He got to beachy 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.320 from twenties, like you know, off of Wide. So it 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.919 was a dope conversation about everything we got going on. 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:48.200 So I was like, oh, you know what, we should 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:53.359 have this conversation on the podcast. So let's get back 0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:55.520 right into it twilight, so we don't lose no space. 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:59.680 You were saying your issue with the the culture specifically 0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:03.639 was us when white people was involved, it would change everything. 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:07.760 Uh not. 0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:11.960 My issue with the culture is that I just feel 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:14.720 like out of every group. 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:18.160 You feel me, every group, every ethnic group, every. 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:23.320 Anybody that come over into America, let me say, they 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:27.000 got some type of camaraderie and love for each other 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:29.560 where they look at each other all the same. Even 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:33.400 the Africans. When the Somalians come over here, they're the Somalians, 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:35.840 you feel me, and they stick in they community and 0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:36.680 they fuck with each other. 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:38.360 You know, they might have a their. 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:41.680 Inner little shit, but overall we know the Samalians rock 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:43.880 with each other. The Jews they do the same thing, 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.800 you know what I'm saying, the Asians. 0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:50.040 So when you say culture, I don't know which culture, 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:50.960 Like you mean just. 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:55.320 Gang bang culture, hip hop culture, or localized black culture 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:56.200 or what you're talking about. 0:03:56.240 --> 0:04:00.360 There you go African Americans, black people, we don't look 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.200 at each other as the same, that we the same. 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:06.120 In fact, I feel like that we got more of 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:09.480 a disdain for the next nigga than we do anybody else. 0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:11.800 So what I was talking about is that how we 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:15.920 don't be having the same energy and hatred for white 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:20.080 people and not specifically a white person. Right, you know 0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:22.400 what I'm saying, not not like you. Right, let me say, like, 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.960 for example, most of these niggas that in this general, 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:28.960 most of these niggas that's in the streets done been 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:32.800 to prison. Most of us have been treated unfairly by 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:37.839 the judicial system. It's the prosecutor that told the judge 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:40.320 I was a flight risk before I even got on 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:42.760 the airplane. I'm just trying to get out and make 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:44.599 bonds so I could be with my family for I 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:45.559 go do my time. 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:47.360 Right, I know I broke the law. 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.279 She get up there on the motherfucker's stands, and I 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.960 know she done did this to a whole lot of niggas. 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.560 He's a flight risk. You're on her make his bill 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:58.360 five million dollars? What bit you lying? 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:00.680 I donly I never even flew nowhere where fuck I'm 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:02.760 gonna go right, she lied on me. 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:06.479 They over senced us. Right, it's the same judge. 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:09.200 The police would be the same police in the same area, 0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.560 beating niggas up, chasing them, planting evidence. Right, a nigga 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:15.039 get out of jail, he'll forget on about that, or 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.520 maybe he don't. He'll harness the anger and unleash the 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.400 anger on another nigga right close to him. He won't 0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:23.640 think about going to that courtroom and doing nothing to 0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:27.480 her or that judge or that or that officer. They 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:29.520 won't think about them, but they'll. 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:32.080 Unleash that same anger on a nigga. 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:35.479 It's like we bullied each other, you feel me, because 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:37.400 we know we at the bottom of the totem pole, 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:40.600 so we take our shit out on each other. But 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.400 I this how the conversation turned into this. I said 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.720 them a rabs. If they was over here getting treated 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:49.200 unfairly and unjust like that and being locked up, and 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:51.240 they had some of the leaders in there where they 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.320 know they innocent, them, a Rabs will blow that court 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:56.599 building up. And he objected to that, and I seen, 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.160 I said, oh this is bit finna get deep, bro. 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:00.320 I said, we should just go live. When me get 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.000 up out the bed, I said, because we too. I see, 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.520 I already know he intelligent, you feel me, and we 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.120 on two different sides of the spectrum. I said, let's 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:09.960 jump on live. So that's where we cut off at 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:13.360 where he's basically said the a rap I'm looking at 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.200 that wrong. They wouldn't you feel me? 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:19.720 So you know what I'm saying, Well, it's like, let's 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:20.480 start with this. 