7: you know what I mean.

695
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 2: He's been right there with me every step of the way.

696
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 6: And I think too, when I think about Mariah Carey getting,

697
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 6: you know, the accolade she got the other night at

698
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 6: the VMA, I don't know if that happens without you.

699
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 6: And what I mean by that is Mariah had a

700
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 6: fantastic career, but that album was like a comeback album

701
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 6: that kind of solidified her forever.

702
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 7: I was talking to her about this yesterday and I

703
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 7: was saying, like, it would have happened without me, but Mariah, listen,

704
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 7: Mariah is such a New York hip hop person that

705
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 7: she wants to gravitate towards the shit right as opposed

706
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 7: to like promoting the Boys the Men record, which was

707
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 7: no song her first song of the decade, right, she

708
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 7: ain't even perform that song the other night, Like you

709
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 7: know what I'm saying, Like she.

710
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: Got records that's bigger than the records I did.

711
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 5: That.

712
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: She just like, yeah, you know, we gonna redly do

713
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 2: this tonight. This is what we're gonna do.

714
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 7: I listen. I love it because I'm a part of it.

715
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 7: But don't get it twisted. These songs is you know

716
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 7: what I mean? She got records that she could do.

717
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 7: That's like hero, you know what I mean, these songs

718
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 7: that's huge. That made her Mariah has sold thirty million

719
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 7: records before I even worked with her, you know what I'm.

720
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 6: Saying, Like that charm Bracelet and then that was it

721
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 6: was that movie called I don't even remember that.

722
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 5: It was a bad It was dark.

723
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, but one one black eye can't kill you.

724
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 5: No, that's true.

725
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 6: But then you came back to the mess vision of

726
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 6: me me, and that's that's a nuclear bomb.

727
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 5: I mean that's not a normal album, you know.

728
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just I always look at that like, I'm really,

729
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 2: I can't take credit for Mariah. She's She's who she is,

730
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 2: and she was who she was before.

731
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 7: I you know, I'm just happy that she let me

732
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 7: be a part of the ride.

733
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 5: I think that puts more pressure on you though.

734
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 6: And what I mean by that is when you're tasked

735
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 6: with going in there with the iconic person already and

736
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 6: creating something that gets them, you know, back scene the

737
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 6: way that they were seeing before that, you know, last flop,

738
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 6: that says a lot that you was able to accomplish.

739
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 7: That then to put pressure on you, I would think

740
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 7: so back then, nah, because I don't think about it

741
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 7: like you know, like the thing about it, this is

742
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 7: when I go in to studio people I don't be like,

743
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 7: I don't get caught up on what's happening in their life.

744
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 7: And I think that that was what was going on

745
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 7: in her life outside of the studio.

746
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 2: I go in the studio and I'm like, I.

747
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 7: Say this all the time when I when I work

748
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 7: with Aretha Franklin, she made me realize, like, listen, if

749
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 7: you're gonna be in here working and I'm gonna pay

750
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 7: you and we're gonna let you get this credit, you

751
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 7: better say what the fuck you gotta say If I

752
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 7: sound bad, if I don't even sound halfway good.

753
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 2: She was like, tell me to do it again.

754
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 7: And I'm like, I can't tell Aretha Franklin, nothing like

755
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 7: this will Rita Franklin. But the way she was talking

756
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 7: to me was like, I flew you here to Detroit

757
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 7: to cut my vocals, So what you're gonna do. You're

758
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 7: gonna sit in here and there and watch me? Or

759
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 7: if that's I'm going home, that's what she told me.

760
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 7: She says, literally, I'm going home, that's what you're gonna do.

761
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 7: And that's when I set that for me and I'm like,

762
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 7: you know what, I gotta do this. I just gotta

763
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 7: be brutally honest with artists. And when it came to

764
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 7: mancipation to me me we belong together. We made the

765
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 7: song like listen, Marian, if you don't hit the note

766
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 7: that this at the end of the record, the record

767
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 7: ain't gonna be what people want the record to be.

