Of course 16 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,520 Speaker 4: IRV Gotty's brother, every Goty's big brother. Yes for Queens 17 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 4: New York kilas have you guys been in the industry 18 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 4: for a while, and you guys, both. 19 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,319 Speaker 5: Of y'all founded murder Inc. 20 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 4: YEA, most people only hear IRV one thing about murder Ink, 21 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 4: but you were kind of the silent guy behind everything. 22 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 4: So so talk about how murder ink or the ink 23 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 4: was founded. 24 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 3: It's murdered Ink. We hated that we had to change 25 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 3: that name. That was a rough Simmons and Leo that 26 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: and it came to us and being chavised and said 27 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 3: put Murder to bed because we was down with the 28 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 3: Feds and everything. So Murder Inc. Was founded because IRV 29 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: wanted to be the biggest producer in the world. I 30 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 3: helped make him that, finding producers and we built out 31 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 3: his production company called Top Dog Productions, and we just 32 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 3: started making hit after hit after hit for multiple artists. 33 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 3: IRV didn't say I'm gonna start Murder Inc. See this 34 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 3: is the misconception of most people don't realize that. They 35 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 3: thought Earth came up, were like, I'm gonna start a 36 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: record label. He didn't start a label. He just wanted 37 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 3: to be the biggest producer in the game. And that's 38 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 3: what happened. And because that happened, Tom Matola, Dave nk 39 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 3: Fist and over his Sony said we want to give 40 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: you a record deal. They told us they wanted to 41 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 3: buy four beats. At the time were selling beats for 42 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty thousand tracks. But that's a million dollars. 43 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 3: I'm like, let's go get that. We met up at 44 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 3: Justice the restaurant, you know, did he you know? And 45 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: we go to go to Justin's and meet Dave mc 46 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 3: fiston and we talk and he's like, you know, Tommy 47 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: wants to give you a deal, not he don't want 48 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 3: to buy beats. And to our surprise, he pulls a 49 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 3: contract out and look at it, or if you looked 50 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 3: at it and you threw it right back at him, 51 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: so you serious sent it to our lawyer. So that's 52 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 3: really the bird for Murder Inc. And then we didn't 53 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 3: have a name. We just came up with a bunch 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: of things. Uh, DJ clues doing the mixtape, job's doing 55 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 3: the feature, and inside of that feature, we had a 56 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: bunch of names we had thought of, like Lockdown Records. 57 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 3: He says it in the in the his verses on 58 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 3: the features on the mixtape, and that's kind of where 59 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 3: we was at. And then ARV was watching Arts and 60 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 3: Entertainment one day gangst the Week and he sees Murder Inc. 61 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 3: On the screen and it's the Notorious Murder Inc. Which 62 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: was the Italian guys that was actually making hits. 63 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was doing hits on people in Brooklyn. 64 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's Luckily Ciano outfred Anastasia and those guys. And 65 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 3: the narrator of that show was like the Notorious murder 66 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: Rank and they made hits. I went crazy. He went crazy. 67 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: He called everybody. I got the name. But that's why 68 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 3: if when you ask that question, how to just start 69 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: and if the co founders, that's the co founder. I 70 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: helped make all of the music with them, with all 71 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 3: of the producers, and I just took care of the 72 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 3: business and I took care of my little brother, and 73 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 3: Joe was always the first artist. Another misconception. Joe was 74 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 3: already signed a Murder Death Jam. So his first album 75 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 3: Vineveda Vicci it's on Death Jam. We just get the deal, 76 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: but he already signed his deal. Oh wow, Yeah, people 77 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 3: don't know that. So we had to go basically back 78 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: to Le York and say that's our artists, and then 79 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 3: we had to pay for it to get him back 80 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 3: to Murder Inc. To pay a couple of million dollars. 81 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: Damn okay. That was after the first album, after. 82 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: And then they took some extra points on his next two, 83 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: but a couple million dollars. Look, we had to pay 84 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: for a shanty. She was signed the AJ Records, which 85 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 3: is a shout out Mario Bay. Mary was like an 86 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 3: uncle and he has a shanty. He wanted us to 87 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 3: do records for a shanty on his label. We had 88 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 3: a little independent label and uh a shanty. He was 89 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 3: there with him and IRV didn't really think about doing anything. 90 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 3: Would hit me with the tunnel vision like stay focused, Yo, 91 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 3: we get money with John Rohad, I'm like, yo, she 92 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: could write she's dope and we'll break that broke that 93 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: ice was fat Joe. He called me up because he's 94 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 3: doing a big pun album and he says, I need 95 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: that pun. I need an artist to an R and 96 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: B artist on the hook. I said I got one. 97 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: He said you do. 98 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 3: I was like yeah. I called her up. She drove 99 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 3: right to the studio pendit. Joe's like, yo, she's dope. 100 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 3: I said, I tell her and he told IRV and 101 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 3: said what artists? And then he called me up right 102 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 3: after what at she talking about? Like my R and 103 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 3: B artist? And it was a shanty. He's like what artists? 104 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: And IRV called me right after that. I said, bring 105 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: it to bring it back up. I would bring it 106 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 3: to the office and Earth we wouldn't even want to 107 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 3: talk to Like he's so focused. IRV is turnal focused, 108 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: like when he's locked in you. He's no, I don't 109 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: see no one like this. Dude man, and he would 110 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: be there and he wouldn't even I would have to 111 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 3: force him to just say hi and lie to them like, yeah, 112 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: I listened to your music. Yeah yeah, I'll get back 113 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 3: to you. So he would walk in and say what's 114 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 3: up and right back in his office and they be 115 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 3: like did he like my music? Say? 116 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, he loved it. 117 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. And that's really how we 118 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 3: got a shanty. But Joe the cosign like when like 119 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 3: Irv is an artist, it's very difficult to make artists 120 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 3: listen to you if they don't. Irv is my little brother. 121 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 3: I raised him. He listened to me up to a 122 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 3: certain point. After that point, I had to get someone 123 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: else to so I would send messages through all types 124 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 3: of people to tell him do something, to get it done. 125 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 3: And that's what Joe did for me. 126 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 6: How do you balance family and business in moments like 127 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 6: that though, like you said, especially when y'all got disagreement, 128 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 6: so when he don't want to listen to you no more. 129 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: I never had a disagreement with my brother. I never 130 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 3: put my hands on my little brother. You know, big 131 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: brothers they always talk about that. It was different. I 132 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 3: always seen something in Erv from little he was just 133 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 3: different in a different way. And again, when you talk music, 134 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 3: it's like IRV did anything I did. That's when he 135 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 3: followed anything. I would never tell him anything bad I 136 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: was doing because I didn't want him to do it. 137 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: But the reality is Earth was playing basketball. I used 138 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: to play basketball. Then Earth started really playing basketball and it 139 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 3: was really good, and he had dreams of going somewhere. 