Speaker 7: we gotta go to our doctor's apoint and put her
Speaker 7: a little beani on, then put her mask on, and

Speaker 7: like that every day, Like damn.
Speaker 2: You know, every day I woke up and went to
Speaker 2: bed watching her just.
Speaker 4: Like leave.
Speaker 7: And then when they tell you, you know, every time I

Speaker 7: we talk to you for a minute. I'm like fuck,
Speaker 7: oh this and listen.
Speaker 2: I'm like all right, you know.
Speaker 7: Then when I get home, they'll call me, oh you know,
Speaker 7: and I'd be like fuck. It was always something. It
Speaker 7: was always something every time I went back and forth
Speaker 7: to the hospital. So finally they was like you know what,
Speaker 7: you know, we put her on hospice and then she
Speaker 7: came home. She went to the hospital March seventh, stayed
Speaker 7: in there till the twentieth on the twentieth, they sent
Speaker 7: her home on hospice, brought the hospital bed in and
Speaker 7: the living room all that. You know, people out there
Speaker 7: who know they.
Speaker 2: Know how that works.
Speaker 7: And you know, they had like three nurses come change
Speaker 7: her and just give her her medicine and stuff. And
Speaker 7: I'm watching this and I never got to talk to
Speaker 7: her because she was just gone. And she came home
Speaker 7: on the twentieth in the twenty fourth of March, she
Speaker 7: was just breathing, real strange. So I called up the
Speaker 7: people and the was like, hey, you know, like give
Speaker 7: her this medicine. What really made me feel fucked up
Speaker 7: is the people on the phone was like, is that
Speaker 7: her breathing in the background. I was like yeah, And like,
Speaker 7: I'm gonna be honest with you, mister Vaughn. She at
Speaker 7: the end of life, so just know that. Sure enough,
Speaker 7: five thirty that morning, I heard her like choking and stuff,
Speaker 7: and then I held her arms. She was just like
Speaker 7: then she just died right there. And I'm like, fuck,
Speaker 7: she didn't even know she was home. She didn't know,
Speaker 7: she didn't know nothing. So it's like like, damn, you know,
Speaker 7: what do I do?
Speaker 5: So I really hate that you had to experience that.
Speaker 7: Man twenty years, Man, twenty some years. Every day, this is.
Speaker 5: How we can listening. You could be with her at
Speaker 5: the end, man, listen, and that meant a lot to her. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know it was good for you too. Not good
Speaker 5: for you, but it was good that y'all got to
Speaker 5: spend them final moments together.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it's oh, it was tough, man, you know.
Speaker 7: Like and every day I sit in the house, I
Speaker 7: just look at that spot, like shoes are still there,
Speaker 7: and I'm like, damn brick.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 5: I hate that we had to start off that way.
Speaker 6: Man, I seen things. You know, life is tragic, man,
Speaker 6: you know it Thos, you curve balls and I and
Speaker 6: you know, especially when you know you can consider yourself
Speaker 6: a regular nigga. I guess you go through you know,
Speaker 6: I guess you know when you seem like shit don't
Speaker 6: happen to you regular motherfuckers. You know, we we typical men,
Speaker 6: you know, Black men, raised Compton, Lone Beach. You know,
Speaker 6: it don't seem like, uh, outside of fucking neighborhood tragedies
Speaker 6: and shiit uh, we don't go through regular normal shit.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: People look at us as far as as being just
Speaker 6: normal human beings that we don't go through tragic shit,
Speaker 6: you know, but we have relatives and loved ones that
Speaker 6: go through shiit like cancer and diseases and die from
Speaker 6: other shit other than gunshots, you feel me. So it
Speaker 6: hits home when you have people that's not you know,
Speaker 6: in that in that type of you know, lifestyle, and
Speaker 6: especially when you trying to adapt from that lifestyle of
Speaker 6: being a nigga on the block and then next thing
Speaker 6: you know, you got to go through some real life
Speaker 6: tragedy of not the homeboy getting shot on the corner
Speaker 6: or doing thirty the life or some shit like that.
Speaker 6: But you know, your your woman or your children go
Speaker 6: through some shit. Man, it don't seem like that would
Speaker 6: fit for us from the walks of life we come from,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: But exactly yeah, you know what, man. And that's the
Speaker 5: thing about being black man, about being black men, is
Speaker 5: that we have to be there for one another. If
Speaker 5: you're calling somebody your friend and they going through some shit,
Speaker 5: make sure you check up on call and see how
Speaker 5: they're doing, because sometimes that means a lot. Because mental
Speaker 5: health in a black and Hispanic community is something that's
Speaker 5: just not talked about. If you got a homie that's
Speaker 5: going through something, that usually just keep it to ourselves.
Speaker 5: As Black men and Hispanic men, we're taught to compartmentalize
Speaker 5: everything and just keep it in your head instead of
Speaker 5: calling somebody and seeing how you're doing. Man, he've been
Speaker 5: telling your homie you love him. No wait till it
Speaker 5: somebody ain't here no more to give them their roads
Speaker 5: and say, hey, man, I love you like I'm gonna
Speaker 5: tell this nigga right here. We and him have been
Speaker 5: doing this show every week man for the past few years,
Speaker 5: and we don't got tight you know, we don't like
Speaker 5: to say we became friends. I remember Eight wouldn't say
Speaker 5: two words. Eight is a quiet dude. You get him
Speaker 5: on the phone, it's just j official and he gone,
Speaker 5: he on his way, not a nigga. Actually talked to
Speaker 5: me for five minutes. Yeah, you know what I'm saying
Speaker 5: for me. So it's like, I'm gonna tell all three
Speaker 5: of y'all while I got y'all in this froom, all
Speaker 5: four of y'all, including Homie Royal. You got Royalty in
Speaker 5: the building. You know what I'm saying. He over in
Speaker 5: the cut just chilling him. But I love all y'all dudes. Man,
Speaker 5: y'all my brothers. I've known fine be JJ since I
Speaker 5: was I've known JJ my bad for revealing your government,
Speaker 5: my bad since we was kids out there trying to
Speaker 5: do our you know, out there trying to do our
Speaker 5: little one too, hustling and stuff like that. But I've
Speaker 5: known him a long time. Though he's my friend. It
Speaker 5: ain't about no, it ain't never been about no game banging.
Speaker 5: Ain't never been about no making no money. That was
Speaker 5: just the homy. That's just the homie. That's my friend,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. And I just asked, man
Speaker 5: that we cut out some of the silly shit and
Speaker 5: just get back to being men. Get back to being
Speaker 5: regular men again at the end of the day. Whether
Speaker 5: you a crip blood d boy, you a motherfucker to
Speaker 5: work at the post office, you a man, that's what
Speaker 5: we all got in common, right right, So you know,
Speaker 5: speaking of men, man, what y'all think about this?
Speaker 1: Ja moran?
Speaker 4: Shit?
Speaker 5: Man, here you go again, fucking up again. First time
Speaker 5: I felt sorry for me and blamed it on his youth,
Speaker 5: you know, blamed on his youth and inexperience and just
Speaker 5: having things. I think sometimes, man, giving somebody that amount
Speaker 5: of money, dog, when they not mentally prepared for it
Speaker 5: is dangerous.
Speaker 7: Not only the money part, but it's just when you
Speaker 7: become a league player football, basketball, and you at the height,
Speaker 7: it's all type of doors that's just automatically open for you.
Speaker 7: Nobody tells, you know, everybody's like, whatever you want. And
Speaker 7: we see this a lot with they friends. It's not
Speaker 7: so much of the business of people around them. It's
Speaker 7: the homies that they off court, off field with and
Speaker 7: it never changed the same thing with him. It's like,
Speaker 7: this is the same dude who started other stuff, you
Speaker 7: know in the arenas. It's like, come on, bro, I mean,
Speaker 7: you gotta realize who you're working for when you sign
Speaker 7: the contracts. And you know, we don't know what's the
Speaker 7: stipulations in this contract. It might be some type of
Speaker 7: clause in there to say, hey man, you know we
Speaker 7: given two hundred and thirty million.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of money to get.
Speaker 5: Somebody, sure, dog. With The thing is with these league contracts,
Speaker 5: they y'all have ethics clauses in them.