768
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 7: They want you to that's that's what they want. We

769
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 7: gotta give them what they want. And it was like

770
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 7: nobody else wanted to say this. I had to say it,

771
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 7: and I have to be like, you know, if you

772
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 7: don't like me for saying what is real? Then while

773
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 7: we in the room together, what.

774
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 3: Was one of the artists that didn't like you being

775
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 3: brutal Lyannes That was like, nah, it's not for me, nobody.

776
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 2: I don't think nobody.

777
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 7: I mean, I think everybody want they don't want to

778
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 7: address it, but when it's right, they're like, oh, okay,

779
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 7: you know.

780

Speaker 2: didn't like. Oh, I think they like me.

782
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 3: Usher didn't seem like you wrestled with him every time.

783
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 3: You're understand that's what balance.

784
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: But I'm saying Usher didn't like you make me want

785
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 2: to And you have to sit there and be like, man,

786
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 2: why what do you what are you listening to that

787
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 2: make you not like this song?

788
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 3: So what did you say that Mariah Carrey when she

789
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 3: didn't do that the last note at the end, right,

790
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 3: the note that everybody tries to sing, did you call

791
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 3: her back like, hey, I need you to do the

792
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 3: Like what's crazy is we had six hours to do.

793
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 2: We belong together.

794
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 7: She came to Atlanta, We did everything in the song

795
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 7: except for that note. Right the song was finished, and

796
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 7: I kept saying, Mariah, when you do the you know,

797
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 7: because she also was gonna sing her vocals when she

798
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 7: came back, and I just kept saying, when you sing

799
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 7: the vocals, make sure you end the song with this note.

800
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 7: And it wasn't there, It wasn't in there, and it

801
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 7: was just like you had to say it or not.

802
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,359
Speaker 7: I had to feel like I felt like I had

803
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 7: to keep saying it before she left me because I

804
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 7: wasn't gonna be there with her. And sometimes you know,

805
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 7: artists want to be cool and like Mariah is like

806
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 7: a singer that don't that.

807
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: Can really sing, but she's a rapper.

808
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 7: She want to be like she want to do rapper shit,

809
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 7: so she don't actually be wanting to like show you

810
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 7: how well she can sing no more. And I'm like, no,

811
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 7: show these niggas you could really fucking sing. They can't,

812
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 7: by the way, So you have to do that. You

813
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 7: have to tell her because she'll get she's a rapper.

814
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 7: I told this, I told her this other.

815
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 4: How many times? You know how many times did she

816
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 4: have to do that? Last note her?

817
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 7: I don't think she had to do that. I mean,

818
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 7: it don't take her long when she's when she's in

819
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 7: that mode.

820
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 2: But yeah, they don't take one time.

821
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 7: It don't take the Mariah's she's she's flawless when she

822
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 7: want to be. But like I said, she's so New York.

823
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 7: I'm telling you, like the first time I went to

824
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 7: work when Mariah I came here.

825
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 2: I ain't know what to expect.

826
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 7: She walked in the studio and she laid the CD

827
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,400
Speaker 7: on the desk and it was the Wu Tang Cream

828
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 7: and she was like, I want you to sample this.

00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 7: This was just like a story. You bring some niggas

873
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,319
Speaker 7: over to the house and this is what happened. And

874
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 7: I'm in the house like this, like, I'm just trying

875
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,879
Speaker 7: to make a record, man, what the fuck is going on.

876
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 5: Where you're at? Yeah?

877
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 2: I called her.

878
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 7: She's like, we just getting some frize and I'm like, what,

879
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 7: why why? And she was saying that MARIAJH. Just like

880
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 7: at that period of time, Mariah was, you know, this

881
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 7: was a different type of success life at this point. Yeah,

882
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 7: she wasn't the artist that could go outside and go

883
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 7: to McDonald's or she wasn't even doing that. Like, she

884
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 7: was sheltered in the house and she just wanted to

885
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 7: get out, and Brat was her her person that was

886
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 7: ready to go escape and do it.

887
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 6: So what did that level of freedom you provided her?

888
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 6: That's what I'm called the emancipatient.

889
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, A MEI.

890
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 2: Nah, just I just think I think I make Mariah comfortable, right,

891
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 2: and I don't. I don't.