140 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 3: For a split second, BJ Carter from Hill Chris High 141 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 3: School was so fast Earth's quit after that, he was like, 142 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 3: if I can't keep up with him, my kid, That's 143 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 3: what kind of ruined his hope dream. But I was DJing, 144 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: and people don't know that I started dj because I 145 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 3: had got some equipment. I won't say how I got it, 146 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 3: but I got some equipment and next thing you know, 147 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 3: Earth started DJing and but he got really good and 148 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 3: that's what started the music. And then I was managing 149 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 3: him in a group called with a DF Crew, which 150 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 3: was Romeo and Roselle. Shut out Roselle, you know what 151 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 3: I'm saying. The godfather of noise, he's a beat box. Yeah, 152 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 3: he was the route. So we had him early days. 153 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: He was from Hollys one hundred ninety nine in Hollis, 154 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: So he was right there. I did not know that. 155 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: I don't know why I thought Rose was from Philly. 156 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 4: With I do want to ask you talk about he 157 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 4: doesn't listen. When he got to his later life, they 158 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 4: said he was having health problems. Yeah, they said nobody 159 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:39,239 Speaker 4: could talk. 160 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: To Earth about talking to him constantly. 161 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 4: They said he wouldn't change his diet, he wouldn't change 162 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 4: his thing, and they said nobody could get through to him. 163 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 5: Why do you think that that was for Earth? 164 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 3: Partially because my pops was hard headed. He got it 165 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: for my dad. So same exact thing, going through diabetes, 166 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 3: health problems, and my dad was like, you can't tell 167 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 3: me God didn't make this orange and I can't eat it. 168 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: You can't you know, this was really our problem. And 169 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: then it's the ignorance of just health. And was the same. 170 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 3: He would be like, there's no way you could tell 171 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 3: me I can't eat this food it's good, and he 172 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 3: would tell you it's healthy and it was trash, you know, 173 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 3: And it was just hard headed. Now, when he had 174 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 3: his first stroke, he had two strokes. The first stroke 175 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 3: basically he was man. I didn't think he was gonna 176 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 3: be here for after that one he was. I went 177 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 3: to the hospital as soon as I heard, I flew 178 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 3: right to l a shout out. Bj BJ found him, Yeah, 179 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 3: you know, bjus picked him up, got him to the hospital. 180 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 3: When he came around, he was like, I don't want 181 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 3: to go to the hospital and take me to the hospital. 182 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 3: I'm gonna take my mads now. Again, it's probably just 183 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: how we are, believe it, very hard headed. I got 184 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 3: a little bit of that too, so I'm not acting 185 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 3: like I don't and BJS no, he said, so stand 186 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 3: up and he couldn't. He stood up and fell back down, 187 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: and see, I know you're going to the hospital. Took 188 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: him to the hospital and I didn't know he's going 189 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: to get past that one. He flew out there and 190 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 3: he was there for I was there for a month 191 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 3: and a half in the hospital, staying with him when 192 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 3: he took about two weeks before he actually came back 193 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 3: and was conscious. But those first two weeks, I didn't 194 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 3: think it was gonna make it. And I always credit 195 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 3: I said, BJ gave us another year basically before the 196 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 3: next one. 197 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: You know, so somebody told me, I'm sorry. 198 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 6: Somebody told me that was a sense of acceptance that 199 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 6: he had, and he would say he would say things 200 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 6: like I'm going I'm going to see popping. 201 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a poppy. 202 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he wrote. If you've seen his gram he 203 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 3: and I would always when I seen it, I would 204 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: call him like, you stop talking like that. I don't 205 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: believe in calling on for death like that unless you 206 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 3: really have a death wish. And I was like, you know, 207 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 3: stop talking, You'll see him when it's your time. And 208 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: you know, IRV was very you know, sess. I pretty 209 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: much see this in every successful person that very particular 210 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 3: how they take information from people, which one or who 211 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: you know, and IRV is no difference. It's no exception 212 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 3: to the rule. He's right there, you know. So say, 213 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 3: with success and money and your damn it, probably feel invincible. 214 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 3: I used to say, IRV used to feel like he's God. 215 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 3: Probably at one point when we was at the height 216 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 3: of murdering, he probably felt like he was the alpha 217 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 3: an omega at one point. And you think he. 218 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 4: Knew when he sold part of his catalog, right, yeah, no, 219 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 4: he sold it all. 220 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 3: Well, heerve on fifty percent of the masters. We had 221 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 3: a fifty to fifty fifty percent he sold it did it? 222 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 3: It was a three hundred million dollars deal, A hundred 223 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,599 Speaker 3: in cash, two hundred for movies and TV products projects. 224 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 4: Do you think he knew at that time to set 225 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 4: his kids up to be like, if something does happen, 226 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 4: every kid to have that. 227 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 5: Do you think that was the mentality. 228 00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 3: Irvs one hundred percent family. So yeah, that's definitely part 229 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 3: of it, and it's also part of health and just 230 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: not you know, just want to make sure, like you said, 231 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 3: things is there for somebody no matter what. Because IRV 232 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 3: accepted death, he always he would always accept death if 233 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 3: that was a consequence of whatever it is. We both 234 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 3: do like I don't ever look at the consequence of 235 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: whatever it is, right, the preciousness of life, think about 236 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 3: that like we're here for such a short amount of time, 237 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 3: but we never thought or thought about anything like that. 238 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: Irv's no different. And that's why when he got sick 239 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 3: and he would tell me like if this is what 240 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 3: it is, this is what it is. But he didn't 241 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: try to prevent it. And that first stroke he did 242 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 3: for his kids because he fought back. His left side 243 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: was paralyzed. He got it all back, and I would 244 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 3: be right there. You could get it all back. I 245 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: did it with my dad at eighty two. I made 246 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 3: him vegan. He no longer was diabetic. But what took 247 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 3: my dad cancer The causes of that sugar creates the 248 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 3: cancer in your body, and he died from lung cancer. 