Speaker 7: It wasn't even like I was trying. Yeah, yeah, light work. Yeah,

60
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 7: but who'd you start to Big three with? Started it

61
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 7: with my manager. You know, he's my partner, Jeff Kuantis.

62
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 7: You've been you know, we've been working together.

63
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 3: Man.

64
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 5: So I got to be twenty five, almost twenty seven

65
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 5: years something like that, and we big sports fans, and

66
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 5: you know, seeing Kobe score sixty points in his last game,

67
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 5: I was kind of hot. I missed the game, and shit,

68
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 5: I was shooting a movie in Atlanta. My wife, you know, kids,

69
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 5: they went to the game. They was all hype. Then

70
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 5: I was like, damn, I started just a realization of

71
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 5: I can't see this dude, hoop no more like I

72
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 5: cannot go nowhere and pay to see this dude play,

73
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 5: and that's some bullshit, you know.

74
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: And so I was like, man, it's got to be

75
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 3: a way.

76
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 5: So now I'm starting to think of this idea I

77
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 5: had in the back of my head for years about

78
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 5: three on three. I used to be like, why haven't

79
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 5: they been elevated to the pro level. So now these

80
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 5: ideas are starting to come together. I'm talking to Jeff.

81
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 5: We're shooting the shit, and we're like, what would a

82
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 5: league look like? So, you know, we just bullshit, you know,

83
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 5: talking about it. We spent the whole year, like all

84
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 5: twenty sixteen talking about rules. You know, I would do

85
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 5: it like this, I would do that. I wouldn't do

86
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 5: this because you know they do that shit in the NBA.

87
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 5: Niggas don't like that, you know what I mean when

88
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 5: they get out. I would do it like this. And

89
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 5: so we just was like, damn, this is a good

90
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 5: ass idea, you know what I'm saying, Like, it's tight,

91
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 5: business models tight. So we start asking, you know, like

92
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 5: niggas we knew from the game, would y'all be down

93
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 5: with something like this, like a you know, a Clyde

94
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 5: Drexler and you know, Kenyan Martin and Chauncey Billups and

95
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 5: these dudes. Was like, oh yeah, this is tight. And

96
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 5: then that's how I just was like, man, let's.

97
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 3: Go for it.

98
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 8: You swore boy, because uh, I was gonna ask you

99
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 8: what I thought about it. The niggas old so you

100
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 8: kept a half court.

101
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:17,239
Speaker 3: But you know I played three on three full court before.

102
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 3: It's bullshit.

103
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 5: You just get a bunch of cher dude standing down

104
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 5: to throw it, do it. You're throwing the ball way

105
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 5: down there, soth'ing like nobody want to see that.

106
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 3: You know, half quarter is the way.

107
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 5: And you know, it was just about elevating it because

108
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 5: everybody liked three on three.

109
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 3: Everybody liked to play.

110
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 5: It because you get to touch the ball. You're really

111
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 5: involved in the wind, you know. So I was like, Yo,

112
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 5: this could be done if the pros buy into it,

113
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 5: Like if the you know, if the niggas that play

114
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 5: on that level buy into it and want to play,

115
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 5: how couldn't everybody else get into it?

116
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. You got the best in

117
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,239
Speaker 3: the world doing it.

118
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: You gotta ask how I feel like, you know what

119
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, coming straight out of the league to see

120
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: that as another opportunity. Like you said, a lot of

121
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: times players don't want to retire. A lot of things

122
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: take place, front office, health, injury audio above. Now you've

123
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: got an outlet still because y'all still hoop. It don't

124
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: matter the next day y'all steal basketball players. I still

125
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: want to get to it. Now have another outlet to

126
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: show your skills and live your dreams.

127
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 2: As far now, it was huge for me. It's more

128
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: like a financial thing. He brought another league. For some

129
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 2: guys when you retire, they go through this little part

130
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 2: where it's kind of a rough patch, and then he

131
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 2: kind of gave them like another outlet to even make

132
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 2: some money. But like you said, as a competitor, to

133
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: be able to get out there and hoop and then

134
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 2: still have fans in the stands, get to talk crazy,

135
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: have some of your highlights showing around the world, and

136
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 2: stuff like that. To play on TV. Still, it's a

137
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: huge opportunity. I mean, I appreciate it because it was

138
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 2: cool for me. Like y'all know me, I hoop every

139
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 2: day at home, but to get back and be on

140
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 2: TV and people talking crazy to me and stuff, I

141
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 2: wasn't used to that, so it was cool to be

142
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 2: back in that kind of and that kind of moment.

143
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: I feeling to take you and knowing your body is shattered.

144
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 3: Take that. Take that. Yeah, it's a cube bro Rock

145
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 3: with the handicap.

146
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: A lot. I got a question though, did you know

147
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: it was gonna be the Olympic sport when you was

148
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 2: like first started.

149
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 5: No, we didn't know. They Actually we just jumped out

150
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 5: there because we was like, we looked at feb and

151
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 5: we was like, nah, that's that's that's amateur basketball. You

152
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, that's the amateur version. We're gonna

153
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 5: elevate just to something better than that. And so we

154
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 5: were just moving forward. And then once we launched, I

155
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 5: think about three months later, the Olympics said, Yo, we're

156
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 5: gonna put it in in the Olympics, and you know,

157
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 5: we was like, Yo, this just gives it more credibility.