Speaker 6: listening to NBA Young Boy and Gucci Man, and he
Speaker 6: listened in a little Dirk.
Speaker 1: And just like my son.
Speaker 6: My son went to motherfucking football camps and he never

Speaker 6: couple of episodes where he would grab the water pistol
Speaker 6: because you know what I'm saying, nigga, because I don't know,
Speaker 6: but it never made him want to go. I finished
Speaker 6: start claiming trag new like my dad or I'm finished

Speaker 6: influenced by the hard life that we come from because
Speaker 6: they ain't came from it. It makes them authentic. It
Speaker 6: makes them authentic to niggas in the street. Now that
Speaker 6: he will wants to be a nigga throwing up signs
Speaker 6: and carrying straps you give me, while all the niggas
Speaker 6: in the car should have been telling him, Nigga, why

Speaker 6: that shit. We didn't have the opportunities that's presented.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 6: If my father was at home every day and my
Speaker 6: mama was like, nah, nigga, we fit to take you
Speaker 6: the fucking critos and you for the start learning how
Speaker 6: to play football and be trained by the nigga ex
Speaker 6: NFL football player and all that, my influences for the
Speaker 6: block would have been gone.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 4: He had that.
Speaker 6: So I don't know Mama, daddy, whoever. I ain't the
Speaker 6: one to speak because like I said, I'm the same nigga.
Speaker 6: I was the same nigga, contracts rapping all on fucking
Speaker 6: MTV and all that, and was on the block every
Speaker 6: motherfucking day. But I came from the block. I was
Speaker 6: influent spot.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 6: Before a rap came along and sports and anything. Nigga,
Speaker 6: I'm on the block with the Bandanna and the strat
Speaker 6: dude Duce and Nigga here come the car and were
Speaker 6: going to the holding tank every week in niggas is
Speaker 6: getting shot and I yield and all that shit. That