249 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: He beat cancer in his thigh, shoulder, spine, but didn't 250 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: beat through lung cancer. He finished. He passed at eighty six. 251 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 3: But look, I'll sign off right now. So one said 252 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 3: eighty six, that's your date done. I'm fifty eight, let's go. 253 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: It's just the reality of your life. Like we all know, 254 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 3: this is. You know, no one talks mortality, especially when 255 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 3: you're young. But it's coming. And we don't know when. 256 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 3: That's the reality too. We don't have it. No one 257 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 3: knows that expiration day. So what is? 258 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 7: How is your health? You said you earlier you're hardheaded 259 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 7: as well. 260 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I'm fast now. I've been doing this for years. 261 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 3: I credit phil Ovey. I don't know if you guys 262 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 3: know who feel Out is. The poker player I managed 263 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 3: feel Out in twenty four years now. Still currently I 264 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 3: know that. 265 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think you've been up at one. 266 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 3: I think I don't think so maybe he might have 267 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: been early on early. You know, we shot out Phil. 268 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: He's having another baby, man, and that's something I fought 269 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 3: with him to have. You know, some kids got to 270 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 3: keep them going, man. But yeah, Phil changed my life 271 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 3: since COVID. I'm going to go back to COVID. I 272 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: mean I was out in Vegas. I ran a record 273 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: label called super Nova Forum. You know, he had some 274 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 3: incredible artists. Man, it's crazy. He's not the best of 275 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 3: understanding of how to not give these artists everything they want. 276 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 3: He gave them too much and when you didn't succeed yet, 277 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 3: that's not a good formula for success. Got to have 278 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: that hunger. 279 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 8: I saw that you and jan Rule are figuring out 280 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 8: like some sort of organization to help educate people and 281 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 8: using So you're leaning into holistic medicine. 282 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been. I've been holistic for years. The only 283 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 3: thing I would go to a doctor for today would 284 00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 3: be like a broken bone or something. Holistically, I've fix 285 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 3: everything and any ills. But you know, if you, if 286 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: you take care of yourself, those will be very far 287 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 3: and few between. If I really believe that. You know, 288 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 3: I was looking reading something with a Farakhan or the 289 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 3: Honorable Elijah Muhamed. They will listen as I live. And 290 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 3: he said, if you don't eat, if you eat one 291 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 3: meal a day, he said, you might not get sick 292 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 3: for every three years. If you don't eat in three days. 293 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 3: You know, a fast in a three day time, he said, 294 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: you probably will get sick once every ten years. And 295 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 3: you know, if you go longer in a fast, it's 296 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 3: like you won't even get sick. The food is what 297 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: kills us. It's just the reality. The body God designed 298 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 3: is perfect. Think about it like that and then you 299 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 3: understand the only thing impure is what you're putting inside 300 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 3: your body. So if you don't understand that or that 301 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 3: concept of floating, it's what it is. But I do 302 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 3: do you deal with a holistic doctor? Sandy? That's my girl, 303 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 3: She's amazing. 304 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 6: I want to go back to the murder any days 305 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 6: for a second. Yeah, what do you think the culture 306 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 6: underestimates about that era? 307 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 3: The culture in that era again when I I love 308 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 3: these kids today, I promise you. But the business is 309 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: all messed up because of the Internet. I have a 310 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: distribution company Average Music. I'm fully engulfed inside of music 311 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 3: from the how to help or empower independent artists. But 312 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 3: today versus then, it's again the competition. Today's again, it's 313 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: a needle in a haystack for real today, like you 314 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 3: could be the dopest artist and no one could even 315 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 3: hear you. I always talked about this years ago, like 316 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 3: how come we don't have another Whitney Houston? How can 317 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 3: we don't have another luth Evangelis? These are like iconic, 318 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 3: you know, classical, you know, I need a Baker's because 319 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 3: it's too hard to find them. And then the labels, 320 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 3: when they stop pumping the money in to actually create 321 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: that star and market that artist, there's no way. There's 322 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 3: not a chance in hell today the artists, that's the challenge. 323 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 3: You have to actually become that on your own, and 324 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 3: that is a huge challenge. And they're doing great jobs 325 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 3: as far as the marketing and building social media's and 326 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 3: all that influence. But there's so much options, you know, 327 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: think of it. Let's use food. We was just talking food. 328 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 3: I always talk to artists like food. If you're artists 329 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: delivering music, you're feeding you're feeding your fan. Stop putting 330 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 3: out music and the fan is gonna eat somewhere else. 331 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 3: They're not waiting on you. Today where they would wait 332 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 3: on man, that next job Rule album, that next DMX album, 333 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 3: that next job jay Z album. They was waiting on 334 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 3: that light. I don't see that anticipation for the most artists. 335 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 3: There's still some legacy artists that are still today. Or 336 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: Drake I'll use him, or Kendrick, they have that power 337 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 3: of future. You know, they still have that power. But 338 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: I promise you they better, they better keep it going. 339 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 3: The longer they go dormant, the harder it is to 340 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 3: get that audience back. 341 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: So what was the biggest mistake you see labels making 342 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: the day? 343 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: The biggest mistake for labels is not investing artists. We 344 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 3: have to find a way to invest in the artist, 345 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 3: you know, to expect the artists to walk in the 346 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: door and be a star. It's like, that's not real, ridiculous, 347 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: that's not real. Michael Jackson's five years old, groomed to 348 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 3: be the king of pop for all those years. It's 349 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 3: a reason. It's not just by chance. And of course 350 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 3: quality music and talent it has to be there. So 351 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 3: again it's what it is. You gotta groom, you gotta groom, 352 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 3: and you gotta understand it. And there's so many outlets 353 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: now that reached so many people. It's not just here, right, 354 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 3: there's so many different places. So that makes marketing easier 355 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 3: for the artists, and they still can't hone in. 356 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 6: The artists don't even like the market. They don't even 357 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 6: like to do the you know, the the person. 358 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 3: The amount of time an artist has with a hit record, 359 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 3: today's is another problem. In our day three we make 360 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 3: an album. We knew we had three four singles. We 361 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 3: knew we dominated for a year, like we locked in. 362 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 3: We have this year. This is our year, not a month. 