158
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm credibility for s.

159
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: And like you said, Man, we seen you coming out

160
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: talking about let cube handle that. And the thing I

161
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: don't like about it is it's very possible. Like you said,

162
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: we know the rules, we know the guidelines. Man already

163
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: has the infrastructure in place to make that happen. We

164
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: got to make that happen, man, because what they did

165
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: out there, now, we got to redeem ourselves.

166
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 5: Man, come on, man, everybody know we got better players,

167
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 5: everybody like Dawn And so I think it's pettiness, you know.

168
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 5: I think, you know, the NBA, they don't like what

169
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 5: we're doing. You know, even though Adam Silver told me

170
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 5: he did like what I was doing, and you know

171
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 5: his his his words exactly was the more basketball, the merrier,

172
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 5: you know, which we you know for you know those

173
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 5: bullshit now.

174
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 3: And so.

175
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 5: They involved with USA basketball. We've been asking since twenty twenty,

176
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 5: since they didn't even make it in Tokyo. Y'all know

177
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 5: our three or three didn't even make the Olympics qualify.

178
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 5: So we asked again. They was like thank you, but no,

179
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 5: thank you. We got it and we see what they got.

180
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they probably gonna be asking now. It's gonna

181
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 2: be in LA too.

182
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 5: Come on, man, yeah, hopefully you know, if they know

183
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 5: what's good for them, they should act and our guys

184
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 5: will play.

185
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 3: You know, our.

186
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 5: Guys been you know, they'd love to represent the country

187
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 5: in three on three.

188
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 4: Come on to you. You know what I do years ago, right.

189
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: Forty this left.

190
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 4: Oh, I'll go out there, keep your rotation. Sub let's go,

191
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 4: we get it.

192
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 8: What about the expansion cities though, like you playing on

193
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 8: expanded to more cities?

194
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 3: Like how many cities you want to be a part

195
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 3: of it? We?

196
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,599
Speaker 5: Uh, we got twelve teams. Now we're gonna sell a

197
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 5: twelve and put them in different cities. Okay, right now,

198
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 5: we got LA Miami, Houston, and Detroit. So once we

199
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 5: place these other eight, then we'll look to go to

200
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 5: sixteen teams, maybe twenty teams. Man place those in cities. Okay,

201
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 5: And and you just open up the fan base. You know,

202
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 5: we feel like we've proven the sport. People dig it.

203
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 5: Now if you connect these teams to cities and people

204
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 5: even be more invested into the league and to the

205
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 5: players into the teams, and you know, it's just it'd

206
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 5: go to a different level from there.

207
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 4: Yeah.

208
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: And that's the dope part about it, is like for

209
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: you to start your own league and that we're all

210
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: growing with the league, and a lot of people don't

211
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 1: remember like back in the NBA days before it was

212
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: super Power was on tape to let it's like to

213
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: see this league grow in real time, especially with the

214
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: players and the social media and everybody saying, you can

215
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: see that we're walking in this and now you're getting

216
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: the cities involved. You know how many people got feelings

217
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 1: and cities about and pride about their city. Is this

218
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: dope to see the evolution of this, Like you got

219
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: some of the younger players who may not have super

220
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: long careers, like the Isaiah Briscos, and somebody got the

221
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: YouTube players that playing the balls life guys. It's just

222
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: growing all this stuff together. It's dope to see it

223
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: progress like this.

224
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, we felt like, you know, three on

225
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,719
Speaker 5: three is its own sport. You know, just because you

226
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 5: was dope in five on four, Wow, that don't mean

227
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 5: you're gonna come out in the Big three and get loose.

228
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 5: You gotta you gotta have all skills set. You gotta

229
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 5: be able to pass, dribble, shoot, and defend or you're

230
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 5: gonna get exposed. So we felt like, well, we can

231
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 5: develop our own athletes. We can develop our own stars,

232
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 5: you know, like Isaiah Brisco. You know, people might not

233
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 5: have saw him in the n b A or might

234
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 5: not know how much game he got, but you know

235
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 5: he's a good player. Uh, the Kevin Murphy's of the world.

236
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 5: You know, Garland Green. You know, these dudes who really

237
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 5: making a name for theirself in the in the three

238
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 5: Big Three, in the three on three game, and they

239
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 5: might have missed their calling a little bit.

240
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 3: In the NBA that don't matter.

241
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 5: No ball and this ball and a baller is a baller.

242
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 5: And we got them on display. You know, we got

243
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,280

247
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 2: talking about the cities, Like going to Jersey this year,

248
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 2: I ain't. That was crazy, That's what I ain't had

249
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 2: that kind of feeling a long time. The crowd was amazing.

250
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: It was packed in there. And then for Briscoe, like

251
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 2: you said, for be from there and how the crowd

252
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: was behind them talking crazy.

253
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 3: It was a vibe in there. Then you don't win

254
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 3: that game though, Yeah, you know we want.