892
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 7: I don't fake with her about the music that we

893
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,919
Speaker 7: should make. And I think that's what makes her feel free,

894
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 7: you know, free because I'm telling her, I'm telling anybody,

895
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 7: if you sing, make singing records man, like, and like,

896
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 7: I get it. You want to rap, And I'm a

897
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 7: rapper at heart, but I learned how to make music,

898
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 7: And I learned through the success that I've had that

899
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 7: these people want these records to sound like the records

900
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 7: that they know.

901
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 2: The audience don't change, right, So I just have to

902
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 2: keep beating that in people's minds and letting them know, like, listen,

903
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 2: you might want to change your shit up, but the

904
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 2: person that's listening, they want the new Mariah record to

905
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 2: sound like the Mariah record that they heard before. And

906
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 2: that's always a hard fight with artists.

907
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 5: Did you ever take the Magic City?

908
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, no, no, no, she won't won't. She probably

909
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,919
Speaker 2: won't go to that. That ain't her That ain't her bag.

910
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 3: Now back to Usher, you said she didn't like make

911
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 3: me want to? Yeah, why not?

912
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 4: Was the problem with that?

913
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:15,359
Speaker 2: I don't know?

914
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 4: And how'd you get him? How did you force him

915
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 4: to finally do it?

916
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 7: Well, I mean I have to force him, but he

917
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,879
Speaker 7: also just let me know it wasn't like, that wasn't

918
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:23,959
Speaker 7: what he felt.

919
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 2: He should be coming with.

920
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,959
Speaker 7: At this point in time, Usher was still not sure

921
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 7: where his career was gonna go. So he's still cut

922
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 7: the song, luckily, but if we was in that space

923
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 7: right now, he's not gonna cut the song right now.

924
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 7: He ain't gonna be like, I don't fuck with that.

925
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 4: Song right now. He don't care if he don't like it.

926
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 2: No, it's not even gonna get cut even now. Right now,

927
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: I would trust you to not he's gonna be like

928
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: that's right now. I'd be like, yo, Usher, please cut

00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 2: this song. Us should turn his phone off.

930
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 6: Like, when you look at this new generation of Atlanta rappers,

931
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 6: do you feel they understand the history of the city

932
00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:58,799

934
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 2: Well? I think they do, but I don't think they respected.

935
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 7: From a level of why how high you should be

936
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 7: holding it right because a lot of people in Atlanta

937
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:17,439
Speaker 7: still don't understand the how we even got to where

938
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 7: we are, right. I did an interview the other day

939
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 7: like about no First of the Month or something like

940
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 7: that with big facts right and Bank was saying, you know,

941
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 7: JD niggas in Atlanta used to think you wanted to

942
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 7: be from New York.

943
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 2: And it's funny because it wasn't that I wanted to

944
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 2: be from New York.

945
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 7: It's just this is where hip hop lives, and this

946
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 7: is where hip hop was at and it wasn't hip

947
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,720
Speaker 7: hop nor no hip hop in Atlanta.

948
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 2: Right.

949
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 7: It wasn't no place in Atlanta that even gave me

950
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 7: what I felt I was getting when I came to

951
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 7: the city and I wasn't getting anything.

952
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 2: I was treated like I wasn't even supposed to be here.

953
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 7: But still I was looking at people doing what I

954
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 7: wanted to do, right, So I'm like, Yo, we gotta

955
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 7: get We got to figure out how to get this going.

956
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 7: So he was telling me that when I did Money

957
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 7: and a Thing, that it felt like I wanted to

958
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,280
Speaker 7: be from New York as opposed I also, I wanted

959
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 7: to be the first nigga from Atlanta to make a

960
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 7: record with a nigga from Brooklyn that everybody kept claiming

961
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 7: was gonna be who he came who he became to be.

962
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,359
Speaker 2: And I don't think people.

963
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 7: Understand that move as much as they want to try

964
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:30,919
Speaker 7: to make it seem like I want to be from

965
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:31,439
Speaker 7: New York.

966
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 2: I was trying to be the.

967
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 7: First person to push us forward and make sure that

968
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 7: Atlanta exists the way it does in hip hop?