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:29.240 A major a major issue like in our culture right 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:33.080 in La street urban culture, or a major confusion point 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.320 is you said something specific. 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:41.480 I know I broke the law. The one thing about 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:42.640 gang banging. 0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:47.880 Is it's very much rooted in justice. So even when 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.520 you saying like we just treat each other a certain way, 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:54.640 we don't do it to each other just because we're black. See, 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:57.480 And that's why it's disingenuous to kind of root it 0:06:57.520 --> 0:07:00.400 as if you see the next brother and it's an 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.120 issue because he a brother. It's not, you know what 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.760 I mean. It's right now, if we in Loan Beach, 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:08.760 it's because of years and years of violation between two 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:13.200 specific gangs that create that tension. It ain't just because 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:17.520 your skin is black. And another point I was thinking 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.040 was when you were talking about how it is for 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:23.680 those other communities. If you put those people in poor communities, 0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:26.920 they would actually fight each other. Like if we go 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.920 to East La there ain't a black person in site. 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.720 Yet it's really a lot of justice. Is hyper violence 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.440 going on in the streets because everybody is trying to 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:40.800 ride or wrong. Everybody trying to ride a wrong Cambodia 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:43.400 town is the same way if we go to the Asians, 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:48.640 maybe in Chinatown, you know what I mean, or what's 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:50.280 that spot over the Korea. 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:51.320 Or like Garden Grove. 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.200 I feel like they used to have some issues with 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:55.880 the Vietnamese over there before they started getting a little 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.600 bit better off, like thirty years ago, Like they had 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:03.239 Asian boys and then the trgs or whatever in Long Beaches. 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:06.240 Yeah, I said, but see listen, let me let me 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:10.960 interject those when you say Asian boy and TRG, those 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.760 are gangs that came off of I mean those are 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.800 that's a situation that came off of our culture. So 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:20.120 they're copying us. There are people, don't they look down 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.520 on that. Even if you talk to a Pisa from Mexico, 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:24.200 they look down on the tools. 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:27.280 They say they stupid. I talked to I dealt with pisons. 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:28.080 They be like the trolo. 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:28.560 That's dumb. 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:31.720 They fucking killing each other for nothing. Most even when 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:34.400 you say poor, you know Mexicans they can live in 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:35.160 a house with each other. 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.840 And this is no disrespect to my Mexican community because 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.120 I admire this. They can live in a house with 0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.840 each other. Twenty deep about that bag. You can't put 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.040 twenty niggas in the same house. Yeah, but. 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:50.920 Also the trauma, the experience is different, and to compare 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:53.680 them is just kind of not It's just really being 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:55.040 lazy intellectually. 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:59.000 Now see, now the experience is different, and I agree 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:02.560 with that, But that's to start this off. I said 0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:07.760 that we lack the love for ourselves. 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:08.720 But it's not love, and that's what I'm saying. That's 0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:12.640 not true. If you put any poor group of people together, 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.199 they do the exact same thing. Remember, we just start 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.240 street life in Los Angeles. You know, the first street 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.440 gangs in La or La County was not started by 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:25.920 black people. You know, the oldest street gang in Los 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.560 Angeles is a gang in East LA. They had a 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:34.160 rival before the first black street gang popped up. White 0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:37.600 Fence had a rival before the first black Street gang 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:39.840 ever came to the Los Angeles County. 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:45.720 And it was another. So you know that in any 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:49.320 poor ethnic group, right, So when the Somalians come over here, 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:54.160 are they not poor? Or or when the Agans or 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.800 the Koreans like you said Korean town, they started a 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.760 Korean town. So guess what they're doing. They build it economic, 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:03.640 a system in their thing where they keep their money 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.480 within each other. They say, the black people, black people 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:11.120 in America are the group that the dollar stays the 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:12.280 least in their community. 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:16.320 We gonna spend our money with everybody else but us, right, 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:20.040 we're talking about poor people, and actually black people are 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:23.320 not even poor. They say, we got the most, the 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.800 biggest spending habit in America. So if we had the 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:31.800 biggest spending habit with the most camaraderie in love for 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.600 each other, right, we would spend with each other. When 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:37.000 I say that about I say that the hate or 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:39.760 the I feel like that we are being taught of 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:44.839 self hatred. It's not conscious, bro, it's unconscious. 