Speaker 5: could be suspended for at least half a season. You
Speaker 5: know how much money that he is that this young
Speaker 5: man is losing.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, that's a I mean, you know when you
Speaker 7: look at the bigger picture and I go back to
Speaker 7: what the homie was saying here. You know, when you
Speaker 7: signed two rap contracts, they don't care if you're on
Speaker 7: the block.
Speaker 2: That's sales for them. We talking about corporate.
Speaker 7: Were we giving you money to stay out of trouble? Basically,
Speaker 7: this summertime you off, go chill, go on vacation. You
Speaker 7: in the car with some dudes who kind of like
Speaker 7: ride in your coattail, and you're not paying attention.
Speaker 5: And you know what's gonna happen as soon as the
Speaker 5: money is gone.
Speaker 4: Ha ha ha.
Speaker 5: You see that stupid ass nigga fucked off everything.
Speaker 7: Of course, that's what people saying now. That's what people
Speaker 7: saying now. And back to what he was saying growing up.
Speaker 7: If you're in a neighborhood and you got older homies
Speaker 7: or somebody around that, know, damn he good at playing ball,
Speaker 7: What the fuck are you doing over here? Go work
Speaker 7: on your jump shop. Get get the fuck out of here.
Speaker 7: Those are real homies that do that. Don't be around here,
Speaker 7: Go go do something. But with this kid, you know,
Speaker 7: it's like he's fascinated with something. But then you gotta understand, dude,
Speaker 7: you work for a corporation.
Speaker 2: NBA. Don't play that.
Speaker 7: They can they can snatch your whole contract, but that
Speaker 7: we don't want you here no more because it's always
Speaker 7: somebody up and coming. Of course, you superstar, but guess what,
Speaker 7: there's always a draft every year.
Speaker 2: We can find it, always a nigga to replace you
Speaker 2: dog exactly every year.
Speaker 5: And there's so many good players now in football and basketball.
Speaker 5: You got a whole bunch of niggas that they could
Speaker 5: be All Pro defensive tackles or receivers. That's working at
Speaker 5: ups right now delivering package. You're still hoping they get
Speaker 5: it the call. How many times you don't heard the
Speaker 5: Cinderella's story about the nigga that's in the Super Bowl. Man,
Speaker 5: he was just delivering beard two months ago and now
Speaker 5: he's in the super Bowl playing the game.
Speaker 1: That's all I said. I get it. Man.
Speaker 6: Let me tell you something. The de symbol it was
Speaker 6: hard to be hard. You give me, you give me,
Speaker 6: You didn't give a fuck about nothing else. Nigga, you
Speaker 6: was official if you was hard. Straight up in old days,
Speaker 6: it was hard to be hard. You got the bitches,
Speaker 6: The homies respected you, the enemies feared you.
Speaker 1: Motherfuckers.
Speaker 6: Just like I said, it was like motherfucker walking down
Speaker 6: the block and niggas be like, oh.
Speaker 1: My god, the gang bangers are coming.
Speaker 6: You get me. Niggas get out the way, you know. So,
Speaker 6: I mean, I get the influence, but I don't get
Speaker 6: the influence from a person who didn't have to walk
Speaker 6: that line. You get me, now, I get if. I
Speaker 6: don't know, you know, I don't know what his parents were.
Speaker 6: I don't know if they grew up in the projects.
Speaker 6: He had to walk the line of being a hard
Speaker 6: hood nigga first, and you know, but I see a
Speaker 6: lot of them, man, a lot of them don't make
Speaker 6: it fifteen sixteen and they in the hood hard and
Speaker 6: they trying to be whatever. I just watched the program
Speaker 6: about the kids in football in Algiers. All these young
Speaker 6: kids is dying off on the football team and shit,
Speaker 6: trying to make it to college and shit, you don't
Speaker 6: make it when you're in the hood hard.
Speaker 4: You get me.
Speaker 1: So, I don't know what his path was. But he
Speaker 1: went to college, didn't he?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Murray State.
Speaker 6: I mean you know, so evidently he had the path
Speaker 6: of you know what I'm saying, he had the path
Speaker 6: where his parents was like, nah, nigga, ain't no hanging
Speaker 6: out on the block, ain't no serving yay, ain't no toting.
Speaker 1: Straps because look at the pattern. I know it. I
Speaker 1: just did it with my son.
Speaker 4: You get me.
Speaker 6: Ain't no gang banging, ain't no motherfucking rapping and shit,
Speaker 6: ain't no motherfucker now, he listened to it, then I
Speaker 6: ain't gonna take it from him because I listened to
Speaker 6: the shit.
Speaker 1: God damn, his.
Speaker 6: Dad is on video games and on videos, you know,
Speaker 6: in movies.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 6: His dad was a gang banger, okay, but his path
Speaker 6: was different. I didn't take him around the gang bangers
Speaker 6: and the homies. He didn't have to go to comping
Speaker 6: and hang out in the hood every day like I did.
Speaker 6: You get me, its path was Okay, Nigga, three years old,
Speaker 6: you going.
Speaker 1: To sports four, sports five.
Speaker 6: Your friendships of friends are finna be built and accumulated
Speaker 6: through your sports programs. So niggas that you meet, it's
Speaker 6: gonna be on the same fucking page. You on where
Speaker 6: you're trying to get or I'm trying to get to
Speaker 6: high school, I'm trying to get to college. I'm trying
Speaker 6: to get to the NFL.
Speaker 4: Cool.
Speaker 6: That's your friend, that's your friend, that's your friend. And
Speaker 6: now everybody come to my house every weekend from six
Speaker 6: years old till now, they finna go to college. Niggas
Speaker 6: at my house every weekend. I'm seeing the pattern. Let
Speaker 6: me ask you a question. You know, usually for a
Speaker 6: kid to make it to that path, arres usually put
Speaker 6: in a lot of work. You god damn life sent
Speaker 6: them to a lot of camps.
Speaker 5: I know what, my son, I didn't have a life
Speaker 5: for the last ten years because I was always it
Speaker 5: was I gotta take him to the airport for this.
Speaker 5: They flying them down for this. I gotta go take
Speaker 5: him here for this. You know what I'm saying. So,
Speaker 5: but what happens at the point is one thing I
Speaker 5: did notice with my son is that the bigger he got,
Speaker 5: the more Yeah, I'm still listening to Pusst. But nigga,
Speaker 5: I'm all such sy can say I'm the number one nigga.
Speaker 6: The country here because I mean, it's it's it's the
Speaker 6: path of life that that we walk as young black men.
Speaker 6: It's that thin black line you give me. I just
Speaker 6: said it when a nigga handed me a contract. I
Speaker 6: was a humble kid, even th gang Bang Mom's work,
Speaker 6: pops worked at General Motors, went to church and all
Speaker 6: that shit.
Speaker 4: Nigga, this was still trying to do park. I didn't
Speaker 4: give a fuck.
Speaker 1: You get me. And then.
Speaker 6: As I grow older and trying to be more humble,
Speaker 6: But you get to a point where, I don't know,
Speaker 6: you get between eighteen and twenty five where nigga can't
Speaker 6: tell you shit.
Speaker 1: Who you can't tell me nothing.
Speaker 7: Especially when you providing, and then you didn't. You didn't
Speaker 7: gain the little heights.
Speaker 5: Tell on me nothing.
Speaker 6: I got my own car, I got my own money,
Speaker 6: I got my own crib nigga, and nothing helped me
Speaker 6: do that shit. And now that I'm still and like
Speaker 6: I said, it's different from our kids. But me, I
Speaker 6: started off gang banying shit. So once I got that,
Speaker 6: I was a nigga. Like nigga, you couldn't tell me nothing,
Speaker 6: even though my mom was present and she tried her hardest.
Speaker 6: Pops was living in another state. Whatever, I felt like,
Speaker 6: I don't give a fuck. Everything was about the neighborhood
Speaker 6: and the gang banying shit. But as I started maturing
Speaker 6: and now I got kids, I'm like, do you want
Speaker 6: a motherfucker to follow this pattern? And then when you
Speaker 6: got homies who got kids, and you see they kids
Speaker 6: or walking that line of they finna be from the hood.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, this nigga eleven years old and he out
Speaker 6: here at the school scrapping. He you know, when you
Speaker 6: start seeing that, I start going, man, you gotta change up, man,
Speaker 6: you got, but that takes maturity.
Speaker 1: Still you getting it.
Speaker 6: And like I said, even though your son, you and
Speaker 6: the wife, and like you said, I was doing this
Speaker 6: and I was doing this, it just get to a
Speaker 6: point where kids and we as young men start going like, nig,
Speaker 6: you can't tell me shit.
Speaker 7: So you think from last all these old past incidents
Speaker 7: from John Morant leading up to this new one, what
Speaker 7: do you think, Like, I mean, what's going on with you?
Speaker 2: Is it parents? Is j Homies? Is the league?
Speaker 5: I means, dog, it's him, And I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 5: something more than likely he's been doing this shit, all
Speaker 5: this dumb ass shit. But I'm gonna tell you something
Speaker 5: about these athletes, right. The curse of it the is
Speaker 5: from the time they and Pop Warner, they've been doing
Speaker 5: what the fuck they want to do. They getting away
Speaker 5: with the shit because when you were a little special,
Speaker 5: you got a tendency. People, got a tendency to turn
Speaker 5: the blind eye instead of snatching them little motherfuckers and saying,
Speaker 5: you know what, I'm gonna suspend you for two games.
Speaker 5: You fucked up. The rules apply to you like to
Speaker 5: do to everybody else. So when you grew up knowing
Speaker 5: now if you grow up. Let's say you raise your son.
Speaker 5: He allowed to slap the shit out of you and
Speaker 5: your wife whenever you say something he little is funny.
Speaker 5: Look at that baby just slapped his mama. That same
Speaker 5: little two year old is doing that bad shit. He's
Speaker 5: gonna be a fifteen year old nigga doing the same
Speaker 5: shit being a twenty five year old name. But the
Speaker 5: difference zeals later on is consequences. When you were a
Speaker 5: little kid, it looked all cute, but when you get older,
Speaker 5: it's real consequences behind that shit. So this motherfucker knows
Speaker 5: very well what he doing and what it's gonna take
Speaker 5: for him to calm down. They need to throw the
Speaker 5: hammer in his ass.
Speaker 6: Like I said, who like, I don't know. Like I said,
Speaker 6: I wasn't one. I wasn't a John Morant. I knew
Speaker 6: him in college. I watched him in college a little bit.
Speaker 6: Nigga was awesome. I thought he was a hell of
Speaker 6: a skilled basketball player. Like I said, you don't know
Speaker 6: too many dudes backgrounds, Figger, I don't know how he was.
Speaker 6: You know, we don't know how he was raids. I mean,
Speaker 6: I guess we would have to, you know, A little
Speaker 6: more investigation. More like you said about about who who
Speaker 6: mom's was who pops.
Speaker 5: Well, apparently his mom is with the bullshit because she
Speaker 5: allegedly had him and his nine friends threatened to shoe
Speaker 5: salesman after helping white customers not having her size, so
Speaker 5: she probably.
Speaker 2: Wanted to hear that as well.
Speaker 4: If you got I said you hold on, hold on,
Speaker 4: let me get through. Let me interject though some things.
Speaker 4: Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, first bull you're reading
Speaker 4: this first ball. I don't know the guy at all personally,
Speaker 4: and I'm just listening to y'all and what little bit
Speaker 4: I called from slews in in and out, sleeping on
Speaker 4: the news about further, y'all kind of missed some stuff.
Speaker 4: But y'all hit a lot of stuff. So let me
Speaker 4: see if I could tap tap tap on off a
Speaker 4: couple of things right quick, one being what's Stadi from?
Speaker 4: He's a gone man? Where Stady from? I don't know
Speaker 4: where Stadie lives in. I don't know where alleged footage
Speaker 4: came from if I can recall.
Speaker 6: And then they're Memphis, I believe, so so so so,
Speaker 6: and Memphis is an open carry state, so he's not
Speaker 6: breaking the law.
Speaker 1: No, he's not.
Speaker 4: So you getting kind of a little bit a little
Speaker 4: a little bit going too much on some stuff here,
Speaker 4: not here particularly for say so, but the social media
Speaker 4: and the industry and all on and on about he's
Speaker 4: able to own a possess a firearm, right, Okay, so
Speaker 4: he's a grown man with a firearm. And then if
Speaker 4: I'm correct, I'm not standing correct because I don't know
Speaker 4: where the these information is coming from. If it, uh,
Speaker 4: it's improving, it's the fact that's being printed that that
Speaker 4: footage was on his homeboy A right jill or whatever
Speaker 4: something live right? So now, so hold on now, fifth,
Speaker 4: we don't know if that footage was even done before
Speaker 4: it dude put it out right, could put it out
Speaker 4: accidentally or intentionally? Maybe your dumb brother cutting loose from
Speaker 4: being a part of the team. He put out their footage.
Speaker 4: I don't know if that is the case or not,
Speaker 4: him having a gun. See, I got you work with
Speaker 4: the NBA. I'm I'm been a broke nigga, poe broke
Speaker 4: nigga all my life. You understand what they'm from in
Speaker 4: the English. So he worked for the NBA, work for
Speaker 4: that team, he does, so, uh, they gonna they start
Speaker 4: going about what they what they're doing on the streets,
Speaker 4: where they who they're fucking, and they sleeping with all that. Yes,
Speaker 4: oh well, you know that's going a little too much
Speaker 4: right there. That sounds like a fed now where by
Speaker 4: spending our money? So you're getting out of control about
Speaker 4: what he doing in his life. You understand, everybody, You
Speaker 4: two guys, and you two guys are parents. You two
Speaker 4: guys also former coaches. You two guys played the game
Speaker 4: of football. Okay from correct, right, So I see where
Speaker 4: y'all coming from. I'm coming from a daddy perspective as well.
Speaker 4: He's coming from a rapper. I know you did some
Speaker 4: acting and some dancing, and I mean not dancing.
Speaker 5: But dancing. I wasn't. I'm just I could I could
Speaker 5: have been one. No, no, that's another show. We ain't
Speaker 5: got time for that to day, right, Okay. So I'm
Speaker 5: saying this is that you gotta be careful.
Speaker 4: You criticize it, but I'm not just make forty million
Speaker 4: dollars a year. Okay, hold up, that's his listen. I'm
Speaker 4: trying to make a point. We're not longing making it.
Speaker 1: Let him make you.
Speaker 6: Let him make his point, Okay, Eddie Murphy pass. Let
Speaker 6: me say something.
Speaker 4: So now I'm saying that we were talking about this
Speaker 4: man money, we're talking about what this his team is
Speaker 4: talking about whatever they talking about. They polishing him a
Speaker 4: little bit too hard, right, Okay, because he's not doing
Speaker 4: nothing illegal. It's not in that stay he is, and
Speaker 4: it's not egal t have a fire on it's not
Speaker 4: illegal to put it on gun if you're California and
Speaker 4: you're doing it and you're not a registered gun owner
Speaker 4: and you are maybe or commit the feeling that you're
Speaker 4: doing something.
Speaker 1: Different already know why the doing that?
Speaker 4: Okay, I got that, But it's the you know, I'm
Speaker 4: not in the industry exactly, I'm not. You know, that's
Speaker 4: industry ship okay, right they politicket the taking what the
Speaker 4: material they got, so you know, uh and you hit
Speaker 4: on something about uh are you feeling me now? Man zoo?
Speaker 4: Now we know playing sports in school, Pop Warner's the
Speaker 4: nigga's on the team. That's that's a little bit active.
Speaker 8: They hood, you know what, I coached a few so
Speaker 8: and now so just because you're on the football team,
Speaker 8: basketball team, baseball team, swimming, water polo or hockey or whatever,
Speaker 8: baseball You're not safe.
Speaker 6: No, no, you're not safe from this activity. No, that's
Speaker 6: that's just like I was talking. That's just like I
Speaker 6: was speaking on the show about the about the boys
Speaker 6: in Algiers, Louisiana. You're not safe, right, So you know
Speaker 6: you him, him is influencer. You've been influencing people for
Speaker 6: a long time as well as yourself, you know.
Speaker 4: What I'm saying. Still, you know, be prive before you
Speaker 4: become this producer and this and that where he was
Speaker 4: acting and this and that. Right, So you influenced you know,
Speaker 4: even when you wouldn't rapping, or when you wouldn't rapping, you.
Speaker 1: You you still influence people exact, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: And so when you got people that's on the football team,
Speaker 4: you got somebody games. Because I grew up there was
Speaker 4: homies on the team. Like it took like it took
Speaker 4: one one month, took one month of a summer before
Speaker 4: football for about six something, eight of us was claiming
Speaker 4: the set got me. You understand the compan So you're
Speaker 4: not saying a whole bunch of niggas on the team
Speaker 4: that was game bag. Y'all want to come from. So
Speaker 4: now you go to college and you bring that some
Speaker 4: of that with you over to the cuss. You're not
Speaker 4: the only one because now you got people from different
Speaker 4: states that like Steve came from different state. You understand,
Speaker 4: I mean, you know what I mean. He came with him.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying when he was pushing back then.
Speaker 4: So you now you're in a mixed bowl or other.
Speaker 4: You no longer the only fastest guy. You're not the
Speaker 4: on the smartest guy. He the on the toughest guy,
Speaker 4: ain't the best fighter. You might be one of the
Speaker 4: top four or five, but that's fifty other dudes down
Speaker 4: there that you have to deal with exactly. So they
Speaker 4: pushing what they come from. If they were from from
Speaker 4: other state, they had this and that and that. Then
Speaker 4: you coming with yours. Yeah, a mom and the daddy
Speaker 4: gonna want their kids. Bang, come on a logical, great
Speaker 4: parents don't want you involved in that. He said some things.
Speaker 4: I want to say that as well. My mom dad
Speaker 4: was Christians, and my mom was fully devoted in the church.
Speaker 4: Like she's pushing it set, but she pushing religion Jesus
Speaker 4: probably punting Acostal church lifestyle. Bage. This still pressing that
Speaker 4: today you understand that I'm coming from so, but I
Speaker 4: got into what I got into. You understand me. So
Speaker 4: I believe not to say I'm not trying to blow
Speaker 4: nobody out of water. I don't know, no he particularly
Speaker 4: if that's playing Major Spaying soccer or playing in the
Speaker 4: NBA or playing in Major League Baseball, it's affiliated or affiliated.
Speaker 4: Now I said not a member. I used affiliated, affiliated
Speaker 4: or whatever exactly or got some in the some people
Speaker 4: in their life that was from over there where they
Speaker 4: grew up at, you know, where they mama did, the grandmama,
Speaker 4: uncle lived at. So we're not gonna get away from say,
Speaker 4: some of the all them dudes in the NBA or
Speaker 4: NFL or may the baseball or hockey or whatever are
Speaker 4: not affiliated with people that was definitely not So we're
Speaker 4: not getting away from that. In the same thing with
Speaker 4: the military and the police force here, like you know
Speaker 4: with the l A County shared department where we being
Speaker 4: known there was dangs. So we're not getting it. We're
Speaker 4: not saying it don't exist. And j'a need to notice
Speaker 4: if you just a square reading anything you see on
Speaker 4: the internet and believe in everything you see on the internet,
Speaker 4: you're gonna be misled you can easily be misled because
Speaker 4: one thing of being spoken about is that whoever's politicking
Speaker 4: him understand me, wrote some stuff, said some stuff, and
Speaker 4: just you believe that truth. The real the definitements of
Speaker 4: the truth is wherever you get people to believe in.
Speaker 4: So that's somebody truth that's putting that out there.
Speaker 2: But he has he has priors though.
Speaker 4: He's doing he's not doing anything illegal. Oh got you
Speaker 4: got you got a snopper, right, illgal? But when you
Speaker 4: find me one thing, I'm just listen. You you mix it.
Speaker 4: You're Californian guys. Exactly, You're Californian guys. Oh yeah, we
Speaker 4: only speaking, oh because we got families. Well, I know
Speaker 4: I do. I don't want to microphone I got but
Speaker 4: I got feeling these you stand me. I ain't supposed
Speaker 4: to be with no firearms or get caught with one.
Speaker 4: Yes still when I'm coming from yes. So, But I
Speaker 4: don't know no former people who are nothing to go
Speaker 4: to botle gun from the guns store in the first place.
Speaker 4: I ain't never went to the gun and I got mine.
Speaker 4: I never went to the gun store about no dad.
Speaker 1: I guess it's shocking to some people.
Speaker 4: I gotta like rideing the young dog off a little
Speaker 4: bit heavy.
Speaker 6: And I and I don't And like I said, to
Speaker 6: each his own, because I was one of those niggas too, like, yeah,
Speaker 6: I got a contract from sony million dollars record contract.
Speaker 1: You was riding around and I was riding around with heaters. No, no,
Speaker 1: what you was riding. Yes, you had to have that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 4: So who was speaking at you? Right?
Speaker 1: Definitely, definitely right.
Speaker 6: And then I guess when you still want to be,
Speaker 6: you know, pulling up in the hood and dipping through
Speaker 6: the streets of Compton and Lone Beach and Watts and whatever,
Speaker 6: because you still feeling like nigga, I'm you know, so, yeah,
Speaker 6: I carry the heat everywhere I go because I knew
Speaker 6: the lifestyle what I came from. Now, I guess that's
Speaker 6: what's fucking with so many people, because everybody is trying
Speaker 6: to say he didn't come from that lifestyle. And that's
Speaker 6: the only thing I speak on.
Speaker 1: Nigga.
Speaker 6: You want to carry your heat, Like you said, if
Speaker 6: it's legal to carry your heat, you want to carry
Speaker 6: your heat, carry your heat. I not be your protection, correct,
Speaker 6: But when motherfuckers get to go and he's throwing up
Speaker 6: gang signs and all this other shit. You know, they
Speaker 6: already want to get rid of the label of the
Speaker 6: typical nigga. You get me, that's who we are. You
Speaker 6: give me all those gang banger dudes and white T
Speaker 6: shirts and hats and whatever. So it's fucking with them
Speaker 6: because to them, that's what he's representing.
Speaker 4: You get me.
Speaker 6: He's a young dude. Okay, y'all got my heat and
Speaker 6: I'm playing NBA young boy and shit. So now he
Speaker 6: wants to be a gang banger. But like you said,
Speaker 6: it ain't illegal to carry your heat. You know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying. We don't know the lifestyle he come from.
Speaker 6: We all came from that lifestyle. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: When I was fourteen, fifteen, playing football, gang banging. When
Speaker 6: I went to high school, trying to play sports, gang
Speaker 6: banging all the way into the I started rapping, I
Speaker 6: was gang banging. So I get what you saying. There's
Speaker 6: some dudes who come from the walk of life who
Speaker 6: that walk of life follows them. Once I go to
Speaker 6: high school, once I go to college, once I get
Speaker 6: to the profe, you see a lot of dudes, like
Speaker 6: you said, NBA or football and around with them. Niggas
Speaker 6: are some hood niggas you get, but nothing wrong with
Speaker 6: having a few hood niggas. Wrong definitely, and now especially
Speaker 6: if that's what you came from, you understand me, but
Speaker 6: you gotta respect that though. Exact it's about, uh, how
Speaker 6: you conduct yourself when exactly and I'm speaking from a
Speaker 6: from a personal perspective, that I have been allowed to
Speaker 6: be in certain circles. You know, I can kind of
Speaker 6: control myself for those thinks nothing to me. I kind
Speaker 6: of can control myself a lot more better than I
Speaker 6: once done before.
Speaker 4: Exactly, So I know, Hey, if I'm with certain such
Speaker 4: and such, that's how you feed his family. That's how
Speaker 4: he got his house, that's how he pay his card notes,
Speaker 4: how profied for his kids. And then then when they
Speaker 4: got downe he.
Speaker 1: Go, yeah, so I can't.
Speaker 4: I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't mess this up.
Speaker 4: No, you know what I'm saying now, Blessed to be
Speaker 4: the ones that I have been around, that allow me around.
Speaker 4: If I saw some goofball shit, they know I'm gonna
Speaker 4: say something to him because again they don't support me financially.
Speaker 4: They have blessed me. You understand me, quite a few times,
Speaker 4: not like that, so don't get it mixed up.
Speaker 1: But I have my own sourcial income.
Speaker 6: Now, if you don't have your own social income, you
Speaker 6: might turn the other cheap.
Speaker 4: Some people might do that. But let's just say that
Speaker 4: if I'm not saying that that, but he needs a
Speaker 4: person to say to him, a real one, say look,
Speaker 4: you're hot. They threaten this, they're taking this, they're trying
Speaker 4: to do this, they're trying to do and plump the brakes.
Speaker 5: Dog.
Speaker 4: Let's just say that's what I think you need because
Speaker 4: they're after you for some parent reason, and I got
Speaker 4: this the stigma. They don't want that on. They don't
Speaker 4: want that around in the NBA.
Speaker 6: You can stay wrap your ass off, but don't bring
Speaker 6: that up into the NBA or the NFL and become
Speaker 6: a public nuisance to this bigger dollar corporation.
Speaker 4: So I can that's what might need to be spained
Speaker 4: to him at a time where he's come we should
Speaker 4: not not be up on him. Uh through this internet
Speaker 4: and find out more a little bit more body and ship. Okay,
Speaker 4: it's hard to talk to a nigga that thanks here
Speaker 4: like he's some old saint nigga over here.