969
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 4: Did you have to pay hold for that record? How

970
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 4: did that record come about? Money? In a day?

971
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:44,239
Speaker 2: I had to?

972
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 7: I mean, it was my idea from the jump, and

973
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 7: he took it and put it on his album once

974
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 7: it started popping. So you know, we just were just

975
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 7: an even swap.

976
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 6: So who when you when you talk, I loved I

977
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 6: loved these Atlanta stories, and I really feel like Atlanta

978
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 6: story still hasn't been told the way it should have.

979
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 6: That's why I'm glad you did the Freak Nick Doc

980
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 6: and y'all got the Magic City Doc. When you think

981
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 6: of Atlanta, who should really get the credit for introducing

982
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 6: the world to Atlanta hip hop.

983
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 7: Outa Outcast was calling so so death trying to get signed,

984
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 7: like I think, I think, you know, one of the

985
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 7: things that that we have to really start doing is

986
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 7: in dealing with me. And that's where it goes, like

987
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 7: people start moving the goal posters that Chris Cross was

988
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 7: the first rap crew from Atlanta to sell over two

989
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 7: three four million records.

990
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 2: Point blank, ain't no if and butts about it, right.

991
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 7: But when we start having a conversation about Chris Cross,

992
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 7: people start trying to make it seem like it's kitty rap, right.

993
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 7: But then when I start saying something about me making

994
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 7: a record, the niggas starts saying, jad o g it's.

995
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 2: A young man game. If it's a young man game.

996
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 7: Then give it to the young man who started the

997
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 7: ship for the city, right. But when you ask for

998
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 7: that credit, niggas try to make it seem like nah nah,

999
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 7: nah nah, it can't be these kids. But that don't

1000
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 7: make sense, right it don't you one minute it's for

1001
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 7: the kids, then the next minute the kids. You don't

1002
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 7: want to get the kids to credit. And I think

1003
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 7: that's the biggest mistake in Atlanta h hip hop is

1004
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:19,760
Speaker 7: that niggas don't give Criss Cross the credit for pushing

1005
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 7: the door open. Like t I definitely says that he

1006
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 7: started rapping because he saw Crisscross and he realized that

1007
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 7: he didn't have to be old, he didn't have to

1008
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 7: be twenty five years old to make a record. He

1009
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 7: saw some little niggas from his hood making music and

1010
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,280
Speaker 7: he was like, I can do it right. Even Killer

1011
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 7: Mike says the same thing. And I feel like, you know,

1012
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 7: you got a couple of people that like these guys

1013
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 7: that say it, But the rest of the city, if

1014
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 7: you start having conversations about it, it's always who who

1015
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 7: started at first. Criscross came out way before Outcasts, you

1016
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 7: know what I'm saying, And they sold eight million records

1017
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 7: the first album.

1018
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 2: You can't just not talk about that.

1019
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 6: What's the biggest differ between being a music mogul in

1020
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 6: the nineties versus being in one now.

1021
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:02,240
Speaker 5: They don't look the same.

1022
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, they don't look the same. And I think that

1023
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 7: the difference now is that it just ain't a bunch,

1024
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 7: That's what it is. That's the ultimate difference. Because we

1025
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 7: all learned from everybody. I learned most of everything that

1026
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 7: I started doing from Russell, you know what I mean,

1027
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 7: just seeing Russell Simmons do what he was doing. Andre

1028
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 7: Horrel rest in peace, just everybody. You know, we had,

1029
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 7: We had books of people that we could look at

1030
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,879
Speaker 7: and read their book and be like, Okay, if I'm

1031
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 7: gonna do it, I want to do it like this.

1032
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 2: If I'm gonna have this company, I'm gonna have it

1033
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 2: like this.

1034
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 7: We don't have that no more. Right, we don't have

1035
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 7: that no more. And I need it, you know what

1036
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 7: I'm saying, Even me, I need it. So it's therefore

1037
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 7: it's like I mean, at least I always used it.