363 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 3: This is our year. Because we knew we had the 364 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: first single, the second single, the third, we locked and 365 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,959 Speaker 3: that's how we built out our business. You can't do 366 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 3: that today you'll be dead. You have to you have 367 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 3: to feed them. You know, think about how much music 368 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 3: like your Drake puts out. It's a massive number and 369 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 3: all the content he does and all the man it's 370 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 3: night and day. 371 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 4: I always want to know how did you navigate with 372 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 4: IRV having problems with all of y'all friends, Like one 373 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 4: time IRV was not messed with whole. 374 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 5: Then it was Fat Joe, then. 375 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 4: It was DMX, then it was nas Like, how did 376 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 4: you navigate that part of it. 377 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 3: Because families fight. If we didn't, if we're not close 378 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 3: in the beginning, then it doesn't matter. Then you know, 379 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 3: it's really like whatever then, but it's not. And that's 380 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 3: just the facts. And you make mistakes. IRV made a 381 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 3: ton of mistakes. If he was here, like here or not, 382 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 3: I'm going to always speak the reality of what it was. 383 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 3: IRV made a lot of mistakes. For instance, with jay 384 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 3: Z Nas, they beefing. IRV made super ugly. You know, 385 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 3: he produced that record to go after that and talk 386 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: to jay Z and say, I'm yo, I'm gonna sign 387 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 3: Nas what you think of course wearing Baseline studios? What 388 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 3: did whole before IRV spoke, I said, will I'll give 389 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 3: you the PG version, But I told him whatever you 390 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 3: want to do, I'm with you. And then IRV was like, yo, 391 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 3: it's good business. And he's telling him it's like, Yo, 392 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: are you crazy? You can't tell your man you want 393 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 3: to work with his enemy like that? Like and I's like, nah, 394 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 3: it's just on. Jay was like, you know, he was 395 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 3: asking him, does he have real beef with w He said, Noah, 396 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 3: it's just like music. But Jay's keeping it cordial like 397 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 3: to see where ERV is going with j plays chess, 398 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 3: he's not playing like he wants to see what you're 399 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 3: going to say and and IRV as soon as Jay 400 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 3: said it's not beef like that, he turned to me 401 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 3: he said, I told you, I told you, And Jay 402 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 3: looking at me like, yo, is he serious? And I 403 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 3: was like, wow, he's crazy. But you can again when 404 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 3: you asked something earlier, you asked about like I was 405 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 3: always in a back IRV. This is all about IRV. 406 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 3: Businesses are business, right, the way we conduct our business, 407 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 3: that's all business. But it was all about earth. I 408 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 3: never wanted to be in front of the camera behind him, 409 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 3: and never I was forced into that. Everyone you know, 410 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 3: everybody I was forcing into. But that's the reality with 411 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 3: murder Rink. I was always my job from IRV was 412 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 3: what do you need? Keep everyone away from him so 413 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 3: he could stay focused.

And not just New York. 416 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 3: Every city we went into they all wanted in. That's 417 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: the ror we was in. They all wanted a piece 418 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 3: of a goose that laid the golden egg. And I 419 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 3: had to deal with them and keep them away.

Why was Jay upset with herv 446 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 6: but not Steve? And Steve presented the deal. 447 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 3: Well, Steve was also remembering Steve was also part of 448 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,479 Speaker 3: a lot of it. That's why Damon always has obief 449 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 3: with Steve's because of that. Steve was funneling a lot 450 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 3: of deals with Jay and then seeing Jay again pulled 451 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 3: that way instead of going through Dame and dealing with 452 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: the you know that side of it.

That's on you, bro, 463 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 3: That's not on me. And that's the same way I 464 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 3: look at with Jay and Steve that you know what 465 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 3: I'm saying, If he don't go back to Dame, if 466 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 3: he doesn't go back to Dame and say something, I 467 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 3: feel you had to come and talk to me.

I asked them all kind of crazy questions 564 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 3: because that's just me. It's like, was you messing with Ashanti? 565 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: Is that your girl?

That's you know what I mean, 583 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 3: That's what we do. But at the end of the day, 584 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 3: you listen to what he's really saying. And IRV is 585 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 3: not a liar.

He's not here 605 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 3: no more. He can't even say that. If I hear 606 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 3: something wrong, I will correct it. But that's just for 607 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 3: respect for my brother. But I never hated that. I 608 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 3: never took his side with her. Hated it like that 609 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 3: was something I had to deal with him. And I'm like, yo, 610 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 3: that's your relationship. You know, that's your business. This is 611 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 3: over here. He was like, she didn't come to the trial. 612 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 3: I said she was at the tild Yeah, because Darcell 613 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 3: called her. I said, I called her. I called her 614 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 3: and said you should be there and she showed up. 615 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,479 Speaker 3: What more do you want? You guys all fight? And 616 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 3: what else I always say is I say, let me 617 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 3: talk to your ex and let me see what she's 618 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: gonna say. Let me talk. You know what I'm saying. 619 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 3: That's just what it is. That's the fact. 620 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 8: Have you and a chance been able to talk since everything? 621 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 8: Because I saw that you were upset with her when 622 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 8: she sat down with Angie Martinez and she. 623 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 3: Said that, yeah, I was upset because we haven't spoke 624 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 3: in person after ERR's passing. Imagine that, and I promise 625 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 3: you I'm the reason she was murdering more. IRV made 626 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 3: the records, but Earth would have never got to that point. 627 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 3: If I don't do what I did. I used to 628 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 3: fly up to Jersey giving her music to make record 629 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 3: after record. If I don't put her on the punt, 630 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 3: it never happens. And I did that. She knows it 631 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 3: for her not to call me after ERR's passion. She 632 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 3: texts me that that don't feel right. Her mother Tina, 633 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,959 Speaker 3: that don't feel right. You understand like I did everything 634 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 3: for them, never did I did one thing in return? 635 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 3: Don't count tickets because I could get that myself. You 636 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 3: know what I'm saying to a show. That's just the 637 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 3: fact I'm not gonna sit here with sugar coat nothing. 638 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 3: And that's why I felt the way. And then when 639 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 3: I see it, I'm like, nah, that's not cool. Ever. 640 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 3: But again, she's thinking career, but she's a legacy artist. 641 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: She has no new music. Her career is solidified. She's fine, 642 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 3: stay in shape. This is the reality and delivering them. 643 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 3: You'll be able to do that until you're gone and 644 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 3: make a living. She's fine. That's what we did. We 645 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 3: gave them hit records. That's the reality. Joe rules the same, 646 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 3: gave him, gave him them h and John again, he's amazing. 647 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 3: And yes, it's a marriage. When I say we gave him, 648 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 3: it's a marriage. Lyric can beat and I know there 649 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: was a point she was like she wants her masters, 650 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: and that's why IRV was like, I'm not like Leor 651 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 3: meaning Leo wasn't in the studio making those records with you, 652 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 3: meaning when you wrote those songs and I corrected it. 653 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 3: I'm part of that too. When I put that record 654 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 3: out and I did the beat, and then I have 655 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 3: to go market promoted physically to get it off the ground. 