Speaker 6: niggas everywhere.
Speaker 1: Okay, So.
Speaker 6: Again, when I was rapping and I was riding around
Speaker 6: in cars and and fucking still associated with niggas that
Speaker 6: I was banging with, and I'm still going over there
Speaker 6: knowing I gotta pass through sections where I wasn't welcomed
Speaker 6: or probably still ain't welcomed.
Speaker 1: I probably had two heats under the seat, you get me.
Speaker 6: I know, I was signed to Sony Music, and I
Speaker 6: was doing rap videos and on tour, and you know,
Speaker 6: was rubbing shoulders with the white people, and you know,
Speaker 6: and going up in corporate offices and shit.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 6: But then when I left Sony Music in Santa Monica
Speaker 6: and I went back to the hood, the strap went
Speaker 6: back under my seat. Did I do that because I
Speaker 6: just felt like, you know, I'm MC eight now and
Speaker 6: I got an image to portray. No, I did that
Speaker 6: shit because somebody might try to dump on me around.
Speaker 2: Here, and you was doing that way before the contract.
Speaker 6: God damn mic So when I was when I was
Speaker 6: sixteen seventeen and we was pushing Mom's car off the
Speaker 6: driveway in the middle of the night.
Speaker 4: She was sleep.
Speaker 1: Dudes, dudes, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 4: Hey, let me say this please for a moment, right,
Speaker 4: I like to say that, Junior, I think you might
Speaker 4: agree with me on this. And A is a great
Speaker 4: candidate speaking from a young man to start touching money
Speaker 4: legally at a young age so he can really collate
Speaker 4: with with the young brother, the basketball and baby guy.
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna say this.
Speaker 4: As as a former active gang member, I want you
Speaker 4: to all everybody's in that age range and uh that's
Speaker 4: in positions like that, you'll need to hear what I'm
Speaker 4: about to tell you.
Speaker 1: When you need your group of people that you.
Speaker 4: Got around you, y'all, y'alla, learn how to move. Yes,
Speaker 4: in a cord with me. Uh, there's a couple of
Speaker 4: guys you can go look at uh look at the