1038
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 7: I might be that person that people look at at

1039
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 7: this point, but I'm saying, for the most part, we

1040
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 7: don't have these guys that's out here that you could

1041
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 7: actually look at and be like, Okay, I want to

1042
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 7: have I want to even like Jay Prince Prince was

1043
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 7: doing what he was doing in Houston. They not doing

1044
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 7: that no more in Houston, right, So the niggas ain't Houston.

1045
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,280
Speaker 7: Only nobody like patting what they're doing off and nobody.

1046
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 7: They can talk about it, but you don't see nobody

1047
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 7: coming out of Houston. It's like the new j Prince.

1048
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 5: That's true, you know.

1049
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 6: I mean it's interesting too it Atlanta because you always

1050
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 6: repeat yourself when you think about all the different sounds

1051
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 6: that have come out of Atlanta now, Like I love

1052
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 6: Metro booming out and the stuff you got on the

1053
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 6: on the Magic City soundtracks sound like that too. Why

1054
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:28,399
Speaker 6: is that era it seemed like coming back?

1055
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 7: Well, I mean mine is because it's connected to the dock, right.

1056
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 7: I think Metrom was onto something that was just like

1057
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 7: they felt like, like I said, I don't know where

1058
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 7: these girls, what mindset these female rappers was in when

1059
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 7: they started, but they started taking these old records and

1060
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 7: remaking new records on top of them. So like all

1061
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 7: the jatoven beats, that's the Pluto song when Wami was

1062
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 7: a zatoven beat right.

1063
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 2: Like I said, the.

1064
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 7: Girl bank Roll Now that I worked with, she got

1065
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 7: a bunch of these records that they they they're taking

1066
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 7: all of these older records and they putting new records

1067
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 7: on this. So I think the feel of it when

1068
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 7: they when you start seeing that, that feels like okay.

1069
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 7: You know, everybody make music, always try to get into

1070
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 7: the tempo and what's gonna go with the next song.

1071
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 7: As a producer, I mean, that's what I do. So

1072
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 7: if you're listening to oh I think they like me

1073
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 7: beat and somebody come on with a new song that

1074
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 7: your your next move is to damn to make a

1075
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 7: record that sound like leaning with it. Rock with is

1076
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 7: just automatic because you can't just come with a song

1077
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 7: that you can't just blow by and be like, I

1078
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 7: ain't paying no attention to that tempo.

1079
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:38,439
Speaker 2: Let's do something else.

1080
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 7: No, that ain't that ain't never been hip hop. So

1081
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 7: I just think that it's just a wave. Like I said,

1082
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 7: these girls they started, and I just feel like you're

1083
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 7: seeing people just follow the wave.

1084
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,479
Speaker 6: It's gonna be address that take me through their record. Yeah,

1085
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 6: with that with that influences.

1086
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, but I'm saying that's why kto Yeah, So I

1087
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 7: mean that's that's what I'm saying. It's like it's it's

1088
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,399
Speaker 7: just it's just they wave and people just they started it.

1089
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 2: You know.

1090
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,360
Speaker 3: Now, we talked about a lot of stuff that you've

1091
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 3: done in your history. What's left that Jamaine wants to

1092
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 3: do that he hasn't done yet?

1093
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 4: Like, because you.

1094
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 3: Didn't did everything, you didn't did docu series, you didn't

1095
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 3: did produce for every decade, what's left that you want

1096
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 3: to do that's like this is the last thing I

1097
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 3: want to do, or this is something I want to do.

1098
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 7: Just continue, man, I think that, Like it's a lot

1099
00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 7: of stuff that I did that I didn't know what

1100
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 7: I was doing, right, So it like go back and

1101
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 7: do it in a way now that I know, Like

1102
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 7: when I came up here and talked about the Rap Game,

1103
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 7: I ain't know what that show was going to be.

1104
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 2: I ain't know a lot of what was going to

1105
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 2: come from that show. I ain't know. I don't know

1106
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 2: what was going to happen.

1107
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,839
Speaker 7: Right now, I know now people know that show would

1108
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 7: be accepted, you know, and received so much better now because.