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:48.120 It's not about self hatred. Again, that's like using the 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:51.720 term black on black crime. There are no crimes because 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:54.560 there are black on black crimes. You've never done a 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:56.920 crime to another person in your life, even in your 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.920 most ignorant face, just because they were black. You never 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.880 met a person that you didn't like just because they 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:08.320 were black. That's disingenuous. That's disingenuous to the cause of 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:09.040 what's happening. 0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:13.320 This is the first conversation that we had at Signal Hill, 0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:15.559 the first time I went to the Single Hills studio 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:18.000 I don't know how many years ago, with Malcolm and 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:19.960 some guy from Oakland who I think was an engineer 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:20.680 or something like that. 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:22.160 Yeah, that's pretty funny. 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:24.680 No, this is deep. But it's like, Okay, so listen, 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:28.400 you've never consciously done done a crime to a guy 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:30.240 that's black. But let me ask you this, then, right, 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:32.840 I believe it's subconscious. 0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:36.000 I don't know I've done I've done crime to black people, 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:40.120 but not because they were black, Not consciously, I believe. 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.640 Not not consciously, I know. 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:44.959 But you've never done a crime to somebody because they 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:45.480 were black. 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.319 I believe it was subconsciously. 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:51.840 I believe that we are impregnated from a very young age, 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:54.160 just like the rest of the world, to have to 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:56.120 look at It's not a hatred. 0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:58.560 I'll take that. I'll take the hatred back. 0:11:58.679 --> 0:11:59.920 But it's still a huge point. 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:02.920 It's how you, it's how you thank you. That's why 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:03.280 I knew it. 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:05.600 Was well no, because I definitely want you to make 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:08.080 sure it's not it's not it's not hatred. 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:09.160 It's not hatred. 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:12.040 But I call it a self hate. But if we're 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.040 going to be you know what I'm saying semantic about it. 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:18.880 It's not a hatred, but it's a it's a certain perspective. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.640 It's just like the white lady. She might be not 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:24.240 be like hate black people in a way, but if 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.640 she's a crossing the streets, she's across the street and 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:30.040 some black guys are coming and she got her person, 0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:32.280 might clinch her person a little tighter, or she might 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:36.280 cross the street. That's a subconscious thing. That's something that 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.880 that hold on my life when it that's something that 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:41.400 it's not in the forefront of your mind. So I 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.679 believe that we are taught self hate from the very beginning. 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.160 We're taught to put us, as in black people down, 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:52.160 just like in schools, right, we learned about slavery, but 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:55.559 I didn't get to know we were kings and queens, 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:59.400 that we made math, we made mathematics, we created the 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:03.360 sun died, that the name Memphis, that that they went 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:06.160 into Africa and they stole so many things from us. 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.320 I didn't know how great we were until I went 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:11.320 to prison. I was sitting right next to uh, you know, 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:13.199 it's probably only two white guys in my class, but 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:14.640 let's just say I was in the class with a 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:17.160 white guy, and they was telling me that my peoples 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:21.760 were slaves, that that we was, you know, monkeys in 0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:25.240 the field, running around in the in fucking Africa, in 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:26.240 the wilderness. 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.320 And they basically they civilized us. 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:33.360 So we're not intelligent. Niggas ain't smart because we had 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:36.560 to come over here to even become human. You feel me, 0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:41.000 And this is what was subconsciously impregnated in my mind. 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:45.240 So I developed probably to have a lack of love 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:48.000 for myself and for show for another nigga. 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:49.360 But it might not even be love. 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:55.120 We could say respect because when the police, these these motherfuckers, bro, 0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:58.120 they'll fight the government for what they feel is right. 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:02.240 These motherfuckers is creating suicide bombers. Nigga that's thinking about 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:07.000 doing shit for generations and generations we suicide bombing each 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:11.160 other for some ship that started thirty years ago over 0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:12.400 a bitch or shooting dice. 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:19.080 Yeah, but that's again to minimize it, right, some things are. 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:20.600 Everybody's whole world. 