Speaker 4: Uh Henderson. He'll tell you how you should be moving
Speaker 4: in this industry. You're not saying, Andrew, I'm talking about
Speaker 4: the professor. It's a certain way you need to move
Speaker 4: and you should not. Uh you know, net folks know
Speaker 4: you got one on you, of course got me whoever
Speaker 4: this man or it's gonna be a dune him, particularly
Speaker 4: any of those in this and it should not never

Speaker 4: what's going on? I'm okay, But it's a word you
Speaker 4: should know how to move when you're out about in
Speaker 4: certain situations. Use this anybody else who don't know, and
Speaker 4: those who coming up don't get caught like this. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: but you know how to move with you. But yeah,
Speaker 4: no means stay quiet.
Speaker 6: If if were going to the gas station around the
Speaker 6: corner from the mansion, we probably don't need the heat.
Speaker 6: If if if we finn Foe deep up and we
Speaker 6: finna go to the picnic in the hood, then.
Speaker 1: We probably need the heat up. Got it?
Speaker 6: Like you said, you gotta learn how to move according
Speaker 6: And I'm going to a fucking If I'm on my
Speaker 6: way to the game at the arena and I'm playing
Speaker 6: the night, I probably.
Speaker 2: Don't need They got security there.
Speaker 6: So you have to learn what your situations is. And again,
Speaker 6: like you said, nobody know how Joah grew up. I
Speaker 6: don't know if he grew up in the hood, the projects,
Speaker 6: the parents, was with the business, like you said, if
Speaker 6: Mon's was with the business and she telling nine homies,
Speaker 6: whatever that means. Like I said, Memphis was no place
Speaker 6: to the fuck with. They was hard.
Speaker 4: I've got you, but still but they still. You gotta
Speaker 4: hot and maneuver when you're out about playing your games
Speaker 4: or that's not just the way you move that you
Speaker 4: don't disturb the waves in the water. But people know
Speaker 4: what's going on with you. And you got there for
Speaker 4: a reason. There's people need you need to have up
Speaker 4: there for particular reasons.
Speaker 6: And not to say you're a plunk or anything or whatever.
Speaker 6: But you gotta learn at this at this stage, you
Speaker 6: gotta learn how to avoid situations where you need a
Speaker 6: fucking heat gotcha. And you gotta like, like, Okay, y'all
Speaker 6: from west and there's a party in the east, maybe
Speaker 6: we may not go to the party in the east today.
Speaker 4: Get me.
Speaker 6: You got to learn how to and not to say
Speaker 6: that you're a punk or a mark or anything like that.
Speaker 1: But that's the way I learned.
Speaker 6: I learned, like, damn, why I gotta strap up with
Speaker 6: three four heats in the trunk when I could.
Speaker 1: Just not go to that shit tonight.
Speaker 6: You get me like, hey man, they doing the video
Speaker 6: over here or at the club here tonight, so and so,
Speaker 6: and I hear so and so is supposed to be
Speaker 6: showing up. You automatically like, oh, we gotta we gotta
Speaker 6: heat up. But I start learning, oh is that right?
Speaker 6: Oh well, I check y'all niggas tomorrow. Then I'll holler
Speaker 6: at y'all.
Speaker 2: That's the aspect.
Speaker 6: That's what I start learning how to avoid, Like like damn,
Speaker 6: my nigga, we're finna go to the store. You got
Speaker 6: you got the heat on you because we're finna go
Speaker 6: to the store. And they said, we need not go
Speaker 6: to that store. Maybe we can go to this store
Speaker 6: over here to where you ain't got to give you
Speaker 6: all the number.
Speaker 5: One reason why, number of reason why Jammarant lost thirty
Speaker 5: nine million dollars at the feeling to make an All
Speaker 5: NBA team.
Speaker 2: That's part of his contract.
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying, is a part of his contract.
Speaker 5: He would have earned an additional amount of money. That's
Speaker 5: a substantial amount of money to lose out on. So
Speaker 5: just from the business aspect, fuck every fuck what we
Speaker 5: think right man? Me running around with these straps, it's
Speaker 5: causing me to lose income. That's the reason why I'm
Speaker 5: playing basketball. Other than that, he would just be in
Speaker 5: a park in South Carolina someone playing basketball. You can
Speaker 5: go play basketball if you love basketball. They didn't like football,
Speaker 5: y'all just can't get a bunch of old niggas together
Speaker 5: and say let's go play a game tackle football. You
Speaker 5: know what I mean exactly, Basketball you can play that.
Speaker 5: So he's playing basketball NBA because he's making money and
Speaker 5: gets to compete at the highest level. If he wants
Speaker 5: to continue to earn that amount of money and get
Speaker 5: to play the game of basketball at the highest level,
Speaker 5: he needs to stop doing dumb shit.
Speaker 7: And see when you mentioned the part about business. Here's
Speaker 7: the thing about athletes. When we sign you to a contract,
Speaker 7: you're marketable. If they don't see you, we can't get
Speaker 7: We can't market you. So when we need you to
Speaker 7: be at the All Star Games, we need you to
Speaker 7: wear these shoes that we're.
Speaker 2: Paying you to wear.
Speaker 7: But if you're doing dumb shit out in the world
Speaker 7: and get suspended and you got all this naggive publicity,
Speaker 7: nobody's going to see you. And then NBA is overseas now,
Speaker 7: so we want them to also buy the shoes that
Speaker 7: we're paying you to wear, your.
Speaker 2: Jerseys, all that stuff. It's all business.
Speaker 7: If you're not marketable, why are we giving you all
Speaker 7: this money for you not to play?
Speaker 5: And I will say this about the NBA. As far
Speaker 5: as the sports leagues go, the NBA is the most
Speaker 5: friendly to African Americans. Young African Americans. Like all the
Speaker 5: Brothers start getting the tattoos. I never heard nobody trip
Speaker 5: the Brothers wanted to start dressing a little different instead
Speaker 5: of dressing up in suits. They start letting them do
Speaker 5: a little bit more right, So it's a very player friendly.
Speaker 2: League, you think, Sir Alan Iverson.
Speaker 5: You know to where you think about it With the NFL,
Speaker 5: the NFL wants you. They care about that shield. You
Speaker 5: come out there doing some dumb shit, you want to
Speaker 5: be there because there are more football players than they
Speaker 5: could ever use. That's why they could do whatever they
Speaker 5: want to. The motherfuckers. That's why they just now starting
Speaker 5: to get the guaranteed contracts to where Mother the brothers
Speaker 5: is getting the twenty and thirty million. But when I
Speaker 5: tell you about them contracts, believe me, it's a whole
Speaker 5: bunch of morality clauses than the motherfucker.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they caught doing this, We.
Speaker 5: Got a right to take this back if you get
Speaker 5: caught doing this. We don't have to give you that.
Speaker 5: So yeah, if you out there doing dumb shit like this,
Speaker 5: I'm not saying don't protect yourself. I would never say that.
Speaker 5: I think every man, I think it's all right if
Speaker 5: it's a marriage. Don't get me started on gun rights.
Speaker 5: I think every American in this country should be able
Speaker 5: to carry a pistol. Yeah, but you but that. But you,
Speaker 5: according to you, that's dumb shit carring the piss. No
Speaker 5: I'm saying him, I'm not making forty million dollars a year.
Speaker 4: Nbeah.
Speaker 5: He I ain't saying he can't carry a pistol. But
Speaker 5: you're gonna have the money. Bringing no law again.
Speaker 4: But check this out. You to break your laws from
Speaker 4: the point. So you're gonna hear you. But you one
Speaker 4: of them niggas that just go fuck it.
Speaker 5: The homie.
Speaker 4: They doing the wrong.
Speaker 5: Nigga don't want out like the mama that is always
Speaker 5: crying about her baby. He like my baby. If for
Speaker 5: no reason this this nigga been robbing niggas in the neighborhood.
Speaker 5: Nigga been a minutes to the neighborhood for years. But
Speaker 5: the mama up.
Speaker 4: There crying, oh my baby.
Speaker 5: They're doing them so bad. But little bootoo, don't bust
Speaker 5: the motherfuckers in their head. Don't rape bitches.
Speaker 4: Don't get all kind of shit. You just got a
Speaker 4: whole story.
Speaker 2: Oh, I have a I have a I.
Speaker 7: Have a question for for YouTube. Gentlemen, y'all both have sons.
Speaker 7: That's athletes. They that y'all know and and they both
Speaker 7: have sons who are prominent, who who eventually will go
Speaker 7: to the league. Now, okay, so you first ate knowing
Speaker 7: you've been watching sports, play sports, but knowing the type
Speaker 7: of problems that's out there. Once they get that NBA
Speaker 7: contract or NFL contract, what's the type of conversation you
Speaker 7: will have with your son.
Speaker 6: Don't fuck it up, don't fuck it off. It's easy.
Speaker 6: It's easy to fuck it off. I mean, I don't
Speaker 6: want to be a a a motherfucking preacher. Like, hey man,
Speaker 6: I'm telling you if you don't this WoT you won't
Speaker 6: because at the end of the day, motherfucker gonna do
Speaker 6: what the fuck they want to do.