1109
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 3: People when it wasn't accepted back then, like like I

1110
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,399
Speaker 3: think it would be now, Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

1111
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: It's proven though, Yeah, it's just really just like like

1112
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 3: I said, a lot of the stuff is like I'm

1113
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 3: the first to like step out here and see what's

1114
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 3: going on, and you don't even know what's happening. And

1115
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 3: once it worked, if you come back and do it again,

1116
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,279
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, Okay, now people fucking with this, and

1117
00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 3: they might do it.

1118
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,320
Speaker 2: But that's a lot of the stuff.

1119
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 7: I just you know, I was just like, you know,

1120
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 7: like even like the Division I signed Division, and the

1121
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 7: first album that I did with Division, I jumped out

1122
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 7: here with a song called if I Get Caught, and

1123
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 7: you know, their fan base was a little like that,

1124
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 7: ain't we don't fuck with that?

1125
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:20,359
Speaker 4: Right?

1126
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 7: I was just trying to make records and get them

1127
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 7: guys popular because I felt like they too good to

1128
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 7: be such a box group, and they.

1129
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 2: Also wanted that song, so I'm not gonna just say

1130
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 2: pushed it on them.

1131
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,319
Speaker 7: But at the same time, I learned in that process

1132
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 7: they got a fan base, right, and they make love music,

1133
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 7: and you can't come out with a group that make

1134
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 7: love music. Talking about if I Get Caught cheating that

1135
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 7: just is not gonna it's gonna be a crash. So

1136
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:53,879
Speaker 7: this new project. We put out two new records last week,

1137
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 7: and all I see is people online saying, this is

1138
00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 7: the division we wanted. This is what I'm talking about,

1139
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 7: you know, Joe Budden's so you just learned.

1140
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:02,880
Speaker 2: I just learned. So I don't know.

1141
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 7: I feel like, you know, I just have a look

1142
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 7: at the things that I feel like I'm not I

1143
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 7: didn't know what I was doing totally, and then just

1144
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 7: come back and do it again and try to make

1145
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 7: it right right the way that I feel like it

1146
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 7: should have been the first time.

1147
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 6: What's the hardest personal sacrifice you made for your career life.

1148
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 2: I don't really have no life. I just be making music,

1149
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.

1150
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 7: And I have people that tell me this all the time, like, Jad,

1151
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 7: you know, you don't really you My baby mother's be

1152
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 7: saying it's like, you know, you your life is the music.

1153
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 7: All you do is care about the music. All you

1154
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 7: care about is putting out records. All you care about

1155
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 7: is doing what you're doing every day. And that's the truth,

1156
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 7: it is.

1157
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 2: That's what it is. I don't care about nothing else.

1158
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,240
Speaker 5: You enjoy the money, you don't go on vacation.

1159
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:46,919
Speaker 2: I mean that come along with it, but it ain't.

1160
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 2: That's not a chase for me.

1161
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 7: Like my chase is to be you know, like what

1162
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 7: they said on the Billboard, I get number one, I.

1163
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 2: Feel like I feel like I finally did something by

1164
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,240
Speaker 2: getting number one on that list.

1165
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 3: But that it's never enough because you one more, not

1166
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 3: but now it's like but it's but it's also like fighting.

1167
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 7: It's like boxing, you gotta you gotta can you can

1168
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 7: you stay in that space?

1169
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 5: Right?

1170
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,520
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. It's like watching Floyd and

1171
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 2: Tyson tug while they gonna fight.

1172
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 7: It's like Floyd retired, but he still want to be

1173
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:19,800
Speaker 7: the He wants to be the best.

1174
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. It's like, I'm not saying

1175
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 2: I'm retired. I'm out here.

1176
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,720
Speaker 7: So I just know that, you know, Like I also

1177
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 7: know that it's space in hip hop and R and

1178
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,919
Speaker 7: B that hasn't been touched. What I'm doing, going from

1179
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 7: ninety two and being becoming the number one producer the

1180
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:41,240
Speaker 7: twenty first century in twenty twenty five ain't been seen

1181
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 7: ever ever.

1182
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 2: Right, So if you start doing shit that ain't never

1183
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,120
Speaker 2: been seen, you don't have no reason. I don't have

1184
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: no reason to stop. I just gotta, you know, pray

1185
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 2: to God that don't stop. You know what I mean.