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:25.160 Like, so again this all goes back to the same 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:26.720 conversation of class. 0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:29.040 Like you said something specifically. 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.120 About how the black dollar works, right, he got you 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:32.840 ever noticed over there, bro? 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:34.520 Yeah, he always writes. 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:41.480 Taking note he's knows because if you don't know, because I. 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:43.600 Know, somebody will make a point and then kind of 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:45.880 keep going and you gotta that point. Let me let 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:47.400 me so I can have a response. 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:50.360 Well, no, it's it's I'm listening to your whole point. 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:53.160 But I want to make sure, like when we're talking 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:55.800 about I want to listen to you. So when I'm 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.720 when I'm talking to someone else, I'm writing down what 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.400 they're saying. That are the things that stick out in 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:04.760 my mind, like respect That something I told Pete. I 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:08.880 figured out intelligence is not the ability to speak, it's 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:12.400 the ability to listen, listening in you know what I mean, 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:16.360 to really internalize what you're saying and really not to 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.120 like because what you're saying could make me feel a 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:23.880 certain way. But if I'm listening now, it has no emotions. 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.840 It's like, Okay, let's get down to what we're talking about. 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.400 So true intelligence is the ability to listen in process. 0:15:30.520 --> 0:15:33.840 It ain't about how I respond to you. That all 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:36.800 goes into me listening to you. So I'm listening to 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.600 you for real, I'm not just talking. I'm listening and 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.800 I'm not and I'm not listening to respond. I'm listening 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:46.720 to you again the same thing you're you know, you 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:49.680 the critical of other black people. It's like I'm showing 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:53.440 you firsthand without even thinking about it, this is how 0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:54.720 you treat another person. 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:58.000 Nah, you wise bro, And that's dope for sure. So 0:15:58.280 --> 0:15:59.400 pointed it out. 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:04.080 So like with black dollars, it's also because people form 0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:07.960 businesses in our community first, like growing up like I 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:09.760 grew up in Compton and watched my whole life in 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:13.880 the Richland Farms and one hundred and seventeenth Street. Everybody 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:19.520 had businesses in that community and Compton. The Asian people 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:22.880 around Louisiana chicken as long as I can remember. I 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:25.600 don't want to say with specific group of Asians. Maybe 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:28.040 they were Koreans, I'm not sure, but I don't want 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.640 to be ignorant. It's always been others right in our 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:35.280 specific community monetizing the black dollars. So it's like a 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:38.560 it's not like a true desire to go out and 0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:41.680 spend money with other people, right. What it is is 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:44.359 where you need to spend money that's the most convenient, 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:46.240 happens to be with other people. 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:47.120 Same and loan Beach. 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:53.160 Right, So I listen, I think there's a lot of 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:58.640 things fractured in La street urban lifestyle. There are a 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:02.160 lot of things fractured, But I don't think it's truly 0:17:02.200 --> 0:17:05.320 a self hate. I think again, we're in these small, 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:11.080 really many wars based off of limited resources and limited opportunities, 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:15.520 so you start to overvalue pride, and pride becomes the 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:17.800 fall for all of us. It has I don't think 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:21.960 it's I've never saw brother in my life. Listen, when 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.400 I sold PCP every day, I don't care if your 0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:29.520 skin was as bright or as clear as peats, or 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:34.119 if you was as dark as motherfucking if you was 0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:37.280 as dark as Hussein Boat, as whosain boat, you could 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.760 get this work. You could for sure buy some PCP 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:43.200 for me, sure, right, I don't care if I'm walking 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:46.600 down the street and you are as clear as Casper 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:49.880 the Ghost or you as dark as a black Air 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:52.720 as a Black Air Force one. If you put your 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.800 hand on me, you would get your ass will or 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.480 We're gonna be in a fight, whether I win or lose, right, 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:01.760 And I think that's the same for every person that 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:02.800 comes from our lifestile. 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:04.080 Just what we talked. 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:05.399 I see what you're saying. 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.719 But again we're boxed in right into this really small 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:14.520 area where it's just us, so all our problems can 0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:17.160 look like usha pete of couestion. 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:20.280 I mean, because if you take that proximity application, which 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:24.000 I think is viable in l As, it's definitely viable. 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:25.800 I mean, you'll be for the Mexican gang if they're 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:30.440 the closest.