Speaker 6: Now? No one was in sure. Yeah, even with the
Speaker 6: dudes he hang out with. Yeah, all his dudes he
Speaker 6: hanged with, they're all. They're all. They're all quest for
Speaker 6: for sports and being better is more dominant than the
Speaker 6: street life because they could see that from me firsthand.
Speaker 6: So you could detect it. Yeah, I can all the
Speaker 6: detect niggers who you know, smoking weed, gang banging with
Speaker 6: the passion. No, No, because I did it already. You
Speaker 6: get me.
Speaker 5: You didn't do that.
Speaker 2: I got you.
Speaker 6: My son is home every night every day. If he
Speaker 6: ain't at home, he at work. If he's not at work,
Speaker 6: he's at a sports for a complex working out. There's
Speaker 6: no There was no.
Speaker 1: Like with my mom.
Speaker 6: When I walked out the door, she know where the
Speaker 6: fuck I was. When my mom went to work at
Speaker 6: eleven o'clock at night, I was in the hood until
Speaker 6: she got off work at seven in the morning. Get me,

Speaker 6: I'm over there with sacks of ya and straps on me,
Speaker 6: strawberries and hood rats and paying niggas for cluck cars
Speaker 6: and ship to go to the Vermont drive in and everything.
Speaker 6: So but with the very much I not to say
Speaker 6: that my parents. My parents loved me, you know, I
Speaker 6: got that sense. But I had freedom as a as
Speaker 6: a young nigga. You get me. I was influent by
Speaker 6: the neighborhood. I wasn't influenced by the NFL or the NBA.
Speaker 6: I was already a nigga feeling like that, ain't me, nigga.
Speaker 6: My motherfucking role models is big ya yo down the
Speaker 6: block with the with the with the villain with Nigga