656 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 3: You know, there's so much details of the murdering history 657 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: that we don't know or the public doesn't know. Ashanti, 658 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:17,959 Speaker 3: we didn't have her signed and we put Foolish out. Yeah, 659 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 3: number one record in the country and she's not signed. 660 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 3: You know how much it costs us to get her 661 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 3: from that little AJM Records five million dollars out of 662 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 3: our pife five because we gotta hit record. We gotta 663 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 3: hit record on her. So now he's the numbers up 664 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 3: five million. 665 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: What made y'all put the record out before she. 666 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 3: Was nerv IRV moves with his heart. Leo said, I'm 667 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 3: not gonna pay for nothing. It was like we going. 668 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 3: It's timing. You know, success is number one reason for success. 669 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 3: Is timing number one reason for all success, any business, 670 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 3: whatever it is, is the timing. IRV understood timing at 671 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 3: the highest level. We have to go. Now. He knew 672 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 3: what the world was looking for. That's why she's still 673 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: That's all it is. It's the timing and she put boom. 674 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,399 Speaker 3: It worked, but now we gotta pay and he did. 675 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 3: She knows we had to pay that money. But look, 676 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 3: IRV said, loyalty. He figured that's what hurt him. See, 677 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 3: this is the plot that heard him. He's thinking, she's 678 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 3: gonna be loyal with me on just business things and stuff. 679 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 3: And again then it turned into relationship too, because in 680 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 3: that moment he wasn't messing with her yet. He just 681 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 3: seen a talented young girl and that's it, and that's 682 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 3: what she was. That's what she is like. She's she's 683 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 3: an amazing writer. She's an incredible artist, and she always 684 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 3: wanted to sing. She could sing pitch perfect. People don't 685 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 3: know about her if you think about her career, they 686 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 3: always like, she can't really sing. But that's what Earth created. 687 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 3: She hated she wasn't singing. But remember she had three 688 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 3: deals before Earth, so she lost three times time. Fourth 689 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 3: time was the jump. So when you think about it 690 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 3: from a business standpoint, I'm a business guy. When I 691 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 3: think the business of it, that's what happened. You know 692 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 3: what I'm saying. She was with NOONI and those guys 693 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 3: in noontime and all of that. No records, but you're singing. 694 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 3: You're making a record that no one wants to hear 695 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 3: because the timing is not right. Not saying they want 696 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 3: good records. It's the timing of it. It's the average 697 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 3: changing the culture. Irv's part of the culture. That's he 698 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 3: created this culture, this sound that was coming out of 699 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 3: us and all these other artists. He put his hands 700 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 3: on pause. 701 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 6: Y'all probably didn't make a lot of money off fools either, 702 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 6: because that was a bad boy sample. 703 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 3: No, yes, it's a sample. Wasn't bad we did. We 704 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,399 Speaker 3: didn't give it to Puff Earth kind of. He went 705 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 3: to him and told him, I'm using Biggie, but I 706 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 3: ain't using your biggie because Puffy wanted him to use that, 707 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 3: so he get it. He went to the original. 708 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 8: Earth sold them the catalog for his part of the 709 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 8: catalog was Ashanti's Master's a part of that. 710 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 3: Every song he made, every song he made, every song, 711 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 3: he produced everything. Because it's when you sell the masters, 712 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 3: not just masters. Publishing goes along with it because whatever 713 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 3: is paying that kind of money, they don't want to 714 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 3: go fight for the now with the publisher and say 715 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 3: you can't use it. They won it all and you 716 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 3: know they had to get a clue, you know that, 717 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 3: and that's what they did. They did that with Universal. 718 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 3: So in our contract we had full control of the 719 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,760 Speaker 3: master of one hundred percent, but we had to share 720 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 3: fifty to fifty. So basically wherever that music was gonna 721 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 3: get put anywhere, we could say yes or no to. 722 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 3: Does that make sense? Okay? So that's how we had 723 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 3: to set up. So when he sold it, they inherited 724 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 3: that writer. So universal can't stop iconoclass. Who has the masters? Now? 725 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 8: I was asking because right when he sold something previously, 726 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 8: like with Jarrol, did he give y roll cut? 727 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, he gave joll But you know again that's family business. 728 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 8: Got you, so there's nothing like that. But that was 729 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 8: going down with Ashanti's situation. 730 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: For the part that he. 731 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 3: Y'all was supposed to be, it's a different business. 732 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 5: Was yoah a owner of. 733 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 3: That's what y'all was supposed to be? Officially? Never happened. 734 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 3: Never happened? 735 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 5: Why not? 736 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 3: Just timing? IRV IRV was gonna sign to Joe Ruse's 737 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 3: label as the first artist for JOAB. 738 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: I heard that before. That was like, I have this legend. 739 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. I have the napkin I 740 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 3: wrote the contract on and they both signed it. I 741 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 3: have it somewhere, but that's what the contract was. Because 742 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 3: RV was like if okay. We would be in the 743 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 3: studio and RV would rewrap everyone's song for them to 744 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 3: show him how to deliver the song. Not so much Joe, 745 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 3: but like the other artists. And then he understood how 746 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 3: to deliver as a producer, he understood how to deliver 747 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 3: vocals on music. You know what I'm saying, and that 748 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,799 Speaker 3: is what man. When Joe said, Nah, you can't go 749 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 3: out like that, then he was like, He's gonna write 750 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 3: his song because E wasn't a writer. Joe was like, 751 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,240 Speaker 3: I'll write all your music. You're gonna be my artist 752 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 3: on my label, and they signed a deal. It just 753 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 3: never came to fruition, just like Josh getting his piece 754 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 3: of Murdering. 755 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 5: So that was his piece when he sold the thing, 756 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 5: that was his piece. 757 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 6: For one question, my fools it was at the Bard 758 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 6: sample right, but she had Biggie's voice and foolish. 759 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: It was another one that was a remix, the remix 760 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:20,919 Speaker 1: we did, the remix. 761 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 3: That we didn't have it, the rision doesn't have it. 762 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: What was the most underrated part of your role in 763 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: building murder. 764 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't you know. I'm very humble. I 765 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 3: like I said, I did everything I had to do 766 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 3: for my brother. I'm my brother's keeper. And that's the crazy. 767 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 3: Everything I had to do on anything you could think 768 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 3: that needs to be done, I did it. I faced 769 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 3: twenty years. It's something that wasn't for me. That's the 770 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 3: that's the ultimate.