255
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 7: That's why you like this somebody man.

256
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 5: For Briscoe to be going on like that in Boom

257
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 5: Boom Boom were one.

258
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 3: For sure. This is cool. That's what it's all about.

259
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 5: It's putting these guys back in the arena, back where

260
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 5: where they belong, you know what I mean. Even to

261
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 5: see our coaches. You know, you got Gary Payton about

262
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 5: to go against the Year, even going against Cooper. You know,

263
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 5: they they been yelling at each other for since the eighties.

264
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 5: It's dope to uh to see them guys back, you know,

265
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 5: not just waving to the crowd. Hey they go Iceman,

266
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 5: you know, but they coaching and they want to win,

267
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 5: and they yelling at the reps, yelling at each other.

268
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 5: You know, it's funny shit to see Iceman cussing that

269
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 5: Rick Berry and.

270
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 3: Yeah they're still on that. You know, they won't let

271
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 3: it go.

00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 5: And Rick Mchorn and these dudes, you know, still got

273
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,680

00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 5: for us to have it in the Big Three is

276
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 5: just that cherry on top full fan.

277
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: So, like you said, you're preserving the legends and introduce

278
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: them to younger crowd, let them know. Like I said,

279
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know who Michael Cooper is,

280
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: but you should know who Michael Cooper is.

Speaker 3: On the way. What a baby on the way was

418
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 3: as that? You know what I'm saying.

419
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,359

421
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. Like sometimes you know that

422
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 5: pencil pin ship, that lawyer ship, you just gotta shown.

423
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 3: Man, he was thinking ahead of the game. You gotta

424
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 3: show him.

425
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 5: You know, we ain't We got to take it back

426
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 5: to you got to take it back to the eighties

427
00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 5: on this one.

428
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 4: We ain't readegotiation.

429
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: We was like, well ice cube, dude. But the no

430
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: part about it, like it showed how you obviously you

431
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: are serious about your art, but you were always like, Okay,

432
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: I need to be compensated for my art. While am

433
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: I having conversations if I'm showing up and doing it

434
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: every day. And it makes sense with how you progress

435
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: with everything, how you progress through music, how you progress

436
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: through art and film, and how you progressing with the

437
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: Big Three. For somebody that's starting off, what would you

438
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,640
Speaker 1: say was the most important thing that should probably lock

439
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: in no matter what they got going on.

440
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 5: Well, I think you gotta believe in yourself for show,

441
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 5: and you gotta to me, you know, not really take

442
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 5: no fun answer when you know that is the truth.

443
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 5: What you're talking about is real, what you can really

444
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 5: make it happen. You know, sometimes somebody say no today,

445
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 5: but me I go asking the same goddamn thing. Y'all

446
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 5: wait two weeks and then that's the same thing because

447
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 5: he might have just been having a bad day, or

448
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 5: you know, you give it a little time and you

449
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 5: acts again.

450
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 3: You go again because the.

451
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 5: Person you acting circumstances might change and then they you

452
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 5: might be just the person they looking for. You dig like,

453
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 5: so believe in yourself. Don't take no fun answer. You know,

454
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 5: Noah's like, Okay, two weeks, I'm gonna ask you that's again,

455
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 5: and then I might wait another two weeks and I'll

456
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 5: show that's again. Funny story you know real quick. We

545
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 5: a trip making that straight compon movie because I had to.

546
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 5: I was learning stuff that I didn't know because I

547
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 5: was on this side of town, they on that side

548
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 5: of the town, and you know, we're kind of going

549
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 5: through this in a parallel universe. So I was discovering

550
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 5: ship and they was probably discovering what we was thinking

551
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 5: on that side of the table. So it was, I said, Man,

552

Speaker 5: if I'm learning shit from this movie, everybody gonna be

553

Speaker 1: I don't, but nobody knew that don't just experience at

558
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: the same time. But to go back and look at

559
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: that you saw about you and Dre like to see

560
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,840

561
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: for y'all to be muggus the way we are now,

562
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: how is that To look back and reflect on that, sometimes.

563
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 3: It's beautiful, you know.

564
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 5: It's uh, we all just stuck to our to our convictions,

565
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 5: you know, in our own way, and you know, we

566
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 5: had a lot of opposition coming up, a lot of

567
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 5: opposition not only from you know, the music business, but

568
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 5: the government. And to see us just you know, still

569
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 5: do it our way and kind of let the chips

570
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 5: for what they may and then you know, we was

571
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 5: able to land on our feet. It's it's a pretty

572
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 5: cool story and hopefully it inspires, you know, anybody coming

573
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 5: up behind us that you know, sometimes you gotta do

574
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 5: it your way, you know, even if it's if it's

575
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 5: not popular at the time.

576
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 3: Sometimes you just gotta You're happier when you do it

577
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,479
Speaker 3: your way, whether it works or not.

578
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 5: And I've seen people make it, you know, and they

579
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 5: had pop songs and shit, they hated performed them every

580
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 5: night they was on tour, but they hated performing their

581
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 5: own songs. And so I was like, I never want

582
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 5: to be like that ever.