Speaker 6: back of my nigga with the big K five Blazer
Speaker 6: Nigga with him with my influences, I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't like with my son.
Speaker 6: From the time he was able to, you know, start
Speaker 6: developing his childhood brain, it was sports or Nigga, you're
Speaker 6: going to play soccer, Nigga, you're going to play baseball.
Speaker 6: There was no free time for him to go. There
Speaker 6: was no idle time for him to you know. And
Speaker 6: then even when he you know, started seeing the boys
Speaker 6: in the hood movies and seeing pops and minister society
Speaker 6: and won't he won't. It was still nigga, we got
Speaker 6: practiced today at five o'clock. Niggas practiced today at five o'clock.
Speaker 6: It was never he he didn't have free time. Not
Speaker 6: just saying that parents don't have to, but it's hard
Speaker 6: and get me. I turned down tours and shows because
Speaker 6: I gotta make sure that this Nigga's path is not
Speaker 6: my path, said, I do not want to be going
Speaker 6: to motherfucking lp and picking my son up from jail
Speaker 6: and then having to go to the motherfucking marl and
Speaker 6: pick him up because he done shop lifted and some.
Speaker 1: I didn't want that.
Speaker 6: And then that's why I moved to the area where
Speaker 6: it was whites and blacks and Asians.
Speaker 1: You did me, and then so and then.
Speaker 6: Like I said, I got to from the time it
Speaker 6: was time to start having friends, I'm right here.
Speaker 5: Who is that?
Speaker 1: Who is that?
Speaker 6: You get me? I knew all his friends. Oh his
Speaker 6: friend was a little white boy across the street who
Speaker 6: had the swimming pool. That was one of his friends.
Speaker 6: And then when they go to the fifth and sixth grade,
Speaker 6: Oh his friends is the two dudes who play on
Speaker 6: the football team with him every weekend.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 6: And then when it's seventh eighth grade, who is his friends?
Speaker 6: Oh that nigga stabbed my house every night. That nigga
Speaker 6: stabbed my house every night. That Nigga stabbed his house
Speaker 6: every night. Then I checked the resumes. Who's the fucking parents,
Speaker 6: where's his mama from, where's daddy from?
Speaker 1: They from the hood. They from La, what set did
Speaker 1: his daddy claim or whatever?
Speaker 2: That's real shit.
Speaker 6: I did all that shit because I wanted to know
Speaker 6: the type of people that when he's going over people's houses,
Speaker 6: I want know is his dad over there claiming blood?
Speaker 6: Is he claiming crip? Is he around there just like
Speaker 6: dumb as fuck is you know? I wanted to know
Speaker 6: that shit. And then when you meet the parents, Oh,
Speaker 6: if parents work at the aviation company, his mom's a realtor.
Speaker 6: Oh shit, his father's a fucking policeman. His mom's are
Speaker 6: fucking so got to run none of that.
Speaker 1: You give me.
Speaker 6: So now when it's time, when it's time for you know,
Speaker 6: to cut the string a little bit. Oh, we want
Speaker 6: to go to the mall, or we want to go
Speaker 6: to the movies, or we want to go to the
Speaker 6: Who is he hanging with? Oh he's still hanging with John,
Speaker 6: Sam and Tom from the football team from the last
Speaker 6: eight years.
Speaker 4: You get me.
Speaker 6: I'm just seeing this nigga parents and going over their
Speaker 6: house every fucking weekend for eight years and football parties
Speaker 6: and everything. There is no other influence. Now when they
Speaker 6: start getting older, shit start changing, you know. Now you
Speaker 6: hear him in the room listening to a rap music
Speaker 6: and YouTube is on the TV, and you hear the influences,
Speaker 6: and then they even might come to you every now
Speaker 6: and then be like, Dad, don't want a rap, you
Speaker 6: give me?
Speaker 1: I got that too.
Speaker 6: It ain't rapping, and not because he don't couldn't have
Speaker 6: the talent to rap. But I'm thinking, like, what did
Speaker 6: I go through in this music fucking business? I want
Speaker 6: to see that for him? Or would I'd rather a
Speaker 6: motherfucker be a normal human being and have a nine
Speaker 6: to five and make one hundred two hundred thousand a
Speaker 6: year and don't have to stress about who don't like
Speaker 6: him or who says video suck or fuck him just
Speaker 6: because he's the next new rapper. And I'm thinking that's
Speaker 6: gonna bring my motherfuckers. I'm looking at the rap shit nowadays,
Speaker 6: niggas beef and just putting out records and don't even
Speaker 6: know each other.
Speaker 1: Did I want my son to go through that? I said, nah.
Speaker 6: So the influence became let's push sports and now now
Speaker 6: my my My My ship to him was, Okay, I'm
Speaker 6: gonna hire you a trainer. I'm gonna sing you here,
Speaker 6: I'm gonna sing you there. So I started getting more
Speaker 6: interest in making his interest become hmm. And then he
Speaker 6: starts saying, Hey, I'm pretty good, I'm pretty good. I'm
Speaker 6: pretty good. Well, I'm not average and I'm not regular,
Speaker 6: and you you adapted that. So as a parent, that's
Speaker 6: what I gave to him. Like I said, I would
Speaker 6: turn down shit, nigga, I turned down being in the
Speaker 6: fucking Alright video with Kendrick Lamar. He called me for
Speaker 6: fucking four days straight and I told him I could
Speaker 6: not do it because I was out of town. They

Speaker 6: years of my life. I dedicated nothing to my son
Speaker 6: in Little League sports, Like I said, I would turn
Speaker 6: down shows, and when niggas would call me for shows,
Speaker 6: I would tell them when is the show Friday night?