I did every motion hearing, every you know, motionaries. 824 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 3: You usually don't go. It's just your lawyers in there, prosecutor. 825 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 3: They're deciding on what evidence gets submitted in the trial. 826 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 3: That's where you win and lose cases. My judge the 827 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 3: first day said why are we here? We know these 828 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 3: guys are guilty. My judge, I couldn't believe it. I 829 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 3: turned to shot YAlO, which is my lawyer. He's not 830 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,399 Speaker 3: here no more's Jerry chat YAlO, best lawyer in the game. 831 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 3: And I turned to chat Yell and I'm looking at him, 832 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 3: and then I just start staring at the lawyer and 833 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 3: I write down this grounds for an appeal and I 834 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 3: slide shot yo shaq Yel says we'll talk afterwards. So 835 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 3: we go in the hallway and the judge sees me 836 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 3: staring at him, and he realizes I'm not like a paralegal. Oh, 837 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 3: this is really the client. This is because they never 838 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 3: show clients and never go to motionaries. So they're like, 839 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 3: oh man, oh well, and he changes everything up after 840 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 3: it saw over the prosecutors smirking and laughing like yeah, 841 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 3: got him, we got this one right. Yeah. So we 842 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 3: go out in the hallway and he said, Chris, I 843 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 3: know the judge. We went to school together. He says, 844 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 3: he's probably gonna be the most fearish judge you're gonna 845 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 3: get in the Southern day Street. 846 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 2: I said what. 847 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 3: I said? What he said? I proudly he said, I 848 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: wouldn't we could make emotion to change because what he said. 849 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 3: He said, but I wouldn't do that. I'm going to 850 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 3: tell you trust me. And I said, oh my god. 851 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 3: I was like, this is who you want the judge 852 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 3: to be for my case, and I'll keep it a hunted. 853 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 3: You know, when we first started, we had like twenty 854 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 3: four charges. It wasn't just two. Every they put everything 855 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 3: on it on it, just threw everything anything previous dealing 856 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 3: with they threw on us. And we get we get 857 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 3: to the next day for the motion hearing, and that 858 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 3: judge blocked everything because he knew he messed up the 859 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:59,359 Speaker 3: day before. I really believe that he blocked everything. I mean, 860 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 3: I keep it on it. I had a lot of 861 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 3: guns and things, and I never sold drugs in my life. 862 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 3: I might have robbed the drug dealer. I never sold 863 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 3: the drugs except for when I sold what I robbed. 864 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:09,760 Speaker 3: But that's different. 865 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,240 Speaker 2: That's a different that's a different. 866 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,399 Speaker 4: Say selling to customers he sold they have a drug. 867 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 3: He said, yes, yes, at a discount too. They love that. 868 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 3: They love me, these guys. So at the end of 869 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 3: the day, end of the day, I feel that guilt. 870 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 3: He had that next day he blocked everything. And that 871 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,720 Speaker 3: is the defining moments of why there's no way those jurors, 872 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 3: twelve jermors of not your peers, that it is not 873 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 3: your peers, is going to find you innocent with twenty 874 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 3: four chargers and you understand there's no way. You know. 875 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 3: The most chilling moment for me, again I was very 876 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 3: ignorant to a lot of this stuff, was the first 877 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 3: day of court.

Let's not make any sugar 944 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 3: coating about it. It's an attractive young lady. She wants 945 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,840 Speaker 3: to make music. What could you do with this? You 946 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 3: want that beat? Okay, let's go over here. And she 947 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 3: told me. She told me, and she was like, thank you. 948 00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 3: She thanked me for always taking care of it.

The day of versus, he pulls up 952 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 3: and I said, what do you want to do? You 953 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,359 Speaker 3: ask her like she come up and you ask her, 954 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 3: what do you want to do? I roll this off 955 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 3: the stage. She said, no, I'll give you the sign 956 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 3: if there's a problem. But that's the day they got 957 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 3: back together. That's why you don't get in the middle 958 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 3: of relationships. It's different. That's why I never got any 959 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 3: and herd together. I never did. I just tried to 960 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 3: keep it cool with them and keep the business moving. 961 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 3: I could have swell. 962 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 7: It was reported that she went to the funeral. 963 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 3: Okay, so she they lied. They did put a report 964 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 3: that she was They lied again. She probably got a 965 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 3: good publish or something. 966 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:33,839 Speaker 5: I want to ask you. 967 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,720 Speaker 3: You know, you know she came and stay to my mother. 968 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 3: That's the part that's deeper than just what it is. 969 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:45,799 Speaker 3: She knows that she knows. Ninnie, come on, this is 970 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 3: all that is off. When it's death, it's over nothing 971 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 3: Earth could say nothing, no more, it's over.

I 974 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 3: can see you at a show. What's the difference. That's 975 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 3: how I look at it me personally. 976 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 8: She had said that she tried to there was an 977 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 8: olive branch or whatever that she tried to extend or 978 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 8: was extended, but it wasn't received well. So you think 979 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 8: that that's why she kind of text me. 980 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 3: I wasn't in the mood for texting. You understand.