1186
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 5: It's funny. I wonder if hip hop had limits you

1187
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 5: may do for you.

1188
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 6: And what I mean by that is when people start

1189
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 6: talking about, yo, who's the greatest producers of all time?

1190
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 6: You'll start you a bunch of people who do a

1191
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 6: lot of hip hop records. Right, But you gotta just

1192
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 6: say Jamaine is a musician. If you if you said

1193
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 6: Jamaine is is just a musical producer, And I think

1194
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 6: the conversation is a little bit different.

1195
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1196
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 7: I mean it's hard, man, because I feel like I

1197
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,479
Speaker 7: switched from people. I switch up on people so much.

1198
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 7: When I'm in R and B mode, I'm not talking

1199
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,359
Speaker 7: about no rap, right. I remember one time I came

1200
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:25,800
Speaker 7: up here and I was so R and B and

1201
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:28,600
Speaker 7: out and I want, I'm waving the flag for R

1202
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 7: and B and I ain't talking about nothing rap. I

1203
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 7: think that confuses the podcast and the guys that usually

1204
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 7: talk to me about they like, wait a minute, I thought.

1205
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 2: This nigga was money anything.

1206
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 7: And you you know what I mean, Magic City, this

1207
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:46,760
Speaker 7: niggas over tell me, you want to make division.

1208
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 2: Records, you know what I mean?

1209
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 7: I think that that that throws the whole thing off

1210
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 7: because I do switch. I mean, that's how That's the

1211
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 7: only way I can do it. That's the only way

1212
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 7: I can make it is to get away from, you know,

1213
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 7: from one thing for a minute and go into that

1214
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,600
Speaker 7: space and be one in that space.

1215
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,880
Speaker 6: Is there a media bias even towards the South, But

1216
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 6: I think about that with the producers and the artists.

1217
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,319
Speaker 6: There's some artists from the South who should be getting

1218
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 6: mentioned this top lyricists all the time, and some producers

1219
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 6: from the South should be getting mentioned this top.

1220
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 7: I just think that, and I want to I want

1221
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:19,040
Speaker 7: to get I want to shoot Bank a shout out

1222
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 7: because I feel like his interview with.

1223
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 5: Doug Fantastic pushes brilliant.

1224
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 7: Finally somebody in Atlanta to the forefront of hip hop

1225
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:31,120
Speaker 7: media in the city of Atlanta. And I think it's

1226
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 7: taken thirty years for somebody in the city of Atlanta

1227
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,760
Speaker 7: to be the person that you have to sit down.

1228
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 2: And talk to. If you that guy in hip hop

1229
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,240
Speaker 2: and he just made himself that person.

1230
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 5: If you asked, I'm glad you said that. I said

1231
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 5: it on the air.

1232
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 6: Regional identity matters in media and everything, and Atlanta has

1233
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 6: been the hip hop capital for so long, but have

1234
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 6: never had that media Prince Luther Gray screening on, but

1235
00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 6: they've never had that person You've got to go.

1236
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:01,879
Speaker 7: And I think that's the problem, is like every time

1237
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 7: somebody from Atlanta that's popped, they always had to come

1238
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,960
Speaker 7: to New York. And no disrespect, but I've been saying

1239
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 7: it should have been somebody that did what he did

1240
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 7: with Future Ludacris Ti I got out of jail. We

1241
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:19,280
Speaker 7: know had so many artists that have so many stories

1242
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 7: or they missed the opportunity like what just happened with

1243
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,240
Speaker 7: Doug because we don't have that person in the city,

1244
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,319
Speaker 7: and that just that goes to the culture like people

1245
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 7: should Like I just saw the magazine out there with

1246
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 7: you on the front covered Variety. I've never seen that

1247
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 7: before right in Atlanta. I don't think young people read

1248
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 7: and see things like that to push them to say,

1249
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 7: you know what, I want to do?

1250
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 2: What Charlamagne doing? Man?

1251
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 7: I want to do what Envy doing? He got a

1252
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 7: call show? Like they don't see that enough to distract them.