Speaker 6: and some niggas have to build that.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: You see my nigga on the court slamming, going up
Speaker 6: on niggas. You know niggas like staring niggas down. You
Speaker 6: know you hard. And to the fans in the stands
Speaker 6: that nigga hard.
Speaker 5: You get me.
Speaker 6: So you gotta watch your influences and watch you know,
Speaker 6: and and still your homies is your homies. If they've
Speaker 6: been with you from the dirt and the mud, then great,
Speaker 6: It's fabulous that you can take them on the rid
Speaker 6: because let's face it, a lot of them niggas won't
Speaker 6: go nowhere. A lot of them still be stuck in
Speaker 6: the hood. You gonna take them niggas places that they
Speaker 6: ain't never been. They gonna ride in cars and eat
Speaker 6: food and see bitches and top asses that they would
Speaker 6: have never done in their whole lifetime. So shots out
Speaker 6: to you for bringing the homies up and showing them
Speaker 6: another side of life. But you are at the point
Speaker 6: to where you got the tread then you gotta tread
Speaker 6: light because when the white motherfucker signed in your check
Speaker 6: and they want to keep up the image, then you
Speaker 6: have to follow that path.
Speaker 1: My nigga, you know what I'm saying. Tell a nigga
Speaker 1: to keep his livee off.
Speaker 6: When y'all in the car, you give me you wanna
Speaker 6: put you wanna roll around with a strap today. Maybe
Speaker 6: it's not the business of the internet to know we
Speaker 6: riding with.
Speaker 5: The hit today.
Speaker 6: You get me.
Speaker 5: It's some dude that don't came out and said, because
Speaker 5: I guess he jam Moran throwing up his hood. He said,
Speaker 5: he gotta pay for that.
Speaker 6: That's a dude, I think, some dude in Memphis. But
Speaker 6: we'll speak on that. On another side. We're gonna kill
Speaker 6: this man. We gonna we're gonna kill this Jamaran alone. Hey,
Speaker 6: real quick man, eight, I want to ask you something,
Speaker 6: so good friend of mine, dude, you know it's a
Speaker 6: friend of the show, Linzo Williams. He called me this
Speaker 6: and he was kind of upset because I don't know
Speaker 6: how you just hearing it. I don't even remember what
Speaker 6: episode was that on. What episode was that on? Brian,
Speaker 6: It was a long time. I guess he's just not
Speaker 6: getting wind.
Speaker 5: He said. Man, I'm very offended. The eight called the
Speaker 5: very people that put him on that. He said that
Speaker 5: our music was wagon, the World Class Record cruit this
Speaker 5: and this.
Speaker 4: So I was gonna call Lonzo, Oh how you said
Speaker 4: the world Record crew?
Speaker 1: Do you call it?
Speaker 6: No, you call him on the next episode. I'm gonna,
Speaker 6: I'm gonna, i'mna address this and we're gonna deal with it.
Speaker 6: On the next right. It was the name of the building.
Speaker 5: God.
Speaker 1: I never said fuck the Wrecking Crew.
Speaker 4: I never.
Speaker 6: My point is to not want to say disrespect the
Speaker 6: four fathers of whatever is believed to be. But when
Speaker 6: people asked me about the foundation of West Coast rap music,
Speaker 6: it was fucking corny, straight up.
Speaker 1: You're talking about before you or while you was doing
Speaker 1: before me.
Speaker 6: I'm talking about when you used to have to listen
Speaker 6: to people like Bobby, Jimmy and the Critters and when
Speaker 6: you you know, Wrecking Crew, I listen. I bought Doctor
Speaker 6: Dre Surgery records. Were they an influence of being a
Speaker 6: hip hop artist to me?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 6: What they were influenced to me as was being a
Speaker 6: fucking DJ. They were not influential to me as rap artists.
Speaker 6: They were influential to me as DJs and musicians. I
Speaker 6: never listened to Wrecking Crew as a sign of this
Speaker 6: would be the paveway of West Coast hip hop, because
Speaker 6: look what West Coast hip hop is now. He wants
Speaker 6: to say that without him there would be no m
Speaker 6: C eighth.
Speaker 2: Okay, so so so so.
Speaker 6: I addressed this without without Linzo and that type music,
Speaker 6: what they have still been in NC eight I wasn't
Speaker 6: influenced by the fucking recon Crew. I was influenced by
Speaker 6: East Coast rap. I was influenced by people like UTFO
Speaker 6: and just Ice. I was influenced by people like Rock
Speaker 6: Sanne Charte and Sparky D, Bobby, Jimmy.
Speaker 1: And the Critters.
Speaker 6: And Lonzo did not fucking influence me to become a
Speaker 6: hip hop artist. Toddy T and Mixed Master Spade is
Speaker 6: what influenced me. Lonzo and them knew how to get
Speaker 6: motherfucking record deals. That's how they knew how to do
Speaker 6: because us, as young, gang banging, ass hustling drug dealers,
Speaker 6: we didn't know shit about music industry. You couldn't have
Speaker 6: told me shit about how to put out a record
Speaker 6: that came from Easy It did not come from the
Speaker 6: Wrecking Crew. Did the Recing Crew start as musicians on
Speaker 6: the West Coast? Sure they did. They sure did. And
Speaker 6: like I said, did I go spend my money on
Speaker 6: Doctor dre Surgery twelve inch records?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: I did. Did I buy Turn Off the Lights? No?
Speaker 1: I did not.
Speaker 6: You get me so I understand where he's coming from saying,
Speaker 6: you know, I'm one of the dudes who was a pioneer.
Speaker 6: First of all, you didn't even like hip hop. You
Speaker 6: didn't like rapp Gates the rap it was told in
Speaker 6: the movie. You hated it. You hate it. When Dre
Speaker 6: and Easy Stuck stepped up and was wanting to come
Speaker 6: with the street shit, you wanted them to continue with
Speaker 6: the dance shit. You know, the sequence robes and the
Speaker 6: DJ in at the parties, which was for the record,
Speaker 6: Easy of that, but go Ahead, which.
Speaker 1: Was which was.
Speaker 6: Like I said, a lot of our music or influence
Speaker 6: on the West Coast was electro funk dance music.
Speaker 1: You get me a lot of that music.
Speaker 5: You know what the West Coach was when I first
Speaker 5: came out. That's strangely saying that right now, real talk.
Speaker 4: No no, no, no, I don't want to say nothing,
Speaker 4: but it's something I've got going on. Is in line
Speaker 4: with what he's saying.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 6: When I when I was a youngster, like I said,
Speaker 6: I heard, I heard parody records. You give me Russ
Speaker 6: Parr and there making parody records. Look at all these
Speaker 6: roaches off of look at all these rumors.
Speaker 1: You know, we had funny rap rap records.
Speaker 6: We didn't have niggas who were serious about musical shit until.
Speaker 1: King T came with Payback to Mother.
Speaker 4: He's talk about put out an album, not the mixed No.
Speaker 6: I'm talking about the straight twelve inch where niggas wasn't
Speaker 6: even putting out albums of rap.
Speaker 1: You had King T, you had.
Speaker 6: Iced Tea with six in the Morning, okay, and then
Speaker 6: you had the fucking TDK tapes with Todd and Nicked
Speaker 6: Master Spade.
Speaker 1: Now that's what you got.
Speaker 6: That swhere, you got your daily dose of gangster rap music.
Speaker 6: Lonzo and them did sequence dance music. It didn't have
Speaker 6: anything to do with hip hop. But because he had
Speaker 6: in the palm of his hand Doctor Dre and all
Speaker 6: of that, he felt like, you know, I am the godfather. Hey,
Speaker 6: if you want to take that, you want to take that.
Speaker 6: I ain't got no disrespect to you. But don't come
Speaker 6: at me and say shit like you disappointed, because I'm
Speaker 6: disappointed that our foundation was fucking look at all these
Speaker 6: roaches and fucking Doctor Dre, Doctor Dre. You give me,
Speaker 6: I mean, but that was the music that they wanted
Speaker 6: to push. That was the music they wanted to put
Speaker 6: you damn right. It was on the radio record crew
Speaker 6: and before you turn off the light and all that shit.
Speaker 6: But it wasn't my influence, because if it was, I'd
Speaker 6: be doing music like that today. When I started, I
Speaker 6: got influenced because I used to buy twenty dollars TDK
Speaker 6: tapes of motherfucking Todd rapping off of Rapping Duke talking
Speaker 6: about the Battle Ram. I used to hear him in
Speaker 6: Spade rapping off a big mouth, you know, off of
Speaker 6: the dope house. I used to hear the HUDINEDI the
Speaker 6: freaks come out at night. I used to hear the
Speaker 6: clucks come out at night.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 6: That's why I learned how to be MC eight and
Speaker 6: counts most warned because I had a nigga in my
Speaker 6: neighborhood who was making tapes telling us about Darryl Gates
Speaker 6: in the Battle Ram and raids and who was the
Speaker 6: motherfucking Strawberry and trag new Park and who got raided
Speaker 6: and who got their dough kicked in. And that's where
Speaker 6: I learned how to be MC eight. That's it didn't
Speaker 6: come from the wrecking crew.
Speaker 2: Well, see, that's.
Speaker 7: That's an individual statement, because this is what influenced you,
Speaker 7: not that, So that's not saying as a whole you're
Speaker 7: not saying, Hey, that's not what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: It's individually with you.
Speaker 6: I'm not saying like, fuck the Pioneers or Coast right.
Speaker 6: He feels I'm saying it because I'm saying that our
Speaker 6: music wasn't what it is designed today. I mean, today
Speaker 6: we got all kinds of varieties. But back then, when
Speaker 6: you listen to East Coast beginning rap and you listen
Speaker 6: to West Coast beginning rap, we was on some funny shit.
Speaker 1: We was on some parody joke shit.
Speaker 7: And it's facts to that because you can always go YouTube.
Speaker 6: And go back to YouTube and go back to the
Speaker 6: early seventies and eighties, and like I said, on Man,
Speaker 6: it was right there. So like, I don't turn around
Speaker 6: and put me in a category of saying I'm trying
Speaker 6: to disrespect the pioneers because I don't disrespect Todd Master Spade.
Speaker 6: I don't disrespect Easy, I don't disrespect it. I never
Speaker 6: goo ah fucking niggas. I don't care what they was doing.
Speaker 6: Uh you know, those were my influences, like I said,
Speaker 6: And in respect to the wrecking crew and what they
Speaker 6: had to go through to to.
Speaker 1: Be able to go fuck this shit, you get me.
Speaker 6: A shout out to niggas like Dre and Easy because
Speaker 6: they wanted to try something different when there was a
Speaker 6: motherfucker telling them now we should do this type of
Speaker 6: shit only so you.
Speaker 1: Know, and and and that.
Speaker 6: On that note, a lot of them niggas did have
Speaker 6: they hand and I and I put it just like this,
Speaker 6: if they probably would have been straight up with niggas
Speaker 6: and been real and been ready and straight off the back,
Speaker 6: they probably would they had they hand and a lot
Speaker 6: of shit today. But you know when when shit don't
Speaker 6: go right, and you know, when you feel niggas talents
Speaker 6: and you feel they motherfucking shit ain't worth, you know,
Speaker 6: whatever shit goes crooked. But like I said, teach me
Speaker 6: anything about who the person I am today. They didn't
Speaker 6: influence me. That's becoming an artist. No, that came from
Speaker 6: New York. And I tell niggas every day in all
Speaker 6: kind of interviews. My influences came from New York. That's
Speaker 6: how I started listening to rap.
Speaker 5: Now, most people's influence came from New York because it
Speaker 5: really wasn't no rep nowhere else, No.
Speaker 6: If you were if you grew up on the West
Speaker 6: Coast seventies eighties, a lot of our music was dance,
Speaker 6: electro funk influenced. You know, they go to the parties.
Speaker 5: You know. I'm gonna tell you what a lot of
Speaker 5: people don't know, bro, is that the actual creator of
Speaker 5: Miami Base. The whole dance music that we was on
Speaker 5: that went to Miami blew Up was really La music
Speaker 5: because mister Mix was their producer. Mister Mix was from Riverside, California.
Speaker 6: There used to listen to all that shit down here,
Speaker 6: all that all that Electric Kingdom and Siberian Nights and
Speaker 6: Tour de France, and that's all we gave a fuck about.
Speaker 6: Have to say ship on the record. All you had
Speaker 6: to do was be breathing and it had to be
Speaker 6: a good beat.
Speaker 4: Nigga.
Speaker 6: We was bumping that ship here because our foundation of
Speaker 6: music was like it's like we came out.
Speaker 1: It's like we got stuck in.
Speaker 6: The disco era with our music, but let's get the
Speaker 6: fuck about it. The turning point was the turning point
Speaker 6: for me is when like I said, I went to
Speaker 6: New York, I went to Mississippi on a summer vacation
Speaker 6: and I heard my cousin playing Sucker m Seas and
Speaker 6: I was like what the fuck is that? And he
Speaker 6: was like, you ain't ever y'all gotta run demc down there.
Speaker 6: And I heard ship like freaking Zoids by Midnight Star.
Speaker 6: And then I started hearing like fucking pack Jam by
Speaker 6: the fucking Johnson Crew. And then I heard fucking Utfo,
Speaker 6: I heard just Ice, I heard fucking ultraumatic MC's. I'm like,
Speaker 6: these niggas is rap rapping. I heard Sugar Heel Gang
Speaker 6: and fucking I'm like, no, these niggas is rap rapping
Speaker 6: like they ain't like back at home, while all you
Speaker 6: here is niggas scratching and and breathing on the mic.
Speaker 6: Like these niggas is actually rapping. So that's what influenced me.
Speaker 6: And then when I got back to motherfucking the city.
Speaker 6: When I got back to the city, you know, I
Speaker 6: ran right the VI P and Compton on motherfucking Compton Boulevard,
Speaker 6: Nigga right across the street from Humphreys drug Store and Nigga.
Speaker 6: I brought my first twelve inch Nigga fly Girl Nigga.
Speaker 4: That was rapping.