Who can? Who 994 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 3: can sit there and say she did something more than 995 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,839 Speaker 3: what it is? Like, Yeah, she wrote the records with him. 996 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 3: She hated every hit record. How about that? So what 997 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 3: if we listen to her? Did she become a shanty? 998 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 3: That's the facts? For baby Baby? She hated? That was 999 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 3: too many babies. It's one of my favorite records. 1000 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:26,439 Speaker 2: Irv Winne Booth and Soda. 1001 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 3: You gotta sing like this, he said, you gotta feel like. 1002 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:29,720 Speaker 1: You you high. 1003 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 2: You don't get high. 1004 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 3: That's why you don't know what it is. 1005 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 2: It's what he told her. 1006 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 3: And he said, you gotta be strung out on a 1007 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 3: man that way, and he's so I don't want to 1008 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:44,760 Speaker 3: hear it pitch perfect. I say, I'm stupid gotty sing 1009 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 3: it like that, and she did, see I give credit 1010 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 3: for the listening. A producer has to be able to 1011 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 3: produce or else you just the beat maker, right, and 1012 00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 3: you're leaving it in the hands of an artist. And 1013 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 3: that's the reality. If you trust that producer, which they 1014 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 3: trusted her, they was able to get through and make 1015 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:11,439 Speaker 3: those changes. She compromised her own belief for his, which 1016 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 3: is to her credit, you know. And that's the reality, y'all. 1017 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 3: Is the favorite time with y'all was Holla, holla, I 1018 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 3: get that beat, I run to the studio, or puts 1019 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 3: it up. Jo y'all did two hooks? Write the hook? First? 1020 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 3: We playing cards in the other room. He comes out 1021 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 3: with a hook. That's not it, Go write another hook? 1022 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 3: What if? Joall said, NAHRV, that's it. That's what these 1023 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,359 Speaker 3: artists do today. It's like they can't be wrong. Nah, 1024 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 3: that's it. IRV said, No, that's not it. Came out 1025 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 3: with another one that's not it. The third one, Yo, 1026 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna double it up. I'm gonna do with the beat. 1027 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 3: Halla Halla, room, go crazy, go write it. 1028 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 2: He wrote the hook. 1029 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 3: And the verses, it's like they was written already, that's 1030 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,320 Speaker 3: how fast it was. And we tall about sixteen bars, 1031 00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 3: three times three sixteen bars. It was like it was 1032 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 3: as soon as he got the hook, the verses was 1033 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 3: like done. Good record. But that's the that's the beauty 1034 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 3: of a producer. And that's to me. IRV is a producer, 1035 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 3: for real, for real. And then when I look in 1036 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 3: the industry, doctor Dre, who is Irv's idol, He idolized 1037 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,319 Speaker 3: like he's the best. I don't even know how he 1038 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 3: made this or how he did that, But doctor Dre 1039 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 3: is a real producer, you know. And you have a 1040 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 3: lot of them, you know. I remember Tim and IRV Timboll, you. 1041 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:30,879 Speaker 5: Know, they they used to have. 1042 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,800 Speaker 3: Little competitions, you know, and he would tell her because 1043 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 3: Tim's on huge records, and IRV say, did you tell 1044 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,839 Speaker 3: him what to do? He said, how come you didn't 1045 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 3: make magoua hit? You know, yes, this is this was 1046 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:50,319 Speaker 3: Irving Timm's conversations. But when you think about it, it's real. 1047 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 3: I get it. I'm just in the back listening, you know, 1048 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 3: I'm that and I'm like, man, that's real stuff. Though. 1049 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 4: How many people did you have to fight for? Because 1050 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 4: IRV had a crazy he's my fause. 1051 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 3: Listen, meanf would go out, I would get the call 1052 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 3: over and that's like a constant. All of his friends. 1053 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 3: Everyone will tell you, like they would call me and 1054 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:16,759 Speaker 3: they would be like, Yo, your brother's here. But you 1055 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 3: know I really don't fuck with them. I said, well, 1056 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 3: then don't call me. You can't not fuck with my 1057 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 3: brother and tell me you fuck with me. That's impossible. Nah, 1058 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:28,919 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Chris, You know what I mean. 1059 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 3: I well, didn't make sure he's good, and that's what 1060 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 3: would happen. So I didn't really fight a lot. I'm blessed. 1061 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 3: I was blessed in the sense of I got a 1062 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 3: lot of respect. You know, the people I fought wasn't 1063 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 3: really for Earth. I fought a lot, but it wasn't 1064 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 3: for Earth. There was a respect and when I everyone 1065 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:53,439 Speaker 3: knew if you didn't mess with Earth, you can't fuck 1066 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 3: with me. Don't come over here. You know, I'll give 1067 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 3: you the Jimmy Henchman shout out Jimmy again. But this 1068 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 3: is how we actually got cool. He kept coming to 1069 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 3: meet me at different clubs. Y'all want to talk to 1070 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 3: your brother. I said, okay, what you want to talk about, Jimmy, 1071 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 3: talk to me. I said, I want to talk to 1072 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 3: your brother. I said, Jimmy, I'm telling you, I'm gonna 1073 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 3: get it to like I don't lie. If you're gonna 1074 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:16,919 Speaker 3: tell me, I'm gonna get it to Irving, just talk 1075 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:20,479 Speaker 3: to me. And then he said it again and I said, 1076 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 3: I am IRV nigga. What's up? And then oh yeah, 1077 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:28,879 Speaker 3: And then it was tension, a lot of tension with Jimmy. 1078 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 3: Now we didn't get into any conflict. We resolved it. 1079 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 3: But when you deal with predators, and I dealt with 1080 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 3: a lot of predators, you have to deal with them. 1081 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 3: They only respect power strength. So if I didn't show 1082 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 3: Jimmy's strength, it would have been probably a whole nother situation. 1083 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 4: Do you think the industry is messed up? Because now 1084 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 4: it's gonna sound crazy. Back in the day, when hip 1085 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 4: hop was prevalent and everybody was running. 1086 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 2: There were predators or they were street. 1087 00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 4: Than today, it seems like it's not as bad as 1088 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 4: seemed like people are just doing whatever they want to do. 1089 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 3: I think got times worse back in our era. Versus today. 1090 00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 5: But you think there was more control. 1091 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,280 Speaker 4: There was somebody on the West, there was somebody in Houston, 1092 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 4: there was somebody in Brooklyn, there was somebody in Queys. 1093 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 4: There was somebody in Bronx. That kept the artists being 1094 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 4: artists and the street guys. 1095 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:18,760 Speaker 1: There was a cold. 1096 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 5: It doesn't seem like that cold is there now. 1097 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 3: It is. It is, let's say lawless, but the cold 1098 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,799 Speaker 3: back then most people didn't have the right person they 1099 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,799 Speaker 3: was dealing with. I mean, I don't want to, but 1100 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 3: I had tons of people's jury in my hand that 1101 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 3: I shouldn't have had in my hand. And I'm like, 1102 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 3: and the reason they come to me. They was coming 1103 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 3: to me, these guys was they would tell me, do 1104 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 3: you know them? I'll get it back to them. But 1105 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:48,399 Speaker 3: then they want me to pay for them, or want 1106 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 3: them to pay for it, and I'm like, nah, I 1107 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 3: don't want to get into the middle of that business. Now. 1108 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:53,520 Speaker 3: If you was my man and it was that, I 1109 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:58,560 Speaker 3: call you up and I would ask you, hey, something happened, 1110 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 3: I wouldn't say anything. I would you good is everything? 