1253
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,280
Speaker 7: All they see is JD throwing money and this nigga

1254
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 7: throwing money them nigg rapping niggas be I'm gonna be

Speaker 7: a rapper. Nah, you ain't gotta be no rapper.

1256
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,400
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Bank getting ready to hit

1257
00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 2: the bank.

1258
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:00,640
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying based on the way he

1259
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 7: just did that one interview, as far as I'm concerned,

1260
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 7: if he do what he gotta do and he keep

1261
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 7: it at that level and the way he talked to him,

1262
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 7: it makes you gonna have people that really want to

1263
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,359
Speaker 7: sit down and like, let you interview him the same

1264
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:12,919
Speaker 7: way you did.

1265
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 6: And Big Facts has already been that platform to me, right,

1266
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 6: And then now to see Bank doing the perspective with banks, yeah.

1267
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 2: I agree with that. But it took thirty years, That's

1268
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:21,439
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

1269
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:26,360
Speaker 7: It took took thirty years for somebody to say this

1270
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 7: is what we need. I'm gonna do it like this, right,

1271
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,560
Speaker 7: And I'm really happy to see that. I feel like

1272
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 7: that's gonna turn that's gonna change the city because that's

1273
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,720
Speaker 7: gonna people. Somebody gonna see that and they gonna create

1274
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 7: another one, right, and at that point that world will

1275
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:41,040
Speaker 7: open up.

1276
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 2: Because when I came here, I think the beginning of.

1277
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 7: Me talking about Magic City, I was like, Yo, everybody

00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 7: I ain't got time for all that I make music. Right,

1334
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,400
Speaker 7: If you want to talk about music, then that's what

1335
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 7: we talk about. If you want to talk about all

Speaker 7: like transporting kids and all this type of shit going

1341
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 7: on out here now. And just I feel like, because

1342
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 7: we have seen so many people do and get in

1343
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:53,800
Speaker 7: trouble for things. You know, it's like, well, JD part

1344
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 7: of that system.

1345
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 4: Too, JD, I ain't never hear your name bullshit.

1346
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,760
Speaker 7: Nah, But I'm saying like that. I mean, you know,

1347
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 7: I'm been around a long time, but I'm just from

1348
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 7: saying I'm not. I don't I don't have no reason

1349
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,439
Speaker 7: to be doing that, Like I don't have no reason

1350
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 7: to do it.

1351
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 2: And I think a lot of people don't understand, like

1352
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 2: a lot of my success I was with Janet, you

1353
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Like I had, I was the first.

1354
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 7: Nigga to be out here doing that besides Bobby and Whitney,

1355
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 7: you know what I mean. Me and Janet was together

1356
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 7: before Jay and Hole. I mean Jay and b actually

1357
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:26,440
Speaker 7: really announced it. So I was kind of like pushed

1358
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 7: to the side, like a boyfriend type of dude that

1359
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 7: was like just making music.

1360
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,360
Speaker 2: So I don't know, I just think I think that's

1361
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 2: the one.

1362
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 7: I think people just they want me to be in

1363
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 7: that shit, but I'm not going in that direction.

1364
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you wanted a few.

1365

00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 7: Somebody great, I mean I think, you know, I think

1394
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 7: like watching Mariah get Van Gold Award and her performing

1395
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 7: in that piece to of records that I did, I

1396
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 7: think that means that means a lot, you know what

1397
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:13,280
Speaker 7: I mean, like almost like you're saying, it's like my

1398
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 7: records a loud enough to make people damnar believe that

1399
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 7: I had something to do with her success. And that's

1400
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 7: a that's a that's a to me, that's a mean

1401
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 7: accomplishment because I didn't have anything to do with her

1402
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 7: becoming who she is.

1403
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 5: That's not true. I mean it's a second wave.

1404
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, but I'm saying I think I think I might

1405
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 7: have made more black people like her, Yes, but she

1406
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 7: still Rode Carrett.

1407
01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, but it says something you me. I mean, I mean,

1408
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 6: best album I get it me me is brock Carey's

1409
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 6: best album.

1410
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 5: Absolutely, that's probably the definitive album of her whole career.

1411
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 5: That's her thriller.

1412
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 3: It is.

1413
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,720