1111 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 3: And I want them to confess and they would. Ninety 1112 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 3: nine times out of one hundred they did not confess. 1113 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 3: They would act like it was cool, like nah, no 1114 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,400 Speaker 3: one wants to act like they got robbed or anything. 1115 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 3: They want to always act like okay, Well then if 1116 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 3: you don't, you said nothing even cool? 1117 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: You know I saw that. Sorry to cut you off. 1118 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 8: Just speaking of this made me think that they're doing 1119 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 8: the Supreme Team docutaries or documentary. 1120 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 3: Well, the documentary is documentary on Supreme. It is called 1121 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 3: The Supreme Truth. And yeah, shot out Luke. He made 1122 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 3: an incredible film, him and Michael J. Payton, and it's 1123 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 3: again just backed on with facts like it was fact checked. 1124 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 3: There was no this is my opinion. You know. That's 1125 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 3: one of the things Preme insisted on. He wanted to 1126 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 3: get all of the facts where people lied or this 1127 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 3: is impossible because this is what it is. Because the 1128 00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 3: reality is he's in on the wrong charges and I'll 1129 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 3: leave it at that. What he's convicted of is not 1130 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 3: what he did. But when you go in front of 1131 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 3: twelve people with a history like he has, oh man, 1132 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 3: good luck and getting them to say not guilty. And 1133 00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 3: that's just the fact. Because I was there for that 1134 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 3: whole trial and it's all it's all lies. It's based 1135 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 3: on lies. It's all snitches. But they're gonna the twelve 1136 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 3: were gonna believe that because you have a history. They're 1137 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 3: not gonna sit there and say, oh, he couldn't have 1138 00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 3: done that. That part of your brain is not happening. 1139 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 3: It's not happening. So did He trial must have drove 1140 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 3: you crazy. You know, the did He trial? I was 1141 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,320 Speaker 3: just with Christian out in LA not too long ago. 1142 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 3: Shout o Christian and whole family. You know, I'm just 1143 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,760 Speaker 3: because I can't imagine what they're dealing with. My biggest 1144 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:48,960 Speaker 3: problem with the trial is when it first started, you know, 1145 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 3: the way they promoted it, I thought something was gonna 1146 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 3: come out.

But yeah, I did that, 1283 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 3: and then all these years in the middle of that, 1284 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 3: I would always think of I dealt with I also 1285 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 3: have a managing a sports business, so I manage athletes. 1286 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 3: I have NBA players that I was managing football players, 1287 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 3: managing or co asinging, managing or co aging.

That's only thirty two teams, sixty four players. 1303 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 3: Think of the March, think of March Madness, and you 1304 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 3: understand supply every year all them teams D one talented 1305 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 3: players but can't get a job. And I was like 1306 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,200 Speaker 3: we need a team in a league in New York 1307 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 3: just started. I want to start it in New York, 1308 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 3: but I want to franchise leagues in every city, you know, 1309 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 3: and then really have a stronghold on that. So that's 1310 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 3: what I did last year and went incredible. He sold 1311 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:57,600 Speaker 3: out every week short season for the attention span of disease. Right, 1312 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 3: So I did a shortened season, only a seven game season, 1313 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:03,160 Speaker 3: agame with money. I'm paying all the players, they all 1314 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 3: get paid, the coaches, everyone's getting paid. So it's a 1315 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 3: real league. I based it on leagues like the Dominican 1316 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:13,600 Speaker 3: Republic or Puerto Rico. And if you look at the 1317 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:16,040 Speaker 3: Puerto Rico League, like Bad Bunny owns a team over there, 1318 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 3: like they're pumping now the influence of a big star 1319 01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 3: and money into these teams, Puerto Rico will end up 1320 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 3: having a very big league. The problem is they need 1321 01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:28,439 Speaker 3: to accept more American players. They have to make an 1322 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 3: adjustment from their own business because only having two Puerto 1323 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,240 Speaker 3: Rico's not big enough to have really that good of 1324 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 3: players everywhere. It's just what it is. You need more 1325 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:40,519 Speaker 3: from outside to make the league more dynamic. But that's 1326 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 3: where they're right. And then I looked at all this. 1327 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:45,120 Speaker 3: I studied this, and I said, let's start a league. 1328 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 3: And I did it at a very cost deficient. Man 1329 01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 3: and I base the pay all of those games and 1330 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:53,880 Speaker 3: we only have a seven game series is eight teams. 1331 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 3: Eight teams, they all play each other once once that's over, playoffs, championship, 1332 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 3: We're done. I did a full combine. I had over 1333 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 3: five hundred players show up and you had to fill 1334 01:09:05,439 --> 01:09:08,400 Speaker 3: out a questionnaire to make sure that I know you 1335 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,839 Speaker 3: know how to play ball, you have a career somewhere. 1336 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:12,320 Speaker 3: I'm not just taking someone off the street. 1337 01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 1: That's all nice. 1338 01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:17,040 Speaker 3: I killed the YMCA yesterday. No, you have to be 1339 01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,560 Speaker 3: a real athlete. So all of these are real athletes 1340 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:23,520 Speaker 3: that played somewhere, and man, it was a huge success. 1341 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,320 Speaker 3: My next goal is now season two. We're starting in 1342 01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 3: March this year. I moved the date. I don't want 1343 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:33,640 Speaker 3: to do it in the summer, which is probably in 1344 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 3: New York is the ideal time because I don't want 1345 01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:38,080 Speaker 3: to cannibalize the street ball. I also helped build like 1346 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,720 Speaker 3: a Dytming park. Like me and King Stephen shotout Ken 1347 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:44,160 Speaker 3: stevens Man, I helped build out Dytman and now you know, 1348 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 3: I helped them out with that indictment's out of his height, 1349 01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:48,599 Speaker 3: so I understand. But I get all the players from 1350 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,080 Speaker 3: the high school up, so I have the farming system 1351 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:55,639 Speaker 3: basically everything right in my fingertips with clash, and then 1352 01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,600 Speaker 3: that's what the league's about. And then it really is 1353 01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:00,880 Speaker 3: about expanding. I've had meetings just now, shout out Jay, 1354 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 3: Will you know, Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, you know, Kendrick Perkins, 1355 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,440 Speaker 3: Fat Joe, you know, and then I got French Montana 1356 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:16,839 Speaker 3: are you.

You know, I'm talking to Nli Chopper, 1363 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 3: Chris Brown, Jay Cole, Yeah, because these I wanted.
